New YORK, February 7th.-In his inter
view last night regarding Sullivan, Pat
Sheedy said :" / think Mitchell intends to
fight Sullivan because he thinks the big
fellow is gone, bnt he'll find out his mis-
take. Sullivan is attending strictly 10 bust
ness, and will be in the finest shape he ever
was in his life. Mitchell is very smart
fellow, but no match for Sullivan. l think
Sullivan could whip Mitchell, Smith and
kilrain without leaving the ring. Mitchell
is as good as either Smith or Kilrain, and o
far better boxer than Smith. Sullivan will
whip him if the fight comes-dollars to
pennies"
