called on the big fellow and offered him
guarantee that the amount would not be
less than 81 500. Sullivan declined this
offer just as brutality as he did the first.
Low SORT OF TASTES.
"This will give you an idea of his bust
ness ability. Sullivan is a man with the
lowest sort of tastes. 1t was difficult to
prevent him from gratifying his low de-
sires. That he is giving full play to them
now is clear, from the character of the
neighborheod which he is frequenting in
Chicsgo. As for rum, why. he loves it.
He is stubborn brute, and it is mighty
hard thing to COMPEL him to do anything
that he doesn't want to.
This talk about his being tempted to
drink by friends is bosh. He drinks in or
der to satisfy his craving for liquor, and
not because be is good fellow"
HE SHOULD HAVE GONE TO CANADA.
Mr.. Muldoon was asked regarding his
statement that Sullivan was in Canada.
THAT was made in good faith, he replied,
" and if Sullivan had an ounce OF sense or
honor he would be there now. When /
left him, the address of man near Detroit
was given, and it was understood that be
would go directly there. / assured him
that he would be well taken care of, and
that he could remain there and get thor
ougly rested and permit his hands to
grow strong again. He promised faithfully
to go. He was to send me a telegram as
soon as he arrived there. l have been
waiting here to get that telegram, and the
first thing heard is that he is acting the
drunken loafer again in Chicago. My in
terest in him ended when the sponge was
thrown up in Kilrain's corner last week,
but l was still anxious to be friend TO
him. Disinterested friendship is some
thing that Sullivan doesn't know anything
about"
Mr.. Muldoon was asked concerning the
stake -money-what share OF it Sullivan
would probably receive.
His share will be mighty small" was
the response, unless he stops drinking.
He has no right to penny of it, but both
Johnson and Wakely, understand, were
resolved to give him their share OF it.
Under the circumstances the money might
just as we'll be thrown into the gutter. If
it was given to him he would probably
spend it in drinking saloons and less re-
spectacle resorts.
His hackers intended to act generously
toward him, but they may change their
minds now. 1t is not likely that very
large amount of money will be given him
| at once, but that small sums will be doled
out to him at different times. l did more
for Sullivan than l would do for any other
| man in the world. l liked him and be.
lieved that if he could be knocked into
shape again he might behave himself
sent my family away and turned nv home
into training quarters, and labored hard
with him.
When he came to me his stomach was
so weak that it could not retain the lighiest
kind of food. There was hole in his
neck big enough to hold your fist, and bis

my butchers bill while he was with me
amounted to 500 a week.
Il intended to accept nothing for these
services, but to tell Sullivan that the only

surrender much money to him while he is
