IisGracefui Outcome of His Fight with
slavin, the Australian.
LONDON, Dec. 24-The Smith-Slavin fight
took place yesterday morning on private
property near Bruges. Belgium, and was
notable for nothing except to demonstrate
that Jem Smith is a mo gooder," that his
friends on the ground were principally
toughs who did not intend that fair fight
should take place, and that the referee did
not have the grit TO do the right thing
and give the fight to Slavin. From
the start to the finish of the four
teen rounds fought, Slavin bested Smith,
knocking him down at will When Smiths
friends saw this, they began a determined eff
fort to break up the fight, repeatedly strik-
ing Slavin when he came within reach, and
finally leaving the ringside in a body, Smith
going with them. The latter, however. went
back and fought one round, his friends keep
ing up continual attack on Slavin as Slavin
pounded Smith. Slavin claimed the fight
but the referee declared IT draw.
Disguised with Jem smith.
The ruffianly conduct of Smiths friends at
the ringside has disguised every lover of
fair play in the kingdom, and the unjust and
cowardly decision of the referee has added
to the evaporation of sporting men. One
good result has come from the fight, how
ever, which affords good deal Of consola-
ton To all men who take interest in pUgilistio
matters. The status of Smith as prize fighter
Is as definitely settled as though he had won
