Special Dispatches to THE MORNING CALL.
LONDON, Sept. 27.-The fight between Nc
Aullffe and Slavin. this morning, ended in a
most disastrous defeat for the American in
the second round. McAuliffe entered the
ring weighing 2o4 pounds, while SIayin
fought at 1S5 pounds.
S!aVln struck the first blow, after cautious
sparrlng for few sec nds on each side, and
lhen bosh men went at each other like de-
mons. Great disorder prevailed among the
spectators, who thought that McAuliffe was
getting the best of it, but he evidently ex-
cited himself too much at the beginning, for
at the end Of the round Slayin pursued him
around the ring and knocked him back upon
his elbow.
McAuliffe recovered at once, and neither
could be considered in the ascendant at the
end of the first round.
ALL sLAVIN's WAY.
The second round belonged to Slavin
alone. He drew blood from McAuliffe's
left ear to start with, and then started in to
make things hot for him. He pounded him,
he slugged him, he drove him around the
ring, he banged him in the front of his head
and the back, and then smote him where he
was the snrest and downed him.
z McAuliffe struggled to his feet. barely in
time To observe the ten seconds iatermis-
sion for recovery allowed under the Mar
quiS of QueenS0erry rules. When he got to
his feet he leaned against the ropes in a
dazed manner. Slayin stood off and with
held his hand for several seconds. Then
McAuliffe made feeble effort to put up
his fist and then Slavin was down upon
him. He knocked him to the floor again
and McAuliffe failed to rise within the ten
seconds permitted him.
TERRIBLY PUNISHED.
After the referees had given the fight to
the Australian, McAuliife's seconds lifted
him up. Gore was running from his ear
over his chest, and to l was offered that
he would quit the ring and open a saloon.
The fight lasted exactly six minutes, and
in that time Slavin won the Police Gaz-tte
championship belt and, according 10 the
0rmOnde Club, the heavyweight champion
ship Of the world.
Jim Carney and Billy Mccarthy were be-
hind Slavin, while Billy Madden and Jack
Burke looked after McAuliffe. There were
two referees, 3. J. Angle and George Vie,
while the ume-keeper was Lord Montague.
