| condition when the blackamo0r de-
| feated him. This seems ridiculous. for
Peter is in the employ of the California
| club, and its management will not per-
| nit him to bot her with McAuliffe
| while virtually bound to meet Sullivan.
| SOme other reason has caused Peter to
| revisit the Atlantic coast. He will be
called back by wire by the time this is
| printed.
| Jim Corbett feels rather riled over
the criticism of Eastern Scribes who
said that his roughing of Dominck Nc
| Catfrey on the ropes was unfair. He
claims that he did nothing that was not
| permissible, but, after seeing four or
five contests here, / am satisfied that
| the criticisms We're just, but that Jim
| did not mean to do anything wrong. All
the fights that take place in this city are
fer purses offered by clubs. These
| purses are made up by the dues of the
members of the clubs. These members
want to see the contests fought out, and
| not decided by fouls" The fighters
are Oh to this, and, despite thu warn
| ings of their referees, most Of them re-
| sort to every sly trick imaginaole 10
best their opponents. When Charlie
Turner, the coiored mddi weight,
| fought Denny Kelleher, he iabUed his
| man in the throat with his left elbow
| every time he could, and before they
| had fought three rounds Kellehef'S
breast and throat were as red as a
| turkeys wattles from this rough usage /.
| Denny then retaliated in kind. and by
| the time the contest was over each ndd
| done enough of f0uling to diSqua v
| him dozen times before any Eas tern
club. The same thing took place when
Billy Mahen and Shannon fought be-
| fore the Occidental club. The referee
| warned each man a dozen times, uut
| only temporary heed WAS paid to his
| lnonitions. Corbett was raised in. this
school, and, consequently, he is rougher
in his fighting thall- ne would be had
his career been in the East. He had
resumed his position as boxing in
structGr of the Oily mpc clubs. and. as
might be expected. his victories over
Kilrain and McCaffrey ave made INN
hosts of new admirers. He is the best
bred and educated pugiIst know of,
and his friends here are among the first
people Oh the Pacific slope. mean his
athletic admirers. He was for several
years clerk in the Nevada bank in
this city. and he has vely exalted
ideas about elevating puglism. Despite
his recent growl at John l.. Sullivan
and his offer to box him four rounds. he
lighter living, and he will bet his money
on him when he faces jackson.
Jack Dempsey is living very quietly
in Portland. and the chances are that
he will not return here for some time.
Though his resignation as boxing in
structor of the California club has not
been accepted, there is little prospect Of
mis- resuming his duties there, aS they
are rather diStasteful to him. A good
many people here hope that Jack may
train Sullivan for his 90 with Jackson,
and second him, too, Oh that mOmentDuS
occasion. | presume the big fellows
Eastern friends would be glad to know
that Dempsey was behind their favorite.
Pete McC0y's victory over Johnny
Reagan convinces Californians that
johnny would have had little chance
with Young Mitchell had they met, BY
the way, Mitchell will soon go into
training for his contest with ''The Ma
rine." His friends feel that he has a
hard job ahead of him, but they say if
he can Keep away from La Blanche'S
rushes for eight or ten rounds that they
will then bet even money that he will
defeat him. All here feel that "The
Marine" is a tough customer. and that
he is really never out of any contest
while he can stand on his feet.
Joe Ellingsworth is here, laying on
his oars and very anxious for fight.
He he lped to second Denny Keliher
against Charles Turner, of Stockton.
and now that Denny is dsincined to
give Turner a chance to regain his lost
laurels, Joe is very anxious to take Den
ny's place and box the darkey himself.
There is possibility that some of the
clubs here will offer purse for their
contention. fear that the black is
little too clever for Joseph.
Billy Mccarthy. the Australian mid
dleweight, is an out and ont glutton.
All the Australians seem to be. When
he was matched against Dempsey, am
told, he said, Jacks good fellow and
l feel sorry that I've got to lick him.
He'll feel awful bad when l put this
right on him." Well. they met. and
Jack was far from being as well as he
ought to be; nevertheless. he was not
the one to feel sorry when the bout
was over. Now, am told that Billy |
is again lamenting, and that this
time the object of his commiseration
is Reddy Gallagher, The other day he
said: BLOW me, but Pm feeling well.
I'd loike to go out right now and slug
for a hour. Poor Reddy, he seems q |
decent sort and Pm sorry to have to |
put this right on him." Will history re-
peat itself, and will Billy be again !
mournful after this fight is over? We |
shall see. Meanwhile Gallagher's |
hands are we'll again, and ne is work |
ing like beaver getting himself in fix |
for the fateful 29th inst. | think he |
will be the favored in the betting.
If Jack Davis, who has just arrived, |
shows up in good shape against Joe |
Choyinski, they are apt to make one of |
the create st battles ever seen ON this |
coast. Choyinski is hurricane fighter, |
and no one can stop him but stiff left |
hand jabber. His nose bleeds very |
freely from slight hits, aud it is SAID |
that he lost his fight with Jim Corbett |
as much from weakness caused by loss |
of blood as anything else. He is good |
deal cleverer- now than he was then, |
and il may not be so easy to get onto |
his boko. If Davis defeats him he will !
be a wonder indeed. MACON.
