was little groggy, and assumed the
defensive. Never heless he seemed to have
gained his second wind ana led twice in
quick succession. He landed on Hanley's
neck, but Hauley seemed to be indifferent
to the attack Ae was strong on his feet
and kept hard at his work. There were
frequent cries of foul, by Hanlsy's
friends, but the referee could not see
that there we're any just grounds for the
claim. Beth men were glad to 90 to
their corners.
