The Slayin-kilrain Fight,

NEW York, June 1S.-Jere Dunn ref
cree in the Slavin- -Kilrain glove fight
made his decision tonight. He awards
the fight to Slavin and declares thst Kill
rain was not knocked out. Bets that he
would not be knocked out in ten rounds
because the winner is declared after less
than 10 rounds had been con tested.
Dunn says that Timekeeper DAILY
made an unfortunate mistake after the
gong got out of order by not calling out
from his watch by which he was timing
seconds that elapsed when Kilrain was
down in the ninth round. He
then states that he considers
himself officially at fault in not keep
ing eyes toward the centre of the ring a
that time in order to see for himself how
quickly Kilrain got up. He explains tn,
fact that his back was toward Kilrain b,
saying that he felt it his duty on accoun
of Slavin's method of fighting to watcl
the fight to prevent him from fouling
Dunn says Slavin always showed de
sire to go in and slug Kilrain the instan
he arose from falling down. The refere'
puts himself on record as being agains
such tactics, and says he would have de
cided against Slavin had he committed
the act in the ninth round.
