IN THIS CITY.
No fight has ever attracted such atten-
tion in this city as the jackson and Cor
bett fight last night. Greenwald and
Baer & Newbauer had special wires,
short report being read to their patrons
at the conclusion of each round. Sew

wagered on the result. jackson opened
up the favorite at two to one, but as the
fight progressed the betting was dollar
for dollar. Several score OF men stayed
up until 2 O'Clock when bulletin came
announcing the decision. The fight for
forty rounds was one of the best on
record and it was unfortunate that the
ending was SO unsatisfactory. Jim Cor
