| determination never went astray. When the
| sum Of the Jcrsoyman's victory Is added up In
detail. It reaches big total. Warren had
| every possible advantage that experts. judge

| battle. His great experience was tho ground

Yet, look ut what he did He went to Now Or

three times on tho way. and had but two weeks
| to train in new climate. and that climate q
hot one. Warren had been South for months.
and in training for several weeks. Mccarthy
went in. did oil the fighting from the start
| and came out Of tho ring without o serious
| scratch on him.
Mccarthy writes to The Sun that tho oflcers
| OF the Olympic Club treated him very hand>
somely from tho moment no reached New
Orleans. They advised him to go to Carrollton
to train. and he found the place admirably
| suited to his purpose. He did his running on
the same sort OF soft. springy clay that he
| fought on while Warren was working on hard
ground This probably helped the jersey
man @ great deal Warren did much Of
| his usual jumping around In tho ring. and In
! that sort Of clay no must have tired his legs
more than little. for tho soil is 80 soft that 10
| even ndheres to q fighters shoes. and often
has to be scraped of. between rounds. Mo-
Carthy learned this while at Carrollton. and let
Warren do the jumping. while he avoided any
| moro running or stamping Of the feet than was
| actually necessary.
| Tho other fights Of the week. those between
| Woods and Davis and young Mitchell and Gall
| lagher. in San Francisco. both turned out to be
| lively affairs. and had an added interest In the
prominence that Jack Dempsey took In each.
| In the first Dempsey was the referee. and al
most had q bout with Bob Fitzsimmons. who
| seconded the loser. In tho second fight
Jack was behind the winner as chief
adviser. Mitchell must have folt very sure
Of beating his man. for he only trained down to
1854 pounds-just within the middle-wedshA
limit-and when at his best his weight runs
from 14o to 14S pounds He probably did liz
| tie more than exercise his wind. Gallagher
went at him for few rounds. but the San
Franciscan's clever counters in the region Of
the heart soon had Reddy beaten.
