Frank p. slavin, the Austrsuan Champion.
Knocked Out.

Frank p. Slavfn, the Austrslian Champion
Knocked Out.
The fight for e10, 900 between Peter jackson
and Frank p. Slavin was fought last night in
London and Jackson won.
The National Club was crowded to suffoca-
ton with spectators anxious to witness the
fight. The entrance became 30 much obstructed
by the crowd that the owner refused to allow
any more to enter without q ticket. Two
hundred policemen kept order outside the club
house, where a struggling mass assembled with
the expectation Of being admitted.
Among the solid bets were $500 to f20t
on Slavin. made at the Victoria Club
and one of Goo to f100, also on slavin. Jack.
son trained at Brighton and weighed 19f
pounds. He had for his seconds Joe Choyn-
ski Of San Francisco, "Parson'' Charles
=. Davies Of Chicago and Jem Young.
Slavin's seconds were his brother Tom, Tom
Williams, the 14O-pound champion Of Austria
liza, and Tom Burrows. They reported their
man as in splendid condition. He weighed
1s5 pounds. An innovation was in having the
ring twenty feet in diameter instead of twenty
four feet. The referee was Mr.. Angle, who held
that position when John L. Sullivan tough,
Charley Mitchell in France.
Lord Lonsdale opened. the proceedings with
a speech. and the fight then began.
Slavin had no chance against the bigger man.
yet he always came up pluckily to the call OF
time. In the tenth round Slavin was knocked
helpless against the ropes, being in a terrible
condition from the fearful punishment he had
received.

tralian light heavy or heavy middle weight was
teaching class. Peter put them on with the
agile Mick, who dealt out grim punishment to
the novice. II slaughtered him." said Mick
when talking over the affair, ''but the harder
hit him the Oftener he came. About ten years
ago be became pupil of Larry Foley, retired
champion of Australia, and his career in the

he punished Costello severely, but he failed to
stop him. His victories are as follows:

NAVAL VETERANS.

A very we'll organized association of the
Sons of Naval Veterans has recently been
formed in Washington, an auxiliary to
the Potomac Association. Still another
exists In New York, and one also in Phil
adelphia. II is to be hoped that the Sons
OF Naval Veterans will hold a convention
in Baltimore to form n national associa-
tion of the Sons Of Naval Veterans.
Farragut Association, Naval Veterans,
Port of Providence, will hold its last
for Baltimore. A great deal of business
was done relating To the Baltimore cruise.
AS near as Capt. Topliff can tell, he said
that he should probably carry one hun
dred and fifty officers aud shipmates all
told.
1t is evident from reports of national
and local officers that there is an increased
pride and closer fraternity growing up
between naval veterans. New organiza-
tions are springlng up in various sections
OF the country. The cncampmcnt at
Baltimore this year in September will 90
far towards cementing the fraternal feel
ing there fostered and the chance to form
