THE ReCUaps
OF james J. Corbsst and John L sullivan
-fhe Pnf.iIisfs

-the fuEuists.
James J. Corbett was born in San Fran.
cisco, Cal, Sept. l, 1866. His father was
from County Mayo, Ireland, and his
mother from Dublin He was named after
his uncle, Father James Corbett, who is
now priest in Ireland
Young Corbett was educated at the Sa-
cred Heart college, San Francisco. and
when he graduated Flood, the bonanza
king gave him clerkship in the Nevada
bank, where he remained several years.
From boyhood up Corbett had always been
fond of athletic exercises, and In the Olym-
pic base ball club he always ranked first as
fielder and batter.
While still clerking in the bank, he
joined the Olympic Athletic club and won
the amateur heavyweight championship.
This infatuated him with boxing and he
left the bank to become sparring instructor
for the Olympic club. While holding that
position, he had his first professional CON
test with Jack Burke, of England, whom
he fought TO draw in eight rounds. There
was no referee, but the San Francisco pub
lie decided in favor of Corbett.
Corbett then developed into afull -fiedged
professional and defeated all the local
heavyweights, among them Joe Choyinski.
whom he met and defeated three different
times Once with bare knuckles in a barn
belonging to Corbett's father, the second
time on the beach near the Cliff House,
(these were four-round events,) and finally
in a finish fight on barge in San Fran
cisco bay.
In this last meeting Corbett broke both
his hands in the third round, but continued
to fight and defeated his man in the
twenty-seventh round. Corbett next, in a
six-round contest for points, bested Kilrain
for 81, 500 purse. In the sparring tour
which followed. he bested Mccartney in a
four-round contest In Brooklyn. An
event OF Importance was his meeting with
Peter jackson, which resulted in q draw
after sixty-one rounds. These were all of
Corbett's big affairs until the fight with
Sullivan.
OF minor events he has had many, among
which were the following, in all of which
he proved the victor Defeated David
Eisemann, two rounds; James Daily, four
rcands; Martin s'Buffalc' Costello. three
rounds; Duncan Mcdonald, of Butte;
Frank Smith, three rounds; Mike Brennon,
four rounds; William Miller, three rounds.
suIlivan's Record.
1ioW ioihilial W every lover OF Jfle man
ly art is the career of John L. Sullivan,
the heavyweight champion, from the time
that, as an unknown quantity, he knocked
Joe Goss, the famous English pugilist, off
the stage at Boston in friendly set-to
over ten years ago. Following thick and
fast have come his victories His defeat of
Paddy Ryan at Mississippi City in 1889,
and after that a big list of knock-outs
came.
OF course, there are dark chapters when,
overconfident of his prowess, he met and
had draws while in wretched condition,
with Mitchell, Mccartney and Tug Wilson.
He whipped men in all sections, and
his last victory at Purvis, Miss, was over
Kilrain, and he had career of triumph
unequaled in the history of pugilism.
Sullivan is about thirty five years of age.

Large Increase In the Business Re-

Large Increase In the Business Re-
ported in This Country.
WASHINGTON, April 28.-Ira Aver,
Special Agent of the Treasury, submitted
to Secretary Foster an exhaustive report
on the tin plate business of the country
The manufacture of tin plate and the
growth of the industry makes the follow
ing showing: For the quarter ended
September 30, 1891, five manufacturers
reported tin plates, 152, 152 pounds; terne
plates, $4,000 pounds. Total-S27, GOO
pounds. For the quarter ended Decem-
Der 81. 1891, eleven manufacturers re-
ported tin plates, 2l6,000 pounds; terne
plates, l,l94,000 pounds. Total ,410, 900
pounds. For the quarter ending March
81, 1892, nineteen manufacturers re-
ported tin plates, 1,100,0 pounds; terne
plates. l,9C4,000 pounds. Total-3, ,004, 900
pounds.
These figures do not include the pro-
ductlon OF Sheet-iron or Sheet-steel, used
in the manufacture of articles timed or
terne plated, estimated at 2,000,0 900 pounds
Aver figures that American manufact-
urers, in order to maintain duty on
tin plates after October l, 1897, must pro-
duce in one. of the six years ending at
that date 50,000,00G pounds of tin and
terne plates, weighing lighter than sixty
three pounds to the square foot. Aver
says the indications under the existing
conditions are that the production of the
country before the close of the second
fiscal year will be in excess of the an
nual rate of 200, ZOO, 900 pounds.
