There are indications that the three. round
sparrine exhibition between Dominick Nc
Carney and Mike Donovan at the Madison
Square Garden on Dec. II will result in q
meeting between those two we'll known boxing
Instructors, In the affair Of Dec. II there was
an agreement By tho terms Of which no referee
was appointed. and consequently no decision
was made. the spectators being left to draw
their own conclusions as to the merits
Of the contestants. II will b remsm-
bered that after boxing three rounds
both men walked to the centre
and tried to continue the encounter. each
showing disposition to box moro vigorously.
and that the entertainment officials separated
the combatants and brought hostilities to
close. In their dressing rooms. at the con-
clusion Of the bout each accused the other Of
endeavoring to take an unfair advantage. and.
as the two men had never been on friendly
terms. their relations became still more
strained.
Ever since that night McCafYrey has been
ncapacitated by q severe cold that settled in
his throat by reason OF which he was COM
PEELED to call on Jack McAulifYe to act as ref
cree in the Manhattan A. c. boxing show last
Saturday night. While McCaffrey's voice has
been so hoarse he could not do muck taking.
he has at the same time been doing considera-
BILE thinking. and last night he said to . Sun
