After tho Contest.
New ORLEANS, Sept. Sit transpires
that Sullivan after his defeat last night
began undoing all the careful work OF
training which he and his traincra have
been doing for months past Defeatand
chagrin, coupled with the absence of
motive for further training, doubtless
led the man to resu me his convivial
habits. othors about him were drink
ing. No wonder, then, that Sullivan
drank. His deep sleep this morning
was the result OF potations. When he
awakened this morning he was taken
over to the gymnastic club, and there
he has kept until the time when he
should go with his people to the train
on which the honeward journey was to
begin at $3.50.
At4 p. m. an Associated Press corres-
pondent found Sullivan attired in bath
ing trunks and about 10 essay plunge
iu the pool. Tho great giant presented
a pitiable spectacle. The cut on his
nose had been closed, but the eyes
were blackened. Tho whole face was
swollen terribly.
. In the lower lip on the left side was
deep cut still open and with whitened
edges.
The surface OF the distended lips at
the centre had been literally smashed
against his teeth by Corbetts blows
and the raw tissues were out by the
fevered swelling. And while he tried
to smoke the sodden butt of cigar he
talked in a maudlin voice OF his down
fall.
To spread forth all Sullivan said
would edify no one, and only render.
more pitiable the plight of the man
who through twelve years has been
worshipped by the fstic world. He
said what in sober. quiet he would not
reiterate, and which in his present con-
dition may not be put on record as his
deliberate views. Sullivan lays the
greatest stress on tho fact that he could
not reach Corbett. The shifty light
ming tactics OF the new champion wor-
ried and dazed Sullivan. The Calitor-
ntan circled and circled and kept Sulli-
van circling in order to face him. This
frequent whirling, the lightning leap
ing figuro Of his foe, the whirl OF the
lights and tho may swimming OF thou
sands of white and eager faces banked
upon all sides-all this tended to con-
fuse and daze the big fellow from Bos-
ton. He never has been so puzzled be-
fore.
NEW SENSATION.
The sensation was new. The light
ming fash-like science Of the younger
man was revelation to Sullivan, who,
IN his best days, had never possessed
such pugilistic elements.
Then, add ten years difference in ages
and the conditions that confronted Sui
liyan has been fairly stated.
"But ] did not run away" the big
fellow almost sobbed.
clock US up in a room-just lock me
in room with hitn-and sec what l
could do with him."
Then he relighted the sodden cigar
which he held between his raw and
swollen lips. "But he licked me-yes
no did, he licked me-and l let it go
II give him allNthe credit he wants.
He licked me square enough, but I'm
old, [ am. Let him go through what l
have. Let him knock 'em all out for
twelve years and then see ii he cGn do
any better than l did. But my father
and mother put some sense in this
(clumsily spearing at his temple with a
big index finger), and l know when I'm
licked, do. II,
ayes, he licked tho champion and
now he's champion; lot him take care
of it as good as l did, that's all lain't
kicking"
And SO he rambled on, did the de-
feated champion. After awhile he went
to another room and fell asleep.
DESERTED DY FRIENDS.
How different the attentions paidhim
now from those bestowed upon him
yesterday. Then all his friends and
trainers were at his beck and call.
Each few to do his bidding and to sat
isfy any wish. To-day he was alone
among the kindly hearted strangers at
the club house. Handsome Dan MUIR
ply was about the only one of the Sui
iiyan crowd who was attending to the
ex.champion. Curious scrubbers in
the bath department at the club house
stared Mt the unsteady fighter as he
strolled about the baths in his bathing
trunks. he was practically keeping
quiet until the hour when he should be
gotten out Of the town. Wnkely and
Johnson and Moran, his hackers, were
blocks away and about the hotels, while
faithful Phil Casey was packing up for
tho Journey, and Jack Ashton was
drinking in party whoJe chief
occupation was admiration Of Jack
McAulifc, who was about the bar room.
Thus do shift the fortunes OF pugilistic
war.
MAULIFFE's REMARKABLE LUCK.
Many people observed the livid APP
poarances Of Jack McAulife as he stood
in sullivan's corner and saw the champ
ion OF old. Jack was as white as a sheet
aud looked more like marble statue.
He thought there was no man to COM
pare with Sullivan and he did not
hesitate to back him withall the money
he had. So he gave Dick Roche his
check on tho bank oil commerce OF New
Orleans for Sls,250, which all he re-
quested Roche to place on sulli-
van. He was so confident that he
oven went so far as TO borrow 1900 and
