Some Lawyers, Bankers and Theatrical
Mon HIVE IA Private Prize Fight.
New YORK. Jan. ia novel battle,
the participants wearing bright yellow
skin tight gloves reaching teveral inches
above the wrists, was fought this after
noon in this city. The elaboratelY fur
nished parlor OF well-known road
house near Macomb's dam bridge, was
selected for the battle ground.
The prize ring paraphernalia. which
consisted Of long piece of stout rope,
two pair OF yellow driving gloves cut off
at the finger tips, number Of bottles
containing whiskey and witch hazel,
and several sets of Turkish towels was
carried under tho long ulsters of the
managers to the scene Of the contest
Only twenty-five persons were present.
No admission was charged, the affair
being an invitation one, gotten up to
furnish some odd and select sport. The
invitations wore limited to twenty and
the purse was subscribed among the
spectators, who were mainly we'll do
lawyers, bankers and theatrical people
Tho contestants were Danny Ryan, of
Philadelphia, and Samuel jackson, of
Gloucester. Ryan weighed in at 124
pounds and Jackson at 1876. Johnny
Eckhard was named as referee. A
prominent lawyer was announced as
timekeeper for Ryan, while young and
wealthy real estate dealer acted in like
capacity for Jackson. The fighters were
naked to the waist and seemed we'll
trained.
The first round opened with light
sparring, but toward the conclusion
| jackson tented and landed lightly on
Ryans body
The second round was moro lively.
Ryan assumed the aggressive and rushed
jackson, knocking him down with
straight right. When Jackson arose he
was groggy. and Ryan quickly took ad-
vantage of that fact. He rushed at
jackson again but the latter managed
TO evado somc terrific swings. Time
was called with tho men clinched. BY
clever handling Jackson came up fresh
and determined in tho third round and
endea, ored to force tho fighting.
He began by forcing mis- left on Ryan's
nose, which brought forth = slight rush
of blood Ryan b. car,e angry at this
treatment, and rushed madiy, but was
stopped with straight left on the
mouth. Enc uraged by his success,
jackson again rushed; the blow fell
short of its mark, aud Ryan countered
quickly on his jaw, knocking his man
down and almost out. The call of time
saved him.
From this round to the sixth and last
Ryan had everything practic ,lly his
own way and literally made chopping-
block of Jackson. A swing on Jack
sons jaw in the sixth put him to sleep.
The winner got $500 for his victory,
and Jackson received S25 as balm for
his whipping. After the fight supper
was served, in which both boxers par
ticipated.
