M'MILLAN WON THE FIGHT
Charley Campbell Mas 0utfouQht from
the Start to the Finish.
GOOD CROWD IN ATTENDANCE
The District Pugilist Had No Trouble in De-
feating the Baltimore Man in Their Match
Before the Henry Athletic Club-Campbell
Was Badly Battered and Eventually Quit.

Billy Mcmillan proved more than a match
for Charley Campbell last evening in their
contest before the Henry Athletic Club, at
Alexandria, the District representative getting
the decision in the sixteenth round. Camp
bell showed up much the heavier man, and
also had the size, but could not land on Me-
MILAN, and in the sixteenth round Campbell
gave up, his seconds advising him TO such a
course.
Upwards of 400 people witnessed the fight,
the majority naturally being with Mcmillan,
although Campbell had many supporters,
quite lumber of Baltimoreans being
present.
But little betting took place, all the sports
being rather chary of putting up their coin,
not being able to get a straight line on either
IAN Mcmillan was known 10 have been good
some years ago, but it was uncertain as to his
condition.
After McMillan's appearance in the ring it
was seen he was fit and trained to the hour,
while Campbell looked beefy and not up to a
fight. The latter was strong and showed
plenty OF sand, but his failure to land on his
opponent was fatal barrier to his success,
he wasting any amount OF strength IL striking
he air, Mcmillan being awfully clever in
ducking and getting away from the big TEL
low
Hite Peckham refereed the go and aceepta-
| bly, filled the position. Mr., Weicerman, OF
Baltimore, was time-keeper. Jake kilraln,
| Joe Northridge and Bob Kernell were in
McMillans corner, while Charley Gehrlng
and Jack Cummings were behind Campbell.
In the first round Mcmillan landed a
! straight punch on CampbelFs nose, tapping
| the caret and being awarded first blood. Mac
! got in another on the nose in the second, the
Il lnlau n
! In the third round Campbell made several
vicious lunges. Mac cleverly ducking and get
ting in a right-hand cross-counter which
| closed CampbelPs left eye. Mcmillan had all
the best of the fourth round, hitting Camp
| bell several hard ones in the face and on the
! body. CampbelIs bad eye bothered and
! placed him at a decided disadvantage. But
| little was done in the fifth, while in the sixth
! Mac had all the best OF it.
Campbell tried for a knockout blow in the
! seventh, rushing his man repeatedly, the lat
! ter ducking and clinching, and at the same
| time playing tattoo on Campbell's face and
ribs. The latter continued forcing the fight
| ing in the eighth, with Mac keeping up his
! punching.
Mcmillan planted couple of hard jabs in
! CampbelI's face in the ninth, cutting the lat
! ters cheek and starting the blood to flowing
again. Campbell's face presented badly
! battered condition. In the tenth Campbell
showed the effects of his fast work, being
slow in his movements and his lunges being
wild. Both men landed just as the gong
sounded.
In the eleventh Mac got in two hard blows
4 or the face and followed it up with stiff one
| Just under Campbell's right eye, bringing out
| a swelling Campbell was game, and came
up rather strong in the twelfth, but was
clearly overmatched, and his only hope a
chance knockout blow. He landed light
one in Macs face in the thirteenth but left no
mark, Campbeils face and breast being cov-
cred with blood.
Campbell rushed Mcmillan in the four
teenth, missed and fell hard against the ropes,
/ Mac getting away by his cleverness. The
! fifteenth proved rattler, Mac starting IN TO
/ finish his man. He landed time and again,
| Campbell beng willing enough to clinch to
avoid punishment
The sixteenth round brought the one-sided
contest to a close, Mcmillan having no trouble
| in hitting Campbell, who was very tired.
After the latter had been rushed and pounded
through the ropes he quit and the crowd
cheered the winner
Mcmillan had not mark after Campbell's
blood had been washed away and in little
speech gave Kilrain great credit for his valu-
| able instructions.
After the fight Hite Peckham announced
| he had man ready TO take on either Pat or
| Mike Raedy. The latter last night called at
/ The TIMES Office and said he would match
his brother Pat against Peckham and would
! himself 60 against Mcmillan.
