ONLT TOOK TWO ROUNDS
For Peter Msber to settle Frank Craig's
Championship Aspirations.

For Peter Msber TO settle Frank Craig's
Championship Aspirations.
BosToH, MASS, July 16.-At Music
Hall tonight, after two rounds of as
hot fighting as Boston has witnessed
this season, Peter Maher stood waving
his arms over the PROSTATE form Of
Frank Craig, the colored wonder from
New York, whom he had knocked out
by chance right Sander.
Ii took but five minutes to settle the
darkey's championship aspirations, but
early in the battle it looked like a walk
for him to win. In the second round
Maher sailed into the negro and for the
first minute it was give and take
WITH THE HoNoRs EASY.
Then the battle inclined TO Maher
and he followed Craig all over the ring
and finally caught him a stiff upper cut
full in the face. Before the darksy
could get his guard into
place Maher caught him a
light one with the left again.
Then Maher shot out his right, and
Craig fell to the floor with bang that
could be heard all over the hall. There
he laid until Tmekeeper Dan Murphy
notified the referee that the time was
up, aud the negro's seconds lifted him
TO his feet. He was then unconscious,
but a few minutes careful handling
brought him around.

chester ball had pierced his body just
above the heart.
Almost At the same Instant one OF the
strikers was seen to,fali. but he arose
again TO his knees, and taking aim with
his Winchester fred four times At the
deputies.
The deputies kept reloading their
guns and firing, and the mob began dis
persing.

around the wounded striker, who was
still firing, and afterSa time they sue
ceeded Ia sllenclng hts gun.

picked up and six are dead.
The negroes are terror stricken and
are running Wild.
A courier has just returned from the
