THE D|XON-EOGERT0N AFFAIR.
Possibly a Chance Blow that Sent
the Former to the Floor.
Surprises Promised by Columbia A.
&. Mcn-Othcr Gossip.

Probably the most interesting event
that has taken place in pugllisic affairs
in some weeks was the set-to between
George Dixon and Walter Edgerton. the
"Kentucky Rosebud" at Philadelphia
last night. From all accounts the blow
which sent Dixon to the floor was as I'M
expected to the giver as it was to the re-
ceiver. Dixon, it is said, was suffering
from a heavy cold. Following is an ac-
count OF the way it was done:
Dixon lost no time in getting down to
business In the second round, n used
his left to advantage on the Rosebud's
wind. Finally the pair got into Dixon's
corner. Dixon led with his left, and Ed
gerton first attempted to counter and
then made a half-arm swing with his
right and landed on Dixon's left cheek,
below the eye. Dixon went down in Il
heap, thoroughly duzed, and was prompt
ly carried to his chair. 1t was not a
knockout, but If 1t had been a finish
fight the chances are that Dixon would
not have been able to give any good ac-
count of himself at the expiration Of the
ten seconds AS soon as the spectators
realized that the local representative
had floored the champion their enthusi-
asm knew no bounds. Dixon was all
right in the third round, and although
he did the greater part Of the leading
he was unable to do anything for the
previous round.
