NOT THE SULLIVAN OF OLD.
The Ex-Champion Looks Careworn. and
Is Slow In Movement.

BosrON, May 22.-John L Sullivan,
the pride Of the Hub, had a benefit at the
Casino, in this city, last night. About
2, 800 persons were present, and the big
fellow received quite an ovation. He
boxed three rounds with his old rival,
Paddy Ryan, ffom whom he won the
championship
The once great champion is no longer
In proper condition to be classed as Il
fighter. He is slow, bit this, OF course,
is partly due to his weighing $50 pounds
II was with great difficulty that he got
through the three rounds
The first round was a little over q
minute, ana upon going to his corner he
told the time keeper to cut the next
rounds shorter This was done, and they
were made about forty Eve seconds each.
Even this made Sullivan puff in such a
manner that everyone could see his poor
condition.
Very little Of his old time form was
noticeable during the contest. He simply
stood up and iabbed or swung his right
and left at Ryan, without attempting "a
move around on his feet. His set TO in
his play "The Man From Boston" greatly
ovtrshadows his bout Of to night. His
age has begun to tell on him, too, and he
looks caTeworn.
There is no doubt that he will never
enter a ring again. He could not stand
the strain sf training to get into con

not give up. and without doing 80 h'
could not hope to do battle successfully
against the men in the ring to day

is that he did not retire year or so be-

Mr. Ward represented the defendant.
Tlehman Johnston, the plaintiff He
said the affidavit showed that while the

cashier, but that the office of cashier
Of the corporation is now vacant by the
death Of the former holder, and that the
assistant cashier Is authorized to dis
charge all the duties of the Office Of
cashier.
MIR. Johnston contended that the sssis-
tant cashier was de facto cashier.
Mr. Ward said that the statute was

strued.
Mr. Johnston informed the court that
bis first impression was that the error
was fatal IL was simply a clerical error
ON his part The word said must relate
to the party making the affidavit.
Chief Justice Lore--"He is cashier

Chief Justice Lore-"That Is drawing

Mr. Johnston said he would take an
inquisition TO determine the amount.
