Aulffe. the light weight champion ruglist
Of the world met and again defeated Jimmy
Carroll his old-time rival aud three times
his antagonist In the ring for that honor,
tonight before st. Georges club In a ten
round bout forever settling the question Of
superiority between them. In all their bat
ties previous TO tonight. McAuliffe has been
the victor, though never without hard
fight The last time the men met was in
this city, March 2t, 1880, when McAulihe,
who was all but out in the forty-seyenth
round rallied under the clever handling
OF Jack Dempsey and put Carroll out, when
the latter was fighting strong.
Although Carroll has passed his forticth
year, he is a well preserved man and had
trained long and faithfully for this, perhaps
his last fight. 1t may be said he has been in
training for years to defeat MoAuliffe and
entered the ring tonight in prime condition.
McAuliffe has often shown a dislike to hard
training, and although he came 10 the
coast by water from New York for the
purpose of training en- route, he arrived here
rather high in flesh. Since arriving he has
put in some hard llcks and he has taken of
considerable flesh, yet his condition was
not good as Carrolls.
Betting on the fight was quite brisk. with
McAuliffe slightly fayorite at odds OF 50 to
$40, though considerable money changed
hands at even" The expectation OF
hard and scientific fight between the stars
and the additional attraction of ten-round
contest between Dal Hawkins. who recently

as the Arkansas Kid" drew to Wood

George Green stopped the Hawkins-Fin-
nick cThe Arkansas Kid'D bout in the
middle of the second round and awarded
the decision to Hawkins. II was too one
sided to be OF interest.
Carroll appeared first and was well re-
ceived but judging by the enthusiastic re-
ception OF McAulife. he is still a favorfte
with the patrons OF boxing. Carroll looked
hard as wood and brown berry.
There was a noticeable absence OF all SUI
periuous flesh about the waist and he
looked At to make the battle OF his life.
Jacks flesh was white and appeared to be
soft There was too much plumpness about
the chest, arms and shoulders. Both men
exceeded the light weight limit Carroll and
McAuliffe shook hands at 9:4O O'Clock.
