%har!<cy Sets The Best Of the Court
Fight for That Disputed
$4,000 Cheek
ON A TECHNICAL DECISION
1t is Held There Is No Difference BE
tween Glove Contest and
n Prize Fight.

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. i1--The fight
between Sharkey and Fitzsimmons for
the possession Of the $4,000 purse vas
concluded today when Judge Sanderson,
of the superior court, dissolved the in.
junction restraining the Anglo Cali
fornia bank from cashing the check.
Counsel for Sharkey called the attention
or the court to a state law forbiddiug
prize lighting, between which, and q
glove cout ct" he maintained, there
was no difference and he argued that
8 case involving the possession of a
purse for prize fighting had no standing
in court. The judge concurred in shis
view, and said he would have terminated
the proceedings earlier, had that point
been called to his judicial attention. The
court held that under the California
statute, civic board of supervisors had
no more power to legallze a prize fight
than to sanction duel.
Fitzsimmons' attorney said the court s
decision ended the fight for the purse.
He admitted that his client was knocked
out by law. Neither Sharkay nor Lynch,
his backer, presented the check for pay
ment to the Anglo California bank this
afternoon. Manager Lilienthal of the
bank stated to an Associated! Press re-
porter that he would decline to cash the
check pending the disposition Of several
writs Of garnishment against the amount
Of the nurse.
