were very hot and aroused the fervor OF the spec.
totors, who literally applauded the verdict Of q
draw. Sam Boiand OF New York and Marty McCue
of this city came together next In n bout OF eight
rounds at 1879 pounds. McCue started right In for
the wind, while Boland confined his attentions to
his opponents face and chest. The exchanges
were fast and both boys were badly punished. Bo.
land got the decision.
The third go was between Charley Burns Of
New York and Jack Doyle OF Brooklyn. six rounds,
at no pounds. Both men looked considerably
heavier. Both punched hard and often. and the
decison was a draw. The stellar event on the card
was to have followed, Young Starlight OF Aus.
traia, colored. being booked for a ten, ound fight
with Joe Hopkins, the veteran colored fighter OF
this city, at 1919 pounds. The lads no sooner on.
tered the ring than they commenced to wrangle
over the question OF weight. Finally II was adj.
mitted that Hopkins was at least two pounds over
weight. and then starlight fatty refused to go
on at all. AT this time It was Just a quarter OF an
hour before midnight, and Police Captain German
took q hand. sent both fighters out of the ring, and
cleared the hall.
