Englishman.

"Pedlar' Palmer Of London and Johnnie
Murphy of Boston, for the bantam weight
championship of the world took place to-
night at the National Sporting club and
was won by Palmer Both men were in
excellent condition and each weighed in
at 1l41s pounds Palmer was a good fav-
orite in the betting at odds of o to on.
The Englshman forced the fight
ing from the outside of the
battle. He was much the quicker
in his deliveries and hustled Murphy
around the ring in lively style. In the
first two rounds. Murphy failed to land a
single good blow. Nevertheless, he stood
up bravely and took punishment pluckily
as Palmer rained blows upon him with
his right and left. The pluck Of the yam
kee boy was heartily applauded.
In theathird round Murphy landed once
or twice. but did no apparent damage to
his opponent. Murphy entered the fourth
round with more advantage. but he was
terribly slow Round after round rush
ed Palmer after Murphy, but the attempt
did not show that he had been punished
much until the end Of the twelfth round
Then he went to his corner very tired
Before time was called however, he pulled
himself together and made a splendid
fight in the thirteenth round. Despite his
pluck he was too terribly battered to re-
cover permanently and Palmer had the
battle in hand to the finish.
At the end of the twentieth round
Palmer was declared the winner. Murphy
was not knocked out. Palmer's seconds
were Baxter and Fitzpatrick. while Craig
and Folleysmth acted in similar capac-
ity for Murphy.

miles an hour there, and very heavy
sea is running.

sai!ings to-day. Telegraphic communica-
tion with the stations at Hull and High
land light became interrupted during the
nighe and thore is little prospects OF get
ting reports from those points to-day.

trous to shipping is expected TO be shown
by the reports Of the next few days. More
or less damage has already been sustained.

this vicinity it has been heavy. Between
twenty and thirty yachts have broken from
their moorlngs at South Boston, and
large number Of them are damaged so bad
