PARIS, March Is. The Echo de Paris
says it understands that Italy is ON the
eve OF ceding to Grsat Britain the
island of Pantallaria, situated 90 miles
southwest Of the island of Sicily, and
abont half way between the coast of
Africa and the Sicilian coast, in ex-
change for the island of Perrin, off the
Arabian coast, in the strait of Babel
Mandeband at the entrance of the Red
sea. The island of Perrin is bare
rock about five miles long, on which
turtle shells are taken, belonging to
Great Britain, whereas the island of
Pantellaria has ali area of 81 square
miles, population of about 1000, pro-
duces fine fruits and has convenient
port, Oppldolo, at its northwest point.
Under the circumstances the Echo de
Paris expresses the hope that the pow.
ers will interfere and refuse to permit
the transfer of the islands referred to.

but Fltz with his right caught him

not knocked out in the common ac-
ceptanca of the word. He was not un-
conscious but the pain resulting from
the blow under the heart was so great
as to make him careless of anything
else. He tried several times to rise but
was unable to do so and was counted
out by the referee.

Corbett's face assumed its customary
fighting grin, and he settled down to
the fight of his life. He landed several

was on the cheek, staggering the au.

arranged the few preli minary matters
in short time and about I2 10 the
bat lie commenced. Little was accom-
I Ii he'd by either of the men in the
first round, but in the next few rounds
Corbett had every advantage In the
fifth round he punished Fitzsimmons
severely, battering him on the face and
body until the blood streamed from his
face and he finally sank to his knees to
avoid further punishment, remaining
there until nearly all the allotted time
had expired, when he arose and sue
ceeded in continuing the contest for
the few remaining seconds of the
round. Nearly all the spectators
Thought the End Was at Hand,
but the Australian rallied and fought a
game battle for nearly eight rounds
more, though there were several occa-
sions during that time when Corbett
seemed to have had him going. He did
land number of blows on Corbett and
they were hard, too, but they seemed
to have little effect on him.
At the opening of the 14th and last
round Corbett looked the winner
Though somewhat tired, he was still
strong and was displaying more sci
ence and continued to pound the Aus.
tralian and keep up the flow of the
stream of blows. And then came the
final blow and the end The blow
which ended the fight was lefthand
punch delivered just below the heart.
1t was all the more effective for the
reason that Corbett was leaning back

just over the spleen and must have
caused the most intense agony. Cor
bett was more unconscious from pain
than from the force of the blow AS
he lay writhing and groveling on the
floor his face presented the most
CHASTITY appearance imaginable. No
man in a last death struggle could
have Mortified the spectators more and
his agonizing cries of pain could be
heard above the cheers for the victor
And then followed the widest scene of
the day, when he rose to his feet and
with all the strength he had left
rushed at his opponent and tried to fin
ish the contest. Those nearest the
ring jumped over the ropes and in
moment
The Entire Enclosure
was filled with a bowling, shouting
mob, and the noise and confusion
were so great that the referee was
hardly able to announce his decision
awarding the battle to Fitzsimmons.
In the midst of it all, Corbett, who had
been forced TO his corner by his friends,
broke away from them and rushed at
Fitzsimmons a second time, but this
time instead of attempting to renew
the fight he implored his victor to give
him another chance and to accept
challenge from him. This was refused
and warm words followed. Fitzsim-
mons was borne away with all the
glory of his new won victory and Cor
bett left to return to his home i'll San
Francisco, carrying with him the de.
