The betting is slow on the result of the
fight. Abe DAM ls an associate of Phil
D6yer, The horseman, and the hacker of
Corbett for many years. wagered $500 on
Corbett at even money. The other end of
the wager is held by Arthur Wheelock,
brother of Dan Stuart's partner. The only
odds given in this case is that Wbeelock
cannot lose unless Fitzslmmons gets
whipped after the tenth round.
Nose Gunst has the heaviest wager yet
made in this City. He contracted for it
the night OF the FitZsim mons-Sharkey
