Rounds With Burns of Cohoes.

Troy. N Y, Nov. 1.-THE bout at the
Manhattan Athletic club last night be-
tween Larry Burns OF Cohoes and Mar
tin Flaherty of Lowell. Mass, was wit
messed by nearly 5000 people. The men
weighed IN in the afternoon, and each
tipped the scales at 125la pounds. In the
first round Flaherty opened with hard
one on the left eye. which almost closed
that optic. The round was fast and
furious. Flaherty played for Burns
eye and mouth during the contest, and
Burns landed most of his blows on
Flahertys wind.
In the fourth round Referee Tighe
cautioned Flaherty for fouling Burns
with his elbow. The fighting was of the
whirlwind variety in round six. and
Burns showed the effects of the punish
ment received.
Cries OF foul were sent up during
round seven from the crowd when
his elbow during the clinch. Both men
fought like tigers until the 18th round,
when Burns was sent TO his knees with a
heavy uppercut from Flaherty's right,
which caught the Cohoes man under the
ear. When Burns got up he went az
Flaherty with vengeance. and the
gong saved the Massachusetts, boy from
going out.
In the 18th round Referee Tighe stopped
the bout and gave the decision to Burns
on another foul by Flaherty.
