AFTER THE BATTLE
Fitz Wild With Delight = corbett Childish
With Despair

CARSON, New, March 17.-After the
battle Fitzsimmons walked to his dress .
ing room accompanied by his wife and
followed by his trainers. Many shouted
congratulations to him on the way, and
his trainers of course shook hands with
him while his wife hung on his neck and
kissed him.

Fitzsimmons. Il have established be-

title disputed by one man only-James
J. Corbett. l was a bit fearful at the
outset because the first right-hand lead
I made at him landed on the back of his
head, wrenching my thumb. Thereafter
I was at disadvantage, and you may
have noticed that my right swings were
short. but they were delivered with the
purpose of deceiving Corbett into the
belief that the thumb was not injured.
That accounts for my missing so many
right-hand swings. l discovered at the
outset that his punishment did not affect

'It looked for the first five rounds as
if it was Corbett's fight. He had Fitz-
simmons wobblng in the fourth and
fifth, and in the fifth l was forced for
the first time to go between the men to
make Fitzsimmons break away. After
that it appeared to me that Corbett's
blows were not so effective as before,
and Fitzsimmons seemed to be getting
stronger all the time. Barring knock
out by Fitzsimmons, l considered the
only show Corbett had was to punch and
worry him by degrees-follow him up
till he was dead. But the Knockout
blow came. 1t was one of the cleanest
fights that ever took place for the cham
pionship."
In criticising the contest, Muldoon,
the veteran wrestler. said: 1T was the
prettiest and best fight that ever oc-
Cured between big men. Corbett had
plenty of steam in his blows, but could
not reach vulnerable part of Fitzsim-
mons anatomy. He had Bob nearly out
in the fifth round and should have fin
ished his man then, but he was not quick
enough nor fresh enough. My former
criticism of Corbett's training methods
still holds good. He practiced boxing
with slow, poor boxers, while Fitzsim-
bod n q h.
tanned Corbett is a beautiful boxer,
but Fitzsimmons is great fighter. He
is the better man of the two"

Il can't believe it, he sobbed; Il

The scene was too much for the little
crowd of heart-broken friends.

| It's all right, old boy. We all know you
can beat him, jim"
| Corbett's face was as pale as death
and drawn into ugly lines by physical
and mental agony. He little looked the
man who had whipped Sullivan. as he
lay back in his chair, his hand pressed
below his heart, where the blow that
ruined him had gone home.
Meanwhile the trainers were working
with their man. His pallid face and the
