PHILADELPHIA, Pa. Sept. z5-ft
required less than two rounds tonight
at the arena for Joe Butter, the local
colored pugitIst to put DOC" Pagne,Mc-
Coy's sparring partner, out OF business
but In that time Butler gave an exhibit
tfon Of the Eouiest kind Of fighting, and
It was only with the aid OF the police
that he got safely away from the crowd
OF over 1900 persons who were waiting
for him In front OF the building. The
men were to fight six rounds. As the
bell sounded for the first round Butler
rushed derceiy Mt Payne and there
were frequent rapid and wicked eX.
changes. In the middle OF the round
Butler deliberately forced Payne
against the ropes.Rnd in cllnch threw
him and began to punch him. Referee
sChleIchter separated the men and de.
clared the round ended, but the colored
fighter went at his man again and land
ed three or four hard punches. Payne
was ErogEy when the bell sounded.
Notwithstanding the EoullRg In the
Flrst round the men were allowed to face
each other for The second time. Butler
and Payne fought fiercely for minute
when the local man again began his
rushing tactics and landed heavy
right swing on Pagne's jaw, The latter
fell like a log and had to be carried
from the ring. He did not regain COM
gciousness for over twenty minutes.
Under the police arrangements with
the management no decision Is given az
fights in this city, else Payne would
have been declared the winner.
Some time after the fight It was
deemed advisable to send PaVne 70
hospital. He was deIirIous and after
an examination by three doctors they
we're unable to determine exactly What
injury he had received, II was feared
that conclusion OF the brain had result
ed and the physicians would hold out
no hope for his recovery.
