A DESPERATE STRUGGLE.
Jeffries Wins in the Prize Fight with
Sharkey,

Jeffries Wins in the Prize Fight with
Sharkey.
Ringside, Coney Island Sporting Club,
N. Y, Nov. 3.-James J. Jeffries re.
tains the championship of the world.
Referee George Siler giving him the
decision at the end of the Goth round
over Sailor Tom Sharkey at the Coney
Island Sporting club tonight.
1t was one Of the most marvellous bat
ties that has takel, place, and the great.
est crowd that ever gathered in the
Coney Island club house witnessed the
desperate struggle for supremacy.
In five rounds Jeffries had the better
Of the fight-in the first two and the
last three. During the other twenty
Sharkey forced the issue and like a bull
terrier was at his man with both hands
increasingly. In those twenty rounds
Jeffries' great weight and Drawn help
ed him to hold off the sailor, and in the
twenty-second round he swung in q
couple of vicious uppercuts that made
sharkey groggy.
Tom came back again in the twenty
fourth and twenty.ffth, but he was
weakened, greatly by Jeffries' vicious
blows. One minute before the gong
sounded to end the fight, Jeffries' left
glove came off and practically the con-
test was over.
The referee motioned to Jeffries' cor.
ner, aud American flag was flung over
the champions shoulders, and the
crowd on that side and end of the arena
cheered wildly. The crowd on the
opposite side and end, in Sharkey's cor.
ner, yelled for Sharkey and the men
were led back to their dressing rooms.
1t seemed at first as though it would
be a short fight, for in the second
round, Jeffries put the sailor to the
ropes with a left on the jaw, and the
refovee began to call off the seconds as
Sharkey knelt on the floor.
But from the third round on, Shark
ey, with his vicious swings to the ribs
and jaw kept the crowd on its feet
waiting for a knockout. Jeffries stood
the terrific punishment and with his
eye, nose and ear split, came back just
as v%iciousiy in the last three rounds and
almost retrieved himself.
Then came the unfortunate and unsat.
isfactory ending, Jeffries' glove flying
off, bringing the fight to an end, al
though the crowd urged Sharkey to
rush III and end it. This he tried to
do, but Jeffries fought him back and
Referee Siler rushed to the rescue.
1t was noticeable that Jeffries used
his weight to it's best advantage, throw
ing himself all over the sailor, but the
latter did his share of the hugging too,
and both were warned repeatedly.
