absolutely sure that the KID" could have
made as good stand as C3rbett did against
either Jehries or Ft2simmons? His showing
seainst Rubin when the Ohio man was little
more than novice was far from being Il

Corbett's showing Against Je6ries
Is Much in His Favor

The interest in the fi@smmons-Ruhlin
match has waned very percepibly within the
past two days, and now those Interested in
pugilism are looking up new topics for dis
CT ssion and speculation. That they will not
have fan to seek goes without saying Corbett
and Mccoy ought TO furnish not only good
nght but unlimited material for talk. AT
present both takers and writers seem IN
tlined to make Mccoy the fayorlte. This rs
perhaps not surprising, for with two sue
oessive defeats to his credit, James Corbett
Is unquestionably under cloud as far as
the general public is concerned and the fact
that he coached the loser in the recent great
battle has doubtless further dotracted from
his prestige.
