New York, Aug. 25.-Whipped into
lnsensibillty in less than two rounds
is the story in brief of Tom Sharkey's 8
meeting with Bob Fitzsimmons at the
Coney Island Sporting club last night.
fltzsimmons was the victor, Sharkey
the loser. Fitzsimmons said all along
that when an opportunity presented
Itself he would prove conclusively that
ne was Sharkey's superior, and settle
accounts for the injustice done him
when he met Sharkey in California
four years ago. Sharkey was equally
confident that he would prove to be
F1tzsimmons' master in the ring, but
the result of the battle, and the brew
ity Of it, proved that Fitzsimmons is
still a great fighter and able to beat
the best Of the heavyweights. He has
beaten Corbett, Rubin and Sharkey.
Fitzsimmons was a decided favorite in
the betting, owing to his showing with
Rubin a short time ago.
When they met last night both of
them declared themselves to be in first
class condition and they certainly
looked it. Fitzsimmons had taken on a
few pounds in weight since his meet
ing with Rubin, but neither he nor
SharlSey would tell his actual weight,
but Sharkey looked to be about 20
pounds the heavier.
When the men came together Shar-
key assumed the aggressive, rushing
hercely and swinging wildly. Fitzsim-
mons had no difficulty in side stepping
out Of the way. Bob soon began feint-
ing Sharkey into leads and when the
sailor tried his round arm blows he left
himself open, of which Fltzsimmons
was quick to take advantage, as he
stepped inside and put powerful right
and left smashes on the sailors body
and neck. Tie stabbed Sharkey with
his left, making the sailor lose his
temrer, and then Sharkey rushed more
wildly than before. missing most OF
the swings while Fitzsimmons was get
ting to him with great force and using
both hands.
At the close Of the round Sharkey,

with a terrific left swing. which landed
on shoulder ana neck, put Fitzsimmons
down to the floor OF the ring and Tom
fell over him I'm his mad rush. Tom re-
gained his feet quickly, but the bell
rang with Fitzsimmons still on the
floor. The spectators were cheering like
wild men and when Fitzsimmons got
to his feet the men shaped to 20 for
each other, evidently not having heard
the bell amid the uproar. The referee
rushed between them. sending them to
their corners. and this Is where Shar-
Key says he would have finished Fitz-
simmons had he had ten seconds more.
In the second round Sharkev. having
gained confidence from his knocking
t1tzslmmons down in the preceding
round, went for his man as II to an
initiate him, but Fitzsimmons having
the cooler head and better judgment
outgeneraled the younger man. who
seemed to lose all control Of himself in
his frantic endeavors to land on Fitz-
simmons. Fitzsimmons stepped in with
a crushing right to the body and
ready left to the jaw while the best
Sharkey could do was to swing q left.
which landed in the middle of Fitz-
simmons back
There was fearful force behind this
blow as Fitzsimmons said after the
fight was over that ne felt as if he had
been hit with a piclSax I'm the small Of
the back. Fiizsimmons' coolness. never
forsook him, and he watched sharkeys
wild efforts with evident satisfaction.
as the snilor was leaving himself very
open. Fitzsimmcns stepped into him
and literally battered Sharkey down
with rights on the body and lefts and
rights on the head sharkoy took the
count and came up groggy. He stag
gered back to the ropes with Fitzsim-
mons hot after him. Sharkey was then
unable n project himself and Fitzsim
mons sent that fearful right once more
to the body. following up with right
and left to the body Sharkey wabbled
but still had strength enough to keen
his feet Fitzsimmons stepped in again

flee. True he has made no public an
nouncement OF his political intentions
In this respect, but as he has done SO
privately there can be no reason tc
doubt his candidacy.
IL is a combined Addicks and Demo
cratic scheme without mistake, and
perhaps the first one that has been ex-
posed through public print. That il
will work its own destruction, there
can be no doubt, Republicans and
Democrats, the latter being those who
have some respect for their party prin-
ciples, already having stamped the
deal with pronounced disapproval.

shenn is known to have expressed
some bitterness for those Democrati,
politicians who ousted White on the

been the desire Of Taylor and White
