FITS MOVEMENTS
Since the Defeat of Sharkey-Some
Gossip and Comments.

NEW YORK, August 25.-Fifteen
minutes after the Fitzsimmons-Shar-
key fight last night Fitzsimmons, the
winner. returned to his home al Berg
en- Beach and went to a dance with
his wife.
This morning he went for a stroll
along the board walk near his home
followed by a large crowd. He show
ed no sign whatever of having been
engaged in a glove contest.
Sharkey went TO his home IN Sleeps
head Bay after the fight, retired and
was out at o'clock this morning. lie
had little to say.
FitzsimmonS' comparatively easy
victories within two weeks over Rub
lin and Sharkey, both strong, heavy
men, has put the former Australian in
a position where he has a right to eX-
pect another contest with Jeffries, but
it is not certain yet that he will chal-
lenge the boiler-maker at present.
Both men have theatrical engagements
to fill and are deSiriOuS OF making
what money they can in that way.
The law permitting glove contests in
this State has been repealed to take
effect September LIST, and it is hardly
likely that FitZsimmons would be will
ing to enter the ring before that date.
Notwithstanding his sensational per-
Torrance in disposing of two men
heavier than himself in two weeks 1t
is not believed that he would try TO
put out a third and that one the cham
pion and heaviest OF all, within the
month. The gate money for Fitz-
simmons-Jeffries contest in Madison
Square Garden this city PROBABLY
would break all records, and the fight
ers knowing this, may decide to wait
until after the meeting of the next
Legislature in the nope that law leg
alizing boxing may be passed by it.
However both men are in good condi-
ton and the managers of several box
ing clubs will try to arrange a match
between them for an early date.
There was much comment among
ring followers to-day over the fact
that Fitzsimmons knocked out Rub
lin in six rounds and Sharkey in two,
while Jeffries some time ago boxed
a 20 round draw with Rubin and
more recently failed to stop Sharkey
in %, although he was given the de-
cision over the sailor.

He has all kinds of confidence in his

there is no good reason why either
should be a prohibitive in the betting.
Kennedy will probably be the ia
