DAVE SULLIVAN WINS FIERCE FIGHT Jack McCIelIand Could Not Stand the Punishment
 Given Him

Louisville. Ky. April 2e.-Jack MeClel- land of Pittsburg was knocked out in the twentieth round tonight by Dave Sulli- van of Brooklyn.
 The fight throughout was one of the most scientific and vicious ever seen in this city, and when McClelland got the knockout nine out of ten men in the house thought that Sullivan did not have steam enough left to knock out child. For a dozen rounds the Pittsburg boy had in- ficted the severest punishment on him, and at least four times the gong sent him to his seat very weak and groggy. Throughout, however, he fought like a bulldog and took punishment that would have put out many another fighter a dozen times. He and his friends. how ever, were never discouraged. Sullivan was playing his old waiting game in talk ing the punishment.
 In the twentieth both came up apparent ly fresh. McClelland led off with a right swing. Sullivan clinched, and stepping back, uppercut him twice, then led hard drive, which sent McClelland to the floor for eight seconds McClelland got up and clinched. Sullivan trying again to get in the knockout blow. McClelland landed right and left lightly. Sullivan then up- percut him twice, landed left, crossed with the right, and McClelland was out, falling heavily to the floor, his head strik- ing first.
