PUGILISTS FIGHT
BLOODY BATTLE
Tommy Ryan Gets Decision
Over Tommy West.
MGovERN AS SECOND
THROWS UP SPONGE IN HOPE
LESS CONTEST.

Louisville, Ky, March 4.-Tommy
Ryan of Syracuse, tonight was given
the decision over Tommy West Of
BROOKLYN, after seventeen rounds of a
Twenty round contest. Vests seconds
threw up the sponge.
The fight took place at the
auditorium, under the auspices
OF the Southern Athletic club,
and was the bloodiest and most
desperate ever seen in Louisville. They
entered the ring at catch weights and
each weighed in the neighborhood of
ISL pounds.
After the tenth round West was as
sisted by Terry McGovern. In the first
round honors were about even, though
both were right in for business Both
landed often and hard. West getting
in several hard joits on Ryan's nose.
In the second Ryan was knocked
down twice and seemed all but out.
when the gong sounded. At the first
knock down Ryan took almost fun
count The third and fourth rounds
were Vests and the fifth Ryans. In
the sixth West landed on Ryan's nose
and there was more blood. Ryan was
the saggresscr in this round, but West
blocked and landed at viii, and but
for the gong, might have finished his
man.
In the seventh Ryan's lip was split
and Vests nose was broken. his right
ef4 closed, his forehead laid open in
two places and his cheek split. Blood
poured from his wounds as time after
time Ryan landed on the injured places.
He played continuously for the broken
nose and for the next half dozen rounds
made a Vericable Chopping block OF
West. The punishment West took was
wonderful, blood pouring from nearly
a dozen of his wounds. Vests corner
looked like a slaughter house, and the
fight announcer actually had to wipe
tsie blood from the floor with a mop.

going, the fellow answered that he was

directed to take to Ogden.
The humor of the situation dawned
on the miners before the tramp saw
the point, and then a bargain was
struck up. whereby the thief gave the
miners a ride back to Sandy on pay

terday morning, the stolen rig was
identified. Meanwhile the tramp spent
his dollar for booze, and when Deputy

was too full for utterance.
At last accounts the tramp was
