A story circu- lated to the effect that the fight was ! p:earranged affair enraged the cham pion and frenzied FitzsimmOns to the point of bursting into tears and faint ing away. If any proof of fake can be offered, F'itz says he will forfeit the winnings and his last dollar in the wnrld.
 Jeff is equally vehement in his denial. and both are courtirg a full investiga- ten.
 Mayor Schmitz is weighing the al- legged evidence in the case and intimat- ing that he will end prizefGhting here # he finds the circumstances bear out the charge that the fight was fake.

 Delaney. Egan. Lou HCuseman, Alec Greggains. Sam ThaH and others are loud in their denunciations of the story that the battle was a fake. They say that the letter prcphesying the result and the final round in a sealed note to the mayor was coincidence and that hundreds of anonymous letters suggest ing parallel outcomes are extant.
 Fitz said today: Tt is a shame to call it a fake. I fought the greatest fight of my life and here have been branded as cur. I could not have won any way. Both hands were gone. I've fought three hundred and twenty-eight battles and have been defeated twice. both times by Jeff. That shows that he is the better man, does it not? I've had twenty-five years Of hard fighting and my hands have gone back on me If they had been all right Jeff would not have lasted six rounds but I've got no excuse.

Confused wounds on the right mira o"bital and left supra orbital margins, as well as the detlected condition of the nose, prove what force the blows must have exerted. Had these blows been raincd or enc of less staying powers. the fight would have been over long before the eighth round.
