San Francisco, Aug. 15.-Accord- ,

viewed the contest between Corbett j
and Jeffries last night. The gross re-
ceipts were s62, $40. OF which Jeffries j
$50, IDS, and Corbett SO, $40.
The fight demonstrated beyond all ,
doubt that Jeffries stands alone in his
class. He showed a remarkable i'm
provement in both speed and skill.
Corbett, during the first part of the T.,
fight, was almost outpointed, and the 4
few blows that he landed on Jetfries -,
we're apparently without "a sting. 3
Jerffies was never in better condition.
He looked lighter than usual, and the ,
way he moved about on his feet and }
the frequency with which he counter
ed Corbett's leadss .astOnisheds EVERY >
body. .
Corbett, in comparison with the big ;
man opposite him, looked very light, y
but was really heavier than ever be-
fore. :. He appeared to have lost some ,
of his old time speed and skill during 4
the early part of the fight, but this
may have been due to Jeffries' marvel !
Gus improvement. COrbett's physical A.,
appeared to be all that he
had claimed for it. He stood many of I
Jelfries' terrific blows without wind ,
ing and came back swinging left and
right and landing frequently, but his
blows hardly stung Jeffries.
The end came in the tenth round
when Jeffries planted two terrific =
blows in rapid succession on Corbett's c
stomach.
DEWITT Is THE NAME.
