THE PUGILISTS.
eting Between Corbett and 2 rJeffries Is Postponed.
Tt Will Take Place Next Monday When All Arrangements Will be Completed Al Weinig Describes a Peculiar Blow He Received-Abe Attell Trains Hard For McGoyern.

San Francisco, May 16.--The meet ing between Corbett and Jeffries has been postponed to next Monday after noon, when they will complete arrange ments for the heavyweight champion ship battle in August. The fight has been announced, and little remains for decision outside of determining wheth- CT or not the men are to punch in clinches. Jeffries is willing to fight that way, as he believes that in short arm work lies his greatest chance of victory. Corbett is undecided just what course to pursue. He is aware that in the game of giving and taking he exceeds the championNat long range. He is understood to be against fighting in clinches, as he fears he will get the worst of it. About the referee, many here think Siler's eyesight is failing,
 and that he cannot see across the ring
 Jeffries favors Siler, but Corbett is in favor of Graney.

Boston, May 16.-Curley Supplies of Buffalo won on a foul in the eleventh round from Andy Watson of Boston in their bout at the Lenox A. c. last night. The men were to have gone twelve rounds for decision and up to the time of the foul blow the contest was very rugged one. During the first four rounds Supplies had consider ably the best of the encounter.
 Supplies fought himself nearly out be- fore the contest had gone half way and then Watson began to assume the aggressive. The latter got in some hard punches and jabs during the last half and several times Supplies had to hold on to save himself. Tn the eleven th. Watson drove a hard right, which was aimed for the stomach. It landed below the belt and hurt the Buffalo considerably. His seconds made a protest of foul and when Supplies had been helped to his corner, Referee Don nelly gave the boutlto him. To some of those near the ring, it looked as if Supplies had knocked the blow down and in that way it landed below the belt. A doctor who examined the Buff falo man said he undoubtedly had been hit in the abdomen.

< Al Weinig, the Buffalo cyclist-pugi- st relates a peculiar incident in con-
 ection with his recent bout with
 feorge Cole at Philadelphia. The lat
 CT caught Weinig with right hand
 .ounter which dazed him. Weinig re- n1ained in that condition all through the bout, being practically unconscious but able to see a dancing figure in front of him during the next four rounds. His intuition told him that he was to keep that figure away, and he did so as best he could in his dazed condition. He left the ring at the end of the contest, staggered to his dress Ing room. and subsequently, acted as an attendant to Bobby Thompson in his bout with Joe Grim. At the end lof Sthe second round in that contest |We4nig suddenly woke up, or, in other fwqtrds, regained full consciousness, and fo& while was at a loss to under and why he was outside tlD ring.
 t all dawned upon him quickly and
 bnly went to prove that blow on the 5ugular vein can render man semi unconscious.

A rattling fight to a finish was decid- ed in Harlem early yesterday morn ing. A crowd of nearly 100 sports men who paid $2 for choice seats saw the scrap. The contestants were Jim Smith, colored, of Boston, and Tommy Ryan, an east side welterweight. Smith formerly spared with Joe Walcott and on the strength of this he was made the favorite ill the betting. The men were to have gone to finish at each weights. The mill, however,, lasted just eight rounds with Ryan the win ner. In this round ,Smith went to the floor without being hit and he was Forthwith disqualified by the referee. Tn the second round Ryan landed heav- ily on Smiths jaw and put the negro down. This punch apparently took all the grit out of Smith. In the final round he was foored three times and when he dropped the last time without blow being delivered the decision promptly went to Ryan.

Billy Considine, matchmaker of the Metropolitan A. c. of Detroit, where Kid Mccoy and Jack Root recently fought, is trying to bring about d match between Root and George Gard ner. Yesterday he notified his broth CT George that he was ready to hold the mill some time during the latter part of next month. He also said that he would be ready to give purse or percentage of the gate receipts to the men. Gardner's recent victory over Marvin Hart and the fact that he has already whipped Root will make him a decided favorite in the betting.
