struggle to-day has been with the ore end OF

TEARS BLINDED HIM.
And John L. Sullivan Was Barely Saved
From Serioas Accident

St Louis Mo-, Sept. 23.-John I. Sui
Ivan, the most popular OF all former
ring champions, was saved from serious
injury, and perhaps from death, by the
quick action of Benny Yanger, the pride
Of Chicago. Sullivan himself says he
owes his life to Yanger
IT was during the O'Keefe. Greene bat
tie that the veteran John L. made a
speech in the ring, and received wild
bnrst OF applause. He referred to his
coming benefit, and the crowd eheered
to the echo.
When the ring hero started to leave
the ring his eyes were filed with tears,
and he missed his footing. Yanger, who
was in 0'Keefe's corner, seized the ex-
champion as he was about to fall head
first TO the floor. Had Yanger been a
second slower Sullivan would have fall
len and struck his head on the sharp
side of pail, which had careIessly been
left at the ringside. Considering Sulli-
vans great weight it IS not unlikely
that the injury would have proven very
serious.

TO Meet.

TO Meet
New York, Sept. 25.-The National
Sporting Club of London is figuring on
holding several championship battles, one
in particular twenty mill be-
tween Jimmy Britt and Jabez White for
the lightweight title of the world. Al
though Joe Cans is supposed to be the
premier in this division, it is understood
that the negro cannot get to 1873 pounds,
ringside, the conditions White demands,
which is the lightweight limit. Britt
can, however
The American representative of the
foreign club got word from Matchmaker
Betinson some time ago to arrange a
contest Britt and White. On the strength
of this Britt was communicated with
a reply was received from him yesterday
in which he said that he was ready to do
business but preferred that White should
come to this country and fight at San
Francisco.
In view Of the uncertainty of boxing
being allowed in that city after this
month, Britt agrees to 60 abroad If the
inducements are made worth while. The
English club has informed him that if
the mill Is arranged the purse will be the
largest offered BY the club, except the
$4,000 put up when Paddy Slayin and
the late Peter jackson fought in 1892.
1t is understood that the London club
intends to give between 81 500 and S.
600 for the Britt White match, not in
Gliding expenses, which will be in the
neighborhood Of $3.50, as Britt wants
this sum before he will undertake the
trip.
