Laid Down.
According TO eastern papers now. com
ing In, Joe WalcOtt made miserable
showing in bis fight with Young Peter
jackson in Baltimore the other night.
Some of the experts around the ring We're
of the opinion that WalcotJ laid down.
Here is a sample account of the contest.
From the tap of the gong ir became
apparent that Jackson aim was TO hurJ
his opponent by stomach and body blows.
Jackson assumed CT0uChiug position and
be held 1t throughout the bout. He
seemed content 20 90 I'M and take blow
on the head or neck for the opportunity
of sending I'M "a blow to Walc0tts st0m-
ach, which is known 60 De his vulnerable
spot.
THE first round was rather tame and
not a blow was struck that did a bit of
damage WalcOtt sent I'm q number Of
blows 70 the neck and head but Young
Peter simply grinned, The round was
slow one and not altogether pleasing To
the spectators
The early part of the second round
was "a repetition Of the first. CIiuches-
short body blows by Jackson aud punches
To Jackson head aud neck constituted
an that was. done WalcOtt claimed that
me was hit low but few of those ON tine
stage gave any credeuee to H. As a mat
hit his opponent Had tine latter been
struck where he claimed he could not
have risen few seconds after be was
counted ont. which he iH reality did.
THE crowd of spectators openly showed
their disgust az the tameness of tla fight
There was very little display hy either
man Of the slashiug tactics for which
they are both noted To many IL seemed
that Walcott showed the white feather
from the start. and as he has a reputa-
ished. the opinion that he laid down was
voiced By many
