Sullipan'S Showing
Surprised Them All
Didn't Get Knocked Out by HanIon, and
Many Critics Thought he Won---First
Five Rounds All His.

Draw" was the decision last night
in the fight between Kid Sullivan. of
Washington. and Eddie Hanlon. Of San
francisco. before the Eureka Athletic
and Social Club of Baltimore
n draw was satisfactory decision 70
majority OF the spectators. who were
not too strongly prejud1ced in favor Of
the Eastern boy. but If Referee Eek
hardt had awarded the fight TO Sullivan
1t would by no means have been the
worst decision in the world
Seldom has there been a bigger sur
prise in pugilsm than the splendid
showing Sullivan made last night Even
MS most ardent supporters had not
thought that he would be able TO come
so near getting the verdict over such a
top-notch fighter as Hanlon. The bet
ting was all on the number of rounds
the fight would go. and there were many
who wagered that the Kid would be
sent to dreamland before the tenth
round was over.
Rounds Saved Hanlon.
The number of rounds was exactly
what saved Hanlon Had the bout been
one Of the six-round Chicago or Phila-
delphia fights. Sullivan would undoubt-
eddy have gained the decision. For the
first five rounds there was absolutely
nothing to it but Sullivan. He had lab
bed. and 1abbed and jabbed his man
with straight lefts TO the face until his
physiognomy looked like that of the
man who threw the orange at the ST.
Patrick's Day parade
IN the sixth round HanIon began to
wake up, and landed a couple of right
ana left swings TO the neck that changed
the complexion of the affair but ne did
not come near doing enough in that
round 10 nave warranted giving him the
decision II II had been a six-cound fight
Both Showed the Pace.
At the end of the tenth round both
boys showed the effects Of the terrific
pace they had set. but the sturdy ply
sique and great natural strength and re-
operative powers of Sullivan were
much in evidence, and the opinion was
expressed on all sides that II the fight
had gone the fifteen rounds, for which
1t was originally scheduled. HanIon
would have been beaten down.
From start TO finish the fight was light
ming fast, and the spectators were kept
constantly in a state Of enthusiasm Ten
seconds after the gong rang the boys

ing. and not ring tricks. to win.
Hanlon's Skill Awaited Nothing.
Hanlon was clearly a better boxer ana
certainly a faster man than his oppo-
nent, but. as was said by several around
the ringsIde. it availeth nothing TO be
the better boxer when you can't hit
your rival and he hits you. That was
the case the greater part of the time
last night Hanlons arms moved with
startling speed. but his dangerous-look-
ing swings seldom landed in a vuIner-
able spot, and when they did they did

Sullivan's ability to reach Hanlon' s

Sullivan Strong.
Sullivan's strength was we'll illus

breaking from a clinch and HanIon was
holding on to protect himself In the
break-away when Sullivan suddenly
swung around and threw Hanlon half
way across the ring. 1t was evident
that the thing was an accident, pure
and simple, but it caused many of the
spectators TO hiss The signs of dis

TWO DOUGHTY KNIGHTS.

The sage of Esopus as well as the
great American trust buster, II we
are to believe what they say, are put
ting on their armor, sharpening their
swords and drinking blood to fire their
hearts, preparatory to going out to
fight Ihe trusts. They are going to
drive them to the end Of the earth
and then kick them Off. One is just
as fierce as the other. They will both
keep on that way>until after the cleo
tion, after which they will retire into
innoxious desuetude. Millions OF peo-
pie will gaze in wonder upon these
doughty knights while they shout
forth their challenges at the captains
of industry" but the day of battle will
never come. These doughty knights
and the trusts will make feast after
the election and all of them will sit
down at the same table The post
prandial exercises will consist OF sign
ing articles of peace until the next
election. After that the people will
desquamate their eyes, but the scales
will grow again, good and thick, dur
