BRITT WON
 ON POINTS
Sullivan Cave the Pride of the West a Grand Battle For Twenty Rounds But Lost the Decision.

SAN FRANCISCO. July 22.--Jimmy Britt is still the lightweight champion of the world. He got the decision over Kid Sullivan of Washington last night at the end of twenty round con test at Woodward's pavilion.
 The referee said, Tt was a stake horse against a selling platter"
 Britt gave marvellous exhibition of scientific boxing. His generalship was perfect, and during the whole time Sul- livan never landed an effective blow He did little leading and did most of his fighting in the clinches, when he would play his right against Britt's ribs.
 Honors were even in the early rounds of the fight Both men were cautious. Britt drew first blood, but did no seri- ous damage.
 In the opening round Sullivans few leads are mostly blocked. Sullivan forced Britt around the ring, but did not land. Most of Britt's left leads went high. He landed hard right to stomach as round closed
 In the third Sullivan kept coming up to the scratch, always finding Britt ready to meet him. Coming to the Cal ifornian, Sullivan received a stiff blow on the mouth that brought blood. Britt made the best showing.
 In the seventh furious fighting devel- oped and continued after the bell had announced the close. The two sent in staggering left to the jaw and alter hated with blows to the body before they were separated.
 In the ninth Sullivan came up fresh and began taking the fight to Britt. He put hard right to Britts jaw. sending the latter's head back. Britt returned the blow in kind.
 In the twelfth Sullivan bored in with left on face Britt put hard right to jaw and repeated it second later. Sullivan put hard left to jaw. Britt landed two hard lefts on face. Sulli- van forced Britt around, but as usual failed to connect with the elusive James. Britt put left to jaw. Sulli. van landed two rights to stomach as they went into a clinch. A terrific mixup followed. in which Britt did heavy infighting. Sullivan's swings were wild in most cases.
 Tn the fourteenth Sullivan forced Britt all over the ring. but could not land effectively 4 ,

Is where the most frightful slaughter took place. No one living has been able to describe what happened there but vivid witnesses exist in the blood smeared walls. It is from between decks that most of the dead bodies have been taken.
 The Bennington has been beached near Spreckels' wharf, and the work of taking out bodies is being prosecuted as fast as possible. Already fifty bodies have been recovered and more remain to be taken out. A barge just brought ashore five more bodies and reports that three others were waiting to be removed. All the wounded are now being cared for, and the hospitals are overcrowded.
 Lieutenant Perry was taken out of the ship so badly burned that he died very shortly afterward. Lieutenant Yates was injured, but not badly.
 Commander Young and Surgeon Peck of the Bennington were ashore at the time of the explosion. Lieutenant Yates was in charge. Lieutenant Wade was the only one of the officers aboard not injured. Lieutenant Sabin was badly burned about the hands.
 Lieutenant Victor Blue, one of the officers. was taken to hospital suf- fering from an acute attack of appen' dicitis before the explosion.
 fp go to the aid of the disabled monitor Wyoming at Port Harford and to tow her to this port. The gunboat was just about to sail on her errand.
 A dispatch sent by Commander Young says that Lieutenant Perry and 39 men are dead. so wounded, 21 miss. ing and that many are expected to die before morning He adds that there were Al casualties altogether among the ships complement of 250.
 There were no marines aboard the Bennington. Seven bodies penned be- hind boilers are yet unidentified. The vessel is almost total wreck. Lieu tenant Perry. C. E. Rushing. coal passer. and J. Kilscher. fireman, first class. are dead. One body has been identified as that of R. B. Carr, ap- prentice seaman.
 The boiler which exploded. 1t is said, was regarded as unsafe. Commander Young stated that during a recent re. turn from Honolulu the steam pressure was kept reduced on that account.
 Lieutenant Yates. executive officer in charge of the Bennington at the time of the disaster. was in the aft cabin. He rushed out. to be met by a blind ing. scaIding cloud of steam as it swept the vessel Speaking of the occurrence he said:
 "As I ran forward I passed one of our boys crawling along. There was no time to attend to individual cases, as there were SO many. About thirty of the boys were on the foredeck. all severely wounded. called for men to man the boats. and only a dozen men including officers. responded at that moment. All of the rest were injured blinded or had been driven over the side by the scalding steam"
