Pricey Out After Five
Rounds.

| S iN'ioMIhB interesting descrip-
tion of the fight between Morgan vii
liams of this city and Young Pricev,
of Salt Lake City, which took place
at Green River week ago TODAY Is
taken from the Green River hes
patch. The Sentinel announced the|
result OF the fight last Monday but
no details of the battle have been
puollshed by any local paper:
Morgan Williams the erstwhile
champion of Colorado, won his fight
mere Saturday night by the knockout
route. His victory over Young Pricey
OF salt Lake City was clean cut one
and earned after almost five rounds of
fast milling. Pricey made a better
showing than was expected as is evi-
denced by the fact that the betting
odds We're 90 to 15. He came near
putting Williams out in the second
round with a stiff puch to the law
and had the men been fighting with
the regulation size gloves Morg would
have in all probability taken the los
ers end of the purse.
Young Pricey did not arrive until
late in the evening on No. 6. He was
unattended, having no seconds or
trainer. He looked to be in good
alighted from the train, but when
he stripped at the ring-side 1t was
clearly apparent that the youngster
was in very little better condition
than when he fought here before. He
acknowledged before the fight that
his wind was poor and said that he
had not trained day for the contest.
He is a boilermaker and worked at
his trade right along, depending up
on his work alone to get himself in
condition.
Morgan, with his manager Casey"
O'Connor. arrived Friday and did a
little road work here, after which he
rested easily and slept most of the
time until the contest. He was a
trtie fat about the stomach.
Price forced the fighting and usu-
ally landed stiff wallop as they
went together in the clinches, but his
blows appeared a trifle to high TO do
telling damage.
Williams was coll and collected
and never failed to connect when an
opening presented itself. He Is a
careful fighter with deadly wallop
which he can land from almost any
position.
Pricey put Morgan clearly to the
bad in the second, however, when the
latter was groggy from a Jolt on the
jaw. He staggered and blinked, but
the call of time gave him a chance to
recuperate.
Williams was cool and collected
and after the second round PTicey
was considerably troubled with his
bellows. He has catarrh and this to-
gether with his general lack OF con-
dition. was a serious handicap tol
his breathing apparatus.
1t was a battle between a fighter
and a boXer-and as usual the fighter
won. AS in the notable Corbett- Fitz-
simmons fight at Carson. the boxer
appeared to have the fight well in
hand, yet an opening came and 1t was
the fighter who found 1t and took ad-
vantage of the same.
The blow that brought home the
money was a quick left shift planted
in the pit of the stomach. PriceyI
fell like a log, but quickly recuperat-
ed. Williams helped him to his feet
and after Pricey had regained his
strength, the men shook hands heart
lily and remained the best of friends.
