NEW YORK, jan 29.-Jem Driscoll

Paramount A. c. last night, n al
though Unmatched as to weigh, Dris-
coll had it all his own way in science,
skill and judgment. Only once or twice
did Mario get home real ones on the
little fighting machine. The first round
found both men doing a pretty bit of
posing and were clearly sizing each
other up. Driscoll showed at once that
he was a clever, shifty little man. Al
the bell a swing of Mario missed that

Welshman had it landed, but Driscoll
wasn't there.
In the second Driscoll gave a pretty
exhibition and landed whenever he wanted,
and the italian was unable to reciprocate.
1t was all Driscoll up to the call of time.
The third found Mario playing chess. He
had tapped his claret. In the fourth Dris-
coll jabbed, swung, uppercut and hit and
got away. with the best show of footwork
The fifth found Mario trying TO send in a
sleeper. but his left eye was fast closing.
He landed a few good ones on the face,
however. and the round was clearly
Drjscol1 came back in the sixth and
round seven found each man trying for a
knockout. There We're many clincies, but
lD,riscoll was always the leader, ever iab-
bling In the face. It was Marto's round in
effective punching, for his twelve pounds
extra vas telling. In the eighth Driscoll
worked out OF two bad holes by skilful
wriggling. With science added to his
gameness and punch Mario could have
ended Il right there. The ninth was Dris-

He was going fast at the finish.

Men Will Meet Again in Ten
Round Fight at AS Pounds
on March 9.

Acre Club in New York city, were re-
matched yesterday at the Office of THE,

round bout at the same club on March 8.
Leary thinks that he was given the
short end of the last bout, and insists
that if he did not beat Savage in the
fight he never defeated any man. The
Gladstone boy is really sore over the
verdict and says he will finish Savage
before five rounds when they meet
again.
On the ott or hand. Savage claims that
his right hand is out of commission, aud
was before he entered the ring. He says
that il his right hand had been right he
would have beaten his opponent.
The bout was delayed in order that
Savage be given an opportunity of getting
his arm in condition and also TO allow LeIry
TO make weight.
According to the agreement OF yesterday.
both men must weigh in at 145 pounds az =
O'Clock on the night Of the fight. Both sides
have posted a forfeit guaranteeing this
weight.

Joe Kelley is to manage the Toronto
Eastern League Club this season. A con
tract was signed yesterday whereby the
former manager of the Boston Doves viii
again take charge of the Maple Leafs.
TWO years ago Kelley managed the Toronto
team and landed his club in first place at
the end of the season. He is popular in
Toronto, and the Canadians are well pleased
that President McCaffcrty. of the Toronto
Club, has succeeded in again getting Kelley
to lead their team for another year. BY
signing this contract the controversy be-
tween Kelley and George Dewey, president
OF the Bostons, is ended. Just what the
terms of the agreement are have not been
made known When Kelley left the To-
rontos he went to the Bostons under a Two
years contract at $500 I year. After se.s-
ing one year of the contract time Mr.. Dewey
deposed Kelley. The latter took his case
to the National Commission and was sus-
tanned. In the meantime, however. Dewey
had procured another manager, and Kelley
contemplated bringing a civil action for his
salary for The second year. The signing
with Toronto, il is understood, means that
he and Dovey have compromised their lif-
feI ences.
