with proper treatment his arm Will
round back into shape by next spring
and he hopes to be back in the big
show again, but not with the Phillies.
George intimated that he hoped that a
trade or a sale might be put though
whereby he would be able to join some
other big league team.
McQuillan grew tired of his surround
ings in Philadelphia and got In bad
with the management. He denied q re-
port that he had pitched Independent
baseball or that he has accepted AN
offer to pitch on the Pacific coast in
an outlaw league. He said he would
do nothing to injure his chances to
return to organized baseball, but he is
not very particular about returning to
Philadelphia. McQuillan has been

cally appears to be in first-class condi-

New York, again easily demon
strated his superiority over Young
Pierce, of Philadelphia, by o~utboXing,
punching and outgeneraling him in a
/ ten-round bout. To these who missed
the opportunity of witnessing this bout
It may be said hat Patsy is like a new
man, brown as a berry and fast as a
streak. His improved condition was so
marked that when he entered the hall
the most extraordinary reception was
accorded him.
Young Pierce, who is easily the best
: negro f~eatherweight in the East. when
he stepped into the ring made IA much
better appearance than when, in this
city. He was trained TO the minute.
At the bell both boys jumped to the
| centre. From the beginning the supe-
! riority of Kline over Pierce was appa-
rent. Pierce feinted with his right and
Kline landed with his left to the jaw.
Pierce came to Kline's face with a
straight right and Kline retaliated with
a beauty to the stomach Pierce then
held while Kline landed two hard kid
ney blows Just as get ready was
called Kline began an effective bonn
bardment and gained the round.
In the second Pierce scored his only
round of the fight. He beat Kline to
the jab, and landed three on the face.
Kline was content to feel his man out
and did not mix. The eagerness of
Pierce was so apparent that he gave
signs of ~uneasiness. Patsy, in a try to
the face, left himself unprotected, and
received a straight to face and left to
stomach.
In the third affairs assumed a differ
ent aspect. Kline showed here that his
right. which heretofore was "A dead
one, had come back, and the continual
jab to the face was the result. A clever
exhibition OF boxing brought down the
house, and Kline led all the way. Pierce
now began his Marathon" and raced
like a demon, but he could not avoid
the left which greeted him as he made
the turns. The fourth, fifth, sixth and
seventh were all Kline.
The eighth round was the " battle SUI
p~erfine.' Here Kline had his man all
in, and had Pierce not held on it is safe
that he would have beer in the arms OF
Morpheus. He was rocked twice by
blows to the jaw, and received as man
more il the stomach. Pierce's broad
smile disappeared, and he looked about
for a good place to fall. His supporters
urged him to hold which he did
much to the disappointment of the
Kline cohorts. The tenth was a whirl-
wind finish to the good bout The
work showed the cleverness and super
iority of the Newark lad.
In a ffteen-round bout, Patsy could
put the negro lad to sleep, for here
Pierce would be compelled to do a bit
of fighting. The bout was clean and
was a good battle.
