Kound 42 Kilrain. retreating as usual, came back and led at Sullivan, who countered, and Kilrain ran away. Kilrain .fell from a light blow, Sullivan standing over and stamping on Kilrain. Kilrain's seconds claimed a loul amid a scene of great excitement, which was not allowed, rime, two and one-half minutes. Kound 4- Kilrain got another rib-roaster from Sullivan, when they clinched, and Kilrain went down without being hit, Sullivan claiming n foul, which was disallowed. Time, one and one-quarter minute. Kound 44 Almost immediately on coming to the scratch Sullivan commenced vomiting -freely, whereupon Kilrain told him he would not hit him while vomiting. Sullivan blurted out: 4,Como on; I'm ready." The latter soon got in another ribroaster, and Kilrain went down. Time, two minutes. Round 45 Kilrain landed heavily on Sullivan's neck with his left, and then retreated, Soilivaa smashed him in the ribs, when he went down, and while down Sullivan deliberately jumped on him with his feet. Cries of foul were heard all over the ring, but it was not allowed by the refer ree. This was a shameful act on Sullivan's part, and should have lost him tho battle.

rain's seconds made loud and vigorous claims of foul, but the referee would not grant it. Pony Moore said to the referee: You've got mony on Sullivan." To which Fitz patrick replied: "You're a liar." Hounds 43 to 07 Kilrain resorted to running around and dropping at every opportunity to avoid punishment, which disgnsted the crowd. Sullivan and his seconds made frequent claims of foul, which were unheeded. Kound 68 Kilrain ran around the ring. Sullivan followed him closely, hitting him in the ribs. Sullivan feinted, and Kilrain attempted to drop, when Sullivan hit him with vicious upper and under-cuts, knocking him down heavily. Time, one and onehalf minute. Kound e& Kilrain was knocked down with a rieht-hander in the jaw. From ibis until the close of the seventyfifth round, Kilrain pursued his runningaway tactics, dropping on every attempt of Sullivan's to administer punishment. At the close of tho seventy-fifth round Mitchell went over to Sullivan's corner, and asked to .have the light declared a draw, to which Sullivan aud his seconds responded:. '.'No, no." Donovan then stepped to the center of the ring and threw ud the sponge, amitt a sceue of the wildest enthusiasm. Scenes During the Contest. New Orlans, July 8. The earlier rounds of a prize-fight are not as revolting as is ordinarily supposed During the entire progress of the seventy-five rounds neither . of the combatants showed outward signs of severe physical punishment. There was not that abundant flow of blood from the nose or mouth which embellishes accounts of "scraps" between third-rate fighters. Sullivan had his ear split; both of. his eyes bunged, his neck scratched and both hands disabled. but evinced no outward symptoms of suffering. Kilrain's lip was cut, his left ear smashed, and his short ribs severely pounded, but he bled to a very inconsiderable extent, and only a big bruise, the size of a man's hand, showed where Sullivan's terrific right had repeatedly jabbed him. Later m the fight, when Kilrain began to grow weak in leg and ana, and tottered about a helpless victim of Sullivan's superiority, but greatly diminished muscular force, then the spectacle became not only revolting, but pitiable. Sullivan seems to have profited some by past experience. Ho has evidently abandoned rushing tactics. Ho did not rush to any noticeable extent, but when he did his agile and wiry antagonist, before he began to weaken, invariably landed on his jaw or choek, or some equally available locality. Sullivan was constantly on the aggressive, but there was an absence of that furious impetuosity for which he has become noted. He had learned to respect Kilrain's arm by repute, and his knowledge on that point was greatly enhanced to-day by experience. One thing is evident, Sullivan is no match for Kilrain, either as a wrestler or boxer. Give Kilrain Sullivan's immeasurable driving power and expanse of chest and shoulder and no man could stand against him. Kilrain's pluck and gameness was a theme of admiration for those who understand ring strategy and true endurance. Tho Baltimore man was practically whipped in the third round. Sullivan got in a herce blow ou his side under the heart, from which he never recovered. An ordinary man would have thrown up the sponge in the next round. Kilrain's seconds themselves acknowledged tnat the fight was over then, but with the indiflerenco of a stoic and m. the pluck of a hero, Kilrain continued the unequal struggle and ministered many a stinging blow to his adversary, and yet.in spite of this, an indiscriminating crowd, mistaking caution aud strategy for cowardice, yelled at Kilrain, calling him "cur" aud "coward," when he sought to avoid Sullivan's blow by dodging, or when he tried to ontwind him by Tetreating before him all around the ring. It is undeniably true that, after the ninth round, when Buffering excruciating pain from his bruise under tho heart and repeated knock-downs, Kilrain did lay himself open to tho charge of "foul" by falling down when not apparently knocked down. These fouls were repeatedly claimed, but never allowed by the referee. Cut all this and moro was mado np and ovcr-babanced in tho thirtysecond round, when Sullivan, after knocking Kilrain down, deliberately and unequivocally fouled the latter bv lumping upon his fallen antagonist with both knees when he lay prostrate before him. It was as unmanly an act as was ever done in the ring and should have resulted in an award of tho fight to Kilrain. Any fair-minded referee, with the courage of his convictions, and knowledge of his duty would not have hesitated an instant. But the "foul" was not allowed aDd the half-whipped man, jeered and hooted by the crowd, continued to come up smiling every time, although the certainty or, more fearful punishment to come stared him in the face. Even alter the final round, Kilrain was ready to again come to the scratch, but his seconds, tearing direful results, threw up the sponge, despite his protests. It has since trauspired that Kilrain's seconds buoyed hiru up throughout the fight, by picturing to him the etiect of defeat, upon his wife ami children. It was not deemed strange, theu, that when Kilrain was seated in his car, on the homeward journey, ore and bleeding, aud brooding over his defeat, tho big tears rolled down his cheek and melted the hearts, evcu of the rough men who accompanied Lim. The day was full of unpleasant incidents. The hoodlum element, although in tho minority, did nearly all of the shouting, aud cowed an already defeated man by their savage shouts of triumph and yells for more blood. In the thirty-fourth round they biased him for retreating a perfectly legitimate feature of ring tactics. In the thirty-bfth they hissed for a similar cause and shouted to the referee: "Make him light." In the thirty-sixth they hooted at a repetition of these tactics, tint weak as he was when they got into close quarters, Kilrain would now and then get in a lick that mado the Boston lighter acknowledge his prow us. In the fifty-second round tho crowd shouted to Kilrain: "Fight, you cur." although he was then making a tight that would have made any five of them quail. In the fifty-sixth round one in the crowd shouted: "Hurrah for Kilrain." but the response was feeble; but whe Sullivan got in a telling blow the crowd needed no cue to yell and cheer with delight. In the oixty-aecond round

the sun reappeared and added to Kilrain's distress, lie was visibly weakening and hitting wild, but whenever time was called he came up smiling a forced smile perhaps, but all the same a smile. Xh brutality of the crowd increased with Kilrain's discomfiture. In the sixty-fourth round they yelled to Sullivan to "finish him," and some shouted: "Kill him." Sullivan fought the battle of his life, and with tho exception of tho thirtysecond round, fought fairly and squarti v. Ho also took punishment like a Spartan, and never lost confidence or nerve. One finger of either hand was broken in tho fight, but no one discovered it but his seconds. He showed signs of tiring toward the end, and had to be helped to his feet when time was called. There wero periods in the fight, even long after tho eventful third round, when the issue was in doubt. Had Kilrain been in condition, the result might have been different. Just after the men had taken their positions for the tight the sheriff of the county appeared and formal! v, in the name of tho State, commanded ail present to observe the peaee. He then retired, this being all the action he was authorized to take at this stage of the proceedings. There was no further movement on the part of the authorities to interfere with the fight. AFTER THE FIGHT.

Kilrain Sajs lie Was Not Properly Trained, and Intimates that lie Was Drugged. New Orleans, July 8. Kilrain was toeing the scratch when Donovan, his second, threw np the sponge, thus declaring Sullivan the victor. Kilrain was by no means satisfied, but notwithstanding his protestations he was bundled np in a black shawl and hurried to a carriage in waiting. Kilrain, Donovan, Butler, Murpby .and Mitchell drove rapidly to the train and entered their car. Sullivan, Muldoon and Cleary entered the first coach. When Kilrain had seated himself he was surrounded by a host of sympathizing friends, who consoled him for his misfortune. Kilrain wept like a child, and continued exclaiming: "I'd him beaten." A large crowd had followed the hacks and remained standing around the coaches in which Sullivan and Kilrain were. Mr. Stevenson, who had been Kilrain's friend throughout, remained by his side and sponged him, occasionally giving him a drink of whisky and water. Kilrain would not bo consoled, but continued to bemoan the loss of the battle - which ho had hoped to win. Prof. Michael J. Donovan, of the New York Athletic Club, who so ably seconded Kilrain; Prof. Dennis Butler, of the Southern Athletic Club, and Johnny Murphy, the bottle-holder, remained beside their principal, one relieving the other in ministering to his comfort and relief. None felt the defeat of Kilrain more than did these people, and Donovan stated that though Kilrain did not waut to throw up the sponge, he concluded to do so, for his principal was exhausted from the heat and exercise as well as from the punishment he had received, but had fo nobly stood. Charley Mitchell, Kilrain's trainer, held himself aloof from him, however, but there were many other friends of Kilrain's there to take his place. As soon as tho two gladiators and other friends had seated themselves in the coaches, the train moved off at a rapid rate. Kilrain appeared to be suflering more from mental than physical injuries, and was very gloomy. At times ho would brighten up a little and smile, but these occasions were rare. His face did not betray the great punishment he had received at the hands of his big antagonist. He had a cut under the nose and one across both lips, and his left eye was slightly discolored and swollen. His right hand had been injured by a blow on Sullivan's head, and his left instep had been cut by the spikes on Sullivan's shoes, which cut clear through the leather of Kilrain's left shoe. He had received terrible punishment about the ribs, and doubtless suff ered considerable pain, but he gave no voice to his agony, if any he endured. He claimed to have been more overcome by the heat than by Sullivan's blows. Referring to the fight, Kilrain said that he had not been trained properly, and that he was not in condition when ne entered the ring, and this seemed to be tho impression of every one who saw him when he entered. Ho would work and get some money together again, he said, and would once more make a trial for the championship. He had Sullivan "done up" twice, he continued, but he had not been properly trained and was unable to take advantage of this, but he was willing to fight Sullivan again. He punched Sullivan several times, and did not seem to hit him, and he labored under the impression that something must havo been done to him: in other words, that he had been drugged. He did not have tho strength of a cat, but ho could stand any amount of punishment, but could not intlict any, as he could see that his blows were not hurting Sullivan. He complained of xthe manner in which Sullivan had deliberately jumped on him with both feet while he was down, but he should not find fault with this. He had trusted too much to his friends. One of those around him exclaimed reproachfully: "Some of your friends, you should say." Another said: "Sullivan was done for twice, but Kilrain was also, and could not take advantage of his adver sarv's condition." Kilrain lav down on the seat with his feet stretched across to the opposite seat, and coats being placed over htm ho fell asleep. When the train was crossing the trestle about eiehteen miles from tho city. Mitchell, for the first time, entered tho car and Kilrain awoke. At the siding, about a mile beyond Gentilly, while the train was at a standstill Kilrain reproached Mitchell for the condition he was in when he entered the ring. Mitchell repuca, and quite a crowd gathered around the two men in the coach. Mitchcllattributed Kilrain's defeat to its being one of his off days. A number of sporting men who knew Kilrain well and had seen him in training at Baltimore, remarked that something must have been the matter with him, for they had never seen him hit so feebly as he aid to-day. Jnhnnv Mnrnhv said it was not Sullivan who knocked Kilrain out, but the sun, for Sullivan did not hurt him much. Kilrain's condition, he thought, was mysterious, and he was over-trained besides. Professor Butler declared that he had an nonnced his belief in Kilrain, and bo had stuck to him through thick and thin. Mitchell had dropped him like a dog when tho fight went against him, but this would not he tne case wun nis oiner inenas. When the train reached the station at the head of Press street, two carriages were procured for the Kilrain party, and Kilrain, Stevenson, Donahue, Murphj, Butler. Mitchell and Pouy Moore, wero driven up town. Kilrain was conducted to a Russian bath, and after being subjected thereto, he repaired to his quarters at the Southern Athletic Club and retired to rest. John L. Sullivan, who was seen immedi ately after being conveyed to his special car, was in the best of humor, and while not talking a great deal, always made agreeable replies to any aud .all questions put to him by his frieuds or the representa tivesot tne press, iiosaiu, among otner things, that he would never enter the ring again under any consideration. He had done his share of slugging during his rather brief career in the listic arena, and wanted no more of it. He certainly did not intend to fight the California negro, for the simple reason that ho considered it entirely too de gradiug for a white man to place himself on an equality with a negro. His references to Kilrain and his fighting qualifications were of a most pleasant characier, concluding wun ine remark tnat no (Sullivan) had got more effective thumping in his contest with Kilrain than ever in his life before. Owing to the dislocation of a knuckle-bone on the first finger of the left hand, which occurred in the seventh rouud. ho was compelled to make the remainder of the light almost uncle-handed. Charley Mitchell said: "I am going to challenge Sullivan to tight for S5.000 a side m America, within three or four months. ' Parson Davis, of Chicago, said: "It was a good tight. Kilrain is a good and as game a mau as ever stepped into a ring. I don't think .Sullivan was ever in better form. He can thank Muldoon, who is a great gen eral." W. B. Masterson, of Denver, (a Kilrain mau), said: "I don't believe anvbody can lick Sullivan unless it is MitcneiL it was a slashing good game tight." Cbarle Johnson, one of Sullivan's back ers. said of Kilrain: "He is the best mau to light for a man s money I ever raw." Pony Moore said: "I am dissa pointed. He was not in condition. The third round

did the work. English people will be disappointed." Just after the fight Sullivan said to Barnett and some of his friends that he was

sorry for Kilrain and that, while of course ho was very much pleased with his victory, ho hoped that Kilrain had not been seriously hurt and he would soon be around again. It is understood that a party of Sullivan's friends are getting up a banquet for him to-morrow. Sullivan reached his boarding-house shortly after9 o'clock and quietly slipped in. IIow the News Was Gathered. New Orleans, July 8. The complete report of the prize-fight, as furnished by the Associated Press in advance of all competition, is due to the organization of the force employed for tho event. The men who did tho work were well qualified, and to them is dne all praise for the success which attended their efforts. A corps of reporters were brought from Memphis, Tenn., consisting of Messrs. Sim L. Barinds and Nathan Picard, of the Daily Appeal, and J. J. Hogan, of tho Evening Scimeter. These gentlemen were selected for their ability and knowledge of sporting events. Messrs. Picard and Barinds did the descriptive woTk, while to Mr. Hogan, who is an authority on athletic sports, was detailed the work of the ring. In this specialty, Mr. Hogan had to assist him, Mr. William Beattifl, a well-known stenographer of New Orleans, and the work of these two enabled the Associated Press to give each round fought in detail, and it is the official report of the great mill. In addition to those already named, Mr. J. Walker Ross, sporting editor of the Evening States, and Mr. Chris Lindauer, of this cit, also contributed no little in supplying valuable contributions to the volnminous reports sent out preliminary to the fight. When the night manager of the Associated Press from Chicago arrivod in New Orleans last Friday morning, accompanied by an assistant, his first move, in conjunction with Mr. J. E. McDaniel. the New Orleans correspondent of the Associated press, was to secure a special train, which had been agreed on in Chicago, to be used in transporting their corps to and from the fight. At that time it was thought the battle would probably take place within an hour's run of New Orleans. Subsequently events, however, proved the thoughtfulness of such a scheme, as to-day. when no telegraphic services could bo secured, the special train of the Associated Press brought to New Orleans the first tidings of the fight, ami two hours in advance of the regular trains which took out the excursionists. The run from Kichbnrg. Miss., to New Orleans, a distance of 105 miles, was made in three hours and ten minutes. GLOOM AT BALTIMORE. Kilrain's Home Friend Dejected Over Ills Defeat by the "Big Fellow." Baltimore, July 8. No sporting event has excited an interest in Baltimore equal to that which centered in the SullivanKilrain fight to-day. So universal was the anxiety to hear the result of the contest that many did little else during the day than inquire about the latest. Fully 1,000 persons were collected about the newspaper bulletin boards this morning.eagerly awaiting news from the ring. The sentiment of the crowd was favorable to the Baltimore pugilist, and deep gloom pervaded the faces of most of those in tho throng after the Eosting of the rumor that the big fellow" ad actually won the fight. A troop of small boys paraded Baltimore street, cheering wildly for the Boston man, while men stood silently upon the sidewalk with gloomy faces, hoping against hope and striving to discredit the rumor of their favorite's defeat. The book-makers say that although Sullivan was the favorite, in this city many dollars were placed on Kilrain. Mrs. Kilrain, this evening, said: "My husband promised to send me a dispatch as soon as he could after the fight was finished. I think that he could get a message to a telegraph station as soon as any newspaper, and as 1 have heard nothing from niui I don't believe the newspapers. I think that my husband will win the battle, and I will believe nothing else until I hear from him." Afterward a dispatch was handed her. It said: Nature gave out. Am not hurt. Jakb. And to Mrs. Mitchell, who is visiting the Kilrains: We are beat. Charlet. Announced that Kilrain Won. San Fkaxcisco, July a The interest displayed in this city, over the result of tho New Orleans fight, was almost unprecedented. Great crowds surrounded the newspaper bulletin boards, and had the benefit of all character of connecting telegrams. To add to the confusion, two afternoon papers, not having regular press reports, brought out extras as late as 40 o'clock in the afternoon, announcing that Kilrain had won, and even money was wagered in the pool-rooms,, up to 5 o'clock. Sullivan's Father In Glee. Boston, July 8. "When bulletin giving the report that Sullivan had won was displayed from tne bulletin boards, hero to-day, the vast crowds swung their hats, jumped into the air and cheered. Sullivan's father, who appeared on the scene, was followed by a jelling crowd and cheered loudly. When he finally took a car for his homo in the Highlands a crowd of men and boys followed him on a dog trot for some distance, shouting and cheering. Trouble Over the G. A. K. Encampment. Milwaukkk, July 8. At a stormy session of tho executive Grand Army council tonight a long set of resolutions wasadopted, practically stoppinallfurtherpreparatious for the National Encampment in August until assurances are given that it will bo held in this city. This action was due to tho refusal of the Mayor and Common Council to appropriate $.70,000 for tents and barracks, unless it was certain that tho Grand Army men wero coming. Eight State department commanders met in Chicago and decided to issue circulars advising their posts not to como unless a one-cent rate is granted by the railroads. This action upset all local plans, and led to the above result. If tho State department commanders carry their threats into execution, it is probable that the invitation of the city will be rescinded. Six Deaths from Drowning. Baltimore, Md., July 8. Jacob Turner, colored, aged sixteen years, and Edward Bautum, colored, aged fifteen years, were drowned j'esterday near Deal's Shore spring. In company with a number of other boys they wero in a boat which upset. Tho bodies were recovered. The dead body of Fred A.
