THE OMAHA DAILY BERIT"FRIDAY, SEP on ail aides, all these confused and tended to confuse the biy man of Boston. He never had been so puzzied before. The sonsation was new, of the vounger man was A revelation to Suili- van, who in his bost days had never pos. sossed such pugilistic elements, ‘I'hen add ton years difference in age and the condi- tions that contronted Sullivan have been fairly stated, “Bu; Idid not run away,” the big fellow almost sobbed. **Lock us up in a room—just lock me in a room with him and see what 1 could do with him."” Then he relighted the sodde which he held between his raw lips, '“llutlm licked me—yes ho did, he icked mo, and let it _go at that,”” ho biurted. “I glve him all the credit he waats. He licked me squarc enough, but Lam old, I am. Let him go through what 1 have. Lot him knock them all out for twelve years and then see if be can do any better than I did. But my father and mother put somo sense in thi {elumsily spearing a his temple with & big index finger] and I know when I'm licked, I do, Yes, he licked tte champion, and now he's champton. Let him take care of it as #ood as 1 did, thav's ail, 1 ain't kickiog," and so rambled on the defeated champion. After w while he went tolie down in the club house and fell usleep. “Nono So Poor as Do Him Honor.” And how different the attentions paid him now for those hourly bestowed upon him yes- terday. Then all his friends and trainers were at his beck and call. Kach flew to do his bid- ding and to satisfy any wish, Today ho was alone among the Kindly hearted strangers at the club house. Handsome Dan Murphy was about the only one of the Sullivan ounfit who was attending to_the ex-champion. Curious scrubbers in tho bath department at tho elub stared at the unsteady fighter os he strolled about the baths in his bathing trunks, listen- ing to his maunderings. Wakely ana John- son and Moran, his backers, wero blocks away at a hotel; whilo faithful Phil Casey was packing up for the journey and Jack Ashton was drinking iu o party whose cbief occupation was admiration ot Jack McAul- iffe, who was all about the barroom. Thus shift the foriunes of pugilistic war. At the conclusion the new champion was surrounded by a crowd who shook his hand until 1t was sore, He was then carried off to his rooms, whero he found telegrams awaiting him from all parts of the country. Corbett Drinks Only Milk, Champalgn corks then began to pop and many healths were drank to the new lumin- ary. Corbett himself declived to drink, saying he did not waunt to be like other pugilists; that milk was good enough for him. At 1o'clock tho new champion was permitted Lo retire ana_dream of the honors that had beea showered upon him. Corbott will join the traveiing troop with which he has been exhibiting himself here, and will at tonight's performance be handed the Olympia club's check for $45,000. A benefit to Sullivan_is being projected to take place in Now York. Corbett has offered $1,000 for a box. The exodus of taient gun—that is, those who are The fact that these are ~ not more fluancially reduced 1s owning to the absonce of Corbett money before the fight. Corbett this morning was ex- uberantly happy, receiving much attention from the members of tte athletic clubs of the city and the talent. Telegrams continue to pour in on him from ali parts of the world CGeorze Dixon saw the fight and enjoyed the smashing that Sullivan got. *Corbett made a monkey of Sutlivan, jusu as 1 thought he would. My wishes were with Corbett and my money” went on him. The winner 1s very cleve Tom O'Rourke, who knows a fighter when ho sees bim, was in the zroatest of spirits when the battle was past. He said botore the fight that iv would result just as it did, and he outlined Corbett’s tactics. *‘Corbett won, us I predicied, and a clear head pre- vailed over brute force and viciousndss and curried the day." Jack Havline, who has spent a lifetime in the ring, could not tell how it happened. I was ou Suilivan,”’ be explained, “and I bave mot recovered from wy surprise. What licked the big fellow? Wiy, tho other man was too clever; that isull thereis to iw" Little Johnny Grifln seemed to be pleased with the result, “The profession will bo olavated by Corbett’s victory,” he remarked. *I'm glad he won.” Challenge from Pete Jackson, ocigar butt and swolien has be- solvant, from town Parson Davies came down to the press stand while tho crowd was cheering and an- nounced to a number of gentlemen who wero souted there that in a day or two ho would issue a formol chullenge to Corbett to fight Peter Jackson, the new American champion, 10 fight to o' finish for tho championship of the world for a large wager and the bigeest purse that would ve offsred by any American club, He announced his chal- lenge in o business way. Askea his opinion, he said: “As I'said bofore, I thought it would bo a short fight or a very long one, and that Cor- bett was to win. It was a good fight.” Police Captain Barrctt had a bit of an opinion w express. "I think as everyono else; there is no chance for a variety of opinions. The battie was all one way.” Joe Goddard bud a special interest fu the fight. Ho wauts a chance himself at the victor, und he did not soem beforehand to bo particular who. “I waut to fight Corbott mysell,” he authorizod the Associated Press ropreseutatlve to say, “for 810,000 u side. I have my monoy hero and am ready to put it up now.” rold-You-So Talk. Billy Madden mnst have been pleased at the licking the big fellow got, for he pre- sented a big roll that he had won and had his opinion confirmed. “I can’t see how any one could pected o different result. It was hardly Iikely. Sullivan’s day had gone. As be smd, he wentup a time too often. Everybody knows that he has lived too fast. No phy- sique conld stand the clip. Corbett is the greatest man Sully ever met. People Inughed at me years ago when 1 tried to gev bim and called him & priuce. I an ahead 9,000, Walter Camnpbell, the lightweight, asked for his views, said: “Corbett 1e one of the greatest men 1 ever saw. Billy Mad- den told me that he thought he was clever, but believed he lacked judgment. 1 was agrecably disappointed. = Sullivan used bad judgment from start to finish, Whenever ho hit with his left. he fell short. Thén when he bit with his right he generally missed Corbett. He is u world-beater and the best T ever saw,” Alf Kennedy was sorry he was not in the witnwg class, but he hud a front seat never- theless. “itwas & fine fight,” is what bo bad to say, “Corbett’s acuvity carried the duy over Sully’s age. Suilivan is u back. number. He was too old to fight. In fact, none of these wen have any license to go in the ring when they are past 30 againsta ciover young man with speed and endurance.

New Onveaxs, La., Sopt. 8.—Many people observed the Livid appearance of Jack Mc- Auliffe as he stood in Sullivaw’s corner and 8aw the zreat champion of old mowed down in & pitiful manner. Jack was as white as a sheet and looked more like & warble statue than & buman being. He thought there was 0 man on earth to compare with John L. Sullivan and be did not hesitate to baci Lis ovinton with all the money he had on earth. So he gave Dick Roche his check on tho Bank of Comuerce of Now Orleans for $15,- 250, all of which he requested Kocho to play on Sulliva for him. He was so confident in the big feilow’s ability to win that he even went 80 far as to borrow §,000 and put thatup bimself against $2,800, cousequently Jack WAs more than mad whben he saw how the tide was flowing. It was hope against faith, aua each round brought the dreaded reality to bis vision. He was worked almost fnto a frenzy by the time the kuook-out occurred. Jack folt that bhe had lost everythiog on eartn and that it was simply & case of golng back nud peglnning lLife over again, A mill stone was removed from his heart, however, when ho uscertained from Dick Koobe that his $18, 250 still remained 10 tho bank, s the loog: headod Roche knew more about the uncer- talnties of plunging than bis yourg friend, #0 be quietly beld back the check and put #3800 or on Sullivan for Jack, saying that there w‘o‘a‘:‘ o such odds between the two men aud that i bird o the haud was worth The lightning flash-like scienee | lar himself, although he won over $10,000 on ‘ two in the bush, Roche did not_bot one dol- | Mo iliffe-whipping Mver and lost a small amount on Skeliy. Ho liked Sutlivan, butho 18 t00 old & gumbler to be tempted to give awav to snch odds. Some Sports Who Did Bet, The biggest loser of the day as far as can be ascertaiaed was smiliug John Kelly of New York, the ex-base ball umpire, who backed the great champion of champions for 1,000, an amount. that would carey an ordi- nafy mau through life yery comfortaoly. John felt the loss greatly, but it did aot break his face in the least, as the same old smilo lignted up his countenance as he said | with a sigh; “I will have to commeuce all over again.”” He was not jovial over the situation, but took it in a sensible manner and said a fellow fn the bottiog business is liable to get it in tho neck at any minute, and often when he thinks ho has the bizgest chances of winning, or as the sports say has “'a cinch.” One of the heavy betting membors of the Manhattan Athletic club of New York, who bet on a “dead sure thing,” created no little amusement by going into the pool rooms about 6 o'clock last night and asking them if they would kindly cash bis ticket for him, as he was going home at 2 a. m. on the Man- hattan speclal train, and would not be able to remain over until morning to get his monoy. There was a suppressod gigglo and @ broad grin on everybody’s face. The gen- tleman had put up $50 to win $16.50, and he was very anxious to get 6.0, “Big Diamond’’ Bill Brady was one of the by- standers, and ho hoiped the heavy betting Now York dude out of his predicament by offering to cash his ticket. “Thank you,” said the club _man, handed his ticket to the genial Brady. The latter smilod pleasantly and ~stepped back, saying, ‘‘Afterths fight, if you please.” He had to promise that ho would surely bo on hand at the moment the flzht was over. Braay kept nis word, but tho swell Man- hattan man must have lost Lis way, as ho had not returned up to the time the special lefc for New York. New Yorkers Very Sore. If there was over a crostfallen crowa of sporting peoplo, it was the Manhattan club contingent of Now York, They came ners full of enthusiasta for Sullivan and staked their money on tho issuo. They came on a spooial train and counted on_making it_the banner train from Now Orleans to New York, and, as Mr. Plake of the Munhattan Athldtic 'olub, who was 1n_ charge of the party, olamed yosterday after- noon, they had bought” up all the red, 'whito and blue lights to bo found in New Orleans, and they intended setting them off all along the roaa on their way home. They were simply going to take tho whole country by storm. Mr. Sullivan did not win and it is fairto presume that this colobrated display of fireworks did not take place. The Manhattan eontingent will hold their bountiful supply until July 4, 1893, or quietly soll tho stuff ata discount to some second hand store. Arthur N. Conway, reprosenting a roll of $3,000 for some Saratoga man to bot on Corbett, only got up $1,200 at 3tol. Ho could have placed the whole $3,000, but a halt was called ou him until furiher' notico and the notice did not come, and Conway is cogitating over what he could have done with the balance, Corbett’s ¢ Jim Corbett showed his gonerosity in a most, romarkable manuer last night at tho St. Charles hotel, when he sent word to Sullivan that he would not only spar four rounds with him ut nis benefit to bo bold at Madison Sauare garden Septomber 27, but would take a vox and pay $1,000 for it. When Corbott went to Sullivan's corner and holped 8im to his chair. he held out bis hand and smd: *John, will you shake bands with me ! and Sullivan replied, “Yes, my boy. I'm wlad it was you that won." When Sullivan reachoed the botel he said to an old friend: * Well, my rosebud, Jack MeAuliffe, the only undefeated champion of tho three—Dempsey, Sullivan and Me- Auliffo—wiil spar two rounds at my Madison square benefit September 27, and two days later I will commeuce a week’s engagement with Hyde & Behman at_their theater in Brookiyn at a salary of $1,500 a week, wita the privilege of prolonging it three weeks, “There was cousiderablo talk last night of a serious nature regarding tho stake money on the Sullivan end of thostring. It was said by some very prominent sporting men that while Chaviey Johnson and Jimmy Wakely got credit for being the backers of Sullivan, therois good grounds for the belief that neitherone of them had a doilur upin the stakes, but that the whole $10,000 had beon put up by Percy Rockwell, who has since died and there wasa possibility of the stato sutng the stakeholder to recover the money. “Parson” Davies, who won a large amount of money on Corbett, will issue u challenge in a few days in bebalf of Peter Jackson to tight Jim Corbett for a stake such as he will then name, or that _can be agreed upon and the largest purse offered. & Back to Mrs. Jim, Cbampion Jim Corbett will bid adieu to his New Ovleans friends tomorrow morning and in the bezinning of next week the fistic wor der will again be in the arms of bis wif Corbett people have engaged a special train on the Pieamont Air line, iwhich will leavo ticre tomorrow worning at 4 o'clock. Corbett will be escorted to the train by & commiltee of theSouthern Athletic club, and there will be s rousing send-off given the popular young pugilist, notwithstandiog the early hour. Delancy thinks that Sullivan could have been whipped al any time afwer the first round, but ho advised Corbett to bo slow and Corbett followed his advice, although he did it with roluctance, desiriug to show tue crowd what he could do. Sullivan was as fine 8s a feather in the opening,” saia Delancy, “‘and better than he was ever befure. Corbett will never meet Jackson again. You may make this public. We are agninst fighting negroes any more, and we aro particularly catering to the wishes of our southiern frieads 1 this mat- ter. Bosides Corbett has bested Jackson already and nothing is to be gained vy fight- ing ugain, We will pay no attention to Mr, Mitchell and for the present will ignore all challenges, as wo have engagements very far ahead.” Corbett came down town this morning and visited his friends, He was cheered wher- ever he went. as ho orosity, CISN'T K Cioklod to Death Ovor Her Husband's Vietory. New Youk, Sept. 8,—The World says: *#As you don’t happen to bo the wife of one of the greatest pugilists that tho world has ever seen, of course you don’t kuow how it feels to sit 1n a room 2,000 miles away from where your'husband is tighting the man who for years had boen recoguizod s the man who could whip any other huwan being on carth.” A pretty, fair-haired, dark-oyed woman did that last nignt. There are some peopie who have wondered how & woman feels when ber husvand is taking part in & big tight, It 13 a frightful nervous straiu. As neavly as @& man can compare, Mrs. J. J. Corbett feit last night during the fight very much as the novelists sav the ancient young women used to when their sweotnearts went forth (o meet rodoubtable knights, Murs. Corbett dislikes fighting cordially. But she is proud of her big handsome hus- band, anc no one among the thousands in the clvilized world who forgot eversthing else over the big tight was soanxious for Corbett to win as his tall, graceful wife. It was a few minutes before 10 'oclok when a carriage drove up in frent of the World buildiog, and Mrs. Corbett and her friends alignted. She wore & blue olaret Rowu, charmingly made, aud a big bat with foatburs 16 it Just w Trifle Flagety. With Mrs., Corbett was Mi: Blauche Howard, with eyes black #s night and Lair to mateh them, She was dressed in black. Mrs. Mundebauw, in a° soft hght summer dress, was with them. Their wuterest in the fight was scomingly as great as that of Mrs, Corbett. Tho ladies were taken to the editorlal rooms and were ushered uto 8 roow prepared for them. Mrs. Corbett sul ou oue side of the table, Miss Howard on l.h:‘nlhnr. while Mrs. Mandobauw sat on the end. There was a quivering sod biting of lip; @ trembling of eyelids, 8 contraction of the puplls and little “nervous movements of the bands. There was not a particle of fear Among them. Unaerneath thelr nervousness was 8 beliof firm as the hills that Jim must win. Thoy Lappea thefr foet and trembled s the shouls from the crowds on the streets renched their ears, But s70n the roports began to come and the mossenger rusked in A little_bo:tle of salts was placed on the table. Your wie woman is always prepared for emergencies She Wanted to be Hugged. The ladios followed the different stages of the fight with varying expressions, but when the messengor bringing the result of the last round entered the room there was something in his face tuat made them look at him expectantly. Toe smile of the messengor was gotting broader and broader, The women were dancing in their seats and blink- ing their aves nud smiling and looking as it they wanted to scream just as loud as thoy knew how. “It'sall —— —— over," said the messenger, vory much out of breath, -He's won." He looked at Mrs. Corbett. “Is it trual” exclaimed Miss Howard. ‘rue, true! Of course it 18, roplied Mrs. Combett, and then thoy shouted and clapped thsir hands and hugged each other, “Isn’t it erand; isn’t it glorious,girls! Hug me tight! Oh, Jim, Jim! 1 knew you would do it.” Then they all fell in each other's arms and shod u tear or two for pure joy. Thon they cried out and shouted and insistod that they were the happiest people on earth, ‘I'hey would have given anything to be able to fly vight off the roof. 1t 13 a good thing to 0o psople when they are thoroughly happy.- Few peoplo ever get 80 happy as were those women lnst night, They pitied and spoko seornfully of Sullivan and said that Jim was the greatost man who ever lived—und this all in one broath. Rather Be Champion Than President. After tho first ebulition of joy had cooled down they began to roalizo their happiness. “Just think, Jim fs the champion of the world, dear,” said Miss Howard in awed tones, “Yes, I knew ho would be; I just folt it in my bones.’ *He would not trade with the president of the United States, would he?" “No; I don’t thick he would. I have always hated fighting befors, but now I'm glad Jim’'s o pugilist,” said Mrs. Corbett nawvcl Then sho remembored that sho must sond some telegrams, Iho first was to hor hu; band. This is it: o J. J. Corbett, Olymplo olub, New Orleans: Biess your heart, Wo wero not overconfident, were wo? OLLIE. This was sent to Corbott’s father: To P. J.

She did nov take timo to put on her recoption costume, but clad in u preity light bluo wrapper, fixed herself com- fortably and read all about it. Nota comma, quotation mark, leteer or “syllable escaped lier notice. *Wasn't that nice of Mr. Suliivan to say what he did?” she asked, an1 then, woman- tike, sho proceeded to commiserate with Mr. Sullivan, : Mrs, Corbett showed the reporter tho fol- lowing telegram received this mornine, which would tend 1o show that her very distin- guised busband is In a merry mood down at the Crescent City: “Cheer up. Chorrios are vipe. Will be home Sunday evening,” *I'ie oxpression, ‘Cherries are ripe, is a favorite onoof Jim's when he is feeling preuty good,” said the pugilist’s better half. “Ishould judge from it that ho and his ds are enjoying thomselves this morning e n little mixed. Mrs, Corbett was ignorant of what Mr. ott's movements wouid beon his rotura. There was joy all through the Coleman house this morning. A majority of the om- ploves had a bet on Corbett, principally on account of ats being Corbett aud his wife's favorito hostelry. Corbett's picture in the corridor has been adornea with a big flag, and asign in big letters reads: JAMES J. CORBETT. CHAMPION OF THE WORLD. A teleeram was received at the hotel by Manager Brady, ordering a brass band to meet tho returning party al the depot and 0scort tho victer in state to the hotel Sorry for John. “Poor John,” is the most frequent ex- pression in regard to the ex-champlon. While he has made many euomies by his overbearing acts when in his cups, still Sullivan has been looked upon as the one man to protect the pugilistic -championship of the world and keep it ou our side of the water. Doubts are freely expressed as to Corbett’s ability to retain” the honoras long as the man he bas just defeated. Said an oid sport, and he voiced the majority of opiuon: “*Well, so iUs Corbett. Ho is a good man: but there never was but one Sul livan, and there never will be. Poor Johin,” wrry Was In It, SaN Francisco, Cal, Sept. 8.—Corbett's brother Harry was scen shortly after the news of Jim's victory was received. He was very much elated over the fight. On being askod if the result was anticipated by him, he said he had expected 1t to the extent of $10,000 and had won considerable more than that amount.
