On the former occasion Bernstein was disqualified for butting in the eighteenth round, and to- night he was again disqualified for but- ting. He threw Gardner over his head with a cross-buttock hold, which was done deliberately, and Referee Foley im- mediately gave the bout to Gardner. This occurred in the twelfth round, but Bern- stein had attempted the same trick twice earlier in the bout. ——— Ten Eyck Wins.

This feeling between the sailor and the former blacksmith dates back to | their meeting in San Francisco several years ago, when Sharkey was awarded the decision on a foul. Fitzsimmons has always claimed that he was robbed 6f the victory on that occasion, and says that the battle to-morrow night will bear testimony to the truthfulness of his statement. Sharkey and Fitzsimmons took the final work for their contest at their re- | spective training quarters to-day. | “The smart fellows seem to think,” sald Sharkey, “‘that Fitzsimmons won a great battle when he defeated Ruhiin, but I do not think he fought well at all. He was very unsteady at times, and Ruhlin had at least a dozen opportuni- ties to beat him. I think if I had been in Ruhlin's place that night I should have got the decision over Fitzsimmons in the first round. “If he goes to slugging the way he did with Rublin, I'll bet that I put him to sleep in less than five minutes. I am just as good a man to-day as when I fought Jeffries."” | | Fitzsimmons is in better shape than when he fought Rghlin. His skin has a better color and his eyes are clearer.
