THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SATURDAY, JUNE 8, 1905. “CORBETT” LOSES THE DECISION TO HANLON VITALITY OF THE YOUNGER MAN PROPER SHOWS [TALENT AGAIN COMES TO HIS T Californian Boxer the Victor in the Twentieth Round.

The 1 ught the referee almost on the ¥ he It came before he had opportunity to defend himself, and he staggered back limply until the ropes stopped his progress. By this time the seconds had rushed into the nd bustied boxers to their s. Referee Homan collected his attered senses and rushed across the ring at Corbett, but the police and the seconds stopped any further trouble. As usual after a fight like this, there was & difference of opinion among the spectators as to the justness of the referee’s decision. Last night many ex- pressed the opinion freely that Homan was und influenced by Hanlon's sen- sational work in the last round. They held that a fight which goes the iimit must be decided on boxing points, and that, taking the fight round for round, a draw would have been a just decision. There were the ardent supporters of h man, who claimed that the fight could have been given to their man, and they had arguments with wiuch to back up their contentions. One thing the fight demonstrated was that neither man in his present form has & chance in a bout of any length with Jimmy Britt. The final round gave the renewed strength adage, *youth will be served.” Hanlon, despite all the desperate encounters in which he has taken part in wne »wed that his powers of recuperation have been but slightly impaired. While e it seemed for several rounds that inevi- | tabie defeat stared him in the face, na- ture came to his rescue and his fighting power gradually came back to him. The reverse in the situation was so marked and so sudden as to take the spectators completely by surprise when Hanlon showed he was still full of fight. The old power was 1t there when Corbett needed it most. Corbett’s best blow throughout « the fight was a right to the head, which “ he seemed able to get past Hanlon's guard on many occasions. Corbett did all the leading, while Hanlon, who is es- sentfally an infighter, did his best work when they stood head to head and ex- changed blows. Hanlon devoted mucb attention to his opponent’s body, and in the early stages of the fight did his most effective work there. Corbett @id not have the sharp, snappy vigor to his blows which marked his last fight with Hanlon or his memorable one | with Terry McGovern in Mechanics’ Pa- wvilion. He landed some straight to the head and to the body, but the stopping power was not there. Hanlon was also @t fault in this part of the game, as some last few years, | of the blows he landed on Corbett should have put the latter out of commission. REFEREE IS PRETTY ROUGH. The referee was not gentle in his han- diing of the men, as he broke them apart roughly, shoving each away at different stages of the fight. He favored neither man in this regard, but did not interfere with their fighting tacties. There was no decisive blow struck in the first round, but in the second Hanlon raised the hopes of his friends by rushing Corbett to the : ropes and landing right and left to the head and body. Hanlon showered many blows on Corbett and got two hard right uppercuts in return. At the bell Hanlon shook up Corbett with a hard right to the head. Corbett contented himself with jabbing Hanlon in the third round and took a hard right to the head in a clinch. Both scored hard rights to the head in the fourth and Hanlon landed two lefts to wne head which hurt Corbett. Both were fighting fiercely when the end of the round came. Early in the fifth round they stood head to head and slugged for some seconds. Corbett missed a vicious uppercut after jabbing Hanlon several times with his left. Hanlon vlocked two right swings that would have damaged him had they landed. Corbett landed his | right on the body five times without a return y in the sixth round and was then staggered with a right to the head. He came back with two to the body. Hanlon scored one right uppercut and missed another. ex In the seventh round they were clinched | for a time and each was swinging in overhand blows, which did no damage. Hanlon landed a right and a left to the body and Corbett came back with a hard t to the body. Corbett'’s nose com- ced to bleed in this round, while Han- lon’s right eye began to appear puffy. Hanlon swung a hard right at Corbett in the eighth which caught him on the back of the head and staggered him. They again assumed their favorite position of head to head and slugged away merrily. Hanlon tried a right swing, which went wide of its mark. The ninth and tenth rounds were full of fight. It was in the eleventh that Corbett turned the tide of defeat that seemed to be setting in stead- ily against him. Early in the round Han- lon gushed his antagonist to the ropes and landed right and left to head and body often. Corbett missed two swings and then sent a right to the head. Han- lon came back with a right to the head, which staggered Corbett. Just after this Corbett topped in a right to the jaw, which dropped Hanlon to his knees. The blow dazed the Cali- tornian, and he was able to make but a poor stand up to the seventeenth round. In this Corbett seemed to have gone back suddenly, although he took most of Han- lon's blows smilingly. Hanlon improved slowly but steadily until the last round, when he was much the fresher of the two. Hanlon was ably handled by Spider Kelly, Toby Irwin and Frank McDonaid. In Corbett's corner were Tim McGrath, | George Herbert and Dave Barry. Rufe Turner, Al Arens and Britt were presented to the spectators. There were loud calls for Jeffries, but if the worlds champion was in the house he kept his presence a secret. A Men Are at Required Weight. Hanlon and Corbett met at Alex Greggains' at 6 oclock and went through the formality of weighing In. The bar trembled slightly when Han- lon stepped on the scales and then set- tled back. The bar did not move with Corbett, which was taken as an Indi- cation that he weighed about 129 pounds. The boys made the weight easily, her having to do any severe work vesterday nor to resort to the enervat- ing hot baths. ¥ SRRl Hanlon a Pronounced Favorite. Eddie Hanlon went into the ring at Woodward's Pavilion a pronounced 9 to 10 choice, to the surprise of the bet- ting men. In all the betting done up to vesterday the Denver boxer was an 8 to 10 favorite. This was the opening price yesterday, but it went quickly to even money. The flood of Hanlon money was not balanced by the Cor- bett end and the Californian was soon a 9 to 10 and then an 8 to 10 favorite. It is presumed that the bettors based their calculations on Corbett's last fight with Nelson. On that occasion Nelson was vastly improved over his form in the first fight with Corbett, while the latter was palpably not at his best, despite the careful training he received. Uftasr 75 WL Perliminaries Are Fast. In the first bout on the card Joe | Reilly stopped Billy Sulllvan in the third round. Reilly knocked him down in the first round and nearly had him out. In the third Reilly punished his opponent severely and Referee Shuler stopped the unequal contest. George Peterson and Frank Mayfield, two hard-hitting welter-weights, made their debut as professionals. They went ten desperate rounds, the decision rightfully going to Peterson. et $TL | Gate Receipts for the Fight. The total gate receipts at the Hanlon- Corbett fight were $673950. Of this the club's share was $3369 75. Hanlon recelved $202185 for his winner's end, while Corbett’'s share was $1347 90. | ——————————— | NELSON AND SULLIVAN GO SIX ROUNDS TO A DRAW | Battling Dane Is Hammered Flard by | Washington Lad, Who Rains Many Blows on Head. BALTIMORE, June 2.—The six-round fight to-night between Battling Nelson of Chicago and Kid Sulllvan of Wash- ington was decided a draw by the referee, But to the spectators Sullivan seemed to have much the better of it, landing on Nelson's head and meck re- | peatedly and usually getting in a stiff ! punch in breaking from the frequent clinches. In the fourth round he knocked Nelson through the ropes. | Nelson’s blows were nearly all delivered at close quarters and he showed an in- clination to hold more than the spec- ‘ tators thought proper. e IMELY RESCUE. | g EDDIE HANLON, MARRIED AT TWO IN THE MORNING San Francisco Actor and Kansas Girl Wed in New York.

The San Francisco County Cricket Club, through its secretary, H. E. Boul- ton, a few days ago requested the sec- retary of the California Cricket Asso- ciation to call a special meeting, at which its delegates would propose an addendum to rule 5. This rule pro- vides that a member of an affiliated club who is delinquent in his dues or assessments to his club may not play for another affillated club. The San Frahcisco County Club desires to add to this rule the words “This association shall have the power to expel from taking active part-in any cricket game a club member who by his conduct on {or off the field has made himself ob- ljectlonah]e and undesirable. A speclal | meeting of the city clubs may be called Iat any time to act upon this rule, such action to take effect Immediately.” Af- ter the secretary of the association had issued the notices for the meeting he discovered that a special meeting can application in writing of any three di- rectors of the association.” The no- tices have, therefore, been recalled.

REDDING, June 2.—A terrific storm raged to-day near Weaverville in Trin- ity County and in Eastern Shasta. Near Weaverville a miner’s cabin was struck by lightning and destroyed, the brick chimney only being left standing. At Palo Cedro a horse, driven by Edna Lilly, the 17-year-old daughter of D. W. Lilly, a prominent farmer, was frightened by the lightning and ran away. The girl was thrown out of her cart, receiving injuries that probably will prove fatal.

SCHMIEDER COMMITS SUICIDE BECAUSE OF WORRY Superintendent of Spring Valley Water Works Finds Body With Loaded Pistol by Side. Otto B. Schmieder of 40 Cumberland street was found dead near Lake Mer- ced in South San Francisco by Super- intendent C. D. Hyland of the Spring Valley Water Company yesterday. There was a new pistol in his Jap and it is thought that death was self-in- flicted. Schmieder was not given to speech and his friends knew very little of his personal affairs, but lately he was despondent and much in need of money. The cause of suicide was probably worry over his luck. He was re- ligious and had quotations from the Bible in his watch. Schmieder had a wife and three daughters living at 1233 Eddy street, but he has been separated from them for several years. ~ Mrs. Schmieder formerly conducted a delicatessen store at 743 McAllister street. Schmieder left home Thursday morn- ing saying nothing of his intentions, but it was presumed that he was ‘o-] ing to work for Markley & Winner, for whom he had worked since last !
