BUTTE, Mon., Dec. 22.—John Munroe fs only a miner in the Anaconda Mines, Dut if he chooses to-day he can boast that he made the heavy-weight cham- Pion of the world took like an amateur, ‘His four-round bout and award to him * of the decision with Jim Jeffries en- tities him to thet right. The bout was : ecided on Saturday night, and after ‘one of the most desperately fought con- tests between big men Referee Duncan McDonald gave the miner the decision. § Munroe {s the hero of Butte to-day. ‘Weil might he be, for he did to the big ex-boilermaker what Fitssimmons, Ruh- Mn, Sharkey and every other big man failed to accomplish. With one solid Blow on tho jaw Munroe sent the burly champion to his knees in the first round ef thelr bout. It was decided during Fitzeimmons and Jeffries's tour of the Dig cities. The two big men offered $260 to any man they could not stop in four rounds. Munroe accepted the chal- = Tenge, and to-day he has the $250, The bout was desperately tought. First Jeff thought Munroe was another easy mark. A smile enlightened his face, but with that thump on the jaw the emile faded. Jeffries knew, too, he had met a tartar and went into his man, aiming with every blow to make It a final one, Munroe, though, did not run away. He took what punishment was coming to him and gave out some him- 1G welf. At the end of the fourth round he q was tired, but was ready for another round if it was necessary. Jeffries, too, was tired and was puffing like a loco- motive going up a steep grade. > Jeffries Protests Decision. | = Naturally tho decision is displeasing to Jeffries. He has protested it, claim- ing that it will hurt his record.
