The fight was not satisfactory from @ny angle and Bat Masterson gave a Sorry exhibition as referee, making no effort to control the men. It was un- flerstood that the men were to break lean, but after the fight had been Started the referee claimed that this Was not the understanding. ‘The men entered the ring shortly after 4 o'clock, Root looking to be in superb condition, McCoy seemed a trifle fat.
