BOSTON, Nov. 7.—After ten rounds of fast boxing and incessint fighting Patay | Sweeney, of Manchester, N, H., offectu- ally disposed of Shadow Morris, the New Jersey wone,” last night at the Lenox Athletic Club in what was to have been a twelve-round bout. It wos Sweeney's first appearance in Boston for many months, and, while | jetably lower than when seen e last, he retains the aggressiveness which made him famous in the ring a few years ago. Morris also demonstrated that he is a busy boxer, and the result was that the encounter was one of the best seen at the club for some time. The bout began by Sweeney jabbing PATSY SWEENEY WINS FIGHT BY A KNOCKOUT/T Peter Maher, who is going to swap wallops with the man who scored a decision over Jeffries, says it will be Jack’s last demonstration.

Maher’s Right Will Be in Play. with his left to the face and working his right hand to the body in tl jclinches, Sweeney soon had the colored man in a weakened condition. In the tenth round both went to work with a will. Morris forced the boxing in the first part of the round, but he soon tired, and Sweeney again assumed the aggressive and in the clinches pounded his right to Morris's kidneys and ribs, alternating with lefts to the stomach and head, A atiff right cross flush on Morris's jaw ya him down for the ely arose and tried to ts by cllnohing. him every secon dun weaving hin “8 and finally suc down, a succession of rights to the jaw and body putting him down and out.
