LOWELL MAN WENT TO THE FLOOR WITHOUT BEING HIT. Clinched Fitz Around Hips as If Afraid of His Lite--Tom O'Rourke Once Left His Corner Because He Was Ashamed of Gowardice Shown by Gardner. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Nov. 26.—The gross gate receipts at last night’s battle between Fitzsimons sand Gardner were about $30,000. They fought for 60 per cent. of the gate, which amounts to $18,000. This gives Fitz for winning $13,500, Gardner’s losing end is $4,500, There is a well-defined and out-spoken impression here to-day among fight toiuowers that the very poor suuwing Gardner made against Fitzsin- mons was due to nothing more or less than cowardice. _. After the fourth and. fifth rounds, when “old man” Fitz.hurt him-so terribly, Gardner fought in a decidedly chicken-hearted and half-frightened- .o-death manner, Several times he dropped to the floor without being hit, his leads Were sent over as if. ne was afraid to get within a mile of Fitz’s flying fists, and time and again he rushed in and clinched Fit: about the hips and hung on as if in fear of his life. Were Gardner's record as to cowardice clean no such charge could ne brought against him, but the night that he quit so badly in a fight in Brooklyn, N. Y., with Jimmy Handler, that his then manager, Tom O'Rourke, left his corner in disgust, is still fresh in the minds of the Eastern sports who were at the ringside last night. } “YOUNG CORBEIT’ TELLS | STORY OF THE BATTLE); BY “YOUNG CORBETT.” WORLD’S FEATHERWEIGHT CHAMPION. MECHANICS’ PAVILION, SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 26.—Old Man Fitzsimmons, the eighth wonder of the world, went twenty rounds " here before the Yosemite Athletic Club last night and took a decision and a title away from the much-touted Light Heavy-Weight Champion of the World George Gardner, of Lowell, Mass. Tt was a disappointing fi; ight and brought out the following: three | points very plainly: °. That Gardner has been very much overrated. That the Fitzsimmons “punch” has taken to) the tall grass, ' That ‘‘Old Man Fitz” is a myth; barring the loss of his punch, he’s younger than ever, Gardner's youth and sifength and much vaunted cleverness were: lost in the woods betore the ring generalship, the blocking and stalling | and backing.and tilling of “Foxy Grandpa Fitz.” Keteree Eddie Graney’s decision was the enly o::: possible. My predictions in yesterday’s Evening World, | when | said Fitz was a sure winner, were veri- fied. Fitz won, and won on the bit, all the way, ‘ The “wise money” that forced the odds against the old man from | ten to six to ten to nine turnec out to be “foolish money.” Gara- ner’s followers looked as wise asa tree full of owls all day yesterday 3! after it was all over you couldn't find a Gardner men in 'Frisco with a| Very Dad one. 1C Was Yriuaue at times, full of dash and vim and'go, and old Bob waded in with ail his old spirit. » While I Tooked to see Fitz knock the Lowell man out,-Gardner was ‘ the real disappointment of the battle.
