THE WORLD: THURSDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 4, 1904. . ARKEY Ali Arrangements for Meeting of Rugged Pair of Heavy-Weights Completed with the Selection of Date and Battie- Ground. T'S all settled. Saturday, Feb. 27, the date; the Second Regiment Ar-4 mory, on Philadelphia's Broad street, the place; the bill TOM SHARKEY VS. JACK MUNROE. Bert Crowhurst will be the referee. All this has been finally ‘arranged, and nothing short of the sudden fleath of either of the fistic knights will interfere. Six rounds, that's all; but that ought to be enough to show the Miner and the ex-Sailor off to advantage. Of course, it was hoped they would meet in a@ bout of a longer distance, but money cuts big slices of congealed water fn the match-making business. The Slowtown promoter had the goods. STRONGER CARD THAN RYAN AND O'BRIEN. Bert Crowhurst is the far-seeing promoter in this case. He made the recent O’Brien-Ryan contest a big affair, and he sees in the Sharkey- Munroe meeting a stronger card. Arrangements are already forming themselves for a big night, when the husky pair came together. Special trains to and from the sleepy burg will be the order of things, with a view to accommodating the New York throng that will be at the ringside. The Second Regiment Armory, where the historic event will take place, fs a most desirable place to hold a fight, being spacious enough to hold a fegular Horton day crowd; and then it is easily reached. ° | ‘The real article in the way of figats may be looked for when the miner and the ex-sailor shape up. It will be a fight from gong to gong. BUSILY TRAINING THESE DAYS WILL GOINTO THE RING IN GREAT SHAPE ON PUGILISM|—| RACING || SKATING }— ATHLETICSI— FEB. 27 AND ATTEMPT TO WIN RIGHT TO FIGHT .
