Morrissey or Con Coughlan. He died gume. Considered as a fight the affair was a farce from start to finish. There was | only one moment of real excitement during the three minutes and fifteen se that it lasted; that was at the start, Placke came from his corner on the run, Qumbered flercely at MoCoy and lunged out with a wild left swing. By some) strange freak it happened to land on the side of McCoy's jaw, and the “Kid” | staggered back, thrown off his balance. The giant followed ponderously, and, heaving a huge fist forward, bumped It against McCoy's ch: The “Kid” fell against the ropes and nearly went through them. He looked pale and as nearly rattied as he ever becomes, When he scrambled up it was to back away, with the Hollander in awkward pursuit. Crowd Gets Excited. ‘The orowd wus on its feet howling advice to McCoy and whooping gleefully at Pilacke. For a single instant it seemed that beef and strength were to over- ‘whelm skill and cunning. McCoy, sliding quickly away before the lumbering advance of ths man mountain, looked like some small frightened wild animal attacked by a hippopotamus. He quickly recovered from his scare, and in the three minutes that followed -cool, sneering, viclous—he took a fearful revenge for the fright that he bad endured. ‘There were four preliminaries, two hotfy contested, to usher in tho main event. Then came a flood of challenges from Ruhlin; Black Bill, of Merchantville, ‘and a host of others; Charlie Mitchell made a cheerful, muffled speech, and | Cripps, of AustraHa, and Jewoy Cook, of England and Africa, bowed and swag- Gered off. ‘There was a watt while McCoy and office. in the second round He was no Mike nds GANTS TO START FOR HOME TO-DAY After Completing Their Serie@ with the .Montgomery: Nine , McGraw’s Men will Board the Train for New York.
