PHILADELPHIA, July 90.—Joe Grim, the Itallan champion, succeeded in staying six rounds with Jack Willlama, middleweight champion of this State, @t the Southern A. C. Grim made a re- markable showing, and instead of in- dulging in his usual tactics of clinching he was inclined to be aggressive. It Was expected that Williams would ao- complish what Fitssimmons, O'Brien, came up so badly dazed that Nel json | Cart er and numerous others failed to had him at his mercy and was batters ing him around the ring until the local lad became so helpless that specta- tors made a protest again he con- Unuance of the now one-sided fight.

Jim Corbett has been taking the best of care of himself ever since his recent battle with Jim Jeffries for the championship. He was as fit for that fight as a man over thirty could be. Im the Jeffries fight Corbett went in for hard hitting, a thing that he fever did before in the ring. He stood toe to toe with the giant, and ex- sehanged wallop for wallop until he was knocked out in the tenth round. Once, I think it was in the fourth round, Corbett used a trick that he had been practicing for months, and that he had hoped would win back the im championship for him. He lett hooked Jeff squarely on the point of the ne chin. Jeff staggered back a little, Instantly Corbett stepped in with « savage right hook for the same target. It landed perfectly. Jeff staggered ‘a little more, took a step back, lowered his head, and surged in toward tt again as if nothing had happened.
