Palzer claims that Tom has too quuch of an appetite for the ple pro- curable through the White Hope's fists, a circumstance which leaves Palzer, ao fhe says, with very little nourishment. Sullivan Stays On His Feet Alter Cross Lands K. O. Gelfom in ring history have fighters stayed on their feet after being knocked out, but such was the case with Paddy Gullivan, who wae rendered unconscious in the fth round by Leach Cross at the Bt. Nicholas A. C. Ghortly after the decisive round began se natied Sullivan on the jaw with a right swing which sent him staggering @gainst the ropes. Seeing he had him @roggy from the punch, Leach threw in another right to his jaw and also buried many lefts and riguts into the pit of his stomach. As Sulltvan failed to fight back, Referee Tone knew he was out; 40 he stopped the bout. Sullivan was helped to his corner by his handiers, and it was fully two minutes before he revived. In the other two ten round bout# Young Shugrue defeated Young Cohen, substituted for Patsey Kline, who was @ick, and Johnny Dundee outpéinted Packey Hommey by a small margin. pearl thd ly comet WILLIE RITCHIE COMING.
