In the first round, Johas son, swinging a wild uppercut, struck Jeanette a terrific foul blow, The fou was plainly seen by all the spectato: near the ring on the Columbus ave. nue side, Jeanette doubled up and fell to the floor in distress, and, after a moment's confusion, was helped to his corner. According to all the rules J of the sport the fight could have been stopped right there and Battling Jim disqualified, But after a few min- utes’ delay the referee talked with Jeanette, and it was announced that the bout would be continued after three minutes had been given Joe in i which to recover his strength. Jean- ette was entirely willing. When the fight went on again Jeanette was cautious for a while, but soon cut loose aggressively, driv- ing right w rigat into Johnson's body as the giant ru hed him. In the sixth round Jobnson went to the front and had Jeanette in sume trou- ff ble. He rained tremendous smashes on the Hoboken man until Joe was forced to use all bis cleverness to save himself. A terrific pace was carried by both men to the ninth round. when Jea- nette's hard drives into the body be- an to tell, Jobnson was forced to old the ropes times, and his energy seemed to flag. Yet he put such force into one blow that, miss- ing, be turned a somersault in the air and nearly knocked Referee Jop out of the ring. Johnson fought like a wild man all through the tenth, and Jeanette stood in close and whaled ay with him. Jeanette, displaying his greatest boxing skill, beat John- son to the punches and had tho dusky giant very weary ap tho end, It was one of the hardest bouts seen here in months. \f \ BOSTON GETS $ HOBLITZELL, FARRELL ENTERS PROTEST.
