Bound eighteenthMaloney seemed loth to leave his corner while Weeden was as eager for the fray as the beginning The round was in favor of Mflloneyjhow ever when the men did get together he pulling in his heavy blows on the body and a wicked drive on the forehead Before Be-fore Weedaa could retaliate Maloney dropped to eEC pe punishment Another claim of foul by Maloneys backers caused a row and a general stampede The last of the fight though gamely contested by the bruised bleeding and breathless Maloney was all iu favor of Weeden who hammered his mans body and face with every conceivable kind of blow all possessing one point of similar ity ia that they were very heavy At the end of the fortyfirst round Ma loney backers or some of them raised a yell of foul The referee would not allow it

a loud voice to Ma loney Maloney are you willing to call this a draw I dont want to kill a man Maloney accepted the situation and the fight was so decided The time of the battle which was acknowledged by all to be one of the hottest thai has taken place for some years was seventy minutes With the exception ot a bruised right eye Weeden shows no marks of the ordeal and it is believed wnniH haao ben good for forty round more Baloney on the contrary is il i a pitia ble condition Hie eyes are both nearly closed his nose and mouth badly swol len and his face hs generally been beaten black and blue over its entire sur face Added to this his wheezing early in the battle bowed be was not in good condition and if tbe tight had continue he would probably hove bee knocked out of time after mere rounds espe cially if of as severe a character as those he had pasted through He wai slow in leaving his corner nearly every time after the frat dozen rounds but it was from sheer weakness and cot the consequence of any want of pluck to do credit to the national colors he wore round his vaist General regret WAS ex pressed by the spectators that the mill ended H Oo unsatisfactory a manner and many expressions were beard of a wish of another meeting to be fought out to the bitter end without any outside interfer ence to spoil the sport and prevent the best min gaining the honors that are bis due
