Referee Charley Jost held up the hands of ' both Jockey Bennett and Billy Gaffney, signifying that the fight was a draw and the witnessed the fray went away pretty-i couple of hundred or more fans who well satisfied. The Frisco featherweight undoubt edly had the best of. the affair up' un til the fourteenth round and in ' the thirteenth all but put his man away, sending him to the floor for the count of nine. The local boy, bow. ever, came back strong In the con cluding rounds and tared himself from a defeat. The fight was a slam-ban? affair from start to finish. .Indeed, It start J ed ta whirwl!nd fashion, the : first round being one of the beat of the twenty. Neither fighter wanted any time in feeling out bis opponent but commenced a fierce bombardment. Just before the end of the round. Bennett dellered a telling blow forc ing Gaffney to over and rushing him to bis corner while the crowd yelled like a bunch of Commanches.
