SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2C After 20
rounds of the fastest fighting ever seen
in San Francisco. Referee Graney de-
rlrrrod the bout between. Younc Corbett,
of Denver, and Eddie Hanlon. of San
Francisco, a draw. Young Corbett clearly
demonstrated to the Immense crowd pres
ent that he has not gone back, as pome
sporting -writers would have the public
believe. Hanlon also showed that the
high opinion in -which he has been held
bv California boxlntr enthusiasts has been
justified. The contest from a spectacular
standpoint was the best ever witnessed
on the Coast, both men putting up a
clean, hard, scientific contest.
Corbetfs experience and knowledge of
the game saved him on several occasions
from tho defeat which seemed to be his
inevitable portion. But the minute's in
terval did wonders for the Denverite and
he came back at the Callfornlan always
willing and ready to take the blows which
Hanlon rained on his head ana Doar.
From the first to the seventh rounds
Hanlon had a shade the better of the con
test, but the lucky seventh was the turn
ing point apparently in the tide of battle
in Corbetfs favor. At one stage in mis
round it seemed as If the little Callfornlan
could not ward off a knockout, but his
wonderful punishment - taking powers
stood him in good stead and the call of
Umo was a. welcome sound for him.
From the seventh until the twentieth, it
was a, give and take contest and to the
pro-Hanlon house present it seemed as If
the decision should have been his. But
Referee Graney thought otherwise and de
clared the contest a draw. During the
last 10 rounds Hanlon had Corbett on
Queer street on several occasions, but
each time the Denver lad came back
strong and willing for the fray, taking
much punishment and always awaiting
an opportunity to send his right to the
head or his left to the body.
Their Strongest Points.
Corbetfs best blow developed in to
night's fight was a right uppercut to the
chin and the Californlan's heretofore al
most Impregnable guard was beaten down
on more than one occasion. Corbett send
ing in his right to tho chin repeatedly.
Toward the end of the contest he split
Hanlon's right eye open and had the
'Frisco boy's nose beaten out of shape.
Hpnlon's best blows were rights to tho
body and left to tho head and he;Qld his
most effective work at close range; When
ever Corbett stood off (from him. It -was
disastrous for Eddie, as the former in
variably rushed in. sending his Tight to
either the body or the head. Hanlon beat
Corbetfs guard down on at least four
occasions and had tho Denver lad In an
almost defenseless condition and the Den
ver lad was forced to hang on to avoid
punishment and a knockout.
On several occasions the gong saved the
Denverite. The 10th round -was all Han
lon's and It seemed as If the Denver boy
could not possibly withstand the terrlffc
punishment administered. But the min
ute's rest preceding the twentieth and
final round worked wonders for him and
he toed the scratch as strong as during
the earlier rounds of the contest. It was
give-and-take from the call of time to the
sound of the gong in the last round,
neither being able to put In a finishing
blow.
Corbett was seen In his dressing-room
after the contest and was strong in his
praise of the Callfornlan. He said that
Hanlon gave him the hardest fight of his
ring career and added that with a little
more experience the Callfornlan could
whip tho best of them. Hanlon also had
.many praiseworthy things to say of his
opponent and declared him to be the
ram est man he ever fought. He added
that Corbett was one of tho hardest hit
ters he had ever met and credited the
Denver man with being the first pugilist
In his ring cxperienco to beat down his
guard. They fought at 120 pounds ring'
side.
HnKc Crowd at TUnnsitle.
Early in the evening every -available
point of vantage in Mechanics Pavilion
was occupied: standing room was at a
premium and the police with difficulty
restrained the surging masses In the gal
leries. Even the rafters supporting the
roof of tho great building held hosts of
young enthusiasts squirming their way
along posts to overlook the ring. Sport
ing people from all parts of the Pacific
Coast and many from the East 'were at
the ringside.
Two preliminaries proceeded the main
event. "'Monte Attell won from "Bobbie
Johnson on a foul In the sixth. "Missis
sippi," a colored lad, put out Jimmy An
,thony in the first round.
Hanlon and his seconds -were strongly
tor the opinion that the decision should
lhave been with their camp and expressed
surprise that Referee Graney should have
(declared the contest a draw. It is very
(probable that one of the San Francisco
iclubs will mako a bid to Terry McGovern
to meet Toung Corbett In this city.

Spectators Express Lively Interest
In the Fortunes of the PaRlllnts.
Tho student of human nature who
wished to write a treatise on "The Slaugh
ter of the King's English." would do well
to study a. prize fighting crowd, as it
listens to a fight as It is being read by
rounds. A Portland crowd does not differ
from the usual followers of Marquis of
Queensberry, and that last night which
heard the returns from the Corbett-Han-lon
fight was not an exception. The
operator's voice droned:
R-o-u-n-d one. Corbett lands on Han
lon's Jaw.
"Gee; but he's going to win in a walk."
Hanlon lands right and left on Cor
betfs k-I-d-n-c-y-s.
"Didn't I tell yer that Eddie would

"Ah! say boy, say It by a city block.
And one on Hanlon at dat"
They mix it
"Say EOdle'll make him fink dat he's

Hanlon is forcing the fighting and the'
champion is breaking g-r-o-u-n-d.
"T"sny blooky, I'll bet ten even on the

"Why, of course," remarked a well
modulated voice, "think of the terrible
strain upon the young gentleman's nerv
ous system. It must be awfully shocking
to be pummeled by such a savage ruffian.
I'm sure the W. C. T. U. would prosecute"
them If they would be complained to."
And on It goes to the end of the fight
The crowd is not unlike the noble
Romans as 'fickle as the most reckless
Jade. The patrons of the ring agree with
the wiseacre who said. "A fool never
changes his mind." With every blow
struck there is a switching of opinions
which is voiced so that all within dis
tance can hear. It Is wonderful how they
get their knowledge. They will tell you
that they have seen the fighters, and it
Is an even bet that they have never been
beyond the free swimming pool. As soon
as the fight has been decided they will
say without a blush, "I told you bo,"
while perhaps Just a second before they
were exploiting the fine points of the
fighter who has gone down In defeat
Truly It is a study in expression and com
