A merci ful referee probably saved Eddie Han Ion from being killed by Young Cor bett last night when he stopped their contest In the middle of the 16th round For the two rounds previous 'Referee Graney had begged' Hanlon's seconds to take their man out of the ring, but they kept the game youngster' at it, and finally Graney, fearing a fatality might result, ordered the tight stopped No man ever received such terrifflc punishment In a San Francisco ring and probably Young Corbettls the only man in the, country wno coum administer such a beating tq Hanlon. The San Frantlsco boy was carried to his corner, still conscious, but unable to walk, and his seconds worked vig orously to revive him. The terribly beaten lad however.com menced to vomit blood and things looked very serious for him (or a short time. He was finally revived and was carried from the ring by one of his seconds. Before he left Young Corbett paid a high tribute to Han lon's skill and gumeness ana saiutea his brother prizefighter wun an ri fectlonate kiss. It must be said for Corbett that he was as merciful under the circumstances as he could be. During the 14th and 15th rounds he, too. was anxious to have the fight stopped In order to save Hanlon need less punishment. At no time was Corbett in danger Hanlon's peculiar and effective de fense was all that saved him from a knockout. It was not until the 13th and 14th round that Corbett showed what he couM do. The men were allowed tw-ilght In clinches, and Cor bett, leaning his head against Han lon's shoulder, and with his arms free, would punch him in the stomach with his right and swing fierce short lefts on his jaw. In the luth round Corbett backed Hanlon into a corner, and, whet the Su:i Francisco boy swung feebly, Corbett swung two lightning lefts and Hanlon went down. He took the count of eight, but strug gled to his feet, and again received terrific punishment. It was here Qraney wanted the fiifht stopped. The 16th round had lasted but a minute and 4 seconds when the referee stop ped the fight. ' Hanlon, when seen In his dressing room after the fight, was still In great distress, and refused to talk much. He did say, however, that Corbett can beat any of, them. CORBETT THE FAVORITE J K bell clanged summoning the princi pals to s action. ' Interest In the out come was Intense. Despite the fact that Hanlon, in his previous encoun ter with the champion, had somewhat the best of the bout, and the well known propensity of the local sport ing fraternity to allow sentiment to warp their Judgment In contests par ticipated in by local celebrities, Cor bett was pronounced the favorite' in the betting, opening up at odds of 10 to 8 a few days ago. The odds gradually shortened, owing to We weight of. the Corbett money, and when the lads entered the pavlllion were z to 1 wun tne uenver uva oh the long end. , At these figures many large wagers were made at the ring side, there seeming to be no lack of Hanlon money in sigh One of the reasons advanced for the unevenness of the- betting is the fact that most of the eastern turfmen and bookmak ers attending the local races5had pin ned their faith on the superiority of the champion and had backed their opinions freely. . '' Corbett and Hanlon met at Harry Corbett's, where the question of weight was' decided. The artjcles of agreement stipulated that they should weigh in at 129 pounds at 6 o'clock or forfeit $1000. Corbett was first to stej on the scales and Just tipped the beam at 129 pounds . Hanlon was evidently under these figures, as he falledo move the scales, About the ringside were many east ern men of national reputation. Jack Munro, who had met Champion Jeff rles at Butte,' was among those pies ent. A large delegation of Corbett men arrived from Denver to witness the contest. The party was headed by Otto Floto, the well-known sporting writer. - The first preliminary was between Jack Evans, of this city, and the vet eian Australian singer, "Australian Billy Murphy" This was Murphy's first appearance l.i the ring after an sence of several years. The men :it on for six rounds. The referee called it a draw. The second prelim inary, between Gearge Curran, of San Francisco, and Jack Ritchie, of New York, was won by the hitter In the second round, when Curran was so groggy the referee i stopped the fight to Weight of Money on Him Forced Odds to 2 to 1. San Francisco, Dec. 30. The Young Corbett-Hanlon contest for the world's featherweight championship at the Mechanics' Pavlllion proved to be one of the greatest drawing cards In the history of the fighting game In this city.
