It was'argned that Fkzsiiunions well- known knowledge of the game and his capability of hard hitting would not be able to counterbalance the youtli ami strength, as well as the recently ac quitHHt tactics of the Ohio man. To night, however, all .this has been changxL Fitzsimmons dkl the trick cleanly nd cleverly. It was a fierce and blomly battle while It lasted, and at times it looked as Ff ltuhlin would get thej better of the older man, but Filzsiintnons, at the proper time, cut roos with Ids fearful Iksly blows which finally snuffed out the Ohio box er's lishti The bet ting all along had favored FitzsLnuuous. many wagers at the rate of 100 to JS( on "Iinky Itob" b:ing made.

This state of affairs did not last loufr. however, and by the time the men had put up. their hands for the ojiening round, they were equal favor ites at even money. Fitzsimmons liiuiself com-eded alsmt thirty-tAvo pounds to Huhlin. and this in itself was a serious handicap. Hut as tlie result showed, Fitzsimmons was euual to the task he Jiad set liiuiself against, and won out with that terrible solar plexus blow." which, whenever it Isn1ed. shook 1uh from head to foot. From the word "go" the men started lt witb hurricane-like force. Both were wild at. "times, but Fitzsimmons was always the quickest to steady him self. Ruhlin clinclitHl a good deal and for three or four ronnds was the g grei?Kor Several blows staggered Fitz simmons. but none of them landed on the mark, as Fitzsimmons was too shifty. Just once Fitzsimmons touch ed the floor when le slipixrd down from a clinch at tm send of, a round. In the sixth round linhlin was slow sent stniight lefts Fitzsimmons jumped at his man. Fitzsrmmons got around ltuhlin, and while the latter sent straight lefts for Fitzsimmons' side-stepped safely and landed lefts and rights to the head and neck, and with the fearful left on tlie solar plexus Fitzsimmons sent ltuhlin in a heap to the floor. . This wis the Iieginning of the end that soon followed.
