Favorite Knockout Blow The Con.
test Toole Place on the Mexican
Side, Near Langtry, Tex.
LAXUTltv, Tox., Feb. 22. Peter Mnhei
n-as knocked out by Hob Fitzslmmons
yesterday In tlio first round aftor ono min
ute and thlrty-llvo Bccouds of actual fight
ing. Fitzslmmons played the samo old
gnmc ho has so often playod beforo, lead-
nig on his opponent until ho hnd him
whoro hq wmited him, and thon landed a
lightning right hand swing on tho Jaw nnd
it was over. It was tho identical blow that
knocked out Jim Hull lu Now Orloans.
Far tho first part of tho round Mnher
had tho better of it. Ho led often, and
forced tho fighting. In his cagcrncBS to
get at Fitzsimmous ho committed a palpa
ble foul during a clinch, and was warned
by Referee Silor that its repetition would
cost him tho fight Malier fought well,
but ho wus no match for his red beaded
opponent, who proved himself one of the
craftiest men" that over stepped into tho
ring. uzslminona Is now, by uorbott's
action in presenting tho championship to
Maher, tlio champion of the world, and
after tho light was over he declared through
Julian his willingness todefend the cham
pionship against any and all coiners.
The train arrived here at about 3:U0,
central time, and over a rocky road wind
ing about the precipitous cliffs along tho
Rio Grando the crowd wended its wnyto
the sandy bench of tlio river. Korty-two
Mexicans had carried the ring material
down tot the river' bank Thursday night, '
after working hard all day upon a road-i
way down from the bluff. A narrow
wooden foot bridgo had been put up
across the swiftly flowing stream. Tho
crow stumbled over the stony path and
waded ankle deep in tho' sand, guided by
little Jimmy White, a boy who came from'
Toronto to boat tho tight.
The battle ground was a sandy flat, upon
a big bend In tho Rio Grando river, on the
Moxican side. It Was just two miles from
the village of Langtry. In the center of a
canvas wall about 200 feet In diameter tho
ring wan pitched. The board floor was
covered with canvas, over which rosin
was sprinkled. At one sido was tho frame
compartment for the taking by tho klucto
scopoof tho pictures of the light as it pro
ceeded. Ou the opposite side of tho ring
were two llttlo tents for tho principals.
Fitzsimmous was the first to leave the
train. There were following Martin Ju
lian, Jack Eyerhart, AVllllam McCoy nnd
Jack Stelzner, who wero in his corner.
Fltzslmraons took tho first tent when ho
entered the canvas enclosure. Mnhor took
the second. Maher arrived Hvo minutes
after Fitzslmmons. Ho was followed from
the train by a crowd, as well as his sec
onds, bearing his effects, Tho seconds
were Jim Hall, Buck Connelly, Poter
Lowrie, Jnok Qulnn and looter Hums,
Little tlmo was lost in gottlng ready.
Before he doffed his street carb Fitzslm
mons stonncd up and took n look at tho
ring.. Soon thereafter ho camo into tho
ring wrapped in n striped Datu robe, lie
was applauded by 300 voices vociferously.
Fitzslmmons sat down In the cornor near
est the steps leading to tho platform. A
man near him offered tlOO. on him. As
Maher climbed into tho ring near tho
corner he occupied a voice near by offered
100 to f"5 on Fltz. There were no takers.
George Slier climbed upon tho platform
almost at the sumo tlmo as Maher. With
Julian and Hall he examined the five
opneo gloves. The gloves were of differ
ent makes and different colors, Fitzslm
mons' being a light green and Maher's
dark brown.' A8 'ho seconds tied on tho
'gloyes Seller announced that besides the
official referee, Louis' Housoman, Bert
Sneed, of New Orloans, wpuld act for
Wlt-mlmmons and Parson Davles, of Chi
cago, would hold tho watch for Manor,

man would sounu a wmstio uvo secuuus
before call of time for the rounds as a slg
'nal to net ready.
At thlB juncture Julian asked Slier if
the' money was up In cash. Tom
O'Rourke handed up two cortiueu chocks,
saying: "Do you think I wpuld bring
110.000 In cash uown new junau in
sisted on the cash, but Itoferoo Slier reit
erated that tho checks wero certified nnd
therefore nil right. Then Fitzslmmons
won npnlauso by saying: "Uh, let It go,
AVo hnvo given In to overything, and will
give in to this,"
Tho roforeo called the mon to tho center
of the ring nnd said: "By tho articles of
agreement this is to bo a fair up nnd up
fight. Wlion thoro is a clinch and a call
for n breakaway each of you tako a step
back. I don't want to bo seizing you nnd
netting between you. If there' Is a knock
down the man must bo on his feet beforo
be can bo assailed. Be careful about fouls.
Get ready."
Fitzslmmons went to his corner and
doffed the bath robe. Julian and Kver.
hart removed Fitzslmmons' remaining
'raiment, and tho Australian stood forth
In short thigh trunks of dark blue, with
'a belt showing the American colors. He
had on mnoK nose, rouea uown upon the
top of hi ring shoes. When n similar of
fice had ' beuu performed for Midler ho
showed up in black trunks lalf way to the
knee?, with a green belt- Ill's hduo, and
tboes wero similar to- those of Fltzsiin,
motts. Tho Australian throughout tho
preliminaries bad -shown the utmost con
'fldence. Maher's Una seemod narched. and
'he moistened them, with his tongue nnd
took deep lnhalutions, as if his mouth and
throat were dry.
"Shake hands," Referee Slier sold. The
men advanced, Fitzslmmons with the air
of confidence still showing plainly, Mabcr
promptly and with mora of a familiar air
than bo had yet shown. They retired to
their corners, In an Instant tho whistle

Iiir the Theatre.
There has been some discussion over the I
chango of the place fur the athletic and j
fparring carnival to be given on Monday
night hy the National Social and Athletic
Club. The reason given for tho chango is
that when the club applied to tho manage
ment of Ferguson's theatre to rent tho place
the rental terms demanded were so exorbi
tant that the only altematlvo was to go- into
a suro loss, or rent another place, and Koh
bins' opera house was secured. It will lie
suitable for the occasion nnd everything is
being donO to make tho place comfortable
for the patrons.
Lvcrvtliinz points to excellent micc'cm of
