THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH, TUESDAY, APRIL 17, 18Ɛ8.
whether it was sheer stupidity or perversion of pluck that induced the bright-eyed English, boy to do battle with the pugiliste man of the century, and Sullivan has lost his last-battle-end will probably never wear a white plaster around his waist again. The American champion is now out of the question, and everybody is making mental conjectures as to the extent of limitation of the new champion's powers.
From the very first glow everybody interested in Sullivan felt that something was wrong, how wrong, no one for a moment suspected, John has too much heart. He whispered after the fifth round that he was so much pleased with Mitchell's pluck in showing fight after all the delays that he would fool with him for a round or two. This happy ignorance of the true state of things only lasted till the tenth round. Then the truth of the situation dawned upon even those of the. Boston bay's friends most blind. To their credit, be it said, they never dreamed of hedging, but the truth was too good even for the Mitchell men to believe, oni in a wild, hilarious manner they could only screw up courage to back the young one to take punish ment for twenty rounds.
Right-hander after right-hander was delivered. by the big fellow, but Mitchell was not to be put to sleep. He fought skillfully and with cusning, going to grass whenever the slightest push from the champion would justify, and after a rest returning to his old game with a cheerful smile. In the twelfth round cold sleet began to fall and this fought for Mitchell even better than his clever hands. The champion's right arm began to puff up and his left did little execution. Sullivan seemed to have a presentiment of what was coming. His face, though little damaged, grew haggard and his eyes bloodshot, Mitchell was the palpable cause of Sullivan's provocation on account of the way his blows were received. The wonderful pink hue for which Sullivan's skin had always been remarkable, disappeared and became livid and ashen. It seemed almost as if his hair grew jo per cunt, grayer between the twentieth and thirtieth rounds, but, though shivering in the terrible cold, with his muscular power leaving him every minute, one quality of the Yankee suffered no diminution, that was pluck and stubbpraess. The lule was going against him, but he was evidently determined to never throw up the
e sponge, ta die in his tracks rather than yield to the young slogger of whose power he, like so many others, had such a poor opinion bitherto.

A capital sing was pitched on the well-rolled clay. The journey from Amiens to Creil was commenced at 6 o'clock and the party arrived. there at 8 o'clock. Mitchell appeared cheerful, but Sullivan looked serious and determined. There was some trouble in getting carriages at Creil, and several spectators had to walk to the hattle-ground, arriving there at 1 o'clock. The principals drove, ready to fight, all in one party. MacDonald and Jack Ashton seconded Sullivan and Jaldock, and Kilrain seconded Mitchell. Mr. Angle of the London Stock Exchange waS Teferee. Jack Bennett umpired for Sullivan and Charley Rowell acted in a like capacity for Mitchell,
At 12.50 o'clock. Sullivan threw his hat into the ring, where it was speedily joined by Mit- chell's head-covering. Both men wore warm woollen drawers-Mitchell also wore a large fighting plaster of the old style, but. Sullivan declined to put one on. Sullivan sported orna- mented green socks.
At 12.50 o'clock precisely, the principals and seconds shenk hands in the orthodox, old-lime fashion, and the fight began. Sullivan looked as though he would have been better for a stone off in weight, and Mitchell was not drawn any too fine.
Round Sullivan stood over Mitchell. He lonked too big for him and very spiteful. Mitchell was indulging in a laugh over the fact that he had won the loss for corner and put Sullivan face to the wind and sun. Three to one on Sullivan was offered at the start. After a half minute's sparring Sullivan led off, when Mitchell dodged, got in his right on his opponent's Mitchell tried to chin and then ducked. draw out his man with his left, and the artful Sullivan got home with his left on the check, and his right on the top of the head. Mitchell gat lame, with his right ou Sullivan's belly, Sullivan now several times in beautiful manner stopped Mitchell's left, which was still aiming for its belty. Finally Sullivan cornered Mitchell, who dropped to avoid punishment,
Round 2-Mitchell commenced operations by hinting viciously at Sullivan's eye. He hit the spot and Sullivan did not, but landed on the check with his left. Mitchell staggered from the counter, but tried his left again, this time with more success. They then clased, but broke away again almost immediately, Sullivan now rushed and hit Mitchell on the head with his right and gained the first knockdown.:

Rounds 29 to 39-During these rounds Mitchell gained some advantage. Both men fought very fairly, although once Mitchell twisted Sullivan on the rope and sought to cross-buttock him. Neither would wrestle to the end of the rounds.
The thirty-ninth round was exceptionally tedious, and the utmost fairness was shown by both men, and it was at times most amusing to see them close, and then by consent separate in the most polite manner, Mitchell playfully tapping: Sullivan.

The fighting was superlatively fair throughout. Some ardent Sullivan people claimed, several times that Mitchell went to grass without being touched, but their claims were overruled, and more severely by the champion than by the referee. Owing to the heavy colition of the ground, the fighters seemed by mutual agreement not to try to fall, and when after a rally, they closed, they separated. When, at the close of the thirty-second round, the rain ceased to fall, the faces of Ashton, Barnett and Phillips bright ened. They thought that the tide of the champion's fortune would surely turn. It had again, but all to no purpose.

(FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT}'
31 March, 1888. The affairs at Chi-nan-fu are in prospects. The head of the gentry has bad a long interview with the Governor, and the rumour, largely prevalent, is to the effect that the gentry and the officials are going to offer as an exchange an open piece of land. To do this much, time must be-given, or the gentry will have no face Several weeks since bemiddle-man was released from prison, and so at last a part of the request of the missionaries and the American, Minister has been granted. There is, however, now and roughs. One day one of the American, and two of the English missionaries, on passing through the suburb near to the disputed property, were followed by a hooting mob, and the cry was, "We have thrashed one devil, and nothing has come of it; now let us kill the others. For fear of future danger to life and property, the matter was referred to the American Minister, and he in turn referred to the Taung-li Yamen the matter of threatened danger. The Yamen nt once issued orders to the Governor to instruct the local officials to suppress all disturbance, I hope that this may prevent further trouble, till the present case is in some way satisfactorily managed.
As an incident, Illustrating the intense fear of some and opposition of others, we mention how one of the English missionaries has been just about to rent, one after another 20, houses, when the respective landlords began to tremble, and so retire, saying, "When this other case is setiled, then I will rent to you. This certainly shows the power of intimidation in China. Several months ago, when one the officials remarked that they could not force the people to sell properly to foreigners, a missionary replied that this was certainly a correct principle, and so likewise no one should force others not to sell to foreigners, or more properly to the church. All that is desired is freedom of action according to the law, and not according to the fancy of a few.
One of the missionaries of the English Baptist Mission, the Rev. Timothy Richard, has been on a visit to his old home at Ch'ing-chow.fo. Then all the members of that Mission in Shan. held a conference in Chi-pan-fu. After much deliberation it was unanimously agreed to form plans for greater work, ist, by starting educational work for the upper clasico, newspaper and other efforts in the capital, the Rev. T. Richard to be aided by two younger brethren and and, by opening a new station half way between Ch'ing chow-fu and Chi-nan-fu at the city of Chow-ping, the station to be manned by four familles, We await to see whether any more property difficulties will arise. No doubt, as this Mission adopts the principle of conciliation, and prefers therefore to rent rather than
purchase, much needless friction will thereby be
avoided. In keeping the public so fully informed of the doings in the Interior of Shantung, we warn all from imagining that other provinces have no similar facts to narrate, The publishing of facts hastens on in reaching safe conclusions, not only as to international relations, but the wisest ways todeal with these Oriental people with profit and not with detriment.-N. C. Daily News.
All the while the Americans were backing up their man with money and giving odds to cheer: the old champion. MacDonald kept shouting: Now, John, my darlint, just one more and we have finished him," in a hysterical manner, which would have been humorous if it were not so sad. The long, weary tramp, tramp, of the thirty-sixth, thirty-seventh and thirty-eighth rounds, with the weakeness of both parties becoming more apparent, terminated, with Sullivan's discomfiture and a drawn battle in the thirty-ninth round. In no sense a Waterloo, the battle was certainly what Gettysburg was to Lee's army, a repulse which broke the backbone of When the battle was over the resistance. Americans awoke from n'stupor, rubbed their eyes and could not believe it was true. Philips ran at Blakelock with a bottle with the evident intention of breaking the latter's head for having advanced the draw proposition. But Philips, fortunately, came to his senses before any damage was done. Faithful Sam Blakelock crept into a corner of a barn and cried like a baby, while poor Sullivan sat mute, speechless and sad, in a corner.
best thing that could have been determined on. Humanitarian views apart, the draw was the
Two hours more of fighting would not have brought the affair any closer to a more decided result. Both men being beaten a draw was the logical conclusion, Mitchell's blows were quick, but puny as a baby's, while Sullivan stalked around, a mere shadow of what he was, like Banque's ghost. The secret is now in every one's mouth that Sullivan's fighting days are finished. Something gave way during the fight, no one knows what, and the champlop of yester day is the ex-champion of today. A number of hard fights had told their tale and the champlon in a moment lost his sway and saw the slogging supremacy slip from his grasp for ever...
Sporting man are strangely superstitious. The strange story which follows is considerably discussed. On the way to the battle-ground Sullivan and the men with him met n funeral procession with a bearse drawn by friends of the deceased as is usual" There were three priests in front with flickering tapers, and chanting a "Mistiere.”. One of the party who spoke French asked who that was that had turned up his toes so lately, and the answer came : "He was the most celebrated man at savotte of the province, He had won twenty contests and had never been beaten."

Round 3-Michell led off with his left, and after a few exchanges they closed, Mitchell putting in a few half-arm blows. By matual consent they, separated, both laughing. The ground being chaycy somewhat hampered the movements of the men. When. they resumed sparring Mitchell got in a blow with his left and they closed, Sullivan getting the best of the Mitchell not to run around the ring, then Mitchell's temple, knocking him down.
Kound 4-Mitchell came up with a lump on He led with his left on his left temple. the belly. The men then spared for some time. Mitchell frequently led low and was well stopped. Sullivan tried his right and rushed in. They clinched, but mutually drew away without wrestling. Sullivan looked able to do what he liked while holding. Mitchell. The latter got bome twice on the chest. Sullivan, after waiting a while, rushed in again, but Mitchell cleverly, slipped away from him. The round ended with Sullivan's left eye in sending bitchell dawis, fast rally, the blow
Round Both responded sharply to the call of time. Sullivan directly forced the fighting and there was a fast rally in the middle of the ring. Mitchell clinched and then separated. After a short round Mitchell went down from a right hand blow
When two hours and a half had elapsed, in thirty-seven rounds, a reference to Smiths, gri Kilenin caused titlering, but John, looking serious, would not reply. The ground was now in a terrible state. Mitchell was frequently down on his hands and knees, but got up quickly, antl now seemed fresher and more confident than ever. There was, however, always a dangerous Charley being more inclined to plant one until
was always on the alert and managed to get away. There was no use in John's racing after him; he was too agile. Frequently Mitchell, for a change, would take a walk around the ring, Sullivan standing still. Some four times they mutually retired to their corners to set the clay off their shoes and refresh themselves. Then one would challenge the other. Mitchell seemed a little hurt in the first half and in the latter showed great generalship and scored best, but he appeared to be afraid of Sullivan's right,
A draw was suggested, but was declined, and
between 4 and 5 o'clock all got inpatient as the
finish seemed at least two hours off. Mitchell at last said: Well, let us shake bands or fight on, as John likes.
Hereupon Baldock, who had been very trouble. some, rushed in and joined their hands. Sullivan was nothing loth, as both were tired greatly.. When the fight was over all present crowded Round 6-Sullivan had been leading thus far, around the principals, desirous of shaking their bat Mitchell opened this round with three left-hands.

received the most damage. Sullivan and Kilenin shook hands after the light.
Round 7-Mitchell led with his left at the belly. In a rally that ensued Sullivan fell with Mitchell on top. Sullivan afer all the rounds walked to his corner, but Mitchell was generally carried."
Round 8-First blood was allowed for Mitchell, Mitchell got home several times on the belly and avoided Sullivan's terrible right. After some heavy exchanges Mitchell landed a hot one on Sullivan's right eye and got down to avoid a
return.'
Round 9-Sullivan got home with his right on Mitchell's neck. After a rally, Mitchell's left met Sullivan's mouth and then got home again on the car. Sullivan landed twice with his left on the car and temple, and Mitchell went down from a right-handed blow on the arm.
Mitchell has now shown himself to be the
most clever fighter as well as boxer. Excessive quietness prevalled at the.ring-side, and there was the utmost good order, and, generally speaking, good humor all around. This was undoubtedly a model mill in various ways. The first half of the fight was goods in the second half the bitting was fierce, but the waits were absurdly long. This, however, suited Mitchell. The rain rendered the battle-ground a mere marsh, and this did not suit Sullivan.
Sullivan's reputation as a terror, is regarded. by the sporting men bere as completely exploded, as Mitchell took a lot of punishment early in the fight.
Round 10-This was another smart round. Mitchell showed a lump on the left temple, while Sullivan's right eye was in bad shape. Sullivan CHINA COAast meteorologiCAL opened the round with a vicious rush at Mitchell, who got down.
Round 11-Mitchell got home twice with his left on the body. He was worked to his corner and got down to avoid punishment. The ground' was slippery.
Round 12-Both appeared fresh, Sullivan again opened with a vicious rush, and Mitchell fell without a blow. Foul was claimed, but it was not allowed. Sullivan was savage and made repeated efforts to corner Michell, but Mitchell slipped him and finally went down to avoid punishment.

Judging, not from the detailed account but from the result, it is perfectly clear to any person acquainted with the manly art that the big Boston hally was out-mancraveed and out-fought after the first few rounds, and that it was only his tremendous advantage in beight and weight and probably a disinclination on Mitchell's part to run the disk of losing the fight by a chance blow, which prevented Sullivan from being completely knocked

The arrange ments made last night for the fight were chaotic. Mitchell's agent,ho was sent over ten days before to secure ground, was obliged to confess he had failed to procure a suitable spot, where upon a wrangle entued and the Sullivan párty, rightly or wrongly charged Mitchell with trying: to wriggle out of the fight.
