soon Immediately after he entered bis dressIng -
Ing room by un Associated Press reporter.
When bo came in a dozen or moro mfeu
sprang forward to shako his band , but ha
pushed them back , Haying : "Don't got BO
excited. I know I won and 1 know you are
all glau of It , but don't try to olaw me to
death. Look ut mo , I um not excited , and
why should vou people bet Just got uway
from mo and lot mo gat n llttlo air. "
Ho then lay on his cot and was rubbed
down before beiug weighed. Ho tipped tbo
scale at Ibl pounds , vbowlug that he bad
only loit five pounds during tbo llicbt. In
answer to questions , Corbotl said : "I Knew
whai I could do. bid I not tell you coming
down on the train I would whip him with
case and to bet all you could raise on the re
sult ! I bad boon practicing for weeks to
guard against his pirtlcularstylo of lighting ,
and felt just us confident of winning as I did
that I was alive , "
BobFitzilmmous knocked at the door and
wanted to sco Corbett. "Don't lot him In,1. '
said the new champion , "I don't want to
BOO him. Mho big duffer would not como
near mo before tbo ilphrnnd I won't see blm

band over tbo top ot a door and called to
Corbott , but Jim told him to got down , that
bo would havu nothing' to do vvltb him.

The big Callfornlan said that ba did not
fool the least bit tlrod und that ho had
worked ton times harder than that every
d y ha trained for t be light. "I am nullified
that I ooula bavo whipped blm very much
sooucr had I mixed and ono Into hard Infighting -

kept at mo to bo a lutlo cautious , that I waa

W .V
that I bad bolter fight n llttlo shy of bis

When Mlko Donovan entered tha room
Corbott sprang to his feet nnd shook hands
wHh him very cordially. "Well , Mike , vro
got on too nt last. Mlko. my boy , every
word you said about Sullivan was rlcht.
Ho fought just ns you said ho would flcht ,
nnd I followed your advice nnd hare I mil

gratitude to vcu. "
Ills TnUnor Happy.
IJtllv Dclnncy , who really deserves great
credit for gcttlnc Corbott In bin present
magnificent condition , Is highly elated over
the victory. Ho said ho not only considered
Corbett tbo greatest fighter In the world ,
but that Corbott could take Peter Jackson
In the nnmo ring ho whipped Sullivan in and
could whip the colored man ns easy as ho
knocked out the big follow. "I'lils mnn , t
toll you , Is a wonder. Why , look nt him. Ho
has not got n scratch or oven n rod mark nf
any description on blm to show that bo had
been lighting , "
At this tlmo a messonccr entered the room
nnd Informed Corbott thnt his wife was on
the other end of the wlro and wanted to talk
to him.
"Oh , I can't go now , " said the stalwart
Jim. ' 'Just give her my love , nnd toll her I
am all right , feeling well , and not hurt a
bit. " ,
Turning to Mlko Donovan ho said ! "I
could go out and do u ton-mile run without
becoming the least wonry. This fight xvas
simply a walkover nnd the softest kind ot a
snap. The only thing I fool Is n llttlo sore
ness in my right hand from ' .ho last punch I
gave him. With that exception I would
never know thnt I had boon lighting. "
Word was received from Charlie Johnson ,

SAX Fit txcisco , Cal. , Sept. 7. Before fl
o'clock tonight newspaper extras wcro on
the street giving details of the great New
Orleans fight and announcing that James J.
Corbolt hud defeated John L. Sullivan and
been declared champion of the world. All
during the evening thousands of people had
crowded around the nowtpapor bulletin
boards and chcored wildly ns every bullotln
was posted , nnd wbcn the final bullotln was
received , a llttlo after 8:30 : , announcing that
Corbott was the victor , tbo wildest kinds of
scones occurred. The city has not witnessed
such enthusiasm for many a day.
Although there had boon general hopohoro
that Corbotl would win the great fight ,
there was no unusual amount of money bet
on him , as tllero was fear that bo bud undor-
tukon lee big a contract when bo tackled
Sullivan. Butting bora today was 10 to 3 la
favor of Sullivan , nnd quite n number of
small wagers were made , but no largo
amounts. The Olympic club , of which Uor-
boll was boxing instructor , backed Jim to a
roan nnd tonight the members are cel
ebrating the victorv. As the progress
of the fight showing Corbetl's line
fighting was rend from tbo bulletin boards ,
a grand rush was made to pool rooms
to hedge. Corbotl's brother , Henry , con
ducts the principal pool room hero and bis
place was blockaded by frantlo bettors
anxious to trot in al the last moment. Extra
editions of Ihe newspapers were nought oy
the thousands. The crowds in from of tbo
bulletin boards were so great that the street
car traffic from Market street was impeded.
Telegrams of congratulation poured in on
Corbett's lather who conducts a livery
stable on Hayes street. Corbott , sr. , of
course , was nroud of his sou , but was confi
dent that Jim would win. Ho is sorry that
Jim is a prlzo tlabter , but says that if the
boy insists on following that business ho
wants him to bo al ibo top.
Now VorkurH Astonished.
Nuw YOUK , Sept. 7. Too news that Cor
botl had defeated the creat and only Jobtf L.
and was iho now champion hoavywclsbt
pugilist of tbo world was received la this
city with something Ilka astonishment. -
Tbo Corbott men are In the minority and
their demeanor was in strungo contrast with
lhal of Ibo followers ot Iho Boston boy. Tbo
great majority could not botiovn that Sul
livan had nt lost mot with his match , and
bis friends lingered around tbo tickers and
bulletin boards hoping thai tburo had been a
mistake , but when it was definitely known
that Corbott was now thn champion enthu
siasm Unow.no bounds.
Chicago Stitlallod.
CHICAGO , III. , Sept. 7. The Interest shown
in tbo light bore was intense. The streets
in front of the bulletin boards wore practi
cally impassable for street cars and It was
with the Kfeatcst difficulty that pedes
trians could make their way through
tbo crowd. Much Chicago money was
on Corbott , and all ot It at good
odds and as the bulletins bognn to como
showing that Sullivan was getting the worst
of the fray the delight of the Corbett sym
pathizers knew no bounds. When the re
sult was. announced the crowds simply went
wild. Men rushed along the street yelling
"Corbett wins , " "Corbott wins , " nnd every
crowd yelled Itsolt boarso ever the advent of
a now champion. The excitement surpassed
thai shown al any ovenl since iho nalional
election.

Admirers of the lioaton Slupccr Can't Un.
deratniiit How It Occurred.
When the patrolmen rapped on the windows
dews of tbo various downtown sa
loons at midnight last night the
curtains dropped in front of tbo most
melancholy dead came sports that
Omaha baa seen for many a day. Tbo talent
wax not in last night and went broke on tbo
big man from Beantown with a unanimity
pathetic lo behold. They gathered In front
of the bur nnd. with bands thrusl deep into
tboir empty pockets , triad to explain .to ono
another bow it happened.
There was considerable bolting dona in the
various resorts last ovenlng in which the
bulllvun contingent carried a very big end.
Hotting slartcd at 2 to 1 in favor of the
Bostonlan , bui Corboll money was not forthcoming -
coming at that figure and iho odds wore in
creased to almost any limit. Bets of A to 1
to 5 to I were common and a number of luna
tics eave odds of 10 und Ifi to 1. Cornell's
victory In iho face of these odds was a body
blow that took tbo breath ns well as the
tlmoloons of thoonthuslasUoSulllvun crowd.
As the bulletins showed Corbotl to be showIng -
Ing up beyond all popular expectations the
faces of his backers began to lengthen , but
they put on a bold front and banked on tha
"terrible right" that was bound to find its
work before tha fight was over.
Tbo news that Sullivan waa knocked out
was received witb incredulous nstoulsbmont.
Bui as ihu report tvas authenticated aston
ishment wai succeeded by chagrin and In
fifteen minutes not a sport was to bo soon on
the streets except a few who had boon Incky
on ouch to take the short cud aud devoted
the remainder of the nicbt tolling their
friends how they knew It all the time.
Ono well known man about town who had
moro money tnan sense made nine bets on
Sullivan at odds ranging from 5 to 1 to 10 to
1 , and Is about { 5,000 loser for his temerity.
