May 19.-Joe Walcott , the colored boxer , who ha.s deserted the ranks of the lightweights to hecomn a. middle weight , knocked out Dick O'Hrlen In the fourteenth round of a light nt the Uroad- way Athletic club tonight , Waleott made a toravy concession of weight to the Lowlston man , yet ho won without Jiavlng to take moro than half a dozen punches in return i for the sroros ( lie. rained upon his man. Wal cott took the lead with thi sound of the KOIIR : ami save for a few seconds in 'the thfrtcentih was never headed. i HiTiuwid superiority In uvery respect and It was only O'Hrl-n's wonderful stamina , and capacity to tnko pun' ' nment that saved i him from an earlier defeat. Half a dozen i times during the light and before the linal round hu Heonu-d to bo going , but ev ry time his strength came back and the rents revived him. It wan a fierce fight from the start , yet It was .so uneven that It falK'd to mlr the crowd to a very high pitch of en thusiasm. Walcott Hhowed improved form at the increased weight , and was wonder fully clever. He frequently lashed his lft Into O'Hrlcn's ribs , raised It to the neck and then planted the. right on the other Hide of the head and got away without o return. His lift was wonderfully useful and whenever - over n blow sopmcd directive * ho was fill over his man with both hands. He. gavfr O'Hrlen no rest and after the slzcup It was only a question of time. Walcott was a favorlt ? In the betting at , odds of 2 and 214 to 1 , but there was not miii-h money wagered. The men flt their way through the llrst round Both ecmcd In excellent condition and O Drlen was probably nearer th ? weight than lie has been In any of Ills contests of late. The. whlt < - man found tie ! body onee with his left , but it was not a hard punch. The thirteenth was the only one that looked nt all O'Hrl-n's. Walcott opened with a series of Jabs , 'but toward the close O'Brien planted hlx right on tihe jaw iind his It ft on the. nose. Ho followed the colored man about the ring and had him bleeding nnd tired at tlfinish. . The end came In the fourteenth. Walrott rushed bis man and sent him down with a I hard right-hander on the Jaw. O'Hrlen took ' his time and was groggy when he ramo up. Wulcott was nt him at oneo and brat him down with right and left. Then out shot a rltflit hook and It was over.
