For the first tlms In hla pugilistic career Tom Sharkey went down to iloclslvc tlefcat tonight In the his toric Seaside- Athlotlc club ami big (lui ItuhllD, tho Ohio pugilist, was his con queror. It was a clean knockout after fifteen rounds of lighting that made a memorable ring battle. Save In tho matter of aggresHivonogg Ruhllif led from tho faco off In every feature of the fiamo and at all times had tho fight 'well In hand. Sharkoy did not give up h!n placo In tho lino of first class heavyweights without a desperate strugglo. No noldlcr ever gave moro des perate battle, no man sinking to uncon sciousness ever clung more determinedly to his vitality. I2ven at tho end, when blinded by the blows of his powerful opponent and dulted mentally by the battering of his foe, he clung Instinctively to tho massive frame of the man who was 1i!h master. Tbo de cisive battle and unexpected result were truly a surprise for the sporting public. No lino of form that could bo figured gavo tho Ohloan more than 1 to 1 chance. Sharkey had met and at least atood off all of the leading heavyweights In tho ring. Ho was known to bo a giant In strength, courageous to a point beyond discretion and aggrctnlvo. Iluhlln, on tho other hand, had never made a particularly good showing against any man of reputation and waa regarded ao a second-rater of a pronounced type. Hence there was apathy as to the light and while there was some spirited betting Huhlln never showed better than 10 to 7 and It was oven money that he would not last ten rounds. Tho management, In fact, decided to put tho general admission down to SI. Thoro wa a big crowd on hand, however, and It was treated to a. rattling good fight, with surprising rcsulte. Werf Olnil to Sep ShnrUcy. Sharkey was tho first man to come and It was 10:06 p. m. when ho appeared. The Im patient crowd gave him a fair volley of ap plause and was not especially enthusiastic whim Iluhlln camo In a mlnuto later. Huhlln showed to great advantago from tho spec tators' viewpoint when tho mon stood up to gether. Ho had height and weight and reach and looked big and muscular. His condi tion seemed perfect and hla work as tho battlo progressed showed that It was, Sharkey was not lacking In tho matter of condition, cither, nnd that cannot be urged In explanation or extenuation. At 10:15, when the men answering tho gong came to tho center, speculators wont through tho crowd offering 2 to l on hnarKey. At thoso figures thoro was a heavy play nnd tho talent did tho paying. As the men sparred to an opening It could be soon that Huhlln showed improved foot work and greater cleverness In avoiding itunlnhmcnt. Ability In that rospect, coupled with his natural advantages, gave him nunerlorlty which he never waived. He also showed flerco punishing power nnd It was only Sharkey's superb vitality that kept him from defeat earlier In the battle, no useu his right and left, with equal facility and mado them both count. He rather lacked In nciresslvencHS. and If ho had gone In could havo finished tho battlo much earlier than ho did. Ho nllowcd Sharkey to mako the paco Hnd nlthough ho met htm determinedly enough when ho camo In ho did not press all of his advantages. Ho used his reacn to ox cellcnt ndvantago and time and again Hteppod in after tho chunky Irishman had swung at him and mado his blow count. Sharkey, with that marvelous aggres siveness which has mado nnd marked his pugilistic career, made tho paco from the square-off until ho was helpless. Ho had met his master, however, and dofeat, al though slow, was inevitable. SluirUcj's Knot! llntheil tn Wood Bach round brought him closer to It, itiihlln kent-away from his wild swings and lesnoralo leads and kept hammering his left and right Into fnco and body. Ho hit tho Bailor's faco until It waa batlicil in blood and raarkod hlB chest and sides whoro ho planted his powerful punches. They clashed In desperato clinches and wcro lirnknn tlmo and again. Sharkey showtd an Inclination to rough It and wrestle In tho clinches and tha unsympathetic crow: hlsaod and hooted at him. Cries of "Foul mnc from tho crowd, but tho roferoa ro liiked to Interfere. Thn finish was dramatic. Sharkoy had struggled through tho fourteenth round with desperate effort and was but little re vived when ho camo up for tho fifteenth. Ho mado u wild try with bis left and when ho missed Huhlln caught him on the Jaw with his left. Iluhlln sprang In and beat tho Irishman down to the floor with a vol'y of punches. Tho reaoluto fighter struggled to his feat and when Huhlln camo in clutched him around tho waist. Huhlln hhnok him oft and dropped him again. A thousand men, frenzied In their oxcltcmcnt, surrounded tho ring and there was a din of hoarse yelln. Shnrkoy scrambled up again and then staggered against tho ropis. Hulil In seemed unablo to finish him, which would' havo been a charity. Sharkoy wnt donfor tho third time, but with dogged determination staggered to his feet. Ho was blnd and unsteady and a punch put him down. Tho roforce btopped In and ended tho contest. Sharkey was helpless. Billy Madden sprang Into the ring and kissed his protege and then aided In carry ing him from the ring. He was unmarkol, while Sharkey bore a score of bruises. It was exactly 10 o'clock when Sharkey entered tho ring, attended by Tom O'Hourke, Jack Sullivan. Jimmy Buckley and George Dixon. The sailor was clad as usual in green trunks with the American Hag as n sash. Huhlln entered a little Inter, with Hilly Madden, Kid McCoy, Charllo Goff and Jim Corbett as his seconds. The men tossed for choice of corners and Sharkoy won, Ink ing tho corner he occupied when ho met Jeffries. Hoth wore bandages and little tlmo was lost In putting on tho gloves. Hoth men looked to bo In excellent condl Ion, but when they shook hands In the center of tho ring Huhlln showed a remark able advantage In height over tho more rugged sailor.

BUFFET LIBRARY GARS . list Oioing Car Salm M BY CEORCE HORTON Author of "The Fair Urinaria," lite. The First Installment Will Appear in The Bee, Sunday, July 1. Illustrated from Photographs Taken hy .Mr. Morton, Ii. IIOKTOX lias taken for his I home the thrill, n" events in Crete leading to the Cretan rebellion, and eventually to the (ireco-rurkish war. The author has related the events thaj, followed the shooting of the British marines, and has portrayed with a graphic pen the terrible deeds of murder, rapine and arson car ried on by the IJushi Baouks in their desperate and liendish desire lo wipe owl. the Christians; how homes were entered and innocent, wwnfii and children ruth lessly slaughtered or made to witness the murder and desecration of those held dear, is told with a realism that compels the reader to say with (he author, "and this is The rnspeiikable Turk." Sv. Jlorlon's qualifications for writing this story are such that we can rely upon his statements of fact. He was fop six years United States consul at Athens and visited Canea the day following these massacres. Mr. Horton made a close study of tho language and conditions, habits and customs of the Greeks, and his work shows that lie knows his ground thoroughly.
