HE IS CHAMPION NO LONGER Sullivan's Terrible Rislit Was Harmless Against OorboU's ' Clover Generalship. FIGHTERS WHO HAVE BEEN CHAMPIONS Bhort ( ilory of the Tltlo Tluit Inn Once Moro lluun I.o t anilVon tlior SiiortliiK Ninvn ui' tlio \Voclc. Never before has the sporting world wit nessed such a symposium of ppgllistio at tractions ns was offered at Now Orleans last week and it Is not probable that any of thono who saw Iho three uroat battles will ever see tbo like again. For six months past such an Interest has ueon exhibited In Iho event by the general public as was never known be fore , livery movement of the men who were to bo principals in tbo great combats was jealously watched and telegraphed all ever tlio world. The aspirants for championship honors fur a brlnf time occupied a moro pro- inlnaut position in the Interest of tbo public than tbo candidates for Ihe presidency of the nation. Around tbo ring at New Orleans crowded the representatives of every class of humanity congregated from every state aud territory of tliu union and even irom across thu sea. The event bus proved in ono respect - spoct ut least n burprlso to these who are reputed - putod authorities on such affair ) . It was the general opinion that Jitclc MoAulIffo would retain bis tltlo of champion light weight of tbo United Stales If ho was In condition , and champion ho is. No onn thought that iounc SUelly stood the allghost chanro of defeating Dixou und bo didn't. The best Judges and tbo most ox- purloncad sportlni ; men all over the world un i ted In the opinion that the great John L would whip Corbett us easily us bo hud da- I foutod other aspiring pugilists , but the talent was mistaken and paid dearly for tholr error It looks t > s though tbo defeat nf Sullivan marks a now urn In modern pugilism. For the past few years a change has been grad ually coming about In tbo tlstio art. 1'tio slugi'iug tactics of the past bavo been giv ing way to n moro modern , moro suloutillc and wilhal a superior , style of boxing. The power of moro slrongtn has boon diminished by the development of u uhyslcal science against which brute force was of no avail. Frank Slavin's strength and hitting powers which has made him a conqueror against Imlllur Indies proved a fulluro against Iho clean solonco and gencrulshtp of Puior Jack- eon. Ted Pritchurd who had knocked out u numborot heavyweights who had llillo lo Uojiend on but their stiongtb was nn easy victim to the superior sulll of Jim Hull. Sullivan alonu njimilnoa It his terrllla Btrt'iiu'th. But n w ho too htissuucuuiood to u man who Is ropresontailvo of iho nemo of physical irniuini ; and puuilUtlo Hcionc-3. Against Corbott's llgbtninullko movements Una torrlllo right was hurmlusi as uoblld'n plaything and nfler Hiicli a pummullng as Sullivan never received before ho went down und out ooforo u succession of blows Uollv- orod with loss force perhaps but with n iclonlllla accuracy ilmt rendered them douuly offoctlvo. It Is almost unnecessary to suv that as far as bolting "ion wuro concerned Sullivan was tbo favorite at odds of about U to 1 , thouu'h these who looked purely at form failed to ice uhy tbo blir man should bo selected as un Infulliblo winner. It Is true that Sullivan bad u wonderful locord for knocking out inoii all over tuo country , bul it was argued that very few of tlinso men bud bom men of ny account. This was undoubtedly true to itoiuo extent.but the fait romalnod that ho had buaton Kllruln when the Baltnuorean Iwasatbls best , and that after ouu of the uougustand buidcst fights on record. It was ouliut Kllruhi was a wonderfully good man 'but day , but the chvumituncos uiucr which hey fought were all ngulnat the mun , They were ilKhilng In almost tnomcntury expcc * tutlon of arrest on a criminal charge , und it is now very well understood that each party fully expected that Iho other coutoia- plated foul play in which some of the desperate - porato men In the country were expected 10 take a prominent , purl. In nddllion toall - they fought for two hours In the broiling sun , whllo the mercury stood at 118 = I'ahr , , tbo creator part of the tlmo. Whllo thn battle was in progress strong men were fall ing down fainting with the intense heat. though thov had nothing to do except to sit still and watch the pugilists pulling forth tbo most violent exertions of which ihoy wore capable. Such an exhibition pt strenclb , pluck and endurance has rarely boon tvltncsscd by any men In any country. and when U is rbmomborod that at the end of the light Sullivan was an easy victor It Is not surprislns that Be should have boon regarded by these who saw him pass through the terrible ordeal as practically Invincible. Kllrain never ap peared to bo the same man afterwards , and has lost prestlgo and physical vigor. Sulli van , on iho other hand , hud never shown any symptoms of bis constitution having boon in any way Injured by that famous struggle , and it Is roaxonablo to assume that bo was in no way injured by It. Much stress was also laid on the reports of Sullivan's dissipation and irregular habits , but it was also romemoorod that whllo Just such reports had been widely circulated re garding Sullivan prior to bis light with KIN rain no man ever entered Iho ring in bolter condition than Sullivan did al Ulchburg. Il would bo tedious to enumerate the long list of "knockouts" accomplished by Sulli van. His technical record has boon pub lished again nnd ugain , nnd thoueh ho lost a very badly made match with Tug Wilson and broke his arm whllo boxing with Patsy Cardiff , he mot with no defeats , the nearest approach being hJ draw with Charley Mitchell in France. It may bo said , ihoroforo , that'whon Sulli van stepped into the ring Wednesday ni < ht , bo appeared bi'foro 8,009 speotulors a pugilist who , with a tremendously louc list of vic tories to his credit , had not suffered a slnglo clofenU His career had boon altogether unique , and pruollcally unparalleled in the history of thu prize ring. It was difficult for tbom who had witnessed bis triumphs lo rocou'nlzo for him even the possibility of defeat , And , on iho other hand , It was also easy to understand why Coroott's friends should bo full of confidence. Like Sullivan , tbo young Californlun bad a brilliant record , unmarred - marred by u single defeat. His list of vic tories rrfis much shorter than Sullivan's , but bo was still young in Iho business , and the men whom he had met are all reckoned good ones. Ills balllo with Jackson , though a draw , had gene fur to trivo his frinnds confidence in him. Sullivan bad de feated Kllrain in 75 rounds ; Slavln had defeated Kilruiu In nluo rounds ; Jackson hud easily disposed of Slavln , and Corbott had made a draw with Jackson at the oid ol a very long light , the llrst few rounds of which had boon very hotly contested. By this test Corbott looked to bo a bolter man than Sullivan , and to emphasize this line of argument it was pointed out that Corbott had not many months after the Klchburg battle virtually disposed of Kllruln ooforotho .Southern Athletic club in Now Orleans in six rounds. Again , It was urged bv the friends of Cor- buit that ho had never indulged in ox cesses of any kind that were at all calculated to Im pair his physical vigor. He was also much younger thuu Sullivan and iho surgeon who baa m emu re il him bad pronounced him a blggor man than his burly unlagnnlsi. Tiioro were also many who backed Corbott for this fight who hud \\on thousands of dollars lars on Sullivan in bis former battles , but who b&lleved that a prize lighter who bad not taken iho uest care of himself must begin to co down hill before reaching Sullivan' * aeo. They thougt.1 ho huJ made u mistake of stav ing too long ia Ibo ring ai so many before him hud done and thai bis Wellington und \Vuturloo wore to rome In the young Califor nia giant and the eroat arena of the Olympic ' club. Thu Krniiul Cluli .

Tnat Sullivan would win was a foregone conclusion in the minds of a multitude of enthusiastic admirers of the great Bostonian and tholr depleted purses now testify to the loyalty ot their adhcronco to tholr champion. While the odds were generally quoted at ! ) to 1 and 5 to 2 there were hundreds who cave any odds that were demanded so long us Ihoy ware iiblo to place a bot. They regarded a oat on Sullivan a < > picking so much money up in the street and were not particular now muuh they risked in Iho effort to obiulu it. Bets of 5 lo 10 to 1 were not uncommon and the night of the llcbt ono overconfident admirer of tbo former champion boU)7 tel In a local poolroom on Sullivan. Such hols as these are simple Idiocy , no matter bow sure a winning may seem to lie. There is no such n thing as a "dead sure thing" In a prUo light us a good many men have found out to tholr cost. No man Is so big and strong and clover that ho does not stand a chunco to bo whipped , although bo may have ovorv cuunco In tlio world to win , Thu mou who were foolish enough to bet 10 to 1 on Sullivan only re ceived exactly what their lunacy deserved.

Cushman apparently wab trying to please everybody , and as the old saying goes , 'Ho pleased nobody. ' The 4UO became greatly worked up over some of Cusbmaa's decisions and made lifo miserable for that gentleman.

A small boy away up In Iho corner of the grand stand notitlod Cushman that ho was 'boluinc the book up- sldo down.
