Tommy Corcoran of Ravanrtah put Tan
Williams of Australia out In the sixth
round at the Theater last night The
Savannah boy swung left au l right to the
Jaw after a minute and a half of lighting
in the sixth, and there was no steam left
in the Australian lc tr.rd to get up.
lut **Bhorty' Jenkins, the referee, stood
ov* r him counting the *• ond*. and It was

that William* could rise
Force ran probably pulled down between

?‘<.tvannah lovers of the game* recall with
such choke expressions of disgust In

but the Pearce throw-down was too fresh
in the mind* of iho*e who might have
>• en willing to pul up •• bit of the* green
had there been no recent funny business
In th game.
Ihxh WlllUm* and Corcoran were -hecr
ed ms they entered the ring, but the lat
ter got mo*t of th- hands and continued
to do so throughout the fight H was
clear that the* crowd wo* with the Sa
vannah boy. They wanted to sec him win.
and this was apparent again when the
formal introduction* were made.
Jenkins c alled the men to the middle of
the twenty-foot ring and gave them their
• n*trueilons They were to fight with one
arm free The* method of the breakaway
und In-fighting that was to be followed
was mad** perfectly clear, and the men re
turned to their corner* and waited for the
gong.
The confident For reran had his usual
look about him as the gong sounded and
the two men advanced to the center of
the ring That s a part of the Savannah
boy’s game, and It may be that he uses
it to some effect. That amlle. sometime
rendered rather ghaMlv by stiff, disfigur
ing punches he has stopped by his face,
must grow very we*rlome and Irksome
to the man that Corcoisn gets going
Williams also looked fit and strong.
There wa* a hade of about three pound*
in Foreoran’s favor, they both weighing
In during the day t about U.%. Kut It
looked al'out what the sports' lilt * lot
ting had made It. an even thing.
Hut the first round showed the wise
ones that it wasn't so even. Forcoran
found Williams for .-ome hraln-Joltlng
punches In the first, hut he got good one*
In return, the Australian looking for the
bodv about as often as the head. They
were fighting hard, and it was pretty
c le ar that there would be something doing
for a knock-out before long. There wasn't
and a land-off-and-spar business about it.
It was tight,fight, fight, and the pair were
game
In the second round Williams went
clown but he was up again almost In
stantly. Two or three times the specta
tors thought Corcoran had the Australian
going In this round, for William* would
get on a groggy look lor s moment, hut
It would iass off about as quickly as
Forcoran's hi w* brought It Everybody
noted fhc way Williams had of recovering
himself in a Jiffy, having his guard up
and keeping F rcoran off when the latter
would have hern rushing in to finish It.
The third round was much like the first
two. There was hard righting, both men
forcing It alternately Williams gave
ground frequently though, getting in
footwork Foreoran. on the other hand,
didn't seem to know what it meant to
run He was rignt there tj meet everv
ru-h William* male. The round was
Forcoran’s, a* had been the first two
In the fourth and the* fifth, particularly
the hitetr, the Australian took a bracer.
He was fighting Mrongly in the fifth, and
heads got to shaking at the close of the
round, and they sold then it was either
man's tight. Both were tired, that was
chair, or Foreoran could have followed up
two or three that he landed with some ef
fect The Bavannah boy, though clearly
having the betetr of It to that point, had
marks of battle on him. a tine black eye
end a cut lip showing that Williams had
lo tided
The spurt William* made in the fifth
didn't hold good In the sixth. For<oran
connected pretty much whenever he want
ed to. and William* began to look like a
man who was not long for the ring Half
the round was over when Foreoran swung
Ills left. I ending on the point of the Aus
tralian's JaW, and crossed with Ills right,
catching his opponent on the other side
of the Jaw and sending him to the floor.
Williams looked like* he* wanted to get up.
but there wasn't enough starch left. He
couldn’t stand up. Hr squirmed about on
the floor, but ten second were not enough
for him to recover. Three or four more,
had he been allowed them, would have
seen him on his feet again.
As Williams was counted out. Foroo
ran's seconds made a rush for the victor,
had him on their shoulders and carried
him from the ring to the dressing room,
where la* wa* rubbed down, at th* sam*
lime receiving a number of visitors and
congratulations. Williams was himself
again In . !• w second* and was cared for
by hi* friends. The audience crowded
out of the Theater, talking the fight over
and agreeing thet ft was worth the ad*
mission price.
Foreoran wa talking a boo I another fight

The notice m yesterday's Morning
New# of an Intention to Introduce at the
n*xt stavion of the Legislature a bill to
authorise the Mayor and Aldermen to ac
quire land* in Ftiatham county outside*
the city for various public use#, attracted
some attention, being the firet notice of a
local act to la* Introduced at the next see
on of the legislature.
City Attorney Ad ims confessed to be
ing the author of the notice and stated
trial It was Inserted by request of Mayor
Mvers. ‘ The proposed bIN has not leen
I drawn yet,” raid Mr. Adams. "This will
1 l> • done upon the return of Mayor Myera
to the c.ty and will be sui>mltted to Coun
cil for approval and discussion "
Mr Adams said that the qucMlon of the
city’s right to acquire outside property
for city purposes has confronted Council
.H* veral times of it<* He had been re
quested to look into the matter and hod
found that there Is nothing ;n the city’s
charter or the* >ul* qu<nt acts of the
Legislature re ferr.ng to the corporation
which confers the right to acquire outside
property for public uses. A prominent
legal authority hid held, however, that
municipal corporations can exercise this
right though not directly conferred. Mr
A lams see rdlngly advised *ome of th*
member* of Council, when the question
of the purchase of a cemetery tract was
recently under consid ration, that Coun
cil had the tight to exercise its authority
to make* such a purchase, but stating
at the same* tlm* 1 that there was room
for grave doubt on th*- subject.
"The pe*t house property, which la out
side- tile city limits." Mr. Adams Mated,
"was acquired by special act of the Leg
islature Springfield plantation, on the
ontrary, wa - bought outright by the city,
without any special authority on the* sub
ject for the* purchase, and a |or#lon of it
was afterwards set aside as Laurel Grove
Cemetery, which wua not then within the
• ity limits.**
The muter Is on** of considerable Inter -
j cat in view of the fuel that it has been
urged thnt It would be wisdom on the part
eif the city to proceed to acquire streets
'hrough lands out.-ide of the city limits,
but which will probably become part of
! ih** city In the- near future, where this an
I be done at ;i reasonable cost, and thus
I save ih* cosily and unsatisfactory experl
; n*e which wa* met with in opening up
the streets of the present Bouthside. The*
following state m* nt of the intent and
purport of the bill by Mr. Adams set*
forth the matter clearly
"The notice has been Inserted hv the
Flty Attornev at the r quest of the Mayor.
wh> will submt' the matter to Council
and will have th*- hill presented to the
Legislature on the 1 n* indicated by the
title In the event Council approves such a
measure Publication Is now made onlv
to give the thirty days’ notice as required
by law and secure an early Inf reduction
of the hill in the event Council thinks well
o' It Vnder the charter as It now stand*
there Is ample room for serious question
as to whether the city can acquire for
any purpose, no m.ittfr how important
and desirable, land outside of the corpor
ate limits. Rome months ago a proposi
tion was made by a land company to
g.vi* s'reets ihtoagh a large body of
•and Just south of the city, provided
Foundl would agree to do certain grading
fid the right of the city to acquire land
for this purpos* was then questioned In
the caijcu*. To avoid questions of this
kind the idea is to let tue city have the
power to acquire lands In the < oooty. out
side t.f the city, for any public munici
pal use This power to be exerc* *d or
r.ot in any particular instance, as In the
Judgment of Foundl may seem proper,
after u thorough Investigation and full
notice to the public. Th* Idea of th
Mayor l* to 4ave the b|:l which may be
pi *pa i cel m pursuanc e of the published
title to provide for full notice of any
proposed purchase and a careful and de
liberate consideration o # any ordinance
sanctioning the purchase before Its |wis
sage."
