SMITH’S UNLUCKY BLOW
;Bt Ex-eotrio Telegraph—Copyright] £TTnit*d Peebo Association.] (Received 1.35 p.m.) London, July 19.
Regarding the fourth round of the Smith-Carpentier fight, to-morrow’s Spirting Life explains that owing to Smith’s deafness it was previously arranged that Corri should indicate to either men down the progress of the count. In Corn’s opinion Smith could have risen at five, hut was awaiting the signal to rise at nine. Corri in the sixth round hesitated before disqualifying because he did not think the' foul MoW vicious or dangerous; but when he saw' Carpentier in apparent distress, he unhesitatingly disqualified. Even if Carpentier was bluffing, the decision was unassailable.
