WRESTLING.
BOUTS AT AUCKLAND. AUCKLAND, January 14. Two professional wrestling contests drew a very large house at the Town Hall to-night. John Kilonis (Greece) defeated Sunni (New Zealand champion) by falls in the third and sixth rounds. The winner again was very unpopular with the crowd, and was hooted at frequent intervals. There was a difference of nearly two stone in the weights. In a three-round bout between Pat McCarthy (Canada) and Jim Heslin ; (the Australian heavyweight), the referee awarded a draw.
