:TITE DAY OBSERVED BY ALL
Holiday-Seekers Thronged the Streets or Went to the Woods to Enjoy Ficnics. On All Sides Were Heard the Customary Popping of Crackers, and Throughout the City the Starry Fla? Was Displayed. In a Long Procession Were to Be Seen Many Attractive Industrial Features. Floats Gajly Decorated and Wagons Loaded with Goods Tastefully Arranged Show the Great and Varied Kesourws of the City. nOW THE PEOPLE OBSERVED IT. Everybody Was Out to Enjoy the Bright Day and the Iteat It Drought. It was a quiet Fourth, but one with a temperature as rare and cheering as one could expect in $10 ordinarily hot month of July. The sun was bright, but it had lost its intensity of heat for the time, and everything seemed to invite one out of doors. Aftpr thn Tirncpsairvn. thn crnwr1 thronirinir the down-town thoroughfares quickly dispersed, and for the remainder of the day the business part of the city was as undisturbed as upon a Sunday. Even upon Sunday the closing of places of business could . be no more complete than yesterday. There was a great demand upon livery stables for vehicles. The day was pleasant, and there was a desire for a view of green fields and country lanes. It , is altogether likely that no day in the city's history ever, knew! of . feo many small picnic parties; families ' going out for recreation. Many took ad- : vantage of the street-car lines and rode to v the suburbs, where they found shade and a place upon the grass toQpread the cloth for ' a cold collation taken from well-filled " b.iskt'tft. There was a trood nmonnt of na- . triolic bunting .iiying in all parts of the city, but no great eil'ort was made at decor- .: ation. In the residence portion of the city , the usual f ourth of July racket of snoot- . ing-cracKers took piace, buowiuk iuo muuu . boy to be preseut with a full stock of pa- " Itriotism ready to take the place of his sire . . in the Nation s need. After the sun went down, the explosions of gunpowder vere more frequent, and balls iof firo dropped from Koman candles describing graceful curves, "while rockets ploughed the upper air and expired in a Diaze 01 giory. event of the day, the industrial part of it . alone being nearly two and a quarter miles long., The start was from the corner of Washington and Mississippi" streets, and as it moved east along the broad asphaltmn pavement division after division fell in. and the procession continued to lengthen.

I now and then a little upon the right of way 01 inemarcuers. lnecoinmn turned north, leaving Washington street at New Jersey, 'and continuing on that street but one ysquare passed west onto Market street. The ( court-house square always a favorite point of observation had. thousands of onlook,!ers, the stone fence being thronged and every coign of vantage having from one to a dozen occupants. At the Circle the procession turned north on Meridian .street, t l. i; 1 1 -1 tl vwiiicu jwas iinMi wim popie, riiieuy women and children, and all radiant in , holiday attire. The most beautiful picture was at University Park, where a great throng had gathered in the shade to . get a good view of the passing show. At this point the marching men left the line, but the industrial part continued on . its way, turning east on rtorth to Delaware, Honth to New York, east to iKast, south to "Washington and thence west to Tennessee, where the column broke. The floats, cari t ? 1 .a . ? 1 ? xiages aim tuner venicies xnen rapiuiy disappeared from the street, each person hurrying to get home in order to celebrate thereafter the remainder of the day to his THE SDCSTRIAJL DIVISION. --' A City's Varied Resources Represented In a Long Line. The industrial parade was creditable, but not as large as it should have been. It did , pot represent more than 1 per cent, of the city's industries, but there weresever.il ' hundred wagons in line; and it required one "hour for tho column to pass a given point. JMany people were disappointed because A. AW . my comparatively iew 01 xiie manuiact- . nrers made displays, and there was al?o regret expressed that the wholesale trade was not represented by more of the large Meridian-street firms. Many of the floats in the procession were unique in cCnstruction, '.. presenting new and attractive features. This grand division was under the comjuandof Grand Marshal Albert Gall, who ft o Tk t Vki- li ch V11rh tvi n cr of iff AVm. Hertermann. K. H. Kees. John Leon nrd. Charles Schwartz, Valentine Born, W.

Knox, Edward Cooper, J. S. Hinton, Dr. P'lbert. ' The first subdivision, in charge of Marshal E. C. Atkins, was that of tho Board of Trade, which had in line a handsomely . , decorated float, on which were samples of . inll grain products of Indiana. Then came .'the saw displays made by E.C.Atkins .... A- Co., and the iron exhibit of Heth- . erington &, Berner. The former company ". . had a large float, on which was mounted a huge circular baw set in a finely-furnished , ;Jrarue. Hetherington V. Berner's display com prised two floats. On the first were Minnies of the companv's architectural work, and on tho second, "boilers and articles of sheet-iron. Then came the agricultural implements and carriage manufactory . displays nnder the direction of Marshal J. M. Bonnie. Both the industries made creditable showings. J. 31. Bonnie had several finely -decora ted carriages of his make in line. A. Helfrich had five buggies and carriages and one unique float on which were n nail uo.ren ougjries; ij. 11. hover's two floats followed, loaded with buggies f mm his carriage factory; Howard A. Johnson displayeiteeveral bugaciesand carriages, and the David Eoad Cart Company had on wagons many samples of what they have for sale. The econd division, with Albert Dillingham as marshal, was to have represented the lumber trade, marble-works, box manufactories and produce-dealers, but some of them were wanting. The only display of lumber was that of Dillingham V. Fowler, who had two floats, the first being loaded with lumber and building material of all - kinds, while the second had samples of frame work. The Indianapolis Excelsior Compnny had in line one float loaded with tamnles of the excelsior. The marble.works were not represented, nor were the box manufacturers. The remainder of the division was made up of wagons representing various vocations. The Clean Poultry Company made a creditable display; Daniel Stewart, the druggist, was represented by a nicelj constructed float, and the Indianapolis Coflin Company had a huge float loaded with enough cotlins to bury all the dead for a week in Indianapolis. The Indianapolis Art Stained-glass Company had a float carrying samples of their work, ami many retailers in several jincM of business were represented by decorated wagons. Ceorijo K. Scholield. tho a horse and mule-dealer, hail in line thirty horses. The third division, set apart for the wholesale merchants and other dealers, was also made up of wagons representing nearly all kinds of business. Those making displays were William Burford. printer aud lAtatiouer, M. O'Connor t Co., grocers; Conduitt & Sons, grocers; Moore fc Cough-
V m. Scott, W. 15. Ilolton, W. N. Harding, (Thomas Taggart. Win. Rich, Henry Ta Ibott. Christian Brink, Win. Staub, K. K. ' Stephens. Fred Barnard, Thomas Madden,
len, grocers; Charles Mayer, fancy goods; Murphy, Hibbeu &. Co., the Indianapolis Stove Company, Wm. H. Bennett it Sons, stoves, and Hildebrard fc Fngate, hardware. Each of the firms had in line a mammoth float, on which were piles bf goods, and some had additional wagons representing special features of trade. The sewing-machine companies made attractive displays, each one having from four to eight wagous rilled with machines. The fourth division was designed to repesent the cloihing-dealers. merchant tailors, gentlemen's furnishings, hats and caps, retail shoe trade and laundry trade. The mo3t notable displays were those of the AVhen and the Model Clothing Company. The former had in line a huge float, on which were piled samplcsof all the lines of goods sold by the linn. On the rear of the wagon was an enormonshat. tilled with boys' straw hats, and as the float moved ' through the streets a man threw them to a crowd of one hundred boys and men that followed the wagon. In this way several hundred hats were given away along the line of march. The Model's display was equally as unique. It had mounted on a heavy wagon a huge cage in which were a half dozen sheep. The float was labeled AU wool." The Original Eagle Clothing Company also had an .attractive wagon. The exclusive hat trade was represented by I. J. Kelleher and J. C, Dalton. The former was represented by three wagons, and the latter by one, and all were elaborately ornamented. The leading steam laundries were represented by several wagons, and the 6hoe trade by the Bnflalo Shoe Company, which had a float udou which was constructed a pyra
mid of JShoes. The ice-dealers were also ont with a number of wagons, but. did not fttfpmnt to make anv novil disnlavji. W. H. Messenger was marshal, of the fifth division, in which the furniture trade, the carpet-dealers, drv coods merchants, niano and musical-instrumcnt-dealers, and the lounge manufacturers were represented. Furniture displays were made by W. H. Messenger, Born fc Co., the Western Furniture Company, and John Clune. Each had in line floats attractive in character, and additional wagons containing samples of goods. The lounge manufacturers were represented bv Emerich. Paulina & Co.. who had two well-arranged wagons. Albert Oall represented the carpet and wall-paper trade with a float that attracted a great deal of attention. On it were goods of vari ous kinds, and besides it carried a band and an anvil chorus. The paper-hangers were also represented by several wagons. D. H. Baldwin fc Co. made a large display of pianos and musical instruments, to carry which required seven wagons. Kich & McVey also made a creditable showing of musical lnsimraenis. An interesting feature was the exhibit of the Indiana Society of rlonsts. Its mem bers were in carriages, and following them - .1 1 I . n a . was a nower caraon on wneeis. reaiea m "the garden, half hidden by palms and pot plants 01 all kinds were twelve little girls, each carry ing bouquets. Bertennann Bros., florists, had in line a special float that was covered with plants and flowers. It was very beautiful. Then carao the prod-uce-dealers, the retail grocers, retail butchers and others, all represented by gaily decked wagons. The brewers formed the sixth division, havingeighteen ortwenty wagons loaded with kegs and barrels 01 beer. The seventh division, which was to have been composed of builders' associations. did not materialize, and following the urewers were mo wuoiesaio commission merchants. Their display was composed. for the most part, of delivery wagous. with fewVcorations. J. L. Keach &, Co. broke the nlonotony of the scene bv exhibiting a load of watermelons, drawn by a span of mules, whose harness was ornamented with strings of green apples. The real estate and insurance agents were on hand in full force in their dog-carts and buckboards. distributing hand-bills, etc.. with great generosity. Appropriately near them was the Lincoln f ark displa', a single wagon. in which was seated a Scotch bag-pmer. The gas-titters, steam heaters and plumbrrs. coming nrxx, were out in iun lorce. Kiugnt it juisou naa seven wagons in line, whilo J. B. McEhvaine tfc Co. had nearly the same number. J. S. Farrel &- Co., steam heaters, had an imitation calliope mounted on wheels, from which more noise than music emanated. On anoincr noai 01 tne same nrra was a display of chandelier and gas-ware. Globes of all sizes and of various colored glass were swinging 11 om the ceiling of a model room. William Langsenkamp, colli 11 -dealer, had one of the neatest and most creditable dis plays m the line. Charles Gardner, tinner. presenren noais on wnicn were signs in Rpouting and tinware, while W. A. Tipton had men engaged in working at their trade. The Galvanized-iron Cornice Corapanv's ! 1 T aispiaj- was 01 zinc cornice and border work. August M. Kuhn was on hand with a dozen or more empty coal carts following, and as he passed throuch the doublo line of spectators on the streets he was saluted with inquiries as to what he represented the custom-house or the coai marKcr. v L. A. Catt. John H.Jones, E. M. VanPelt, "W. E. Wilson and Kouse Bros. Jt Co. con stituted the flour and feed displays. The latter firm, alone, had a unique representation in main wagon, mounted with harvested grain and cut bay. The last division was composed of but three wagons. The first was a moving express the second, an ice-wagon and the third a small cart, on which was a placard, reading "Bo Sure to Visit the Free Bath." THE MARCHING ORGANIZATIONS. A Parade In Which Thousands of Spectators Found Much to Praise. Dnringthe past twelve months, which takes one back to the time when the great hand-shaking delegations began to call on General Harrison, Indianapolis has become surfeited with street displays, with their blaro of trumpets, waving banners and inarching thousands. She no longer enteis into a demonstration exemplifying the victories of peaceful industry with tho wild enthusiasm that, once characterized her. There were many, who, taking these things into consideration, were ready to prophecy that the entire procession would bo a flat failure, but the intelligent energy of Messrs. Gall, Ilolton and Scott, of the Board of Trade committee, snatched victory out or ueieat, and made the industrial display part of tho parade save the day aud give to the thousands who crowded tho streets on tho line of march a -varied and interesting panorama of the industries of this citv and one well worth coming out to see. There was a noticeable absence of men on horse back, very few of thoso chosen to be on the guttering stall of either of tho chief mar shals materializing with steeds and trap pings, but notwithstanding this shrinkage Z - A A 111 monnieu pomp, xne procession started wiui admirable promptness. The time fixed for the procession to move was t:iX o'clock. The delay was but half an hour, and at 10 o clock, headed bv a de tachment of fort3' policemen, commanded by tap:, lioiiert Campbell, the proc toon, starting from Tennessee stre 1 . 1 inovca at a quicK step east on W ashington street. Next came Col. X. K, Ktickle and stati, lollowed by three military companies. Company E. Second Heiriment (Indianapolis Merchant Zouaves). commanded by Capt. Jacob Fox. 20 men: Company E, Second Kegiment tGoveruor 's Guards), Capt. Tarlton,:x)men; Company 31, Third Kegiment (Koss Guards, Capt. Porter, 24 men. The Second Kegiment band here camo into line, heading what was designated as the labor demonstration part ot the procession. Ibe Cigar-makers' Union came first, with eighty-six men, each ( carrying a Chinese umbrella. There were ' two largo floats, one covered with mottoes kucIi as "Support Home Industry," "Patronize Your Own Workintrmen." which seemed like echoes of tho late presidential .campaign; the other represented a number of Chinese cigar-makers at work, and bore a streamer with the words, 'Chinamen no Likee Light Hours." The German Typographical Union had 10 men in line, the IndianapolisTynographical Union about VX). the Pressmen's Union about the same, the 3Ioulders' Union 40 men. Tho Union Band camo next, heading the Car penters' Union with 72 men, the Painters Union. 48 men. and tho Bakers Lninu. S3 men. There were a few marchers, twenty perhaps, representing other trades and end ing tho labor feature of tho parade. This was succeeded by a dozen carriages containing the Maynr. Rv. (). C. 3IcCulloch, mem ners of the Council and Board ot Aldermen and invited guests. TIIK F.IGIIT-IIOL'U SUPPORTERS. A Plcnlo Where KTerythlng Tended to Help One's Enjoyment of the Day. The eight-hour labor picnic at Ham . mond's grove, yesterday afternoon, was a success. The Lake Erie & Western rail
road had special trains to the gTove every
hour after the morning street parade in tne city, and in addition to the hundreds who traveled thereon, many went in carriages and wagons. Fully S.ooo people were on the grounds by 4 o'clock, and from that hour . all gave themselves up to tho numerous and varied amusements that were offered. The entire programme of tho day was intended tor the working classes and naturally the crowds were drawn almost entirely from their ranks. Boating, dancing and games of chance were carried on in suflicieut variety to please the most exacting, while others derived hours of enjoyment 1 from strolling in the woods or reclining under the forest trees which are so pientuui in the locality. The usual sport ing element that prosper on such occasons was kept .in check. althonsrh soma thirty or fortv professional gamblers from the city were on hand with their nrenarntions' to fleece the unwary. Their operations were early stopped by tho ...... - 1 1 1M. nnU . commmee in cnarge, uuwoer. ap wmj accident of the day was the overturning 01 a boat on Fall creek, in which were a man and wife, both of whom were rescued by Charles Arnold, iso special police were on the grounds, and really there was no call fny nnr natlim-n T-rr n n il i fitnrlirmreS hfyonda few unruly fellows who wero quickly brought to order by the eflicicnt com mittee. The speech of the dav was delayed some what, owing to tho fact that the speaker failed to appear until after tho arrival of 21... 1 a. x. : e 2 1 i i. r ..'(.tnnlr 1110 iaii nam iiuiii tuo -ijr. " .v . William H. Nichols, in company with P. J. 3IcGuire, of Philadelphia, general secretary of the Carpenters' and Joiners' United Brotherhood, and a committee 01 escort, ascended the platform which had been erected for the occasion. Then the exercises began by Mr. Nichols saying that he knew of no better way of celebrating the Fourth than by taking up a collection tor the Clay county miners. Hats were passed through the crowd, and a to tal of i secured. 3lr. jucuuire was then introduced. His speech was confined to the eight-hour question. The reduction of the hours of labor, ho held, is alike necessary when viewed from a moral or material stand-point, and the demand has a bftsis of both reason and ritrht. The citizen and the state, he continued, are alike interested in its adoption. England, a monarchy, and Australia, one ot her colonies, nave long since iea in mis reform, whilo America, a republic, lags behind, and has not made a step in advance in this direction for forty years. There is no . valid reason why workingmen in this country should toil longer than those of Kngland or Australia, but there are many reasons why the hours of labor here should be shorter. America, the speaker said, is a selfgoverning republic and the people are presumed to make tho laws. These will bo good or bad, just or unjust in proportion to the intelligence of tho masses. But the masses cannot bo intelligent uuless they have more time to think, and they cannot have time to think when long hours provail. It is utterly impossible for the average man to work at hard, manual labor for long hours each day and remain a thinking man. Tho possibility of exceptions to this rule was discussed and conceded, for some men are gifted with such constitutions that they can endure the greatest privations. But the average man is not a Samson in physical strength. His powers aro limited and should bo used with care, instead of being wantonly and unnecessarily abused. To the rise and adoption of lalwr-saving machinery 3Ir. 3IcGuire attributed the fact that so many people are to-da3' without work. But for those who have cmpio3ment the aim should be, he said, economy of power and full enjoyment of life. To this end the motto of every wage-worker should be: "Eight hours for toil, eight for sleep, and eight for tho exercise of personal liberty, in eating, education, amusement and for the cultivation of tho domestic aflections." Tho great laws of nature. man and God are in trinities in threes. There are three, kingdoms, mineral, vegetablo and animal; three consistencies of the fundamental elements, earth, air and water; three sources and mediums of natural light, sun, moon and stars: three places of existence, heaven, earth and hell. And by this triple analogy the sneaker held that workingmen are entitled to have their time similarly divided. After quoting some statistics showing tho advantages of tho eight-hour system,; V. -1 11.:.. ..1. ' ' cioseu ins speecu. The remainder of the evening was spent in dancing and amusemeuts of all kinds. 3Iany families took supper on the grounds from their well-filled baskets, and at 8 o'clock all left, feeling that the day had beeu well spent. The Fourth at the Insane Hospital. Superintendent Wright, of the Insane Hospital, inaugurated a new custom yesterday, by providing a Fourth of July entertainment for the patients of the insti tution, and ho is much pleased with the immediate result of tho experiment. A large platform was erected in tho grove. and at 2:80 o'clock all tho inmates assem bled there and were entertained for an hour and a half. The Declaration of In dependence was read, and a couple of pa-' triotic songs sung. There were other songs and dances, led by 3Iiss Lizzie Kvan and John Heimbaugh. The effect the en-' tertainment had upon the incurably in sane was surprising. Many of tho most A ' A iron oiesome seemea ro enioy xne outing and the exercises.

Among tho picnics yesterday was that of tho stenographers and their friends, who went to Bethany Park, and had a good time in boating and playing all kinds of out-door games. The Indianapolis Shooting Asso ciation had a private gathering at tho Shooting Park. Only persons who had invitations wero admitted to the ground, and the attendance on that account was not large.

Sullivan Arrives at New Orleans and Is Warmly Greeted by His Admirers. Kilrain Spends Yesterday in Cincinnati, and Will Leave for the South To-Day How . the Tiro 3Ien Look The Betting. SULLIVAN'S ARRIVAL, He Slips Quietly Into New Orleans and Put In a Few Hours Exercising. Nlw ORLEANS, La.. July 4. Renaud. Ste vens and Duffy, who left town last night to look up an available site 'for the tight in event of Governor bowery fulfilling his threat to camp the State militia on the State line, returned this morning. All are uncommunicative, but admit that they have in view half a dozen places easy of access by roads previously agreed upon. There will be a conference on the subject when Charley Johnson and Jim Wakely arrive, and the question will be delinitely decided. The managers admit that unfore seen obstructions may prevent the fight taking place on Monday, but say the men are bound to come together during the week, even if they fight in a private room, with one hundred spectators. A large crowd gathered at the Queen & Crescent depot this morning to receive John L. Sullivan and party, who were ex pected to arrive. The hour of the expected arrival was not known, and the crowd waited in anxious suspense until about 10 o'clock, when it was reported that the train would arrive at 11 o'clock. A few minutes after that hour the train arrived, but Sullivan, Muldoon and two others who had been in the party were not on the train. It appears other arrangements had been made, aud Messrs. Pat Duffy and Lon Lamothe, to whom had been intrusted the managenunt of the men, drove out to Gentilly Crossing, about three miles from the depot, and there intercepted the trair.. fcuinvan, Muidoon, uieary and Lynch alighted from the train and entered carriages wljich wero in waiting, and were driven to private quarters. The party did not proceed to Spanish Fort, as was anticipated, as there is a Fourth of July celebration in progress there, and Sullivan's trainers have determined to keep him quiet; hence ho will not take up his ? narters at the fort uutil to-morrow. Snlivan was dressed in a gray-woolen shirt, light 6int of clothes and gray hat. lie ap pears to be in splendid condition physical ly, and sprang lithely to the ground from the high steps of tho coach. The tickets for the forthcoming fight have been re ceived, and were taken charge of by Mr. Bud Renaud, who has charge of the financial portion of the mill. Tnero will be two A A f A A A A Trams our ior tuo scene 01 tne ngnt on Monday morning, and arrangements have been made with a private police company for an adequate nnnibcr of picked policemen to go on the trains. Kilrain arrives to-morrow, and will doubtless also be smuggled in. The streets in the vicinity of the St. Charles Hotel, where thelSullivan party, except John L. himself, and Muldoon, his trainer, had taken quarters, were crowded with a gaping, curious crowd. Every man who had been of tho party who arrived on tho train was an attraction, and when they sallied forth into the streets were followed around by crows of urchins and young men. Some of the big men in the party wero pointed out by practical jokers as the genuine Johu L. Sullivan, and in a few moments the individual would fiud himself followed about by a crowd which he was unable to shake off. Cleary, one of Sullivan's trainers, came to the hotel several times during the afternoon, and a crowd invaribly llockd into the rotunda after him, and when he stopped to speak to any of his friends, tho mob crowded around him eacrer to catch anv word he might utter. The St. Jo Kid. Vank Sulli van, Joe Coburn and other fistic celebria i. r r 1 j. , j. lies came in iora iair snare 01 admiration. There were fully 3,000 persons at the Queen & Crescent depot to watch for the arrival of Sullivan and partv, tho small boys being in the majority. They climbed upon the roof of cars, depots, platforms and sheds, and as a party alighted, the air rang wi th cheers and shou t s, "That's him," "Hurrah for Sullivan." etc. Sullivan and Muldoon took quarters at tho corner of Kampartaud Custom-houso streets, just opposite the rooms of the Young Men s CJj'mnasiuin Club. This fact soon became known, as well as tho fact that he would go over to the club-rooms dnring the afternoon for practice. The streets were soon crowded, and the peoplo waited anxiously for tho appearance of the lion of the hour. A rain commenced falling at about 3 o'clock, hut numbers of those who were watching braved the elements aud received a drenching. At 5:15 o'clock Sullivan, Cleary and Muldoou appeared and rushed over to the rooms of the Gymnasium Club. Their appearance was tho signal for a loud cheer, which brought great numbers to tho scene. A squad of police officers were on hand to preserve order and prevent the crowd from trospassing on the club's grounds or intruding into the building. Sullivan was attired in a dark coat, light trousers and white Miouch hat. A goodly number of tho members of the club were present, and welcomed the guests with cheers. The party retired to the gymnasium, and all three stripped themselves for exercise. Sullivan skipped the rope forabout half an hour and then had a bout with tho sand-bag, whicli he hit viciously. lie showed up in excellent condition, and gave evidence of his extraordinary agility and quickness. After about an hour's exercise the threo prize-fighters descended to the baths, and remained in the water about fifteen minutes. They then returned to the dressinirroom, where Sullivan underwent the drying and rubbing down process, Muldoon and Clearv pertorming the labor. During this time Sullivan was in excellent spirits, and snoke nleasantlv to his attendants and tho bv-standers. lie was to all appearances in prime conumon, auu Jimaoon ana uieary were proud of this, and several times called tho attention of those in the room to his fine condi tion. They talked of taking a carriago ride after their bath, but Muldoon vetoed this. After they had donned their clothing the threo pugilists proceeded to the meeting-room of the' club, where .1 bowl of punch was partaken of by the members of the club. Sullivan. Muldoon and Cleary sat by an open window, and soon opera glasses were leveled at them by parties in the adjolniug residences, and Sullivan and Muldoon bowed. To bottles of ale were then brought forward, and Sullivan, Mul doon and Chary each partook of a glass. Cheers were given for each of the trio, and at 7 o'clock they returned to their quarters. The advent ot Sullivan caused his friends here to become jubilant.bnt in no wise abated the enthusiasm of the Kilrain men. Thev are more confident than ever that their man will come out of the battle the victor. They hold that tie odds offered on Sullivan are caused by sentimental feeling, and when Kilrain pnts in an appearance the current will be turned. At the present time all of Sullivan's friends and backers are here, and they offer odds on their man foreilect. Pools were being sold to-night, with odds ofiered on Sullivan, but the sale will be continued every evening, and they allow the result will bn different. Sullivan and party will doubtless leave early in the morning for Spanish Fort, where he will remain in training until the day of tho fight. There appears to bo a good deal of ill feeling between the partisans of Sullivan and Kilrain. About the hotel rotundas to-dav there were a good many acrimonious discussions in which the expletives used were more forcible than elegant. There seems to be a disposition on the part ot interested parties to get every dollar there is in sight, and tho question of -admitting even members of the local press is causing some bitterness among the respective managers. It has been decided that each local paper shall be allowed two representatives, and each of the prominent outside papers will bo allowed but one. As a matter ot fact, none of the papers care a snap about this matter, but if the parties who have engineered this fight imagine that they can fake this community they are reckoning without their host. It has been arranged that no part of the . gate money . will be paid over until the fight is finally decided, and if there is not a square , light it will not be paid over at ell. but be returned to tho ticket-holders. Tbia ia tho
programme of the local managers and they are reliable men and will be very apt to carry out their own programme. KILRAIN AT CINCINNATI
He Arrives, Tired and Looking Unwell Hit Hackers Confident. Cincinnati, July 4. A large crowd assembled at the Central Station this morning to meet Jake Kilrain. who arrived in this city at 9:40, nearly an hour late. As Kilrain was about to descend from the car, two large cakes of ice wero placed on the car steps, impeding his progress. A bystander observed: "That's a rather cold reception, Jake, but you aro all right" Kilrain was dressed in a plain plain dark unit, and wore a llanuel shirt. It was evident that he bore . his long jour ney hardly. He looked pale and worn and his eyes were dull and sunken. In reply to the reporter's question Kilrain answered: 'l am feeling' first rate, and could not be in better trim. I am sure of winning." As the train was late, Charlio Mitchell, Kilrain's backer, tried to have tho Queen &, Crescent train flagged at Eighth street, so that the party could proceed on their journey. When they reached Eighth street, however, it was found that the train had gone, and they went to the jiurnex iionse. un tne tnn irom uaiumore Kilrain occupied a sleeping berth, and did not train at all. He intends simply to rest until he reaches JNew Orleans. All along the route hundreds of people gathered at tho railroad stations to see him. Mr. James Roche, of the Baltimore Amer ican, one of Kilrain's party, is very confident of his friend's success. He. says: Kilrain has been a sober man all his life. and Sullivan has been a 'lusher.' Sullivan will bo whipped before ho knows it." The feeling in Cincinnati seems to bo that Kilrain has very little chance against his big opponent, but there is comparatively little betting on either man, because, as a prominent sporting man of this city says, nobody is betting on the fight because everybody believes that it will not come off. Auother says that there are plenty of men willing to bet on Sullivan, but they have no takers. Kilrain's party numbers about thirty men. Charlie Mitchell. Kilrain's trainer, is a prominent figure. Among the others, aro Dominick McCaffery, Billy Madden Pat Sherklv, Pat Roonev, John E. Murphy, Billy Collier, George Cassidy, Pony Moore, and J. R. Rook. The feeling in the city with respect to Kilrain seems to be one of disappointment, though those who have had a chance to see him closely say that his mus cles are firm, and that he is in first-class condition. To-day Kilrain took no exercise whatever, not even so much as to take a walk, but kept himself close to his rooms at the Burnet House, and few of the callers had a chance to see him. The betting to-night is very slow and for small sums, the usual odds being $10 to $7 against Kilrain. After the disappointment, this morning, at missing connections it was first intended to go to-night, but as it was learned that the difference in tho time of reaching New Orleans was very slight, they decided to go to-morrow, preferring to stay only one night in a sleeping-car. Kilrain retired early to-night, and will leave tomorrow for New Orleans on the 7:50 train, which will reach New Orleans at 11 o'clock Saturday morning, provided 110 delays occur. - Kilrain's Superstition. New York Special. v . They were discussing the fight in the Hoffman House, this afternoon, when a gray-haired veteran chipped in with a curious story about Jake Kilraiu. T believe," said he, "that Jake is to-day a better man in every way than John, but as I think he will go into the fight with a faint heart, I sha'n't have a dollar on it." "Why should ho be faint-hearted!" asked half a dozen voices in chorus. "Well, I'll tell you; it's a curious story, but I can vouch for the tmth of it, as I had it direct from poor Top' Magnire. "Jake is a very superstitious man, and early in hia fighting career ho had his fortune told by some wonderful prophetess,, whose name escapes my ineniory. The woman told hira that he would ono day cross the ocean to fight; that ho would not be beaten, but that his future prospects would not be in any way improved by his trip. She said further that he would never know defeat until he met a black-haired man in the ring, and that if he ever did his luck would break. "After his fight with Smith, Jake told ' this story to Magnire, with all gravity, and said that, as tho first part of the prediction had como true, he should, if ever Sullivan and himself came together, take extra precaution against accidents orpossi-' ble foul play." The crowd laughed, and the Major was condemned to set up tho drinks as a punishment for insinuating that Kilrain was so -weak-minded as to be influenced by such nonsensical twaddle. "Well," 'said one of the party, as glasses were drained to the toast of "May tho Best Man Win," "Sully can't bo the hoodoo that the prophetess foresaw would cross Jake's path, as his hair ain't black, anyhow." "Yon bet it is; black as a coal," echoed the chorus. . "Not a bit of it." persisted the undaunted one; "he's as gray as a badger on each side of the head, and" the covering of his scalp now ranks in tho pepper-and-salt variety class." . Dr. Cronln's Ilrother an KnglUh Priest. Boston, July 4. In this week's issue of tho Pilot appears the following letter, signed "One who Knows:" Boston, June 24, 1889. To the Editor of the Pilot: This fact oupht to be known In connection with the murder of Dr. Crouin: He had a brother whose name is not Cronin, but Reek : who is net Irish, but Knglish. I am sorry to have to drag his name into such a relation. He is, or was a few weeks ago. Itcv. Joserh Reeks, of St. Geome's Cathedral, Ixmdon. He was completely rotrated at the news of his brother's murder n Chicago. Dr. Cronin has of late years made repeated secret visits to liondon, and has always called on or Btoppj'd with his brother. Father Keeks. Investigation of this statement will prove its truth. Padlier's Catholic Directory for 1881 substantiates this statement fo far a to locate Father Keeks at St. George's Cathedral, Westminster Bridge Koad, 8. E., Surrey. i An Indianlan'M Claim for 03,000,000. St. Paul, Minn., July 4. George W. Ewing, of Fort Wayne, Inch, has ma do a claim, through an attorney, to one-tifteenth interest in property in various parts of St. Paul, estimated: to be worth about $2,000,000. Notices of this claim have been served on all the owneis of the affected property. On Dec. 31, 18(3, George W. Kwing, jr., conveyed to his father, George W. Kwing, considerable real estate in this county in trust, to devote the income for the maintenance of the grant, or during his life, and at his death to revert to his legal representatives. Both the trustee anu grantor are dead, and George W. Ewing. third and only son of George . Ewing. jr., havingnow become of age, iutends to bring suit to recover the property, unless a satisfactory adjustment can be made. Murdered by a Jealous Hunband. Chicago. July 4.

SCIENCE AS A DF.TECTIVE.
An Effective Ally of Society In th Struggle Against Crime. Boston ArtTertlser. Recent events make this a fit time for calling attention to the degree in which modern science has become an ally of society in tho struggle of the latter to defend itself agaiust crime. At Winnipeg, a man suspected of having been concerned in the murder of Dr. Cronin is under arrest, in consequence of being accidentally included in a photograph of the bceno of th crime. Hunker Hill day in Charleston a select company of Brooklyn pick-pockets were gathered into the focus of a detective camera. Chemical science has become so exact that when a human being has met his death by poison, the deadly drug can be traced even in a single drop of blood. The microscope has increased manifoldly the ditliculty of committing a forgery that bhali escape discovery. The electric light Hashes its intense brightness into unfrequented streets, into narrow allej's and into regions of great cities where dangerous classes swarm, so that deeds of darkness can no longer bo committed with the impunity of former times. While tho absconding criminal is traveling by steam the message asking for his apprehension is flying literally with lightning speed. Great as are the services now constantly rendered by science in the prevention, detection and punishment -of crime, those which seem likely to bo rendered in the future will, if realized, be greater still. It may not be long ere the phonograph is brought into court as an unimpeachable witness, to repeat the exact words in the exact tones ot conspirators guilty of planning bribery or burglary. The French savant did not utter any absumity who predicted that eventually . instruments would be devised of 6uch exquisite perfection that they could transfer from the retina of a murdered person's eye a picture of the awful object on which the victim's la6t agonized gaze was fixed. It does not need a llight of fancy to foretell great results in aid of the police that are possible from further developments of such marvelous powers as were possessed by the lato "mindreader," Mr. W. I. Bishop. - The theme is an absorbing one. aud mieht be much further expanded. Perhaps it has not heretofore been sutliciently dwelt upon. There is danger lest we look too exclnsivelr on the utilitarian side of science. It will be well if we bear in mind that in many ways, including such as have been hinted at above, the astounding progress made in this century towards unlocking the secrets of matter and mind is tending not only to make men better acquainted with natural laws, but also to make them more obedient to civil laws. A National Flower That Takes the Biscuit. New York San.
