Sullivan. Kilrain felt like a race-horse, ho continued, bnt hi9 qnict and reserved manner did not show it. He was an easy-going man, but bo would be there when the timo came. If Mitchell had stood Sullivana right for threo hours and fifteen minutes, Kilrain wonld whip him. he said. Dominick McCaffrey said he had come here to represent the 'ew York World, and was nentral. Ho "would make an unbiased report of the light, and "wonld not exprew on opinion as to tbe probable resnlt. McCaffrey is an authority on pugilism, and has been referee in nearly every mill of any consequence in the North for the past four years. He has been mentioned as referee on Monday next. Billy Madden stated that the reports that ho had reflected upon Sullivan's bravery were false. . He was a game man, and had E roved himself so in every fight ho ad ever seen him in. He came here with Pat Sharkey and Dave Holland to witness tho fight, and did not have a dollar bet on the resnlt. He bad selected Kilrain for Mr. Fox, as tho chamEion. and thin was eutlicient to show what e thought of him. Kilrain is an artist and a good tighter, and he got him tho money to back him against Sullivan, as he had also in the fight with Jem Smith. He bad brought out some of the best fighters of the age, among them Sullivan, Mitchell. Ashton, McCall and Kilrain. lie now had a man. Jack Ashton, who would challenge the winner in the forthcoming tight for $5,000. Ho liked both Sullivan and Kilrain. The party went up stairs and Mitchell gave an exhibition of punching at a large basr snspended from the ceiling. He was followed by Professor Donovan, Dominick Caffrey and liilly Madden, after which Mitchell pat on the gloves with a member of the club. A local physician of prominence saw Kilrain work to-day at the Southern Athletio Club rooms. Kilrain did not strip, but wore a light nndershirtandtights,andonlv exercised a half-hour, punching the ball and using dumb-bells. To an Associated Press reporter he 6aid, after expressing some reluctanco to bo interviewed: "I am verv much disappointed in Kilrain. He loots tired, thin and overtrained. I have not yet seen Snilivan, bnt have no great opinion of Kilrain." "How much do yon think he weighs?'' 'As an off-hand guess, I should say not exceeding 185 pounds.".. This opinion accords with that of other experts, notably sporting writers, with whom the reporter conversed. In fact, the statements of Kilrain and Mitchell are in themselves conflicting. Kilrain told a reporter that he weighed 115 pounds. Mit.chell told the samo reporter that Kilrain weighed 202 pounds, and measured fortytwo inches around the chest, and sixteen inches around the biceps. If Kilrain measures forty-two inches around the chest, appearances are mighty deceptive. The arrival of the Kilrain party has not, as expected, materially aflected the general features of tho situation, Sullivan stock continues to go up, and tho confidence of his backers continues unabated. A benefit was tendered Prof. Mike Donovan, of New York, to-night at the St. Charles Theater, which was well attended. Among the audience were Jake Kilrain, Charley Mitchell, Pony Moore and Messrs. Forrester, of Buffalo, and Masterson, of Denver, who occupied a box. Prof. Dennis Butler of this city, proposed three cheers for Kilrain, which were given with a will, followed by three rousing cheers for Sullivan and a tiger for Mitchell. The wind-up of the entertainment at 10:10 was four rounds between Donovan and Mitchell, in which the English boxer showed a good advantage. Just previous to the close, in response to repeated calls, Kilrain descended from the box to the stage, and, after bowing in response to the cheers he received, spoke as follows: "1 thank you for your kind reception to myself and party this evening, and I will not detain you with a speech, but kindly. bid you all good night." Amid loud cheers Kilrain nimbly ascended to the box from the stage and witnessed the wind-up of the entertainment. At 10:45 the Kilrain party were driven to their hotel and retired for the night. SULtfVAN AND HIS TRAINER.
Muldoon rieased with Ills Principal's Condition and Boastful of Ills Powers. New Orleans, June 6. Sullivan continues to improve with the approach of tho momentous day which is to make or mar him forever, but Muldoon's watchfulness and scientific caro hov no abatement. Whatever the issue of the fight Muldoon's reputation as an unequaled trainer is established beyond tho possibility or dispute or cavil. He found his man a physical wreck, weakened by disease1 and bloated by dissipation, and in less than three months he ban brought him to a condition of physical perfection which is tho wonder of the pugilistic world. Men who have known Sullivan all their lives and seen him in all his battles declare that he was never more fit in all bis fistic career. Some even go so far as to assert that he is better than ever. This view is open to dispute, however, because of a trifle too much flesh about tho region of the stomach. This 8uperllnity of llesh, however, will not affect him injuriously, say his trainer and friends, as it is perfectly firm and hard, and shows no sensitiveness when patted or rubbed down after tho usual two hours of afternoon work. , An Associated Press reporter called upon Muidoou, this afternoon, and found him serenely confident. His reply to the question, "How is SullivauT" was: IIe is all right. 1 am satisfied with him. I can't say anything that will express more than that. I h:ivc more at stake than any one else than Sullivan himselfand I am Satisfied with his condition. ' All I ask now is for the fight to come off. If it is prevented by any cause, we will go on training as if nothing had happened, uutil the tight docs come off. 1 have no doubt as to the honesty and sincerity of Kilrain himself, bnt I have little faith .in tho men behind him, whom I regard as tricksters." When asked as to Sullivan's weight, ho replied: "He weighs 202 pounds to-day, and will probably take on two pounds a day more- until the fight begius. which will bring him up to about tJOT pounds. He is ready now and auxious to begin earnest work. He is in excellent spirits, singing and chatting merril3 Ho never refers to tho fight, nor are wo anxious to arouso hi impetuous temper by descussing the subject. His manner convinces mo that ho is confident of winning. That confidence we all share' Muldoon's manner manner is better than that of the average 6iort, and his face and speech indicate intelligence. The following incident will demonstrate how he endeavors to turn every little circumstance to the advantage of his charge: While at his training quarters ou his farm near Kochester he devoted 6ome timo to foot-ball exercise with bulliyan. lie soon discovered that boys in the neighborhood would scale the fence in his absence and have a go at the ball themselves. In order to stop them he tilled the ball with with rock so as to make kicking it an unpleasant diversion for intruders. One day the idea struck him to play hand-ball with the rock-stuffed foot ball, and ho found the exerciso perfectly calculated to develop the muscles, reduce the llesh and harden the sinews, without impairing their elasticity. Sullivan, who is himself no mean judge of training devices, approved of the idea. A new ball was accordingly constructed, filled with a four-pound stone, and covered with yarn. The ball is ten inches in diameter and weighs ten pounds, and has proven the favorite training instrument of the big lugger. He works with it every day. Another innovation of Muldoon's will surprise old timers. Sullivan will go into tho ring wearing a plaster of pine pitch, which will encircle his body like a woman's corset, ana cover almost as much space. It was made in New York after a design furnished by Muldoon. It is made of buckskin, lined with pine .pitch. It fits tight like a belt, and is almost twelve inches wide all the way around. It is said to have a very bracing and strengthening eftect on those who wear it. Muldoon says that Kilrain will probably also wear one like it. Mitchell having copied the idea from him. The reporter asked Mitchell today if the wearing of such a plaster would furnish ground for a technical objection. Ho replied it would not. leaving tho impression on the reporter's mind that not only Sullivan, but Kilrain also will go into the ring braced up with a pitch plaster. Snilivan epeut to-day much the same as yesterdaj. He rose at 7 o'clock, took a Lath, ate breakfast at 8, and afterward received the attentions of a barber. His breakfast consisted, as usual, of broiled chicken, tea, and toast and grits. While
in the barber s hands he fell asleep. Muldoon did not rouso him, but let him sleep an hour. After that the business of the day began. The big ball was brought out and tossed about until tho perspiration poured from the gladiator's body. Then followed dnmb-bell exercise. At 1 o'clock the big Bostonian lunched, and developed an enormous appetite. It took three spring chickens to satisfy him. in addition to a plentiful supply of chicken broth and nce. A small glass of ale was also allowed him. At 3 o'clock he crossed over to tho gymnasium and again began tossing the big ball Afterward he skipped the rope two hundred times, and after a brief interval repeated tho exercise four times, making the total number of times skipped one thousand. This will end his preparation for the fight, unless a postponement becomes inevitable. Sullivan's seconds were decided upon six weeks ago, but the choice is kept a pro-, found secret. The reporter thinks it safe to predict they will be Joe Coburu and Mike Cleary. Coburn is full of resources and up to all the tricks of the trade, and would make an invaluable second. When asked about it bv the reporter he was noncommittal, but declared himself willing to servo. Sullivan Chafing Under Restraint New Orleans, July C While Kilrain has the run of the town to-night, "the Boston boy is closely confined to his room. Tho door of the room is locked on the outside, and Muldoon has the key in his breeches pocket, hy the latter's orders Sullivan is not at home to even his most intimate friends. The champion is growing tired of the close restraint, and this morning ho manifested an inclination to make a round of the town with a negro cancan to-night as a finale. Thereupon Muldoon turned the key in tho door, and from the outside proceeded to read the riot act. The present, Muldoon said, was no time for fooling, bo had himself put in too ntuch money to take any risks at this Into 6tage, and he proposed to be master until the beginning of the mill Monday morning. Thero is one thing I want you to understand," he remarked to Sullivan, "you are in for a three-hours mill two hours of monkeying and an hour of solid work."
three hours be was Sullivan's morose response. him, I'll whip him in twenty minutes." A good deal more talk of the same character was indulged in, but it ended in an expression of unreserved willingness on Sullivan's part to leave himself in his trainer's hands. The latter, however, was taking no chances and so ho determined to keep his man in solitary confinement for at least eighteen hours. His term will expire at 6 o'clock to-morrow morning, when, according to the programme known only to the initiated few, the champion will bo smuggled out through a back alley and driven to a yacht in waiting at Lake End. All day to-morrow the vessel will crnise about Lake Pontchartrain. At sundown the word will be given, and the captain will make for a point in waiting at midnight. This is a change from the programme as announced yesterday, for reasons satisfactory to the Sullvan management, but it will be adhered to unless intervening developments combine to make it impracticable. Kilrain will go out by train on Sunday evening, as previously arranged. Sullivan has not been allowed to see a daily paper since he left Cincinnati, and he knows no more of the public pulse, or of what has been written concerning him pro and con, of the statu j of the betting, or of the movements or condition of his opponent than does the man in tho moon. He only knows that he has got to fight, and fight to win, and he assured Muldoon, at the close of tho interview previously referred to, that he intended to do it. THE FIGfIT WILL TAKE PLACE. Sporting Men Say There Is No Law in Louisiana to Prevent Priie-Fightlng. New Orleans, July 6. The Sullivan people are speculating on Kilrain' s pluck, and the Kilrain people are worrying themselves about Sullivan's condition. All theso matters form topics for universal discussion, but the rumored threat of the Governor to interfere with the fight by means of military inliuenco was most talked of at tho hotels and among the friends of tho two men this afternoon. 'Even though this report is untrue, do you think there is anything to fear in the nature of a prevention of the fight'" a reporter inquired of one of the managers of the fight, last night. "No. there is not. We have consulted legal talent, anil we have found that there ia nothing on the Louisiana hooks that can touch us for prize-fighting, no matter how partisan an interpretation tho Governor may make of various statutes. The Attorney-general and the district attorney are both of the opinion that there is no law that can reach us, save the trilling one, perhaps, of fighting and disturbing the peace. lint we don't Leo wherein wo shall bo disturbing the peace of any one when tho fight is to take place on private property far removed from any populated section. The ring will bo pitched in the woods, and we have taken every precaution to insure the best of order. The people who are buying tickets from us and who are going to the fight aro not men who would under any circumstances engage in any riotous demonstration, and we have iust as much iuterest in having a quiet and well-conducted fight as the high officers of the State. 'There is nothing in the world that will prevent a decision of tho merits of the. two men. If the military power of the State is called out, and is able to reach the scene of battle, then tho mill might temporarily be stopped, but if we are interfered with in our rights the people in authority will be held to legal accountability. If kilrain is a anxious to fight as wo know Sullivan is tho two men will be brought together. We have a reputation as sporting men to maintain. The tight has been written up with unusual thoroughness throughout tho country, and wo cannot afibrd to be at tho bead of a 'duke.' Wo have attracted jeoSle hither from all parts, and wo mean to o all in our power, while not breaking the law, to secure a result. If we cannot fight here, if there is law to prevent us, we can go somewhere else. The battle-ground is on private property, and I cannot seo how we can possibly be interfered with. I promise you there will be a fight Monday." Tho time when the cars will leave may be changed at the last moment in order to avoid too much publicity, and if matters are rushed, as it is expexted they will be, the articles of agreement will be mutually waived in so far as the timo of fighting is considered, and the men will go into tho ring when the first faint rays of dawn appear in the sky. Unless the opinion of ablo ring followers is wroug, the fight will hardly last over an hour, and if this be the case, the entire party, principals, excursionists, telegraph operators and all, can get back to the city before the (governor gets out of bed. unless, on this occasion, he stays up all night. In order to avoid the possibility of arrest, it is stated to-day that Sullivan will leave the city at the conclusion of the battle, or as soon as he can dress himself again in street clothes: this, of course, if he is not too severely punished to travel. Sullivan himself told a reporter that he would follow out this programme, and it is fair to presume that Kilrain will follow the same line. If there is a fight, it is safe to predict that New Orleans will be thoroughly thinned out of prize-fighting people by Tuesday or Wednesday. Disposition or Troop In Mississippi. Jacksos, Miss., July C By the disposition made to-day of the troops belonging to the National Guard of Mississippi, the several railroads leading into the State from Louisiana have been covered so as to prevent, if possible, the light between Sullivan and Kilrain taking place in Mississippi. Hteps have also been taken to secure the arrest of the parties, should tbey by chance manage to avoid the ottlcers of the law and fltfht in tbe Ktate. Would Like to Fight In Arkansas. Little Rock, Ark., July H. Tho action taken by the Governors of Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana, in regard to the Mullivan-Kilrain fight has !cen the cause of considerable discussion among the sporting men in this city. No little surprise, notwithstanding this fact, was occasioned hi ofllclal cheles at a late hour to-night by tho receipt f a telegram by Governor Eagle, asking permission for Sullivan and Kilrain to tight ou Mt. Nebo, a beautiful mountain rising several thousand feet above the Arkansas river. It is quite a itopular resort, where hundreds of Arkansas Ieopl spend the summer, and would doubtless luaka a rood location for Uid batthvgroand.
Joseph Evans, the owner of the resort, sent the telegram to the Governor, lie is a reliable nn (inrnprnr irna nt. flrfc (llnnerl tft
treat the matter as a joke, but when convinced A I A A V. A. S inai me telegram was genuine, repiieu luaiuo would not permit the tight to occur on Arkansas soil if he could prevent it. ' ' ' AMONG THE SPORTS. The Queer-Looking Gentry to Be Seen at the St. Charles Hotel What They Say. New Orleans, July C-The St. Charles Hotel is tho headquarters of many of the visiting sports, and nearly all of tho newspaper correspondents. The scenes around this noted hotel were very animated this afternoon. Nearly all the guests have an unmistakable sporting air about them. They are mostly pugilists from every section of the country, sporting characters who have never missed a fight, and correspondents who have done every battle during the past fifteen years. They mingle freely, and each has his opinion as to tho outcome of the great mill, which ho expresses with common frequency. Checked suits, straw hats, russet shoes and flannel shirts are tho prevailing costumes of these gentry. Many of them bear marks on their laces of hard scraps, and frequently an ear or piece of nose is found missing. The former aristocratic guests of the hotel, if they could reappear upon the scene now, would instinctivelj feel down to see if their watches and money were safe iu their pockets. Kilrain, accompanied by Charley Mitchell, came to the hotel about 1 o'clock, and was followed by a nnmerous crowd, who were anxious to get a sight of the man who is to stand against Sullivan. They did not linger long, and tho crowd that followed them in likewise followed them out. While the city is already well filled with visiting sports, tho big crowd is expected to-morrow, and no doubt suitable accommodations will be at a premium. It is understood the first train that departs for the battleground will pull out about 1 o'clock Monday morning, to be followed one hour later by the train which will contain spectators. Those who are here to witness tho light will get no sleep on Sunday night, and it is expected that both men will enter the ring between 6 and 8 o'clock on Monday morning. Sullivan continuesa hot fayonte.and, barring accidents, the general impression prevails that he will win. Col. A. Andrews and son are registered at the St. Charles. Col. Andrews came all the way from San Francisco to seo the big battle, and left home last Sunday. Ho had faith in the earnestness of the two men, and came simply and solely to seo one of the men win the faght. Col. Andrews is a good looking old gentleman, with a courteous manner and pleasant address. He is a well-to-do citizen of tho Pacific slope, but is an admirer of athletics, belongs to the leading athletic association in San Francisco, and has seen most of the big fights that have been fought in his generation. When the Colonel was asked who would win the tighi he replied. "Kilrain I believe, but I want to see a good tight and the better man the victor." Young Andrews does most of the talking of the party and he has pinned his faith and a good deal of his money to Sullivan. The two men brought with them a magnificently carved gold-headod cane which is to be presented to tho loser of the fight. Colonel Andrews and his son will return to San Francisco as soon as tho big mill is over. THE ACCIDENT AT TIUXTON'S. The Charred Remains of Seven Victims Burled at Roanoke The Number Killed.

All of the wounded brought to this city havo been sent to their homes. Only three bodies were identified, and not the slightest trace of road engineer James, fireman Bruce, janitor Mallon, train-dispatcher Lipsey or Nathan Cohen, of this city, has been discovered. ' Engineer and ISaggagemaster Killed. Jamestown, N. Y., July C Early this morning passenger train No. 10, east-bound, on the New York, Pennsylvania & Ohio railway, and freight No. 85 came together near Kennedy. The wreck is one of the worst that ever occurred in this vicinity. Both engines were completely demolished, freight cars piled up, and the smoker of the passenger train 4 was forced clear through the baggage car. Charles Eisenhelm, of Meadville, l'a., engineer of the freight, and Louis Wentz, of Meadville, Pa., -baggagemaster, were both killed. Both lirenien were injured. The only passenger hurt was Fred fcibley of this city, who was alone in the smoker, and had time to Jump before the crash came. He sprained his ankle. It was very fotrgy when the collision occurred. The blame is paid to bo on the engineer of the freight, who should have waited at Kennedy for the passenger train. Drowned While Boating. Savanna, 111., July 6.

A BATTLE WITH STRIKERS
Duluth Police Attacked by 1,500 Rioters While Guarding Street Workmen. A Deadly Combat Ensues, During Which Two Men Are Killed and Many Others Fatally Wounded Other Labor Troubles. SpedAl to the Indianapolis journal. Duluth, Minn., Jnly 6. At 4:30 this afternoon a deadly combat occurrred between tho police and 1,500 strikers, who have been out of work for tho past week. Tho latter had just come from the East End, and were well armed with clubs, pistols and rocks. At Twentieth avenue west they outgeneraled the police by dividing in two sections, one- going east and tho other west. The police had been guarding seventy men who had preferred not to go on strike, as they were gatisded with their wages. The police went west, being attracted by a noise from the larger body of strikers. The other body then skipped around tho block and began pummeliug the working men with clubs, and stopped them from working. The police turned back when they saw their mistake, and when they reached the sewer-trench. where tho men had been working, were fired on by ono of the strikers. They re turned a whole volley of shots, whereupon the strikers did likewise. This was kept up by both sides for a full half hour, the strikers tiring from behing trenches and buildings, and the police standing bravely in the middle of Michigan street. " After a while Company K, which had been under orders from the Governor since early morning, made its appearanco, and soon cleared the street. One of tho privates, Farrell, was seriously injured by an exploding cartridge. Many innocent persons were injured badly, and some will die. Fol lowing is a list of the dead and injured: Dead Ed Joirxsox. shot through the brain by Detective Benson, who leveled a rifle at him when he was retreating and half a block away, lie was one of the leading strikers. George Peterson, beaten to death by policemen, after he had made an attempt on the life of Officer Ilayden. Injured George Costin, shot In right shoulder; he had just arrived two hours before from Dakota; not fatal. Edward Cummin gs, bayonet wound in groin; not fatal. Tom Fitzsimmon)?, eighteen years old, shot in abdomen; will die, A. Palator, street-car driver, shot in head; not fatally. Louis Nelson, shot in calf of right leg; not serious. Nat Mack, shot through the body, tho bullet passing through right thigh bone and coming out through left groin; will die; Peverln Nelson, bullet in head; will probably recover. Mike Olson, bullet through left leg above the knee, and three through tbe scalp on the left part of the head, and another In the right forearm: very serious, but not fatal. Ole Stamprid, fifteen bullet holes In bis clothes; scratched, but .not seriously injured. Officer Walkoviak, shot through the hip. Officer Kilgore, shot through the shoulder. John Shay, spectator, one finger ehot off while carrying away the boy Fltzsimmons. Captain McLaughlin, phot In the hip; not serious, bergeant Clements, shot in the hand slightly. Orticer Donovan, two bad wounds, one of which Is in the hip. Another dispatch says the strikers first made a rush with clubs and rocks. The police stood their ground, and then the carnage began. The strikers did the first firing. As the strikers mado a rush a single shot was fired, then crack, crack, crack went the rifles of the police, followed by a fusillade from the strikers' revolvers. After the first fire came an awful hush, as though the combatants were appalled at the awful result of their work. On the walk In front of Piedmont, as It joins Garfield avenue, lay a man shot through the heart and several more bleeding from ghastly wounds. Then the strikers, stationing themselves around the buildings In dine rent parts of the block, between Garfield and Eighteenth avenue, poured in a steady fire on the police, who were stationed near the sewer ditch. From 4 o'clock until after 5 the horrible work went on, and the battle did not withhold its fury long enough for the wounded to leave the field. It was after 5 when the last shot was tired, and terrible indeed has been the result. Over thirty-five are known to have been wounded, and two innocent victims, who only were there out of curiosity, paid for it with their lives. Captain Dewltt, of Company K, Second Regiment of the State militia, early this morning leceived orders from Governor Merriam, in fct. Paul, that would allow him to go to tbe scene whenever needed. The big deep bass whistle of Elevator D had been chosen as a signal to call the soldiers together, and about 5:30 this was sounded. In a short time they were rushing for the armory, and In ten minutes were piled into busses and on their way to the scene of disturbance. A succession of taps on the tire bell also aided to call them together. By 6 o'clock they were at the trench where the tragedy had already taken place. At 5:30 Company K arrived, and with their bayonets drove the crowds from Michigan street. The Mayor then made a speech from Michigan-street sidewalk, at the corner of Garfield avenue, ordering the crowd to disperse. Tae iolice and the militia then drovo the crowds from all streets. At 6 o'clock the strikers had dispersed. At least thirty-live men are badly wounded, some It is feared fatally. Five strikers were arrested, all being ringleaders. Unlisted Musicians Refused to Play. San Francisco, July 6. The Musicians' Union, backed by the Federated Trades, prevented any Union bands from taking part in the procession here on Thursday. This was because the citizen's Fourth of July committee reduced the price from 8 to $6 for each man. The Union declared that this should not be tolerated, hence the order. Among the union bands Were .those attached to the First, Second and Third Regiments of the National Guard. They were regularly enlisted men in the militia companies, and when they failed to appear in the parade there was a big row. The colonels of the regiments examined the code, and found that the appearances of all the members was obligatory on the Fourth and also on admission day in September, so the musicians will be arrested for mutiny and court-martialed. In his letter to the brigade commander, Adjutantgeneral Orton says: "If some non-military authority has more power over the militia stationed in San Francisco than the commander-in-chief, now is a better timo to learn it than in an emergency." Will Investigate Suffering Among; Miners. Springfield. 111., July 6. Judge Gould, of Mollne, president of the State Board of Charities, and Mr. Wines, secretary of the board, have been requested by the Governer to make an investigation of the reported suffering of the miners in the northern Illinois district., Mr. Wines will spend a part of the week on the ground, and on the 15th Judge Gould will meet him at Laalle, where they will give a publio hearing to all parties interested who may choose to appear. They are not selected as arbitrators, but it is hoped that their labors will lead to an amicable adjustment of the difficulties. Will Not Employ Union Men. Reading, Pa., July 6. To-day President Corbin, of the Reading railroad, gave notice that the 2,800 employes of the Reading iron-works. which was recently purchased by the railroad company, can expect to resume work at an early date. Mr. Corbin gives notice tbat no one will be employed who belongs to a labor organization, or who indulges in strong drink. They must renounce both, and sign a paper to that eflecL Will Abandon the Shaft. Stkeator, 111., July 6. Another riotous demonstration was made at No. 3 shaft, of the Chicago, Wilmington & Vermillion Coal Company, yesterday.
