fighting is too brutal, and I want to see no more of it." ' Joe Cobarn thought the light was a most excellent exhibition of the manly art He looks upon Sullivan as a perfect wonder, and beyond all preadventure the greatest tighter in the world. At first he was surprised that Sullivan had not knocked out Kilrain much sooner than ho did, but this was satisfactorily explained when the ininry to the champion' left hand'was made Lnown. He did not think Sullivan as good a man yesterday as ho had seen him in other years, but was satisfied that he would neverlxj asked into the -ring again. His training under Muldoon and Cleary was admirable, its results surpassing all expectations, especially as when tirst put to work he was in a wretched condition. There was nothing of him but life, and Muldoon, instead of training him at once, nursed him as if he was a child. Coburn calculates that Sullivan's share of yesterday's mill will net him about JO,000 exclusive of the champion belt, which, Coburn says, Sullivan will return to Fox. Said Colmrn: "Were'I to be called on to tight Sullivan, when the blanket was taken oft and his matchless proportions were displayed, I would say: 'Sullivan, take the money; I don't want it; it belongs to 3'ou."j Poking Fun at the Governors. New Orleans, July 9. Under caption. "The Prize-fight," the States says, editorially: Tbe marvelous military genius displayed by Governor Lowry, of Mississippi, and Governor Nicholbv of Louisiana, in their combined efforts to suppress the SullivanKilrain prize-fight, served but to lend eclat to as flagrant a violation of law and order as was ever committed. Our own Governor arrayed his troops, much on the style of a leader in a deer-stalking expedition, and with them he beat the bushes alone the by-ways of his own bailiwick, until he" had driven the quarry into his friend, . Gov. Lowry's, ground. There the profound strategy of the gigantic crusade against the prize-fighters, and the vast host accompanying them, began to develop into a most excruciating farce, such as the comical genius of the best opera boulle can- never equal. "Nicholls forced the common enemy into his ally's country, and lo! when they huddled there, Lowry's army had either retreated from or become lost in the wilderness in their march, upon Kichbnrg. It is impossible to restrain one's laughter at the sight of Governor Nicholls forcing a host oi law-breakers to pour into Mississippi while Governor Lowry was looking for them everywhere over the immense territory of his State, without hearing from Xicholls or his brave Adjutant-general, or from the general of the Louisiana troops in the field. "In all earnestness, the States never believed that the prevention of crime can be achieved by such a burlesque on military tactics as practiced by civil chief magistrates and militia generals. If Governor Iowry, after his military fiasco, can gather his wits now and issue a requisition upon the Governor of any State where Sullivan and Kilrain and their backers may toe fonnd. and have them apprehended and brought back to Mississippi, to be punished according to law, the example he snail thus set will do more to deter a recurrence of yesterday's lawlessness than tho combined use of all the armies of Louisiana and Mississippi, which yesterday added an element of supreme ridicule to the arrant blunder of a funny pair of Governors." Governor Lowry, of Mississippi, this morning issued a proclamation and states that he will extradite all the participants . in the fight, and especially Sullivan and Kilrain and their seconds. A dispatch from Jackson, Miss., says: Col. E. W. Merrill, who was ordered to Nicholson on tho Northeastern railroad, wired Governor Lowry lastnight as follows: Sheriff of Hancock county refused to allow

troops to arrest prize-tijditers without your filter.. Anmm n . f rlAt V n . wa--w1 . V. n State. I lrave with troops at oiice. This information astounded Governor Lowry. as he had, by public proclamation, called upon all sheriffs and other peace offi cers to arrest the parties, should they fight . in the State. The Governor says that he will at once take steps to extradite the par ties and endeavor to return them to Missis sippi to answer for the violation of the law. SulllTan Under the Influence of Liquor. New Orleans, July 9. John L. Sullivan, William Muldoon and Cleary are still in the city and are at their old quarters on Kainpart street. At 4 o'clock this afternoon. Sullivan and Cleary went to Spanish Fort in a carriage, and on their return stopped at the store of a friend of theirs on Esplanade street, where they indulged quite freely in liqnid refreshments. At about half-past 9 o'clock they reached tho rooms of the Young Men's Gymnastic Club, where they took a bath, after which they were invited into tho parlors, where Sullivan was presented with a large wreath of flowers representing a horse-shoe. Sullivan acknowledged the gift in a very brief address. Meantime a large crowd of people had gathered outside, and to avoid these, Sullivan was led to the rear door and let out, returning to his room at about 9:45 o'clock. He was then somewhat under the influence of liquor, and four policemen stood at the corner in case ho committed any overt act. Chief of Police Henness3' and John Fitzpatnck, who was refereo iu the tight, visited him, but Fitzpatrick only remained a few moments. It 13 said that Sullivan and Cleary will leave the city to-morrow morning on the steamship Hudson for New York, but whether Muldoon goes with them or not is as yet uncertain. Sullivan's f aco does not exhibit much of the bruises and cuts he received during the battle. t Mrs. Kilrain Says John Was Drugged. Baltimore, July 9. Mrs. Kilrain said tonight: "I cannot understand by the accounts of the tight by rounds where John (she calls her husband John), did any lighting at all. It was simply running away and falling down nearly all the time. John was not himself, he was a dummy in the ring, and only had sense enough to hold himself up. The fact is he was drugged, and I trmly believe 'it. The drug was not given to him on tho day of the tight, but a day or two before, 6o that it would work at the proper time. I do not mean to cast any discredit on Mr. Mitchell, bnt John was not in prirao condition. His training, I think, was too sudden. About Mr. Mitchell's acting so strangely and leaving him after the tight, I am at a loss to know what to think. I am sure that John will not be satisfied with the result of the fight unless he meets Sullivan again." Snlliran Challenged. London, July 10. Smith has challenged Sullivan to fight in Europe, for 1,000 a eide. FIGHTS IX INDIANA. Two Colored TugUhts Pound Each Other for Hljlt Itoul Nar 1'eru. Fpeeial to the Indianapolis Journal. PERU. Ind, July 9,-Elder William Pitts. of this city, and Charles Milton, of Marion, both noted prize-lighters, met in the ring five miles north of this city this afternoon, for $200 a sido and gate receipts, Marquis of Queensbury rules prevailed, with twoounce gloves. Both men have been training the past mouth, and are magnificent specimens of their race. Milton, however, weighs some thirty pounds heavier than Pitts. Eight navago rounds were fought fast and furiously, and both men were punished, Milton, however, being the worst battereu up of the two, both eyes closed, and his face terribly pounded. Milton failed to respond on time in the ninth round, and the light was awarded to Pitts. First blood in the becond, and first knockdown in the third round, were awarded to Pitts. Sports were in attendance from Indianapolis, Chicago, and Cincinnati. Over two hundred persons attended at $2 each. John Stone, of Portland, '. V., acted as referee. The light-weight championship between J. Collins, of Cincinnati, and P. Miller, of Indianapolis, which was to have occurred in tho same ring, did not occur owing to the non-arrival of Miller, one of the principals. This tight is for the State championship, gate receipts, and iX) a side, and will most likely occur a few weeks henco near this city. A Ilrutal One-Round Fight. Hammond, Ind., July P. Last night about one hundred and fifty sports from Chicago assembled in a barn near the State

line, each paying an admission of & to

witness a one-round fight between Billy Evans, of Cleveland, and Jack Stott, of Liverpool. Evans had whipped his man at the end of the round, but he jumped upon him and hit him while down, and the referee gave the right to Stott on a foul. The tight was a rough and tumble affair, in which science took a back scat. The stakes were $200 and the gate receipts. NOT WILLING TO ARBITRATE. The President of the Brazil Block Company Denies Secretary Johnson's Statements. Special to the Indianapolis Journal Brazil, Ind., July 9. President E. F. Lawrence, of the Brazil Block-coal Company, telegraphed from Chicago, to-day, an official denial of the report by Secretary Johnson, of the Board of State Charities, that he had consented to arbitrate differences with the striking miners. He says nothing has occurred to change his views on the price, which leaves nothing to arbitrate. At the regular semi-monthly relief meeting, to-day, 5,754 dependents and $462 in relief were reported, which is just 7 cents each. The relief fund decreased $100, while the number of dependents increased seventy-nine since Friday. Trade has become so disorganized it is doubtful now if the operators can afford to pay 70 cents, as first offered. It has been extensively circulated by Democratic papers that President McKeen, of the Vandalia. has proposed to the operators to transport their coal to Chicago at 90 cents a ton, instead of $1 as at present charged by the Chicago it Indiana Coal road, if the operators would pav the miners 10 cents more for mining. Mr. McKeen never made, any such proposition to the operators. He charges gl.lSio a ton via the Logan sport division over the Big Four. He has not announced a reduction, as required by the present laws. The rate might possibly be lowered from Brazil to Chicago over the Chicago &. Indiana Coal road. The present rate is $1 only, 10 cents of which is Eaid the Vandalia for switching. But this elongs to the railroad branch of this light, and there are now no indications that it will be done. ' rrobable End of the Streator Strike. Streator, I1L, July 9. Action was taken by the miners of Streator, yesterday, which will probably end the 6trike. The Coal nun company, which some time ago proposed tho plan of profit-sharing to its employes, has, since tho rejection of that scheme, si guitied its willingness to arbitrate. At a mass-meeting, yesterday, it was decided by an almost unanimous vote to approve of an . arbitration between the Coal Kuu Company and its employes. Streator is, by an almost unanimous vote, committed to an independent policy. After announcing the vote, the president stated that, in his opinion, arbitration would settle tho strike for all the miners of Streator. as well as for the Coal Kun Company. This company employs only 200 men, but as the issues involved are mainly the same as with other mines, the settlement for one will be practically the settlement for all. The board of arbitration will be composed of three men one to be chosen by the company, one by tho miners, and these two to choose the third. Their award must be made on or before Aug. 7, and, pending their decision, the Coal liun Company's miners will resume work at tho old prices. The TYindow-Glass-TTorkers. PlTTSiiURG, Pa., July 9.One hundred and nine delegates were present at the opening of the convention of the Win-dow-glass-workers' Association in this city today. James Campbell presided, and read his annual report on the condition of the glass trade. An affidavit from Barnard Gaffey was read, statiugthat while under the inlluenco of liquor, bypayment of money, and under direction of John Phillips and II. L. McGaw, ho answered questions, made statements and signed papers making serious accusations against President Campbell, charging hiin with fnrnishing foreign glass-makers with situations and transportation from England to Jeannette, Pa. He now declares all such statements false; had sold property in England to pay for passage to America, and knew of no money being sent to Eng land to pay passage of any glass-workers to this country. Seeking Employe for Carnegie's Mills. Pitts nunc. Pa., July 9. Carnegie, Phipps & Co. are taking steps to carry out the threat that unless the Homestead employes signed the firm's scale they would go into the open market and hire other workmen.

CmrrEWA Falls, Wis., July 9. A great commotion has been created here by the disappearance of L. J. Newald, a wellknown dealer in horso-fiesh, who, it is claimed, has a large sum of money in his possession which has been obtained in one way or another from business associates. It is claimed that he left July 5, but the few who became aware of his departure kept quiet, and it was not made public till to-day. The amount he took is variously estimated, and tome estimates are as high as $70,000. The wildest rumors are afloat. That he has disapppeared does not seem to bo doubted by the creditors. The money obtained appears to have been mostly borrowed, and wealthy men indorsed the notes. Of tho many who were mulcted, the Lumbermen's National Bank, Thomas Gaynor and H. W. Earley seem to be most deeply involved. The bank is reported to hold paper amounting to 88,000. CiaynoHs loss is placed at about $10,000 and Farly's about &.000. A Milwaukee bank is also reported to be among the creditors. Newald was widely known and did a good business in Illinois and other States.

A memorial was presented asking the President to suspend all cash mineral entry on school lands, until the State is prepared to contest tho claims of parties making the same. The committee of seven to visit Bismarck to assist in dividing the assets, liabilities and archives of the Territory between the two States, will probable start Thursday. This task is regarded as the most important devolving on the convention. The time necessary, therefore, cannot be forecast, but it certainly will be two weeks. It will be necessary to carefully schedule the property of the Territory and its cost, aud also make arrangements regarding the archives, library, etc. Positions on this commission were regarded as next in 4m portance after the presidency. Anything like regular business at the constitution meetiug has so far been impossible, owing to delays in the appointment of standing committees. It will be sometime yet before the proceedings of the convention will be of special importance. The functions of the convention are so limited by the enabling act that many fruitful questions will not be considered. Only three or four things are presented by Congress for the convention to do, such as the change of name and boundary from those fixed by the convention of 1883, and to make the necessary alterations in the schedule providing for submission. Nevertheless, many delegates are determined to present various other questions, and it is not unlikely that the convention may have warm times. The Prohibitionists have three-fifths of the delegates. Women suffrage probably has the majority of the Farmers' Alliance, and the labor organizations are likely to muster two-fifths, but no manifestation of olitical division is yet observed, except tepublicans and Democrats stand fifty-one ;o twenty-four, as shown by tho caucus of joth parties. Third-party probabilities of any sort are not threatening. Prohibition is already recognized in the Constitution of 1885, by a provision voted on separately, so that particular faction has no quarrel. The anti-monopoly features of the document amply satisfy the grangers. The State is fortunate in having everybody satisfied, and there is little question ot the overwhelming adoption of the Constitution in October. Fighting the Formation of Trusts. Olympia, W. T., July 9. It made the delegates open their eyes here after President lloyt had called the constitutional convention to order this afternoon, at 2 o'clock, and announced his committees. The voluminous report of the committee on rules had been read and acted upon, and a fight over the election of a journal clerk had been decided on the third ballot, when John Rinnear. of Seattle, introauced a resolution to prevent tion of trusts and the formacombinations, as among and growing which he characterized the worst of existing evils of the dav. and unless checked are lia ble to retard the progress of a new State. His resolution called forth a reference to a special committee, which is instructed to report favorably a clause for the Constitution, prohibiting any incorporated company from contracting any agreement with any other corporation, the purpose of which would be to establish the price on any article of commerce, the penalty to be the forfeiture of their property and franchise. This resolution was met with slight filibustering, but eventually went to the corporation committees of which Itinnear is chairman. Many of the delegates oppose the idea of instructing the committee at all, but that is probably a pretext under which to cloak their opposition in tbe service of corporations. Sullivan, of Tacoma, attempted to block the motion of reference of Judge Henry, of Olympia, by raising a point of order, and Griffith, of Spokane Falls, called for a yea and nay vote. The motion tpr reference was carried by a vote 43 to 23. Montana's Preamble and Constitution. Hklexa, Mont, July 9. The convention assembled at 10 o'clock to-day. The following resolution was offered by II. Horsefield, as a preamble to the Constitution: "We, the people of Montana, grateful to Almighty God for our own freedom, in order to secure its blessings and a more independent and perfect government, establish justice, insure tranquillity, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessing of liberty to ourselves and onr posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the Stato of Montana." Delegate Joy offered the following: "We, the people of the State of Montana, grateful to Almighty God for affording us an opIortunity so to do, herebj ordain and estabish this Constitution." Both were referred to tho committee on preamble. Amotion for the appointment of an additional committee on irrigation, was refered to the committee on agriculture. Member Godder, from Yellowstone, offered a resolution in illation to county officers, that they may hold office and draw salarv until the end of tLo term for which they were elected, .ind that tbc:r bond bo in lull force for the san'O period. The resolution was properly inferred. This is an important Question. a& the terms of the nriMnt officers do not expire till 18HO. A. resolution was introduced by member Watfion in regara to lruta and combinations that may raise or control tho prices of necessaries of life, that laws bo enacted that may keep 'ihese trusts or combinations under fctatc control. North Dakota Committees. Bismakck. N. 13.. July v. I He conven tion was not in session to-day. The Demo crats met in caucus and prepared their fil.He. throughaconiraittee submitted to them. TLo President will cive them more than they asked for. .This plan of assigning tbe com mittees eases the Democrats, and estab lishes almost absolute harmony in that wing of the convention. 1 hey will prob ably be given three or four chairm-uships and their fnll quota on twenty-tliree com mittees. The farmers are inclined to claim the committees on corporations, revenue and taxation, school lands. elective franchises, executive department and temperance. They have no inclination to control the committee on judiciary de partment or the legislative department be yond a fair representation on uotn committees, and no avowed enemies on either. They will probably claim the committee on county ana townsnip organization. Wyoming: KlecU a Republican Delegation. Ciikykxxk, "Vyo., July 9. Wyoming is moving on toward statehood.
