sixninons. When referee Alex. Brewster awarded the battle to Fitzsimuions. Jimmy Carroll jumped at his protege and kissed him time and again. Jack Dempsey was badly punished. A swollen lace, cut lips and nose, and a bad mark or two on bit body were plainly visible. Fitzsimxnons was not scratched. The Australian won in a walk. The tight lasted 4'J minutes.

A prominent New Orleans politician won $10,000 on the fight. GOSSIP OF TLIE "SPORTS." The Fight Witnessed by 4,800 Persons What Leading Pugilist Say. New Orleans, Jan. 14. Forty-five hundred enthusiastic spectators saw ono of the greatest fights of the day to-night at the Olympio Club in New Orleans, under the most auspicious circumstances. The ring arrangements were the most perfect ever witnessed at a fight, and the crowd included some of the most noted people in pugilistio history. As early as 6 o'clock crowds began to congregate) at the Olympio Club, and from that time on to the moment of the battle the multitude increased, nntil there was a crowd swarming within and without the club. Cabs, carriages and tally-hos dashed np to the club doors and deposited their loads, and at the two entrances of the club, on Charles and Koyal streets, there was a jam and a rush up to 9 o'clock. The sports and strangers in town bad congregated at the St, Charles and Koyal hotels and elsewhere, and when dark set in they started for the ring-side, singly and in pairs and crowds, on foot and in street cars and other vehicles. The likelihood of interference on the part of the authorities was dissipated early today, and it became known that if there was to be any interference it would be after the fight was over. Congregated around the ring-side and in the corners of the seconds were the notables of the ring, Jimmy CarToll. Jack McAuliffe. Hilly Meyer, Corbett, Jake Kilrain, Billy Mtildoon, Tommy Warren, Mike Clearj', Billy Edwards and Arthur Chambers, ex-light-weight champion; Mike Conley, the Ithica giant; Kd Smith. the Denver heavy-weight; Andy Bowen, Prof, Donaldson, the St. Joe Kid, Jimmy Carroll, the Brooklyn middle-weigh, and several others. Besides those era some of the most noted sporting authorities in the country. Among these were Macon, Win. K. Harding. Bantam Fitzgerald, Hackett. Hodgins and others. Every prominent newspaper in the United States was represented at the ring-side. The ring arrangements are superb, the ropes and posts being padded and the tloor being river sand solidly packed. There was not one person present who was unable to see every movement of the two principals. The crowd before the tight was eager, but good-natured, and though nearly everybody was ready to express an opinion, very few of the sporting element backed their opinion with money. There were present this evening four thousand people, and the receipts of the fight were about $:;0,000, out of which the club gave $12,000 for the purse and spent $3,000 for expenses. Dempsey before the Light was the favorite. Last night, after his appearance, the sentiment veered around

to Fitzsimmons, but when the latter ar

rived to-day and was found to be thin and wan. the betting changed and again became Dempsey at 4 to R. There was talk of un fairness, but it is believed the battle was perfectly fair, Mr. Alex. Brewster, the referee, being regarded as a thoroughly honest and npright man. The Fitzsimmons people were extremely anxious before the right began, as was to bo expected, it having been currently reported that "Fitz" came to New Orleans over weight. At 8 o'clock, in an ante-room of the Olympic Club, faithful friends were engaged in the task of reducing the New Zealander. Jimmy Carroll told an Associated .Press reporter ju9t before this that his xuan was two pounds under, but two close friends and the writer were present when it was admitted that the Australian tipped the scales two pounds over. Willing people were beside him, and Fitzsimmons was stripped stark naked and put on a lounge, with attendants patting him to work otf the superfluous flesh. This news was not circulated among the crowd, which remained oblivious of the condition of the man. WHAT rCGlLISTS SAY. ' Jake Kilrain said; Fitzsimmons is truly a wonder. He is as clever as they make 'em, and his hitting, power is immense. There never was a middleweight like bim. Talk about bis legs, why there is not a weak spot in him. . William Muldoon, the wrestler, before the fight said; T have my money on what my judgment tells me is the best man that is, on Fitzsimmons. My sympathy is ail with Dempsey." After the tight, Mnldoon said: "I never m dreamed be was such a man. lie is a whirlwind, a terrific hitter, a two-handed tighter and a great general. I never saw as fair a fighter in my life, lie should have been awarded the light two rounds before. The referee is a fair man. if he bad not been scrupulously careful he could have awarded the fight a round at least, sooner. It is a great pity that Fitzsimmons did not win in ten rounds, as there was a great deal of money up on his doing so." Billy Meyer said be was amazed at Fitzsiinmons's cleverness, although he had put bis money on bim. He was iu it all the time and was as fresh as a lark when he finished. Alf Kennedy. Myer's backer, said Dempsey was never in it with the New Zealauder. Major McCoughlin. president of the California Athletio Club, said: "Ever since I saw Fitzsimmons tight in 'Frisco with McCarthy I have been certain he could lick Dempsey. My only surprise is that he did not do it in fewer rounds." t Doc Masterson. of Denver, said Fitzsimmons was the wonderof the middle-weights. He had money bet that he would do Dempsey np in ten rounds. i Macon, the sporting authority, said be felt terribly disappointed. He had been a Dempsey man, but after the second round saw Jack was not in it. Bantam.ithe Southern sporting authority, who came out boldly when the match was made and predicted that Fitzsimmons would win, was naturally very happy. He said very few heavy-weights could whip Fitesimmons. When the fight was over Fitzsimmons was as fnll of fun as a colt. He sparred with Carroll, and tapped him on the noso playfully. He spoke highly of Dempsey as a good game tighter. Jimmy Carroll also had a good word for the fight Dempsey made. Thilly' one of Sullivan's backers in the Sulli van-Kilrain fight said: "I lost heavily on Dempsey. but 1 think as much of him now as lever did. 1 will bet $5,000 on him to-morrow against La Blanche. He was out-classed to-night. Fitzsimmons is a wonder, and can whip a dozen heavyweights I know. Dempsey was as good as ever he was, but could not reach his man. 1 bad no idea Fitzsimmons was as good as he is. He can whip them all." Billy Edwards said: "Fitzsimmons is the cleverest middle-weight I ever saw. . Jack was not in it. Jack fought gamely, and was well handled, but he was no match for the long Australian." Tommy Warren said: "I lost money on Dempsey, and am willing to lose it again against auy other man but Fitzsimmons. Jack was splendidly seconded, and had a shade the best of it all through, but be was outclassed. I don't know ot any middle-weight in the world that can go against Fitzsimmon Jimmy Carroll, of Brooklyn, t might give bim a flood tight, but perhaps he is too heavy, 'itzsimmons is a sure-enough wonder." Frank Stevenson. Kilrain's backer, said: "Dempsey made a game fight and was at his best. Fitzsimmons was clearly the best man and overmatched Jack. Fitz6imxnons is the cleverest man of his class and the best fighter I ever saw. I do not know any one that can whip him." ORDERED TO STRIKE. Station Agents and Telegraphers of the St. Paul Road Will Qalt on Friday. Chicago. Jan. 14. As a result of the refusal of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St, Paul railway to accede to the demand of the station agents and railway telegraphers on the lines of that system, a strike has been determined upon, to begin Friday. Grand Chief Thurston, of the International Order of Railway Telegraphers, has sent out an order to every station agent and operator.in the employ of the road to send in bis resignation, to a take effect Friday, Jan. 16. at 7 a. M. This course was taken by the men in order to protect their bondsmen, who would have been liable for resulting damages had there been a strike without previous notice being given. There are altogether 450 who will go out. Chief Thurston says: "We are in splendid condition, and, if necessary, can support these men for a year. Station agents and operators all over the country are rallying to support the movement, and we shall have ample funds to carry the fight through to a successful termination. I do not suppose our men quitting will interfere with the running of trains, but the trains will have nothing to carry. Nearly all the operators at way stations act as agents. Now, when they quit, who will receive freight or sell tickets? The company cannot let incompetent men do that work." Only four men in the Chicago otlice are affected by the decision of the telegraphers' order. At the general oflices of the company the officials said the men were at work as usual all over the system, and that no trouble was anticipated.' Nickel-Plate Telegraphers Raised Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Fort Wayne, Ind., Jan. 14. Several weeks since the telegraph operators employed on the Nickel-plate road between Chicago and Cleveland, signed a petition asking for an increase of salaries all round for men in the telegraph service. The petition was sent to General Manager Williams, at Cleveland, and presented by a committee of men from each division. General Manager Williams promised to take the matter under consideration. The result of the matter is that the men were to-day notified that hereafter they will receive an advauce of $5 per month all round. The employes are well satisfied with the raise. The trainmen received an advance some weeks since. Chicago Stoneyards Tied Up. Chicago, Jan. 14. The stoneyards of the city are tied op completely. The Stonecutters' Union has called out all the foremen and apprentices in response to the lockout of the men which the contractors inaugurated Monday. The arbitration committers of the contracted' association and the union held a meetjug and talked tho situation over, but arrived at no conclusion. The conference developed the fact that tho contractors were particularly anxious that the union should bind itself to work, for none but onion men. The strik ers claim to have assurances of support from stone-cutters' unions all over the Lnued States, and say they are prepared for a long siege. Strikers Without Funds. London, Jan. 14. Dispatches from Glas gow confirm the report that the Scotch strikers have no further resources, and that they are bound to submit to the companies in a short time. It is announced that the authorities are taking evidence to see whether it is possible to prosecute John Hums, the labor agitator, for intimidation. Returned to Work. Birmingham. Ala., Jan. 14. Four thousand miners at the Pratt and the Walker mines have decided to return to work. Eight hundred went to work at Carbon Hill to-day. This ends the strike. The men came back on the old terms.

It was also decided their chiefs would attemnt to controltheiri yourig men. and, failing in this, they would themselves arrest tbose who refused to act as good Indians, and turn them over to the agent. General Miles was pleased with the friendly disposition manifested by the chiefs, and proposed to allow them several days in which to redeem their promises. As an evidence of bis good will the General has sent to the hostiles several thousand pounds of flour and several hundred pounds of coffee and sugar. The General also considered with them several of the important contracts which the Indians claim havo been violated and guaranteed that in future those contracts would be complied with to the letter. Tho chiefs were equally pleased with the kindly treatment they had received at the hands of the General and left immediately for camp. Gen. Miles demanded the surrender of the slayers of Lieutenant Casey, and the chief promised to accede to the demand. At midnight everything is quiet in the hostile Indian camp, though scouts say some of the young bucks are indulging in the ghost dance. POSITION OP THE TROOPS.

' He Says Certain White Men Were Responsible for the Wounded Knee Manacre. New York. Jan. 14. The following message from Father Craft was received from Pine Ridge, S. D.t to-day: Mr. Austin E. Ford, Eli:orof tbe New Ycrk Freeman's Journal: My wound feels considerably better and I may reeover. Am very hopeful. I authorize you to contradict for me in roy name, through the pres. tbe reports in circulation that blame the army for the sad tragedy at Wounded Knee creek. The reports do grave Injustice to oar soldiers, and are Instigated by tho adverse to an honorable settlement of the present trouble and "hostile to the decree of every true friend of the Indian, that they be permanently transferred from tho charge of the Indian Bureau to the War Department. It is only by such transfer that the Indians can expect Junt treatment. The whole trouble originated through, certain whites, who had gone about most industriously and misrepresented tbe army and its movements upon all the agencies. The Indians were. In consequence, alarmed and suspicious. They bad been led to believe that the true aim of the military was their extermination. The troops acted with the greatest kindness .and prudence. In the Wounded Knee tight the Indians tired first. The troops tired only when compelled to. I was between both, saw all. and know from an absolute knowledge of the whole affair whereof I say. Tbe Indians state the case just as I do. I have every proof at hand and when able will forward full statement and documentary evidence. Rev. Fuancu. M. J. Craft. INSTRUCTIONS TO AGENT TIERCE.
