THE GREAT FIGHT TO-NIGHT.

THE DEMPSEY-FITZSIMMONS MILL AT NEW ORLEANS.

Eyes of the Sporting World the Two Great Middle Weights and the Betting In Favor of Dempsey.

NEW ORLEANS, January 14.—The great international fight for the middle-weight championship of the world between Fitzsimmons, of New Zealand,, and Jack Dempsey, the champion middle-weight pugilist of America, and which has attracted the attention of pugilists every quarter of the globe, for weeks past, takes place here to-night under the auspices of the Olympic Club. The contest is to a finish, Marquis of Queensbury rules for a purse of twelve thousand dollars, of which the winner is to receive eleven thousand and the loser one thousand. Five ounce gloves will be worn. Both men are to weigh in before the call of time at the ring side, and neither one by the articles of agreement is to weigh over orabove 154 pounds. Dempsey, who is better known as the

Nonpareil

cday" Mated by the

stlc senate and McHugh given

the seat. The democratic members of the committee recommended the seating of McHugh, holding that a careful canvass of the protested ballots shows that McHugh had a fair plurality of two over Osborn. The minority report was long and held that after allowing to McHugh and Osborn all the protested ballots which could be fairly or reasonably awarded to them, Osborn still has a plurality of six at the least. There were 108 protested ballots, of which forth-one [sic] were rejected by the committee. Fifty-two of them were counted by the majority of the committee for McHugh and fifteen for Osborn. In the house Lindemuth offered a resolution for a special committee to investigate the murder at the Richmond insane hospital whereupon Beasley, of Sullivan, who seems to be the democratic leader on the floor, moved to lay on the table saying the regular committee would investigate. The motion prevailed by a strict party vote.

Annual Meeting of the League and Association To-Day. NEW YORK, January 14—The interest In base ball matters centers to-day around the Fifth Avenue hotel in two upper rooms of which the annual business meetings of the league and association are being held. The report adopted at the meeting of the committees a few days ago will be submitted to both bodies. Both President W. Thurman, of the American Association, and A. G. Spald ing, of the league, have been working diligently to effect a settlement of all the outstanding matters in dispute. Thurman has succeeded in getting Syracuse out of the way, but, for the time being, he has failed in his effort to induce Toledo to withdraw from the association circuit. It is a question whether the To-

The cross examina-

tion was very severe, being conducted by Kelly- The plaintiff question....Louis, whether .........., as trainer.

No expense has been spared by the Olympic Club to make the battle the best managed affair of the kind ever known in the annals of pugilism.

The club has rearranged its amphitheater at an expense of $6,000. The general admission will be $10 and $100 for the private boxes containing six seats. Only 100 boxes have been constructed. The total capacity of the arena is a trifle over 4,000. Every ticket has been sold and the pasteboards are at a premium. The mill has attracted even more interest that that between Sullivan and Kilrain, and over 500 sports from the leading cities of the country, from Boston to California, are on the ground. Both men are in splendid form, but the betting favors the Nonpareil. The purse is the largest ever fought for in any country and the event will be the greatest that has ever taken place between middle weights. In the matter of height and reach Dempsey has clearly the worst of it as Fitzsimmons, who stands six feet one, is a raw-boned slugger, as strong as an ox, and with a tremendous reach. Dempsey, however, is nimble on bis feet and is a fighter of good judgment, and these are important features. He is, moreover, a clever sparrer, but whether this will avail against the powerful blows, and the tricky methods for which the New Zealander is famous, remains to be seen. If Dempsey is wise he will play slow with the idea of gradually weakening his man and get him in shape where a couple of good upper cuts with the left and a slugging body blow on the return with the right would land him on his back. Fitzsimmons, however, is tolerably familiar by reputation with his opponent's tactics and he will probably start in with his whirlwind act in the expectation of giving Dempsey a knock out in the second or third round. To look at him, few would take the Australian to be a fighter he is red haired, freckled, knock-kneed and generally ungainly. Dempsey, on the other hand, is solidly built and has superior formation as a fighter. The probabilities are that unless Fitzsimmons sends him to grass before the end of the fifth round, that Dempsey will have the best of the battle or the affair will end in a draw, for if the American can stand up under five rounds of whirlwind bullfighting he will be good for a fight of indefinite length.

people are anxious to be bled by

the association for their resignation. Should Mr. Thurman succeed in getting Toledo and Rochester out of the way he

Fitzsimmon's friends are loud in their vaunts of his prowess, but when more or less money is offered them on Dempsey, at odds ranging from $5 to $4 and $10 to

$9,

they are not prone to back their judgment. Police interference is now considered out of the question and the management is jubilant over the undoubted success of the most important event in two years in fistic circle.

NAMES.

SltoraS TnuUtidn of Cognomtiw BorM br Bed Men. Many suppose that such names as ••Sitting Bull," •Hole-in-the-Day," etc., are cognomens of convenience given the Indians by army officers, po3t traders and other white men having dwellings with them.

This is not the case. The fantastic names are literal translations of the real names of the Indians. The United States Bureau of Ethnology has devoted a great deal of attention to the subject of nomenclature among the aborigines, with very unsatisfactory results.

This much'is established: The Indian boy has no name. He is a plain Indian boy until he becomes a buck or a warrior. '1 hen he is christened, not tormally. but by general consent.

A name is given him that may indicate physical excellence, a physical peculiarity, prowess in war or the chase, in making a treaty with a tribe of Indians it is neoessary to seoure the signature of every male member, of the tribe. aiPfUodln the ^8^the government, offer very curious reading. The last volume published of the session sets of the United States Congress contains in full certain treaties as to reservation boundaries made with the Assinlboine. Black Feet, Gros Ventre, Piegan, Blood and River Crow Indians.

In each instance the name of the Indian and the translation Is written out, followed by -'his mark1' and a seal. For instance, the Assiniboine ohief, We-oha-je-tonka, is Big Star.

A casual glanoe over the columns of signatures will give some idea of the fantastic diversity of Indian names There is apreponaeranoe of suohns^nes as Big Bear, Iron Horn Bull, Fast Horse, Little Bull, Big Bull, Wolf Panther, Mountain Lion.

Physical peculiarities are indicated by such names as "llie Thigh," ••Poor Shoulder Biade," "Walks Like ft Boy," "Hawk Tracks," "Wrinkle Face,'' "Red All Over," "Throat of Bull," "LeftHand," "Squint Eyes," ••One Eye," "NoEyes," "Iron Voice," ••Woman's Hip."

Confirmed habits and disposition may perhaps be indicated by such namea as "Shaved Clean," "Dirty Ear,1' "StrikesHis Breast," "Steals Tobaoco," "Beats His Wife," "Lying White Man." "Kicking Woman," "Cold Feet," ••Chief Coward." "Steal a Gun at Night*' "Man Who Steals Woman." "Man Loves Tobacco."

Within a space taken up by fifteen names is found in a Blaokfeei# treaty, warriors bold answering to the improbable combination of "Stand Him Off," 'Wets His Mouth," 'Whisky," 'Hard Looking Man."-and "Bad Hat."

Exploits and physical prowess are perpetuated in the names of the braves, and glancing over the list at random tho eye is struok by such designations as "Big Brave," "Strangled the Wolf,'* "Chief on the Pra-i-rie," "Chief All Over," "Good Stabbor," "Ready to Shoot," "Man Who Don't Run." "Fight the.Bear," "Take It Alive," and "Many Wounds."

Some of the names bestowed carry with them contempt and deriaion. Of such are "StayB in Camp," "Grandmother," "Temporarily Married," "Lots of Sleep," "Cat Gifts," "Squaw Beater," "Takes Back Gift^" "Yellow Liver," "Scared Out."

Some idea of the worldly possessions of certain Indians is carried with such names as "Twelve Blankets," "Heavy Gun," "Two Gun*" ••Many Horses," "Plentyto Eat," and ••Tall Hat,"

The variety ot names indicating fancied resemblances in appearances, manners or voice to birds and animals swells tho strange list to such an excent as to permit only of passing mention.

A War Incident.

Shortly after dinner the band of the Union troops turned up their instruments and began playing some of the national airs, which were received with hearty applause by the boys hi blue and sepulchral groans from the boys in gray. The Johnny Rebs, not to be outdone, also c&llod out their band, which played the melodies so dear to the southerner, and which were received with acclamations of joy on one side and shouts of derision on the other. Finally the Union leader, placing his cornet to his lips, began playing the familiar strains of "Home, Sweet Home»n in which he was speedily joined by the other members of his band. This was too much for the boys in gray. They might fight to the hitter end with the the stream on political when it same to the home tiirele, of wife and children awaiting their return from war, they were brothers with the boys in blue, and soon the Confederate band Joined In with|that of the Union forces and for tho time all thought of hate and war was forgotten.

INGALLS HAS THE FLOOR

Cyclone Speaks on Coinage Bill.

WASHINGTON, January 14.—In the senate immediately after the journal was read Ingalls began to speak. He said two portentous things threaten the existence of our republic. The first is an ignorant, debased, degraded and unsophisticated suffrage intimidated and suppressed at the south, uneducated and un elevated in the north. The decalogue and golden rule have no part in politics. The election bill which has been under consideration is only a partial and imperfect remedy for the evils it seeks to rectify. Violence is bad, but fraud is no better. The second evil which threatens the security if it does not endanger the existence of our country is the tyranny of combined, concentrated, centralized conscienceless and incorporated capital, and the people are considering this great problem now. They are shocked at the injustice of modern society, but they already realize that the ballot is not a panacea for redress of the social inequalities. One hundred, years ago these social distinctions did not exist. Wealth was uniformally diffused. But modern civilization had subjugated the desert and abolished the frontier, our machinery has multiplied so rapidly that the engines of Massachusetts alone represent the labor of one hundred million men. We manufacture one fourth of the world's product The result of an automatic government have been apparently successful. Notwithstanding the fact that our aggregate wealth would reach $100,000,000,000, statistics show that over one million men tramp over the streets and highways daily seeking for labor and bread. This is truly a cause for serious apprehension. Our citizens are not anarchists or communists, but the so-called speculators have driven them to desperation. He would read a startling table showing that two hundred persons were worth $20,000, 000,000, four hundred worth $40,000,000 each, one thousand were worth $5,000,000 each, twenty thousand were worth 12,000,000 each, six thousand are worth $1,000,000 each. 15000 were worth $500,000 each in other words 310,000 persons were worth $36,250,000,000 or more than onehalf the accorded wealth of this country. This was not only alarming, but appalling. Labor and capital are to-day in hostile camp strikes, lockouts and suspensions multiply and increased opposition becomes malevolent and vindictive. The loss last year by interrupted railway traffic alone and destruction of perishable commodities was over $300,000,000. This cannot last long. Some day unrelenting justice will demand retribution and expiation. The demonetization of silver in 1873 was procured by fraud, but was the result of a deliberate plan by speculators to accomplish this end. It was one of phenome nal and omalies legislation. Members of congress and the president must have been hypnotized. This demonetization changed our whole financial system and to a certain extent the fiscal methods of the entire world.

This was not only alarming, ing. Labor and capital

There

is not a state west of the Alle-

ehenies or south of the Ohio river but would adopt free coinage by an overwhelming majority. The image and superscription of Caesar, after a lapse of twenty centuries was still money and the people demand that the United States government place their superscription upon enough gold, silver or paper to supply the requirements of business and relieve the distress of labor.

Jones, of Nevada, followed, also in favor of free coinage. Aldrich offered an amendment to Stewart's amendment that gold or silver bullion be coined at an expense of 1/2 of 1 per cent. to the depositor. German offered an amendment providing that the unit value of a dollar shall be 25 5-10 grains gold and 12 grains silver. All metal mined in the United Sates shall be coined free and certificates issued therefore when demanded. Foreign metals shall be subject to mint charges.

It is understood a vote will be had before adjournment. The friends of free coinage entertain no doubt of the passage of the bill with the free coinage amendment. _____

THE HOUSE TO-DAY.

The World's Fair Matter Taken up and Favorably Reported. WASHINGTON, January 14.—(In the house.) The house went into a committee of the whole immediately after the reading of the journal and resumed consideration of the army bill.

After a discussion of some length the committee rose and reported the bill favorably to the house and it was passed by a viva voce vote.

The house committee, which investigated the World's Fair, completed its report to-day and will present it to-mor-row. It is understood they will indicate that while the condition of affairs is unsatisfactory, when the investigation was made, has since improved. It will reccomend some additional legislation this session.
