Just before Cal McCarthy and Chappie Moran left for their training quarters at Johnstown, under the care of Jack MiMasters, on Monday night, the party dropped into John Kelly's, at Sixth avenue and Thirty-first street. The presence of the champion was quickly made known about the premises, and the rumor 'was not long in reaching the ears of another champion who was upstairs in one of the parlors. The other was John L. Sullivan, who, as soon as he heard that Cal and Chappie were below, senta waiter down stairs to say that the champion of champions would be pleased to t meet the little champions. McCarthy and ' Moran were both pleased to meet John L, and they went upstairs. Sullivan grasped each by a hand, and said they looked like fine fellows. He wished them luck in all undertakings. As the trio stood with four hands clasped, bright minded Joe Early, who was standing by, said, pointing to Sullivan and Moran: "Tint's a perfect picture. In it we hare the best of the biggest and the bantams." Cal McCarthy interested John L. by his Clever talk. At two or three of Cal's sharp re joinders Sullivan smiled quite loudly, slapped Cal on the shoulderand remarked. "You're a bright boj, you are." A little latter McCarthy, who possesses the fighter's most essential at tribute, confidence, said to the big fellow: Well, I must go away now to get ready for Dixon. I'm going to whip him, mark my words." "Lick him," rejoined John L., who by this time showed that he was "stuck on" the Jersey City boy: "Of course you'll lick him, I know that. And I tell yon, you lick the little coon and Ell lick the big one." A BIG PURSE OFFERED. Z.nke Short Gnarnnteca n $30,000 Ferae for Snlllvnn iind Jnckson. JTevtYoek, January H.

The Great Pitcher Explains Why H Signed With Boston. A dispatch from Chicago says: "Clatkson, Ganzel, Radbonrne, Daily, Morrill and Rich ardson came to town yesterday on their way to the east from the Slope ClarKson, in an inter View, said -he had signed a League contract for cood business icasons, and that ho had nothing to regret. He admitted that he bad done some work for the Boston Iieague managers during his stay in California, and seemed to take con siderable pride in his success in signing Ganzel and Catcher Hardie. "Clarkson says the Brotherhood players treated him rather shabby in San Francisco, but this was no more than he expected. He de clares that half of the Brotherhood players are only looking for a good excuse to rejoin the League, and ventured the prophecy that the Brotherhood would not send a team to the field. Bennett, the great catcher, he says, will surely sign with the Boston League team." A Surprising Statement. Tim Keefe made a rather surprising state ment yesterday. It was to the effect that all of the Brotherhood players who signed the first contracts of the new League would receive no benefits under the guarantee clause in the rules of the organization. Tim explains this by say ing: "When Ward and I. as well as many more of the players, signed contracts there was no such thing as a cuarantee fund. So that not withstanding tbe'fact that the guarantee plan was decided upon after that, w e can receive no benefits from it. I have no doubt, however, that the men who 'wish it can sign new con tracts. In fact, I am Euro that all of the old contracts will be called in and the new ones issued in their place." This is likely to cause no little complication. r-Jf. r. Sun. Bnrnle Again In High Feather. ISFECIAL TELEGUAM TO THE DISFATCIT.f Baltimore, January It Manager Barme returned from New York to-day, and is in high glee over the prospect of the Atlantic Associa tion.

Mack shortstop, and Tate and Kerins will do some of the catch ing.

Hew DIHlcnUIcs Thrown In It Way Every Dor Almost. Chief Brown, of the Department of Pub lic Safety, did not rest well last night He had a continuous nightmare oi a centipedal telephone climbing all over him with a a interrogation point at one end and a re porter at the other to know what had been done with regard to the fire engine test. He refused to answer, and taming over on the other side, endeavored to get to sleep by counting the sheep going over a fence, or some other popular inducement to som nolency, but when he got to the nine hun dred and ninety-fifth sheep, the telephone bell wonld again apprise him that a lamb wanted some information on the test. From all the parties seen on the subject, Chief Brown refusing to speak, it would ap pear as if the test would never come off. The Allegheny end of the string wants all the concessions, even asking that the test be limited to second-class engines, of which there is a new one in Allegheny while the latest accession in that class to the Pitts burg department is 14 years old. Every concession made was on the side of Pitts burg, and although the request to have the Exposition grounds sodded and carpeted, with a cement cistern to draw water from, and a gold-mounted, plnsh-lmed suction hose, was objected to almost every other reasonable demand was met. From conversation let drop by people in terested it is more than probable the test, if it comes oil at all, will occur next Wednes day, and if not then it will probably never take place. Chief Brown is heartily sick of the whole matter, and says if there is any test to be made he wants it done as soon as possible, as he does not wish to be pestered with per sonal questions or communications on the subject any longer.

At Erie four Polish children were suffo cated in a fire caused by a falling pipe. The sister of a murdered man claims that her name was falsely used to secure a pardon for the murdreer. A clairvoyant has beed added to the other features of the Brown forgery case. rSFECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. I Ebie, PA., January 14. The Pollock suburb of the city is in a state of excite ment to-night over a holocaust which was particularly distressing in its details. Mr. and Mrs. Earl Bogalinski went out to make a "call and leit their four little children in a room in the company of a brother of the woman, who, it is said, was under the in fluence of liquor. About an hour after ward smoke was seen escaping irom the house, and when the inebriated Pole came staggering out and fell unconscious in the yard, neighbors rushed in. The stifling smoke of smoldering feath ers and bedclothes drove the people back. Chief Moser, of the fire department was the first to rush in aud soon appeared with two lifeless children in his arms. Two more children were carried out a few seconds later, and then Mrs. Mary Lowinki, the owner of the house. The old woman was almost dead, but has recovered con sciousness. The children were either dead when carried out or died shortly alter. They were Mary, aged 5 years and 6 months; Charlie, aged 4; Selene, aged 3, and Annie, aged 1 year'and 2 months. The parents appeared on the scene, and became frenzied with grief. A more distressing scene was never witnessed in Erie. The parents seized the lifeless 'bodies of their children, kissed tbem, breathed into their mouths and appealed to God to give them back their children. Stout hearted men wept bitterly, and the air was filled with shrieks and groans. Investigation shows that the inebriated uncle of the children had laid his 1 ighted pipe on the bed and made a funeral pyre for his sister's children. But tor the pres ence of the Polish priest the grief-crazed Sarents would have done themselves bodily arm. The bodies of the children were not discolored and they mnst have died easily. Charitable and sympathizing people will provide a proper burial for the little ones. A MYSTERIOUS LETTER Introduced by the Defense in the Mervlne Collins Case. rSPXCTAI. TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH. I McConnellsbukg, Pa., January 14. The Mervine case came np for trial this morning before Judge McClain. The case so far has been fought with great ability on both sides. The Commonwealth have proved the intent to kill, the cutting, the extent of the wounds, and the condition of the defendant on the night previous to the trouble. So far the detense Has not shown what will be their line of defense, with the exception of a letter read while Officer Sliver was on the staud. Hon. John M. Reynolds handed the letter to him, ask ing him if he did not write this to Mervine, advising him to break jail, and whether he was not awaiting under the shadows of the jail wall for Mervine to scale the walls. This was denied by Sliver, by saying he did not know of snch a letter, nor had he ever written it, nor seen it until it w'as handed to him by the attorney. The little court house has been crowded all day. The prisoner, who is represented by Hon. John M. Reynolds and Captain Skinner, is about the coolest person in the room. The Com monwealth is being looked alter by District Attorney Pennell and Hon. R. C. Mc Hamara". The case will hardly reach the jury before to-morrow afternoon. MOEE A MYSTERY THAN ETEE. A Clairvoyant Clnlms lo Know All About tho Brown Forgeries. rSPXrtAL TXLKOKAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Toledo, O.. January 14. The Brown forgeries, in which Joseph Lamb, of this city, figures as the man who negotiated the $5,000 note and attempted to dispose of or collect the 525,000 one, continues to form the principal topic for discussion on the streets here. There are those who hold Lamb is not criminally implicated, and that he did not know the notes were spurious when he undertook to negotiate them. This view of the matter is regarded generally as far fetched. It seems that a woman bv the name of Devere, who is a clairvoyant and fortune teller, is at the bottom of the mystery.

The reports stated concerning the application for a pardon that a sister of the murdered man had written a letter, which was mainly the instrument which se cured the pardon, as follows: "L am will ing to say that the blame in this matter was not altogether on the one side, and I now feel that Mr. McLister has, under all the circumstances, been sufficiently pun ished, and I therefore join in the request for his pardon. My relations with my brother Joseph were most affectionate, and yet I feel the years already served by Mr. McLis ter in the penitentiary are all that jnstice requires, and that no one will be harmed by his release." Mary 'Welsh, the only sister of the de ceased, lives here. She denied emphatically to-day that she ever made an effort, by either letter or otherwise, for McLister' release, and did not know an effort was made to secure his liberty. She says he has not been sufficiently punished, and denounces the letter attributed to her as a forgery. A FEAUDUfiBXT INSPECTOR Attempts to Effect an Entrance Into the Toledo Postofllce.

That is What the Doctors BelieTe of the Trenton Tragedy. SCRATCHES UPWARD ON THE FACE That Might Dave Been Made by a Small, Delicate Hand. THE TICTIM'S MOTHER TESTIFIES. Good Evidence That a Burglary Might Hare Beea Committed. There was puzzling and contradictory tes timony in the Trenton tragedy inquest yes terday. Chloroform is what the doctors believe killed Mrs. Kniffin. IBPBCIAL TELEOnAM TO THE DISPATCH.! Trenton, N. J., January 14. The in quest touching the death of Mrs. Myra Kniffin was continued to-day. Mrs. James Murphy, the aged mother of Mrs. Kniffin, was the first witness. She was dressed in deep mourning. According to her testimony, the relations of Dr. Kniffin and his wife were always pleasant, and Mrs. Kniffin and Miss Purcell were like sisters. They were frequent visitors at the house of the witness. She knew nothing pf the murder of her daughter, further than what Miss Purcell had told her, and what she has heard irom the police and read in the newspapers. "Have yon any reason to believe that Dr. Kniffin or Miss Purcell had anything to do with the murder?" asked a juror. "I have not," replied the lady. SHE BELIEVED IN THE BUKGLAKT. "Have" you any reason to believe that Dr. Shannon had anything to do with it?" "I have not." "Have you any reason to doubt that a burglary occurred at Dr. Kniffin's residence on November 30." "I have not. I always believed there was a burglary." "Was Dr. Kniflin a good provider for his family?" One of the best. My daughter made me a confidante, and if there had been any trouble she would have informed me." "Is it not a fact that your husband was opposed to the marriage" oi your daughter and Dr. Kniffin?" "I never heard any objections from my husband." "Was your daughter's life insured?" "Not that I know of." SOME PUZZLING SIGHS. County Physician Charles B. Leavitt de scribed the condition of Mrs. Kniffin's body when he first saw it, and what the post mortem examination revealed. He and the other doctors came to the con elusion that Mrs. Kniffin had not died a natural death. An irritating volatile sub stance had been applied to her nos trils and mouth. The odor of ether is persistent, and, since, it was not perceptible, the physicians concluded that it was not ether that had been used. Suddenly ap plied and in concentrated form, chloroform is fatal to all animal life. The odor of chloroform disappears quickly. Ether acts as a stimulant to a weak heart; chloroform wonld oppress it. From every indication the doctors believe that chloroform had been used in the case, and that death was due to paralysis of the heart, superinduced by its application. The stomach was sent away lor analysis, for the purpose of ascertaining whether any drug had been administered to Mrs. Kniffin t,o produce a stupefying effect. those upward scratches. Dr. H. Waldburg Coleman, the next wit ness, said he had listened attentively to Dr. Leavitt, and that he agreed fully with his , testimony. He said he had looked carefully at the scratches oa the face, and was of the opinion that they had been made by a small hand. One side of the face the scratches ran upward, in an awkward way for Mrs. Kniffin to have made them; still they might have been made by her while she was under the partial influence of an anaesthetic. The marks could not have been made after death, and the chloroform, if given by an expert, would not have been allowed to come in contact with the face, as it uiu j a mis case. "Why do you think the chloroform was in contact with the face?" "The excoriation indicates it. It was used, evidently, in large quantities, and the more concentrated the anaesthetic is, the greater the danger." , would kill her easilt. "What quantity would be required to kill a person ot Mrs. Kniffin's condition?" ."Her heart was small, and it would take a very small quantity. Twenty drops have frequently killed men In less than two minutes." "Could Miss Purcell have been, nnder the influence of chloroform for four hours?" "Yes; in some cases patients remain in a lethargy for a long time. It depended alto gther on the person." David S. Purcell, the brother of Emma, was now called, to the stand. He was asked if he believed that burglars entered the house and murdered Mrs. Kniffin. "Yes, I do," he answered, EVIDENCE OP BUBGLABY. "Have you any evidence1 that burglars entered the house?" "Ihave. The shntters of the window opening on the porch bore evidence of hav ing been pried open with some instrument. I have found bv investigation that the bolt was insecure, and, alter being fastened, that a little force would spring the shutters open." "Have you any other evidence?" "I found a chair in the dining room with the cane seat broken, as though a person standing on it had put his heel through it. It might have been done by a short, stout man while endeavoring to light the gas. The chair had recently been recaned." The inquest was adjourned until next Monday. FIGHT WITH AN EAGLE. Two Boys Bring Down Game They Cnnnot Handle. Detroit Free Press. Two boys who have been camping out near Black Lake for the purpose of hunting ducks, had quite a lively tussle with a large bald-headed eagle a few days ago. They saw the bird sitting in a tree, but did not know what it was. At the first shot they succeeded in bringing it down with a broken wing, but when they attempted to caDture it they found it was not a very easy matter. Whenever they approached the bird would make savage plunges at them and they had all they could do to keep out ofthe way of its fierce claws and beak. Finding that they could not capture it alive, they shot it, but onlv succeeded in killing it afW having fired half a dozen shots at close range. The eagle measured almost seven feet from tip to tip of its wings, and was of the, bald-headed variety. Dnring the past few years several of these monster birds have been shot in the woods near the lake. .The boys are now trying to capture a large loon for a local collector. It is said to be the only loon left on the lake. Another Contest Taken Up. Washington, January 14.

New York Trlbune.1 It is interesting to note how the Em presses and Princesses of Germany confer with their dressmakers. Not one of the latter ever sees her august patron face to face, but whenever an order is to be given a lady-in-waiting instructs a business estab lishment as to the exact requirements of the royalties. Samples and models are then sent to the palace, where they are received by the lady-in-waiting and by her submitted to the royal ladies. It happens only on very rare occasions that a dress is "fitted" bv the dress maker, the lady's maid at the palace under taking to look to that important detail. Nor is anv measure taken in the usual way, but a well-fitting- bodice is banded to the "artist in dress," and she has to be guided by that alone. Years ago the old Empress Augusta had a model of her figure made, on which all her dresses were fitted. In ordering new costume3, the royal and imperial ladies al ways wish to be informed whether a model to which they take a fancy has already been copied for any other court, as they object to wearing the same costume as another august lady, should they perchance meet in public or in society.

In order to obtain the water force neces sary for the San Miguel Valley placer mining operations, (Treat flumes are built on the mount ain side high above the gravel which is to be moved, and from these flumes the water is car ried down through pipes and forced out of the nozzles by the power of great pressure. The size of the nozzle used varie3 from five to eight Inches in diameter. One who has never seen a hydraulic in operation can have no conception of the power of water. Under a 150-foot bead a stream as large as a stove pipe, looking like a straight white pole, is thrown for 100 feet, with scarcely a particle of spray flying from it. A crowbar cannot be forced into the flying mass, and, if dropped upon It, it bounds upward like a a rubber ball dropped uoou a solid stone.

Under favorable cir cumstances, in the same time it will move and wash OvCOO cubic yards of gravel, or enough to make a hole 50 feet square anu 0 feet deep.

A Russian "travelver in Central Asia writes ot this habit of the wild fowl: "The observations on the spring flieht at Lob-nor afforded new proofs that birds of passage do not take the shortest meridional course, but perfer a more favorable, though more circuitous route. "All the flocks, without exception, which appeared at Lob-nor, came from west south- west, occasionally from southwest and west. Not a bird flew (firectfrom the south, over " the Altintagh mountains, thus proving that migratory birds, or, at all events, water fowl, will not venture to cross the lofty and, cold Thibetan highlands on their passage from the trans-Himalayan countries, but pass over this difficult country at its nar rowest point."
