.PPrCIAL TELEGRAM TO THE TIBPATCH-I
ifew Orleans, Jan. 12. Not since the
great fight between Sullivan and Kilrain
has there been such a gatherinc of sporting
men from all parts of the United States as
throng the corridors of the hotels to-night
and make gay the many brilliant resorts of
the Crescent City. Everybody is talking
fight, and "Wednesday evening can hardly
come too 60on to please these enthusiasts,
many of whom have traveled 2,000 miles to
see Dempsey, the Nonpareil, battle with
Fitzsinimons, the Antipodean, for the purse
of 512,000. and the halo that accompanies it
in the shape of the middle-weight champion
ship. Tne whole city is alive with interest,
which increases hourly now that Dempsey
Is -within its gates and Fitzsiinmons is but SO
miles awaj, and will be here wltliin 21 hours.
The bettirg. which was rather in favor of.
Fitzsimmons up to three or four days ago, has
liken a veer now that
The Nonpareil's Devoted Followers
here are eager to plank their ducats on the
great middle-weight,wbose fame is ucsmirched
save by the single defea at the hands ot La
Blanche, for which his friends are ever ready to
furnish an excuse, and a plausible one at that,
as ever body conversant with the facts must
acknowledge. To-night there is plenty of talk,
but little money ischangini hands, the great
bulk of them ny being held for Dempsey at
anything like eve t money. Fitzsiinmons' fol
lowers, who are few just now. want S100 to SO
or better, and nobody cares to bet at these
figures. Bud Renaud says that he has $00 WW
in back Derousey at anything like respectable
odds, and Morse Ganse, of San Francisco, is
here loaded down viith greenbacks fur a simi
lar purpose. All the Eastern sports are strong
lenipse)ites notwithstanding the fact that
they bavo never seen Fitzsiinmons. They are
content to abide by the records of the two men,
and cannot figure out how Jack can be de
feated, despite the fact that the Zealander has
the best of everything, height, weight, reach
and glumes.
Will Bet His Last Dollar.
Ganse told some friends of his this evening
that Dempsey would carry every dollar that he
could raise, as he had had his friend Josephs,
the Australian bookmaker, hunt up Fitzsiin
mons' record in his own country, and he was
sssnred that he had never whipped anybody
near Dempsey's class. Ganse is also authority
for the story that Jimmy Carroll, who is train
ing Fitzsimmons. kuows in his heart that Lis
protege has no business with the Noupareil.but
the cunning Carroll is going to back Dempsey,
and thus make a sure winner, besides getting a
percentage over and above $20,000 taken in at
the gate. This is highly improbable, as Carroll
is devoted to his man ana has uoikcd like a
slave to have him tit to battle for a kingdom.
Morse Ganse at a late hour bet Major Mc
Laughlin, of Caliioruia. JL0U0 to 800 on Demp
sey. William Walion Norton, an Australian,
who is here, says that Fitzsimmons is a very
clever man, but that he is outclassed by Denii
sey. The California delegation almost to
a man arc with Dempsey, Jim Cornett being the
most notable exception, the heavy-weight from
the slope holding the opinion that it will be a
hot tight, but that Fitzsimmons ill surprise
folks under the existing conditions. Peter
Jackson, who is at Hot Springs, to-day tele
graphed 200 to put on Fitzsimmons.
Dempsey Arrives ou the Scene.
Dempsey accompanied by his wife ana child..
Jack McAulifie and Mike Conley arrived lrom
Galveston this morning and are quartered
in a boarding house in a quiet street on the
bouthsiue- A great crowd was in waiting at
the depot and to throw them off the scent Mc
Aulifie and Mrs. Dempsey took a carriage,
while Dempsey and Conley slunk away in the
throng and escaped observation, somebody in
the gathering proposing three cheers for Mc
Aulrfle, whom they mistook for the champion.
Jack took a long walk during the forenoon and
when seen late this evening by The Dispatch
reporter he was in perfect shape and there will
be uo fault found it victory does not perch upoti
bis banner. He is stronger thanetrr, he de
clares, and will fight at 152pounds. Of course.
"Ec acknowledges that he is handicapped by the
size of the gloves. Ills face is ruddy, and his
clear eyes bespeak vigorous health and an un
impaired digestion, lie will remain in partial
secluiion up to the hour he enters the ring.
His old second, Denny Costigan, is here and
after looking at Jack his joy was unbounded.
He cannot see how Dempsey can be beaten.
The ton is overrun with ngnters of high and
low degree. Kilrain and Muldonn are the latest
additions to the list, (hey reaching here at 5
o'clock this afternoon. The Olympic Club
have everything ready for the mill "and if pres
ent plans are adhered to everything will pass off
smoothly. The club will, from present indica
tions, clear 520.000 on the mill.
TO PH0TECT THE GAME.
Local Sportsmen. Want More Rigid Laws
Against the belling of OualL
At a meeting of the Duquesne Kennel Club,
held at the Hotel Schlosser yesterday, the fol
lowing resolutions were unanimously adopted:
Wiiekeas, Under the decision of the Su
preme Court, in the case of the Commonwealth
versus Wilkinson, the existing laws are de
clared to prohibit only the possession and sale
of game killed within this State; and.
Whereas, It is believed that it was the inten
tion and purpose of the promoter of the
passage of said acts to absolutely prevent the
killing of gamo in this State within the time
specified; and.
Whereas. The construction of said acts per
mitting the possession and ale of game shipped
from other Slates gives such opportunity for
evasion as to render said State acts futile, it is
Resolved, That the Duquesne Kennel Club
use every bonorable means in their power to
procure the passage of such laws as will fully
protect all game within this State.
A special resolution was unanimously passed
by the clnb commending John AY". Hague for
hi 7eal and efficiency in enforcing the game
laws.
It was decided to ask the assistance of all
sporting clubs and sportsmen in the move. The
committee selected by Chairman Boggs is com
posed of the following gentlemen: J. O'H.
Denny, H. M. Breckenndge, John Moorbead.

thing sensational would occur.

been forgotten."

as the Players' League going on with a new cir
cuit of clubs. President Kctcham and Man
ager Morton were hereto-day conferring with

said he had been offered S7.000 for his club, but
it the Association went on be would light. Ex

ONE FOE Friz's PAETY.
Carroll's Protege, O'Connell, Defeats Conley
for the 'Welter-Weight Championship.
New Or.LKAKS. Jan. 12. There was a fight
at the rooms of the Auaubon Association to
night between Doc O'Connell and Eddie Con
ley. of Boston, Mass,, for a $1,000 purse and the
welter-weight championship left vacant by the
death of Paddy Duffr, of Boston. James
Sweeney was chosen referee, and James Cor
bctt and Howe Hodgi.ins.of Boston, were be
hind Conley, while James F. Carroll and a fel
low chum looked after Doc's interests.
Time was called promptly at 9 o'clock, jnd
the men came together pleasantly, but it was
an easy one Dock felt his way and landed his
left. O'Connell attempted to cross counter,
but missed. A good exchange followed,
wherein both lauded O'Connell on the face
and Conlev on the nt ck. O'Connell feinted and
fooled Conley. and then landed a straight left
on the face. Doc landed a good left, but got a
smash on the car that sent him backward.
Carroll coached him to be cautious and he was.
hut Conley, w ho was also ably seconded, landed
a strong right, and Doc went backward. This
was Eddie Conley's round beyond a doubt.
In round two a rapid exchange and straight
lefts showed the determination of both men
not to waste time. Conlev knocked Doc down
and it looked all up with Carroll's protege.
Not so, however. Carroll coached htm well and
he mended rapidly and ducked neatly out ot
Conley's sevro hitting. Doc was groggy from
the heavy punching be had received and Con
ley, good and strong, seemed a winner, barring
accidents, fn round three Doc looked better
and landed his left forearm on Conley three
times. Conley's eye was cut and so was Doc's.
Tins was a fighting round aud no mistake. The
hits landed on each man so often it was hard to
note them. Doc improved, however, as time
went on. and bis caution served him well. He
left many openings, however, that a cleverer
man than his opponent would have taken ad
vantage of. This was O'Connel's round and
Conley looked winded.
In rounds four and five Doc improved his
chances by hitting aud coming away according
to Jimmy Carroll's instructions. The Doctor
got into Conley in the fifth round and barring
a fluke it looked like he must certainly win.
Hone Hodgkin and Jim Corbett rubbed
down and made so presentable an appearance
of Conley for the sixth round, however, that
many knowing ones said, it was not over yet.
This was a good round and Doc improved his
chances greatly by straight left facers and
beautiful body rights, which must have
troubled his adversary greatly. Conley went
to Doc for the seventh round and the Doctor
pelted him into a corner and with a right hand
counter knocked Conley down and out. After
falling. Conley rolled over, and as seven was
counted aloud he attempted to rise, but his
legs were gone, aud down be went, completely
beaten. He was pronounced a brave and nice
little fellow by nearly all who saw bim battle
against Doc's superior science. It was a hard
fight.
MAT GET A FEANCHISE.
Al Johnson Likely to Get the Cincinnati
Club of the National League.
rfPEftAI. TELEQKAH TO THE DlSPATrrt:
New Yokk. Jan. 12. Baseball magnates are
arriving in great numbers and deals are already
going on. The deals mean that matters may
all be fixed up in a much easier way than

expressed to The Dispatch representative
to-day,mean thatthe reserve rule will stand and
a new National agreement will be adopted,

Distress in London.
HOBEIFIIKCr TALE 0B A WIDOW.
Tho Pathetic Death of One Unfortunate
in a Policeman's Arms.
RAVENOUS MEN FIGHTING FOK RELIEF.
IBT DUXLAP'S CABLE COJIPANY.l
Lojf DOif, Jan. 12. In consequence of the
revelations which have lately been made,
with regard to the urgent need or the poorer
classes, the charitably disposed have come
forward daring the last few days, and the
poor boxes of the police courts have been re
plenished, so that the sitting magistrates are
now able to meet the pressure of urgent ap
peals. In all the churches of the metropolis,
strong appeals were made and large sums
were realized.
In spite of all this endeavor, instances of
distress are crowding in upon the notice of
the authorities. Some of them are pitiful in
the extreme, and horrifying, too. Thus a
woman, appealing to a magistrate to-day
for aid, told him that her husband and one
of her children were lying dead from starva
tion at her lodgings. "She asked for assist
ance to enable her to pay the landlord, and
prevent him turning her into the street until
she could get the corpses buried. She said
she had five other children, who were with
out clothing and without food. On Satur
day night a policeman tried to assist a thinly
clad man to the workhouse, and tho unfortu
nate creature died in his arms.
Another cause of distress is due to the block
ing of the harbors on the coast of Holland, as
well as Trieste and Odessa, with masses of ice.
This causes a great deal of delay in the arrival
of ships sailing from these ports, and the slip
prlness of the wharves, caused by the ire
fines in the river, has caused many fatal acci
dents. The Scotch strike, too, has caused an im
mense amount of derangement in the shipping
between London and Glasgow. Hundreds of
men are suffering and even dying in silence,
bnt the scenes ot ravenous men fighting for
relief tickets at the depots in the East End,
tells the true tale of the distress that prevails.
A welcome thaw set in this afternoon.

Liverpool, Jan. 12. Americans will regret

Engineers-on their visit to Liverpool in 18SS,
and to many other parties of Americans since
then. On the occasion mentioned, Mr. Fait
provided special trains for the visitors. He ex
plained the general working, pumping, venti
lating and other arrangements of the tunnel
under the Mersey.
He had been superintendent ever since the

which developed into pneumonia.

Paris, J3n. 12. The best authorities, the
heads of police, say that there is grave reason
for doubting the identity of the man arrested
at Olot, who professes to be the murderer of
General Seliverstroff. If the French police
could rely upon the official reports the man
might undoubtedly be Padlewski, but there
are convincing grounds for disbelief in his
story.
The Chief of Police has requested the photo

Aid Asked for the Railroad Operators on
the Milwaukee Line.
Toledo, Jan. 12. The Commercial to-morrow
will publish a circular issued by Chief A.
D. Thurston to the Order of Railway Teleg
raphers, asking contributions to support the
operators on the Chicago, Milwaukee and St.
Paul Railway iu their contemplated strike. It
is dated Vinton, la., January 9. and recites
that about December 10, that road issued an
order reducing salaries of about one-fourth of
their station agents and operators to meet the
increase granted conductors and trainmen.
An agreement was being circulated among
tho men for signatures, specifying that those
out should decline to accept the reduction, a
committee should await upon the officials ask
ing a restoration of wages, failing which every
signer was to tender his re-ignation. Before
this bad been circulated over the entire system
the division superintendents informed every
signer that he must withdraw his name or be
discharged. The committee ot operators met
on January 7 and decided that to yield would
merely put off the evil day, and that the sign
ers would be marked men to be removed as
soon as possible, and that the men should stand
nrm and resist the reduction.
Chief Operator Thurston explained that the
men who signed the agreement did so as em
ployes of the Chicago. Milwauke.0 and St. Paul
road, and not as members of the order, and
that a majority of tbem are not members; but.
that the order should take up the cause of
"men who have so manfully asserted their
principles in' resisting such flagrant injustice."
Hence he calls npon members of the order to,
contribute at once, as the expense of the move
ment will be more than the men involved can
stand. The circular is signed by A. LTliuis
ton. Chief Operator, and S. O. Fox, Grand
Secretary and Treasurer.

A Traveling Salesman for Heinz Brought to
Bay by His First Wife He Admit His
Second Marriage, bat Claims He Was

Henry G. McCune, a traveling salesman
for H. J. Heinz & Co., was arrested yester
day and charged with desertion and bigamy
by Mrs. P. B. McCune. his first wife, who is
now a dressmaker in Allegheny. Several days
ago a Dispatch reporter discussed Southern
trade with the gentleman at the Seventh Ave
nue, and this is how his presence in the city
was discovered.
Mrs. McCnne"No. 1 claims that about three
years aeo her husband doped with a Miss Hop
km. Previous to that time she says she sup
ported him and kept him well dressed from the
proceeds of a farm she sold and by dress
making. McCnne met Miss Hopkinswhlle he
was in the sewing machine business. The lady
showed a letter from MissHupkins to nlcCune.
in which she speaks or him as her "dear boy,"
and at tho bottom of the epistle was a number
of stars supposed to stand for kisses. His
reply, which was intercepted, was more guarded
and consisted principally of a poetical effusion.
Detective Shore discovered that McCune was
married, as he had registered as man and wife
at the Seventh Avenue. When broughf face
to face yesterday with wife No. 1 she got red
and his face whitened. "Did you marry that
Hopkins girlT" she asked, excitedly.

PEESENTED AT LAST.
Three Reports on Ohio's Ballot Box
Case Made to Congress.
FOEAKfiR EXONERATED BY MASON.
Tie Eest of the Committee, However, Con-
Vdemn Bim and Halstead
IN THE HOST UJSMEASORED TECMS
'Washingtok, Jan. 12. The report of
the House Ballot Box Committee, wnich
last session made an extensive Investigation
into Ohio political affair?, in connection
with alleged snbscriptions by members of
Congress of stock in a patent ballot box, was
to-day presented to tho House by Mr.
Mason, of Illinois, the Chairman of the in
vestigating committee. The main report,
which is signed by all the members of the
committee, says:
"In response to the first inquiry directed
by the resolution, vis.: 'By whom said al
leged contract was prepared, and -whether
the several signatures appended thereto are
forged or genuine,' we find that said al
leged contract was dictated (prepared) by
Kichard G. Wood, and that all the signa
tures thereto are forged.
"In response to the second inquiry di
rected by the resolution, viz., 'If forged,
what person or persons, if any, were directly
or indirectly aiding, abetting, assisting, or.
knowingly consenting to the preparation
and uttering of said forgery, and for what
purpose?" we find that Kichard G. Wood,
Frank and I.- llihvard, and Frank S.
Davis were the only persons directly or in
directly aiding, abetting, assisting, or know
ingly consenting to the preparation of said
forgery -with knowledge of its character.
Forakorand Halstead's Connection.
Milward and Davis were without evil in
tent in the part they took in the transsction
and had no other purpose than to accommo
date K. G. "Wood, and at Wood's request;
and said Wood uttered said forgery for the
purpose of procuring Governor Foraker's
recommendation of himself to the Mayor of
Cincinnati, O., for appointment to an office
of that city designated in the evidence as
"Smoke Inspector."
We further hod that J. B. Foraker and Murat
Halstead aided in uttering said forgery. Mr.
Foraker by exhibiting the paper to several per
sons and thereafter delivering it to Mr. Hal
stead, and Mr. Halstead aided in uttering said
forgery bv publishing the forged paper on Oc
tober 4, lb83, in the Commercial Gazelle; but
we find that neither of said parties, Foraker
and Halstead. in ottering said paper, knew the
same was a forgery.
In response to the third inquiry directed by
the resolution, vis., whether any of the mem
bers whose names appeared on said alleged
contract had or have, either directly or indi
rectly, any unlawful, corrupt or improper con
nection with, or interest in, the ballot boxes
that were the subject matter of said alleged
contract, we find that no one person whose
name appears on said alleged contract bad or
has, either directly or Indirectly, any unlawful,
corrupt or improper, or anyotber connection
with, or interest in, the ballot boxes which are
said to ne the subject of said alleged contract;
and that there never was any other contract
relating to said ballot boxes in which either of
these persons, alone or jointly with otb.ers,-was
in any way interested.

Hot Shot for Foraker and Halstead.
The supplementary report, signed by all the
members of the committee except Chairman
Mason, reports the following additional find
ings: We think that the conduct of Wood during
the negotiations with Governor Foraker, and
also pending the execution of their agreement,
disclosed his depravity.
We also believe that a careful scrutiny of
the face of the forged paper must have shown
its false character. The high stations attained
in public affaird and in public confidence by
the persons whose names: wure forged, should
have suggested verification of the corrupt
paper before it was uttered or published. In
formation as to its real character was near and
easy of access as disclosed by the report of tho
committee.
The publication of the false paper in the
Commercial Gazette, showing Mr. Campbell's
name and suppressing all other signatures,
was, almost as bad as the original fabrication
of the paper. It was a spoilation of evidence.
The entire incident the committee have
been instructed to investigate, is an example
of political methods deserving the condemna
tion of all parties and all good citizens.
Mason Explains His rosition.
Mr. Mason, in a minority report, says that he
cannot agree with the additional findings of
his colleagues, first, because they aro not
within the inquiry propounded by the resolu
tion under which the committee was ap
pointed. Mr. Mason expresses his inability to agreo
with his associates in the statement that a
careful scrutiny of the. forged paper must have
shown its false character, it is easy now to
know in January, 1891, irbit wu ought to have
known in September. 1SS3. Whether or not
Messrs. Foraker and Halstead treated well the
"entlemen who were outraged by the forgerv"
b ' not seeing them personally is a question of
ethics not involved in this investigation, nor
does it throw any light upon our aubiect, as to
who forged and who uttered the forgery. The
same can be said of the charge with reference
to the publication of Campbell's name alone
and tho suppression of the others.
"I cannot agree," continues Mr. Mason,
"that the publication of a paper, or a part of
it, which the publisher believes to be genuine,
and the suppression of a part of it, ranks with
the crime ot forgery, and especially whore the
suppression is not a part of the subject matter
of the paper. x
They Were Simply Deceived.
"The publication of the forged paper by Mr.
Halstead, long before election, is conclusive to
my mind that ho was thoroughly deceived ana
believed It to be genuine, and wben he fonnd
that he was mistaken he at once published over
his own signature the most complete retraction.
Both Messrs. Halstead and Foraker have fur
nished all the evidence within their power to
this committee, even submitting tboir pnvate
and personal correspondence, that ever thing
could be shown to the committee.
"Being deceived is the only offense of Messrs.
Halstead and Foraker. They each hafe made
reputation and character equal, perhaps, to
any of the gentlemen who were outraged by
the forgery. Since they found they were de
ceived they have done all in their power as
bonorable men to make amends. To ask more
seems to me to bo most unjust, and believing,
as I do, that the evidence does not warrant the
censure indulged in by my associates on the
cnmmltteo in the above additional findings,
against such additional findings I most re
spectfully but most earnestly protest."

THE iniLEE-HOENEE WEDDING.
A Brilliant Society Event Taking Place at
Christ JL EL Church.
The Miller-Horner wedding was solemnized
in a brilliant manner in Christ M. E. Church
last evening. The sanctuary was filled with
guests representing the wealthy and cultured
circles of which both the bride and groom are
popular members, aud was beautifully decora
ted for the occasion. The bridal party was an
nouced by the wedding march, and. preceded
by the four ushers, traversed the aisle to the
tropic-laden altar. The bride was attended by
Miss Lilly Palmer and Miss McClure as maids,
and cunning little Helen Wituerow as maid of
honor. Mr. Miller was supported by E. E. Lit
tle as best man. The ushers were Messrs. Al
bert Long, Thornton Orr, Frank E. Richardson
and S. Raymond Horner.
Miss Horner was attired in white corded silk,
fashioned to display the grace of her potite fig
ure, and wore a veil that partly concealed the
beauty of her girlish lace. The groom was
handsome and manly enough to be the hero in
an Ideal marriage. Mr. Miller's good looks,
however, are not all the gentleman has to rec
ommend bim. He is equally fortunate In men
tal possessions and attainments, and his long
continued illness has been productive of uni
versal sympathy. Tho church ceremonies were
followed by a reception at the borne of tbo
bride, on Stockton avenue, at wbicb only rela
tives were present, but where the brightness
and charm of the bride's manner was particu
larly noticeable. An Eastern wedding trip will
be taken.
