CALLED H1Z DOWN.
Ed Smith and His ltackers Meet the Cham
pion and Talk Flaln.
If ever Robert Fitzsimmous'has a recollection
of an American city or town he will have a re
collection of Pittsburg. He is the reported
champion middle-welcbt of the world, and last
evening tbe backers of Ed Smith and Smith
himself went and forced an interview with
Filzsimmons at the Seventh Avenue Hotel.
Nothing ungentleuianly was meant and noth
inc uncentlemanly was done. Smith Is confi
dent that be can defeat Fitzslmmons under any
ru'es coverning prize filuinc or modern time
boxing. Smith showed his confidence in colon
and meetinc Mr. Fitzslmmons and in presence
of tbe latter sajing:
"I can beat yonunderany rules you choose to
name for money or for fun."
Jobn Quinn was present and immediately
put up $1,000 as a forfeit for Smith to fight
Firzsimmons at middle-welcbt for a stake.
"Will you cover that?" said Mr. Quiun.
"I haven't a cent," said Fitzslmmons, "but
I'll wire my backer. Mr. Clarke, In Chicago."
A lone conversation followed, in which it was
pointed out tbat bmlth H in Pittsburg for the
express purpose of making a match to ficbt
Fitzslmmons under anv recognized rnles for
the iniddlo-weicht cbampionshlp. Smith's
backers alo pointed out tbat if Fitz
simmons does not hsht. Smith will
claim the title. Finally Filzsimmons see
ing he was surrounded by men who
were there for business agreed to terms to the
ofiect tbat he will fight .Smith at 154 pounds,
weigh at the ringside, fnr the biggest purse
that will be or may be offered. Although the
conditions wero not according to rules tbe
Smith partv accepted them, and as a conse
quence Fitzslmmons is bound to fight Ed
Smith at tbe weight named.
Smith is emphatically in earnest and desires
that a forfeit should bo pnt np to-day to bind
tbe match. He has an idea that tbe blonde
Australian will leave the city before coming to
any definite match-making business. One
thing is true, Fitzslmmons has been called at
his own terms, viz., prize ring weight under
Queensberry rules. He cannot possibly go
back on his own proposition, no matter bow
unfair it may be to Smith. The latter and his
party have been waiting fnr Fitzsimmnns
for a long time in this city and
if the reputed champion goes away
from here without definitely making a match
to flgnt for the title he ought never to nave the
audacity to call himself a champion again. It
Is now a matter beyond a show affair. Fitzslm
mons is either middle-weight champion or he is
not. If In is he must defend his title under tbe
conditions of tbe "ring." 'If he is not a real
champion be will ignore all challenge!: and
continue to travel on tbe effects of cheap show
bills.
Within the next two or three days one or
two clubs will name wbat thev will give. Tbe
Smith party are ready with 2.500 themselves.
THEY WILL BTJB".
Prlddy Agrees to Run Darrin If the Latter
Will Run Here.
Peter Prlddy called at this office last evening
and stated tbat he has received tbe articles of
agreement from Darrin and signed them, with
tbe proviso tbat the race take place in Pitts
burg on Decoration Day.
Prlddy has forwarded a forfeit of S250 to tho
Sporting Times. New York, the amount neces
sary to cover Darrln's forfeit. Prlddy agrees
to run for $1,000 a side, and will allow the Sport
ing T met to be stakeholder, but insists that
the referee be a resident of Allegheny county.
Darrin may agree to this; he cannot well re
fuse. It seems certain that these two distance run
ners will come together, and if tbey do, proba
bly one of the best races ever seen in West
ern Pennsylvania will be witnessed. Darrin
has made an international reputation.' aud
Prlddy has already defeated everybody in
America who has tackled blm at three miles.
At any Tate, it Is safe to say tbat If these two"
men can come to terms and run a race oi tnree
miles tbe winner will be ready to run any other
man in the world.
Bad for Lavine.
Detroit, April 16. Jack Collins, Detroit's
champion slngger. and Rdly Lavine, champion
of the Saginaw Valley, fonght two rounds in
tbe presence of a small audience last night.
Collins is the champion welter-weight fighter
of Michigan. He started in with a rush and in
a moment it was seen tbat Lavine wasn't in it.
He was knocked through the ropes and then to
the floor twice in the first round. Lavine came
np dazed in the second mund and wltb a rush
Collins knocked him flat on his back and
Lavine had to be carried away.
The Whist Players.
Milwaukee, Wis., April 16 The Whist
Congress spent tbe day in tbe discussion of a
series of rules designed to make playing uni
form. As finally adopted tbey permit five
point games. Tbe rules are substantially those
of Cavendish, its principal variations being for
penalties for violations of rules. The number
of points constituting a game are seven.
. Surprised the Citizens.
Newark, April 16. The fact that a prize
fight had been largely attended under the very
noses of the city fathers has created great
deal of surprise here. Last night two local
sports fought In a cellar under a well-known
saloon. The contestants were Fink and Smern
fnr a pnrse of $25, and the latter won in three
rattling rounds.

Fitzmmjio-vs makes an effort to put Billy
Woods up as a buffer between him, Mtzslmmons,
and Smith, lhe latter and Woods are (rood old
lrleud'. Smith only wants to meet Mtzsiimnoni,
the middleweight, not a heavy weight.

A MUNIFICENT GIFT.
Donation of 490,'000 Worth of Kew
York Property by a -Priest
TO THE BIG CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY
That Is Now Under Course of Construction
in Washington.
CAEEER OP THE GREAT BENEFACTOR
tnClXl TILIOlvAal TO THE DlETATCtl.t
New York. April 16. The Key. James
McMahon, pastor of St. Andrew's Koman
Catholic Church, in Duane street, at City
Hall place, made over to-day to the Roman
Catholic University, at "Washington, real
estate in this city and Long Branch, valned
at $490,000 over all incumbrances. Father
McMahon has ciren this property to estab
lish a school of tbeology. He made over the
Ueeds to-day in the office of his lawyers,
Tucker, Hardy aud Wainwright, in Temple
court. He was accompanied by Bishop
John J. Keane, Eectorof the University.
The New York property consists of five
parcels. The first includes three city lots
on Riverside avenue and three on Clermont
avenue, the whole comprising one plot near
One Hundred and Twenty-second street It
is valued at $100,000, and carries a mortgage
of $17,500. The second parcel is' the house
sand lot at 254 West Thirty-fourth street,
now occupied by the Standard Club. This
is valued at 560,000 and is mortgaged for
$20,000. The third pircel includes two lots

gift amounts to 490,000, less mortgage claim of
SK2.000.
Father McMahon Is in bis 75th year, and is
about to retire from active work. For years be
has been known as the wealthiest Catholic
priest in tbe country. It Is believed that be
bas a large . property left, some say", nearly to

was born In Ireland and educated at Maynooth
College, of which bis uncle was President.
Career of Father McMahon.
He studied divinity at the seminary of St.
Snlpice, in Paris and later in the SulDician
Seminary in Montreal. He came to New York
in 1813, and was appointed by Bis hep Hughes
assistant to the Very Rev. "William Starrs, at
the old St. Mary's Church. In 1818 he was made
pastor ot the Cbnrcb of St. John the Evan
gelist, which then owned the property where
the present St. fatrlcK'S cathedral stands.
When tbe church was moved to Fifty-fifth
street and First avenue, and the cathedral
begun, Father McMahon was put in charge of
tbe cathedral. He superintended its building
and officiated as pastor until 1880, wben be was
sent to St Andrew's as pastor. He has been
tbere ever since.
Father McMahon was born a business man.
He had a small inherited fortune when he
came to New York, and amused himself by
dealings in real estate. He was fortunate in
all bis speculations.
An Excellent Scholar.
He acquired tbe Long Branch property in
1669. having purchased it as one of a syndicate.
Later he bought bis associates out. He is also
noted in the church as an exceptional Hebraic
and Biblical scholar. In 1848 be nublislfed a
translation of the New Testament, based upon
Challoner's revision of the old Douav Bible. He
also edited the Haydock Bible. He bas fol
lowed music as a hobbv, and Is familiar with
tbe mechanism ot church organs, and even
skillful in their construction.
Tbe foundation ot the university, to which
the gift is made, was begun four years ago wltb
the gilt of $300,000 from Miss Mary Gwendolln
Caldwell. Father McMabon's is the only con
siderable gift since. Tbe university is for tbe
higher education of priests. Bishop Keane

sign from St, Andrew's and move to Washing-'
ton. Father McMahon declined to say wbat
his intentions were. '
A CROOKED CONCERN.
The Investigation of a Building Association
Reveals a Nest of Fraud.
St. Paul. April 16. Investigation into the
business methods of tbe American Building
and Loan Association has been remitted. Bank
Examiner Kenyou, at the direction of tbe
Governor.has been at work on the association's
books for the past month, and his report, which
was submitted to Governor Merrlam this
morning, is prolific of sensations. '
It finds tbat forfeited stock bas been sold by
the majority of directors to their friends or
trusted employes at a nominal figure; tbat tbe
purchasers In some instances bad tbe numer
ical amount of certificates reduced in number
of shares, so that no further payments would
be necessary, and then borrowed from the as
sociation on tbe stock so rodnced three-fourths
of tbe loan fund, enabling them thereby to get
more money from tbe association than was re
quired to purchase the stocks As conducted in
this manner, the right of forfeiture results in a
loss to tbe association, tbe original stockhold
ers losing tbe entire Investment Tbe Attorney
General bas been instructed to ascertain
whether there is sufficient gronnds to com
mence suit against the company tor the pur
pose of having it close up its affairs, and in
case tbat tbere is, to proceed legally at once.

DSIVE AT WATCH0BS".
Senator nines Denies Tbat He Went Into
the Coke Region to Incite Riot
f FKOM A STAFF CORltESrONDKMT. ,
Habrisbcbo, April 16. There was some
lively sparring in the Senate this morning over
Senator Hines' bill to provide three acrditlonal
clerks for tbe State and two for the Auditor
General's Department. Senator Robbins tried
to amend by reducing tbe number to one in
each department, but it was lost Senators
(Hines and Green defended the increase, saying
tbat it had been1 recommended by Governor
Beaver In his last message, and tbat it was Im
possible to do the work with the present force
of clerks. Senator Gobin asked how it .came,
if extra olerks were needed and the work could
not be done without them, that eight experi
enced and competent clerks had been removed
bv the present administration and inexperi
enced men put in their places? There didn't
appear to be too much work in tbe Executive
Department for one ot tbe clerks' there had
bad time to leave his desk and goroct into tbe
coke regions to incite striking miners to riot.
This drive at Executive Clerk Watchorn
brought Senator Htnes to bis feet with an In
dignant denial of tbe charge. He asserted
tbat tbe "fact wasn't true," but had been con
coeted bv newspaper correspondents who were
paid a penny a line for their rot The bill
passed second reading, bnt the Republican ma
jority will fight it on .final passage. Tbe'e
seoms to be a general feeling against making
any more positions to be filled by Democrats.
Information furnished by the btate Depart
ment shows tbat there has been no increase of
the clerical force there since 1874. In 1873 the
receipts were $7,996 and the expenditures 25,
337 48. leaving a deficit of S17.341. In 1890 tbe
receipts had Incre-ised to 113,935 75, and the ex
penditures to $26,799 S3, leaving a surplus ot
317,136 42. Ins.tue past ten years tbe work at
the corporat ion desks bas more than doubled,
and at the commission desks Increased 50 per
cent
