NO JEMPORAL POWER
For the Pope Is Possible Either. Now
or in the Future, Says a
LEADING CATHOLIC OF ENGLAND.
Secretary Lilly Kot in Favor of
force to Restore It
Brute
HAPPENINGS BETOND THE BIG POND.
Losdox, March 2. William Samuel
.Lilly, Secretary of the Catholic Union of
Great Britain, presiding at the annual re
union of Boman Catholics at Birmingham,
delivered a sensational address on the sub
ject of the temporal power of the Papacy,
which is certain to attract the attention of
the Vatican and of the whole Bonian Catho
lic world, and, indeed, of the Prctestant
world as well, on account of Mr. Lilly's
learning and statesmanship and his many
contributions to literature and the leading
periodicals on historical and religious sub
jects. Few men would command so general
respect when speaking from within the
ranks of the Eoimsh organization, and what
he has said is full of good sense and political
sagacity, whatever bias he may labor under
a- an adherent of Komanism.
Lilly said that the temporal power of the
Pope has always been an artificial institu
tion, e en in the most favorable circum
stance that have existed in the history of
the Boniish hierarchy, and that it is now
practically dead, and is never likely to be
revived.
The Qnirip.al's Peace Oflerliig.
He contends that the Papal guarantee bill
in Italy is a delusion and a snare, devised
only to quiet the Vatican and quite impos
sible as a practical measure in the existing
political conditions, or in any that can
aric in the future. He claims, as a corrol
lary of the abolition of the temporal power,
that the spiritual independence of the Pa
pacy, and the material means by which that
independence is upheld, should be placed
under the protection of the public law of
Europe, and he justifies Pope Leo XIIL
and his predecessor, Pius IX., in rejecting
the oiler of an annual allowance from the
Italian Government under the law of guar
antees. In other words, he makes everr possible
claim for ihe preservation of theTbest possi
ble position for the Roman See, while stat
ins the utter folly ol the very claims upon
which the Pope and his advisers most stren
uously insist. He assumes the attitude of a
faithlul Boinanist while showing the ab
surdity of the Iloman Catholic position.
Brute Force Emphatically Condemned.
Mr. Lilly declares that he can conceive
nothing more disastrous to the Boman
Catholic cause, or a deadlier blow to the
Bope's moral influence throughout the
world, or a greater triumph to the enemies
of the Pope, than an attempt by brute force
to restore the temporal power.even over the
small area of the Citv of Bome, to sav
othing of the old "States of the Church."
The significance of this utterance is fully
shown when it is compared with the virtu
ally simultaneous utterances of Leo XIIL,
who, yesterday, on the eve of his birthday,
which is to-dav, at a solemn audience in the
throne room of the Vatican, to the members
of the College of Caidinals, enunciated his
determination to still fight for the two guid
ing principles of Pope Innocent IIL, whose
reign was cotemporaneous with the Magna
Cfcarta of England 1198 to 1216 namely,
the redemption of the hcly places and the
independence of the Church.
The common sense of a statesman, scholar
and secular man of affairs, who is, at the
tame time, a Boman Catholic, is in strong
contrast to the other utterances of the Pope,
and particularly notable since he says all
he can in favor of the Bomish Church as a
continuous political society.
THE GBEEK KILL WILL APPEAL.
The Chamber Prorogued and the Old Min
istry Peremptorily Dismissed.
Athens, March 2. The Chamber will be
prorogued to-day until March 6. An early
dissolution is considered certain, in view of
the vote of confidence in the Delyannis
Ministrv adopted by the Chamber yester
day. J.he Jving na never belore met with
such opposition.
The result ot extraordinary actions is that
the whole Ministry tras peremptorily dis
missed by the royal authority, end a decree
was issued to-day proroguing the Chamber.
As soon as the new Ministry is completed,
the Chamber, with which it cannot co-exist,
will be dissolved and an appeal made to the
country. The crisis is the most serious
w hich Greece has had for many years.
LOUBErS FBENCH PEOGBAHKE.
Republicans Asked to Discard Barren Is
sues and Stick to Home Reforms.
Paris, March 2. According to a forecast
of the declaration of policy of the new Cabi
net, to be read in the Chamber of Deputies
to-morrow, the Ministry will appeal to Be
publicans to refrain from barren and irritat
ing questions, and to concentrate their ef
forts on home reforms; will announce the
maintenance of the concordat, with the ap
plication of organic statutes sufficient to in
sure the rights of the State, and will de
clare in favor of the development of the
army and the continuance of the diplomacy
which has gained allies for Prance, thus as
suring peace.
DESPEKATE TJHEMPIOYEDl
German 'Workmen Attack Polish Laborers
in the Streets orHanovcr.
Berlin, March 2. A large number of
unemployed workmen of Hanover marched
in procession to the municipal canal works
in that city to-day, and de-
-manded the discharge of all the
Polis-h laborers. Their demand being
refused, they made an attack on the Poles,
and a number were injured in the fight

that Emperor William has received t large
number of letters from workinemen, in
which they express regret for the" disturb
ances that .broke out in Berlin Thursday
last. The writers assure His Majesty that
the loyaltv of theworkingmen remains un.
shaken. The confidence of the Emperor, in
riding through the excited crowds Friday
last, seems to have specially impressed the
people.
A Protest by the American Minister.
' Constantinople, March 2. Mr. Hirsch,
tb.e American Minister, has received a re
ply to the protest to the Porte against the
decree compelling foreign schools to obtain
official permits. The reply is, in effect,
that the British Embassy has already ac
cepted the decree. Americans bere believe
that Mr. Hirsch's vigorous protest will lead
to a cautious execution of the decree.

Berlin, March 2. Herr Beinier, leader

Socialists Disown the Riots.
,BEiiLi2r. March 2. At a meeting of 2,000
Socialists to-day the speakers denounced the
charge that Socialists originated and took
part in the recent riots in this city. A
solution was adopted declaring that it is
tne true doctrine of Socialists to abstain
from disorders, as such conduct only
furnishes the Government with a pretext
for the adoption of repressive measures.
A Crank Motion lb the House of Xiords.
London, March 2. In the House of
Lords, Baron Denmana, whose oddities the
House usually passes over in silence, moved
the repeal of the local government acts for

they had been passed in a hurry. The mo
tion was rejected without debate.

The Baptist Council Recommends the
Trustees to Reslffn and Apolojjlze They
Take the First, bnt Not the La ft. Ad
vice The Tastor, Also, Steps Down.
Oil Citv, March 2. Special Bev. C
A Adams. D. D., of Franklin, preached
last night at the Baptist Church in this city.
After the sermon the members of the con
gregation were requested to remain and
hear the findings of the recent council of
ministers and laymen called to adjust, if
possible, the difficulties existing in the
church.
The findings of the council were then
read. The chief feature ot these findings
was that portion which censured the mem
bers of the board of trustees for exceeding
their authority in sending a letter to the
pastor, in which he was given notice that
they would not be responsible for
liissalary after the expiration of his second
v'ear as pastor of the church, which year ex
pired the 16th of last month. In the judg
ment of the council, two ot tlie trustees,
Levi Vredenbnrg and "W. P. Fornof,
should resign and apologize, ac
knowledging that they had ex
ceeded their authority.
Mr. Vredenburg, with the other members,
resigned as trustees, and Mr. Vredenburg
last night resigned his position as deacon,
but did not tender and apology. Mr.
Fornof was not present.
The council did not make any recom
mendation as to what course the pastor,
Bev. H I. McKeever, should pursue, but in
the course of the trouble that gentleman
had explained that, while he desired to
resign, he did not feel that he
could do so honorably, on account
of the attitude the Board of Trustees
had assumed toward him. The findings
of the council made no suggestion on this
point, but at the meeting last night, the
Board of Trustees having resigned, the pas
tor tendered his resignation, to take effect
June 30. A meeting will be held to-night
to elect another Board ot Trustees.
NOW HE'S A MOBDEKEE.
The Hero of the New York Express Robbery
Said to Be Red-Handed.
I Lyons, March 2. Spo-iA It is report
ed heie that a letter has been received by
the bheriff saying that the train robber,
Oliver Curtis Perry, now in jail, is wanted
111 Minnesota on the charge of a double
murder. When called upon to-day
Deputy Sheriff Collins refused either to
affirm or to deny the receipt of such a let
ter, but intimated that it was true. When
pressed he refused to give any particulars.
Perry's refusal to give any account of his
whereabouts during the interval between
the TJtica train robbery and the attempt in
Lyons, although he talks very freely
about these two incidents, and the
further fact that he has exhibited
a dread of being interviewed
by detectives, gives color to the re
port that he has committed more serious
crimes than those which he has confessed.
Deputy Sheriff Collins refuses to allow
Perry to be interviewed on the subject

EATINGS OF THE DIFFERENT BEGIMEXTS
IfTT.ClAI. rTX.TOK.JM TO TUB DISPATCH.t
Harrisburg, March 2. Acting Adju
tant General Krumbhaar has been pushing
the reports at headquarters and to-day the
manuscript was placed in the hands of .the
State printer. .Major General jSnowden's
report is quite voluminous and covers the
operations of the guard very fully. He re
fers in complimentary terms to the admir
able movement of troops during the coke
riots and adds: "It is gratifying to regard
this swift and formidable demonstration as
an illustration of the ability of the entire
division instantly to respond to calls of a
like or even more serious nature."
Considerable space is devoted in the re
port to the ceremonies incident to the dedi
cation of the Hartranft Monument erected
by the guard. He deplores the departure
from the table of rations heretofore in use
at camp and thinks the issue of butter,
milk, eggs and fresh beets, corn, tomatoes,
not to speak of watermelons and the like, is
an innovation open to serious consideration.
He thinks the extra expense on this Ecore
would probably be sufficient to support an
other troop of cavalry and another batterv.
He also deprecates so much baggage in
camp and thinks this is a matter which
ought to be prescribed in regulations from
the highest source.
Officers Must Not Mess With Men.
There is censure, too, of officers messing
with their men at camps on State rations.
"An officer has recently been tried," he
says, "for taking some ot the rations for use
at an officer's mess. While the verdict of
acquittal has not met with my approval, the
trial will doubtless stop like offenses in the
future." Hereafter all the officers will be
required to have separate messes of their
own. The report states that the suggestion
: to enlist company cooks would, if adopted,
obviate the dancer of the companies beine
left in an emergency without persons skilled
in cooking.
With respect to uniform the Major Gen
eral recommends new overcoats, uniform
shirts of a dark color and a serviceable shoe
fit for camp and campaign duty. He ap
proves the use of leggings and the armv fa
tigue hat instead of the helmet The in
spections, he says, were close, exacting and
complete. Regarding rifle practice he pro
tests against the efforts of the General In
spector of Eifle Practice to interfere with
the line officers by the proposition to mus
ter out companies" which have not qualified
a certain number of marksmen. He re
marks that the duties of the Inspector Gen
eral were fulfilled by observing the manner
in which instructions and practice were car
ried out and not in taking command to carry
them out himself. Considerable space is
given to the discussion of the proposed re
organization of the guard on the battalion
basis. The charges of mi-conduct involv
ing the Thirteenth Infantry were found to
be without foundation. The example of
Colonel Hulings putting his men into camp
outside the regular encampment is com
mended. As to the presence of the guard
at.the World's Fair, he thinks the time se
lectedfrom the 5th to the 20th of August,
1893 is the most suitable.
As to the Third Brigade.
General Gobin says in the report of the
Third Brigade that there has been no
change in the organization and that the reg
iments have maintained their organizations
intact . A'feature has been the organization
and arming of several cadet confpanies in
connection with or under the supervision of
regular commands. These are intended to
prepare men to enter the guard when of
proper age. The inspections were rigid and
exactin'g and to him eminently satisfactory.
The various organizations appeared with
full rauks at the brigade encampment at
Mount Gretna. The commissariat was in'
every respect satisfactory, the sanitary con
dition excellent and the discipline unexcep
tionable. The routine work and drill were
entered into with commendable zeal and a
marked improvement seemed to follow each
day's operations.
He calls attention to the necessity for an
entire new equipment for the battery. The
rifle practice produced results exceeding his
most sanguine expectations. There was a
gain of 518 marksmen over the previous
year. It is startling to think of the execu
tion which could be accomplished by such a
body of soldiery, capable, with the im
proved weapons in rapid firing, of loading
aud firing from 12 to 13 times a minute. The
Third Brigade won the brigade trophy at
the annual rifle match at ML Gretna and
thereby becomes the "permanent owner.
General Gobin is not favorably impressed
with the perfection of the changes in tactics
recently recommended by a board ot offi
cers and approved by the Secretary of
War. It is evident that the radical
changes made by these tactics will require
judicious, careful work, which cannot too
soon be begun. He suggests the propriety
of issuing an easy, low-heeled, broad-soled
army shoe. They would protect the feet of
the men and be inexpensive. If the na
tional guard is to keep pace with the march
of progress and, produce the army of the
future with change of tactics and move
ments, it should also be made to conform
throughout to the new and changed condi
tions. He deplores the loss of a valuable
staff officer in the resignation of Major
Everett Warner, Judge Advocate.
Prai-a for the Western Boys.
General Wiley, of the Second Brigade,
refers at length in his report to the strike
in the coke regions last spring and the ad
mirable conduct of the troops detailed for
duty during the trouble. He returns his
most grateful thanks to Colonel Hawkins,
of the Tenth Begiment, Colonel Smith, of
the Eighteenth Begiment, and every com
manding officer and man of these com
mands for their splendid service while on
duty in the coke regions. The spring in
spictions of the brigade, General Wiley
says, show a marked improvement over
the previous year. He calls attention to
the unnecessarfadditions made to the issue
ot the Commissary Department ot green corn,
milk, butter, eggs, etc., during the en
campment, which should not be issued at
all. A good full army ration is sufficient
for camps and campaigns. It is not his be
lief that soldiers are not fond ot these arti
cles and they should never eat them. Two
or three issues will entail the belief that
they are part of the rations and without
them dissatisfaction tnd complaints accu
late. Then the cost is considerable.
Brigadier General Dechert, of the First
Brigade, in his report gives the strength of
the brigade as 178 officers, 2,475 enlisted
inca, a total of 2,053, a gain ot 27 enlisted
men and 23 officers over last year. He re
grets that a comparatively small portion of
the command paraded at the spring inspec
tion, as he thinks these are a better test of
the general standing of the companies than
the inspection at the annual encampment,
when every effort is made to secure - the at
tendance of the men of the commands.
The Third Regiment Troubles.
He suggests that the equipments of some
companies be renewed, and asks for modern
practical guns and eauipments for the bat
tery. The Second .Begiment, he savs, is
about to build a new armory on Broad
street, Philadelphia, and he appeals to the
generosity of the citizens to aid in its speedy
construction. General Dechert regrets the
dissensions in the Third Begiment which
hare seriously impared its discipline and
usefulness and resulted in the courtmartial
and dismissal of Colonel William B. Smith.
The General compliments the First troop
on its efficiency and regrets that it was not
allowed to participate as a separate com
pany at the ML Gretna 'rifle contest. The
General mentions the conflict with the civil
authorities over the Hartranft range at
lrankford, which was finally abandoned as
dangerous to life, and hopes to secure' a
suitable range this spring.
Quartermaster General Greenland in his
report strongly advocates taking the Na
tional Guard to the Columbian Exposition.
He says it is entirely practicable, would
cost but little more than a division camp
within the State,vand would afford an op
portunity to 75 per cent of the members of
the guard to visit the Fair who otherwise
would not be able to attend.
The Spring sAd Fall Ratines.
Inspector General McKUbben accompanies
the tabulated statement of the ratings of
the different regiments with, a report in
which he recommends that inspection by
brigade inspectors be made hereafter in
January or February, that the reports may
be more early available and speaks of the
poor condition of the equipments of the
fuard in general. He found that the
rigades while in camp made rapid
improvement, and suggests that it the First
and Second Brigade inspections had been
held a few days later their ratings would
have been much higher. He also points out
the necessity for attaching more importance
to the inspections made by brigade inspec
tors. The Inspector General calls attention
to the number of instances of officers, men
and musicians departing from the prescribed
uniforms.
The following tabulated statements give
the results of the spring aud fall inspections
of 189L At the spring inspections the pos
sible general average is placed at 80; in the
fall at 100. This must be borne in miud
when comparing the results of the two inspections.

CONVICTED Si TELEPHONE,
A Novel Scheme- Which Lawyers for
the
Victim Will Contest.
Tiffin, O., March 2. Fritz Grummel, of
this city, is a pioneer in one line at leasL
He can boast of being the first man
on record arraigned, tried, con
victed and committed by telephone.
Grummel was arrested for disorderly con
duct and appeared in the police court to
answer that charge. The Mayor presides
in police court trials in this city, and Grum
mel vas the only offender in court.
Mayor Abbott lives 10 or 15 squares from
the Police Court and was indisposed. Ac
cordingly he had the accused arraigned and
heard the plea of "not guilty" by tele-
Ehone. The prosecuting policeman was
eard, and ;then the statement of the de
fendant, both talking through the tele
phone. The Judge then summed up the evi
dence, sentenced the prisoner and committed
him to jail, all by telephone.
The prisoner was hustled off to prison, but
now his attorneys will contest, claiming the
whole affair was absurd and "illegal," and
that as a matter ot fact their client was
never in court, never tried, and is therefore
illegally held.

Bayfield, Wis., March 2. The County
Board of Bayfield county, in session to-day,
declared the office ot County Clerk vacant
and appointed John Frosenath to fill the
late official's unexpired term.
The progress ot the expert in examining
the county records gave what the board
considered sufficient evidence that A. T.
Williams, the County Clerk for several
years, was $3,000 to 5,000 short in his ac
counts. Williams has not been seen for
over a week. The exact nature and amount
of the shortage will have to be ascertained
as the expert progresses. Williams was
very popular throughoutthe county.

show the muscle as much as Fitzsimmons'
did. His particularly showing point was
his chest, which showed him to nave a quan
tity of wind.
When Fitzsimmons entered the ring a
shout of applause went up, and it was
quite evident that whatever the views of the
sporting men as to the fight, the popular
feeling was with the Australian. When his
coat was removed his audience was able to
appreciate his magnificent muscular devel
opmenL His legs still have the appearance
of being weak and undersized, and this was
more than ever apparent, because his
body looks.
So Much Larger Than Formerly,
with the 16 pounds he has added since he
met Dempsey, bnt a closer inspection of the
legs showed that, while undersized, they
were not weak, for they appeared all muscle,
and the sinews stuck ouL His chest devel
opment was even more marked than before,
and his long arms were undoubtedly
fuller, but no one could say that this was
due to any excess of flesh, tor .nowhere did
the flesh show, and he. seemed a bundle of
muscle and sinews. A glance, however,
convinced everyone that he was a much
heavier and stouter man than before.
The universal verdict was that he slipped
into the ring a better man than when be
fought Dempsey, and Fitzsimmons stock
rose appreciatively when the audience saw
him stripped and ready for the fray.
Fitzsimmons was seconded by Jimmie
Carroll, Joe Choynski, Aleck Greggains
and Jim Robertson. The timekeepers were
announced as B M. Frank for the club,
George B. Clark for Fitz, and P. Donohue
for Maher.
DETAILS OF THE BATTLE.
Fitzsimmons Has the Adrantaso From
Kound 1 to Bound 12 One of the
Greatest Pugilistic Parties Ever Seen
How the Fight Was Lost and Won.
Fitzsimmons did not seem like a man
going into the contest of his life while he
as being rubbed down. Carroll opened
and read a bundle of telegrams from all over
the country, wishing the Australian suc-
cess. -The most interesting one was from
his wife.
The men entered the ring exactly at 9
o'clock, Feter Maher first, dressed in black
trousers, with black stockings and black
( fighting Bhoes. Fitz entered a moment
later and grasped Maher's hand, and was
cheered to the echo for so doing. Jimmy
Carroll followed his principal's example,
and Choynski and Greggains, who assisted
Carroll in Fitzsimmons' corner, imme
diately began the preperations for the
battle.
Madden was pale as death during this
preparation for the fight. The usual parley
in the center of the ring took in one of the
greatest pugilistic parties ever seen, and the
good fellowship that marked the opening
chat elicited very favorable comment. Both
men were stripped to the waisL Fitz wore
a scarlet breech cloth, with black fighting
shoes and black stockings.
The Fight Told by Bounds.

tralian's left. Maher was trying for a right

all in Fltz's lavor. '

center briskly, and Fitz landed a lett stom
acner. Both exchanged lefts on the head,
and Maher flung his right lightly in his op
ponent's ribs. Fitz cleverly ducked, pulled
himselroucora tight corner into which tne
Irishman had placed him. The latter, how
ever, readied a heavy pivot blow which was
not barred in the agreement. It was a heavy
blow ton the neck, and drew forth objections
from Maher's corner. The Irishman landed,
a heavy right on Fitz's jaw, got in too close,
and received two heavy lefts in the mouth.
Fitz now lands a left on Maher's jaw.

went to his corner?
Blaher Brglns to Break Down.
Bound -9 Maher appeared rather weak,
still trying for the right. -He landed a
moment later, but received a left heavy on
the nose. Fitz ducked neatly out of a cor
ner, but received a right uppeicut on the
ribs, which made him grunt. Maher'nleft
lead for the bead fell short, and he wasted a
great deal of his strength by missing fre
quent blows. Fitz landed two lefts on tba
nose, was perfectlycool,andavoided several
heavy swings. The Australian laughed and
chatted with his opponent in this round,
and really looked like a winner- He landed

the nose from Fitz's forearm, but landed a
heavy right on Fitz's Jaw. It was anybody's
fight now, trorii appearances, though Fitz

immediately sent 'n a heavy blow on the
j oit swutli, vie Qir.sa-13. a reil-weim
right slipped off Fltz's Jaw, and Maher
missed a riKbt-and-Ieft swing for the head.

Bound 11 Fitz landed -a light left and
avoided Maher's right in return. Both
landed light lefts, and Fitz avoided two
right swings intended for the stomach. Fitz
hit Maher a heavy right in the jaw and

on the back of his head. Fitz staggered nis
opponent with a heavy left, and jabbed the
same hand under the sore nose and mouth
again as time was called.' This was Fitz's
round.
The End In Fitz's Favor.
Bonnd 12 Fitz stock went ud as the battle
progressed, and as his left shot into Maher's
sore mouth again the blood responded
freely. The Australian was tafcing his
time, now, seemingly feeling secure.
Maher's head went back twice with two
heavy lefts, and the Australian stepped
away to avoid punishment. The Irishman
staggered in response to two heavy blows,
and the Irishman played groggyt to draw
Fitz. The latter would none of him, how
ever, until he with the same left again hie
the sore mouth, and Fitz's stock rose abovo
par. He staggered as he went to his corner,
and gave up the battle.
Fitzsimmons fought a fair fight amd offered
a flask to his beaten opponent. Fitzsim
mons himself took a hearty pull of the red
stuff, and then congratulated Maher on his
game fighL The cheering for Fitzsimmons
was deafening in the extreme, and the same
merciful methods that marked his fight with
Dempsey were offered again to the Irish
champion. The decorum was something
wonderful, and stamps again the Olympics
great name for fairness and managerial
ability.
Some people commented on Maher's cour
age when he gave up the fight, but it is only
reasonable to think that be " should have
done so when the superior science and
generalship of the man from Australia is
called to mind. ,
Fitzsimmons walked around the ring, re
ceiving the congratulations of his friends.
He certainly proved a wonderful fighter to
night, and his cleverness with both hands
was really marvelous, and it is bat fair to
say that there are few tricks in the ring and
few hits that Fitzsimmons is unacquainted
with.
MAHER NEVER IN IT.
Consensus of Opinion of the Experts Who
Witnessed the Fight London' Interest
in the Meeting What the Best Wit
nesses of the Battlo Think of the Out
come. After the fight the leading sporting men
present, fighters, newspaper men, sports and
others, gathered in the rooms of the Olympic
and discussed the fight and the merits of the
men. Charley Mitchell and Slavin were to
gether. Said Mitchell, with emphasis, when asked
his opinion: "Maher ought to be ashamed
to own himself an Irishman, and Irishmen
ought to be ashamed that he is one of them.
He is the most cowardly fighter, to my
mind, that ever stepped into the ring.
Fitzsimmons, on the other hand, is a won
derfully clever fighter, and a surprise."
"I agree with that opinion," chimed in
Slavin, who was standing near. "I knew
Maher would not win because Madden was
behind him. Fitzsimmons is very clever
and very shifty, and handled himself splen
didly from start to finish. I am more than
pleased at the result because Madden was
behind him. Maher is a man who was built
up and advertised on the achievements of
other people."
Both Mitchell and Slavin agreed in saying
that the fight, in its conduct, was the finest
that they ever witnessed in this or any other
country.
Jim Hall, Fitzsimmons' old enemy, sat in
a front seat and watched the fight with Far
son Davies, When it was over he said: "It
was a very good contest, indeed."
Maher Not Able to Stand FanlshmenL
Beferee Duffy was equally laconic. "I
think Maher lost because he is a fighter
that cannot stand punishment," was the
opinion he expressed of the contest.
Billv Mver. the "Streator Cyclone." said
it was a good fight, and he believed Maher
was a fair fighter. In his opinion, however,
it was Fitzsimmons' fight after the first
round.
Lou Houseman, of Chicago, who saw all
the great fights of a generation, considered
the contest similar to a match between a
selling plater and a stake horse. He did
not think Fitzsimmons should have been hit
at all.
Tom Allen, the ex-champion heavy
weight, had this to say: "Maher was never
in it, from opening to the close. He is
very slow, when compared with Fitz, while
the Australian is a wonderfully clever man,
and especially in avoiding punishment. I
believe that Maher was bothered from the
first round."
Svoriina Life Eepresentative Galliher, of
London, thought the fight was the best reg
ulated tournament he had ever attended.
He sent bulletins of the fight to London,
and got word from England that Fleet
street was packed with people eager for
news. He thinks Fitzsimmons showed sur
prising ability in getting away from Maher,
and said that the Australian won honestly
because he was the better man of the two.
Fitz Tickled Nearly to Death.
Fitzsimmons, as soon as the battle was
over, danced around the ring with delight
The crowd pressed around him and nearly
shook his hands off. He was unmarked,
and as chipper as a bird. When he suc
ceeded in tearing himself away from his
enthusiastic friends he pushed his
way through the crowd and went
to his room, where, without as
sistance he quickly donned his street
clothes. He was ip the best of humor, but
had nothing to say except that he was satis
fied and believed beforehand that hee would
win. He did not remain any length of time
at the club, but, with his party, entered a
carriage and drove up town, promising to
call in the morning for the big end of what
he fought for the purse.
After the fight the gloom in Maher's
quarters was thick enough to cut with a
knife. Maher remained in the ring some
time after the battle was over, while bis
seconds washed the blood from his face.
His corner, after the fight, resembled a
slaughter pen. When he reached his room
he put on his clothes and stuffed a moist
handkerchief into his mouth to stanch
the flow of blood. Madden, Holland,
Tut hill and others were with him, and
they were all very much cast down over the
resulL When the Associated Press re
porter was admitted into the room Madden
said: "Fitzsimmons punched him in one
place all the time. The blood was flowing
from Maher's mouth and was choking him.
In the eleventh round," continned Madden,
"I saw he had no chance to win and told
him he had better quit. It was no use to go
on. If the fight had continued Maher
would have been put out completely, and
there was no need for thaL
Plenty of lima to Get Beady.
"Our man was not in as good condition as
he ought to have been, but of course that is
no excuse now. We had plenty ot time to
get ready, and ought not to complain,"
concluded Madden. "The fight was per
fectly fair. We have no complaint to make,
for it was satisfactorily contested,' and

Maher's upper lip was puffed, out, and he
looked the picture of woe. "I have very
little to say," Maher replied to an inquiry,
"except that Fitzsimmons was too clever
forme. He was very skillful in getting
away. I had him out in the first round,
but the bell prevented me from finishing
him. Fitzsimmons is a nice, clean, gentle
manly fighter."
"Maher broke a blood vessel and the
blood choked him," said Billy Macey.
"He could not go further because he was
unable to breathe. That is the old story.

Maher was miserably handled by his
seconds, while others insisted that ths
Irishman's stubbornness had a great deal to
do with his defeat. It is hardly within the
range of possibility that Maher could have

the men who backed him would have been
pleased to have seen him make the attempt.

Maher's Baekers In the Damps,
Of the 6,000 who witnessed the contest

It was merely a question of time. Fitzsim
mons would have finished him in the next
round. It was a gruesome spectacle to see
Fitz round after round drawing blood from
Maher until the former's left boxing glove
was dyed red. On the other hand, do what
be could, Maher could not touch Fitz. He
stuck to it gamely, and every time he hit
at the Australian he was foiled by a clever
dodge.
Fitz did not turn a hair during the Con
test, and came out of the struggle without a
scratch. The best informed authorities ia
the pugilistic world to night freely 'declare
their opinion that he can whip any man of
his weight in the world.
The preliminary bout between Slavin and
Mitchell did not impress the crowd favora

echo, and seemed to delight 'in hi exhibi

DIVORCED BY DEATH.
A Wealthy Detroit Woman Who Falls In
the Courts, Resorts to a Revolver.
Detroit, March 2. Charles W. Ayers, a
prominent business man, formerly a partner
in the Bichmond-Backus Company, was
shot and fatally injured this evening by his
wife, Annie D. Ayers, at their resi
dence on Bagley avenue. The cause
of the tragedy runs back through a
number of years, but the climax was brought
about through the Supreme Court rendering
a decision dismissing Mrs. Ayers' suit for
divorce, which was first filed last October
and dissolving the injunction restraining
Mr. Ayers from entering the family resi
dence. Mr. Ayers, in consequence thereof, lata
this afternoon went to his house and pro
ceeded to pack up his personal effects. His
daughter remonstrated, and he grew
very excited. Mrs. Ayers soon came in
from the street, and a scene fol
lowed, the details of which have not
been ascertained; but as Mr. Ayers left the
house his wife fired at him with a revolver,
but did not bit him. As he was on the
veranda she fired again, the ball entering
the left breast and lodging in the lungs.
Mr. Ayers was immediately taken to the
hospital but is not expected to live through

As Necessary for the Super as the Actor to
Know His Part.
The veteran actor, Bichings, on one occa
sion at least, found that it was almost as im
portant for a "super" to know his part as
for the chief actors. In the transformation
scene of one of his pieces the flats had to
draw off for the last tableau, and discover
his daughter and himself in apotheosis ia
the clouds. On the occasion referred to he
was a little slower than usual in changing
his dress, and all the performers had taken
their stations for the scene as he came rush
ing on with his daughter to complete the
picture, when, to his horror, he discovered
upon the elevation which tney were to oc
cupy a great, gaunt super in dirty tights,
tin armor and a gilt helmet, already in
apotheosis.
"What are yoa doing there, sir?" gasped
Bichings, as soon as he could find breath.
"Standing in 'ipothisis," responded the
super, who had evidently read the play
bills, and was proud of his position.
"Com-- down, you scoundrel I come down
at once !" ejaculated Bichings, who imag
ined the man was chaffing him.
"The manager told me to stand 'ere ia
this 'ere 'ipothisis," responded the snper,
sturdily, with the air of a Boman sentinel
readv to die at his post.
"But do you know where ivon are, sir?"
shrieked Bichings. "You are in heaven, sir

May or Manning's Heart Mot In Sympathy
With His Tongue.
AiBAHTN. T., March 2. The strange
reticence of the Albany Argus in regard to
Senator Hill, not a single allusion to whom
has appeared upon its editorial page since
the day of the Albany Convention, has
made Mayor Manning, one of its controll
ing spirits, the theme of much speculation.
The young Mayor is a delegate at large to
Chicago from Hill's Albany convention,
and was appointed one of the committee to

It is feared that Mr. Manning's eloquence
for Hill at the convention will not resemble
that of Demosthenes, and that he is yearn
