STILL BUYING TICKETS.
Postponed Glove Contest Doesn't
Affect the Seat Sale.
The postponement of the Smith
Judge glove contest to next Monday
night has made no difference In the
sale of seats. On the contrary the
seats reserved during yesterday num
bered six times as much as the num
ber returned by persons who had pur
chased them for last night.
At Loftus nnd Melvln's drug stoie
where the tickets are on sale, It was
stated that not a ticket was returned
except by persons who would not bo
In Scranton next Monday night or who
had secured reser.ved seats for fi lends.
The sale of seats contimed bilsk
during the day und It Is a safe pre
diction that soon there will not be an
unsold ticket, excepting those being
held in reserve for out-of-town people
Yesterday's New York Telegraph con
tains the following statement by Tom

will be between Shnrkey nnd Cotbett
