MBW YOBK M'COY WITH EASE. The "Kid" Itns No Trouble In Itnmtllng Jack Ito-uer. Piiii.Adklphia, June 1. Tho sivrotiud glove contest between "Kid" McCoy and John Boner, of Summit Hill, the coal region wonder, took place at tbe Arena club room last night. About 5,000 people were present. 1 he first round opened with Uoner swing ing wildly for the fsoe and body, the "Rid" keeping out of his reach. A great deal of sparring wm done, with not a clean blow daring the round. The second round was repetition of the first, Boner rushing at Mc Coy with no effect. No clean blows were landed in this round. In the third nnd fourth Boner did all the forcing, but did no effective hitting, while MeCoy occasionally jabbed him in tho fare with his left. In the fifth the "Kid" seemed to play horse with Boner, hitting him when ever he pleased, but not punishing him to any extent. In the last round, however, he n ent at bim in true stylo, jabbing his loft re peatedly in his face and landing an occasional body blew. Boner fought back wildly and otdy landed a few times with any force. lioner jabbed his adversary hard, when he realized he could not win. This spurred McCoy on and the punishment be adminis tered to Boner wis frightful. The coal region lad, however, was in a condition to take It and when time was called McCoy had failed to knock him out. The referree de cided the contest a draw. At ICepehlnshl's Arnmle Cnr.

THE QUAY COUNTY BILL IS KILLED Senator Thomas Refutes tho Charge That the State is Practloally Bankrupt, and Quotes BtatlstlM to Prove Ills Statement Three Bills Are Vetoed by the Governor. Ilarrlaburg, June 1. In the senate last evening Mr. Orady Introduced a concurrent resolution asking the gov ernor to Inform the legislature of the financial condition of the state, and If there should he a deficit hf Is asked to suggest subjects of taxntlon. Mr. Thomas asked permission to re cord his vote on the forpgolnfr resolu tion in the affirmative. This permis sion was granted, wherr-upon Mr. Thomas said: "It has been heralded far and near that the state of Pennsyl vania Is practically bankrupt. This statPment Is not founded on facts. It Is true, however, that there Is a deficit, but It is no fault of this legislature. Some years ago the state was In debt $11,000,000. At that time but $1,600,000 was appropriated to public schools. To day the public schools get $6,500,000. From 1886 to 1898 the state has met several extraordinary expenditures, in cluding $1,000,000 for the Johnstown flood sufferers. For new buildings on Capitol hill $226,600 lias been spent. and $600,000 was appropriated to re move the Islands In the Delatvare river. Notwithstanding this the state's debt is now less than $000,000. We can wipe out this deficit either by taxing proper subjects or by borrowing. The governor ought to suggest proper sub jects for taxation, and as soon as he does we will be ready to act. Until then our hands are tied." The governor sent to the senate hip veto of the bill increasing the salaries of the deputy sheriffs, save the real estate deputy, in the sheriff's office ot Philadelphia from $1,000 to $3,600. In veto messages sent to the house the governor declined to approve the bill allowing schoolhouses to be used for religious purposes.. He also vetoed the bill for special' taxes fgr street sprinkling and street cleaning. When the Quay county bill came up a motion that It be dropped from the calendar was adopted without a dis senting vote. May lfnf'n'o7n"iiiTo"Strlko. Alloona, Pn., June 1. -The Pennsyl vania Railroad company having noti fied the coal operators In the West moreland and Clearfield districts that the oompany would srpebt a reduction of from 86 to 80 cents' a (on for West morelanJ coal and from 76 to 86 cents a ton for mountain and Clearfield coal to take effect on June T, a number ot operators came here yesterday and con- rerrea with Superintendent of Motive Power CaBanave on the subject. The operators say that a reduction in the price of coal would necessitate a re duction in wages of miners, and there by engender a strike.
