Cable to the Post-Dispatch: and ew York Worid. .BERLIN, May 14.—Tbe Orient corre- Spondent has just made public the text of a letter written by Publius Lentulus, an officer of Pontius Pilate’s court, to the Roman Emperor, which, as an-' nounced last week, was recently discov- ered in the library of the Lazarist Fath- ers. ‘If this letter proves authentic it may be considered the most important his- tovicai document ever discovered regard- ing the personality of Jesus. It pur- ports to have been written just as Christ was beginning his preaching through Judea. It reads: “T have learned, O Caesar, that you desired some information regarding this virtuous man called Jesus, the Christ whom the people consider a prophet and his disciples regard as the son of God, creator of heaven and earth. “It is a fact that every day one hears wonderful things told of him. To be brief, he makes the dead rise. And he heals the sick. “He is a man of medium size, whose avpearance indicates both great sweet- ness and such an amount of dignity that one feels in looking.at him that he must love~him and at the same time fear him. “His hair, down to his ears, is of the color of ripe walnuts and hangs down on his shoulders; is a light blond and Saws . never seen a man like him, = according to the fashion’ of Nazarines;. his-beard, of the-same color as his halr, is curly, and although got very long, is parted in the middle lik® his hair. “His eyes are rather severe and shine like the sun. It is impossible for any- one to look him long in the face. “When he scolds he inspires fear, but very soon he himself begins to shed tears. Even in his most severe moods he is affable and benevolent. It is said that no one has even seen him laugh, and that he sheds tears very often. Ev- ery one finds that his conversation 15 agreeable and attractive. He is not seen very often in public, and when he ap- pears he carries himself modestly. “His manners are very distinguished; he is even beautiful. It is perhaps be- cause his mother is the best-looking woman ever seen in these parts. “If you wish to see him, O Caesar, if you write me once, let me know and I shall serd him to you. “Although he has never pursued any studies, he is well up in every branch of knowledge. : “He goes around barefooted and with- out head cover, ‘Many people make fun of him when they see him Coming, but as soon 4s they are in his presence tiey tremble and admire him. that “The Hebrews say have they heard nor teachings like those he imparts. ‘‘Many believe that he is God, and oth- ers assert he is thine enemy, O Caesar. ‘These naughty Jews give me much trouble.

In no other way can this great railroad rate problem be solved permanently and effectively. “Agriculture and commerce, from which are derived the entire revenue Ol the Government, has for the past ten years received less than 3 per cent of the entire annual appropriation to in- prove the natural and ecdénomic higil- ways—the rivers and harbors. “The National Congress of Harbors, at! its meeting in Washington last Juan- uary, declared in favor of an appropri- ation of $50,000,000 annually for the ben- efit of commerce from the revenues of the general Government to be expended to improve, in a permanent manner, the navigable waterways and harbors of the nation. Small Sum Hequested, “The wer and .navy, including the pension fund disbursement, receive over 40 per cent of our revénue at the present time. In asking a large sum: for the rivers and harbors, less than 7 per cent is requested for the benefit of the agr'- cultural and commercial interests, from which all the wealth of the nation is derived. “In the past decade, it has been cus- tomary for Congress to make a trien- nial appropriation of $19,251,781, which is a mere ‘bagatelle.’ *’ “At the Washington convention we had 600 delegates, representing 110 commercial organizations amd water- ways and 34 states of ‘the Union.

NO BEER? THEN STOP THE SHIP When thirsty excursionists on the steamboat W. W., above.Alton Sunday night made the discovery that there was no beer on board, they begged to be set ashore six miles from home in order that they might walk back and get some beer and save their lives. The W. W. left Alton at 8 p. m. with 700 excursionists for an up-river trip. Many who went expected to buy beer as usual. Before the boat had gone a mile they discovered their mistake and there was a roar which shivered the timbers of the craft. At first the men could not credit there senses, but after they had searched from the pilot house to the hold without finding a drop of ‘“‘booze’’ the terrible truth dawned on them. With their tongues clattering against their palates they went-to Capt. R. H. Tromley and begged for beer.. He told them there wasn’t any. They hunted up W. M. Savage, manager of the ex- cursion, and got the same kind of in- formation, Wanted to Walk Six Miles. They begged the Captain to ‘‘stop the ship’ at Clifton Terrace; so: that they could walk ‘back’ along the fant ‘of the bluffs six miles to Alton and get beer befa@me itjwas everlastingly too late. but they were told that the boat would not land -untd] the boat returned to Alton. Théy wanted to know what they could do to keep alive that long and the Cap- tain suggested, hesitatingly. that there was some ice water on board. That was too much. The thirsty men were speech- less with disgust. They gave him an awful look and walked away. Wien the boat turned around and headed for home the men. who were famishing for beer beseeched the engi- neer to hurry and get as far forward as they could and took turhs at maintain- ing a lookout for the lights of Alton. When they were sighted the thirsty men lined up at the plank and as soon as it was lowered they ran panting up the hill, headed for the nearest oasis. The W. W. has heen christened the Water Wagon now. It is to run. be- tween Alton and Chautauqua and Graf- ton during the summer and is to bea drv boat at all times. NOT FIGHTING OCTOPUS.

Policeman Takes Up Chase and Makos Arrest in’Broad- way Yard. Running for several blocks and screaming as she ran, Miss Delia Mur- phy caused the capture of one of two men alleged to have entered the home jof her brother-in-law, Policeman John Hurley of 3104 South Seventh street. The front door of the Hurley home, cast in shadow by a billboard, was easy of access to the duplicate key men. Aft- er they once gained entrance they were confronted by Miss Murphy, who Stamped her foot and exclaimed: “What do you men want here?’ The men fled at sight of her, and the exciting chasé began. Mrs. Hurley was in her room Sunday night, and Miss Murphy, the only other accupant of the flat, was sitting in the unlighted parlor on the lower floor. She noticed fwo men stop and look at the house, The men passed along to.the corner. A few minutes later they ‘came back. Miss Murphy heard a ring at the bell of the upper flat. No one answered. Then the lower bell was-rung. Miss Murphy did not answer the door. Confronts Them in : Hall. Presently she heard a “‘click-click”’ in the door. A key seemed to,be turning in the lock. Then the door opened softly. She heard men creeping stealth- ily down the hall. When the men were opposite the par- lor door leading into the hall: Miss Mur- phy threw the door open, stamped her foot and demanded to know what the men wanted. There was no answer. They turned quickly and hrurried out of the door. One ran around the house and: was lost to view; the other ran north onthe pave- ment to the corner and east on-Arsenal street to Broadway, where he turned into a yard, Miss Murphy followed and her screams were heard for blocks. Patrolman Grady of Street Station heard the outcry. followed to the . Broadway yard found a man hiding in a shed. The prisoner was taken to the station. He said he. was Frank Dunn, a collector. Miss Murphy says he is the man she chased. The man who escaped is described as 5 feet @% inches tall, with->a sandy mustache and wearing a black slouch hat. é BABY ELK CAUSE the Wyoming He and

Old Napoleon Couldn't Under- stand Why He Was Kept From Mate. Napoleon, the eccentric old elk at the Forest Pak Zoo, who has been in one of His Most unapproachable and gloomy moods during the last two weeks, is now in a most genial’ humor. As a result, the other elk and deer at the park, who have a most wholesome fear of ' Napoleon, are breathing easily once more. Tne trouble was all about Napoleon's mate, Josephine, Napoleon and Joseph- ine had a quarrel a month ago. The keepers at the zoo didn’t know exactly what it was all about, but the next day neither would recognize or speak to the other. E Two .weeks ago Napoleon evidently , made up his mind that he was in the ,; wrong. At any rate he went over te | the corner of the deer and elk reser- , vation, where his wifie was talkine |with several of her admirers, and aft- (er standing first on one foot and then on the other, in a most sheepish man- | ner,. said that he was sorry. Jose- |phine was haughty at first. And the other elk and deer looked in dumb amazement at the proud old Napoleon, who was evidently most embarrassed. Josephine Cried a Little. But, after giving her spouse suffi- cient time to realize how really silly he was, Josephine said that his apol- ogy was accepted. And then she crieq a little after the manner of all:fem- inines. And Napoleon said she shouldn't do that because it hurt him, Then the deer and elk, who had been standing around, galloped off and spread the good news to the others, And Napoleon and Josephine told each other that the course of true love never did run straightaway and that they needn't worry about the disagreement at all. But, sad to relate, the keepers of the reservation stepped in just when the two wanted to see most of other. The day after the reconciliation Jos»phine was taken to a little fenced- off place in one corner of the ground and Napoleon was told not to bother her. Napoleon stamped around in rage, and the keepers. say that they are quite sure he swore softly to himself. But the keepers were obstinate and Napoleon couldn't do any more than hold a sort of long-distance conversa- tion with Josephine across the fence. And Josephine seemed to grow very tire’? and didn’t seem inclined to talk. So, gradually. Napoleon got very sore again. And he refused to go near his wife at all. having decided that she was as much to blame as anybody. Sunday morning, however, he went over to the fenced-in place resolved to find out the truth about the whole at- fair, because his heart was troubling him much. He nearly fainted when he looked over the fence. There was a little elk with long, wob- bly legs and great big eyes staring up at him. And Josephine was lying on the ground beside the little elk, looking very happy and contented. Of course, Napoleon then understood everything, and said again to his wifie that he was sorry he had made such a.fool of himself. And when the keep- ers let him inside the fenced-in place, he went ‘over and licked his little son on the shoulder. ; Sunday afternoon, when the little elk was allowed to walk along the edge of the wire fence where the visitors in the park could see him, old Napoleon strode up and down beside him, with his chest visibly ee Sree cen tryin to impress U ev one n sight that it wan his own offspring they were calling ‘‘cute.’

CHARGE OF “LIAR” NOT BACKED UP CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE. e~--eSeeeraSer Sere SEE Men Whose Veracity 4 Roosevelt Attacked. The President has said that many a man is a liar. He used the term freely, sometimes in all its baldness, and at other times as he did in the case of ex-Sen- ator Chandler, whose statement he designated as “unqualifiedly false.”"” These are some of the men he has accused of lacking in veracity: Henry M. Whitney of Boston, who, he said, lied about a tariff conversation with him. John F. Wallace, formerly chief engineer of the Panama canal commission. Ex-Senator William E. Chand- ler, now president of the Span- ish Treaty Claims Commission. Herbert W. Bowen, former Minister to Venezuela, whom he rebuked for making charges against ‘‘Loamis, acting.’ Alton B.

He signed it. It was the basis for the statement I made in the Senate on Saturday, reciting the ef- forts of the President to form an al- liance with the Democrats and empha- sizing the perfidious manner in which he deserted his allies. “Tl shall not give out all of Mr. Chand- ler’'s statement. I shall not use my jammunition until I know what I am shooting at. If the President denies any other part of my statement or any other statement made to me by Mr. Chandler, I shall give out that part of Mr. Chand- me

ler’s report on his conferences with the President that covers that particular | denial. | “This part of his statement refers )specifically to the President's. designa- ; tion of Senators Knox, Foraker and Spooner, which Senator Lodge got a de- nial for over the telephone on Saturday. Tt is the part on which the President called Mr. Chandler a Har. In it Mr. Chandler goes at greater length into this

eonversation with the President than [ did in my synopsis in the_ second- hard dealings with the President through Messrs. Chandler and Moody.” Senator Tillman has nothing to say, so far as he is himself concerned, for he does not consider himself a party to the transaction, except as the publicity agent: for the President put the ques- tion of veracity squarely up to Chand-

ler and Chandler accepted the gauntlet, thus eli ninating everybody else.

IMAS, KIRKSEY IS GRANTED DWVORCt Judge Finds No Difference Be- tween Drunkenness and Intoxication. There is no difference between geét- ting drunk and getting intoxicated, ac- cording to Circuit Judge Hough. He granted a divorce Monday to Mrs. Anna C. Kirksey of 4828 Page boulevard from Walter P. Kirksey, who denied that he ever got drunk, but admitted that he sometimes became intoxicated. At the trial of the case two weeks ago, Kirksey, who is a clerk in. the offices of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas Railroad, strongly denied that he had ever been-drunk in his life, but con- fessed that he had on some occasions been intoxicated. He defined drunken- ness as the condition in which a man has forgotten where he lives and what car will take him there, and said he was always able to get home. He had a lot of his associates, who made the same fine distinction, to testify that they had never seen him ‘‘drunk.”’ In deciding against Kirksey Monday, Judge Hough said: : “The plaintiff alleged that her hus- band had been a drunkard for a year. The evidence on this was conflicting. The defendant brought his fellow clerks in a railroad office to testify to his con- duct during the day, but their testi- mony did not contradict that of wit- nesses for the plaintiff as to his be- havior during the night. May Be Sober Next Day. “IT take it to be a vhysiological fact, of which judicial notice may be taken, that a man may be intoxicated at night and sober the next day, and that this ‘may continue for a long period of time, depending on the physiéal constitution of such a periodocial inebriate. “Unimpeached testimony was to the effect that the defendant was drunk, or intoxicated, as he called it, twice a week for a year, but, even conceding that the charge of habitual drunkten- ness is not sustained, the evidence does amply establish the fact that the de- fendant drank almost constantly to ex- cess and that his conduct at times whea hs was drinking was tuch as to make the condition of any sensitive-and self- respecting woman Intolerable.’’* Mrs. Kirksey was given the custody of. the daughter and was allowed $15 a month alimony for herself and $10 a month for the support of the child.

Dislocation of artificial teeth does not constitute grounds for damages according to a ruling made by Justice Spaulding Monday morning in the case of Teddy McConners, a chauffeur, who brought suit against the United Railways Co. for damages. McConners contended he had sus- taiied a great loss because his teeth were dislocated. The fact that the teeth were a part of a bridgework in the mouth may have caused the de- cision against the chauffeur. McConners lives at 4141 West- minster Place and was riding in an automobile when it was struck in front of 4156 Olive street. He was bruised and hurt and two teeth were knocked out. He began suit for $500. McConners took an appeal. NO FOOD FOR 3 WEEKS, After taking whisky to alleviate suf- fering from asthma, Albert Kern is at the City Hospital, afflicted with what the doctors call an “aleoholic #tomach.”’ He has not taken solid food for three weeks and is in a serious condition.

Later he went to the City Hosp#tal and he was found to be suffering from the “alcoholic stomach.’ His condition rapidly grew worse and he was moved to a surgical ward Monday to have his stomach examined by the X ray. bs ee

BRIDGEPORT, Conn., May 4.—Four magazines in the testing grounds of the Union Metallic Cartridge Co. exploded éarly this morning, the concussion shaking the whole city and causing great alarm among many persons, who believed that there had been an earth- quake, Windows were shattered and in many houses crockery fell from shelves, but no serious damage was reported. There were two explosions, with but a scond’s interval, and a large amount of powder was destroyed. So far as known, no person was harmed. ‘ sons clad only in their night garments fled to the streets, believing that the earthquake recently predieted had taken place. Many women became hysterical, and it was some time before they were reassured. Four private residences escaped with- out brdken windows. The damage seems to be confined entirely to broken glass, and already the Cartridge company has given notice that property owners will be compensated for damage of this na- ture. Immediately after the explosion the city was flooded with inquiries from other places for particulars of the. dis- turbance, which resembled an earth- quake. From all parts of the State came word that the shocks were felt with force enough to awaken people from sound slumber. The four magazines which exploded contained 25,000 pounds of powder each. None of the company’s other buildings was damaged and the four adjacent magazines were unharmed. The cause of the explosion is not known. Most of the plate-glass windows in the city were shattered, and the Isola- tion, a small structure half a mile away, was wrecked. A panic occurred among the inmates of the town farm, but no one was hurt. The m ines were lo- cated on Success Hill, in the northern part of, the city.

The explosion was felt in many parts of the State. 7 & i a What Hunyadi Janos Is The Origin of the Name In iw gph fe in the 15th Century, there lived a wonderful man—a great soldier and wise statesman—who was principally instrumental in driving back the “Unspeakable Turk” and keeping him out of Hungary at the pe- riod when bands of these marauders were ravaging most of Europe. By his victories in war and peace this man endeared himself to the people and gained a great and permanent place in the Nation’s history. His name was HUNYADI JANOS, or John Hunyadi, as it would be in English. To the present day, in the affections of all Hungarians, he holds the place of one of their greatest national Heroes. Is it strange then that they should wish to give this honored name to one of their most natural products—the famous Mineral Laxative Water from the Springs at Buda Pest? The unfailing value of this water as a sure and gen- tle Natura] Laxative has gained for it a world-wide reputation, greater even than that enjoyed by old John Hun- yadi in Hungary. A bottle costs but a trifle and contains many doses. One dose; % a tumblerful ( k on aris- ing, slightly warmed for best results), will within an hour move the bowels gently but copiously. At all Druggists. Ask for it by the full name— HUNYADI JANOS.

Proof of Use of Drugs Lacking, Except for Dying Statement. aaa

One arrest has been made in connec- tion with the murder and robbery of John Hickey in Madison, and the au- thorities expect to arrest two or three other suspects within 24 hours. The man now under arrest is Tony Jarbic, bartender at King George's 8a- loon, where Hickey has seen drinking late Wednesday afternoon. Jarbic was taken into custody Sunday at the sa- loon and is held on suspicion, pending the Coroner’s inquest. Jarbic has en- gaged a lawyer, and by his advice has refused to make any statement. The authorities say the evidence against Jarbic is circumstantial, but sufficiently strong to require explana- tion. It is certain that Hickey was in King George's saloon and that he drank beer there for which he refused to pay. He was seen by a policeman who did not think the’ circumstances warranted an arrest. This was Wednesday afternoon. Early the next morning Hickey was found in an alley unconscious. He was taken to the calaboose, where he died within a few hours. Though he is known to have had $500 a few hours before his death, only a penny was found in his pockets when he was arrested, Seen Dividing Money, Coroner Streeper and Deputy Coro- ner Voorhees say they have proof that the bartender was seen dividing a con- siderable sum of money with other men in the saloon Wednesday night. They want him to tell where and how he got the money, and to whom he was paying it. Dr. W. H. Grayson of Granite City held an autopsy on Hickey’s body Sun- day. He found evidence that the man had been sandbagged. There was 4 bruise across the side of the head that was sufficiently extensive to have caused unconsciousness and perhaps death. The skin was not not broken and the conclusion was reached that the blow was inflicted with a sandbag or a

lead pipe covered with cloth. This blow caused death by concussion of the brain. Dr. Grayson was unable to say wheth- er Hickey had been drugged. This could not be told without a chemical analysis, and it is possible that a drug was used which was absorbed. But the evidence of sandbagging is regarded as sufficient proof that murder was committed. Coroner Streeper has postponed the in- quest until 7 p. m. Monday. The inquiry will be held at Voorhees’ undertaking rooms and all who are supposed to know anything ubout the affair have been summoned. Mrs. Hickey, widow of the murdered man, is at the home of a friend in East St. Louis. She is too ill to leave the house. and arrangements for the funeral of her husband have not been made. Hickey was traveling overland to Oklahoma and carried $00, with which he planned to buy a farm there. One of his friends in Madison saw his roll of bills, and advised him to deposit the money in a bank. His last words were an expression of regret that he had not taken this advice, and indicated that he had been drugged.

ADMIRAL SLAIN BY ASSASSIN Kuzmich Stabbed in the Back With, Dagger at Govern- ment Works. DISLIKED BY WORKMEN

Refused to Allow Them to Par- ticipate in May Day Celebration. ST. PETERSBURG, May. 14.—Vice- Admiral Kuzmich, commander of the port, who was very unpopular with the workmen, was assassinated here today by workmen whose Mayday demonstra- tion he had attempted to stop. The Admiral was killed at the new admiralty works, a Government institu- tion where most of the 2000 men em- ployed there reported for duty at 5 o'clock this morning. They wanted im- mediately to march out in a body and celebrate the Russian Mayday, but final- ly agreed to work till 2 o'clock in the afternoon. The Admiral, however, made a speech to the men, saying that he could not agree to their leaving work at 2 o’cloc, and the matter was left open. At about 9:30 a. m., according to an officer who was at the gate of the works, the Admiral was emerging from a small shop in the works when a workman, who had been concealed around the corner of the _ building, leaped on Kuzmich from behind and drove a long dagger into his back. The Admiral fell forward on his face, which was badly cut by stones, and died immediately. / The assassin fled into a large forge, where he was lost among the men employed there. Vain Search for Slayer. The works were promptly surround- ed by troops and police, but the search for the murderer was unavail- ing, his comrades professing ignor- ance of his identity. The police say_that it is ev ident that the assassination of the Admiral had been planned in advance. The dagger which was found on the spot was con- cealed round a stick like a sword cane. Among the workmen are many former sailors and revolutionists. Kuzmich had a bad reputation among the workmen, being regarded as hard and despotic.

CHASED POLICEMAN WH -BALL BAI Grocer’s Atrest for Alleged “Lid Lifting’ Made Un- der Difficulties. The arrest of William Tiepelmann, who runs a grocery store and saloon at 5449 St. Louis avenue, was accomplished Sunday morning under difficulties and after one policeman had been put to flight by a woman armed with a base- ball bat. Tiepelmann was taken to the Mounted District Station and charged with violating the Sunday-closing law. About 8:3 Sunday morning Policeman Tully, in citizen's clothes, asked if he could buy a drink of whisky. Witnesses agree on this point, but they disagree as to the result of the inquiry. Tiepelmann, his wife, Mrs. Mary Beel, his sister-in-law, and Mrs. Christina Schaefer, his mother-in-law, say that no liquor was sold to Tully. “When Tully entered the store the

NEWS OF THE

A worth while for her to do it. She appeared at the Olympic last night “Bweet Nell of Old Drury,” the play in which our own Ada Rehan didn’t do any too well, and scored one of the most genuine hits of the season. This is because she is an excellent comedian, vital with a fine gayety and buryancy recalling the best lighter work of Adelaide Neilson of 2% years ago, and also because, underneath the temperamental joyousness of her art, there is a deep seriousness which seems to demand her highest effort at every moment of her work on the stage. Miss Stewart is undeniably an admirable actress, 80 very good, indeed, that it will be astonishing if she doesn’t make the London hit for which she is now headed and come back to New York with all the glamor of an English success enveloping her name. For she's not go- ing to play in New York this season—she’s just making a preliminary Amer- joan trial in certain other American cities preparatory to a London appear- ance. Most of us have seen ‘‘Sweet Nell of Old Drury.’ It's a sparkling story With a very vital central character, but this certral character of Nell Gwynn didn’t sult Ada Rehan precisely because the American actress failed some- what in the soubrette phase of the role—the orange girl phase—in the story's first part. Here, however, Miss Stewart is excellent—and she is even better Jater on when Nell Gwynn, the poor orange girl, becomes Nell Gwynn the great Drury Lane star and favorite of King Charles II. The Australian ac- tress with the beautiful face and marvelous voice satisfies the soul’s expecta- ton of Nell, and last night's house told her so through the medium of almost overwhelming applause. Miss Stewart is well supported by the Australian company which Manager Musgrove has gathered around her. The best work in support was done by Mr. Harcourt Beatty, as King Cherles; Mr. James Lindsay, as Sir Roger Fair- fax; Mr. Albert Gran, as Lord Jeffreys, and Misses Dora and Marie Rignold, as Lady Olivia Vernon and Lady Castlemaine, respectively. The Lord Jef- frey of Mr. Gran is somewhat overstrained along melodramtaic lines now and then, however. > ae

POOL MAKES GOTHAM | MECCA OF PUGILISTS

—~+e

Magistrate’s Decision Which Makes Boxing Legal Before Members of Clubs on Whose Premises Matches Are Contested, Brings the Mitt Men to the Great White Way. Special to the Post-Dispatch. NEW YORK, May § 14.—Magistrate Pool, sitting in the Jefferson Market Court, New York, drove the wedge that makes 20-round glove contests pos- Sible in that city. The accommodating magistrate, in citing the law in_ the case, said there can be no violation of the law provided the spectators are members of the club holding the fight. The case was brought before the mag- istrate by the prearranged arrest of Joseph Dunn and Harry Phillips, a pair of preliminary fighters to the Schreck-Hart windup at the recent Madison Square Garden boxing show. After listening to the arguments he declared that as only those who had purchased cards of membership in the club had been admitted there had been no violation of the law and discharged the two pugilists. His decision is the first of its kind in New York since the repeal of the Horton law, and as the police commis- sioners were represented in court it is possible Pool's favorable decision will stand. This is the best piece of news that has been dished out to the fight- ers in years and all roads, for the next few months, will lead to Manhattan Island. Regarding the membership of clubs, that will be overcome by mak- ‘ing every fight fan, with the price, a member, and as the dyed-in-the-wool fight follower can dig up money to see a scrap quicker than for anything else, members can be manufactured at the raie of one per minute. Fights Past and to Come. The club which secured the favorable decision held its first fistic entertain- ment on the night of May 3, with heavy- weights Schreck and Hart as the star attraction. The bouts were limited to four rounds, too short for decisive work for sume big fellows, with the result that the main bout, according to some reports, was unsatisfactory. Schreck, when he returned to Chicago, stated the bout pleased the management and that ‘he had Hart on the verge of a decisive defeat in the third round and that the Louisville fighter hung on MIlike grim death in the last round to stay the limit. This club at present is arranging to pull off a number of 10-round contests and has matched Joe Gans and Willie Lewis for its next entertainment. This, should it take place, will be Gans’ first fight in New York since May 2, 1900, when he knocked out Dal Hawkins be- fore the Broadway A. C. in three rounds. That was one of the hardest and fastest fights I ever saw. as it was a continual session of slugging from the moment they put up their hands until Dal went to the canvas for the count. It was either man’s fight every minute they were at it. both going down repeatedly and arising staggering. It was one of the few honestly fought battles that ‘took place in New York in the final months of the Horton law, which was repealed and went into effect on Sept. 1 of that vear. Fakes of the Old Days. The last two important fights under the law were between Joe Walcott and Tommy West and Jim Corbett and “Kid’’ McCoy, and were jobs pure and simple. The Walcott-West job was ulled off on Aug. . Those in the now were betting all kinds of money and.at any old odds that West would win and that during the fight when Joe was beating Tommy to a frazzle. At the end of the eleventh round it was any odds Walcott would win, but when time was called for round 12 Joe did not answer to the call, claiming he had injured him arm, so Referee Charley White awarded the fight to West, while the sure thing sports ‘“‘cashed.’’ Three nights later those clever mitt artists, Jim Corbett and ‘Kid’? McCoy, entered the ring at Madison Square Garden, and with the assistance of the gang that framed up the job. separated the unsophisticated sports from _ their greenbacks by faking it for five rounds, the “Kid” feigning a knockout in that session. “And why not?’ they said. “The jig is may as well make it a getting the money.’”’ It was a fitting finale to a corrupt pugilistic regime, and it is_ sincerely hoped the clubs that will profit by Mag- istrate Pool's decision will not follow in the footsteps of their predecessors, up and we good one by

New York is one of the best fight towns in the country, and if the ciubs that intend embarking in the business will not attempt to rake in all the money in sight in one night the game should boom, O’Hourke Again in Action. The Pool decision, as it will hereafter be termed, stirred up all the old fight lovers and some of them, it is said, have requested Tom O’Rourke to organize 4 club to pul! off 20-round bouts. One re- port from New York reads as follows: “Since the decision which made boxing legal, when run under the strict club plan, O'Rourke has been in receipt of ‘many letters from people who were fa- miliar with the manner in which he con- ducted his bouts in the old days of the Horton law. Scores of sporting men wh» delignt in seeing boxers perform enireated Mr. O'Rourke to enter the lo- cal field and, with a clubhouse which would be a permanent home, where members could have the advantage not enjoyed by members of other clubs— that of training in their own quarters, cater to champions and give bouts which would be worth the large assess- ment fees they were willing to pay.” It cannot be possible that those who were familiar with the manner in which O'Rourke conducted his bouts are clam- oring for Tom to re-enter the field, as a great number of the fights he pulled off left a dark-brown taste in the mouths of the lovers of square sport. Probably those who benefited by some of Tom's fights are desirous to see him cut into the game, with expectations they will get the right ‘‘dope’’ when there is “something doing.’’ Tom says none but champions or men of absolute- ly high class will appear at his club, but he fails to state where the crackerjack

pugilists will come from, as there are only a few in sight at present. - wr BASEBALL EPITOME. NATIONAL LEAGUE.

Loss of Twelve-Inning Contest Imbues Cardinals With Do-or-Die Spirit. TENNEY BACK IN GAME

Manager - Captain’s Presence Lends Encouragement to Men From Boston. Special to the Post-Dispatch. LEAGUE PARK. May 14.—Today’s game was the third of the Boston-Car- dinals series, and considerable interest was attached to the contest on account of each of the teams having won one game. 2 McCloskey’s men were considerably distraught at the loss of Sunday's con- test after the long session of 12 innings, and there was a do-or-die spirit evident among the Cardinals in the preliminary practice that boded ill for the Bean- eaters. Fred Tenney, who does not play ball On Sunday, was back on the initial sack for Boston, and his presence in the game lent his players considerable encouragement, for Tenney is not only the manager-captain of the players from the home of Emerson, but also their premier player. Despite the partly cloudy weather, there was a fair-sized crowd present when play ball was called. The line-up: BOSTON— Bridwell ss, CARDINALS— Slattery c, Reckley 1b : Smoot rf. Stroebel 2b.

College Collations The showing of the Christian Brothers’ College nine in its game with the Country Club was the sur- prise of the season. St. Louis Uni-

versity had defeated the Purple and Gold so easily and the club men had! beaten Washington and Smith so de- cisively that the College boys did not seem to have a chance against their older and more experienced adver- saries. The result of the game proved differently, however, the Cc. B. C. players winning on their merits aft- er receiving the hot end of several decisions. The College appears to have a good boxman at last in Ned Smith, who officiated for the big team for the first time. This youngster has terrific speed and is a cool and confi- dent chap. With him in the box next Saturday, C. B. C. should find _little

trouble in defeating the weak hitting St. Louis University nine. St. Louis has no excusé to offer for its surprising defeat at the hands of St. Charles last Sunday. No team can win without a hard-hitting outfield, | but the Blue and White guardians! cannot even field, with the exception of Robinson. al clever game.and with a little more sticking and some field support would have won easily. The McKinley players, who were so decisively beaten by Western Saturday, were very much impressed with the showing of the soldier boys, the opin- ion being prevalent among them that Smith would have a difficult time to encompass the defeat of the Alton ag- gregation, Krutzsch, McKinley’s star athlete, who was unable to compete in the annual field day games of the South Side institution, Friday at the C. B. C. eee, received Moser nicely Satur- ay.

He has sued Charles Carrillon of 28 Union Market’ for the sum, alleging that acting under instruction from Carri]l- lon’s foreman he caught his hand in a meat grinder and the thumb was cut off. The case was originally brought before Justice Robertson, but was transferred to Justice Cronin’s court Monday on a change of venue. It was set for May 25.

When I reached Brown's chophouse I was accosted by a tall, shabby-looking chap, who looked like he had seen better days, and who had the smootnest routine of wise pat- ter that I had ever had pulled on me. “After soaring to the highest flights of oratory, with the full complement of gestures, he explained he didn’t want money, but was fairly dying to put on the feedbag. Just for a joke I invited him into Brown's for breakfast, and you talk about a person running the gamut of culinary endeavor; he had them all tacked to the wall. When we had finished the garcon brought a check calling for $4.50, and I delved into my moleskins for my bank roll. Empty as could be. Then I remembered that I had changed clothes that morning, and in my hurry had neglected to change my money and keys from one pair of trousers to the other. : “I frisked myself_all over, and didn't have the price of a’souvenir postal card. The tall party became wise. and after a lot of hemming and hawing pulled out a bundle of baled kale that you couldn't put in a baggage wagon. He skinned off a five, told the boy to buy a race- horse with the change, and looked at me with a sneer. I explained the situ- ation and told him if he would jump in .& carriage with me and drive over to the theater, I would get the money, pay him for what the breakfast cost, and also the carriage fare. He shook his head with a wise look, much as one would who had been spurned twice in the place, and said: “‘I'll buy you a breakfast, but I’m if I buy you a_ cab.’”’—Buffalo Evening Times.

Bull’s Isle Are Beginning to Take Up the Sport of America ; 4 ae " + P 2 s na se o% 7 om se 3 * ‘ ~ in Very Serious Fashion. Special Cable to the Post-Dispatch and and New York Worid. LONDON, May 14.—Americans who have noticed that a fresh-movement !s on foot to popularize the game of base- ball in Great Britain may not have taken it with any great seriousness, several previous attempts to make Brit- ishers “play ball’ having failed igno- miniously. The recent activity in this direction, however, bas seemed from the first to mean business. Interviews with promi- nent athletic authorities make it appear as if baseball is on the point of becom- ing firmly established in this country. In fact, many former cricket enthusl- asis predict the time is surely coming when the faster American game will delinitely have taken its place. A big meeting of sportsmen has just been held at the Charterhouse Hotel in London at which the sole topic of con- versation was the introduction of base- ball in England, and in order to gain further information as to the progress of the movement I called on a large importer of American sporting goods and had an interview with the manager, Orders $5000 Stock. “It is undoubtedly true,”’ he said, ‘that American baseball has come to stay this time.'We have just cabled to the United States orders to the extent of $6000 for baseball outfits, and indications lead us to believe that there is to be a tremend- ous revival of baseball throughout En- gland. The principal organizer of this movement is Nelson P. Cook, who is well known in sporting circles. He is meeting with encouragement on every hand. : ‘There are no less than eight teams organized. Some of these are already playing regulation American baseball. Among them are the teams of Totten- ham, Fulham, Woolwich, West Ham, Brentford, Chelsea, Milwall, and last, but not by any means least, the Nonde- scripts of London, the last named made up principally of men on the staffs of various London newspapers.

LIVERPOOL TEAM WINS CHAMPIONSHIP Everton Club Takes the Cup Tie Final of the English Football Leagues. The English Association football Cup Tie Final was decided on April 21 at Crystal Palace. Everton (Liverpool) succeeded in defeating Newcastle by one goal to nil. Seventy-five thousand and fifty-eight persons passed the turnstile and the game was a tremendous success financiaHy. Every mode of vehicle could be seen on the roads that led to the grounds and the crowds started to come in three hours before the game. Experts voted the game a poor exhi- bition, but this was no doubt due to the tension under which the players labored. Both teams have played far better foot- ball during the season, particularly the losers.
