Tedious Rattle, with Novel Ending.
BUFFALO, March 27.-The prize fight
which occurred to-day near Black Creek,
Canada, about ten miles from this city,
between Arthur Chambers and John

and the light weight championship OF
America, was on the whole tame affair.

pugilistically inclined roughs, blackleGs
and gamblers from Boston, New York,
Brooklyn, Philadelphia and this city, and
u large deputatiOn OF reporters, boarded a
tug in tho harbor at 0 o'clock this morning,
arriving at the point named about 10
o'clock.
One hundred and thirty-seven rounds
were fought. Clark was pretty badly used
up, more, however, from the hard work oi
lodging Chambers and throwing himself
down to avoid punishment, than from the
blows received, although his face showed
signs OF the fight while Chambers left the
field comparatively unhurt.
After having fought l20 rounds, the
spectators began to call for draw or
finish Of some kind, and Higgins Clark s
second, again threw up hesponge (having
done it on the 122d round, to which CLARK
objucted). Clark protested, but finally
Chambers said he would rather give him
one hundred dollars than punish him any
more, and this offer being accepted the
fight closed, after having lasted two hours
and twenty minutes. The parties sopara.
ted at Black Creek. The fight caused con.
siderable excitement here among certain

in the right direction. 1t was estima-

The following letter from Secretary
Sherman TO Treasurer GilHIlan, ut New
York, Is made public:
SIR: As 1t Is desirable TO make pay
ment OF called bonds in mode that will
least disturb the market, you will
draw from the depository banks the pro.
ceeds Of the four per cent bonds only
when required to make payment OF called
bonds, and In proportion for several de.
positories to the amount held by them as
near as may be in sums OF $1,000. The
money in the treasury received for thefour
per cent bonds should be applied to the
payment OF called bonds before such
drafts are made. Payment by called
bonds should be treated as payment in
money, as OF date when 1t would under
the order be required.
