OF THE RING.

hd Finally Arrested In Erie.

EmE, Pa, November l6.-The adyer-
tlsed departure Of the prize-Rghten for
Canada was blind. The Peninsula had
been fixed upon for the fight and arrange
ments made to leave the harbor and turn
back and land the men at Lawrence Bay,
IN indentation OF the peninsula. After the
fight the participants and hackers were to
go to the head Of the Bay, five miles above
the city, where carriages in waiting was TO
drive them to Girard, By some means the
authorities got wind Of this, and at four
o'clock this morning the prize-fghtes were
astonished to find the Revenue cutter,
Perry, with steam up, guns shocked and a
strong force OF mariners aboard. The
mouth oitheharb was blockaded and the
steam yacht was notified that il she refused
to stop when signalled she would be fired
into.
Astrong force OF police and specials were
on hand, and the Chief Of Police and Sher-
III notified all Erie parties presumed to be
going along that they would be arrested
with the prize fighters. At this hour the
managers are said to be negotiating for the
Pearl to take them off to some distant
point, The fight must take place to-day
or 1t Is of altogether.
The pugilists being foiled in their scheme
to fight here boarded the west-bound Lake
Shore train at 10 O'Clock and went over the
line into Ohio, The ring was pitched
about two miles east OF Conneaut, on the
Pennsylvania border, -Four rounds were
fought when an Ohio constable appeared
on the scene and commanded them to de-
sist. The crowd then ran across into
Pennsylvania, where the referee declared
the ighta draw twill probably be con-
cluded somewhere else at another time,
LATER; About o'clock this evening
Holden and White were arrested here on
complaint Of Sheriff Stiles, Of Ashtabula
county, Ohio, and committed to Jail to wait
. requisltion from Governor Foster. After
fighting four rounds near Conneaut, Ohio,
in which White was knocked down several
times and one eye partly closed, the deputy
sheriff Of Ashtabula county endeavored to
arrest them, but was knocked down by
spectator aud the whole crowd skipped
over the line into Pennsylvania, After
walking five miles they caught freight,
which brought them to Erie, Sheriff
Stiles having preceded them on passenger
train. Both men are much Chagrined at
the turn Of affairs and evidently realize the
gravity OF the situation.

A Long Standing aud VsxatIOus Matter
Finally Settled.


ST. Louts, November l6.-A compromise
has been effected between the National
Millers Association and George T. Smith,
OF the Middlings Purifier Company, by
which the law suits brought by the latter
against the most prominent millen OF the
country for alleged intringements OF what
is known as the Cochran patents, have
been settled. One Of the test suits was
won by the millen before the United
States Circuit Court here, and is now dock
eted in the Supreme Court Of the United
States, where It would have been reached
for trial next spring but for the present
compromise. Efforts have long been pend
ing to settle these law suits, which yesterday
eliminated successfully, The S1b-Execu.

Of Jackson, Mich, representing the Mid

The suits which the Purifier Company
brought against the millers in this country
aggregated S36,0O0,0OO, This compromise
puts an end to the trouble so far as mem.
bers ot the National Millers' Association
are concerned, but those outside the associa.

the courts. In addition to the compromise
with thV Consolidated Middlings Purifier

Our Country and Parties.

Our COuntFy and Parties,
CINCINNATI, November l6,-Hon. John
Sherman appeared on Change to-day and
made brief address, in which he alluded
to the dark days Of the past, when he had
spoken to the Cincinnati merchants, and
congratulated them that they were past,
and that now the country had brighter
prospects than this, being at peace, not
only with the rest Of tho world, but among
themselves. Nearlyall tlleasperities which
have divided the people have passed away.
After the reception given to General sher-
man at Atlanta yesterday, surely the DEM
ocrats and Republicans Of Cincinnati
should have no occasion to quarrel. He
knew Of no political issue in Ohio worthy
Of the name! The tariff was used because
Of the difference, but when d. w. Voor.
hees, Of Indiana, and John Sherman, Of
Ohio, stood side by side on this subject he
thought Cincinnati politicians Of different
parties could do the same. Continuing he
spoke Of legislation In the interest oil the
business community, alluding to the law
10 assist the honest creditor in pursuing
the debtor, and to the law for the direction
Of commerce between the States, which, he
said, should be framed with view to the
interests OF business men. Mr.. Sherman
goes to Atlanta in the morning, in com.
pany with Richard Smith, Benjamin Eg.
gleston and q few Others OF this city.

A HORRIBLE FATE.
The Headieas Trunk OF . Young Lady
Found Near Chicago.

EOuuu wear NuIenkos
CHICAGO, November l0.-At 10 o'clock
last evening the headless trunk Of Miss
Ellen Kesner was found at place known
as Wabash Railroad and Eleventh street,
in Englewood. Marks on the person OF
the deceased plainly indicated foul play
She was 20 years Of age, prepossessing, ed.
ucated in the East and was attending the
normal school at Englewood. She was re-
garded as a young lady OF brilliant pros.
poets. Upon learning Of the fact the town
became greatly excited, and bands Of
residents went out in every direction 10
get a clue 10 the murderer. Miss Kesner
has been acting strangely Of late, anil the
common remark was: Something is
preying on Ellen's mind" Last night she
retired as usual, but subsequently rose,
dressed herself, and going to the room OF
the superintendent's wife, complained Of
feeling III. She was sent back by that
lady but instead Of going TO her room
went out on the street.
AT 10 o'clock the body was found se.
Creted in weeds by two students, W. s..
Patrick and W. s. Warner Both arms
and legs were broken, and there were sey.
eral cuts on the body, made with knife.
The head lay some distance from the body,
and parts Of the hands and feet were scat.
tered about in the grass, indicating that the
murderer had deposited his burden hut-
riedly and fed. Over the left nipple there
was a knife wound, but not sufficient to
cause death. The thighs and abdomen
were badly 1iscolored, carrying the i'm
preston Of outrage. Two men, in the
garb Of tramPs, were seen at II o'clock
rapidly walking along Wentworth avenue;
but, though pursued by the excited citi-
zens, they escaped this morning. The Citi-
Eens threaten to deal stimmarily with the
murderer or murderers II found. The po-
lice think the girl was run over by an in
coming train, but the truth Of the matter
Il still in doubt.

A Rumor that Arthur WIN Recommend
American Registry for Foreign Ships.

A RumOF that Arthur WIN Recommend
American Registry for Foreign Ships.
NEW YoRK, November 1G.-The free
ship" men in and about the Maritime Ex.
change appear to have had new reyela-
tion which may be characterized MS Elm
portant, II true" They profess to have an
assurance ION what authority as yet does
not appear that the President, in his
annual message, without absolutely COM
mitting himself to the principle, will ex-
press willingness that the admission Of
foreign bottoms to American registry should
be tried, ii only as an experiment, for
given time.
Should Congress act in conformity with
that recommendation it is said there are at
least dozen Clyde-built steamers not at.
taChed to any regular lines lat present
classified as ocean tramps' which would
be sailing under the stars and stripes with
in thirty days from the passage OF tho en-
abling act, and that we should thus have n
commercial marine all ready to hand.
Shipping people, who ought to know some
thing about it, allege that these vessels can
be run much more economically than the
regular lines, and by that means they
would be able to attrnct at once u large
proportion Of the carrying trade, American
seamen, it is further urged would be
needed for manning these vessels, and In
this way tho present old, but extinct, race
OF Yankee sailors would once more come
to the front.
An effort is to be made at theapproaching
National Tariff Convention TO procure
from that body some sort OF Endorsement
for this proposed modification OF the navi-
CATION laws, on the assumption that the
President Is not in favor Of giving it a fair
trial, but 1t is extremely doubtful whether,
with such earnest opponents as Judge
Kelley and Mr.. John Roach, largely in
tuencing, II not controlling, the convention,
the scheme will succeed Still, II it be
really true that they have won over Mr..
Arthur, they have won an important posi-.
ton even before Congress has assembled.

They were successful, but owing to the
small boat had to make two trips. Re
turning a second time from the wreck the
boat shipped sea, which filled the little
boat full to the thwarts, but rs the crew
used their hats to bale out the water they
were enabled to get safely along side the
Low.wood. The Ben dor probably sank
that night in very heavy gale.
