NEw YORK, May l4.-Fully 10000 peo-
pie witnessed the Sullivan and Mitchell
sparring match this evening. In the first
round Sullivan knocked Mitchell down
twice and was himself knocked down once.

knocked down, going off the platform once
and hurting his leg. In the third round
Mitchell went down in Sullivan's corner.
The second time he was knocked down on
the ropes and failed TO come TO time. The
battle was awarded 10 Sullivan. Mitchell
was entirely overmatched.
Notwithstanding the unpleasant weather,
an immense crowd gathered in Madison
Square Garden tonight to witness the con-
test. Mitchell was introduced as the
champion OF England. Holders OF 81
tickets were. admitted at the Fourth avenue
entrance, while holders Of s. tickets en-
tered at the Madison avenue door. There
were about 1000 persons inside
the building, and the boxes
were filled with prominent club men
and politicians. Roscoe Conkling and
Charles A. Dana had front seats in the
space reserved near the platform for the
press. There was great applause when
Sullivan appeared upon the stage in fight
ing costume. Mitchell was also applauded!
Before time was called Captain Williams
cautioned the two men. Work was earnest
from the start.
THE FIGHT IN DETAIL. i
Sullivan went viciously at Mitchell and
the latter, in getting out Of his way
fell twice. Watching his op.
portunity Mitchell got in quick
blows and Sullivan went down. He got up
and closed with Mitchell, and there was
some close fighting. until time was called,
and the men were ordered to
break. In the third round
the excitement was intense. Mitchell
got in some sharp body blows on Sullivan,
but the latter delivered his blows with
great directness and force, and the Eng.
lishman was twice knocked down. The
third time he rose quite gio2gy, when
Capt. Williams rushed upon the stage and
ordered them to stop, b

Chicago, and that new dens are being
constantly opened. lie asserts that the

Flannery as Secretary. INN
The first business was the appointment
Of a Committee on Credentials. Reports
were then received from the various mines,
all Of which were favorable TO the miners
side, and at 1880 the meeting adjourned
until 1870 thisafternoon, the understanding
being that il the Secretary, who left before
the adjournment to visit the operators and
learn their action, should report favorable
action on their part, the miners commit.
tee would be appointed this afternoon.
Mr.. P. @. Dickson, OF the Hampton, Coal

whose mines arc not running would be
willingto have the miners resume works at

DUBLIN, May l4.-Joe Brady was hanged
at s o'clock this morning. A vast con-
course gathered outside the prison yard in
which Brady was executed. A s,reug force
Of cavalry, Infantry and police were present
to preserve order. There was no attempt
at disturbance, however. The morning
opened beautifully, but there were show
ers at about the time the execution took
place. Brady rose at o'clock. At 6:35
Canon Kennedy, OF st. James church, and
Father 0'Kellly administered the sacra.
ment TO the condemned man. The three
remained praying until the arrival OF the
hangman. Brady submitted quietly while
his arms were being pinioned, and walked
slowly and untiinchingly TO the scatiOld.
A black flag indicating that the execu-
ton had taken place, was hosted over the
prison at three minutes past eight. Al
most Immediately alter the flag was raised
a hcarse and coach with the mourners was
OF the prison. The police, however, inter-
fered aud prevented the vehicles from
approaching. There had been reports cir.
culating that after the hanging OF Brady
his friends would endeavor TO excite the
people to demonstration by parading an
empty hearse through the city.
Brady was visited by his mother last
evening. She was heard 10 exclaim:
"Mind, Joe, no sta,ementp Brady smiled
and replied. "Don't be foolish. Do you

government any information. A wreath
OF flowers was received by Brady, to which
was attached card bearing an
expression OF grief at his fate, from the
lrishmen living in Liverpool. Brady
made no statement to the jail chaplain or
TO the governor OF the prison. One OF the
last things he did was to write letter
TO his mother. He carried a prayer book
in his hand TO the scafold, and was
thoroughly resigned and finn. His body
fell nine feet and bis death was
instantaneous. Brady was dressed in
the same clothes that he. wore during
his trial. The number Of persons in the
crowd outside the jail Il is estimated,
reached ten thousand. The throng Is said
to have been even greater than any Of
those which collected when executions
were public. At the moment the black
flag was seen over the jail the cry was
raised Of "Hats off," and every head was
uncovered. The crowd shortly atterward
dispersed quietly. '.''

was Not Aeeepted.
MAsslLLoN, May 1+.-From gentleman
living in New York. and who has been in.
timately associated with the building and
inner workings Of the Wheeling & Lake
Erie Railroad, has been gathered the
following in reference to the rumored
sale Of that road and the Cleveland & Ma.
rietta not heretofore made public. Com.
modore Garrison paid for the construction
Of the w. & L. E. 81 100, 900. He paid for
the Cleveland & Marietta $3.50, 900, and
when the purchase was made he issued
81, 100000 bonds, paid the purchase money
out OF them, and the understanding was
that the remaining $4,000 was to be
spent in improving the road. A large
part OF II has already been disbursed IN
that way. The Vanderbilts quite recently
made an offer for both roads as folIowg:
They rendered the commodore $1,000 900
in cash, S5,0O0,000 OF bonds, to be issued
By the proposed new management Of the
consolidated lines, and the interest ut 6
per cent. which has accrued on the bonds
he now holds. This, offer, the informant
says, the commodore declined, mainly for
the reason that he Is Of the opinion that
when the projected Southern Pennsylvania
Is built by the Vanderbilts 10 Wheeling
the W. & L. L. will be the connecting
line between Wheeling and Toledo, where
It strikes the Lake Shore, and In the event
OF the building OF the Southern Pennsyl.

will not soon forget. Every animal was
aroused, and as the lightning flashed and
the thunder rolled, they answered back
with every imaginable noise.
The lions and leopards with glaring eyes,
paced their cages and lashed their tails as
they howled and gtowled. The elephants
were trumpeting and appeared uneasy. The
birds gave forth strange wild cries and the
monkeys chartered with fear. Here there
were more whistles being sounded and
men were rushing abodt closing the cages
and drawing the tarpaulins over. Others
were lowering the sides OF the tent and in
few moments the horses came dashing
up from the stables. They were attached
to the wagons, which were quickly drawn
out and packed in another part OF the
grounds. The elephant keepers were busy
soothing their charges, which they had in
hand, and then marched them out on to
Virginia street where they were halted
until such time rs the bridge should be
clear OF passengers. Jumbo happened to
be by himself and he raised terrible
racket until his trainer reached his side
and quieted him. 1t was only for an in.
slant that confusion reigned. As soon as
the whistles sounded everything was order
and system. Every man knew what was
wanted Of him, and those magnificent
brutes, the horses, seemed to know Just
what was expected Of them. One
was enabled at a time like this to
fully appreciate the clear minds
that controlled this army OF men and hun.
dreds Of horses. There was no loud shout.
ing OF orders, no cursing- everything was
done by system. This Il is that has great.
ly made the Barnum show what it really
Is to-day, and has been for years, the great.
est show on earth. The management is
entitled TO all praise for its endeavors last
night to continue the performance, but 1t
was an impossibility. Nature was against
them and the odds were too enormous.
The work Of taking down the heavy tents
is an arduous one at any time, but last
night it was herculean task. Everything
was soaked and the mud was ankle deep.
Still everything was loaded and on the cars
by midnight.
The handling Of an army is not greater
work, nor can 1t be better done than the
handling OF Barnum's circus and show.
