FIGHTING FOE A SWEETHEART.
HOW TWO DRIVERS SETTLED A DISPUTE

HOW TWO DRIVERS SETTLED DISPUTE
A RECOURSE TO CARDS FAns-THE FIGHT DECLARED
DRAW AFTER SEVERAL ROUNDS.
John Carmody, red headed stalwart, driver of an
ice wagon and James Riley, powerful youth. who
lives by driving dirt-cart, are both in love with
black-eyed damsel living in the rear of tumble
down two-story frame building in West Forty
third-st., whose name is said to be Kate Donovan
Mr.. Carmody had the pleasure OF her company to
Rockaway on Sunday, while Mr. Riley enjoyed her So
eiety in the yard OF her house In the evening The
men friends and they did not desire TO fall out
but each man thought himself the best
two disputed questions at one time Mutual friends
were interested and IL wac arranged that the driv-
Fortieth-st at o'clock yesterday, and play three
games of euchre, tho man winning two games 10 be
entitled to the exclusive sociey OF the girl and the
honor OF being known as the champion eucnre-
PLAYER of the Twentieth Ward.
The meeting took place and the game was begun;
Riley won the first game, Carmody the second. and
the cards had been dealt for the third game when
some shouted that Riley had joker up his
sleeve.
Faith, OF don't know about that" said Carmody.
"Av yer lnsinewato that dim chatin'.yer loiar,
answered Riley.
Excitement followed, and in the confusion
Carmody received blow ON the
accused c Riley of throwing. The two men cnched
and several blows passed between them before they
should be allowed to fight it out. A referee and
seconds were chosen and the crowd left the beer
shop and went to Fortethst, between Tenth and
Eleventh-aves. A ring was formed and each man
went into his respective corner and seated himself
on an empty beer key. AT precisely two o'clock the
referee called timo" and the rushed at
other like mad bulls. IL was give and take from
the start Blood streamed from the and
mouth of each contestant almost simultaneously,
and the seconds of each shouted " first blood "
without being needed.
When time was called the men had to be pulled
apart and dragged to their corners Both men were
breathing heavily, but each seemed anxious TO re-
new the conflict Carmody's body showed large
red Jumps here and there and Rileys face aud lips
were much swollen. The second and third rounds
were repetition of the first, except that the blows
did less execution. In the fourth round the men
fought shy of each other. They advanced wariy,
and though many vicious blows were launched
FORTH nearly all fell short. In the fifth round
Riley, who showed more science aud less strength
than Carmody. was knocked down.
but he rallied and returned the compliment. The
sixth round passed without damage to either, aud
in the seventh round the men staggered and fell
against each other and then rolled over helpless
the street. IL was evident they could not fight any
longer and the referee reluctantly declared the bat
tie a draw.
Five minutes after the crowd had disappeared 4
policeman stroled down Tenthaye., but saw moth
ing unusual.

THE RELATIONS OF LABOR AND CAPITAL


ERN UNION STATISTICS.
At the meeting of the Senate Subcommittee on
Education and Labor yesterday, Mrs Charlotte
Smith, oil Washington testified that the Women's
National Industrial League of which she 10 presi-
dent, was the outgrowth of indignation meet
ing held soon after Secretary Teller Of the Depart
ment of the Interior announced his intention of
employing only men in his department. Mrs
Smith SAID that the main principle which the
League desires to emphasize Is that there shall be
no Discrimination made in the payment Of wages to
men and women for the same work. She denounced
Secretary Lincoln and Attorncy-GeDeral Brewster,
for discriminating against the women employed in
their departments. IL is we-kuown, she said, that
the wages paid to women ,Tsn and girls

A call for the formation .of a women's national

MORRISANIA'S MASKED ROBBERS.
THE AssAILASTs OF YOUNG LASGMAACK NOT DIS

COVERED.
The search for the assailants Of Charles +. H.
Langmaack, who was shot and robbed IN Norris
anna Saturday night, has not been successful. De
tectives Vclely and Selleck, of Inspector ByrneSs
staff, were yesterday detailed, with Officer j. X.
wilkins, of the 1hirty-tbird Precinct, TO
Investigate the case more fully. The cover
OF an old note book was found on Sunday
near the place where the struggle occurred. IL was
supposed at first that IL had been dropped by the
robbers Several names written In il in a German
handwriting we're decphered but subsequent in
vestigatiOn showed IL TO have been lying on the
ground for some days.
There is little doubt now in the minds Of persons
familiar with the facts of tho shooting that Lang
mack was attacked by mistake. IL was 50 dark at
the time, the sky being clouded, that nothing could
bo distinctly few feet distant, and the lad
came along with his satche lac might easily have
been mistaken for the perrOn for whom the robbers
were lying IN wait This person. IL is supposed,
is Charles T. Reichmann, a collector tor the
EbliDg brewery. Relchmanu lives few blocks Ia
the rear of the brewery, and he generally returns
st., where Ian gmaack was shot. Ii is known that
his daIly collections amounted TO considerable
sums, sometimes reaching $1,000. lie rarely
carries large sum with him, however,
usually getting rid OF the money before he goes
home. This fact was probably not known TO the
highwaymen, and IL is supposed that they ex-
pected TO do a profitable nights work and 10 kill
their victim rather than be identified. This fact
conjunction with the pistol used satisfies the police
that the men were neither tramps nor professional
thieves as the latter never attempt murder except
In extreme necessity Ine most probable solution
OF the mystery In the minds OF the police that the
robbers persons who acquainted with
Relchnann's habits, and have perhaps been en-
ployed at some tine In or about Eblng's brewery.
Langamack's father and sister were with him all
day yesterday at the Ninoty-nlnth Street Hospital
and though his case is still critical, some improve
ment was reported and his recovery is deemed rea-
gonably certain.
