and Dominick McCaffrey.

BosToN, Aug. %.
The Windsor Theatre was crowded to its
utmost capacity tonight with people who
came to witness the 'sparring match between
Dominick McCatfrey of Pittsburg and Pete
Mccoy of Boston. Besides the gate receipts
there was no particular purse. but betting
ran very high the New York men generally
backing McCaffrey. while the Boston men
supported Mccoy,
After o clock McCaffrey and Mccoy ap-
peared on the stage. The first round con-
sisted of skilful sparring with little or no
heavy hitting.
In the second both resorted to wrestling
tactics in which Mccoy showed himself to
be superior 70 his antagonists. Once he
threw McCadrey so heavily that his falling
grunt was heard all over the house. The
excitement ran high as the second round
closed with McCatfrey yelling and the audi
ence making pandemonium. In the third
round Mccoy knocked McCrffrey down
twice when number of excited outsiders
jumped on the stage. As McCafirey attemp-
ted to rise Mccoy struck a heavy blow at
him which was a signal iOr general melee
John l.. Sullivan, who acted as second for
Mccoy, knocked down half dozen or so of
enthusiastic supporters of McCaffrey, when
the police rushed on the stage and stopped
the performance. The fight was declared a
draw.

MAINE DISPATCHES.
THE SHAW CASE.
Steps Taken Toward Efecting a SettIe-
ment.

BosTOs, Aug. %.
The creditors of Shaw & Bros, with whom
no arrangement has yet been made, are those
in Massachusetts, with few in Rhode Island,
Connecticut, New Brunswick and Canada 1t
Is thought the settlement OF the Massachusetts
claims will be made under the composition
clause of the State Insolvency Law passed at
the last session OF the legislature.
This requires the assent of three fourths of
the creditors in number and amount to effect
settlement. The proposition for settlement
made by the Shaws early in the year was
defeated by dozen heavy creditors holding
claims amounting to about 81, ,000,0 900.
Massachusetts, creditor has claims
against the Shaws to about 5000, 900.
Steps are taken toward etfecting settle
ment with Massachusetts. The creditors will
probably be taken next month. 1t is thought
the affairs Of the firm can be wound up within
twelve months, unless the settlement of some
real estate matters are delayed for longer
term

Great excitement prevails here over the

hours and is limited TO debate of the pension
aud bounty question alone. As no such dis

of the soldiers is intense. Both were good
soldiers and are splendid speakers, and il is
confidently predicted that the debate will be
more popular than even the famous Wood

that the debate will result in his return to
Congress. The railroads have reduced their
