To spar six rounds according to the Marquis

$500 is to be deposited by each to assure

1t was proposed that the contest take
place at Point Breeze park, Philadelphia on
Sept. Il, next. Ryan is keeping him

TWO WE'RE ARRESTED
For AssauIting n SaIOOnkeeper at
Midnight in his own House.

Shortly after II o'clock last night Fred
Lederer, salOOnkeeper at 157
West Seventh street, was awakened
by a knocking on the back
door of the saloon. He went to the
door, and in answer to the question was
told by the parties outside that they wanted
to get in for drink. He opened
the door, when the parties, two
Before he was beaten insensible, however,
which call Officer Feis promptly responded,
arriving in time to arrest one of them,
who said his name was j. E.
McFadden. The other one skipped, taking
watch and little money which Lederer
had on his person. McFadden was taken
to the police station. The officer then
returned and got a description of
the other man, who, it seems, wore mask.
He at once began search for him. Mean
time Frank Chandler came to the station to
bail McFadden out. Lieut. Walsh refused
bail, and in a conversation with Chandler
came to the conclusion that he, too,
was mixed up in the matter.
A little later Chandler was brought to the
station by officer Feis as corresponding
to the description of the person he was
looking for. McFadden is a young man,
well known in st. Paul, who has
been engaged at several places as bartender.
He corresponds in size and description to
the man who committed the burglarieS on
Saturday and Sunday nights, but the pO-
lice refused to express any opinion as to
whether or not he is the man wanted for
that crime.

to-day at Toronto, as minister of the inte-
rior, vice Sir David Mac

David's inactivity in dealing with the rapid

White is comparatively young
man, an able journalist, thoroughly ac-
quainted with the wants of the country,
and will be valuable acquisition to Sir

All the German newspapers, fol-

the fact that the approach of France and
Russia toward each other is coincident with
increasing good will between England and
Germany. The rector of the University of
