PHnADELPHIA, March ga hard
glove fight took place this afternoon in
the rear of a saloon between James Bran
nan and John Coburn, two local light
weights. The fight was for a purse of
$3.50 and gate money, and forty. eight ad-
mission tickets at 50 each we're sold. Six
rounds were fought, both men fighting
vigorously, and great excitement prevail
ing among the spectators. When called
for the seventh round both men were very
weak, and Brannan's second, Jack Nc
Cam, had to assist him forward and
seized him from behind and pushed him
upon Coburn. This aroused the ire Of
"Nitchyn Golden, Coburn's second, and
he struck McCann with his bare fist and
the two rolled together to the floor.
While they were settling their differences,
and just as the referee had decided the
fight a draw, a squad of twenty police
men in citizens clothes entered the room
and placed all in the room under arrest.
Forty-six men, including the principals
aud the proprietor of the place. were
marched to the police station, where they
were fined $3.50 each. In addition to the
fine Bremen and Coburn and Clark, the
saloon proprietor, were placed under
$500 bail to answer at the court, and the
others under 800 bail to keep the peace.

St. Louis Railroad Troubles.

ST.. LOUIS, March l6.-At the Missouri
Pacific yards to day numbers of strikers
congregated just outside OF the yards, but
they maintained perfect quiet. The at
tempt to send out the Kirkwood accom-
mediation train this morning failed, the
6remen destroying the engine before it
was attached to the train and the engineer
returned it to the round house; no at
tempt has been made to resume the
freight traffic yet. The situation in East
st. Louis is unchanged, no strike having
as yet occurred among the dissatisfied
s%witchmen. Considerable anxiety is felt
as to the Outcome of this new complica-
ton, but the railway officials generally ex-
press confidence in their ability to adjust
matters before their employees determine
to strike.

WASHINGTON. March l6.-The secre-
tary of the interior has rendered a decision
in the er parte case of james Britt, re-
versing the decision of the commissioner
of the general land Office, of Nov. IL,

of the revised statutes. a person was emit
tied to but one pre-emption right, and he
would not be permitted to commute a

spect to the interests involved. This de.
cision is regarded by the land office Off
