TIE TRIBUNE's special cable letter this
morning contains some interesting gossip with
prominent French artists and officials about art
in France and the pictures IN tho Salon. 1t
will not surprise any one to learn that there
are few pictures by American artists in
the Salon. The unfair treatment they have
received in the past from the COM
mttee would hardly encourage them to send
many canvaSses for competition. Neither will
1t surprise any one who remembers the prices
at the Morgan art sale to be told that the
French artists are sure they never have painted
so well as they do now and that they can't
help but improve all the time on account OF
their splendid schools and their generally mag
nifcent and superior art facilities of all kinds.

The wrecking of freight train on the Mis-
eouri Pacific near Wyandotte, Kansas, was
doubtless intended to warn all men that it is
not safe for them TO accept employment on the
Gould system as engineers, frcmen or brake
men. 1t was deliberate outrage, as the con-
dltion of the track shows, ard it was on the
whole the most wicked and cruel wrong that
the strikers or their friends in the Southwest
have been guilty of. Two men were killed
thereby, whose only offence was working for
their living in a way some other men don't like.
The Knights OF Labor will doubtless denOunce
this outrage bat they cannot throw of all
moral responsibility for it So easily. Is 1t not

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, March 15.-Mr. Jay

specting the strike by the Knights of Labor

to a representative Of the Associated Press:

object was then fully discussed, and told.
Mr.. Powderly that had no power in the
matter, not even an advisory, without re-
quest from the court. At that interview
told Mr.. Powderly that If any grievance ex-
listed among our men, if he would bring them
10 our attention, we would endeavor TO right
them. We recognized the necessity of re-

notice and not in consequence of any grey-

Mr.. Gould said: "l am advised that great
numbers of the strikers are not in sympathy
with the movement and will return to work
as soon as assured protection by the civil
authorities. 1t is our intention to resume
operations as fast and as soon as this protec-

Hard Glove Fight.

ELrAso, Tex, March 15.-About 1000
sportsmen and Others gathered at the pavi!-
ion Saturday night TO witness the prize fight
between Billy Manning. of San Francisco,
and B. Burt Price, local pugilist. Both
men have been training for the fight for the
past two weeks. Price had agreed to knock
out the Californian in five straight rounds of
three minutes each or forfeit $3.50, Marquis
of Queensbury rules, and the hardest of
gloves to prevail. 1t was nearly midnight
before the contestants appeared in the ring.
Both men were in excellent condition.
Price showed to better advantage than his
antagonist and began the fight by flooring
Manning with powerful highlander in
just one and three-quarter minutes. On the
second round Manning displayed great eau
ton and respect for Prices fists. After
sparring about the ring, Manning startled
every one by jumping at Price and striking
him fearful blow on the neck. Price fell,
senseless, and did not recover consciousness
for fully minute. This ended the fight,
the referee awarding victory to Manning.

career in the ring. Time was called, and the
men went TO their corners looking badly.
Dempsey's body was covered with abrasions
and his face was marked here and there.
Round 12-Again the men came together
very strong and very game, but Dempsey's
terrible left worked fatally on the counte-
nance of mis- adversary.
Round 13-The Marine came came up
again, dashed tamely at Dempsey, who
hitched in now for dear life, for he felt that
the crisis had been reached. The Marine
was bleeding like a stuck pig. and Jack was
putting and blowing badly. They both then
got to work at half arm distance, and never
stopped Furnishing each other until the Ma
rine dropped exhausted. Dempsey went to
his corner showing the signs of the terrible
punishment he had received, and the Ma
rine strove to get to his feet, but he could
not rise. He was practically, If not liter

sey the victor and the spectators received it
in silence. Time, 80 minutes. Greater
stamina or a pluckier and fairer fight was
never witnessed in this country, and two
gamer men never faced each other in
twenty-four foot ring. The Marine sat in his
chair bleeding, battered and bruised, and
when asked if he was hurt, said family: II

Dempsey said: WELL won; but you can

Five minutes after the fight was over the
principals and spectators had dispersed, and
nothing was left to tell of the great event
but few blood stains on the floor and the
strong odor of tobacco fumes which per-
vaded the atmosphere. Leblanch was taken
away IN carriage, and, it is said went on
to Boston. The victorious Dempsey, whose
slightly swollen and discolored face and cut
lip were the only indications that ne bore of
the famous encounter, was taken aboard a
tug-boat and was the center of congratu-
latory crowd all the wav to Hunters Point,
where he and his friends were landed at
noon. He met with demonstrative recep-
ton st the various saloons at which he
stopped. 1t was a notable feature that the
most notable men in sporting circles were
left out in the cold and did not get the cor.
rect tip. Even the old-time sporting news
reporters were sent astray after forty-eight
hours wild-goose chasing over Long Island
and West Chester County. AS to the fight,
il was good one. and the gamest any one
present had ever witnessed.

WASHINGTON, March 13.-If the opinion of
the politicians who make Washington their
headquarters during the sessions OF Con-
gress could prevail at the next Republican
National Convention John A. Logan would
be the candidate of the party. He has un-

customed to sneer at his pretensions to the
Presidency.
Two houses have attained distinction in.
different spheres during the present winter.

ity never before witnessed in Washington.
Secretary Fish was noted in his service as
the head of the Department of State for un-

Washington.
General Logan's house has been the resort
of public men, politicians and their families.
Mrs. Logan is distinguished for great ad-
dress, tact, and generous character, and is
eminentIy skillful in management. In fact,
her husband is largely indebted to these
qualities Of hers for his success at the last
Senatorial election and for his present prom

many attractive friends, so that her recep-

ically thrust aside all advances made to him
for "the old ticket" which the friends of
Blaine have pressed recently with fresh zeal.
General Logan has stated in the most posi-

consent to take a nomination for the second
place with Mr.. Blaine or with any other cam
didate who may be nominated.
He affects no eoncealment about being an
aspirant himself for The first place, and he
does not intend to be passive in his ambi-
ton, with the delusion that nomination
may come to him unsought. General Logan
has had too much experience in politics not
to know that conventions are controlled by

MILWAUKEE, March lj.-Sunday afternoon
the bridge tenders on the Northwestern
Railroad bridge, just above the iifeboat sta
ton, discovered the body of a man floating
in the river. Word was sent to the Central
Police Station, and the body was removed.
When taken TO the Morgue papers found on
the body proved beyond doubt that the dead
man was Andrew Sherif, of Chicago, junior
partner in the lumber firm of Sheriff Il Sen.
Young Sheriff disappeared last fall. He
came here from Chicago, and after a week of
tectives searched for him some time without
success. There are no marks of violence on
the body, and it is supposed that he fell into
the river accidentally.

The sdmunds Resolution.

Special TO the Sentinel.
WASHINGTON, March IS 1t is with many
quite generally believed that the contest
between the President and the Senate will
reach solution this week As has before
been named in these dispatches, it is the un-
derstanding that there are Republican Sem
ators who will vote against the Edmunds
resolution and 90 with the Democrats in
support of the position taken by the Pres
ident. Republican Senators who are not
with Edmunds are naturally timid upon the
question and are saying nothing, though at
the same time supposed to be keeping up
wonderful thinking.
Mr.. Edmunds and his followers are by no
means certain they will be able to carry the
day. In fact, they entertain very grave
fears upon the subject Senator Spooner, OF
Wisconsin, is perhaps the most outspoken
OF the Republicans in opposition to the reso-
luton. Senator Sawyer, of the same State,
is regarded as with the Democrats. McMil-
Ian, of Minnesota, is doubtful, and it is gen.
orally believed Mitchell, of Oregon, is with
the President.
Teller, OF Colorado, has sympathies with
the Democrats and many think he will vote
with them, though this is doubtful. If
love-sick Senator Jones, of Florida, could
but give up his courtship in Detroit and re-
turn in time to record his vote, the Demo-
Gratis can, with possible Republican strength,
win the fight
Speaking of jones reminds one what
Senator Call, his colleague, said of him the
other day. In answer to an interrogatory,
Call said of Jones: "0h! the fellow is crazy
the result of women, wine and song.'"
Report has it that the love sick Senator
will return to the Senate by the first prox-
imo, though this is questioned by many of
his Senatorial and Florida friends. 1t is a
settled fact that he can not get the girl, and
his vigorous campaign in the face of as
serted defeat is what appears to be good evil
dence of insanity. His friends in the Senate
say if he will return at once no questions
will be asked.
