Dempsey sustnins His Reputa-
tten nj the East.

New YoRK, February 3.-Last Thurs
day night week it was arranged by Ar
thus Chambers and Gus Guthrie that
Jack Fogarty and Jack Dempsey should
meet in the prize ring for $500 side
aud purse of $1,000. to be subscribed
by forty men, each Of whom should
contribute s25 for the privilege Of wit
Messing the battle. 1t was also agreed
that the battle should take place in this
city tonight. Notice Of the arrange
ment was given to select few, and
matters progressed quietly. Forty
gentlemen were approached and readily
paid $25 each for tickets to the mill, "
and received tip as to the grounds. To
avoid police interference the tickets
holders were divided into squads, who
we're met at various resorts by guides,
who conducted them to hall up town,
where ring was pitched. The Grand
Central Hotel was the principal rem
devious, and there gathered AL Smith,
Jere Dunn, Frank Stevenson, Gus Tut
hill, Captain Tuthill and several others.
About midnight word was given for the
column to move, and they journeyed to
the trysting place. In the meantime,
however, rumors OF the intended battle
had spread, and as indications pointed
to the gymnasium of the New York
Athlec Club being the place Of the bat
tie, Captain Killiliea, in whose precinct
the club house is, went there with two
officers and searched the place. He found
no preparations for the battle.
The parties who were to see
the fight meanwhile assembled
at the place selected, and wagers on the
result were made. Dempsey was the
favorits at 800 to $50. By the terms
of the match the winner was to take the
entire amount at stake. $1,000. Alf.
Powers and Dave Campbell seconded
Dempsey, and Chambers and Billy Ed
wards looked out for Fogarty. The
contest was one Of the fiercest ou record
and was governed by London rules. The
men fought one hour and forty-seven
minutes, and finished in twenty-seven
rounds. In the last round Dempsey
broke Fogarty's jaw, and finally
knocked him out by bseaking his nose.
Fogarty displayed great deal OF pluck
and some skill. and, like his adversary,
fought with the ferocity Of tiger, but
Dempsey's heavy hitting proved too
much for him

orawserd,s Murder Premedi-
tafed.

TucsoS, February 3.-with reference
to the recent killing Of Captain Craw-
ford by Mexican troops the Star says;
.It can be shown to the satisfaction OF
any Congressional committee that trade
has been constantly kept up by the
Mexicans with the hostile Apaches,
while every obstacle has been put in the
path of American commands sent into
Mexico in pursuit of renegades. Wher-
ever possible, officers were arrested and
thrown into prison. Among there were
Lieutenant Mcdonald, Of the Fourth
Cavalry, and Lieutenant Ellis, Of the
Tenth Cavalry. They were kept under
guard until the approach of a larger
force of American troops frightened the
Mexicans into liberatipg them. From
the most reliable information there is
not the least doubt that the murder Of
Captain Crawford was premeditated.

MINERS Evtcted
because of a strike.

Because of a strike.
CoSNELLsvILLE, February 3.-Twenty
of the striking miners of the coke region
were evicted from the houses of the
companies to-day, as their tenure was
under iron-clad leases. A furious snow
storm was raging at the time. They
were not compelled to remain out in the
cold, however, being taken in by those
who were not evicted. The condition Of
a few Of the evicted families is pitiful,
but in the main they are well provided
for, having been thrifty and laid by CON
81 ierable money. So far the Sheriffs of
Westmoreiand and Fayette counties and
their deputies have met with no resist-
ance. The evictions thus far have been
confined to the leaders of the strike, a
few being singled out from each Of the
leading works. The eyictions will be-
come general tomorrow. The operators
claim that the backbone of the strike is
broken. aud that before the tvictions
become general the strikers will submit
and return to work.

An unsati.fed CoIoIed Man.

News comes from England that while
Fred Douglass Is being toasted and lion
lied in that country. his thoughts revert
unpleas.ntly To the fact that there are a
good many doors In the country that are
not open To him and his family, and.
SAYS the Savannah Nr,rS, ne therefore
complains that he j. only freeman in
name. He Is in an unhappy state ct
mind He seems to forget that he has
enjoy ell higher privileges than any other
person Of like deserts and CalIher of any
color, or no color at all, that this country
has produced. lie has been taken up by
fanatics and enthusiasts and phiiauthrO-
pist=, educated. enriched. honorej. apo
theosized. and allowed to violate the
5anctity of his own race. as we'll as Of the
Caucasian. by taking to himself white
wife, and still he is not sa listed.
There Is probably 10 white man of
equal merit in this country to whom so
many doors up North are open. and thar
because chance elevated him to the posi-
ton of professional negro. and actually
alienated him from his own race, with
which he now has nothing in common,
and the true position Of which he does
not understand nor appreciate. There are
thousands OF colored men in the South
laboring earnestly 10 elevate their people
morally. mentally, materially and so
cially. who are immcasurablv superior to
Fred Douglass in everything that goes 10
constitute true patriotism and manhood
No word Of vain complaint is heard from
them as TO their status. They recognize
certain lines draw by nature, and while
they may rise ~ We them, they 10 not
desire TO destroy tE"m.
1t is difficult To say whether Douglass
is whining because lac really wants TO
have wider social career here, or in
order 10 draw out sympathy for himself
over the water so that he may profit
more than ever socially, and perhaps pc
cuniariIy, out of his peculiar position as
a professional negro. Whatever his Oh
ieCt may be, in this country he IS entitled
only 10 the contempt of the true and tried
people of both races, no matter if he has
accumulated wealth and attained TO
notoriety. which for his purposes may he
regarded as equivalent TO greatness.
