had not been touched by the flames. As
! fast as the bodies were removed from the
wreck they were taken to the village of
Rio, where Coroner Allen and the Dis

paratory to holding an inquest. After the

worn or carried by the victims, that might

The Messenger Suspected.
ST. LOUIS, October 29th.-Frothipgham
the express messenger who claims to have
been robbed the other night, has not been
| arrested. However, the suspicion is ex-
pressed that several employees of the ex-
press and of the railroad company carefully
planned the robbery, with the knowledge
of rockingham, and divided the money
between them. 1t was stated at first that
the amount stolen was slightly in excess of
$4,000 but claims have already been pre-
| sented to the company which swells the
amount to $4,000. The majority OF these
claims have been settled, and as soon as the
others are proved they will be paid.

The illumination Again Postponed.
New YORK, October 3oth-A. M-The
fog which lay over the harbor all through
the ceremony of the unveiling of the
Statue of Liberty on Thursday, lifted in
great part yesterday. The fair weather
promised by the Signal Service people was
still behindhand, however. Though it did
not actually rain, during most of the day
the sky was black and lowering, and every
thing about Governors and Bedlow's
Islands looked still soaked and cheerless.
By rain fell in a fine drizzle, and the
postponed fireworks were clearly impossi-
bic, and shortly before dark an order was
issued by the American Committee declar-
ing them off once more. The great torch
of the statue was not lighted, either. Both
will have to wait for some clear night
tonight, if possible, and if not then, Sun
day or Monday night.

\ Rattling Mill in Boston.
BosroN, October 30th-A. M.-The fight
last night, with two-ounce gloves, between
Jack McAuliffe and Billy Frazier, for 81 900
and the lightweight champion belt, was
the hardest, gamest and most even glove
fight even seen between lightweight glove
fighters in this country. Frazier's weight
was 133 pounds, and McAulife's 139
pounds. The fight was six and six, until
the final and decisive round. McAuliffe
fought on the Dempsey plan, using his legs
for avoidance and his left for punishment.
Frazier claimed first blood, but his leads,
as rule fell shot, owing to McAuliffe's
cleverness and agility. McAuliffe fought
mainly for his opponents face with his
left. The decisive blow in the twenty first
round was a Highlander on the jugular
Frazier fell face forward, and his second
threw up TIE sponge. McAuliffe had a
swollen lip, his only evidence of punish
ment. Sporting men agree that the battle
was the best seen in the East in years.
