NEW YORK, March 16th.-A Posts edito
rial says: A San Francisco paper has an
article commenting upon our recent cita-
uon OF the money indemnity which We
exacted from China in 1858 for the outrages
of Canton mob upon American citizens
In view of that noble precedent we asked
whether the United States in 1886 can
afford TO be less just than China

ports regarding the Dempsey-Le Blanche
fight is to the effect that lie Blanche in

a foul blow which, it is said, Dempsey
administered in the twelfth round. All
the newspaper accounts of the fight agree

should have carried him off the stage when
the claim of foul was made Dempsev's
friends says lie Blanche has been using
whisky too freely and was out of condi-
ton. Boston newspaper men here have
adopted this latter statement, and saw lie
Blanche is noted as hard drinker, though
thoroughly game man. Despite state
ments to the contrary, your correspondent
has it on authority that Dempsey will go
TO California IN very short time, and will
fight neither Mitchell nor Burke.
Criminal proceedings will be Instituted
against the principals in the recent fight
and their aiders and abettors.
