LONDON, March lily esterday'S
meeting-by courtesy called fight
between Sullivan and Mitchell has been
widely and loudly discussed to-day.
Hundreds of men who were led by his
wonderful physique, grandiOse air and
boastful words to lay their money on
Sullivan, now look at him through the
small end of the telescope, and the fact
is as plain as the sun at MONDAY that he
can never again hold up his head in
London without the stimulation of
gall in greater quantity than the ordi-
nary human body can contain. 1t
is pity that 1t should be
said, but it is the almost
unanimous opinion among all classes
that the American champion of cham
pions is now relegated to the ranks Of
ordinary pugS, and must hencefOrth
seek engagements, not on his own terms,
but on the terms stipulated by such
men as may think it worth while to
fight him.
ARRESTED.
PARIS. March 11.-Sullivan and Nit
chell and thirty spectators Of the fight
were arrest by gendarmes on leaving
the field and imprisoned at Senlis. The
spectators were soon released, but the
principals were kept in custody until
midnight Sunday, when they were re-
leased, and will arrive in London Mon

FARGO, Dak., March 11.-,Iudge Nc
Connell in an interview tonight says
he was greatly surprised day or so
since by the receipt of a letter from
Delegate Clifford requesting him to write
Hon. William Springer at once of the
necessity of two additional judges for
Dakota, as Mr.. Springer was of the
opinion one would answer. 1t was uni
versally understood there was practically
no objection to the bill providing for
two judges, and that Mr.. Springer was
favorable thereto. The Judge says, as
the subcommittee report of last week
regarding territorial judges has to be
acted ON by the whole committee of
which Mr.. Springer is chairman, OpDo-
sitiOn from him would be apt to kill it,
and, If not in committee, certainly i'm
the house. Judge Mcconnell has re-
ceived numerous letters from people
north and west of Grand Forks urging
him to go to Washington in the interest
of the bill. A letter from Grand Forks
this morning ends: "Our bar aSSOcia-
ton here has agreed, and also the cham
ber of commerce of this city, To- pay
your expenses if you will undertake the
missiOn.'
THE JUDGE SAYS:
81 am going to try, and think i will
be able to go. 1t depends largely upon
business before me this week. or
course | can find time to take a short
trip there, but what causes me to hesi-
tate is that | could not probably remain
long enough to get it from the commit
tee to the house, interest some members
to take charge of it and have it passed
under suspension of the rules, and
this Is the only way it has the slightest
hope. If it should wait to be reached ih
its order on the calendar it would nor
be reached this session. Then it would,
have to go to the senate and pass the
same ordeal. The work of congress is,
hampered by very stringent rules. The,
bill will not work its own way. 1t will
need some guardian angel to watch Its
course, protect it from strangulation aud
push it forward until it receives the
presidents SIGNATURE

New YORK, March 1.-THE Herald
publishes in advance chapter of Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher's biography
touching on the famous scandal. Mr.
Beecher makes out all apparent case of
pure blackmail against him, shows that
every pressure was brought upon him
to extort money, that he yielded ON ac-
count of sympathy with Tilton until he
became convinced that his feelings
were being imposed on, when he stopped
and the suit followed. He paints MOul-
ton in the blackest colOrs, and says sig
nificantly: Everybody in the business
seems to have had copies of everything
except myself" His only Offense
against Tilton's family relations was in
advising a separation.

ARTHUR STILL CONFIDENT.
The Chief Of the Brotherhood
Continues to Talk CheerfullY.

CHICAGO, March 11.-Chief Arthur
was taking his Sunday rest this after
noon, apparently cool, collected and
happy, when interrupted by a reporter
with the query:
"Well, Mr.. Arthur, what have you to
say of the decision rendered by the 1ail-
road commissioners of Iowa?' ~.
II think the decision OF the Iowa COM
missioners has been eminently fair and
impartial" was the reply. Then he
added, after moments pause: 81 also
believe that the letter of Gov. LaTrabee,
of Iowa, to President Perkins, of the
Burlington, will be commended by the
business and travelling public, not only
in Iowa but throughout the county. The
governor of Iowa, after thorough in
Vestigation, has found that there is
something to arbitrate-the Burlington
officials to the contrary nOtWithStand-
ing-and has advised the president
of the O. accordingly.
LAS to the situation having been mar
rOwed down to game of freeZe-Out,"
continued Mr.. Arthur, deliberating as
he spoke, lit remains to- be seen how.
long the directors and stockholders will
sustain the present bankrupt policy of
the BurlingtOn-a bankrupt policy with
no sufficient cause. For our part, we
are confident that the Brother
hood can stand it longer than
the owners of the road will be will
ing to sanction. Our advices are that
but 33 per cent of the usual local busi-
ness is being done and no through bus
mess. The Burlington members of the
Brotherhood will be sustained and sup
ported by the entire organization just
as long as the men wish or require help,
and that is certainly longer than the
O. can 60 without through freight OF
fast passenger tralnS.'
mot a single man of the brotherhood
has deserted" said the chief with evi-
dent pride, land predict that they will
not. A clause in our rules demands the
dismissal of any engineer found intoXi-
Gated, whether on OF off duty ,and thathe
be reported to the officers of the road as
an unsafe man to employ. Another
clause provides that when man applies
for membership he must be examined
by committee of three from the lodge
he applies to, and unless he is an engi-
neer of one or more years practical ex-
perience, not addicted to the use of i'll
tOXicating liquors, and man of other
wise good character, he will not be ac-
cepted. During the past fourteen years
not a single brotherhood engineer has
ever deserted his engine without using
every possible precaution to save the
lives of his passengers, and the public
we'll knows how many have died at their
posts of duty. 1 attribute this remark
able record to the fact that these men
are, and must be, sober, skilled, moral,
intelligent men, of>nerve and principle.
In all this the great public has been ben
ofitad durinp the mast tWantV-fiVp Uaarc
during the life of the organization. 1
have only to say that the nerve of these
men has and will be demonstrated in
this 20 strike ;,

Special to the Globe.
CHICAGO, March 11.-Within the next
twenty-four hours there will be joint
conference in this city of the grievance
committees of every road lead eastward
from Chicago. Telegraph orders to this
effect were sent out from the brother
hood headquarters late last night, and
the dispatches received to-day indicate
that the response will be general. The
conference has been called to consider
the existing condition of affairs and the
steps, if any, that should be taken by
the men of the Eastern roads to aid the
Burlington strikers. The decision Of
Judge Gresham in the Wabash case
will naturally have much to do
in deciding the question, but
there is very strong feeling
that conservative views will obtain,
and that no radical action will
be resolved upon. Conversations with
several of the Panhandle, Lake Shore
and Fort Wayne men who came in this
afternoon indicate that they are strongly
inclined to the opinion that the Bur
llHS tOu Stllhtlo Cdll w HiolO ChOOpuoiiy
aided in other directions than by gem
eral strike. At the same time the vexed
question of the handling of Burlington
freight by other roads remains unset
tied, and it is recognized that the
ISSUE MUST BE NET
before many days. There are very good
grounds for the statement that. in the
event of the Wabash case being decided
in favor of the Burlington, the latter
road will take proceedings against every
other road that declines to eX-
change traffic, commencing with the
Rock Island, and in that event
even the conservative elements of the
brOtherhOodS may be compelled to ac-
quiesce in radical measures in order to
save the organization from openly con-
ceding their defeat. 1t is pretty GER
tain, at any rate, that the coming week
will see important developments in one
direction OF another. Either the men
or the road will make advances leading
up to settlement or'the strike will be
extended, or the trouble will be left in
definitely in statu quo and the strikers
put upon the pay roll of the brother
hood until something turns up. Even
the most enthusiastic Burlington men
now concede that all the sensational
features of the trouble have dlsap-
peared, and that, il nothing is done to
restore the previous white heat OF in
terest, the s'outs' will be compelled to
look upon the cauSe5aS lost.

Don't Expect to Strike.

PITTsBURG, March 1.-THE engineers
held general meeting here to-day. The
entire afternoon was spent in discuss
ing the strike of the Chicago, Burling-
3toh & Quincy engineers. The result
was that the meeting indOrsed the
strike, approved the manner in which it
to Chief Arthur and Grand Master Sar-
gent pledging their moral and financial
support to the strikers. AS to the mat
M of strike in Pittsburg the meeting
took no action. Secretary Adams said
after the adjournment that such mat
ter was farthest from the minds of local
engineers. Several others were spoken
to and all talked about the same way.
Other meetings will probably be held
during the week to consider the ques-
tiOn.
