"A Brother Of Patsy Cardiff

John Marley.
ASHLAND, Wis, Feb. 2O.-In the pres
ence of select audience, behind barred
doors, James Cardiff, of Minneapolis,
brother of the redoubtable Patsy, and
John Marley, of this city, stripped to
the waist and. wearing two-ounce
gloves, met in a four-round fight for
nlood and glory, and not for money.
Ihere was friendly feeling between the
principals at the outset and for half of
the 1lrSt round, when Cardiff broke his
opponents guard and brought up his
right with terrific force against his left
eye. nearly closing it. This aroused
Narley, and with blood in his eye he
rushed at Cardiff, knocking him COM
pletely. down by well-directed blow
with his left behind Cardiff's ear, which
cut cash two inches long and drew
the vermilion. The second opened
with light sparring, which continued
untll the middle of the round, when
Narley again brought up with a
smasher on Cardiff's mouth, knocking
out couple of teeth and loosening
nearly all in front. Cardiff whirled
around and fell into his opponents
arms. He tried to arise, but failed.

at the call in the third round. Varley
again got in his left with good effect
after continued sparring, knocking his
man clean over the ropes, which closed
the round. In the fourth light sparring

right eye with his head, cutting it
badly. The referee gave the match to

CHICAGO SOCIALISTS.
They Capture the Trade and
Labor Assembly.

CHICAGO, Feb. 20.-The socialists and
conservatives, under the leaderShipS of
II. J. Morgan and Mark l.. Crawford,
succeeded in turning the trade and labor
assembly into beer garden last even
ing. The fight was precipitated by the
committee on organization. L. III. Nc
Logan, as chairman of special COM
mittee, reported against the admission
of the delegates from the Central Labor
union (socialistic). He said that the
union was antagOniStic to the Trades
Assembly; that it was political organ
ization, and that its delegates were not
entitled to admission. The committee
Crawford made bitter attack upon the
Central Labor union and declared that
the Trades Assembly had nothing In
common with them. Mclogan said the
members of the Central Labor union
were nearly all socialists and anarchists,
who desired to capture the Trades AS
sembly for political purposes. L.
j. Morgan jumped upon McLOgan and
accused him of selling himself to
the Democrats for S. day as an en-
plOye in the election commissioners

charges. McLOgan shouted that the cen

ensued for about five minutes, during
which time delegates arose, yelled,
Kissed, stormed, waved hats, umbrellas
or whatever else was convenient. The
chairman in vain kept up an incessant
rapping for order. Powers continued
and said that if the central labor union
was admitted the conservatives would
withdraw. Finally, after much turmoil,
the question Of admitting the delegates
was put and the socialists won by
large majority. A split in the trades
and labor assembly is now inevitable.

But Little Progress Made.

CHICAGO, Feb. 20.-The Western rail
ways began peace negotiations to-day
in earnest by meeting in conference
with all of the Southwestern roads

Western, Northwestern and South
western roads under the governing con-
troll of one board which is to have the
authority to establish joint rates. settle
questions arising between competitive
lines and exercise a general supervisory
power over all the roads. But little
progress was made to-day in that direc-
ton, the discussions and interchanges
of views demonstrating that the lines
were wide apart in their views. Beside
the Stickney roads were not repre-
scented, although the traffic manager
was on his way and will be present to-
morrow, to which time the meeting adj

AMERICAN SHIP LOST.
Particulars of the Burning OF the
Ship John L. Berry.

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 2O.-Capt.
Watts and the shipwrecked crew of the
American ship John T. Berry, burned
off the Australian coast, arrived here
yesterday on steamer from Auckland.
The Berry was loaded with paraffine,
and was bound from Philadelphia to
HiOga, Japan. On the night of Jan. %
fire was discovered and soon spread so
rapidly that the captain ordered all
hands to the boats. He and eleven
sailors and one passenger got in the
boat, while the second mate and nine men
went in the other boat. The ship burned
all night. but in the morning the captain
could find nothing of the second boat.
he shaped his course for the Australian
coast, 500 miles away. So hurried had
been his departure from the ship that
they found themselves under the burn
ing tropical sun with no water. There
were stored in the boats tins of meats
and biscuit, which only seemed to add
to their thirst. Heavy seas forced them
to work constantly to keep the boat
bailed out, and several times they mar
rOwly escaped swapping. After seven
days of terrible suffering from thirst
and exposure they made the coast and
were rescued. Capt. Watts lost $4,000
by the wreck. He is a member Of the
firm of Watts & Co, of Thomaston, Me.

BLIZZARD FATALITIES.
Figures Showing the Actual Loss
OF Life in Dakota During the
Great Storm i'm IaDuapv

OI LILO IN Dakota During the
Great Storm i'm January.
MITCHELL, Oak, Feb. 20.-The Re-
publican, OF this place, forwarded cir
culars to the county treasurer of each
OF the fOrty-three counties in South
Dakota, with request for the exact
facts as to the loss of life in the storm
or Jan. IL, and replies have been re-
celVed from nearly all. This is the
summary: Aurora county, > deaths:
Brown, l; Bon HOmme, 10: Brule, |:
Beadle, 0; Buffalo, none; Campbell, 3:
Charles Mix, /; CoddingtOD, none;
Clark, a; Dawson, 1: Dickey, none;
Day, 1; Douglas, 3: Edmunds, none;
Faulk,. 5; Hanson, /; Hyde. 2; Hand. G.;
HUTCHINSON, 6; Hughes, none: Jerauld,
=; klngSbury, /; Lake, /; Lincoln, 6;
McCook. /; Minnehaha, Z; Potter, none;
Sphinx, 4; Sully, none; Sanborn, 4;
Turner, o; Walrath, none; Union,
none; Yankton, 8.
1t will be seen that the total loss of
life south of the eleventh parallel is
exactly los; and this comprises the bulk
OF mortality in the whole of Dakota, for
the reason that in the north half the
storm came up at night or very early i'm
the morning, while it reached Aberdeen
bout II O'Clock a. H., Mitchell at 1920
and YanktOn at 20 .. m.
The reason for the great loss of life in
Bon HOmme county is that it was
market day with the Russians, who
form great majority of the population
mere, and consequently nearly every
BODY was out of doors. The mildness of
the forenoon caused those who were out
or doors to neglect their usual winter
clothing; and the history of the fatali-
ties in the various counties proves that
only those thinly clad were the suffer-
erS, as many stayed out all night who
were sufficiently clothed, and suffered
very little.
When we consider the area covered
by the storm Of Jan. II, and realize that
out of population of nearly $4,000 i'm
the counties named there were but 10J
deaths, the outrageous character of
many accounts of the disaster becomes
apparent to even DakOta'S bitterest
enemies.
The losses in stock will fall short of
1000 by most liberal estimate, the
heaviest fatality being in Douglas
county, where 500 are reported as miss
ing, and the next heaviest in Aurora,
200. In the other counties where losses
occurred the number ranged from 500
to 100.

Near Nauen, few miles from Berlin,
Prussia, the widow of Borsig, .the foun-
der of the largest locomotive works in
Germany, resides with her two daugh-
tiers. Last fall during the great maneu-
vers, Lieut.. Won. Alvenslaben, of the
First regiment of Foot Guards, after a
long ride, stopped at the Borsig mansion
and asked for a drink of water for his
horse. He was invited TO take seat
himself, and did so with pleasure. The
natural sequel was that he should pay
the family visit. He was received, but
not invited to call again, but he did call,
for all that, and called again and again,
paying marked attention to the younger
of the two sisters. In spite of the de-
cided Encouragement he met with, he
actually popped the question and was
refused. Then the scheming lieutenant
conceived the strange idea of compelling
the ladies'consentb by involving them in
little scandal. He inserted the an

No one had.

that he saw robin this morning"
''I'll take that bet!' exclaimed three
or four at once, and the money was soon
put up.
One of the crowd opened the door and
whistled to jim to come over, and as he
entered the door the inquiry was shouted
at him:
''Eh, Jim, did you see that runaway"
"Gentlemen," replied the man as he
looked from one to the other, 81 saw a
robin this lnorning-the first of the sea-

The money was handed over, and a
few minutes later the winner and Jim
met in the city hall to divide it and plan
a raid on some other place.

The Accent on the"Him."

A young lady in Boston recently
found herself in quite an awkward pre-
dicament all on account of her zeal i'm
mission work. She had taken class of
little street gamins, in whom she was
endeavoring to instil thel truths of re-
ligion. Her friends limited that her
mission work was rather inspired by
the fact that the assistant pastor of her
church, who was young and cookbook
ing, had charge of it, One Sunday he
came to her class, and she concluded her
remarks to the youngsters by saying:
81 want you to be good boys, and do all
these things, because [ love you ALL"
Il know who you love most" shouted a
small boy in the front seat. "Well,
who is it?'' kindly asked the young
woman, utterly unsuspecting the ap-
preaching thunder bolt. ''Him" yelled
the boy, pointing dirty finger at the
young clergyman. The boys giggled,
the poor teacher blushed scarlet, and
the young minister looked very, very

fight took place near this city yesterday
at a resort we'll secluded from the eyes

two young men from this city-Jim
W. I'hielman, aged nineteen. Both had
evidently been in training for some
time. About fifty men witnessed the
mill, which took place at 3 p. m. The
contest was no hippodrome, but the
younger of the two, Thielman, soon
displayed his superiority from a scien-
tific standpoint. and nearly won the
fight in the fourth round. The fifth and
last round only lasted few seconds,
when Robertson received blow on the
head which dropped him unconscious at
