Decay Was the Only Sure Sign for the

George Francis Train, with a big box full
of b~outonnieres, was on hand early this
morning at the Bishop inquest, and he dis
tributed his posies with a lavish hand among
the jurymen and reporters.
1t was rumored that some sensational evil

the examination the courtroom was packed
with q crowd OF eager, curious people.

the witness stand.
He started out by giving definitions OF
hystero. epilepsy and hystero- catalepsy, which
the photographers had great trouble In taking
down.
The latter was much more serious than tho
former, he said, and patients had often been
known to die in the attack. The symptoms
were those of combined hysterin and cata-

He had known of a case of catolepsy when

NECESSITY FOR THE NEW WING.

Even MIR. Crowley's Figure Awaits the

Opening the Museum Sundays.
Mayor Grant is to visit the American Mu-
scum of Natural History at Seventy ninth
street and Ninth avenue late this afternoon
and inspect the building and the new wing
now in course Of erection in order to see for
himself inst how the land lies IN regard to
opening the Museum ON Sunday.
The Trustees of the Museum want $40O, 900
to complete the new wing. The Mayor de-
clines to order the issuance of the bonds for
that amount unless the Trustees will open the
Museum ON Sundays. The Trustees say tina
the building is not large enough to
date a Sunday crowd.
Mayor Grant hos his doubts about this, and
hence the visit.
His Honor will see many interesting sights
when he reaches the building. The work
men on the wing, under the direction of
Supt. Sharp. are engaged in placing in posi-
ton the largest iron Pirder ever used in the
erection of a building. 1t is sixty-two feet
long and weighs eighteen tons. A mail
engine in the cellar is expected to hoist the
massive girder. but the latter is more apt TO
yank the little engine all over the place.
There will be several interesting additions
to the Museum as soon as the new wing is
complete. There is really not room enough
TO place them in the Museum proper. and
Supt. Wallace bowed the EVENING WORLD
man about to prove 1t.
The Museum appears to be already over
crowded. and several Of the collections have
been removed for storage on account of lack

There are -, 900 stuffed birds which cannot
be placed on exhibition. Among other things
are four large boxes of skeletons and stuffed
monkeys. an immense collection of shells,
Chinese games, instruments and wearing
apparel OF the earlier periods, the stone axes

antiquities, skeletons of different chiefs of

of these are waiting places.

A GOOD RIGHT-HAND BLOW.
1T WON THE MARINES FIGHT WITH LUCIE
IN THE THIRTEENTH ROUND.
rspIcIAI TO THE EVENING woRLp.l


SAN Francisco. May 90 .-The first OF a series
Of contests for the middle-weight championship
Of America, to be given at the rooms of the CAL
ifornia Athletic Club, took place last night in n
battle between George La Blanche, Of Boston,
known as the Marine, and Mike Lucie, OF Phila-
delphia.
The fight was to a finish, Marquis OF Queens
berry rules.
La Blanche weighed in at 1861 and was slightly
the favorite in the betting. Luoie was a pound
lighter. Time was called at %. 30 o'clock.
In the first round both men spared cautious
ly, Lucie breaking ground.
La Blanche led with his left lightly. Lucie
responded with his left on the ribs.
La Blanche forced him into the corner, and
dealt him one in the wind.
Lucie led with his left. La Blanche turned,
and the blow passed over his shoulder. Some
rushing followed, but no heavy blows were
struck.
Lucie gained first blood in the third round.
Up to the tenth round Lucie seemed able to
hit La Blanche at will. but his blows lacked
force.
He seemed the more nimble and the fresher Of
the two. In this round. however, the Marine
seemed TO rouse up. and the Philadelphian was
foored twice in quick succession.
From this time out La Blanche forced the
fighting.
In. the thirteenth round Lucie was knocked
fiat by a rlght-hander and did not get up until
the hight had been given to his opponent
