Relative Civilizations.

An interesting table exhibited at the
Paris exposition shows the relative
civilizations of the several countries
from the postofiice standpoint, by
showing the number of letters per
capita passing through them. Great
Britain leads with 40 per head, Aus
tralia is next with 80, and Switzerland
with 80. The United States, Germany
and Holland have 20, and Belgium
leads them at Is. The other countries
OF Europe gradually descend in the
scale till the zero mark is almost
reached in Russia, which reports only
two letters q year per head. x Chicago

Kilrain Looks Lake a Winner.

BALTIMORE, Md, July 1t is only
in race week that Pimlico avenue pre-
sents the appearance it did yesterday.
Nondescribable vehicles, bicycles and
horse cars carried over one thousand
people out the avenue, and they all went
to see Jake Kilrain, the prize fighter.
His hotel, Halsteads, was tteIr stopping
place, and there the crowd loitered
throughout the morning and evening to
catch glimpse of the man who, week
from to-day, will meet John L. Sullivan
in the prize ring.
OF the result to his trip to New York
Mitchell said but little, but that was
significant, and the visit seems to have
resulted to his liking. He met the Sulli-
van people at Coney Island and found
them intent on having the fight trans
pire. They wanted a fair field and no
favors, and seemed assured that such
would be given them, aud with both
parties anxious to fight, be said, there
was no likelihood of there being any
hitch in the arrangements. Just exactly
what day this week and by what route he
and Kilrain would go south he had not
determined. Those who got good look
at Kilrain yesterday pronounced him as
a man fit to fight for his life, and could
not conceive his being anything else than
a winner.

Before the Fight

NEW ORLEANS, La, July 1.-Sulli-
vans friends received word this morn
ing that Sullivan has started for the
South Sullivan will spend Friday and
Saturday at Spanish Fort, where prepa-
rations are beng made to receive him.
A twenty-four foot ring or square, in
which the great fight will take place,
viii be surrounded by another ring at a
seated representatives of the press,
seconds, bottle holders and a Gordon of
police. Outside of this will be another
ring at a distance of forty-five feet,
within which those holding SIS tickets
will be seated Police will also guard
this ring, both on the inner and outsides,
allowing no interference with the fight
ers or seconds. Professor Denis F. But
Ter has been given SUPPLEMENTARY Of
the ring. The ropes used in the SullI-
van-Ryan fight at Mississippi City
will also be used in the coming
fight. Capt. Jamison of Meridian
with twenty resolute Mississippians will
have charge of the inner ring. In adj
dition to this SPECIAL guard there will
be reinforcement of forty tried men
from the city, who with Jamison g
guard will preserve order.
So far notices have been received
that parties have been made up to come
to the fight from Hazelhurst, Vicks-
burg, Greenville, Memphis, Jackson,
Tenn Galveston, Cairo, Houston, San
Antonio, Fort Worth, Pensacola, Jack
sonville, New York, Chicago, Montgom-
cry, Denver, Mobile, Birmingham and
st. Louis. About two thousand in all to
date. Betting men are still wary but
there is no end of interest in the fight,
and New Orleans is now affected with
the worst kind of athletic fever. Much
curiosity is expressed as to when the
trains are to leave the city for the battle
ground on the morning of the fight. The
time has not yet been definitely settled
but it Is believed that an early
special train to carry press reporters,
telegraph operators, hackers of the men
and interested parties Will leave the
city between 4 and 5 O'Clock on the
morning of the fight for the ringsite.
Attached TO thus train viii be IN all like
lihood coach carrying one of the prin-
ciples in the fight. 1t is thought this
one will be Kilrain, who will occupy the
coach during the night and not leave it
until he gets OF and SHES his castor into
the ring.
Arrangements win probably be made
to have Sullivan, his trainers and
seconds to go over the evening before,
1t being thought that quarters quite near
to the scene of the fight may be OBJ
tanned where the big pugilist can4 have a
quiet night S rest. These arrangements

NEW ORLEANS, La. July 1.-Governor
Nichols does not agree with Attorney
General Rogers and Assistant District
Attorney Finley that there is no law
against prize fighting in Louisiana, and
says those who take part in prize fights in
the state will find out if there is any law
on the subject. He says if the officers of
the law fail to do their duty he viii re-
port them to the legislature. while he
also thinks the attorney general and as
sistant attorney did wrong in making
any statement on the subject. Those
who have the arrangements in charge
says the opposition of the governor of
Louisiana does not affect the matter one
way or the other. In q day or two all
arrangements will be made, and nothing
more will be done until Sullivan and Kill
rain reach the city. The place of the
fight, they say, is delightfully."- situated
within easy reach of the city, and the
precautions taken to remove il from the
possibility of legal interference have been
such that there is no likelihood any
sheriff or police authorities will be able
to reach the scene before the fight is
over, even if they get early information
as to the point where it is to take place.
The managers have been calculating on
1000 people being on hand, but the
present prospect is that that is much I'M

THE WEISS MURDER.
Two Arrests that did not Pan Out-Hunting
New Clues
TWO ARRESTS MADE .


ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July Edward
Bates and John Ul1er, two cab drivers,
were arrested this morning on suspicion
of being connected with the murder of
Anna Weiss. Bates and Uller were out
on lark last Wednesday night in COM
pany with a woman, and between 2
and o 'clock Thursday morning called
at the all-night saloon of John E. Far
rel, corner of Fourteenth and Chestnut
streets. Charles Cornellia, the bar
tender, has recognized the dress of Anna
Weiss as very similar to the one worn by
the woman with Bates and Uller, and on
being shown a photograph of Anna
Weiss declared it to be that of the same
woman. There are other circumstances
in the case which lead the police to re-
gard the arrests as important. A very
rigid examination Of the men is Deing
made.
The inquest was resumed to-day, but
nothing new was elected. William Nc
CLAIR, the Jefferson City gambler, re-
iterated his previous story, and after
hearing one or two other witnesses, the
inquest adjournad until tomorrow.
Bates and Uller, after undergoing
sharp examination by the police author
tiles and producing the woman they had
with them last Wednesday night, were
released about noon, and other clews
are now being worked by the detectives.

UNDER WATER.

The Heaviest Rainfall for Years Visits Waco
and Does Much Damage.
Special to the Gazette.
WACO, TEX, July 1.-The heaviest
and largest quantity of rain that has
visited Waco in years struck the city this
morning and fell for several hours in
torrents. Waco creek, in the western
part of the city, was overfiowed and
caused the Abandonment of houses along
its banks. Employees of the Stayden-
Kerksey WOODEN mills, living adjacent to
the mills, were forced to leave their
work so as to save their property. Work
was suspended at the mills for the day
and the damage to that concern will
amount to $500 or $500. The cause of
this overflow is partly attributed to the
failure of the Missouri, Kansas and
Texas and the Cotton Belt railroads to
properly grade and culvert their road
bed. In the southern yart of the city :,
following the direction of the creek, wa
ter is standing in large bodies several feet
deep. Prominent attorneys here are
endeavoring to work up damage suits.
Cattle owners will suffer loss by this
rain, as in several instances stock were
killed.

WIN Protect the Homesteader

WASHINGTON. July Acting General
Land Commissioner Stone to-day, in
writing to an attorney at Kansas City in
regard to the rights of homestead settlers
in Oklahoma over those who make town
site locations, says that the homestead
claimants viii be protected by the land Of
fee, and if preference is given at all, it
will be to the bona fde settlers. ~
VIII state, - Mr.. Stone continues. SIN
a general way that when a settler in
good faith goes upon public domain and
by compliance with the laws of congress
acquires a right to his selec-
ton, such right cannot be law
fully diminished by subsequent
action of other persons in seeking to es-
tablish a town site location thereon
While the settler continues to occupy his
