Boston, July 10.-The Sullivan-Kilrain
fight continues to be the topic of converse
ton. The preachers cannot refrain from
its discussion. A number of them were
seen yesterday by correspondent Here
is what some of them said:
Rev. William Mcdonald, editor Of the
Christian Witness: sit is a most brutal
affair-a reproech to civilization, which
should be frowned down upon by every
good citizen
Rev. Judson Smith, secretary of the
American Board of Commissioners for
Foreign Missions; Il think it is blot upon
US and wish we could see the end of it. 1t
is a shameful thing
Rev. DR.. Mark Trafton 1''Such disgrace
exhibitions must be condemned by every
one who loves either man or Cod
Rev. e. x. Alden: There is but one
opinion of it; il is most disgraceful. If this
thing is kept up, our country loses pres
tige."
Rev. DR.. Dexter, editor of the Congrega-
OnaliSt: lit is too bad that the papers
should glAe so much space to describing
every movement of such men, whose exhi-
billions are brutalizing and demoralizing.n
Secretary G.. H. Spaulding, of the Amer
lean Baptist Publication society: 1T is a
national humiliation. The saddest thing
about it to me was the eagerness with
which the people seemed to scan the papers
yesterday morning for news of the fight"
Rev. DR.. Olmstead, editor in chief of
The Fdtchmdn: sit is barbarous. Itwould
be innocuOus were it not for the blazonry
of publicity given to it."
Rev. C. j. Ryder, secretary of the Ameri-

Last week the state geologist received by

ton rather porous, but harder than any
thing in the museum 1t was cut open by a
skillful lapidary and subjected to various
tests, when it was discovered to be one of
these sponge tips to mucilage bottle, war
ranted to keep perfectly soft and moist and
always ready for use. sent it to the geolo-
gist "ourself" They are handy things.
When you can't get the mucilage to run
through them-which is on the morning of
the third day-you can use them to cut glass
with. And if you stick a hickory handle in
them before they petrify they make the best
stone hammers you ever hit bowlder with.

The ExtradltiOn Of Burke.


WINNIPEG, July 10.-In the Burke trial
to-day, counsel for the defense assaulted the
evidence, which they held did not connect
the prisoner in any manner with the muir
der of Cronin, that Burke knew Cronin or
had any malice against him.
The prosecution commended that the evil
dence made clear enough case to justify
extradition. Judge BAN held that suffi-
cient case had been made out, and that
while most of the evidence is circumstan.
t;al, it seemed to him that evidence giving
a strong presumption of guilt is all that is
necessary to commit a prisoner for trial
or remand him for extradition. He there
fore committed Burke to jail to await ex-
tradition. A full court, he said, is now
sitting and the case could be brought be-
fore them Immediately on application for a
writ of habeas corpus. Application will be
made to the departmental justice at OF
tawa for extradition, but the prisoner will
beigiven fifteen days grace in which to ap-
peal from Judge Bain's decision.

A New Screw for the Nipsic.

Especial to THE HERALDEsaminer Dispatch ]
WASHINGTON. July 1O.-9rders were tele-
graphed the commandant of the navy yard
at Mare island yesterday, directing him to
send by the steamer of the 18th instant, a
new screw for the Nipsic, now at Homo
lulu. 1t is of castiron, weighing over s, COO
pounds, and there will be no trouble in put
ting itin the ship, as there is large ma
chine ship at Honolulu. The damages to
the Nipsic were more serious than thenavy
department had any idea of; $4,000 in coal
alone has been expended IN trying to get
the ship to some port where she could be
repaired. The idea Of ordering the Alert
to tow her to San Francisco is looked upon
as absurd here. The Alert could not carry
coal enough to steam from Honolulu, much
less tow the Nipsic, so the departmental
cided to send out new screw for the ship.
Fortunately, one answering every purpose
is now at the Mare Island yard.
There is likely to be court martial
growing out of the conflicting orders to the
Nipsic, and the action of Admiral Kimberly
in the matter is not looked upon with much
favor in naval circles in this CITY.

A Mexican Central Accident.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 10.-A special dis
patch from Ell Paso, Texas, says: ''The
passenger train on the Mexican Central
which left Paso Del Norte Monday night,
was wrecked five miles this side of Chi
huahua, and every coach ditched. The
train was running at rapid rate to
make up lost time occasioned by wash
outs. The under-pinning of bridge had
been washed out by torrent, caused by g
cloud burst in the mountains. The engine
passed over safely, but the bridge gave
way before the coaches got across. Two
people were killed instantly and twenty
to the hospital at Chihuahua, and two of
them have since died.

Sullivan Coming North.

MOBILE, Ala, July 1O-John L. Sullivan
got on board the Louisville & Nashville
train at Grand Bayala, at 5 o'clock this af
ternoon, with Mike Cleary, Mike Null

his hacker. They had been in hiding tC
avoid papers being served, and their move
ments were not known. They will arrive
at Nashville at 10 :25 tomorrow, Thursday,
passing through and by way of Louisville.
Sullivan was much excited when in
formed of the rumor of Kilrain's death,
and every effort is being made
TO keep any dispatches being sent
as to his movements on the route, etc. The
party are very uneasy, fearing arrest.
They did not know whether there is any
truth in the rumor or not, as at that time
its falsity hadn't been ascertained. They
are much at sea as to what course to pur-
sue. Sullivan said he undoubtedly pun
ished Kilrain terribly and looked as
though that rumor was no great surprise

CHICAGO, July 10.-The presidents of the
lines of the Inter State Commerce Railway
association met again today without giving
any indication that they intended to let
their organization go to smash. The COM
mittee appointed on the preceding day to
lumber with the Chicago Il Alton and Chi
cage & Burlington and Northern had moth
ing to report and were allowed further
time, it being announced that General
Manager Harris, of the latter company,
would arrive in the city tomorrow.
A resolution was adopted instructing the
managers of the roads represented to take
steps to advance the rates from Peoria and
ST. Louis to St Paul and intermediate
points. 1t was further resolved that the
commodity rates which have recently been
put into effect between Chicago and St.
Paul are too low to be reasonable, and it
is the duty of each road in the association
to use its influence to have them advanced
as soon as possible. Adjourned till to
morrow.

on with it. Mitchell was not careful
enough, and when the coat was being
pulled off it was noticed that the pugilist
fiinched as if in great pain. He was finally
seated and supported by big fat pillows,
being weared by the ride from New
Orleans His face was discolored, and
resembled mahogany more than anything
else, while his left arm was black and blue,
and just under his right eye he wore cut
in the shape of a crescent, and that optic was
highly discolored. Seeing he was suffer

interview, but Kilrain did say that he had
been licked, but not fairly, and intimated
that he would take the fight up at the
sixty-sixth round at some future time. He
acknowledges that it was one of his of
days, and said if the fight had come OF the
day before he would have made better
showing. He made no complaint, however,
only that he was L OF at his best.

twenty feet wide. Most of those thrown
