Wrestler Muldoon Criticises Sullivan and
Praises the Baltimore Boy.

Wrestler Muldoon Criticises Sullivan and
Praises the Baltimore BOY.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4-William Muldoon.
the wrestler, had hotly contested bout with
the wrestler Carkeek Saturday night. AInl-
doom could do little with his opponent. who
acted on the defensive until the latter part
Of the bout, and then suddenly assuming the
offensive, nearly threw Muldoon. In an in
terview about the Sullivan Kilrain fight at
Richburg Muldoon criticised Sullivan's prize
fighting capacity quite freely. sullivan. p
he said, depends entirely upon his rushes
and his enormous strength, and knows moth
ing about using the tactAs Of the prize ring.
He has always been a glove fighter, ana
after he has made several Of his rushes ana
finds that his man is not whipped he wonders
what manner of man his antagonist Is and
becomes discouraged
sullivan was Discouraged at Richburg.
''This was the difficulty / found at Rich
burg. Sullivan was simply astounded by
Kilrain's endurance and gameness, and with
out showing any lack of courage he undoubt-
edly believed that he had met fighter of a
different character than any he had gone
against before, and it puzzled him. Why.
that fellow is getting fresher and fresher ali
the time he said 10 me several times during
the fight
YOU'RE all right, John" said. LEAD
for his body and he is bound to give way in
time.
"'What's the use,'n he grumbled, '' it aint
hurting him anyf
II merely tell you this,r Muldoon CON
tinued, Ito show you the character Of sulli-
vans mind, and l do not mean to insinuate
that Kilrain had any show Of whipping Sui
hvan. As fact, he could not have won the
fight if he had been armed with baseball
bat
kilrain's Remarkable Pluck.
Sullivan was in such condition that it was
simply impossible for Kilrain TO knock him
out. He was ready for a rushing fight or
for long fight Of two hours or three hours
if necessary, and was bound to win if be sim
ply kept his head That is where Sullivan
is weak. He is inclined to lose his temper
and try to do his man in one round very
foolish proceeding when he has such an an
tagonist as Kilrain proved himself to be. /
do not think / ever saw such determination
in ring as was shown by hsilrain. He
looked confident and determined when be
enteled the ring, anu ne wore the same g.
preston long after it was plain to every one
but himself that he could not ~ the fight.

w WASHINGTON, Nov. An. Romero, The
Mexican minister, hurriedly returned to
Washington Saturday from the Pan-Ameri-
can excursion. His visit is in connection
with the alleged protest of his government
against the presentation speech at Costa
Riea Of United States Minister Migner to
the Central American states. That part Of
the speech TO which objection appears TO
have arisen is as follows; "The states Of
Central America must unite. A strong
Federal government is your only salvation.
Columbia is massing her troops on the south
ern border of Costa Rica. Mexico has a
covetous eye on Guatemala. II will be only
short time before Columbia will seek to
seize your state and Mexico will seize Guata-
mala Central America will be blotted
from the map OF independence, ard her
identity sunk in that OF Columbia and Mex
leo. The time is drawing near, and only the
most energetic action in federating Cen tral
America can save your freedom
No Trouble Apprehended.
Senior Romero said last evening that United
States Minister MINERS utteranoes will not
occasion an international dispute and that
the affair has all been satisfactorily settled
Minister Romero has lately received copy
Of The Diario Official, the official organ Of tho
Mexican government, Of Oct 90 In that
paper is published the official correspondence
which hns grown out Of the Mizner incident,
the series Of letters being concluded by one
from Secretary Blaine Of Oct. II, which,
translated and given out by Senior Romero,
refers to the Objectionable remarks as fol-
lows:
Secretary BIaine's Letter.
"The impropriety and inprudent charac-
ter Of the remarks referred 10 was noticed
by this department when the speech was
received, and instructions were sent 70 Mr.
Mimer on the subject on Sept. IS, express
ing sincere regret at his words, and the fear
that they would receive an erroneous inter
probation, 70 which, unfortunately, they
were liable, and which, as noticed by your
letter, has been given them by tho Mexican
government Knowing the history Of the
relations of mutual intimacy and confidence
which it has been the constant purpose Of
this government to maintain with Mexico,
as well as with other nations, II hardly APP
pears necessary for me TO assure you, and
through You the government which you rep
resent, that the remarks Of Mr. Miner,
which implied an oiiicious and partial dis
position on the part of this government,
were wholly unauthorized, and that they
occasion sincere regret 20 this government,
and are disapproved by it. .

A PARK MEETING.

The city council viii hold a special meet
ing this afternoon at o'clock to consider
the park question. They will be met by
the park commissioners, MeSsrs. r. E
Lawrence, j. o. Davidson, B. H. Camp
bell 1t is understood that when Mr.. VIM.
Greiffensteiu was home few days ago he
submitted proposition in writing on the
park question which will be opened at the
meeting. 1t is understood to be about the
same as given to the public some time ago.
What the council will do with the mat
ter seems to be question as few of the
members seem to have very decided opin-
ions on the question and are not fully sat
isfied what should be done The question
will be made specially and discussed to-
day rather thoroughly.
4 feature of the meeting will be to take
a ride out among the farm locations and
take an invoice of the situation.
Mr. r E Lawrence seems to think the
people of the west side would not take
kindly to the park bonds for improvement
along the Little river unless a bridge
should be built across the big river. giving
them accommodations to the park Should
such improvements be promised he seems
to think the property owners would take
kindly 10 the scheme.
