MILWAUKEE, Feb. 19.-Jack Nc
Aulitfe and Billy Madden left yesterday
afternoon for Beloit. where they will
spend couple of days at McAuliffe's
Old training quarters. He will then
take the opportunity of working off
some of the superfiuous flesh he has
acquired since his contest with Myer.
GAINESVILLE, Wis. will be the first point
visited after leaving Beloit, and spar
ring exhibitions will be given there and.
in other towns in the state, at which.
McAulitfe wilisotfer $50 to any man of
his class that he cannot knsck down in
four rounds of fair boxing. This offer
is an original idea of Madden, and he
thinks it will supercede the old knock
outs. Jim Fell, now of this city, but
formerly of Michigan, is DESTROYS of eX-
changing contest of some sort, a finish
fight being preferred, with Tom Lees,

BosTON, Mass, Feb. -l9.-The pro-
posed fight between Ike Weir, the Bel
fast Spider, and Frank Murphy, for the
featherweight championship and
purse. has been; looked forward to by
the sporting fraternity as second in inn
portance only to the late McAuliffe-
Myer contest, and consequently when
it came to be known this afternoon
that the affair. has been decided off,
there was much surprise, disappOint-
ment and speculation. Neither OF the
principals could be found, but 1t was
ascertained that the sporting editor of
the Herald, who is temporary
stakeholder, was the authority
for the rumor: The latter gen.
tleman lays the blame OIL Weil
and sets it down to that eccentric gen.
tleman'S well-knOWn crankiness. Said
he: weir came into the Office to-day
and formally declared the fight off. and
handed a written refusal to meet Muir
phy under the existing arrangements.
He said the cause was because he coul
not borrow S25. 1t seems the Spider"
has been splurging a little of late and
got somewhat strapped for money. Yes
terday, being out of funds. he went to
his hackers. and, telling them of his
needs, asked the advance of the modest
sum named out of what would be coming
to him after the fight. 10 his surprise,
his request was refused, and it made
him SO mad that he created a scene
which led to his refusing to fight under
their management. Said Weir: when
they heard my refusal they threatened
to roast me, but that does not trouble
me much" He was argued with per-
sistently for an hour but without sue
cess, and to show his determination he
destroyed his agreement. The gentle
man he applied to personally for the
money denies that he used any threats,
and is as anxious as any one to get Weir
to fight. but says the reason he did not
give him the money was because he did
not have that sum with him at the time
and the "Spider" refused to wait. The
latter. to show that personal fear of an
encounter with Murphy had no influ-
ence on his present action, has it is
learned. approached Ed McEvoy to
match him against Murphy.

ECHICAGo, Feb. 19.-Judge Cooley and
Hon. w. III. Morrison, of the interstate
commerce commission. arrived here
this morning and proceeded to the
Rookery building, where representa-
lives of all the principal Western roads
were assembled. The judge. in his re-
marks, said the meeting was called
more for general conference on rates
than to adjudicate any specific charges.
He was followed by the Hon. II. Austin,
ex-governor of Minnesota and eX-rail-
road commissioner for that state. He
said: "The object of the. present III
gury, as | understand it, is mainly to
ascertain whether tine companies cited
In the notice comply with the require
ments of section six of the interstate
commerce act, and if not, to secure
obedience in the future, and more uni
formity in the method of preparing
the schedules required by the law, and
in the manner of putting them into exc
cution-the charges made in said petl-
ton as to alleged Otfenses on the
part of the companies against
other provisions of the inter-
state commerce law being still
held under adyiSemcnt of this, the in
terstate commerce commission. The
object is pot to point out technical OF
fenseS or violations of that section, in
order that the companies heretofore
offending should be subjected to penal
ties, nor TO secure merely technical
compliance thereafter; but
First-To obtain from the commission
an authoritative Interpretation of sec
ton 6: and
Second-To show, if we are able, that
the companies have largely misappre-
hended the scope and meaning of the
provisions of the section, and conse-
quently have failed to comply with
either the spirit or the letter OF the
law.
The second requirement, that the
schedule must SHOW the rates and
Charges in force on the road, and the
third that it shall state the places or
name the stations, should. | contend,
be considered together. in order to get
clear apprehension of their scope and
purpose" He asked the question:
Should the public be allowed to inspect
a company'S schedule at all? And
answered it with decided affirmative.
The investigation is chiefly the result
of complaints made against the North
western railways Ny Ult MiiiIIeSUtd ldll-
road commissioners. The burden of
the complaint is that some of the roads
are not publishing the rate-sheets in
conformity with the law. EX-GOv.
A uStn represented the Minnesota COM
mission, and the roads were represented
by their general managers, After Mr..
Austin had stated his case, testimony
was taken from the managers. Presi-
dent Stickney, of the Chicago, st. Paul

THE sCALPER MUST GO.
1t Is Evident. From Various
Causes, His Days Are Numbered.

Causes, HIS Days Are NUMBERED.
The unqualified condemnation of the
scalping business by the interstate COM
merce commission, says the Chicago
Inter Ocean, their recommendation to
congress that an amendment be made to
the act to regulate commerce prevent
ing the sale of railway tickets by scalp
ers, the action OF the Eastern lines in
declining to place i'll their hands any
tickets of their issue, the action of the
Western lines in withdrawing from the
scaiping offices all tickets of their
issue, the concerted action of the rail-
ways of the country generally in
sale and use of their mileage tickets
as to prevent their being han
died by scalpers, the adoption by the
Central Traffic Association lines OF the
punch description form of contract for
mileage tickets, the adoption by the
same lines Of a punch description form
of tourist tickets, by which only the
original purchaser can use the ticket,
the absolute good faith in which rail
way agreements throughout the coun-
try are now being lived up to. so far as
passenger traffic is concerned; the
Stand against the scalpers which the
press of the country generally has taken
since the decision of the interstate COM
merce commission, and the fact that in
three OF the great states eS-PennSylvania,
Indiana and lllinoiS-the business of
ticket scalping is made illegal by con-
stitutlOnal enactment, all indicate in
the plainest possible manner that the
days of the railway ticket scalper are
numbered.
That portion of the public which has
provided the principal patrons of and
which now finds that the business is
lllegitimate and condemned by the high
est governmental railway authority in
the country, is rapidly withdrawing its
patronage, as it cannot consistently be-
come party to the violation of law,
the passage of which it worked for SO
long and earnestly. The facts are that
the public demands and should receive
just and equal facilities and rates from
the transportation companies without
discrimination OF preference, and the
evident intention of the railroads act
ing under the interstate commission
law is to make their rates reasonable
and public. The further fact that the
railroad companies are ready and
willing TO redeem the unused portions
of all tickets which purchasers may
have for any reason failed to use has
changed the sentiment of the people
generally in regard to the business of
ticket scalping, and an amendment to
the act to regulate commerce prohibit
ing this practice by a national law
would undoubtedly receive the support
of the better class of business men
throughout the country, as the public
can plainly see that whatever reduc-
tions were then made by the railway
companies would go directly to the
people and not be largely absorbed by
middle class, which has built itself up
with out benefting either the public OF
the railways.
