Durkin in his corner against the ropes, and
bending his opponents back almost double
over the ropes, he struck him with all his
might several times in the face. The crowd
became excited when Neal refused to break
away, and finally some Of them pulled the
ropes down and dragged the st. Louis man off
his victim. Durkin's seconds claimed the fight
on foul, but it was not allowed The referee
declared il O draw.

THEY HAVE NOT THE POWER.
The Commissioners Cannot Authorize
the b. and r. to Lay Temporary Tracks.

Several days ago TIE STAB referred TO the
request Of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad
company for permission to lay temporary
tracks on the stone pavement on
9Th street between Maine and
Missouri avenue for the purpose Of accommo-
dating the large influx of people who win be
here for the Knights Templar conclave.
The Commissioners doubted their powers in
the premises and submitted the whole question
to Attorney Riddle for his opinion, which letter
was received today.
He says that the case rests upon totally
different considerations from that Of the
tn street railroad, for then the Com
missioners have Q grant Of power for
certain purposes, and are compelled to act in
furtherance Of an express grant to the rail-
read company. This identical question, he
says, was before him during the last
Inauguration, and he held the Commissioners
had no power to grant the permission. He I'D.
heres to his position taken at that
time and says the Commissioners
have no power in the premises and Congress
alone can grant the permission, as it did in
the case Of the Baltimore and Ohio.
