THOSE BREwERIEs.
The Philadelphia Brewery Not Sold to
the English Syndicate.

SAN Francisco, October 1Sth.-It is ru-
mored here that the Philadelphia Brewery
had been sold to English capitalists and
that the purchase price was So, ,000, 600; that
$50 600 cash had been paid down; that
deeds had been drawn and signed by all
the Wieland heirs, and that several other
breTeries are now bonded, preparatory to
baing turned over to that same syndicate.
R J. Wieland denies that any such state
of affairs exists. He says, however. that
an English syndicate has been trying to
purchase the brewery and the Wieland
family stated that they would sell it for
IS 100000, but not cent less. In July Mr..
Wiswall, who represented the English syn
dicate, desired to examine the books of the
business. Mr.. Wieland would not consent
to allowing any examination to be made
till $25, 600 was paid for the privilege. The
money was handed over and the account
ant went to work, and at the end of his
task he communicated with his employers.
The result was an offer OF s., 500, 900, which
was refused. Then came offers of s., ,600,
600, 81 700 600 and at last 81 800 900. All were
declined. The last offer was made only
last Wednesday. Mr.. Wieland is of the
opinion that the syndicate has received op-
tions on the National and United States
Brew cries.
E A Denicke, President of the Freder-
icksburg Brewery, states that he has had
no conversation with anyone about selling
the brewery, and, furthermore, il is not for
sale at any price.

Two Men in England Allowed to Make
Brutes of Themselves.
LONDON, October 1Slh-The Australian
sports are carrying everything before them.
The champion, Ffank Slavin, easily beat
Jim Goode, the English pugilist, in five
rounds last night. The result was a great
surprise to Goodies hackers, who had bet
heavily on his winning.
The match was decided at Astiey's The
ater, Westminster. When the men started
it soon became apparent that there was
plenty of fun in store. Slayin, who tow
cred over his opponent, was the first to re-
ceiye, Goode getting in two terrific blows
on his adyersary's face. So hot did Goode
make the pace that the affair looked like
ending in double quick time.
In the third round, however, Slavin
brought Goode down on one knee, and
from this point took the lead. The Aus
tralian put in some furnishing work on
Goodies body with his right. At the end
of the round Goode was evidently in dis
tress and badly winded by the severe right
handlers which he had received under the
ribs.
Pluckily forcing work, however, he
brought forth cheers from all Corners by
twice reaching the Australians face with
his left. This, however, was but an expir-
ing effort, and Slavin, after forcing his adj
versary all around the ring, delivered ter
rife right-hander on the point of the jaw.
Goode was knocked out and Slavin declared

Emperor William Will View the Russian
Army aTaneuvers.
BERLIN, October 1Sth.--Court reports ap-
pearing in newspapers of this city credit
the Gar with thanking Prince Bismarck for
supporting protests to the Swiss Government
against the harboring CT Anarchists, and
assuring the Chancellor that the statements
regarding General Obrutscheff's recon-
mendation of double lines of strategic rail-
ways in Russia were false.
Prince Bismarck assured the Gar that
Germany was as little concerned regarding
Bulgaria as he was regarding Russia's plans
in Asia, and that in his view the under
standing between Russia and England
with reference to Asia was desirable and
could easily be obtained.
The Post asserts that the two Emperors,
before separating, arranged for another
meeting, and Emperor William, on invita-
ton of the Gar, agreed to attend the Rus
sian army manoeuvers in 1890.
