TWQ WQQARTHTs,
sjal. Floors Mat. I'm SIX Rounds Pune
ishtng him Terribly.

New York, April 5.-The battle for
featherweight championship OF America,
$500 side and purse of 5000, between
Cal. Mccarthy, OF Jersey City, and Mat.
McCarthy-Ed. Holske's Philadelphia
Unknown-took place tonight at a resort
not far from this city, on Long Island.
Cal. was declared the winner, after
punching the Philadelphia mans head
and face almost to mass OF bleeding
flesh in ak rounds. The Philadelphia
boy has good reputation as boxer but
never had any experience as . finish
fighter. He is % years old, stands feet
Az inches tall and weighs 113 pounds.
Gal. Mccarthy has record of never hav-
ing been defeated. This WAS his twenty
sixth battle His age is 81 years, and
he stands feet 2 inches in height,
weighing LA pounds. Both boys were
in the pink of condition.
The Philadelphia boy proved nothing
more or less than chopping block. In
the first round the betting was 100 to
40 on CAL, and he scored dozen clean,
left-hand jabs on his opponents jaw and
face, without q return. During the see-
ond, third and fourth rounds it looked
only matter of time before the little
Jersey man would knock Mat out. The
latter was bleeding and swollen on the
face and neck, and both eyes were
closing. The fifth round was thought to
be the last, but Holske's man proved
himself very game. In the sixth and
last round Cal. met him full on the neck
with a desperate left and right double
handed blow, and he went down. Just
as time was up, he.was on his feet, stag
gering all over. Frazer held up the
sponge to indicate that his man was
through, and the referee awarded the
battle to Cal.

NBALTIMoRE, July 11.-Colonel William
P. Zollinger, a well-known merchandise
broker, ex-commander of the Fifth Mary
land Infantry and an ex-Confederate
officer, shot himself this after
noon with ducking gun at his
residence. He had only short time before
to his room remarked that he intended
later a report was heard and he
was found lying across his bed writhing in
agony, the contents of the weapon having.
entered his abdomen. The family claim
that his death was the result of an acci-
dent, but it is the general belief
that the Colonel committed suicide.
He was formerly a man of vigorous
health and fine physique, but recently had
been a severe sufferer from dyspepsia, from
which he could obtain little relief. He
spent to-day with his sister in the country
and upon his return complained of his ILL.,
health and appeared greatly depressed.
Colonel Zollinger was AZ years old and
a native of Harrisburg, Pa. During the
war he served with distinction in the Third
Maryland Confederate Regiment. He
later took command of a company in the
Fifth Maryland Infantry, and rose to the
Colonelcy. He commanded the regiment
during the great labor riots of 1877, which
began here and extended all over the coun-
try, and rendered valuable service in quell-
ing the rioters on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad,

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM To THE DIsrArcH.l

DAS@
NEW YORK, July 1.-THE charge of un-
fairness made against Mr.. j. B. Haggin by
Mr.. Phil Dwyer in tine Judges stand at
Monmouth Park on Tuesday has prompted
Mr.. Haggin to make an offer to run his
chestnut colt Salvador against any Of the
competitors for the Lorillard stakes for a sum
equal to the am cunt of the stakes won by him,
which was over $4,000
Even without this offer the charge against
Mr.. Haggin would probably not have lived
long, for few horsemen believe that he would
deliberatelyset about So risky piece of work
as fouling several running horses. and thereby
risking the lives of the jockeys upon them.
This seems especially unlikely when Salvador,
in the opinion of betting men, had a pretty
sure thing of it Brant, the jockey who rode
the colt Kern, is only stable boy. and the gen.
eral impression is that his lack of experience
prevented him from properly handling his
mount, and that the colt bolted across the
track in spite of him. That this antic on the
part of the colt dangerously fouled Erie, Jubal
and Longstreet is, of course, beyond question,
but that Mr.. Haggin put Brant on Kern with
orders to foul dangerous rivals of Salvador is
not generally credited.

BOSTON. MASS, July ia cold east rain
prevented the game to-day The Pittsburgs
have again been compelled to seek the physi-
cIan's aid. Sunday was injured by sliding, and
is at the Westminster Hotel, New York, in
good care. He had a carbuncle removed from
his right hip yesterday and it will be several
days before he can be removed to Pittsburg.
Carroll was sent home yesterday, after having
an abscess cut from his hand caused by a
bruise of bone. Tonight Morris was exam
ined by the Boston clubs physician DR.. Sted-
man. and 1t was found that he has strained one
of the cords in his stomach, and whether 1t will
be an abscess or a touch of hernia cannot be
determined for day or two, but he was ordered
to rest until the lump and pain entirely disap-
pear. 1t is the result of the pain he complained
of in the Fourth of July game. He will return
to Pittsburg on Sunday. Smith. who has recov-
cred from a severe attack of cholera morbus
will play right field tomorrow. Rowe is show
ing up quite well, but White is sadly out of
practice; but few days will bring both around
in shape.
President Nimick, who has been with the
club yesterday and to-day, left for Pittsburg
tonight, and will send Beckley. Maui and
Conway to Washington for Mondays game.
The boys have felt very much discouraged at
their misfortune after having Just recovered
from serious streak of ill luck. Garfield had
no practice in Wednesdays game and no COM
mand of speedy ball, and was compelled to use
slow delivery in order to get the bali over the
plate. He was cool and gives good promise.
He will practice every day. Calvin and Miller,

burg's batteries. They leave here for Wash
ington Sunday afternoon. To-day's game will
be played off here on Friday, September 6, by

Colored Man Pounds His Adver-
sary Almost to InscnsibiIity.
CHICAGO, July liza bloody slugging
match took place in Chicago tonight with
out even the show Of, interference made by
the Mississippi authorities in the Sui
livan-Kilrain affair. About 1000 per-
sons were present. and the match
was brought to an end by the
outery of some of the spectators that one of
the combatants was being killed. The
fighter, whom it was feared might slay his
opponent outright was the giant negro,
Peter jackson, of Australia. His victim
was Caucasian, the well-known pugilist.
"Sailor" Brown.
jackson had agreed to "stop" Brown in
six rounds, and large wagers had been laid
on each of the men. The affair was an
nounced to be in aid of the striking miners
at Braidwood, and was ostensibly to be a
harmless boxing match. A tip was out,
however, that it was to be fight for blood.
Persons who came for gore we're re-
assured when the gloves were seen
to be of the two-ounce hard
variety and all the paraphernalia of the
prize ring was lugged in. Though Jack
SON weighed 200 and Brown but 100, the
latter pressed the fighting furiously until
uC " ds pOuuuCd dlluOcb lubO luScuoiUlilby.
At the first onslaught jackson, in backing
away, accidentally fell over the ropes off the
platform, and was guyed by the crowd as a
''nigger," etc. On the negro's return Brown
met him with rapid succession of blows.
Jackson, however. stopped them easily, and
went at the "Sailor" hammer and tongs,
driving him around the ring repeatedly.
When the three minutes allowed for q
round were ended, Mr.. Brown was virtually
hors-de-combat. Jackson came to the
scratch with a savage look on his face.
Brown was very groggy, but pressed the
fighting as before. The black fellow,
with his long reach, easily repelled all
attack and time and again knocked Brown
head over heels only to find the irrepressi-
BILE "Sailor" rise up once more like an
automaton. In this and the succeeding
round the efforts of Brown were pitiable.
He was bleeding proiusely and unable
to raise his hands. The man was too dazed
to realize the punishment: he was getting.
Master of Ceremonies McAvoy put an end
the miserable business efore the fourth be-
gan, awarding the fight to Jackson, though
Browns seconds were preparing to put the
wretched Sailor" to the front again.
About 81, 900, it is estimated, was netted for
the starving miners.

LAGUERRE STILL LIVELY.
He Kicks Up Another Row In the French
Chamber of Depuries.

PARIS, July 1.-The Chamber of Depu-
tiss to-day was again the scene of great dis
order. M. LIE Herisse assailed the Govern
ment, accusing it of violating the law by
the recent arrests of Boulangists at Anoue-
leme. NJ. Laguerre stigmatized the affair
as trap laid for himself and friends. The
High Court, he said, was a parody on JUS
tice. The President OF the Chamber called
M. Laguerre to order. The speaker, how
ever, proceeded, using abusive language
against NJ. Constans, the Minister of the
Interior. The President then proposed that
the House refuse the speaker further hear
ing. The proposal was approved and NJ.
Laguerre was ordered to resume his seat
He declined, however, to leave the tribune.
An uproar arose and the President left
the chamber. while the public galleries
were cleared. The sitting was resumed
after an hours adjournment. M. Laguerre
still occupied the tribune. The President
thereupon censured NJ. Laguerre and ex-
cluded him temporarily from the chamber.
The sitting was closed at 5:15 P. M. NJ. La
guerre defantly remained on the tribune
until 6 o'clock, suspicious that the house
would resume business. When he left the
Boulangist group saluted him with cheers,
which were drowned by storm of Kisses
and cries of 'To the river with him." The
police we're obliged to guard the carriage in
which he departed. Several persons were
arrested.
