ALDERMANIC BRIBERY.
The Chicago Grand Jury Developing
SensatiOns-Ex-C Convict Mackin Skins.

SenSatlOnS-Ex-COnVl Mack1n SkIDS.
CHICAGO, June 2S.-The grand jury
today continued investigation into the
charges Of aldermanic bribery in con-
nection with the Lake-street elevated
road, and there were sensational devel-
opments. The alleged affidavits of ex-
Aldermen Wallner and Monear, bearing
the notarial seal and signature of Joseph
G. Mackin, the noted political
''wire-worker," were laid before
Mackin by the grand jury several
days ago, but he professed to
know nothing about them, and the i'm
preston was given that they were
manufactured by his clerk. Today an
intimate friend of the clerk went to the
states attorney and said positively that
the affidavits were drawn by Mackin
and the latter boasted of the fact. A
bailiff was sent out for Mackin, but he
could NOT be found, and the general i'm
preston is that he has absconded to
avoid prosecution for perjury Mackin
was released few months ago from
Joliet prison, where he served a five
year term for manipulating election re-
turns.

PARNELL'S BIRTHDAY.
Banquet in His Honor-Irish Freedom
Dawning.

DaWnIngs
LONDON, June 2S.-A grand banquet
was given tonight by the National Lib
eral Club in honor of Parnell's birthday
Justin Mccarthy presided. Parnell in
an address congratulated his hearers
upon the Gladstonian alliance, and ex-
plated upon the constitutional policy.
Parnell referred to the recent alb
sence of certain Irish members when the
government was nearly defeated, and
excused them. He said it was as much
of a surprise to the Irish party as to the
government. 1t would have been use
notorious fact that the government
opened all the Irish members letters,
and whip would' thus have defeated
its own object. Nevertheless, it was
worthy of remark that the Parnellites
were present in greater strength than
any other party. He was convinced that
the Irish party had not much longer to
wait for its harvest.

THE POWERS AND DUTIES OF THE
COMMISSION DEFINED.
Alternates Not Satisfied With the Part
They are to Play-Mark Mcdonald
Calamity Champions the Women's
Cause.

CHICAGO, Sept. 16.-The national
worlds fair commission today adopted
the report of the committee to define
the powers and duties of the commission,
without change, after considerable dis
cussion. The clause which created the
most debate was this: among the
original and exclusive powers OF the
commission shall be named the
power to allot space for exhibit
ors prepare the classification of
exhibits; determine the plan and scope
OF the exposition; appoint all judges
and examiners for the exposition ;
award all premiums, and generally to
have charge of all intercourse with ex-
hibitors and representatives of foreign
nations.
The alternates from the various states
feel that they are not meeting with
proper recognition from the commits
sion, and after noon adjournment held
a meeting to talk over their
grievances. President Palmer ex-
planned to them that they had no du-
ties or emoluments except in the absence
OF their respective principals, and in
that event would be called on to act and
be paid forsuch service. This is not en-
tirely satisfactory.

lively debate over the adoption of the

through. 1t fixes the status of the exc
cutive committee, etc
Commissioner Mcdonald, of Califor-
MIA, introduced a resolution defining the
duties and compensation OF the board of
lady managers. A motion was immedi-
ately made to refer the resolution, the
committee to report at some future
time. This would virtually kill the
project to have women associated in the
management OF the fair Mcdonald was
aroused in an instant and made
ringing speech which was
the feature OF the session. He
insisted that the subject should 60 to
the judiciary committee with instruc-
tions to report not later than Thursday.
He was proud that under this govern
ment women received greater considera-
ton and more respect than from
any government on earth, and asked an
emphatic vote in favor of immediate
action.

unanimously adopted.

ANNEXATION TO THE UNITED

The Question One of the Live Issues of
the Day and Openly Advocated by One
of the Government Organs.

OTTAWA, Sept. 16.-The fact can no
longer be disputed that the annexation
question is fast becoming one of the live
issues OF the day. The leading public
men have not hesitated to call attten-
tion to the increasing popularity of the
movement for closer trade and social re-
lations with the United States. One OF
the government organs has come out
seuarely for separation from England
The Quebec Telegraph says:
III we are permitted to gauge the cur
rent of events in Canada, we think an
nexation to the United States is making
great headway among the people. 1t is
coming, and that before long. Sir John
may preach all kinds of doctrines he
may climb up on Johnny Bulls back
and become the last on earth to accept
the platform, but dollars and cents will
bring it about. The Mckinley
bill is passed by large majority, and
that deals hard blow to the commerce
of Canada. England, we are told, is as
ready to give up Canada and New
Foundland as Heligoland.
"We are positive that at least this
part OF the country would be in thriv-
ing condition if we had America merged
into one generation of federation. A few
days ago the stars and stripes were
raised over the custom house in Mon
treal, and now they are flying over the
grounds of the Toronto exhibition.
What is to prevent them from being
raised over the nation at some future
period? Something must be done,
because we cannot stand this tariff tink-
ering at Ottawa any longer. This coun-
try is, in plain words, going to old Nick
and if at the next general election the
reformers do not become aware of the
situation, we will be starved out of
existence by the United States tariff.
England is neither a mother nor a
friend to us. We have f1attered her too
much, and now is the time, when one
of her great grandchildren is here, that
we should talk as plainly as possible of
the situation.
eff the capitalists of London can buy
up the great stock companies of the
United States; if they can place millions
of dollars in with the plans of that coun-
try; if they are scared to invest single
dollar in British securities, then let us
annex, so as to secure their aid and
hand"
The article has caused decided sem
sation here. The government officials
state thatsu reasonable and seditious
language should not be overlooked.

130@ and Carroll 1929 pounds. The
purse was $4,000, of which $500 went to
the loser. The police insisted on five
ounce gloves.
In the first two rounds there was no
material advantage on either side,
Bowen having the best of it, if any
thing.
In the third, fourth and fifth Carroll
was on top, landing several severe blows
on Bowen's face and body, although he
was pretty we'll dazed himself from
punches in the stomach and on the nose.
In the sixth, both men were tired, but
Bowen succeeded in knocking Carroll
down with right hand swing, nearly
repeating it a moment later with right
handler on the jaw.
From this to the fifteenth round hon
ors were about even, some hard blows
being received by both men, each of
them seeming pretty weary.
In the fifteenth, Carroll knocked
Bowen down with terrible right
handler. Bowen got up, but Carroll was
too weak to finish. him,
In the sixteenth both received punish
ment, and in the seventeenth Carroll
gave tremendous punch in the stom-
ach to Bowen, in return for a stinger on
the neck, and also drew first blood from
Bowen's nose. Bowen clinched and
they fell, Carroll on top.
In the eighteenth, Bowen hit Carroll
on the eye, cutting it and receiving
in return blow on the nose, which
felled him.
In the nineteenth, Bowen was very
weak, and Carroll, getting his second
wind. gave Bowen several severe blows
In the twentieth, Bowen tried hard to
steady himself and managed to avoid a
Knockout, but in the twenty-first Car
roll landed right and left and Bowen fell
exhausted. He rose again, but fell i'm
mediately, and then was counted out.
He was terribly punished but made no
complaint, having done the best he
could. He showed great gameness and
was loudly applauded. Carroll was un-
hurt, save slight cut and swollen up
per lip. Time, one hour an twenty-four
minutes.
