A Fierce Fight.

ASHLAND, Wis, April 5.-A fierce prize
fight was held in Vermillion last night.
The contestants were burly woodsman
named Peck, well-known over the upper
peninsula as rrough!-andl-tumble fighter,
and teacher of boxing, known as "Cow-
boy'' Wilson. Wilson was twenty pounds
lighter than Peck. Wilson was really
knocked out in the third round, and
wanted 10 quit, but "a revolver in the
hands of his hackers convinced him that
he had better try it again. In the next
three rounds he attempted to rush things,
and was knocked down seven times. In
the seventh round he was knocked un-
conscious, and remained SO for half an
hour. Peck was hardly scratched.

ABOUT TOWN.
A Dead Infant Found in the
River Bottom.
Its Head Was Severed From
the Body.
A Mexican Thrown From His Wagon
by Passenger Train.
The State Medical Association to Meet
Here Next Week-Other Interesting
Local Items.

About s O'Clock yesterday morning the
headless body of newly-born child was
discovered in the bed of the river just
below the First-street bridge, on the
sand between the levee and the water,
by a teamster who was hauling sand
The police were notified, and they in
turn informed the Coroner, who at once
took charge of the tiny body and ordered
a post mortem examination to be made.
Drs. Choate and McCarty performed this
duty, and found that the child had been
still-born; but this does not in any way
account for the fact that it's head had
been severed from its body. When first
discovered the dead child's nude trunk
was lying about two feet from the head,
which was crushed in from behind. 1t
was conjectured that some person had
hurled it from the bridge during the
night, the intention being to throw it
into the running water, but owing to a
miscalculation it had fallen to the left
onto the bank where it was subsequently
discovered.
The Coroner has postponed the hold
ing of an inquest upon the body, until
the matter can be more fully investi-
gated. The police were very reticent
about the affair last night, and the Chief,
when questioned as to what had been
discovered by the detectives, refused to
divulge anything. 1t was subsequently
learned, however, that the mother of the
child was the wife Of an artisan, VINO
had been out OF work for several months
and already had family of six children
to provide for. The child was operated
upon by two surgeons before its birth,
and after the medical men had departed,
the father of the dead infant, being un-
able to bear the expense of funeral,
dropped it, as he thought, irto the river,
expecting that it would be carried down
to the ocean. As there is nothing of a
criminal nature about the affair. the
matter will in all probability be dropped.

New YORK, April 6.-According to the
Star of this date, report has been in
circulation that the Atchison directors
could not trace the whereabouts of &c, 900
shares of Atchison stock, and that this
amount of stock was in the pos

to the rumor, Gould was about to mar
shall sufficient following among the
Atchison stockholders, together with his
own holdings, to unseat the present
management. Colonel McCook, counsel
and director OF the Atchison company,
said Saturday that the present manage
ment has alreadyreceived proxies for more
than majority of the shares. The vot-

assented 10 by the majority Of the stock

ANN ARBoR, Mich, April 5.--several

rush. Postmaster Duffy tried to quiet
them, when they rushed him outside

A crowd arrived outside and the doors
were locked, no more mail being given

making considerable noise until Mar
shall Walsh marched one of the boys to

Antonio Manrico Drives IN front OF
Passenger Train.
Antonio Manrico, an old Mexican ran
chero, while driving a team and wagon
across the Southern Pacific track at the
Seventh-street crossing, at Santa Monica,
was struck by the morning passenger
train from this city, and seriously, if not
fatally, injured.
The old man was apparently deceived
in his judgment of the speed at which
the train was advancing, for in spite of
the drivers warning whistle, he at
tempted to urge his horse across the
rails. The engine struck the front
wheels Of the wagon, killing the horse
and pushing the old man and the
wrecked vehicle for some 200 yards be-
fore the train was brought to stand
still. Manrico was still alive when
picked up, but terribly bruised and cut,
and his recovery is very doubtful.
