ONLY TWO ROUNDS
Required to Knock Out the
Mission Boy.
The Australian Settled Him in
Short Order.
The Much Talked of International
Fight Thing of the Past.
The Battle was Short, Sharp and Decisive
-Slavin the Winner-McAuliffe
Badly Punished.
Associated Press Dispatches. |

LONDON, Sept. 27.-The much talked
of fight between Frank Slavin, the Aus
tralian champion, and Joe McAuliffe,
the American heavy weight pugilist,
took place at the Ormond club, at
O'Clock this morning. In order to bring
the contest within the limits of the law,
gloves weighing six ounces, instead of
four ounces, were used, and the number
of rounds was reduced from thirty to
fifteen. The hour of the fight was kept
secret in order to avoid mob crowding
access to the Ormond club, the main
door of which was guarded with the
greatest vigilance.
Slavin, accompanied by Lewis, his
manager, and Start, his trainer, arrived
at the club house at O'Clock last even
ing and went to bed. McAuliffe, attend
ed by his trainer, Billy Madden, and his
manager, Richard K. Fox, came later
and took shorter rest than his oppo-
nent.
At l o'clock in the morning the sport
ing celebrities began to assemble at the
scene of the fight. Among the noted
ones were Lord Marcus Beresford, Count
Kinskic, Hon. M. Gleville, Pony Moore,
Charles Mitchell and Charles Archer.
At 8 80 O'Clock the men were awak-
ened by their trainers and thoroughly
sponged down and rubbed, and each re-
ceived stimulant in the form of an
egg flip.
At four o'clock the doors OF the gym
nasium were opened and the ring ropes
were speedily surrounded. Both ap-
peared to be in splendid condition.
McAuliffe was the first to enter the ring.
He had for his seconds Jack Burke and
Billy Madden. Slavin was attended by
Jem Carney ard M. Mccarthy. When
the referees took their positions and
time was called, betting was to on
Slavin.
At about O'Clock the two principals
entered the ring, followed by their
seconds. At the call of time both men
advanced at once to the centre of the

OF the changes made in the agri-
cultural schedules, the conferees' report
says: "In the agricultural schedule
the house rate is mainly retained on
oranges, lemons and lines, which the
house made dutiable at double the
present rates, in order to afford
protection and encouragement to
the planters of California and Florida.
The senate reduced the rates somewhat,
but leaves them above the present laws,
The house conferres yielded reluctantly.
An amendment was added to that of
the senate imposing an additional duty
OF 30 per cent on packages in which
oranges, lemons and lines are imported.
The paragraphs inserted by the senate
imposing discriminating duty of 10
per cent on tea, the product of countries
east OF the Cape of Good Hope, when
imported from countries east of the
Cape OF Good Hope, is stricken out.
The senate struck out the bounty pro-
visions proposed in the silk schedule bill
passed by the house.
In the liquor schedule the senate made
increases On various forms of wines and
liquors. The house rates were restored,
SaSOPo oii ShoAiPslShC tIQ opIllUS, lcdN-
ing still wines and malt liquors at the
existing rates of duty.
The conferees, speaking OF the effect
of the bill on the revenues. say they do
not believe there is any mate rial differ
ence between the house and the senate
bills, in the matter of the estimated re-
duction made in the dutiable schedule,
namely $50, 900, 900, and their action has
not materially affected that estimate,
except in the restoration of the internal
revenue provisions of the house, and of
that point they say:
For the year ending June 80, 1890, the
receipts from special taxes on the class of
persons to be relieved by the bill, were
$1,5I5, ,481; from taxes on tobacco, $1S,-
235 ,4S2, and from snuff, $737, ,73l. By
the passage of the bill the reduction in
revenue from tobacco will be $4, 5S1 $40,
and from snuff, $1S4, ,433, making from
these sources an aggregate Of "a, 765, 1903.
Adding these figures to the reduction
which would follow in the abolition of
the special taxes, would make total re-
duction in internal revenue receipts of
$6,281, ,284. The probable reduction by
the customs schedules will probably be
about $60, 100000, which would give an
aggregate reduction by the bill OF about
x66 600 O0O

SENATE PROCEEDINGS.
A Number of Bills and Resolutions
Passed.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.-In the senate
today Sherman introduced a bill (re-
ferred to the committee on appropria-
tions,) appropriating $4,000 for the
purchase for the use of the senate, of
the Maltby house at the corner of New
Jersey avenue and B street, northwest,
with the vacant lot on the north side
of it. He said the reason why its pur-
chase had been so long delayed was
that there had been litigation as to
the title.
The conference report for the estab-
lishment of 2,000-acre park in the
District Of Columbia, was passed.
The house resolution appropriating
81 ,000, 900 for the purchase of nickel ore,
or nickel matte, for naval purposes, was
received from the house.
Cameron offered an amendment pro-
viding that such nickel ore or nickel
matte, so purchased, shall be equitably
distributed among contractors of nickel
sheet-armor plating.
After an extended debate Hale con-
sented TO let the joint resolution go
over till tomorrow.
Consideration of the calendar was re-
sumed, and the house bill granting
leave VI dDSouCc UO CleTkS dlu elllplOyccS
of first and secondclass postoffices was
passed.
On motion OF Blair, the House bill to
amend the act to prohibit the importa-
tion and immigration OF foreigners and
aliens under contract or agreement to
perform labor, was taken from the cal
endar.
Plumb moved to amend the fifth sec
ton which provides that the act shall
not apply to professional actors, artists,
etc., by inserting before the word ''arti-
cles'', the words musical or otherwise
Agreed to.
Carlisle moved to substitute for the
words regularly ordained ministers of
the gospel, the words regularly or
dained OF constituted ministers of relig-
ion", and said without that amendment
the bill would exclude Jewish rabbis.
Agreed to.
Plumb moved to insert after the words
ARTISTS the word musicians. :"
Agreed to.
Plumb offered an amendment that the
bill shall not apply to any organization
of musicians or orchestra's.
The bill went over till tomorrow, leav-
ing the last amendment unacted upon,
and the senate resumed consideration of
the bill to establish United States land
courts. Without action the senate ad-

THE TIPPERARY TRIAL.
Dilatory Tactics Pursued by the Court
and the Crown.

DUBLIN, Sept. 26.-The streets of Tip.
perary were thronged with people till a
late hour last night, discussing the ex.
citing events of the day. The situation
this morning is much more tranquil
than yesterday. The streets are still
thronged with people laboring under
suppressed excitement, but there has
been no collision with the police. The
authorities are taking special precaution
to guard against the possibility of an
outbreak. Detachments of soldiers are
assisting the police in maintaining
order.
The session of the court was OF short
duration this morning. The presiding
magistrate announced that it would be
impossible to 60 on with the cases as
the judge of the county court required
the building. 1t would, therefore, be
necessary to adjourn further proceed
ings until the afternoon.
Before the magistrate could declare
the court adjourned, Timothy Healy
sprang to his feet and in the name OF
the defendants offered an earnest pro-
test against adjournment. 1t was not
right, he urged, that the magistrates in
such case should suit their actions to
the convenience of the county court.
The judge OF that tribunal should be
the one to yield instead OF insisting on
his right in the premises.
Healy's protest was unavailing. AS
soon as he resumed his seat the court
adjourned until afternoon.
When the court reopened in the after
noon, Roman proceeded with state
ment OF the crowns case againgt the
accused men. He read long extracts
from speeches made'at various Nation
alist meetings since the Inauguration of
the plan of campaign.
William O'Brien chaffingly reminded
Rowan that his ship was to sail for
America on Thursday next.
When the court adjourned, Ro-
nan was still speaking. Timothy
Harrington made strong pro-
test against the course being pursued
by the prosecution. The protest, how
ever, had no effect upon the court, and
the present policy of the prosecution
will, it is generally believed, be main
tanned to the end OF the trial.

THE BURCHELL TRIAL.
The Prosecution Ends It's Evidence and
the Defense Begins.

I
the Defense Begins.
WOODSTOCK, Ont, Sept. 26.-Miss
Cromwell, of Eastwood, was the first
witness in the Burchell trial today. She
testified that on February 18th she went
to the station to meet some friends
who were to come in on
the 3 O'Clock train. She met
Burchell in lane coming from
Brantford road to the station. His
shoes were muddy, and his trousers
| rolled up. He entered the station and
bought ticket for Hamilton. She had
no doubt as to his identity with the
prisoner.
James Hayward, of Eastwood, testi-
fed that he was at the station on the
day in question and saw Miss Smith
there; he also noticed that Burchall' s
trousers were rolled up.
Henry Jones, a porter at Eastwood
station, corroborated Hayward's evil
dence, as did Mary Swaize, also.
George Hay, a brakeman on the
Grand Trunk road, swore positively that
he saw Burchell get on at Eastwood and
saw him last at Niagara Falls.
After two other witnesses were exam
ined, Osler said this was all the evidence
against the prisoner.
In the afternoon the witnesses for the
defense began.
John Robb heard two shots in the
swamp about dusk, and shortly after
saw a man come out, followed by an
! other. A peighbor, Mrs. Schultz, cor.
| roborrated this story.
John Burgh saw two men going east on
the Governors road and took them on
his wagon to point opposite Perry
place, from where they went on east.
Neither of them was the prisoner.
Farmer Oliver said two men called at
his house at 3 O'Clock on the morning
OF the 18th of February, saying they
were going to Princetown to buy horses,
and had missed the way.
James Atkinson, of Drumbo, said two
men giving the names of Culwell and
Baker, called at his hotel early on the
morning Of the Goth, and asked for
refreshments.
Samuel Straib said Baker and Gull
we'll called at his fathers house Thurs
day before the body was found. Three
other witnesses testified that they
thought the body was that of man
who had been peddling polish about
Woodstock, but were not sure.
Three witnesses familiar with the
swamp testified that there is no such
trail as referred to in the former evil
dence, as leading from the second point
to the place of finding the body.
Adjourned until tomorrow.

OUR FALL STOCK.

0UR Fall Stock is now complete, and we
feel confident in making the assertion
~ that we have gathered the choicest
selection of patterns ever brought to
this city. Not only have we tried to select
choice and new patterns, but we have en-
deavored to grade up our stock in make
and fit, by purchasing from the very best
manufacturers, such as: Stein, Block &
Co., of Rochester; Rogers, Peet & Co., of
New York; Hamburger Bros. & Co.. of
Baltimore, and other good makers. The
greater part Of our stock of Boys Clothing
was made by Peck & Hauchaus, of New
York, firm who have been achieving
great success for good wel1-1nade goods,
and who supply Messrs. Roos BROS, of
San Francisco.
1t is our aim to sell the best well-made
goods at popular prices. We are here to
build up big business, and every person
who buys well-nade garment of us that
retains its shape and wears we'll is sure to
come again. We do not claim to be phil
anthropists, but in giving you a better
article than our competitors, at the same
price, we are making money for you as
we'll as ourselves.

Prom the Boston Globe.
The train was due at Springfield about
40 O'Clock. Those who were to get out
there were collecting their baggage. The
hustle woke up the fat-faced passenger,
who turned over and began to talk TO his
companion as follows:
AS was a~-saying, ! gave up the job
after Bill died so unexpectedly. Ike, the
sheriff. I, his deputy, and Bill. the o
lad who was going to be hanged Tor
shooting a United States marshal, were
boys together. Naturally we wanted him
To 20 as easy and as happy as possible.
We fed him from our own table and used
to send clear over to the Corners to get
him whisky and tobacco. No prisoner
ever got treated better than he.
"But somehow he didn't want to die.
So about u week afore he was going to be
hanged he asked me to rig a knife or q
scythe or something sharp over the cross
bar of the gallows, so that when he
| dropped his weight would cut the rope
and he would fall To the ground. l told
him il would he n big fall and he would
be apt to get his legs broken, but he didn't
seem to care so long as he wasn't killed,
and he argued so warm about Il that
consented.
II had the fixing of the rope and all
| that. Two nights before tine execution l
fixed a sharp bush scytbe into a big block,
edge up and took IL up will cross-har n
brought the blight OF the halter right down
across the edges. When | told Bill of il
he was tickled enough. He said h fall
would hurt him so that nobody would try
10 hang him again, and he would get out
in a year or two.
Friday forenoon Ike and l LEAD him
from the jail to the gallows. There was n
big crowd. l can tell you. Bill whispered
20 me that il was the hest joke he ever
heard of, and asked me IL l had padded
his knees and legs so he would not be
hurt too bad by the fall II ~ feet TO the
ground. | told him he could do il like n
parachute.
ale heard the warrant read. spoke his
little piece in good style and then we put
on his black cap and moose, and l led him
under the cross-bar. Hooked at Ike. He
snapped his fingers. l cut the line hold
ing the trap and looked down, expecting
10 see Bill drop clear to the ground among
the crowd. But he didn't. He fell about
ter feet; the rope brought up with q snap.
"And IL held him right there until he
was dead.
THAT dirty Ike of a sheriff had dropped
10 our little game and taken the scythe out
the night before.
"But il was a terrible good joke on poor
Bill. Don't on hin so?"
"Springield" yelled the brakeman,
and the conversation was dropped.
