THE PUGILISTS.
A Stubborn Fight Between Chicago BruiSerS.
Carney and MeAulide.

ELBY Qnd.). April 9.-Abe Cougle and
Jimmie Dahoney, two Chicago pugilists,
fought fifty-four bloody rounds near here
this morning. At the call OF ''time" for the
fifty-ffth round both men were completely
exhausted and the referee declared the fight
draw. The fight, which was one of the
best contested seen in the vicinity of
Chicago for some time. was for $500 side,
the winner to take 70 per cent Of the gate
receipts. From the very start it was plain
that both men were in deadly earnest and
that the fight would be for "blood." Cougle
and after that blood flowed freely from
both men. Each led for the head and face.
The consequence was that Dahoney's head
was swollen till it looked like washtub,
and the left side of Cougle's face was out of
all proportion. The ring became slippery
from the blood in the last round, and the
men could scarcely keep their footing.

A CAUCUS.
Republican Members Of the
House to Confer.
A Programme to Be Arranged for The Con-
SideratiOn Of Pending Bills.
The Tariff Measure Nearly Ready to Be Sub
mitted for Debate-A Few Minor
Changes to Be Made.
Special by the California Associated Press.

WASHINGTON, April 9.-The Republican
| members of the House will meet in caucus
Tomorrow to determine upon the order of
business. At this meeting it is expected
tLat the silver and pension questions and a
lew other propositions will be considered
and programme arranged for the order
OF procedure in consideration of pending
measures.
| There is report that this caucus is called
fer the purpose Of passing upon the Tariff
| Bill, but this is not correct. The Republ-
| can members of the Committee on Ways
and Means do not consider that it is ex-
| pedlent at this time to submit their bill to
caucus, particularly as the measure has not
been printed for general distribution among
the members, and they have had no chance
te examine its provisions. The committee
called meeting this morning at which the
Dill with the changes that have been made
since it was reported to the full committee
was submitted to the minority, and an un-
derstanding was reached that at the regular
meeting tomorrow the bill shall be acted
| upon, the minority TO have an opportunity
| OF proposing such amendments as they may
| desire.
So far as the majority of the members are
| concerned the bill may now be said to be
couplete lew VerDal changes were made
this afternoon, and it is probable from the
disposition exhibited by the minority that
| no obstacle will be presented to reporting
| the bill to the House tomorrow. No deci-
slpn has been reached as to when the House
| WILL be asked to take the bill up for cOnsid-
! GRAFTON, nor has any decision been made
as to the duration of the general debate.
1t Is believed, however, that the general
debate will not extend beyond four or five
! days. An examination of the bill shows
| that the items transferred to the free list
| yielded last year in duties over $1,000, 600,
| and that estimates of the duties under the
| Dill on the basis of last years importations
would have yielded nearly S234, ,00O. 600
against S221, 100000 collected. The duties
under the bill would increase the revenues
from the various schedules as follows:
| Tobacco, about SS,000,000; agricultural
| products, S1l 900, coo; fax, jute and hemp,
| S5,OO0,000; wool and its manufactures,
| S15,000,000, and sundries, S3,000,000. The
reduction on sugar would be 81, 100000.
! This is the only schedule which shows any
| reduction worth noticing.
| a paragraph will be added to the bill be-
fore it is reported providing that all goods,
wares and merchandise. the product of con-
yict labor in foreign countries shall be ex-

HOMES AT STAKE.
1 Land Decision That Affects Hundreds Of
Iowa Farmers.

FORT DODGE Qowa), April 9.-In 1858 the
State of Iowa decided TO the Des Moines
River Navigation Company every alternatB
section Ofland in the State within six miles
OF Des MOines River. About the same
time many settlers located on the same
lands and received patents from the United
States.
For years the matter has run, and sever al
cases were brought against the company by
settlers who were eycted, but the settlers
we're defeated. Then, at its previous ses-
sion, when hundreds Of farmers were being
eYlcted from their farms all through Ham,
llton, Boone and Webster counties, Con-
gress ordered the Attorney General to com
mence a suit directly against tile River and
Land Company in the name of the Govern
ment, which is set for trial at the June
term in this city.
Edwin Litchfeld, the principal claimant
and holder of the river lands, then petit
toned the United States court to enjoin the
collection OF $4,000 taxes in the counties
named. The case has just been heard at
Council Bluffs, and an opinion given by
Judges Shlras and Love refusing to grant
an injunction in the following language:
The lands taxed, or to be taxed, belong 10 In.
complainant as be claims. II has been repeat
edly adludged by the Supreme Court OF the
United States that tire lands In question are

the Supreme Court already made shall remain

Liichhed, and lie Will but pay taxes on his

assume, and cannot assume, that The Supreme
Court Of the United States VIII swerve or change
It's adjudication regarding these lands On the
contrary, II would appear TO the Court that the
adJudlcatlons which so far establish complain

we cannot assume that they VIII be overturned
merely because proceedings are taken at the
Instance Of the Attorney General Arising re-
molely and somewhat indirectly, to impeaeh the
eomplalnanPs title, as now pending. Hence the
Coart thinks that The danger which the plaintiff
seeks TO avoid Is an uncertain contingent, and In
our view rather imaginary than otherwise We

which Is well known TO the Court, 10 warrant us
In the conclusion that any irIeparable injury, or
any injury whatever, VIII ultimately arise 10 the
complainant from the payment Of taxes.
This decision is considered to be final
here, and will deprive fully 500 farmers in
Athe counties named of their lands, ON which
they have lived for years and spent hun
dreds of thousand of dollars in improving.
Fully 10000 acres of the best lands in this
vicinity are affected by the decision, and
are worth hundreds of thousands of dol
lars. Trouble and evictions will be neces-
sary to obtain possession of the lands.

A Big DEAL.
Vanderbilt Thought 10 Have Secured Con-
troll Of the Union Pacific.

New YORK. April 9.-It is rumored that
the Vanderbits have secured control of the
Union Pacific. This is supposed to account
for the noticeable strength of that stock.
The Nanderbilts have long desired to OBJ
tain 4 western connection for the New
York Central and Lake Shore roads. There
is believed TO be considerable foundation
for the rumor. Officials here are Ion-com-
initial regarding the alleged deal.
The Times says: The annual meeting of
the Union Pacific Company is close at
hand. There are whispered suggestions in
Wall street that developments of great i'm
portance will take place at that meet
Vanderbilts have acquired influential
interests in the property, ana some state
ments represent that full control will pass
into YanderbiltS hands. The prediction of
the Vanderbilt control of the Union Pa
cifc property is not new. 1t was
heard and vouched for, semi-officially,
just before the annual meeting last May,
but there suddenly arose some obstacle to
the plans that were then undoubtedly ar
ranged. 1t is declared that the Van

the fact that it would be considered
lnadylsa0le to have it known pending Con-
gressional readjustment of the Union

that the knowledge that Vanderbilts
would have invited a savage opposition to
any liberal settlement. The value Of the
Union Pacific property to the Vanderbilts
was lately made very clear by the Vanderbilts
themselves, who have brought about the
close alliance between it aud their Chi
cago and Northwestern road. This alli-
ance is of Importance beyond any other
transaction in the railway world during re-
cent years.

SCRANTON. April 9.-The town of May

Glenwood mine. 1t began this morning,
and is still in progress. The residences
of Edmund Edmunds and Mrs. Eliza
beth Edwards were overturned and caught
fire, but the flames were speedily checked.
The cave continued to increase in size and
depth until this afternoon. when it was over
100 feet square and 90 feet deep. Several
buildings have been swallowed in the
clasm. All the efforts of the full force of
the cumpany's workmen to fill up the place
with lumber and debris are unavaiing and
people are busy moving away their furni-
ture. 1t is feared the entire place is doomed
to collapse during the night
