FIGHTS AND FIGHTERS.
The Crescent City Full Of PugilIsts-
Dempsey, Fitzsimmons Et Al.

The Crescent City Full of Pugilists-
Dempsey, Fitxsimmons Et Al.
New ORLEANS, Jan. 12.-Dempsey and
Fitzsimmons and their parties came to
town tonight. Frank Stevenson is put
ting his money on Dempsey. He thinks
Kilrain can whip Corbett and that
Jackson has the cinch on Corbett.
He does not say this from pre-
judice, but because California
friends, who know the men, say SO. The
last betting posted today was $1,000 to
5000 that Dempsey would win, with no
takers. By Wednesday it will probably
be 3 to on Dempsey.
WILL THE AUTHORITIES INTERFERE?
Attorney-General Rogers and Governor
Nichols had long consultation as to
whether they would interfere in the
Dempsey -Fitzsimmons fight. They
would not divulge the result OF their
conference, but it is understood the au-
thorities will probably interfere to pre-
vent q finish fight. The attorney
general said tonight he would
Immediately take steps to forfeit the
charter of the Olympic club and similar
clubs, on the grounds that they have
violated the grant of the state and have
used their franchises to violate the laws
of the state. 1t is evident that the
state holds under any arrangement that
the state laws are violated, and holding
these grounds it will act decisively.
A sEvEN-RoUND MILL.
There was fighting crowd at the
Audubon club tonight, to witness bat
tie between Doc O'Connell and Eddie
Conley, of Boston, for a $1,000 purse and
the welter weight championship.
Jim Sweeney was chosen referee,
and James Corbett and Howe Hodg-
kins, Of Boston, were behind Conley,
while James F. Carroll and his fellow
chum looked after Docs interests. It
was a hard fight from the start. Conley
seemed the winner in the second round,
but Doc. gained strength as the fight
progressed, and succeeded in knocking
Conley out in the seventh round.

He States His Terms and VIII Permit
No Further Parleying.
ST. Louis, Mo-, Jan. IA Post-Dis-
patch special from Pine Ridge Agency
reads: General Miles determined this
morning not to parley nor confer again
with the Indians, and this morning sent
a messenger to the hostiles camped at
the mission, stating his terms. He
said they must come into the agency in
small squads and 60 into camp on
grounds near the friendly Indians. He
would not object If they choose their
own camping grounds, but the Brules
and the Ogalallas must not camp to-
gether, and they must submit to the
laws governing the reservation and to
the agent. It is. learned from official
sources that this is General Miles, final
action. Ii the Indians do not accent
these terms, Miles will 20 after them.
and there will be fight sure. The In.
dians at the mission, six miles away.
and Father Jute made an arrangement
with General Miles for Conference
with the chiefs this morning. 1t is ex-
pected that the Indians will come in.
either as friends or hostiles, and the
conference may determine which.
Father !nte came to the agency last
night, and brought news of the arrival
CT the Indians at the mission. He in
formed General Miles that the Indians
were in a friendly mood and inclined to
come in peaceably. The chiefs would
be IN in the morning, and there was
possibility that terms might be made.
The general consented to receive them.
and Short Bull. Kicking Bear and Little
Wound will confer with him today.
Father Jute says the Indians do not
want to be disarmed. This is the note
OF the conference. If General Miles says
they will not be disarmed, it is probable
there may be peaceable settlement.
There is no confidence in their peaceful
pretensions. All day yesterday they
were shooting cattle along the whole
line of march. They burned their own
property of every kind, save their guns
and ponies, and these facts destroy all
confidence in their expression of no war.
The Indians themselves partially admit
that the chiefs cannot guarantee to con-
troll the warriors. Thay say they have
among them about three hundred young
bucks who want to fight, and a single
shot will start them. Besides this, the
Indians who murdered Lieutenant Casey
are known, and when they are taken
they will be hanged for murder. They
are among the belligerent young bucks,
and they may precipitate fight to pre-
vent dying by the rope. The Indians
are just as anxious to know what the
whites are going to do as the whites are
to know what the Indians will do.

AN EMERGENCY MEASURE.
Senator Stewart Holds In Reserve New
Silver PrODOSitiOn.


Silver Proposition.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 12.-During the de-
bate on the finance bill today, Senator
Stewart sent to the clerks desk, to have
printed, proposition respecting his free
coinage amendment, which he said
might be offered if anyone desired to do
80. This proposition, if adopted, would
take the place of his free coinage amend
ment down to certain point. 1t is the
same as that amendment in substance,
but has attached a proviso that all sill
yer bullion not the product of the
mines, mills or smelters OF the United
States, and all silver coin and bullion
the product OF countries other
than the United States, shall,
in the discretion of the secretary
of the treasury, be subject to a mint
charge to be fixed from time to time by
HIM, said charge not to exceed the diff
ference between the market value of
said silver bullion in London, at the
time of its deposit, and the coinage value
thereof. The secretary may make such
regulations as are necessary to determine
whether such bullion is the product OF
the United States.
This proposition will be held i'll re-
serve until some agreement is reached
respecting its final dispoaition. 1t was
drawn after consultation among several
senators upon the theory that it would
receive the support of some Republicans
in the senate and house who are favor
ably disposed toward an effort to enlarge
the use Of silver, but fear disaster as the
result of unrestricted coinage. Senator
Stewart, however, is not committed to
it in any way, having simply offered it
in order to get it in print for better ex-
animation

down.

northwest gale prevails, and bad night
is reported along the coast. The same
kind of reports come from the Maine
coast, and great damage has been done
at Eastport and Camden.

Buffalo BilIs Graphic Description Of
the Present Trouble.
New YoRK, Jan. 1.-THE Herald
under date OF Pine Ridge, prints 4 die
patch from Buffalo Bill in reply to re.
quest for his opinion Of the Indian situ.
alton. He says: "Indian history
furnishes no similar situation. You
might imagine 5000 Indians, an usual
proportion of warriors, better armed
than ever before, hemmed in. a Gordon
about sixteen miles in diameter, COM
posed OF over 5000 troops, acting like a
slowly closing dragnet. This mass OF
Indians is now influenced by leaders as
despairingly desperate and fanatical
as the late Big Foot's party. 1t
contains also restrained neutrals, fright
ened and disatfected Ogalallas, hampered
by the powerful Brules, backed by rene
gades and desperadoes from all the other
agencies. There are about 2500 believed
to be friendly Indians in and around the
agency. Such is the situation General
Miles and the military confront. Any
one OF this undisciplined mass is able to
precipitate terrible conflict from most
unexpected quarters. In fact it is war
with most willy and savage people.
Yet the whites are restrained by the
humane and peaceful desire to prevent
bloodshed and save the people from
themselves. Ordinarywarfare shows no
parallel. General Miles seems to hold a
firm grip on the situation. The Indians
know him, express confidence in his
honor, truth and Justice to them, and
they fear his power and valor as we'll.
AS the matter now stands, he
and they should be allowed, un-
trammeled even by suggestions,
to settle the question, as no one
not on the spot can appreciate the fear
fully delicate position. AT this mo-
ment, as lar as words 60, could say
there will be peace; but smouldering
spark is visible that may precipitate.a "a
terrible conflict at any time in the next
few days. However it ends, more and
prompt attention should be paid in the
future to the Sioux Indian, to his rights.
bis complaints and his necessities.
Respect and consideration should also
be shown for the gallant little army, for
It is the Indian and the soldier who pay
the most costly price in the end. 1
think 1T looks like peace, and if so the
greater is the victory"
AN EPISCOPAL BISHOPS VIEWS.
Sioux FALLS, 8. D., Jan. 12.-Last
evening at st. Augusta (Episcopal) ca
thedral, Bishop Hare gave a two hours
talk on the Indian situation. The bishop
had just returned from the scene of the
Wounded Knee struggle. He was satis-
fed that the soldiers simply did their
duty. The speaker thought the red men
had good cauee for complaint, and de-
nounced the present Indian agency sys-
tenn as the cause of the present out
break.

to the hatred shown toward his brother,
Albert Victor. Prince George has just

beard, superb complexion, and great,
