COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 19.-The follow

this evening:
Kansas City, Mo-, Feb. 17.-Allen w.
Thurman, Columbus, o.: 1t was to
be expected that the decision in
the Bierbauer and Stovey cases
would not evoke rounds of
applause from the members of
the American association, even without
your request at the opening Of our III
gust session that no remarks of approval
or disapproval be INDUCED in. But
none of us had an idea there would be
such avid burst of indignant rage, &C
companled by so many threats OF seceS-
sion and the like. OF course, many of
these things will reach your ears, and l
want to be on hand early to assure
in making the bold and cour-
ageouS stand which / am sure will be
yours against the attacks of others who
do not appreciate that your position is
one calling for an impartial and con-
scientiOus discharge of duty. We look
to you to protect the national agreement
and the right of the members of the ma
tional board to form and express opin-
ions without being inundated there
by. l admit at once that your con-
clusi0n is the earnest desire to do
justice and with a reluctance so ex-
IRENE that it required a great effort On
your part to reach at all. Whatever
NAV be said of the effect of the national
agreement upon the transactions oc-
curing before Feb. l, there is no doubt
that it is broad enough to reach offend
ers against the letter and spirit of its
provisions since that day. There is
still less doubt that the board
will not hesitate to exercise its
powers against persons whose rebellious
conduct is founded upon less provoca-
ton. have not hesitated to express
myself SO frankly and positively to you
because 1 am DESTROYS of convincing
you of my earnest support and sympa-
thies in whatever steps may be taken,
directed against you personally and
against the independence of every men,
Der of the board. Yours.

RIOT AMONG sYRIANs.
Despite Encounter Between Rival
Factions.

Factions.
CHICAGO, Feb. ia feud between
two rival factions of Syrians, living in
tumble-down part of Pacific avenue,
eliminated tonight in a desperate riot
in which revolvers, knives and
hatchets figured. and number of per-
sons were wounded. Women and chill
dren took a lively hand in the scrim-
mage. Three girls. Ameen Bohamra,
Fassos Sabac and Shafeeca NasSvalla,
aged about eighteen, were among the
first to fall gashed by keen blades.
The other belligerents surged to and
fro over the PROSTATE bodies of the
wounded girls until police came
daShing up from different direc-
tons. The Arabs Infatuated by
the conflict, turned unanimously upon
the officers, but were speedily subdued,
and dozen of those who were in the
thickest of the fight were arrested. Be-
sides the three girls, four men under
arrest have CHASTITY stabs. and several
cOmbatantS who received cuts
and broken heads are known
to have escaped the officers.
Notwithstanding the ferocity Of the con-
flict it is believed that no fatalities will
result, though the wounded partici-
pants, male and female. will nearly all
be more or less diSfigured for life. The
riot started in street row between
opposing leaders, and the factions pour

The Chicago boy shows no sign of his

his vest pocket. There was about $4,000
in all, representing $500 stake money

some 81, 200 that came to him in the way

in waiting for him at the train. In con-
versation. he said that he felt none the
worse for his Seventy-siX rounds, and
could have kept on forever as things
went up to the seyenty-fourth round.
He considers 'Needham good fighter,

New YORK, Feb. 19.-The cortege did
not get fairly started under way until
2:30 o'clock. As the caisson bearing the

AS the procession moved slowly along

along the whole route the mournful
sound of the bells continued as it wend-

rink made the games possible, for dur
ing the entire afternoon clouds of snow
swept with blizZard-like fury up the
river. leaving the condition of the ice
thereon in no condition for bonspieling.
The ice in the rink, however,
was in excellent shape, and some
very close and exciting games were
played. The gentlemen representing
the Highlands were J. c. Myron, W. F.
Myron. d. Mcmillan and William
Rodger, skip. The Lowlanders' rink
was made up of Messrs. A. McCulloch,

however, proved too strong for the Wis

curriers' drew away from them steadily
and surely, beating them at 11:20 by
score of % to 10. The result
was announced with yell
from a score of Highland
throats that threw the Wanted effort
