robustness Of her condition and Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Clagett and Mr.. Harvey Owens
of the attorneys Office went to her house this
afternoon and took her ante-mortem state
ment.
The supposed dying woman was very weak,
but she could not be made to believe that she
would surely die.
''If die" she would say, II know it will be
from the beating"
Mr.. Clagett heard her story, which was that
on the night Of the affair William Chew, one Of
the prisoners, and Henrietta Smith were quar-
reling and she ordered them out. They used
bad language, she said, and she attempted to
push Chew out.
Chew said: 1t, I'll 90 out" and began
talking to Henrietta again.
When she again tried to put him out he
choked her and pushed her against a coal-oil
barrel. She got up and went toward him. when
her son Jim appeared and attempted to put
him out.
William Bryant, she continued. then came
In and threatened to rip Jim's heart out if he
put his hand on Chew. Both Bryant and Chew
got on Jim and she started for Chew.

ant let go Jim and said to me, If you don't let
that boy alone I'll kick your - out He
kicked at me and ran, but followed and he
kicked me in the stomach"
Her son Jim was present whom she NEE the
statement and he objected to her making it,
but she said that talking about death did not
brighten her.
The prisoners claim that they were playing
cards with Jim Goodloe and that the trouble
was the result Of dispute about q game

willard Hall.
very ordinary exhibition Of tame boxing
was given last evening at willard Hall and up
wards Of . hundred men paid dollar apiece
to zee number Of set-tos with big soft gloves.
There was no hard hitting and precious little
science.
First Walter Campbell and Mike Lynch, both
OF Philadelphia, boxed three tame rounds.
Campbell, who has for some time been instruc-
tor to the Schuylkill Navy Athletic Club OF
Philadelphia. was easily the better Of the two.
Lynch and Dixon had . friendly three-round
bout and were followed by two school boys
named Bateman and Carroll, who boxed four
rounds. In the last round Carroll rallied
gamely, but he was overmatched in every way
by the larger boy.
After Burke and Hagan had boxed . couple
of rounds Campbell and Nally were intro
duced. The men boxed cleverly, both being
fairly scientific fighters. but neither one was
punished enough to know it
