SAN Francisco, May 27.-About 500
people witnessed the fight between tho
middle-weights, Charles Turner and
Alex Greggains, for a purse of 81 900, at
the Occidental Club this evening. The
men appeared in the ring shortly before
9 o'clock, and both seemed in ex-
cellent condition. Greggains' superiority
in hight and reach was very noticeable.
Ed Holman was referee.
In the first round Turner assumed the
aggressive, and landed half dozen light
blows on the body and face, but Greggains
responded with several hard raps on
Turner's ear, and the round closed with
cheers for the white man.
Both were cautious in the second round.
A few blows were exchanged. generally
in Greggains' favor. Greggains bled at
the ear.
The third round was hard one for
Turner. He began by forcing. but ac-
complished nothing beyond following
Greggains around the ring. When two
minutes had expired, Greggains took a
hand and pounded Turner on the head
and body, finally sending him down in q
heap by hard highlander in the ear.
Turner arose slowly, and Greggains went
after him again, sending him down sec
ond time. Turner again arose, this time
| in nine seconds. He was staggering
around the ring, and another punch from
Greggains sent him down "a third time. 1t
| looked as il Turner was gone for good,
| but the call of time saved him.
When the fourth round opened it was
plain to every one that the fight was
Greggains' He was perfectly strong,
and the black man was so weak he had to
be assisted to his feet by his seconds.
Greggains went at him like cyclone,
and fought him to his corner, and while
Turner leaned helplessly against the rope
Greggains rained right and left upon
his head, Turner being unable to hold
bis hands up to protect himself Turner
fell to the lower rope. and Greggains con-
tinued to pound him, when Captain
Douglas, of the police force stepped into
the ring and ordered him to stop. Tur-
ner sank into his chair, and the referee
awarded the fight to Greggains, amid
wild cheering among the spectators.

Does Not License Liquor sclling

CHICAGO, May 27.-Following tho decis-
ion of the Supreme Court in the "orig-
inal package" case. an interesting circu-
lar comes TO the Collector of this customs
district from Commissioner of Internal
Revenue Mason. The Commissioner
states that he has received many letters
stating that in many parts of the country
retail LIQUOR dealers claim to hold Gov
ernment license to sell liquor, and defy
the local or State prohibitory laws. The
Commissioner says the belief is evidently
current that the United States licenses
liquor-selling, and adds: Once for all,
this Office wishes it understood the Gov
ernment does not license liquor-selling of
whatever description. and only puts a
yearly tax on liquor-sellers. and does not
seek to interfere in prohibition districts"

LONDON, May 27.--The great event on
the English turf was run to-day at Ep-

second day of the EPSON meeting and
the race for the Derby stakes was the
event of the day. AS usual the course
was crowded with all classes and condi-
tons of people, and the road from Lon
don to EPSON Downs was filed with We
.hicles of every description. There were
the usual conditions, and the distance
was about one mile and half. The vic
tor was Sir Johnstone's colt Common; M.
Z. Blanco's colt Gouverneur second, and
Sir James Dukes colt Martenburg third.
There were eleven starters.
Just before the race heavy shower set
in and the race was run in drenching
rain. After the horses were at the post
the first attempt to get them away re-
suited in false start. AT the next at
tempt they got away splendidly. Deem

Gov. Pattison Appoints One and Phila-
delphia's City Council Another.
PHILADELPHIA, May 27.-Both branches
of the City Council to-day accepted the
resignation of City Treasurer Bardsley.
Six Democrats in the select branch en-
tered a formal protest against allowing a
man charged with such serious crime to
resign. Richard G.. Oellers, business
manager Of the Record, was elected to fill
the unexpired term of Bardsley. The
Democrats refused to take any part in
this election. While the meeting was in
progress the Democrats Endorsed W. Red
wood Wright, Governor Pattison's ap-
pointee.
Bardsley's resignation will take effect
on Saturday next, and then Philadelphia
will have two City Treasurers, one
named by the City Council and County
Commissioners and one by the Governor.
The question of who is who will prob
ably be brought before the courts at
once.
The investigation to-day developed the
fact that Bardsley had considerable deal
ing with other brokers beside Glenden-
ing Il Co., and differences that he specu-
lated through these firms. The report
that Bardsley had hypothetical securities
of the sinking fund is denied by Mayor
Stuart.
District Attorney Graham to-day took
out another warrant for Bardsley's arrest
charging him with perjury in violating
his oath of office, in using public money
for his own gain.

WASHINGTON, May 27.-The Navy De-
partment to-day received tho first news
from the Charleston since she lett Aca-
pulco, the first of last week, in continued
pursuit of the Itata. Whom the vessel
failed to touch at Panama within tho time
expected, the department said it was very
probable it had been decided to keep
straight on down the coast and that the
Charleston would be heard from at some
Peruvian port. This prediction is full
hlied, for the port at which the Charles
ton announced her arrival is Callao.
The whereabouts of the Itata is as far
from being known as before, for Captain
Remey reported that ne had seen nothing
OF the Itata on the cruise down the coast.
The Charleston will join the squadron
under Admiral McCann' in the Chilean
waters, and it is surmised that report

sist of gold and silver on a parity with

Expressions from many of the dele
gates show that the farmers will make
their strong fight against Mckinley for
Governor. taking him as the representa-
tive OF what they call pernicious tariff
system, and against the return of John
Sherman to the United States Senate.
5. A. Ellis, State Master of the Grange,
who is also President of the Farmers
Union, said: 81 do not think there is
any show for Sherman's election to the

OF the farmers at this convention As for
myself, / will vote for no candidate for

self to oppose Sherman's return to the
Senate. Even should no third party be
decided upon by the farmers, they will
be sufficiently strong in the next Ohio
Legislature to hinder the election of any
Senator SO antagonistic to their interests
as John Sherman
That the movers of the third party in

his canvass for the Goyernorship of Ohio
there is no doubt. While it is thing yet
to be accomplished, it is regarded as a

hesitate to predict that Mckinley will be
beaten by 10000 majority.
Hon. Jerry Simpson, who is a pro-
nounced free-trader, has been assigned to
campaign work in Ohio, and a pro-
gramme has been laid out for him. There
is no other campaign to particularly de-
mand his attention, and he will devote
considerable time to educating the farmers
of the Buckeye State. He viii probably
go into the State the first of June, and
will make another stumping tour when
the campaign grows hotter, near the time

Vance was stopped by spectators, and the
injured man placed under the care of
physicians. On examination it was
found that two of Armstrong; ribs We're
broken, and splinters from the bones had
penetrated the lungs, causing the man to

REVENUE CUTTER RUSH.
Under Instructions From Washington
She Sails North.


WASHINGTON, May 27.-The Secretary
of the Treasury this morning telegraphed
the commander of the Rush to sail to-
day.
Orders for the revenue cutter Bear to
sail for Alaska were also sent by tele-
graph this afternoon. While it is impos-
sible to obtain positive information as to
the character of the instructions to the
revenue officers it is generally under
stood they do not differ III any essential
particular from those of last year.
The Corwin, however, will not sail for
some days yet, and in the meantime the
Government will consider the advisable
lty OF giving the Corwin special instruc-
tons modifying those under which the
Rush and Bear sail, the instructions of
the two last-named vessels being the
same as those of last year. They are not

not, it is said, yet been settled, no re-
ply having been received by the United

eminent to allow the natives to kill $500

food supplies.

are yet waiting on Lord Salisbury for
some expression of opinion about the
matter. Pending this reply, or some
alternative, suggestion or offer from the
British Government, it is not believed
the matter will be finally settled. If
close season should be agreed upon. the
Treasury Department can send the rev.
enue cutter Corwin to the seal islands
with such supplementary orders as may
be needed to fit the new status Of affairs
1t is thought probable, however, by
those well informed, that should close
not be possible for the British Govern
ment to compel the great horde of poach-
ing vessels now on their way and in
Behring Sea, to desist from taking seals.
