HOW 1T HAPPENED.
The Sheriff's UItimatum, and the
Clubs Capitulation.

The Sheriff's Ultimatum, and the
, Clubs CapituIation.
Early yesterday morning the protest
ing committee was astir and at the sher-
ifs Office to learn what course he had
decided to pursue, but they got little
information from that popular official.
Later on, the sheriff visited the govern
or and got his final instructions. "You
are enjoined to stop that fight" said
Gov. Merriam, land if you need force.
| will furnish you with thousand
men if necessary"
THAT settles it," said Sheriff Bean,
and he made tracks to his Office. Mean
while Gov. Merriam issued an order to
Adit. Gen. Mullen, and in accordance
Herewith the four st. Paul companies
of militia were ordered to report, fully
equipped for duty. at the armory at Z p.
m. Sheriff Bean had already notified
the officers of the Athletic club that the
fight could not occur, and when he re-
ceived the peremptory order of the gov
ernOr he took furthOr steps. With his
attorney, w. ii. Sanborn, he sought
County Attorney O'BrIen. and CONSUL
tatiOn was held. AS a result. it was de-
cided to request the presence of Frank
Shaw and the president and Sec
retary of the Athletic club at
conference. This occurred at the city
hall, and for an hour an executive
session was held. 1t was hot one, and
high language filtered out to the crowd
in waiting in the corridor. President
Cowles roasted the protesting crowd to
a rich brown hue, and included the
leaders,, some of whom were present.
When the doors were opened, the an
rladn that fhn nj N IN Qn
decided to call the fight off. Frank
Shaw said it was done to prevent rotous
proceedings, as the steps taken by the
citizens who were opposing the contest
would undoubtedly have led to blood
shed. I'VE are for peace; they are for
bloodshed," were his final words, land
we want the people to understand it."
President Hles said with great bit
terness and feelings:
ave have been the victims of the
most internal and unsurpassable perse
cution. The enemies of this contest
have strained every point Of the law at
a time when their strain is effectual,
but disastrous to us. They have taken
every possible step to harm US, and
rather than run the risk of causing
serious trouble we have given up the
contest. If we went on there would
undoubtedly be rioteus proceedings, for
which the other side would alone be to
blame. We will give FitZsimmons and
Hall s1,5O0 each and refund all money
paid for membership tickets upon pres
entatIon of the latter at the stand in the
Ryan hotel. To build the pavilion cost
us $1,000 at least. This, together with
the S3,0 900 we give to the contestants and
other incidental expenses, puts US in
the hole to the extent of about Sl2. 1000

DERBY TIPS.

After going across the street car tracks the
Minneapolis train stopped just before reach
ing the bend. when two touts, one of them
colored, who were apparently disappointed
at the prospect of no HGll-FitzsimmOns fight,
concluded to entertain the waiting masses
by having little slugging match themselves;
The black man knocked the white man of
the train. who fell on the rails on his probos-
els from which a fountain Of claret spouted,
but he came to time Immediately, knocked
the black man down, kicked him unmercl-
to his hearts content BY this time the
crowd had pretty generally jumped off the
train, and had they not started soon after
there would have been a general row.
The numerous OK parties were an inter
esting feature of the grand stand, and many
handsome costumes were worn by ladies' who
graced that portion of the grand stand.

BY MULLEN'S ORDER.
The Boys in Blue Turn Up in ForcS
at the ArmOrV

at the Armory.
Adjt. Gen. Mullen hastened to the
capitol early yesterday morning, and at
the word from the governor he ordered
out the companies of the First regiment
that are in the city. Companies c, d, E
and II were ordered to muster at the
armory at O'Clock, and there await
further orders.
Seven o'clock came, and so did the
boys of tie national guard. How pretty
they appeared in their suits of blue.
while the muSkets that seemed almost
too heavy tor some cleaned from their
shoulders. Sheriff Bean was there, too,
not as the captain of his company, but
as sheriff of the county of Ram
sey. The boys felt proud Of their
task that was fraught with dan
ger. The word of command was given.
They filed out of the armOTy. formed in
ranks and away they went. galiantly
marching up West Seventh street to the
scene of the conflict. a vast throng
had already gathered at the grounds,
which looked for all the world like
circus grounds.
The militia took possession of the
ground and the building and Gordon
of soldiers was placed about it at the
distance of sixty to seventy feet from
the amphitheater. All within these
lines were driven out without ceremony
and Col. Bend reigned supreme. The
colonel, by the way, had been placed in
charge of the four companies, and
right we'll he knew his duty. With
proud step and flashing eye he sur
veyed the scene. nor deigned he to adj
dress himself to anyone. He had a

for a moment show himself near the
outline OF the guard.
The crowd, which numbered thou
sands, was good natured indeed; too
good natured, perhaps, for the guard,
whom they jeered numerically.
''What are yon here for?" asked one.
1t was a pertinent question, for not
one, perhaps not even the commanding
officer himself, could tell why they were
there. But bark! What ominous words
were those? Why that pallor in the
faces of strong men and that trembling
of manly frames? Why do all shudder,
and for the moment seem to stop breath
ing?
of the guardsmen rings through the
Silly night.
The muskets are presented, and half
dozen militiamen hurry TO drive bold
intruder out Of the ranks. The people
stretch their necks to catch sight of the
offender, and behold, it is little bare
footed urchin, whose head would not
reach the cartridge belt Of one of the
soldiers. Yet is he put out of the ranks
and driven among the crowd.
When Col. Bend took charge Of the
place he forcibly elected the watchman,
who was in the building, and drove him
beyond the line of the guard. The
doors leading to the amphltheater were
shut and nailed fast from the outside.
Long boards were fastened across them
so as to prevent all access to the build
ing.
The men took up their station about
1880 o'clock, but how long they we're to
remain they could not say; it play be
all night. Sheriff Bean said that the
men would be kept there until he felt
assured that there was TO be no fight.

BEANS POSITION.
The Sheriff Explains His Inter-
view With Gov. Merriam.

view With Gov. Merriam.
1t was reported yesterday that Sheriff
Bean had asked the governor for aid to
assist him in putting a stop to the pro-
posed fight. The sheriff was seen by a
reporter and he made the follow
ing statement: "Shortly after II
O'Clock this morning my chief deputy,
Charles Dana, informed me that was
wanted in the county attorneys office.
| went there and found that the gov
ernor had telephoned for me to go up
to see him immediately. l hastened up
to the capitol and there had talk with
his eXcelleney.
"Mr. Sheriff." said he, "what have
you done to prevent the fght?'
replied that had done nothing, as
| had nothing to do. If warrants were
put into my hands would arrest the
parties. or l could arrest them after
they had begun to fight and so COM
mitted misdemeanOr.
"Mr. Sheriff, you must 90 out there
and stop that fight" the governor said.
81 told the governor that if the fight
once got under way, it would require at
least thousand men to stop it. i will
furnish the men, said the executive, i
will order out the militia"
81 had not asked for this, for did
not think it necessary. / had received

orders to arrest the men, and would
have done so. My reputation is worth
all to me. and had | gone into the ring
to arrest one of the men, would have
taken him, | assure you. The man
who interfered would be bored through
as surely as | now talk to YOU" III
However, before this conversation
had taken place the Athletic club had
decided not to have the fight, so thas
the calling out it was thought necessary
to send out the state soldiery to show
that certain officials in this state were
determined to hold up the high moral
character both of themselves and of the
community.
Bright and early Tuesday morning
the governor sent abroad his famous
declaration calling upon the sheriff of
Ramsey county to take of the national
guard was hardly necessary.

of Col. Tom Cochran and his coadjutors
victory sits plumed, and the sporting
fraternity send out walls of despair
from the cave of gloom.
At II o'clock yesterday morning it was
confidently given out that despite all
that had taken place-the bonds. the
proclamation and the mass meeting
the fight would come off as proposed.
Two hours later group of Athletic
club officials descended from the court
house, and in ten minutes word had
gone to the uttermost parts of the city
that the fight was hopelessly and def
initely called off, and that tickets would
be cashed at the Ryan at 10 O'Clock this
morning. Later in the day and along
in the evening came revival of the
story that the fight would still come
off, but it was without foundation, and
one day passed into another, leaving
the vast amphitheater on Jefferson
street in charge of Sheriff Bean and his
cohorts of boys in state blue. Breath
ing maledictions OH the town and its
authorities, and encompassed generally
in cloud of sulphurouS smoke. most of
the visiting gentlemen of sporting pro-
clvitieS took the evening train for
home, leaving the rest to haunt the
hotels and cuss and discuss the situa-
tiOn.
