Associated Press Dispatches
LONDON, Oct. 2S.-Dispatches received
this evening from Japan announced
that the telegraph wires beyond Hiogo
and Osaka were down. 1t was added
that there had been an earthquake at
Hiogo,. and a rumor was current that a
great amount of property was destroyed,
and that the loss of life was consider
able.
Hiogo is seaport town OF Japan, on
the island of Hondo, and situated about
twenty-five miles by rail from Osaka.
Hiogo is fine harbor at the heads OF
the gulf of Osaka, and adjacent to Kobe.
It is lighted with gas, and has number
of fire public buildings. The seaport
referred to has an extensive foreign and
coastwise trade, and the population in
1854 was about 40,000 souls.
Osaka is also on the island of Hondo,
and on the sea, thirty-seven miles
southwest of Kisto, to which place, as
we'll as to Hiogo and Kabe, railways
have been built. Osaka has large for
eign trade, arsenals, a great castle,
machine shops, city hall, mint, college
and academy, and is traversed by canals
over which are more than 100 bridges,
some of iron. This city has many
theaters and other places OF amusem ment,
and 1900 places OF worship. In point of
size, it is the third or fourth city in
Japan. but in social affairs, fashion,
commerce and industry, it takes first
rank. Osaka has population, accord
ing to the census of 1884; of about
$4,000.
A private telegram dated Hiogo, re-
ceived tonight, says a severe shock of
earthquake was experienced at Osaka,
and the destruction of both life and
property was very great. So severe was
the shock that number of houses were
thrown to the ground and many of the
occupants were caught in the falling
buildings and crushed to death. A
large number of persons succeeded in
escaping from their homes, only to meet
death in the streets. These is no means
at present of estimating the total loss of
life, in fact details are very meagre. All
the telegraph wires were broken in the
districts affected, by falling poles. A
private dispatch, however, states that
it is known that in Osaka alone, the
death list contains the names of 800
residents of that city.

NEW YoRK, Oct. 2S.-About 200sports
from this city and Brooklyn who jour
neyed to the Road house last night near
Danbury, Conn, witnessed a kid glove
fight to a finish between Jack Bates, of
Ohio, and Joe DAILY, of New York. 1t
was after l O'Clock this morning when
the men entered the ring. Con Nc
Aulife, brother of the famous light
weight champion pugilist, was selected
as referee.
height was sortofa go-as-you-please
affair. and one time it looked as though
the whole 200 were going to take hand
in it. The men started off in good shape,
and for the first four rounds they fought
fairly well. DAILY received some severe
punishment, which induced him to COM
mence his foul fighting. Fouling COM
menced the latter part OF the fourth
round, and before the close of the fifth
round verybody was in the ring push
ing, showing and jostling one
another and believing foul" at
the top of their voices. The widest
kind of excitement prevailed while all
hands were endeavoring to separate the
fighters who had their teeth fixed in
each other like two bulldogs. Fully
five minutes was lost in trying to restore
peace.
In the sixth round, during one of the
clinches, DAILY managed to get his
thumb into Bates mouth, and man
aged to increase the size of it by run
ming it up into the left cheek. Bates
bled freely and the first blood was
claimed for and allowed DAILY.
The men had to be separated
frequently in this round, as they both
fouled all they knew how every time
they came together. At the call of time
DAILY evidently did not think the thing
evened up, as he followed Bates to his
corner and bit piece out of his shoul-
der. 1t was cold-blooded, but still it
was allowed, despite all protests. The
crowd went there to see fight to the
finish, and SO long as both men were
fouling the spectators wanted to see it
out, no matter if the fighters killed each
other.
The second round was rough and
tumble affair of the most approved
style, consisting of choking, biting,
kicking, gouging and all kinds of unfair
fighting. DAILY, who started all the
foul fighting, got decidedly the worst of
it at his own peculiar style of pugilism.
He finally ran out of the ring to escape
his punishment, but he was thrown
back into the ring again by his own
friends, and told to take his medicine.
He made several more attempts to turn
and make his escape, but each time he
was headed eff by the crowd and
pushed back into the ring.
The eighth and last round was of short
duration, as all the fight had been
knocked out of DAILY, and his only aim
seemed to be to get out of the ring and
as far away from the fists of Bates as
possible. Finally, in his mad effort to
escape, he smashed Con McAuliffe in
the face and dived out through the ropes
like an arrow, and there was nothing
else left for McAuliffe to do but give the
victory to Bates.

A VICTORY FOR sMYrHE.
The Famous Andover HeterOdoxy Ca
at Last Settled.

The Famous AndOver HeterOdoxy Case
at Last Settled.
BosToN, Oct. 28.-The decree of the
board of visitors has been set aside in
the famous Andover case. This is the
decision of the supreme court on the
grounds that the trustees were not made
parties to the original proceedings. The
decision means a victory for Professor
Egbert E. Smythe, who was expelled
from Phillips academy in Alabama, and
doubtless ends struggle that has been
before the public for over five years.
The decision covers only one of the
many grounds of appeal set out by Pro
fessor Smythe's lawyers, namely that
the board of visitors acted unjusLly and
illegally in refusing to allow the board
of trustees to have share in the trial.
Technically the effect of the decision is
to send the case back to the board of
visitors for new trial.
Chief Justice Field alone dissents in a
long opinion. He says it was inmate
rial whether or not the application of
the trustees to be permitted to appear
as party, be part OF the record.
The majority opinion does not say
whether Prof. Smythe is. or is not guilty
of heterodoxy. Neither does it prevent
the board of visitors from amending
their complaint and calling upon the
trustees to appear. The trustees as a
body are supporters of Prof. Smythe and
will not become parties to the proceed
ings for his removal, and the decision
thus becomes virtual victory for the
new departure" liberals.

Bishop Nicholson Consecrated.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2S. Impressive
ceremonies marked this mornings con-

STARTLING TESTIMONY.
Rev. Samuel Cotton's Inhuman Treat

Rev. Samuel Cotton's Inhuman Treat
ment of Orphan Children.
DUBLIN, Oct. 28. Startling testimony
was given today at the trial of Rev.
Samuel Cotton, rector of Carnagh,
County Kildare, charged with criminal
neglect and i'll treatment of children in
Carnagh orphanage. Cotton has con-
Quoted the affairs of the orphanage
many years and has received large sums
of money by subscription. The Chill
dren's society, during an investigation,
found the children in an emaciated,
filthy and ragged condition, and covered
with parasites. The toes of one, it was
testified to, had rotted off. Another,
girl, had been chained by the legs to a
log. The rooms of the orphanage
were found in the tilthiest pos
sible condition. In the kitchen
was found a baby, six weeks old,
covered with dirty rags and dying of
cold and inanition. Other children in
the same apartment were crouched
around small fire, almost frozen and
half starved. All were weak and sickly,
and their growth stunted by the treat
ment received under Cetton's manage
ment. The sanitary condition OF the
whole establishment was horrible.
Some of the beds used by the unfortu-
nate children were merely old boxes
and packing cases, filled with stale hay.
1t was also shown that all the children
were kept in perpetual state of terror
by Cotton, and it would be difficult to
imagine more deplorable or blamable
state of things. Cotton was committed
for trial.

Penn, special says: The residents oi
Fayette county were greatly stirred up
over the discovery of patients in the
Connellsville hospital lying there help

Gaddy, superintendent, says she cannot
help it, as the committee OF trustees

fixed for use since last spring.
Deputy Sheriff Crawford visited the
hospital on business yesterday, and
found a patient lying at the point of
death from pneumonia, contracted after
coming to the hospital, his physician
says, because there is no fire in the
building. The patients all tell the same
story. The only fire in the building is
in the kitchen, where the superintend-
ent has been compelled to move her
office, and there water is heated and
placed in gum heaters, which are put in
the beds of the patients, but are
totally inadequate.

Simon is quoted as declining to ven.

to expel England from Egypt. In this
connection Simon said he did not credit
