His Offer to Farrell.

Whether or not the Australian is all that his
friends say he is 1 don't know, but am GER
tainly of opinion that he is no invincible, There
is always difficulty of getting at the truth
about these Australian pugilists Anyone of
them will give his record out to-day, and 1t will
be entirely torn to pieces by some other
Australian tomorrow. This has been positively
the case with Hall and will be content to wait
and see how he performs before coming to any
definite opinion regarding him But as to his
desire to fight Farrell. 1t is great pity that
Hall or some of the other leading middleweights
>dion't accept Farrelps challenge sooner Farrell
tried in every way to secure q contest with any
middleweight and they all ignored him. His
hackers were SO anxious TO have him tested
that they matched him to stand before Joe
McAuliffe for ten rounds and no sooner was
this contest arranged than two or three of the
middleweights offered to fight Farrell This is
not by any means fair to Farrell. But as a
means of accommodating Hall, FarrelPs back
erS come to the front and offer to match Ed
Smith to face the Australian. This offer does
not seem to catch on. Farrell is the man that
is wanted. Well, taking everything into con-
siderarIon, IL had the management of Farrell
l would forfeit In the McAullffe contest and
get thoroughly ready for Hall. This plan
would certainly be the best in all respects. To
begin with. Farrell has not by any means suffi-
cient time TO get into frst-class condition to
meet McAuliffe. And suppose he meets his
big opponent when he. Farrell, is not In his
best form and suffers disastrous defeat, will

The N. +. Defeated.

HELENA, April 10.-In the United
States circuit court, an opinion was
handed down by Judge Knowles in the
case Of the Northern Pacific railroad VS..
{. W. Cannon ct al, involving title to
lands valued at over half a million with
IN the city limits of Helena. The COM
plant of the railroad is held insufficient
and relief is denied on the ground that
claiming to possess what could be only
the legal title to the land, they must al
so have had possession before they could
maintain action. The railroad claimed
the land as part of its land grant; Cannon,
by virtue of the United States patent
issued ten years ago. The decision vir-
tually determines the ease in Cannon's
favor.
