POLITICS DID 1T.
The McCarthy-Dixon Fight Brok-
en- Up.

en- Up.
Lone ISLAND CITY. Feb. 5.-The
glove fight between Cal Mccarthy and
George Dixon, the colored boxer of Bos-
ton. did not take place at the Puritan
Athletic club tonight, as warrants for
the principals, who were charged with
all Intention TO engage in prize fight,
were sworn out by members OF the JEFF
ferson club, all organization opposed to
Mayor GieaSOn'S administration. The
mayor has been in favor of allowing
glove contests in the city and his OPP
ponents fought him in this instance as
they did when Godfrey and Smith were
TO have boxed a few weeks ago.
When the managers of the Puri-
tan club learned this evening that
the warrants had been issued they ar
ranged to have bail on hand, but could
induce no judge to hold court and bail
the prize fighters, SO rather than have
Mccarthy and Dixon arrested and
locked up over night they sent the
boxers back to New York, and notified
the 5000 people who had been allowed
to enter the club house at 8 D. M that
the affair was postponed Oh account of
illegal dit1iculties,' and that the money
paid for the tickets would be refunded
i'll case it was decided to call the match
OFT altogether. The crowd took the
p0stponement good -naturedIy, although
they knew that the men had weighed i'll
during the afternoon, and were fully
prepared to do battle. There were peo-
pie from several other cities among the
eXpectant thrOng that waited in the cold
outside the club house for over an hour
before being allowed TO enter, and many
were heard to say that they would re-
main in New York until the match was
decided. but it IS likely that these men
Will have long wait If they adhere to
that determination. The Puritan club
managers are disguised with the way
things have gone, and viii probably
abandon all atten pts to build up an or
ganiZation such ao they planned in this
vicinity. Secretary Hackett said that
each Of the boxers would probably re-
ceive sum sufficient to cover his train
ing expenses and include a substantial
bonus for his trouble, and that after
having paid that money over Messrs.
Roche and Wakely would give up the
management of the club.

Almost everybody IS apt
to be a little cranky on some
points. If itisn't on one thing
it is pretty sure to be on an
other. Itisn't at all a bad idea
to be a trifle particular, espe-
cially in your selection of
clothes. Why shouldn't you
be? You have to pay for
them, and you have to wear
them, and if you don't choose
them with care they will be
a source of annoyance in
stead of a source of satisfac-
ton. You won't have any
trouble if you don't make a
mistake at the beginning. Go
to the proper place to buy
and the rest will be easy. Go

QUITE A MIDDLE.
Chairman Midgeley's Position on
Western Roads.

CHICAGO, Feb. 5.-The regular meet
ing of the Western Freight association
will be held next Tuesday. 1t is under
stood that no action will be taken to-
ward resolving the association into a
division of the Western Traffic associa-
ton. Chairman Midgeley takes the
position that such thing cannot be
done until all the roads in the Western
Freight association have become MEM
bers of the new organization. If Mr..
Midgeley's views are correct, the indi-
cations are that the merging of one into
the other will be indefinitely postponed.
There has apparently been no change
in the attitude of the Chicago 81 Alton
and the Chicago, st. Paul Sc Kansas
City roads, both of which are members
of the Western Freight association.
Chairman Walker says the next meet
ing of the commissioners will be held
in February.
