PHILADELPHIA, June 20-The city au-
thoritieS have received their first official
notification that the state Of Pennsylvania
intends to hold the municipality responsi-
bic for the state funds which have disap-
peared under John Bardsleyis manipula-
tion. Mayor Stuart, City Treasurer
Oellers and City Comptroller Thompson
have received formal letter from Attorney
General Hensel making demand upon
the city for money due the state, and noti-
flying them that if not paid suit would be
entered within ten days.
Mayor Stuart at once acknowledged the
receipt of the communication in a letter
to the attorney general, in which he stated
that he should at once refer the matter to
the city solicitor for such action as may be
necessary.
Many people are OF the opinion that the
states case against the city is weak one,
while the officials in the various depart
ments contend that the state must look to
Mr.. Bardsley for the return Of its money,
and it is more than probable that tedious
litigation will follow the demand and the
case will eventually reach the highest
courts, as every one met with Is Of the
opinion that Mr. Bardsley was a servant
OF the state and that his populations are
its loss alone.

Russia sides with UnoIe Sam.

LONDON, June 20.-Advices from st.
Petersburg state that the Russian govern
ment is prepared to join in enforcing
close season for Behring sea on the terms
agreed upon between the United States
and England The Russian government
is favorable to the American side of the
controversy, and has given the United
States such aid as was possible against
depredations without compromising Rus
sia, and orders to this effect were long ago
promulgated to the czar's officers in that
section Of the empire. No doubt Is felt
that Germany will also come into the ar
ranaement and refuse the use OF her flag
for seal poaching. As to France, nothing
has yet been intimated, but it Is not be-
lieved that the republic will antagonize
an arrangement eminently satisfactory to
Russia. With these powers in line with
America and England, the British govern
ment is satisfied that the seals can be pro

JOHN |. AND Mr.. SLAvIN.
Contradictory Reports as to the
Alleged Challenge.
ONE OF THE GENTLEMEN IS DRUNK

mir. Sullivan, Unfortunately, Is Tempo
rarily Unabbo.to Speak for HIMSELF SO
MIR. Jack Barnett Speaks for Him.
There May BE Match and Maybe Not.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 20-John T. Sulli-
van was too drunk during the day to talk
sensibly concerning his proposed fight with
Slavin. His show was at San Jose Thurs
day night and after the performance he
filled up on "tanglefoot." lie had no sleep
and he was very drunk. He stood at the
bar Of the hotel IN San Jose which he pat
ronized IN the morning, declaring to q
crowd that be was willing to tight any man
on earth for any money that might be men-
toned on his return from Australia.
One Of His Little PIeasantries-
His friends bundled him into a hack and
rushed him to the railway station. While
he was at the hotel a stranger came into
the barroom and Sullivan ordered him to
drink. The man didn't know the big fell
low and replied 30, X. Therespon Sulli-
van stretched him out cold with a back
handed slap across the jaw. At the rail-
way station Sullivan held another recep-
tion of his admirers and repeatedly de-
clared that he could whip any man that
ever drew breath. When the train came
along he was packed aboard as quickly AS
possible.
Jack Barnett, Sullivan's manager and
erstwhile trainer said that there is moth
ing IN the story that Sullivan has chal-
lenged Slavin
Mr.. Barnett's Utterances.
Sullivan says Barnett in an inter-
view, always consults me before making
match, and it has always been Johns
custom 20 refer all people looking for
match to me. When DIR. Dougherty and
Slavin called upon Sullivan aud me in st.
Louis Sullivan told Slavin that whatever
| said he would agree to. | accordingly
told Slavin that John was under an
eighteen months contract with me, but
that II at the end Of that time he gSlavin)l
was still in the ring aud an undefeated
man, Sullivan would give him match.
| Slavin said he was satisfied and we parted
good friends This is the understanding
between Sullivan and Slavin, and all these
/ stories in the papers amount to nothing
| All OF which may be true or 1t may not.
The Nation waits to Hear.
| II is to be observed that Barnett says fur
| ther; you can, however, say that Sui
/ livan will make reply to these challenges
from the stage at Corbett's benefit next
| Wednesday night.
From all that can be learned from var
ious sources there Is not much doubt that
John l.. Sullivan has authorized Jim
Wakely and Charlie Johnston to make u
match for him and Slavin. Whether the
thing was done verbally when Jim Wakely
was here few weeks ago or by letter or
telegram since then is not known, but
that Sullivan is ready and anxious to meet
the Australian as soon as he is permitted
by his present management to do 50 Is
pretty certain.

club, OF this city, has telegraphed an offer
Of s25,O 900 for a fight in the Olympic club
