CoNEY ISLAND, Sept. 26.-About 7 900
people assembled here tonight to wit
ness two fights. The Ffteen-round go
between Sam Kelly, of New York, and
Bob Cunningham. of Brooklyn, was a
veritable sluggiDg match, in which
Kelly had decidedly the worst of it.
Then came Jimmy Lynch, of New
York, and Johnny Griffin, of Braintree
Mass, fighting for the 122 pound champ
ionship and purse of $25OO. Lynch
took the aggressive from the first, but
after the first round, in which he scored
first blood, secured little advantage.
Beginning with the second round, Griffin
fought like a tiger, knocking Lynch
down repeatedly, drawing blood and
finally knocking him out in the fifth
round. Lynch made game fight, but
could not hold up.

THE RESULT.
Mr.. Leyda sent so to Balm, and in re-
sponse received letter that the lady
had started for Phoenix. But she never
arrived. This was where the cunning
Cupid got off. He had the So, and the
victim had the memory of pleasing
dream of wealth and voluptuousness.
The assistant postmaster of Fresno
testified to the amount of mail received
by Balm during the three months he
had full swing. 1t was something
astonishing. Letters and registered
mail from all parts of the United States
poured in on him. His receipts ran up
into hundreds OF dollars before he came
to grief. The money received, no fur
ther attention was paid to the willing
votaries of smirched hymeneal chains,
although he did make one attempt to
procure girl in San Francisco to per-
senate the, character of the voluptuous
and mythical spanish maiden.
The examination resulted in the de-
fendant being held for trial, and he
went to Jail.
The great difficulty in all these cases,
as in the bunco cases, is to find wit
nesees who will go on the etand and
disclose their own foolishness and
weaknesses. In this case the testimony
is very strong, and District Attorney
Allen will push it with vigor and
ability.
