DISAPPOINTED BY GROVER.
He Declines an Invitation to Visit
His BIRTHPLACE.

NEWARK. n. j., Dec. 2s.-F0r some
time past the citizens of Caldwell nave
been anxiously looking forward to the
expected visit of PreSident-elect Cleve-
land to Caldwell. that village bsing his
birthplace. 1t was expected that Mr..
Cleveland would be able to make the
visit before his Inauguration in March.
The citizens of Caldwell are somewhat
disappointed at the following letter
which the DreSideEt-elect wrote to G..
Nj. Harrison, of Caldwell:
Your very kind letter eff the goth has
just come to hand. | assure you that
few invitations are more alluring than
that which you extend. The privilege
of spending few hours in the town of
my birth, and where so many assscia-
tions in connection with the life-and
work OF my father always cluster, is GER
tainly one which l should much enjoy,
and were it not for the extreme pressure
upon my time and attention. which a
proper anticipation of the duties of the
presidency enforceS, should make an
effort to be with you. AS it is. however,
| shall have to ask you to allow me to
decline your invitation for the present.
Some time hope to visit Caldwell and
meet the good people of whom you
speak, and look over the scenes, which
will recall so much that is of interest.

TWO KNOCK-OUTS.
Good Sport at New York Boxing

IOOtA StD a WV VI N
Show.
NEW YORK, Dec. 24.-There was a lot
of fighting at the regular monthly box
ing show OF the Manhattan Athletic
club tonight. There were two clever
knock-Outs, and two men, both winners,
broke a bone in their winning dukes.
All the goes were OF six
rounds. Jack McAuliffe, champion
lightweight, was the referee in ALL.
The first bout was between Jimmy
Hogan, of Philadelphia, and Tom
Lynch, the brother Of Jimmy Lynch.

knocked Lynch down in each OF the
four rounds, and in the fifth put his
man out with left handler on the jaw.
The second purse was split between a
couple of 1G5-pound men, Aaron ISaacs,
of this city, and Charles HankinsOn, of
Brooklyn. In this instance Referee
McAuliffe's opinion was commented
upon. Most of the spectators thought
Isaacs should have got the decision.
A furious fight took place between
Billy Vernon, The Haverstraw Brick
maker" and Hite Peckham, of Brad
ford. Pa. Peckham undertook to force
the work from the moment he put up
his hands, but Vernon fioCred Peckham

with right-hand smash on the jaw that

The last fight was between 154-p0und
men. Charlie Farrell, of Boston, and Ali

EVERYTHING PEACEFUL,

ter of War

CITY OF MEXICO, Dec. 24.-El Uni
versal will tomorrow publish an editor
ial accusing the United States govern
ment of negligence and want of Wig
ilance in allowing bandits to cross the
frontier, and asking if more troops are
not necessary on the American side of
the frontier
The minister of war today declared
that Mexico had already more than
enough troops on the frontier. He
added that, Notwithstanding the reports
to the contrary published in the United
States and Europe, there is no revolu-
tiOnary movement in Mexico, nor Is
there any armed force in the country,
save that controlled by the govern
ment. The minister declared that these
reports have their origin in the fact that
a small armed band recently crossed
into Mexico from Texas, and surprised
the Mexico pickets at San Ignacio. After
a slight skirmish the marauders retired
whence they came. The Indians in the
state of chihuahua are pacific, and no
trouble whatever is apprehended from
them.
