WHY 1T WAS WITHDRAWN.
The Coney Island People Disgusted With
McAullffe's Lying.

New ORLEANS, LA, December 2S.-A
prominent member of the Crescent City
Athletic Cluo, the only competitor Of the
Coney Island for the Burge-McAuliffe
fight said to-day:
''In the first place, the Crescent Athletic
Club never offered $4,000 for the fight.
Captain Williams, our representative, was
authorized TO ofer $40, 600, which he did.
He made this proposition to McAulife,
who went to the Couey Island officials and
told them our offer was $1,000 This in
duced the big bid Of the Coney Island.
They found out the trick and, OF course,
were disguised The self importance dis
played by McAuliffe disgusted them still
further, and the proposition was with
drawn never to be made again"
President Noel, Of the Crescent Club, re-
ceived a telegram this morning from n.
Cook, OF Boston, one Of Burgess managers,
saying that Burge would meet McAulitfe
before the New Orleans CLUB, now that the
Co1ev Island match is of.
Mr Cook said the Crescent would make
no further offer for the Burge and McAu-
life fight right away, but he could not say
what thev would do in the future.
He said that should the club see chance
to make q match between the men on a
business basis they might enter into nego-
tlatiOnS.

as to what has happened tho long over
Cunaroer UmDriR is all that can bo ia

That she has met with an accident IN
agreed In shipping circles, but Just the nn-
ture, extent and seriousness OF that mishap
will not be known until she is spoken by
some ship which will bring tho news n

the other side OF the Atlantic.
Al midnight tonight tho Umbrla was

There are a number OF steamships over
due from two 10 five days at this port, all
OF which travel over the route taken by
the Umbria.
Every oaeof the ocean liners arriving In
port to-day brought further udings con-
corning the furious hurricanes which have
swept over the Atlantic during tho past
few days
A representative Of the line made tho.
following statement to-day:
I'VE have every reason 70 believe thai
the Umbria is safe, although she Is over
due. She is one OF the staNnchest steam
ships on the Atlantic, and built 10 resist
the heaviest gales and the toughest seas.
Among the possibilities OF the cause OF
her delay the most likely is that she has
suffered some damage 10 her shaft, or that
her machinery has become disabled and
forced her 10 proceed under sail alone. or
that she Is assisting some other steamship
10 reach port. We are not even anxious or
worried over her delay"

O'Clock After breakfast at the Hoffman
Speaker Crisp left the hotel alone few
minutes after 10 o'clock.
Mr. Cleveland was seen soon after IL
o'clock and asked about the expected con-
ference which was to be held with Speaker
Crisp.
The President smiled in a weary sort OF
manner as he replied; Il know nothing OF
any conference to take place between Mr..
Crisp aud myself beyond what have read
in the newspapers. They seem 10 know
ali about it. The Speaker has not told ne
that he was coming 10 New York or IL nc
Has come"
Mr.. Cleveland declined to say whether
he expected a call from Mr.. Crisp to-day,
but left it 10 be inferred that he did not.
Neither would be say what subjects would
come up for discussion in case he and the
Speaker did meet.
Mr.. Crisp, when seen at the Hoffman
House tonight, said wnen asked he had
seen Mr.. Cleveland: "Oh, yes, L was with
him today from - tO2 O'Clock"
And the Speakership!'
'Weil, now, / can't tell you anything

"Haye you seen Z. ELerY Anderson,
Mr.. CrisD!'
'Yes, l have seen him-or he saw me
rather-he called on me"
"WeIl, how DO feel about that matter
Mr.. CrispF'
The speaker waved away the subject
with his hand: IL had rather not say
word about it. 1t has already had too
much said abOutit."

WASHINGTON, December 2s.-There was
a haSty re-arrangement Of Cabinet slates
here to-day on a report that Senator Oar

seat In the Senate To 20 into Cleveland's
cabinet as Secretary OF the Treasury.
The report looked as If IL came from good
authority but IL can oe stated tonight that
il does not reflect CarliSles real attitude.
Ii is known that the Senator IN talking
with a friend to-day spoke OF his going In
TO the Cabinet as probability aud gav9
no intimation that his oubiousness about
the move was stronger than IL has been 40

The AMERICAN UNKNOWN
But the Count Is Dead Just the Same,

Little Pistol


aud the American Oid 1t With his
Little Pistol
LONDON. December 2S.-COncerning the
duel at Monte Carlo between an American
and a Russian known as the Count Peter
HOmanOtf a dispatch to-day says that the
American engaged ia the duel was named
jay Brockton, aud be was not from Brook
lyn as before stated, the suggestion that he
was from Brooklyn having undoubtedly
been caused by q mistake as 10 his name.
The American and ROmanon quarreled
at the gambling tables as above stated,
RomaEoif being the aggressOr The Amer
icau sharply resented an insulting remark
on the part Of the Count, and an lmmedi-
ate challenge was the result.
The two men fought IN the grounds of q
private villa and evidently meant duel 10
the death. The conditions were twenty
five PAGES with liberty TO advance within
two PAGES of each other and 10 keep on
firing until one or the other should fall.
The second bullet from BrocktOn's pistol
struck Romanof just above the heart The
Count reeled and fell ana in q few moments
expired. Considerable mystery exists as
10 the identify OF Count Peter HOmauOG.
A Kew York newspaper suggests that
Count Peter ROmanoh may, or may not be
the travelling incoEnite OF the Grand
Dixie Peter NicolaOvitch, who is the sec
ond son of the late Grand Duke Nicoiai-
NicolaOvitch. who was the Cars uncle
The Grand Duke Peter was born at St.
Petersburg in 1864, is aide de camp 70 the
Emperor. Captain OF the Lanccrs ReSi-
ment of tho Imperial Guard. and married
in 1889 at Ieterhof, the Princess Militia,
the oldest daughter Of the Prince OF Mon
tenegrO.
Further particulars OF the duel were re
ceived this evening The quarrel out Of
which the duel grew, appears 10 have been
due to q misunderstanding on the part OF
the Count.
II seems that BrCck'on had been winning
heavily at the gaming tables and had tossed
q "pourboire" 10 the croupier, which the
Count supposed was intended for him.
The Count accused Br0ckton OF insult
ing him by throwing the coin. BrOcktoE
denied the charge, and tried 10 explain that
the coin was for the crOupier. The Count
repeatiug that BrocktoE had iusulted him.
Brocktou gave him the ne direct and a cha.-
lenge followed.
pne names Of the seconds are not known.
Brocktou left Nice yesterday. He had
been there six weeks and had played at
the tables almost daily. He was quite
DODular.

He had never seen her papa and her

VERY INTERESTING OBSERVATIONS.
The American Psychological Society
hears Discussion on Dreams and
Dreamers,

NNoh7 q Dscu4slOn on Dreams ana
Dreamers.
PHILADELPHIA, PA, December 2S.-At
the closing days session Of the American
Psychological Society an interesting series
or observations Of their dreams by two sub
lects formed the principal topic of an ad-
dress oy DR.. l.. Z. Sanford. Of Clark Uni
verSlty. The observers during six weeks
had 500 dreams, OF which they took notes,
The records showed that most of tue
dreams occurred after i. m, that the
most vivid, long ana connected occurred
Ia the morning, fully 80 per cent were con-
cerning the affairs Of the day, while the
remainder were fgncifuL. Only 10 per
cent could be attributed with certainty to
external stimulation, while there appeared
20 DO no difference IN the character Of
morning aud evening dreams.
Visual Imagery dominated over auditory
imagery in the proportion OF 10 10 u. DR..
Sanford found ne justification for the be-
lief that reason, will and attention are DOR
maut during sleep.
The two observers differed as to the emo
tions dominating their dreams, one Of them
having uniformly pleasant experiences
while the other dreams were generally dis
agreeable. The speaker concluded that
we dream most of those things which we
have actually experienced - and that the
seusOry element IS the largest, small as
sOciatOry element being built up from IT,
Another series of experiments was made
at the Psychological Laboratory Of Clark
University TO test the daily variations OF
the human intellect by committing syllables
