WHIPPED
The GREAT PUGILlSTiC CHAMPION
CHAMPION NO MORE.

The Big Fellow Knocked Out in Twenty
ono Rounds by the Clever Californian.
Oorbett's Long Reach and Scientific
Work Land Him Winner without a
Scratch.
New ORLEANS, Sept. 8.-The king is
'deadl Long live the king! Sullivan
was and is not. The crown of champion
ship belongs to the Californian, and
nanght but bitterness of feeling and
deep humiliation fall to the lot of him
who was the idol of thousands of people.
1t was a game fight. No one can deny
the fact. Sullivan made the fight of his
life, but like the unconquered Napoleon
the Great he met his Waterloo. Youth,
science, generalship, height and reach
proved too much for brute Drawn
backed by a list marked by victories
and unmarried by defeat.
s5Ssbett's supreme egotism and self
conceit stood well in the hour Of trial.
If he was nervous or fearful of the out
come, it was not discernable to the cas-
ual locker on. His every motion seemed
to say Il am VICTOR" and bravely it was
borne out. Each round gave him re-
newed confidence, and, as he avoided the
PUSHES of his Titanic opponent with ease,
faith in himself grew stronger. Cor
belts superb generalship awoke' re-
peated applause. Sullivan's deadly
right might have been paralized for all
the execution it accomplished. At no
stage of the game was Sullivan really
dangerous, and as the fight went on
round after round Corbett's chances in
creased in corresponding ratio. The
fight lasted twenty-one rounds, Sullivan
being completely knocked out before
the end of the last round.
The Corbett men are naturally jubilant
while the Sullivanites are correspond
ingly depressed. However, they have
no excuse to make and admit their man
was fairly and honestly whipped. 1t is
an instance of pitcher going to the
well once too often.
Corbett's title to the worlds cham
pionship will be attacked at once. Joe
Goddard is here with backing and is
anxious to fight, but Peter Jackson,
with whom Corbeet fought draw, will
doubtless have the preference. Corbett
knows no such thing as the color line,
and the next big battle will doubtless
be of international interest.

REFUSED ALL APPEALS.

Residents OF Fire Island Display an Utter
Lack of All Feelings of Humanity.
FIRE ISLAND, N. Y, Sept. 12.-The
people here appear to have lost all sense
of humanity. They have been appealed
to in the name of God to permit the old
est women and the youngest children to
be taken to the hotel for the night that
their lives might be saved and have re-
fused with brutal jeers. Even since night
fall the display of cruelty is well-nigh
inconceivable. After the Cepheus came
to anchor two police officers rowed to
the landing and asked that letter be
taken to DR.. Wright. The mob refused
to allow the letter to come ashore, and
drove the police officers off with threats.
AS it as getting dark and unsatisfactory
answer had arrived from the first boat,
second boat put of from the steamer,
rowed by two police. In thestern stood
tall, gray haired man-Robert Thomp-
son. AS he approached the landing the
mob gathered threateningly. He asked
to be heard in behalf of the 300 women
and children on the steamer who were
suffering from
Hunger. Exposure and Exhaustion.
After several minutes of insulting re-
torts by the mob he was allowed to
speak. He said the men on the steamer
did not ask to land. The young women
would remain if necessary, but the old
women and the children should be al
lowed to land. They would be returned
to the steamer after nights rest and
one meal. Attorney Willard P. Reid
answered that if the captain of the
steamer wonld come ashore, the people
for whom he spoke would consider the
request. Mr.. Thompson returned to the
steamer after saying that he would at
tempt to bring the captain back with
him. 1t was dark except for the light
of the stars when the boat was seen pull
ing back to the landing again. When
the boat almost touched the landing a
tall, spare figure was seen standing in
the bow. sit is Senator McPherson, of
New jersey" called out Mr.. TIL ompson,
who was still in the stern.
McPherson's Appeal.
Senator Mcpherson stood silent for
some moments looking at the mob,
"Citizens," said the senator at last, 81
appeal to you in the name of God not to
be led into heartless cruelty by this at
torney, but to give yopr consent that
these women and children can DO taken
from this boat where they have nothing
. to eat and no place to sleep; where the
common decencies of life cannot be
longer observed; whers the surround
ings are foul from seasickness. Wait
before you answer. Think what you
will be doing. Remember your own
own wives and children, Be manly.
Do not bring an everlasting disgrace
upon your names. Be men,"
1t did not seem as though human be-
ings capable of understanding the
language in which they were being adj
dressed could Withstand the appeal but
the crowd stood there sullen and silent
while the lawyer said:
"They cannot land. If we permit
chem to it will give away our case"
''They cannot land" the mob chimed
in.
7 When the boat rowed back to the
steamer the newspaper men who had
listened to this appeal went to every
member Of the Islip health board who
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1892-09-15
were present and begged that This hofA
rible crime be not committed. AT naiL-

past eight o'clock meeting OF the
board was held and a resolution was
passed that if DIR. Vought would go with
Lawyer Reid to the steamer and see that
the Injunction papers were served the
board would allow food and blankets to
be taken aboard. The excitement did
not abate in the slightest degree after
the Cepheus had withdrawn to the
stream. The crowd remained on the
dock, muttering threats and swearing
that the people on the excursion vessel
could rot before they would be allowed
to land.

MoNTANA's CONTEST.

A Decision by Which the Republicans
VIII Probably Gain Control.
HELENA. MONT. Dec. 24.-The demo-
Gratis got a blackeye in the contested cleo
ton case yesterday. John Henry, registry
agent and one of the judges at the Box
Elder precinct at the recent election, was
put On the stand and the check lists, official
register and poll book showed the names
of sixteen alleged Illegal voters, five Of
whom came from Havre and voted at Box
Elder. He knew every one of the alleged
illegal voters personally, and had known
them since 1879. A decision in the case was
reached this morning. The court to-day
issued a writ to compel the canvassers Of
Choteau county to meet and canvass the
voters of Box Elder precinct This is a
victory for the republicans, as with this
precinct counted in 10 elects a republican
and gives them the legislature.
The decision will give the seat in the
lower House awarded to Hamilton, dem. to
Leers, rep, and will make the legislature
stand 35 democrats, SO republicans and 8
populists. One Of the latter is likely
to vote with the democrats, but it seems
probable that, the republicans will unseat two
more democrats in the House thus giving
the republicans majority. The fight for
control, however, will be very bitter with
some chances that there will be a dual
legislature as in 1889. If this occurs, the
United States Senate itself will be called
upon TO settle the question of who Is Gu
titled to the seat in that body.

relief Is not sufficient to prevent the ruin of
the inhabitants. Crops are an utter failure
and the condition Of the farmers is even
worse than In 1891. The rich have
become poor, and the poor have become
beggars. The peasants use the roofs Of their
huts for fuel on account Of tho dearth Of
straw, coal and wood. Typhus fever is
raging to an alarming extent among the
people. Fever sufferers lie huddled to-
Rether In their roofiess huts without attend
snoe and without bread.
