The rounds up to the twentieth were very
tiresome TO watch owing to Lavigns's run
ning-away style OF fighting. In the latter
part OF the twenty-first a knockout was ex-
pected. "a Lavigne changed his mind cen
corning his unpopular way of doing battle,
and rally ensued from which both con-
testants retired pretty well pumped out
BuEge showed strong signs of growing
weakness after the thirtieth round, and
Lavigne, who was the fresher man, adopted
a system OF jabbing which began to tell on
tile Australian as the rounds advanced.
The betting iii the ball changed TO even
money. and those who played the short end
in the pools looked happy, as they expected
Lavigne, who is many years the junior of
Burge, to wear out the old man In q long
race. In the thirty-sixth round Burge
got heavy jabbng. which sent
him TO his corner bit groggy. His left
eye was almost closed. 1t now looked a. il
He had the best of the thirty-seventh and
thirty-eighth rounds. II was said that
Lavigne injured his right hand in the fifth
round.
He did not use il at all in the last rounds
of the mill, although he had many chances
to let it go at favorable marks. In the
fOrty-second round Lavigne tried a wicked
La Blanche swing at Burge. which he
missed. Loud shouts of ''FoulP' followed,
as the blow was considered barred
The referee decided that it was only
half swing. and could not therefore be-
counted as being foul blow. The fight
progressed until the fftieth round, when
Referee Sullivan said that he must stop the
battle and call il a draw. Layigne's right
hand Is In bad state.

TIE opening event of the evening was a
10-ronnd go between Purcell and Mulyer-

whether the la Blanche" swing or pivot
blow should be used, and finally the club
directors decided that such blow was foul.

before the men made their appearance. The

HAS M'NAB JOINED RAINBY I?
RHmOred Combination of the
Local Democrats.
a Scheme TO Capture Six Of the Assembly
Districts to Hold the Balance Of
Power If Possible.

The row in the Democratic party is stin
on and it looks as if il could not be abated
by the leaders In spite of their efforts
Sam Rainey, il is claimed, has entered into
a combination with Gavin McNab, and the
compact, if carried out. is full Of signifi-
canoe. Rainey is still al the head of the
Fire Department, and the members of that
organization are still in his employ. Nc
Nab is supposed, or was, until recently, to
have weight in the executive committee of
the party. The understanding was that
together they were 10 arrange for the con-
troll of the Twenty-eighth, Twenty ninth,
1birtieth, Forty-f first, FoIty-third aud Forty
fourth districts.
In order to control the districts in ques-
ton the members of the Fire Department
came To be called in. and the chief instru-
mentalitieS were the members of Truck .
and Engine y. The boys who run with
those two machines have been I'M
usually active Of late, and their signatures,
it iselaimed, will appear on the club
rolls in more than one district They
are among the bandiest men in the
town when primary is on hand, and
RRIney hopes 10 use them to pull his little
scheme through BY doing this he would
be enabled 10 control six districts out OF the
Is in the city, and by this means it is more
than likely, If successful, he would hold the
balance of power In the convention.
The only hitch Is that Mr. McNab does
not seem able TO hold up his eud of the com
bine. Gavin tried to force his way through
tile executive COMMITTEES a few nights ago
and was badly knocked cut. Sullivan and
Dwyer seemed TO hold the whip. hand. and
whenever a contest arose they got TIE hest

is that Rainey's coalition is in danger of

danger. so far as appearances 60, of passing
into the hands of Judge Sullivan, who
does not attempt to conceal his indifference
to McNab's action.
