DEATH BLOW TO PUGILISM.
The Killing of Miller Will Knock
Out PugiliStic Clubs.

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 25.-The indi-
cations are that the killing of Billy
Miller by Del Hawkins III their fight
last night will be serious blow to
pugllism in California. All the
evening papers here printed edi-
torials denouncing prize fighting
as conducted here, and calling on the
legislature to pass the bill already
introduced to prohibit exhibitions of
boxing. Advices from Sacramento this
evening state thst the bill making prize
fighting a felony has been passed.
There have been number of fatal ring
events in this city within the past few
years, and the killing Of Miller will re-
vive interest in the slaughtering of Tom
Avery by Ed Cuffe at the Cremorne,
the killing of Kelly by Tug Wilson and
the murder of Harry Mcbride by Frank
Larue at the Golden Gate club.
Billy Miller. the dead pugilist,
was a sturdy little Swede, about
twenty-one years of age. He fought be-
cause he loved it,and not for a business.

Glow the Winner Of the Foley

Tourney.
The Globe Bowling Tourna-
ment Drawing Toward
a Close.
First Series for the Reber
Switchboard Emblem Won
by the Globe.
An Interesting Review Of All
the Sports Current in
the City. q,

The Foley balk line billiard tourna-
ment had a happy ending. Charley
Glow is now wearing the emblem, sub
ject to challenge. and the first chal-
lenge game will not be played until
next week. SO it will be seen that
Glow can have little glory out of his
play, even If he does not finally sue
ceed in defending his championship
rights.
WIlmot and Thayer, 1t will be noted,
are tie for the second and third prize,
and also for the first and second chal-
lenge rights, and they must play of.
Mr.. Foley has set this game for Wedhes-
day evening, and it will doubtless at
tract a big crowd of spectators. Bing-
ham and Estes will also have to play off
their tie later, and there is lots of fun
in store for the lovers Of amateur bill
iards.
1T
The DAILY GLOBE bowling tourna-
ment continues the exciting theme of
tons in the Capital City. Who will
win? That is the question that eXcites
general controversy, although the Uni
Versity Avenue club still has shade
the best of the tourney. In the number
of pins bowled down the Calumet Social
club stands first, the University Avenue
second and the SUBMITS third, but they
do not so rank in point of percentage,
as will be noted in the table Subjoined.
+++
Tomorrow evening the game will be
between the Press club and the Sum
mits, and Tuesday evening the GLOBE
Printers and Columbia club will play off
their postponed game. These events
will prove Of particular interest for the
fact that each team is improving in
speed with later practice work.

Charley Moth recently issued strong
challenge to Jack King. He offered to
wrestle for any reasonable stakes at
catch-as-catch-can style, and he agreed
to win three out of five falls or lose the
match, and should King win two falls
he should be declared the winner.
Friday King promised to give his an
Swer yesterday. Instead, he suddenly
left the city, and it is reported that he
has no intention Of returning. Moths
friends are unanimous in the opinion
that King will not make another match
with Moth on any terms. They have
had two contests, and the sporting fra
ternity is pretty unanimous in pro-
nouncing Moth invincible. 1t is ru-
mored that King has gone to Decorah.
To-. but others assert that he has gone
back to Montana. Moth is expected in
the city in a week or two.

NOT MUCH LIGHT.

EX-Secretary of the Treasury Fairehild
did not shed much light on the financial
situation at the annual dinner of the New
York Board of Trade. Being called upon
to respond to the toast, Finance and Cur
rency." Mr.. Fairehild said: Remove the
ereFnmental trammels from our currency
aud the people will supply themselves
with currency that will be safe and suffi-
Client" 1t is supposed that the govern
mental trammels" Mr.. Fairchild wants re-
moved are the tax on State bank circula-
ton. He seems TO think that if the States
could charter banks of circulation the cur
rency problem would be solved. Most
other people than Mr.. Fairchild learn
something from experience. Before the
war State banks issued about as much cur
rency as there was a demand for. While
there were carefully conducted State banks
there were others that gave their notes and
charged interest on them according to the
demand. The consequence was that there
was no currency that was good for its face
out of its local field of circulation. A Bos-
ton bankbill would be at discount in New
York, and 4 Boston man getting a New
York bill would lose no time in getting it
changed into local currency. This lack Of
confidence arose from the fact that there
was no governmental trammels The few
banks that were really solvent kept little
coin ON hand to redeem notes with. The
insolvent banks proposed to make as much
as possible out of their circulation while
their day lasted, and pay as little as posi-
BILE when night should come on. The Fed
eral law taxing the circulation OF State
banks put stop to this kind of swindle.
In recent years no man has lost dollar
through the failure of a bank issuing cur
rency according to law.

RAILROAD BUILDERS.

The account Of James J. Hlll's perform
anee in the way of railroad building in
Sundays CALL reads like a romance. If
Mr.. Hill were the imaginary hero of
Work of fiction the critic would say that the
picture was overdrawn. But the Great
Northern Railroad exists as a proof that
Mr.. Hill is about the kind of man he Is de-
scTibed to be. Mr.. Hill has had about
twenty-five years of business experience.
He EN- barked in the transp ortation business
early in life, and is now the manager and
chief owner of the great trunk railroad
which is causing so many misgvines in the
minds Of the managers OF the Northern Pa
cifc and the Canadian Pacific. He mas
builded the Great Northern at lower cost
per mile than either of the competing
roads, and builded it more solidly and on
lower grades. One result is that be can
make money at rates which would bank
rCpt his competitors. Mr.. Hill did not have
q choice of routes. He took the best route
that was left. He could not cause noun
tains to disappear. but he could find way
through them. Mr.. HIPS principle OF doing
business is in exact contrast TO that which
the railroad managers of this State have
adopted. His leading idea has been to
build up the country through which his
road passed. He made it posi- bic for men
to live along his route, and never quarreled
with man who contrived to make little
money. He has never been heard of at
Washington asking for subsidies. nor is he
known in politics. He has not thought 1t
necessary TO own conventions and courts
TO prevent hostile legislation. No stories
are told Of his having attempted to corrupt
the law-making bodies of tile States
through which his railroad passes. At the
first glance one would say that man work
ing for the good of the community first, and
his own good second. would OF succeed as
money-maker Yet il is known that Mr.
Hin owns the greater part Of his road, aud
further estimate fixes his fortune at
S25.C0O,oG0. If he should live to the age of
our best-known railroad kings be will DE
richer Chan any of them. The temptation
TO draw parallel between the methods of
this Northern Railroad builder and of the
builders with whom California has had a
closer acquaintance is strong. but we prefer
to let the reader do IL for hi n,sa1f
