Charley Mitchell and His Idea of

A Second Meeting Between Hall and
Fitzsimmons That Might Have
Turned Out Differently.


NEW ORLEANS, March 9-There came
near being an mprovsed fight at the Cres-
cent City Club this afternoon. Fitzsimm0ns
visited the clubhouse and started to write a
letter when Jim Hall, Charley Mitchell and
squire" Abingdon Baird and McAuliffe
entered. Fizsimm0ns wore a bout0nniere,
and McAuliffe remarked:
Some Of US are wearing flower. gardens
to-day. That is nice, now. amt t?"
FtzimmOns said nothing, though joining
in the laugh the remark provoked. This
was taken as personal affront by Abingdon
Baird, who spoke his mind freely, netting
FitzsimmOns considerably. The latter arose
and declared his Willingness to do anything
in the way OF making things lively for every
body concerned. Then Mitchell took hand
in the argument and declared that every
man in the Hall party was gentleman.
At this moment President Noel came in
and the men quit talking.
After the incident Fitzsimmons said that
the only thing that deferred him from act
ing rashly was the fact that he was the
guest of the club. Later Filzsimmons made
a statement to the effect that Warren Lewis,
Halls Oacker, had made him a proposition
to whack up the purse evenly, and let Hall
and him fight for the honor Of the victory

How the Union Pacific Cut Into
Passenger Business.
1t Was All Extremely DisagreeabIe TO
MIR. Stubbs and a Few
Other People.
Special to THE MoRN1xo CALL

CHICAGO, March "a morning paper
says a private dispatch from San Fran
cisco states that 2 meeting oflocal passenger
agents was held there Tuesday, at which
Vice-President Stubs Of the Southern Pa
cifc and General Manager Wade Of the
Southern California were present TIE OBJ
Ject Of the meeting was to consider the de-
moralzed condition Of passenger business,
brought about by the action Of the Union
Pacific in establishing Peter Mcdonald.
New York emigraut agent, in business for
the coast, aud In paying large comm issious
TO control eastbound business.
The fact developed that Tenbroeck, the
general Eastern passenger agent of the
Union Pacinc, in company with Mcdonald,
visited all important points in California.
and made arrangements with scalpers every
where to send business exclusive via the
Union Pacific. Rates. it is claimed, have
been cut from Sc to 81 on large numbers Of
tickets.
Evidence was introduced by the Burling-
ton, Rock Island, AtchisOn, Colorado Mid
land and Denver and Ko Grande showing
the Union Pacific has not been dealing
fairly with competitors. 1t was claimed
that as soon as President S. II. II. Clark Of
the Union Pacific signed the presidents
agreement for the maintenance of east
bound passenger rates from the Pacific
Coast, General Passenger Agent Lomax
sent Tenbroeck from New York to Cali
fornia to make deals with the scalpers.
Hitchcock, general agent of the Union
Pacific at San Francisco. claims to have no
knowledge of any such transactions on the
part OF his company, and those in attend
ance at the meeting came to the conclusion
that somebody higher III authority than
Hitchcock is responsible.
Vice-President Subbs and General Man
aGer Wade agreed to send dispatch to
President Clark, requesting an explanation
for the violation OF the agreement on the
part Of the passenger officials of his road.
1t is feared that unless President Clark
takes immediate and decisive action to stop
the demoralizing work of his passenger off.
cials serious war on eastbound passenger
rates from the Pacific Coast will be the re-
suit. The meeting adjourned to await
Clark's explanation.
A meeting Of the agents of the transcOn-
tncntal lines was held to-day to consider
Worlds Fair rates from the Pacific Coast.
The matter was left in the hands of a COM
mttee 10 report tomorrow. but it is proba-
bic that a round-trip rate of $50 will be rec
ommeIded.

GUILTY OF TREASON.
Mighty Uncomfortable This Is For
a Chinese Statesman.
The Board of Censors Says That
HOung Tchun Should Be
Punished by Death.
Special to THE MoRSISG CALL

PEKIEG, March 9.-The Board of Cen
sors, through Superior Censors HOuai Ia
Hou and Scum CHA Mai. have presented to
the Emperor charges Of the most serious
character against Houng Tenn, formerly
Minister to Russia and Germany, and now
a member OF the Tsung-Ii Yamen, or
Council of Foreign Affairs. Houng Tchun
is accused of treason and corruption in
having renounced the rights of the Chinese
Empire TO portions OF the Pamir region and
transferred the same to Russia, to the
great injury and the loss of China. The
Censors demand that the punishment Of
death be inflicted upon Houng Tchun.
Inc charges have caused much excite
ment in the Chinese court, Houng Tchun
being man Of great Influence and being
under the protection Of the surviving Em-
press DOwager, Tsou Hsi. commonly known
as the Western Empress. who, although
lately withdrawn from power, still possesses
a most influential voice in the affairs Of the
imperial Government.
Russian aggressions in the Pamir region
have excited great irritation in Picking, and
there is a disposition to deal severely with
all who have afforded any pretexJ for those
aggressions. 1t is said for this reason
Houng Tchun has been marked cut as a
victim by the Board Of Censors in order to
satisfy the public clamOr.

Special to THE MORNING CALI

CHICAGO, March 9-The decision which
the board of general managers of the roads
centerinG in Chicago reached yesterday, that
the demands Of the switchmen for an in
crease OF wages could not be granted, was
communicated officially to the committees
representing the men on the respective lines
this afternoon. Whether the men will
strike is not yet certain, but there IS no
doubt that the roads are firmly allied and
better prepared to meet difficulty than at
any time in recent years. The reasons for
refusing the demands Of the men are given
in a circular presented to each committee
They are in the nature OF a resolution
adopted by the general managers. and are
to the effect that wages on all the Chicago
lines are practically uniform, and are higher
than were ever before paid for similar ser
vice, and better wages than are paid in
many localities. Further, the revenue of
the roads is constantly decreased, and tie
expenses are being increased to such an
extent that no advance can be granted
Grand Master Wilson Of the Swllchmen's
Association talks in a very conservative
manner about tile probability OF a strike,
and will not say what the men will do.
He added that the matter would not be
decided before the end of this week or the
beginning of next.

HILL AND CLEVELAND.
A Meeting of Which Great Events
Nav Grow.


WASHINGTON, March 9.-Political circles
are agog over the fact that Senator David
B. Hill spent nearly half an hour in private
consultation with President Cleveland at
the White House this morning.
When Hill entered the Presidents room
word was sent that Cleveland was very
busy, and could not see any other visitors
for some time. The interview, of course,
was strictly of a private character; but
from the fnct that it had been previously
arranged and from its length, there can be
little doubt that it was more than of a mere
official-sOcal character. When Hill had
finished with the President he lost no time
in leaving the White House.
