it was found that the growth of the

JIM HALL WHIPS SLATIN.
It Was a Very Tame Affair
Throughout.
SEVEN ROUNDS FOUGHT.
SlaYin Was OutgeneraIed at Every
Point by His Adversary
In the Fifth Round He Was Knocked
Down and in the Seventh and Last
He Went Down Twice-The
Spectators Disguised.

LONDON, May 29.-Jim Hall met Frank
Slavin at the National Sporting club to-
night for g, $40 a side and a purse OF
S., 800, and knocked him out in the sew
enth rounds The fight was disappoint-
ment to the spectators. Slavin was the
favorite in betting up to the opening OF
the first round, but from the beginning
he made a poor showing. He was COM
pletely outgeneraled at every point by
Hall and unable to offer enough resist
ance to make the contest exciting.
When time was called Slavin's face
wore a dazed expression. He ldrched
heavily twice as he left his corner and
was generally unsteady In his gait. All
ter sparring for a few seconds he walked
directly up to Hall and was received with
staggering right handler which almost
t1oored him. At the end of the round he
went to his corner amid kissing and
groan ing of spectators. In the second
round he showed no improvement.
In the middle of the third round Hall
landed both his right and left on his op-
ponent's head and then gave him
stinger on the jaw and stood away. The
men then fooled about the ring, missing
repeatedly, when they came to close
quarters. At the end the referee warned
them if they did not fight there would be
no purse.
In the fourth not one telling blow was
struck and the fooling of the previous
round was repeated until the spectators
Kissed.
The fifth was better and ended with
Slavin's going down from right handler
on the jaw. Nothing was accomplished
in the sixth.
The seventh round had hardly opened
before Hall hoored Slavin with his left.
Slavin was soon up, but hearing somebody
call time, turned toward the corner and
Hall instantly landed right on Slavin )
jaw and sent him down for good.
The spectators hooted Slavin as he was
carried to his corner. Disappointment
and dissatisfaction with the fight is gen
orally expressed.

WAR IN NICARAGUA.
Minister Baker Is Heard From on the
Condition of Affairs.


Condition of Affairs
WASHINGTON, May 29.-For the first
time since his departure for his post as
minister to Nicaragua Mr.. Baker has
been heard from officially. Secretary
Gresham today received cablegram from
him sent from Nicaragua and dated yes
terday. The cable came by way of La
Libertad, Salvador. The minister thinks
q warship is necessary at Coriento. OF
course he is ignorant of the fact that the
United States war ship Alliance is hasten
ing to that point on the west coast and
expected to arrive Wednesday.
He further says the war between the
government and revolutionists will prob
bly, become bitter, as the latter are ag-
gressive and powerful. No news has
reached the state department indicating
that American residents of Nicaragua are
being treated with harshness, as reported
in kilograms by way OF Salvador.
The Atlanta has arrived at GreytoWn.
Captain Higginson reports landing 100
marines to look after American interests,
but withdrew them Saturday evening at
he suggestion of the United States
consul.
Secretary Gresham has heard nothing
from any authentic source about propo-
Eition to establish protectorate over
Nicaragua. Dr. GuZman, minister from
Nicaragua, explains, In speaking OF the
probability OF protectorate being estab-
lished by the United States, that his pur-
+. pose was to limit his remarks to the canal
land not to apply them to the whole
country. His belief is and always has
been that if the Nicaragua canal is built
the United States will assume a protector
ate over this work.

NATURALIZATION LAWS.
An Important Decision by a United States
Circuit Court.

An Important Decision by United States
Circuit Court.
ST. PAUL, Mimi, May 29.-The
United States circuit court of appeals,
with Judges Sanborn, Thayer and Shiras
on the bench, today handed down an i'm
portant decision, limiting the power of
naturalization to the national Congress.
1t is held that the power granted to Con-
gress by the constitution to establish
uniform rule of naturalization is conclu-
sive and that naturalization laws en-
acted by Congress in the exercise
of this power constitute the only
rule by which former subject may
become a citizen of the United States or
of a state within the meaning of the
federal constitution and laws, and it is
not in the power of a state to denaturalize
a foreign subject who has not complied
with the federal naturalization laws and
constitute him citizen of the United
States or of state. A foreign subject
who is qualified to become citizen of the
United States under the revised statues
does not become such by filing declara
ton OF intention so to do, but he must
comply with all provisions of the federal
Statueg.

IVES AGAINST RoBERTs.
The First of the Series of Games Won by .
Roberts.

LONDON, May 29.-The billiard match
between Frank G. Ives, the American
champion and John Roberts, jr., English
champion, began. the evening. At the
close of the play for the night, Ives had
scored $50 points, Roberts 1000 and was
still playing. The match will last six
nights and is played in Hinley's circus,
place that holds 4, 600 spectators. 1t is
IL, 600 points for %, 500 side. The push
and spot shots are barred, the balls are
2l4 inch ms Q I'd of 2 1-16, the English
standard, ana the American will play the
masse shot, a stroke that is new to Eng
lishmen, and which greatly favors rail
play, on which latter Ives relies to win.
Nobody knows exactly how the match
will end, but it is worth while remem-
bering that Ives is the first American who
went across the water to meet the English
champion at his own game on English
soil. The concessions made to the Ameri-
do not deUract from the credit Of this IN

WORLDS FAIR FLYER.

The Run from New York to Chicago
Made in Twenty Hours.
CHICAGO, May 29.-The Exposition
flyer arrived here at $3.50 am, three min
utes ahead of time. The entire trip was
made without incident or accident.
Generally between stations the train was
slightly ahead of time, and where the
engines were changed, the SHIFT was gen
orally made quickly enough to allow the
pulling out even with the schedule.
Terrific speed was developed at
times. On one stretch of ten
miles the time was six minutes three
seconds or a small fraction over ninety
nine miles per hour. At South Chicago
the train was five minutes behind time,
but it was made up on the run into this
city, with three minutes to spare, though
the city ordinances governing speed were
broken to fragments to do it.

tute, and did all he could to get him q
government position, but the young man
fell and lost all, and his father could dc
no more for him.
