FEW BETS IN JERSEY CITY.
Surgeon Nevin and Judge McGrath
Made Small sums on Corbett.

Surgeon Nevin and Judge IcGrath
Made Small sums on Corbett.
The local sports had but little money on
the Corbett- Mitchell contest. Everybody
who wanted to bet at all had picked Corbett
as a winner and no matter what odds there
offered there were no takers. The bets on
the contest, as whole were for cigars. The
result was not disputed by anyone, and such
bets as were made, were as to the number OF
rounds Mitchell would last At. Phil Null
doon's, where some "sporty" men chang
out, )" the fight was discussed merely for the
want of something better.
At Foley & Cahill's, where the Scottish
American ''scrappers" congregate, it ap-
peared to be the consensus of opinion that
Mitchell was 'bluff" a ''sprinter", ''wrest-
ler", anything but a fighter. Pat Cahill de-
clared he couldn't get bet of any kind on
Corbett Even Jimmy" Hunt, who brought
home $4,000 of Sullivan money when the
big John L. fell before Corbett at New Or
leans, did not make bet. He said the fight
wasn't worth placing bet on Tommy"
Cummings, who is well posted on the quail
ties of both men last night said:-
''I am surprised that Corbett didn't put
him out in the first round when he got shot
at him. Corbett should have put him out
without allowing him to touch him."
There was not, to all appearances, any
money lost or won in this city on the fight
FOuce surgeon NeNlu was ole u Olie te"
winners on the fight He managed to place
500 to $40 three times on Corbett. Last
night he spent part of the $120 with his
friends. Wine flowed freely.
A stranger made his appearance at the
Court House yesterday morning and
wanted to bet 5 to 1 on Corbett.
George Bowly heard him, and producing a
roll of bills from his pocket declared his in
tention of taking all the stranger would put
up. The fresh young man dove down in his
pockets. and after ten minutes search pro-
duced a badly crumpled 81 bill. Bowly put
up twenty cents against the dollar, and, Of
course, lost it. He took all the bluff out of
the stranger, however.
The dignified Judge McGrath is also said
to be winner. He caught S. bet with
Freeholder Ellis.

The motion being put Messrs. Hammond
and Watson voted aye, Mr. Harmon nay.
The motion prevailed.
The following motion was made by
Mr.. Harmon, who moved its adoption:
Whereas. 1t has come to the knovl-
edge Of the Board of County Commits
sioners Of Custer County. Montana, sitt-
! irg az a Board OF Equalization, through
communication made by the State Board
! Fgua..Zation to tie Clerk Of this
Board. that the said State Board of
Equalization has by order increased the
valuation of cattle in Custer County,
.032 per cent and horses of said county
.lSS per cent for the year 1897; therefore
be it.
Resolved. BY this Board. that in the
! estimation and opinion OF this Board
such increase is wholly unjust To the
stock owners and taxpayers of Custer
! County. and this Board desires To state
to the Honorable State Board of Equa
llzation. that while stock cattle were
assessed ~ the Assessor in the County
of Custer for the year 1894 at $1,000
sixteen dollars per head, it rs represented
to this Board, on sufficient evidence.
which the Board wholly credits and now
believes. that such assessment was too
high, and that the same ought to be IN
the matter Of equalization decreased in
stead Of increased This Board has
abundant evidence now before IT that
sales of cattle have been made in this
County during the current three months
past at ~ 20 10 SlGoU per head to be
delivered by the seller. The highest
price obtained for any cattle sold in this
County. So far as the evidence appears
before this Board is $1,000 per head. and
the lowest price that has been given is
sli.Ju, the seller IN every case tu gather
and deliver the cattle. the cost of which
according To the evidence before this
; Board. i from s..UO 10 $500 per head
, These are the prices for which cattle
have been sold ia Custer county this
, season. In no case has TINS Board been
informed 81 any sale higher than slG.Ou
per head. and 10 tins price. a. before
stated.is attached the condition. the sci
Ter delivering the cattle at the cost as
above stated. So that this Board is en-
tirely convinced that the assessment Of
slGUO az made 10y the assessor of tins
county Is too high. and that such -
StssntLl ought TO bc reduced fdlnt!
than increased. In relation to the mat
ter Of horses. this Board can state to the
} State Board Of Equalization. what is
perhaps generally known, that there is
, almost no sale at all for horses in this
, section Of the state. at any price; such
stock almost literally has no marketable
, value at all.
, In view Of these facts. this Board re
spectfully request the Honorable State
} Board Of Equalization not TO increase the
valuation on either cattle or horses il
this county, but to at least leave th'
, valuation Of such property where IT was
placed 10y the assessor of the county

az already stated. Was too high.

Right Doing.

Right doing is a very simple thing,
but right doing is not always an easy
thing. A straight line is the shortest
line possible between any two given
points, yet as practical matter it would
be easier to draw dozen crooked lines
than one straight one in offhand draw
ing. All of us can see the way of right
living, but who of us can walk in that
way without wavering:

Special Telegram 70 THE GLOBE.
Chicago, July No serious trouble
has occurred here so far today. The
strikers are evidently Overawed by the
United States troops. Serious develop
ments were expected today, as this was
supposed TO be the crisis but the cle-
ments are comparatively quiet.
The Blue Island yards are cleared
ready for business, and no further trouble
is anticipated from this quarter. The
prompt action of the government in
sending Federal troops to the scene pre-
vented serious riot at that point.
Part of the troops from Blue Island
have been renewed to the city. The stri'
ers say they will do nothing so long as
the soldiers remain, but will tie up the
road as soon as they leave. Matters
opened brisk in the stock yards this
morning, the troops being distributed at
the points of vantage. The Federal
troops made..the first charge on the stri-
kers today. Ninety soldiers under Major
Har,z dispersed 5000 men who were
blocking the way of a meat train, from
the big Swift packing house.
The soldiers moved through the crowd
at double-quick with fixed bayonets,
and the crowd started and dispersed.
The Illinois Central road resumed its
suburban train service this morning.
The Grand Trunk line discharged all
men who have been connected with the
strike.
