Joe Wolcott Defeats 1on Tracy. an Aua
traiiHn, In Boston.

BOSTON, MASS, April D.-Joe WAL
colt. the colored welter-weight, OF Bos-
ton. bested Tom Tracy. the Australian.
at Music Hall tonight In the presence Of
1909 people. The contest was announced
as one OF ten rounds. but at the explra-
ton Of that limit neither man showed
any desire or intention to discontinue the
battle. and it was carried on to d finish,
which came In the sixteenth round. Wal
colt is much the stockier Of the two. and
appeared stronger all through. but Tracy
was very agile. and saved himself much
punishment by his clever duckinS and
clinchIng after his own delivery. The
fight was lively one throughout and up
TO the very last round.
Tracy stood his punishment well. and
he received plenty Of II, coming up smil-
ing in the sixteenth, after receiving sew
eral severe facers just before the call
of time in the previous round. In the
last round Walcott forced the fighting.
Tracy In duckng slipped. and at the
same time received a right under-cut on
the jaw, which foored him. He was up
again Immediately. but Woicott ran at
him and downed him again. Tracy made
another stand. but very feeble one, and
it required but a mere expenditure of
force to finish the round and the fight.

EVICIED TENANTS BILL.
Chief Secretary for Iraiand Morley Advo-
Gates Tia Passage.

LONDON. April BIN the House Of
| Commons John Morley. CnIef Secretary
for Ireland introduced the evicted ten
ants bill Mr.. Morley said It was pro-
posed 10 establish "A board of arbitration.
whose term Of existence would be three
years. This board would be empowered
10 issue orders reinstating tenants upon
being petitioned to DO so. These orders
would be made c0nditiOnaly, but IL there
was no opposition on the part of the
landlords the orders would be made absO-
lutte. In cases where landlords opposed
the Issuance of such orders the board OF
arbitration would investigate the matter
and decide IL finally. Meanwhile the ten
ant would reoccupy his holding until a
fair rental was fixed either by the board
OF arbitration or the land commission.
Coming 10 the question OF the funds
at the disposition OF the board Mr..
Morley said It was proposed to appro-
pirate 1O0,OOJ pounds from the tempo
ralities OF the Irish Church ~oa-
ton cries OF "On, on and loud Irish
cheers greeted this statement. This
sum, Mr. Morley said, would be used by
the arbitrators only for the purposes
already mentioned. The expenses Of
the administration and the salaries OF
the arbitrators and their official star
would be paid from the consolidated fund
This measure is not brought forward
In any spirit Of partnership" said Mr..
Morley, i'm closing. There is no desire
TO give either party a triumph over the
other. The Government wishes 70 heal
the deep wound IN the social condition
Of Ireland. For this purpose Of healing
they commend the measure 70 the House"
Mr. Balfour opposed the bill.
Timothy Harrington Parnelite) said
that the bin was disappointing and
would never satisfy Ireland. its object
seemed TO be to humbug the people.
John Dillon (anti-Parnellite) declared |
the bill to be exceedingly valuable The !
tenants would receive IT gladly. he. said. |
under the terms OF compensation provided |
by IT.
Thomas Sexton (anti-Parnellite) said |
that It was not an ideal BILL yet as good !
