GETS OFF DRY DOCK.

Cruiser New York Floated Safely.
NEW YORK, Sept. lS.-The
cruiser New York came out of dry
dock at the navy yard at high tide
yesterday. 1t was a difficult mat
ter to float the ship, as she draws
26 feet Slnches Of water, while the
depth across the port side OF the
dry dock at mean high water is
but % feet 3 inches. The tide yes
terday morning was exceptionally
high however, and the cruiser came
off the sill without scraping. Cap
tain Robert Evans and his execu-
tive officer, Lieut.. VIM. Swift, were
on the bridge. Naval constructor
Frank l.. Fernan superintendent
operations from the shore. 1t was
thought that the ship could be
made ready for sea in about three
weeks. The officers are still igno-
rant of the proposed destination of
the ship on her next cruise. The
battle ship Maine may get away
from the navy yard on her official
trip tomorrow. Great interest at.
taches to the performance of the
Names engine and the contractor
is anxious to have the trial over.
Considerable interior fitting needs
to be done on the ship, but this
will be attended to in day or
two. All that will be attempted at
this time is the development Of her
horse power. Captain Francis M.
Bunds, who is to command her,
was at the navy yard yesterday to
consult with the commandant.

OBJECTED TO THE DOG
Sleeping in the Hotel-Brings
Two Prominent People Into
Court

SOuIIs
CHICAGO, Sept. Isl. B. Ross,
manager of the HotelsWindermer,
Hyde Park, and r. ID. Buchanan,
a wealthy New Yorker, said to be
a brother-in-law of r. G. Dun, are
causing each others arrest on va
rious charges, because Mr.. Ross re-
fuses to allow Buchanan's white
bull dog to occupy his masters
apartments. Buc hanan and G. ID.
Douglass ordered apartments
from New York and sent four
trunks, two grips and a BIZ
cycle ahead; also to have the
rooms decorated with flowers.
They arrived Saturday and trouble
began when Buchanan insisted on
having the bull put in his quarters.
He would accept no compromise.
Ross was firm, however, and the
bull pup and his owner went to
the Chicago Beach hotel. An ex-
press man, who went for the bag
gage, was met with bill for the
sto rage of baggage and holding the
rooms. Buchanan swore out a
warrant before Justice Porter
charging Ross with stealing his
baggage. Ross retaliated by swear
ing out a warrant against Buchan-
al for perjury. 1t will take half
"a dozen lawyers to straighten out
matters before Justice Quinn this
morning

A PUNCHING EXHIBITION
GIVEN LAST NIGHT RY THE CHI
OAGO ATHLETIC CLUB.
Joe Choynskl Knocks Out Mike
Boden, the "Trial Horse
in Three Rounds

CHICAGO, Sept. 1S.-An athletic
entertainment of more than ordin-
airy interest was held at Tattersall
last night under the management
of Parson davies" The main
event on the program was an eight
round contest between Billy
Woods, of Denver, and Harry
Baker, of Chicago. The two men
weighed about ITO pounds each.
Round 1.-The men came to.
gether and after some sparring
went at each other furiously.
Baker scored a knock down soon
after the opening of the round and
Baker again knocked his man
down and, but for the call of time,
would have had him out.
Round 2.-The call of time alone
saved Woods in this round, Baker
knocking him down four times
and having all the best Of it.
Round 3.-Woods came up some
what fresher, but could not stand
the severe punishment of Baker.
From the talking between the men
it seemed to be fake and not on
its merits, as claimed.
Round 4.-This was hard round,
and while Woods was again
knocked down at the end, he
seemed to hold his own with Baker,
who was weak on his pins.
Round 5--Both seemed tired and
did more walking around than
anything else.
Round 6.-This was productive
of some hard hitting, and Baker
had all the best of it, seeming to
have his man nearly out. Call Of
time saved Woods.
Round IA knock down was
scored by Baker searly in this
round, and two more soon follow
ed, the third being such a heavy
one that Woods, while he got on
his feet before being counted out
was in such shape that he could
not have lasted another round.
The referee stopped the fight at
the end of this round.
A three round go between Joe
Porter, of Portland, and Jim Hunt
ington, of San Francisco, feather
weights, who boxed three rounds to
the satisfaction of the crowd, fol-
lowed. The wind-up Of the even
ing was now announced by Joe
Choynski, of California, and Mike
Boden, the "Trial Horse" Choynski
was to attempt to put his man out
in four rounds. He started in the
first round to finish Boden and
knocked the latter down twice, but
clinching saved Boden from a
knock out. 1t came, however, in
the third round, after Boden had
been several times knocked down,
once through the ropes. Boden
was badly punished while
ChOynski had not scratch. This
ended the evenings entertainment.
