BOSTON, May 2s.-At the Casino to-
night Peter Maher, Ireland's champion,
knocked out George Godfrey. Boston's
colored heavy weight, in the sixth round,
after the greatest battle seen in Boston
for years. Tt a question whether
Godfrey was "out," OF not, but the fact
remains that at no stage Of the proceed
ings did the colored man hold the upper
hand. Frank Stevenson Of New York
was referee.
Round 1-Maher led. landing his left
and right on Godfrey's stomach. A
clinch followed and in the breakaway
Maher again put his left on the darkey's
face. The round closed in a clinch. both
men fighting hard and with Lonors for
Maher
Round 2-Godfrey tried inhghting this
round, bur even at this game Maher
seemed to worst him. He succeeded in
getting his right in on Makers wind, but
in return received a half dozen full in
the face. The darkey made a good rally,
but failed to stop Makers left hand leads
At the close Of the round Godfrey was
dazed, bleeding freely from the nose and
mouth.
Round 3-Both contestants seemed
tired at the call time" Maher found
Godfrey's jaw with his left, but was re-
paid for his trouble by a hot one on the
ribs from Godfrey's right. His success
seemed to encourage the colored man
and he made bold enough to play his left
three times on Makers face They were
easy ones and did no damage. Godfrey
missed vicious swing at Makers jaw
by an inch and the pair sat down.
Round both spared for wind and
then followed hot exchange Maher
getting in a couple Of good lefts. while
the negro placed his right on Makers
ribs to good advantage.
Round 5-Maher was blowing and puff
ing but he still had an eye for Godfrey's
right, and when the latter swung it for
his head, Maher stopped him and it
grazed his jaw
Round 6-The men seesawed for about
a minute and then Maher led viciously
with his left but missed. Godfrey
stepped back, but the Irish lad now COM
menced to rush matters. over went the
left again. This time it was followed by
the right and both landed. Godfrey went
second later. Maher measured the dis
lance carefully, sent over his left as a
feeler. and as Godfrey dropped his left
to counter him, Maher shot over his
right. 1t struck the negro fully on the
jaw and the darkey fell prone to the
canvas. The ten seconds dragged slowly
on but before their end Godfrey failed
to rise. Maher, in the meantime, was
being embraced in turn by Sullivan, Nc
Auliffe and a half dozen lesser lights.
PrevioEs to the event of the evening
three four-round draws were fought be-
tween MaXey Haugh of Brooklyn, n. Y,
and Joe Rogers of Boston. both ban

Straights from the Detroiters, and the
eleventh consecutive victory for Barnes
pennant fighters. Mitchell, who twirled
for the MillerS two years ago, was put
in the box, but the visitors took so
kindly to his delivery that Fraser was
substituted in the second inning. He
did excellent work. and the visitors
were unable in the eight innings to
bunch their hits. Fraser had great
speed, phenomenal curves and shoots,
but through want of work he was a
tritie wild. His fielding and batting
were fine, and he promises to be
great favorite with the rooterS. John

he did on Tuesday lie was very wild,
and gave twelve men bases on balls.

Earl all lifted the ball over the fence,

COL. REFER AND BEER,
He Will Not Vote a Tax on This
Prime Necessity.

Prime Nece ssity.
Special to the Globe.
WAsHINGToN. May 24.-Some excel
lent citizens of Minnesota are uselessly
expanding vast amount of vital en-
ergy and some wealth i'll sending petit
tons to Col. Kiefer imploring him to
vote for an increase of 81 per barrel on
beer. Probably these people have neg
lected to learn the stock from which
Col. Kiefer derives his existence. Pos
sibly they have failed to inquire as to
the variety of milk furnished to Col.
Kiefer in his infancy. Evidently they
do not know that in all human probable
ity Col. Kiefer might be induced to vote
for a tariff On sunlight, OF an income
tax OIL atmospheric air. or to derive a
portion OF the nations revenue from
spring water, the rain which falls alike
on the just and the unjust, or even the
refreshing dew which silently distills
from the blue vault Of heaven.
Oh. no! The representative from the
Fourth district of Minnesota believes in
revenue. He wants the country for
which he fought and bled to pay all
honorable debts, and under some condi-
tons might vote to pay such as were not
strictly honorable; but he has choice
as to how the revenue shall be raised.
He resoIutely refuses to Increase the tax
OH joy. Bread and meat and clothes

necessary article in every weil.regu-

TOO MUCH DELAY.
Democrats Becoming FESTIVE
Over the Tariff Bill.

Democrats Becoming FESTIVE
Over the Tariff Bill.
WASHINGTON. May 24.-The man.
ayers of the tariff bill in the senate grew
somewhat FESTIVE today on account of
the delay which occurred over the tariff
bill during the past day or two. There
was consultation between Senators
Harris. Jones, Vest. Brice, CockereII
and others, at which it was decided to
notify the Republican side that the
progress made was not satisfactory. and
unless the bill moved along a little
more rapidly longer hours would
inevitably result. Several Republican
senators who are the beneficiaries OF
concessions in the compromise and
other amendments to the bill were in
formed that the men on the Democratic
concessions, and who have insisted
upon these being retained, would yield
to the pressure upon them, and con-
sent to having the Jones and COM
mlttee amendments laid on the
table. This made a number of
Republicans uneasy, and they have
replied that the Democrats should insist
upon long hours, and it would be shown
that Republicans would help make a
quorum. 1t was asserted that this Re-
publicans who were willing to have the
bill move along could not control those
who were inclined to have the debate
take the widest possible range. and
this could only be met with a length
ening OF the hours. Senator Harris was
asked tonight if the Democrats would
insist upon longer hours, and he said it
depended entirely upon the amount of
progress made: he was not ready to say
that such course had been determined
upon. The Democratic senators would
much prefer that the bill should 90
along without any crowding, and they
hesitate to insist upon extending the
sessions longer into the evening until
it Is apparent that the bill cannot be
advanced sufficiently by the present
hours devoted to it.
