EVERHARDT-aBHOIT FIGHT.
Another Hot Contest at New Orleans Fought
10 a Draw.

New ORLEANS, Sept. 25.-The principal
fight, tonight, at the Olympic Club carnival
was between Stanton Abbott, champion
lightweight of England, and Jack Ever
hardt, the American who defeated Abbott,
several weeks ago, for S2500 purse.
Young Critic and Mickey Dunn gave a six
round preliminary bout Of scientific box
ing. Griffin scored on Dunn whenever he
wanted to.
TIE first five rounds were in favor of
Everhardt, who seemingly pounded Abbott
NJ will Abbott was tired before the end of
the fourth, and looked like loser. Ever
hardt got first blood in the fifth. and had
everything his own wsy in the sixth,
seventh, eighth, ninth and 10Th rounds.
Abbott stood the punishment remarkably
well. Abbott made great brace in the
18Th, l4h and 10Th and did more fighting
than in the early part Of the contest. Ever
hardt was the aggressor and was doing
most of the fghting and he had slightly the
best of it in the l5lh. The 18th was the
fiercest and best of the fight. Both men
fought desperately and honors were even.

DEPENDS ON WHITNEY.
New York Democrats United on Him
for Governor.
Hill Seems 10 Be Second Choice, il Whitney
Refuses TO Run.

NEw YORK, Sept. ga special dispatch
from Saratoga says: j. Sergeant Cram,
president of the New York deck board, left
for New York, this sfternoon, 10 meet
w. c. Whitney on his arrival from Europe.
He is the authorized representative of Tam
many Hall, and will inform MIR. Whitney
of the situation, and tell him that he can
have the nomination for Governor if he
will take it.
The situation now depends on the answer
of Mr. Whitney. The opinion is expressed
by the leaders that if Mr.. Whitney should
refuse, Senator Hill will be made the
nominee of the convention. It is hardly
likely that Mayor Gilroy and others would
deputize Mr.. Cram on so important mis-
sion without Senator Hills approval.
Mayor Gllroy, W. Bourke Cochran and
Corporation Counsel Clark had their heads
close together, this afternoon, and they
concluded, after csnvsssing the situation,
that Mr.. Whitney was the most available
candidate. Lieut.-Gov. Sheehan WAS con-
suited by them and was of the same opin-
ion. Judging from the feeling of the dele
gates, Mr.. Whitney can carry the conyen-
uon by acclamation.
