j. A. Crawford, president OF the United
Mine Workers of Illinois, next addressed
the assemblage. He said the miners were
not striking, but that they simply sus-
pended work until such a time when the
big operators were willing to go into a con-
ference with the miners aud adjust the
scale of prices. He said the suspension
was as much to the interest of the oper-
ators as it was to the miners. He urged
march to The front and be men, as did Slso
Vice President James w. Murray.
After the Speaking q motion was carried
requesting all the miners not residents
here to Immediately depart from the city
and allow the Toluca men to settle among
themselves about joining the movement.
Lieutenant Governor Gill teiegraphed
for special train of Thirty fiat cars TO take
the miners to their respective homes as
soon AS the above decision had been
reached, and the men were in a very con-
genial mood when they learned that they
were not to march home. The people OF
this city felt much relieved after the de-
parture of the men, and the excitement
died down.
The Toluca miners at once called meet
ing to decide upon the question OF return
ing to work. Some of the colored men on
the streets said they were willing to take
out their tools if the whites were. Mr..
Devlin said If his men quit he would i'm
port negroes from Florida to work In the
mines. II the miners hero do not return
to work and any such attempt is made,
trouble is sure to follow.

Twin City Athletic club. had provided
], 700 seats about the elevated stage on
which was pitched the eighteen foot ring
in which Dan Creedon of Australia and
Dick More of ST. Paul were to settle the
middIe-weight supremacy. after having
fought a ten round draw at Boston, but
there were plenty of vacant seats when the
fight was called.
Creedon had been the favorite in the
betting and odds of five to two went beg
ging in spite OF Moore being practically at
home. Creedou weighed in at 100 pounds
and looked in good condition Moore
weighed l57 and looked fat and trifis
anxious.
The time keepers were Jim Manning of
St. Paul, for Moore; Billy Halpin for Cree
don, aud w. j. Edwards for the club
Creedon had Shadow Maber, Tom Tracey,
his foster brother, and Professor Frank
Lewis OF the Columbia Athletic club be-
hind him, while Bobby Dobbs of Denver,
Billy Needham and d. H. Benton did the
like duty for Moore. Sandy Griswold was
referee.
From the start the men came together
hard, and during the twenty-five minutes
which Moore was allowed to fight, the
pace was continuous. The fight was a
good one, although it was apparent from
the outset that Creedon was too strong for
the St Paul boy. Moore landed plenty of
good ones, but Creedon was not worried.
Moore secured first bload from the cheek
in the third round. Creedon played for
tae stomach. Moore was very tired after
the fifth round, and at the end of the sixth
his right eye was CLOSED.
AS the seventh opened it WAS plain that
Creedon was fiddling for knock out
blow. Moore was very nervous and tried
to land his right but failed
In he eighth Creedon pushed Moore all
over the ring, jabbing him at will, aud at
the close, found the spot and Moore fell to
his side with short arm right. Time
saved him.
The ninth was Moore's Waterloo Moore
came up strong and rushed Dan, who
promptly felled him again with a short
arm right. He was up, and Dan tried it
again. Moore half dueked and Dan gave
a short upper cut with the left on the
poin. of the jaw. Moore went down on
his side and. as the fatal ten was counted,
rolled over on his back and sprea1 out his
hands. defeated
Before the fight G. H. Benton offered to
find backing for Bobby Dobbs OF Denver,
