Importance of the match was the bear
ing 1t has to a prosperity meeting be.
tween FitZsimmOnS and Col bett. FitZ-
simmons has been most %persevering in
his efforts to secure a match with
Champion Heavyweight Corbett. and
from time to time has been put off with
the reminder that he was not in his
class. Corbett first named Choynski as
the maj Lanky Bot had to whip before
be could talk of a match. Fitzsimmons
took on the match. and then he was told
by the champion that he would have to
go with Creedon to place himself in a
position 10 talk fight.
Comparatively little was known of
Creedon by the general public, although
the visitors from St. Louis were enthuS-
iastic in their praises of the man. De-
spite that fact, however, Fitz remained
a prohibiIive %favOrite, the pool room
odds being hunted at from 8 to 10 and |
to 3, while as good as 5 to 2 could be had
against Creedon.
When the men entered the ring for
the great contest FitZslmmons looked.
indeed, formidable. He was finely
drawn, and but for traces of prickly
heal his skin was as white as a baby's.
His enormous shoulders and chest, when
compared with his narrow waist and
hips, were particularly marked. His
long, light arms and legs were covered
With SiuuOus muscles that gave every
Indication of terrible force and speed.
His every movement in the ring was
like that of a panther watching his prey
and ready to spring upon it.
CreedOn, as he appeared, presented a
stockier look. and all the lines of his
symmetrical body indicated strength
and excellent condition.
FiiZaimmons had something to the
good i'll height and reaci,. but as he
stood with his legs further apart than
Creedon, it was not so marked as it
might have BEEN. There were probably
5000 Spectators
present. The a%mphitheater was brill.
iantly lighted. The props of the
stakeless enclosure were drawn taut,
and presented a bright appearance with
their red covering. about which was

Referee Duffy announced Fitzsim-
mons challenge to Champion Corbett.
The applause that followed was i'm
mtnSe. .
The work of Fitzsimmons in the Sec
ond round was the most marvellous ever
seen in this section of the country. The
rlght-lalUcIs which CreedOn received
on the head in one, two, three order
amazed h spectators and dazed the
recipient. but they were nothing from

pared with the tlnee heavy let's deliv-

Crredon's nose. which tioOred the latest
aspirant for middle weight hO!.UrS, and
caused Creedon To fall an easy prey to
FitZslmmOnS. The main lighting WAS
done in the center of the ring, the river
sand of which was plOwed up more by
the foot work of the two men in the
actual lighting time, which vas four
minutes and foIty seconds, than it
ever was before. even i'll all night
battles. Creedun vas carried to his
corner gasping hard for breath and
showing traces of blood trucking from
his nose. He was comparatively unhurt
during the nrst round, and went 10 his
corner smiling happily and chatting
with his attendants. The inference
then is that he was beaten in n minute
and forty seconds. the time of the sec.
ond round. His seconds and hackers
were startled beyond measure, and even
those who desired FitZSimmonS' defeat,
and there were many, were Overawrd

Round One = Both men felt each

He was shert. however. but he forced
the fighting and landed a right on the
ear. and Creedon scored q hard BODY
blow. A moment later Creedon caught
a left on the chin, aud one, two. thee
on the head. The men had to be sep

beautifully from a light on the head.

left swing for the head, but he landed
two rights on the body. Fitzsimmops
scored two heavy rights and knocked
CreedOn down with a heavy right handler

TO be forced from a clinch. Creedon
received two heavy rights on the Jaw

ARION AND NELSON
In Three Straight Heats and
in Very Fast
Time.
WENT LIKE A WHIRLWIND.
Not a Break From Start to
Finish in Any Of thu
Contests.

MYSTIC PARK, .Medford, Mass, Sept.
2C.-The biggest crowd that ever assem-
bled on a track in New England gath
ereu at Mystic Park this afternoon to
witness the greatest stallion race ever
contested in the East. The race was
between Directum, Arion and Nelson.
When The stations were given the word
the second time, they came down the
track with Nelson almost half
a length behind the others.
Directum had the pole with Arion
second and the Maine horse on the out
side. The quarter pole was reached in
80 seconds. with Directum a neck
ahead of AIion and Nelson half a length
behind. The half was made in 1:06
and the th%ree-quarters in 1:3S, with the
same positions. Not once did the
horses skip or balk. and they turned
into the stretch going as steadily as
clockwork. The black finished half a
length anead of Arion, with Nelson
tagging a length behind. Time, 2:l2.
The trio started in the second heat
with Nelson slightly i'll the lead. At the
quarter-pOle he still led Directum, with
Ari0n almost a length in the rear. AT
the half The Maine trotter had increased
his lead 10 a length. and the GROVE
almost went wild with enthusiasm.
Then Directum spurted and at the third
quarter was a length in the lead with
Arion and Nelson neck and neck. In
the finish Nelson dropped behind and
finished three lengths in the rear of
Directum, who led AriOn by a length.
Time by quarters, 3l15, 1:03s4, 1:37.2:10.
This MAS the best tim of the day. and
the fastest mile ever trotted over the
Mystic park track in a race. The horses
then got off again. Nelson was half a
length behind. At the quarter Directum
was a neck ahead of Arion. but a few
seconds latter created a stir by creeping
past him. A little past the half, how
ever, Directum again drew to the front,
and at the three-quarters pole he led
Arion by a length aud he finished two
lengths ahead, with Nelson over three
lengths from the wire. Time, 2:11L.

HERE Is A DiSSENTER.
Lawyer Locke, of Buffalo, Has a
Roast for Hill.

WASHINGTON, Sept. &c. Prank Locke,
one OF the most prominent lawyers and
Democrats of Buffalo. a great friend OF
President Cleveland and one of the
foremost men at the Syracuse conven-
ton. says:
I'm what | say let it be understood
that l speak only for myself. | will
neither work MOI vote for Senator Hill
for governor. My indictment against
him has two cunts.
First. l maintain that from March
4, 1898, he has done everything he could
ia harass. annoy and obstruct the Dem
ocratic administration here.
Second. l regard him as primarily
responsible for the offense in the state
of New York for which Judge Maynard
was tried and convicted last year..
1.-The only real defense Judge MAY.
nard had was that he was a g%ood-natured
fellow and was compelled to do what he
did by the OverpOwering influence Of
Senator Hill. l will vote for no man
connected with that crime. l do not see
how Judge Gaynor can accept after the
treatment of the contested delegation
from Kings county. Mr.. Lockwood's
nomination for lieutenant governor |
regard as an admirable one. l shall
only regret 1t if he is associated on the
ticket with Senator Hill"
Representative Tarsney (Dem., Mo-:
MIR. Hills nomination is an excep-
tionally strong one. MI. Hill is a man
of rare political strength. He would
not take a nomination If he were to be
sacrificed. His willingness to accept
the leadership of the New York De-
mocracy this year Is. in my opinion, the
most convincing proof yet advanced
that the Democrats will carry the state.
His election will make him a big factor
in the next presidential fight"
Senator Stewart Pop, New: "If
Senator Hill stand Gu and indorses the
financial plank of the platform. the
banks must elect him. Of course, the
question of Mr.. Cleveland's attitude
toward MIR. Hill will be an important
one. Mr.. Cleveland has been suffering
from malaria this summer. l belle We.
The only specific for malaria, the dis
clples Of physic tell us, is bitters. If
Mr.. Cleveland swallows the New York
nomination, the pill ought to be bitter
enough to cure the most chronic case Of

sLASHING RATES EAST.
Bids for Trans o%ortation of Troops
Will Cause a Row.

Will Cause a Row.
CHICAGO, Sept. 26.-There Is certain
to be much trouble in the Western
Passenger association over the rates
made by several of the lines for the
transportation of troops from Fort
Leavenworth to Atlanta. Ga, and to
Governors Island, New York. When
the bids were opened this morning at
the headquarters OF the depart ment of
the Missouri. it was found that on the
lot for Governors Island, the Rock
Island, Chicago Great Western, Atchi-
son and Burlington had made bids.
Every bid cut the agreed assoc iation
tariff at least one-third. The Blu Ring.
ton. which was a trifle under its com
petitors, secured the business. On the
Atlanta detachment the Burlington was
again successful. because although not
the lowest in figures. it allowed the
free transportation of ninety-two pounds
excess baggage per man. The Atchi-
son, Missouri Pacific and Burlington
were after this business, and not a sim
gle bid was v 40 per cent of the
agreed association tariff. This whole
sale slaughter of rates is bound to make
no end of a row in the Western Passen-
ger association.
