Critic Didn't Want to Fight.

Philadelphia, March 16.--Young Crit
70 and Bill Mccarthy fought a four
round bout tonight at the Southwiclz
Athletic club. The fight was a very
tame affair, not more than a dozen
clean blows being struck in the four
rounds. Critic was fat as a mule and
did not appear to care whether he
fought or not, being content to allow
Mccarthy to do the leading. Mccarthy
tried to force the fighting but Critic
would slide out of his way in an easy
fashion. The bout grew tiresome be
fore the end of the third round that the
crowd Kissed the fighters.

| O'DONNELL A CLEVER BOXER.
! In this fight, while O'Donnell proved
himself clever sparrer, he did not dis
| play any extraordinary knowledge of
| ring tactics, and q times was exasper-
ateingly slow. He fought almost en-
tirely on the defensive, and did not
make a very favorable impression
O Donnell, however, claims to have
remedied the imperfections in his style
since ne became Corbett'S. Sparr4ng
partner His associations with the
champion are said to have been ex-
trenlely beneficial 10 steve. lie has,
it is said, mastered the art of moving
quickly, several hard knocks from Cor
bett on tender parts of his anatomy
having convinced him that 1T was pre-
ferable to avoid the blows by a quick
rush than to stand and get thumped.
BILLY" Delaney, who trained Corbett
for all his battles, is preparing ODon-
nell for his meeting with kilrain. De-
laney is very sanguine about the out
come of the battle and is very enthuS-
iastic over O'Donnell's ability TO fight
well. He says that ODonneil IS bigger,
stronger and clever than ever and VIII
surprise the knowing ones when ne
faces Kilrain. AT any rate ODonnell
will have many advantages over Kill
and stronger Reports from kilrain's
training quarters in Baltimore are very
encouraging. They say that Jake" Is
training faithfully for the mill and con-
fident of winning. The fight, which is
scheduled to last eight rounds, shoulo
certainly show the fallacy or the cor

goine. back of one man and the improve
ment of the other. If O'Donnen IS sue

chaiIange to fight any man in the WorIo,

Boston. March I6.-John L. Sullivan
will challenge the winner of the Kill

John has not proclaimed this publicly,
but made the declaration in recent
conversation with Captain Bill Daily
and Dan Murphy and arranged with
the former to care for his end of the
affair. As Captain Daily VIII not at
tend the fight Sullivan personally. at
the ringside, will announce his chaJ-
lenge. The promised return to the
arena of the eX-champion has set the
local sporting fraternity by the ears,
and many of his friends look askance
upon his proposition. In fact, while
perhaps they will not regard chai-
lenge to Kilrain, one who has SGlli-
vans interests at heart told an ASSo-
ciated Press reporter tonight that
determined effort would be made to
prevent the big felloww" from meet
ing O'Donnell, should the latter win
his contest with Kilrain.

KANSAS CITY, Dec. 5.-Mr. c. B. An
derson. chief pension inspector at the
Kansas City office. mourns the loss of
SIS diamond stud. The stone was
nipped from Mr.. Anderson's shirt front
at Ninth and Grand avenue. He had
been down town on an errand and at
Ninth and Walnut boarded an east
bound car to go home. The car
was somewhat crowded and as it rounded
the curve at Ninth and Grand avenue
two men VINO were with him on the car
jostled against him as though thrown off
their feet by the motion of the car
MIR. Anderson noticed at the time that
one man passed his hand across the front
of his clothing, and while the familiarity
was somewhat surprising, he did not
notice the loss of his jewelry until he
reached home. Then he recalled the
fact that the two men who jostled against
him left the car at Eighth street and
went north towards the Midland hotel.

Mr.. Bird was present, looking we'll
and composed for all the troubles he has
gone through lately. He sat behind his
attorney, ]. G. Waters, with whom he
conferred occasionally.
The labor commissioner is being tried
on three counts, each for taking money
from his clerks, making them pay it or
lose their positions. The principal charge
is that of exacting money from John
Speer, his chief clerk. This is supposed
to have been done last spring soon after
Mr.. Bird took the office.
The penalty for this offense is a fine
not to exceed $1,000, or Imprisonment
not to exceed one year for each count.
The state is represented by Assistant
Attorney General:A. A. GODDARD, County
Attorney Harry Stafford and Deputy
County Attorney Arthur McCabe.
Mr.. McCabe had examined the jury
for the state and Captain Waters was
through with half of them when the

resumed at l 80 with the further exam

CHICAGO, Dec. 5.-Wheat-There was
q firmer tone to the market this morning,
notwithstanding the usual grist of bear
news, and although there was no activity
to mention there was plain evidence that
the undercurrent was very strong and all
offerings were quietly absorbed by an
unseen power. Experienced and conserv-
alive traders say they can now be-
gin to see the fine Italian hand of
MIR. Armour land they are buying
moderately with the plain evidence that
this is the beginning of an Armour cam
paign. Receipts in the northwest are
dwindling gradually and from official
figures it is very plain that there is very
little spring wheat lest in farmers hands.
The crowd went home short last night
and when they wanted to buy it back
this morning found none for sale until
May touched 607a, when Partridge tried
to stop the advance by selling an
enormous lump. The power behind the
throne took it all quickly, however, aud
bid for more, forcing the price to 6114.
Cudahy WAS a heavy seller as was also
several commission houses. The absorb
tive power of the market is something
remarkable. There was also a splendid
milling demand to St. Louis and Kansas
City. A SLrOng feature Oh Inc maEkob Is
the fact that despite the enormous flour
output, with the mills in the northwest
running night and day, yet the stocks of
-four at primary points show big rednc-
ton for the month. Billy Linn is favora>
bic towards the wheat deal. Last Liver
