 A BREATHING SPACE.
Prices in the Iron Trade Nearly Stationary A Condition Not DispIeasing to the
 Conservative

Cleveland, O., July 1S.-The Iron Trade Review says today: Buyers have not followed the market in the latest ad- vances with the avidity shown in pre- vious weeks. In consequence there has been a week of nearly stationary prices. No indications of weakness are found anywhere, nor could there be with nearly every mill and furnace sold for two months ahead, and many for much longer time. It may be taken as proof of the absence of speculative tranSac- tions that a slight lull should come after an active period of buying, in which many of the quotations made would have been prohibitive had the material been absolutely needed. While an abate- ment of feVerish conditions Is just what the conservative forces in the iron trade had hoped for, there is little disposition to believe that the end of the advance is at hand. The market has made such strong progress toward higher ground at a time usually marked by uncertainty and slacknesS that 1t is argued the con firmation soon to be given to encouraging crop reports by actual movement will strongly reinforce a situation already firm.
 After making jump of 75 cents in the prices of the week, from $13 to $13.75 in the valley, with sales of upwards of 50, GOO, Bessemer pig has taken a more mod crate pace. Round sales have been made at $1365 in the valley, and furnaces now have their figures at $14. Consumption is plainly in excess of current production. The scarcity of steel is still further em- phasized. The enormous output of finish ed material from Pittsburg mills has drawn upon other districts for steel, and no billets are going out of Pittsbure. Sales are reported at S21.50 and $21.75, Pittsburg, and small lots at $22, Cleve- land.
 The situation in foundry iron, northern and southern, is unchanged. Buying is comparatively light for the time being, but consumption by foundries is at an in oraa rate

 BLACK FLAGS ROUTED.

Shells From the Heavy Guns of the Japa-
 nese Too Much for the Pirates
 London, July 1S.-A dispatch to the Dis patch from Hong Kong says that reports of serious fighting between the Japanese and Black Flags in Formosa have been received from Annoy. The fighting took place sixty miles south of Taipeh. The Black Flags were in almost overwhelm- ing numbers, and only the shells from the heavy guns of the Japanese saved the latter from dire disaster. As it was the Japanese were compelled to retreat to the northwest. The Black Flags, according to report. are now advancing upon Teck- ham, fifty miles west of Tokoham. where renewed fighting is imminent.

That "Fight'' Again.

An account was sent to the Age-Herald on Monday night last of prize fight which took place over in the rooms Of the Montgomery Athletic club for a purse of $200 It was stated in the spe- cal that Glass was very severely pun ished by his opponent. Mike Callahan, who is an attachee of the club and acts as an instructor and rubber Glass is regarded as a professional pugilist.
 Since the mill some members of the newly organized club have seen fit to take issue on the correctness of the re- port sent out. In defense of the report it may be said it was prize fight in the general acceptation of that term. despite the efforts of those who doubt 1t and attempt to make 1t appear a sci entific boxing contest A prize fight is a contest between two men for money Admission was charged on this occaSion Fifty per cent of the receipts went to the club. The first arrangement between the contestants was this: The winner of the "mill'' was to get 35 per cent and the loser 15 per cent of the receipts. Just be- fore the bout Glass had it changed, So that the winner was to receive 50 per cent and the loser to get nothing. Five ounce gloves were used
 The two fighters came together and fought ten rounds. Callahan got the best of the first round. Glass had the best of the fight in the next six rounds and it looked as if he would whip Calla- han. However, in the next three rounds, which were viciously fought, Callahan knocked Glass down several times and otherwise punished him severely, as the latter's condition plainly showed. His left eye was swollen almost as large as an ordinary fist. In fact it was closed. The other one fared but little better. Besides, his face was otherwise bruised, as well as his body. Callahan's nose was slightly hurt. He thought it had been broken by jab kith Glass right.
 After the mill" Glass was given $10, so the reporter learned. A collection was also taken up for him. .I It seems the $200 purse was a myth. However, the two pugilists fought ten rounds for money admission being charged. The principle was the same as that of any other mill. the only distinction being in the amount of money fought for. The morning news paper had no representative present.

List of Crown lands not under lease,
aggregating near $1,000 acres, of which
20, 900 might be classed as agricultural,
was presented by Speaker Naone.
Further consideration of Land bill
in Committee of the Whole was re-
sumed, with Rep. Haia in the chair.
There was a general discussion over
Section 81 regarding reservation strip
on each side of volcano road.
Rep. Bond thought $50 feet was
none too much, and could not see why
it was desired to reduce it.
Rep. RycrOft expressed the opinion
that 80 feet on each side of the road
was sufficient to act as a wind break
and enable tourists to view its natural
beauty as well. The member spoke
in favor of an amendment allowing
settlers in Olaa to purchase 200 acres
instead of 100 as in the printed draft.
Replying to a question of Rep.
Richards, the Attorney General ex-
planned that the reserved strip was for
the purpose of natural scenery along
the volcano road.
After some further debate on the
matter the House took a recess until 2
p. m.

Consideration of referred sections Of
the Land bill 70 special committee was
