The Citizens Committee, which was in
session up TO late hour tonight. was in
cllned TO act mysteriously. Nobody
would say under whose auspices the work
of the ring would be commenced to-mor-
row or state eventually what new plans
were under consideration.
Under the direction Of the Supreme
Court prize-hghting is only a misde-
meanor, punishable by a fine under
hearing of Justice Of peace. The men
are, therefore, in no danger Of imprison-
ment. Under the same decision the fight
would not be an emergency warranting
the Governor in calling out the militia,
even were there militia TO call out or
State funds to provide for transportation
and commiSsary. Hence, there is only
the last resort or Il special session of the
Legislature. II would take at least three
days to organize this body. To say,
therefore, that a session were called for
Tuesday, it would be Thursday, or the
day alter the fight. before the two houses
were organized and ready for business.
1t Is held by the Citizens Committee that
with a forty-eigh ht-hour notice to the

that when the National Republican Com

galleries of the Auditorium the muni-
cipal officers of Chicago swung their fists
In our faces and said they would clear us
out OF the Auditorium altogether. This
was fine treatment for a city that had
promised to treat us fairly"
The National Republicans are not the
only complainants against Chicago. San
Francisco is still making a sturdy fight
for the convention. and many of the
committeeman are pledged to vote for the
Golden Gate city at the meeting of the
committee in Washington on Decem Der

Ierriil Makes a Statement ia Regard
TO the Conditions.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-In cable
gram from Minister Terrill, dated at Con-
stantinopIe to-day, and addressed to
Senator Mills and Congressman Sayers,
Mr.. Terrill makes the following state
ment:
The New y ork World publishes the
charge that | have neglected missionary
interests. Every American missionary
IN this city will state that 10 be false. \ OF
an American missionary in Asia Minor
has been injured during this terrible
strive, though more numerous than those
OF all Europe. To protect them against q
twO-told danger. 1 have remained for
months with leave OF absence granted.
The attack on my personal relations with
the Sultan deserves only contempt. They
have not endangered the security OF the
missionaries. Such attacks are inspired
by secret societies OF Armenians, whose
methods of assassination the Rev. DR..
HamliD exposed in the Independent of
December, 1898.
II have for months kept a Turkish
guard to protect American professors III
missionary college against threatened
assassination by eTnissaries of secret So
cleties. l have never failed to rescue
from prison every Armenian when ar
rested who bore an American passport.
Among them are known revolutionists.
TO expose the assassins Of reputation has
become duty. For the misguided Ar
menian l have only pity, but the Ameri-
can journal that publishes a SANDER to
impair the influence oil its couutry's
Minister at a distant court will be re-
buked by American patriotism, regard
less of party. Such conduct is not Amer
lean, but perhaps natural in one who has
grown insoent with temporary pros
perity obtained by the methods of his
paper 4. W. TERRILL."

doom TO q reporter of the st. Louis Repub-
Tic, that the nervous tension OF specta-
tors by ring side entirely transforms
men. | never had this so aptIy illustrated
as at the Godfrey KilraIn fight in San
Francisco in the early eighties. l trained
kilrain for that fight. We trained at the
Seal Rock House, SaE Francisco Bay. 1t
was one of the bIoOdiest contests l ever
beheld. seconded kilrain in the ring,
and close to the ropes stood a number of
prominent, weIl-dressed gentlemen. Kill
rains punishment of Godfrey was terrific.
Just before the finish, when Godfrey's
face resemDled a piece of raw meat, and
you could scarcely tell the front of his
head from the back. so covered with gore
was he, 1 kept hearing behind me voice:
Kill the - nigger! Xiii him Kill
him, Jakep Finally kiirain gave him
the finishing blow, and the poor devil
dropped under the ropes right at the feet
of these gentlemen. He was quivering,
inssnsible mass. 1t was sight to elicit
the pity of anyone with any instincts of
humanity In him whatever. Do you
know l saw one of these silk hat chaps
lift his foot over poor Godfrey's head as
if ne were going to bring his heel down
on his bloody face? The expression on
the mans face was the most hendish I
ever saw. L jumped over the rope and
dragged Godfrey away, exclaiIning:
'Stopi What do you mean? Let that
man alone and stop your heIlish yellingr
The man fell back and we bore Godfrey
away. But l couldn't get that mans
look out of my mind. \ few nights
sfterward | was in the lobby OF the Palace
Hotel with Kilrain when someone
brought up fine looking old gentleman
attired in broadcloth with silk hat. We
were introduced. He was President of
one ofthe largest banks in San Francisco.

copied his hand and said, I've seen you

fight the other night y Ou are the man.

was and told me was more ashamed OF
his conduct than he knew how to eX-
press, but that he really wanted that

terminated him. L looked at him with
contempt and could not help remarking,
Y on are the sort OF man, sir, that de-
grades pugilism. Stay away from prize

AUGUSTA Ca, Oct. 25.-One of the
largest fires in the history of Augusta in
respect to extent OF injury visited this
city this evening. 1t started in the
stables of The lumber and planning mills
OF Jesse Thomson d Co., and consumed
this plant in a few minutes. 1t was situ-
ated on the outskirts Of the city, and on ono
side was a stretch OF small frame houses.
y very high wind was blowing III the
direction OF these houses, and great burn
ing embers were carried high in tho air,
setting fire to houses two and three
blocks away, while those much nearer
temporarily escaped destruction. They
were doomed, however. for the wind was
so fierce and the lumber was so inflam-
mable that it was a. no time under con-
troll of the lire department. and the fire
was not extinguished until it had spent
itself. The embers OF forty-four houses
are all that remains. Several hundred
people are homeless. The total value Of
the property destroyed is $4,000 on
which the insurance is only about 50, 900
or $4,000.

TIE CUBAN REVOLT.

Reports Which show Success to the
Government Forces.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 25.-Senor Du-
puy de LONE to-day received the follow
ing cablegram from Sancti Spiritus, $50
miles from Havana:
marshal Martinez Campos has arrived
after magnificent march at the head OF
q small column from Ciego de Avila,
through the center and stronghold Of the
insurgent district. Being unable to cross
the liver Zaza, which was overhowed he
was obliged to camp for two days. sleep
ing on the ground like a common soldier.
The rebels fired at the column in the
mountains, but took to flight at first shot
of the troops. The fact of the Comman-
der-in- Chief being able to go with such a
small column through the district has
given great hopes of the success of the
operations. Everything Is ready for the
advance as soon az the weather is COM
pletely settled"
Senor Depuy de LONE attaches great
importance 10 this news, as indicating in-
activity on the part OF the rebels totally at
variance with the reports emanating from
American sources.
