He is out of condition because he is

I'm no more Of a cur than you are,
Fitzsimmons," said Connolly, rising
from his seat "You are a bloody cur,
and I'll bet $1,000 that Julian can lick
you in one round"
you're no good. It's all off," shouted
.Fitzsimmons, turning to the crowd.
"These fellows are not on the level,
and / will have nothing to do with
them. I won't fight unless 1 get the
forfeit that belongs to me. It's all
off, I tell you" and wild with rage,
Fitzsimmons broke from the room and
went into the street.
After a moment Connolly wanted
to know if Julian would fight under
any circumstances. Julian said it was
q matter he would discuss after the
question of forfeit had been settled.
He was justly entitled to the forfeit,
but, that there might be no question
of his sincerity, he would leave the
matter to any ten or five men Con-
molly himself might name. Connolly
Balu. Let oIudTC name them.
Julian acquiesced. Stuart named
George Siler, Louis Houseman, of Chi
cago: William w. Naughton, of San
Francisco; Tom O'Rourke New York
and Hugh Fitzgerald, Houston, Tex.
Some one suggested that Dan Stuart
act as chairman of the committee, and
Julian again agreed. He lighted a
cigarette and tilted back in his chair
as the committee repaired to the rear
eli
mons, who soon crowded his way in.
He was still angry and profane.
ST won't fight he said. '"They are
all lot of Welshors. I've been fooled
and fiddled for all I'll stand. Then

door with a bang, AS he got out

molly: you're not on the level. Your
bloomin' big stiff is afraid to fight
I'll fight anybody, that other big duff
fer, Jim Corbett, or any one, bare
knuckles or gloves. But this thing is
off. It's not square,"
AS Fitzsimmons disappeared the
committee came in. Houseman an
nounced the decision. 1t was that the
articles of December were void last
Friday. Under the circumstances and
the understanding at that time, the
forfeit money need not be paid

Connolly said he would Connolly
said he would turn the 81, 600 in the
hands Of the stakeholder over to Stu
art and put up another $1,000 this aft
ernoon, guaranteeing their appearance

It is by no means certain that Ma
her would be able to fight on Friday,

ring no matter what the condition Of
his eyes may be. They are still badly

Ell PASO, Tex, Feb. 1.-THE fight

the space of thirty minutes this aft
ernoon. 1t is now definitely set for
Friday, and Buck Connolly has agreed
to post for Maher $1,000 additional for
felt, if his man is not in the ring to
fight on that day. Julian made every
possible concession, and finally turned
the Whole matter over to a committee
of five, all of whom were to be named
by Connolly. If this committee decided
that he was not entitled to the forfeit,
he would agree to wait until Friday,
and have the fight then. The commit
tee decided against him, and Julian
gave in accordingly. The conference
was originally set for 10 o'clock. Stuart
was the only one present at that time.
After waiting few minutes he went
away and did not show up again until
L o'clock. Meantime Julian and Con-
molly camwe, but made no Roadway in

Stuart returned, the conference opened.
Julian and Fitzsimmons demanded the

further negotiations would be consid-

The Chicago Parade.

In answer to the numerous in
q%uiries in regard to the comparative
size Of the gold and silver process
sion in Chicago, at the recent an
niversary celebration of the Chicago
fire, the Penny Press presents the
following review by the Chicago
Dispatch:
"The actual size of the two pa
rades, as ascertained by reporters

THE night parade of free silver
clubs was the grandest feature of
Chicago day. It was 10y all odds
the most attractive demonstration.
There were between 60, 900 and TO-,
600 voters in line, and fully 100, 600
] people turned out along the line of
march to applaud those who were
in line for honest money, The en-
thusiasm of the silver parade, both
in the ranks and among the specta.
tors, was five times greater than
was that of the dishonest money
turnout. From start to the end
the 60, 600 marchers and 100, 900 on
lockers kept up a steady shout for

starts out as follows:
'If Mr.. Bryan should be elected
there will be an IMMEDIATE AND

An enthusiastic silver rally was
held at Rockerville Monday. Hon.
S. E. Young was the principal
speaker of the evening and for an
hour and half poured hot shot into
the ranks of the gold element and
they WINGED under his fire. After
Mr.. Young had finished a man
named Carter, a deciple of the
Cleveland Carlisle Mckinley finan-
cial policy, arose and attempted to
offset the effect of Mr., Yourg's re-
marks. According to the report as

ment. Mr.. Young's talk was highly

Cannot Garry Chicago.

CHICAGO, Oct. 20:-It is difficult
to see how the Republicans can cast
more 80, 900 votes out Of ! total Of.
400, 600 which will be registered in
Cook county. Two years ago, at the
time Of the Republican Landslide, when
thousands of Democrats were dis
gusted with the Cleveland admins
tration, Henry Wulff, candidate for
state treasurer, received 152, 900
votes. OF these less that Is, 600
were cast by Disguised Democrats,
and probably 10000 were cast by
Republicans now members of the
Republican Free Silver clubs. If
Mr.. Mckinley makes up this deficit
from new voters or from boiling
Democrats, he will have done reas-
onably we'll. Two years ago the
combined Democratic and populist
vote was 1872, 600. No less than 30
600 Democrats refuse to vote, to
say nothing Of the $4,000 who pro-
badly voted the Republican ticket,
To this shonld be added the army of
Free Silver Republicans and thou
sands of voters who will go to the
ballot booths for the first time.
The most conservative Democratic
estimate places Mr.. Bryan 8 majority
in Chicago at $1,000 but many firmly
believe that Is, 900 is nearer the
truth.

CONTROL.

The populist party, while es-
pousing the cause of silver, has
yet claimed that the demonetiza-
ton was but one Of the many acts
of Legislation from which the
country is suffering. It was the
only issue upon which a fight
could be forced and right royalty
and squarely + the forces az
rayed. The contest must be pro-
duetiye Of much good III showing
other evils that but for this con-
test would never have been recog-
nized by the average voter.
At least four years ago popu.
lism said, "the controllers Of gold
are gradually forcing the nation tc
a gold basis" The republican
party denied the charge and de.
clared for bi-metulism and pointed
to the Sherman law. and fou,
years later declared for the GOLD
standard. Now they point to the
silver in circulation, but Carlisle
more lndiscrat than the rest. de.
clares that should he find it ex.
pedient he will redeem silver dol
lars with gold. Thus are we Ell
tirely at the mercy Of that class 0,
nation which can control the most
gold. Populism %aid the grea
combinations Of capital must b,
controlled, for by them the peopl,
are unduly taxed and the lahore
is becoming a slave. Today tn

ing thrown into politics and tn

A number of Chicago Record vot-
ing cards have been received in the
city during the past two or three
days. Let silvermen follow orders
from headquarters and not take
part in the vote. Throw the card
in the waste basket where it be-
longs.
Judge Bangs, Of Rapid City and
S. E. Young, Of Ohio addressed the
people of Rapid City at Library hall
on Saturday night. Both speeches
were good and we'll received by the
enthusiastic hearers who filled the
hall.
The Journal says that because tho
%silverites see that the vote in the
Chicago Record contest is going
against them, orders have been sent
out from silver headquarters for all
silver men to refrain from voting.
The Journal should read it's ex-
changes. If it did it would find
that these orders were sent out
when this Chicago Record fake was
proposed, and that the instructions
are being obeyed by silver mon
throughout the country. So much
for the consolation board
Pioneer: Capt. Thos. Carter of
the Elkhorn, has received the skin
Of a mammoth rattlesnake from his
son, Albert B. Carter Of Georgiana,
Fla, and it is on exhibition in John
Baggaley's Office. 1t is of the dia
mond back species and is probably
larger than any that has ever
grown in the Black Hills, measur-
ing six feet and nine inches long
from the tip of the tail to where the
head has been cut off. There are
but five rattles on the tail, and it is
believed that part OF them have
been lost in some manner.
Deadwood independents: A war
rant was sworn out in Justice Ear
ley's court this morning for the ar
rest of County Treasurer H. T..
Cooper, charging him with assault
and battery on the person of Geo.
Wilson's little boy. During the
parade last evening Mr.. Wilson'S
boy in company with several other
boys was following the republican
soup cart and making a little op-
position noise. This greatly en-
ragged Cooper and he grabbed the
boy and gave him a good choking
and put him in the "soup Cart
where he was further misused.
Cooper claims that the boy was
throwing stones at the cart but this
the boy denies.
