JIMMY Is THE BOY
THE MAN WHO STRUCK BILLY
PATTERSON.
In a Ring Pitched In the snow the Prin-
eIpsls Gave n Hot Exhibition
Under D!mcultIes.

West Superior wis. March Jim
my Murphy OF Chicago. knocked out
Billy Patterson of San Francisco I'm the
sixth round this evening. The fight
was a vicious one from the start.
Tommy Madden of this city acted as
referee. Both men forced the fighting.
and 1t was anybody's fight up TO the
fourth round. Murphy had been fore
ing the contest and had landed a num-
ber of wicked face blows. Patterson's
ability TO take punishment was remark
able.
In the fourth round he was knocked
down. but arose and swung on Muir
phys neck with a blow which dazed
the Chicago man. In the fifth round
Patterson tried the pivot blow and
landed fairly on Murphy's neck. Muir
ply swung his left and landed fairly on
the jaw, following IL up with a right
handler on the neck. Patterson went
down like log and just saved himself
from being counted out. In the sixth
round Murphy had Patterson at his
mercy and pounded him at will. finally
objecting to the punishment he was in
flicting. Patterson insisted on being
knocked clear out OF the ring. but the
referee awarded the fight TO Murphy.
The men fought under difficulties.
The determined action of the sheriff,
under orders from the governor TO stop
the fight. caused a change in the plans
and they had to elude pursuit. The
fighting party left this city at o'clock.
The sheriff's special train followed. and
the state line for 10 miles was patrolled.
The main line Of the ST. Paul & Duluth
was followed TO the station OF Howell.
IS miles distant. in Minnesota. where
there was no interference. The ring
was pitched on the ground which the
snow had been shoveled from.

BOLTS OF RED TAPE
How TO Get the Cuban Declaration Be-
fore the House.
MAY SUSPEND THE RULES
The Sentiment Is In Favor OF No
DeIay-Joint. Instead OF Concur
rent. Resolution 10 Probable
The Senate Programme.

Washington, March 1.-The conspic-
uous feature OF the house proceedings
this week will be in connection with the
Cuban resolutions which the committee
on foreign affairs reported and which
are now on the calendar. After the OBJ
lection raised by Mr.. Boutells on last
Thursday 1t became almost certain that
unanimous consent could not be secur-
ed for the consideration OF the resolu-
tions and. as the senate resolutions
were referred on Friday to the foreign
AFFAIRS committee. II is certain that un-
usual methods viii be required to get
the subject before the house Two
methods are open. Under the rules. the
first and second Mondays of each
month are suspension days. To-mor-
row. therefore. Is one of the days when
the speaker could recognize Hit 10
move the passage OF the resolutions un-
der suspension of the rules. Such a
motion would require a two-thirds ma
jority, but II Is not believed a dozen
votes would be recorded in opposition
Only 30 minutes debate on a side would
be allowed II such a motion were made
The other way would be for the COM
mittee on rules TO bring in a special or
der. The general impression Is that the
former method will be followed. The
fact that the senate resolutions We're
referred to the committee indicates that
the majority prefer the house to the
senate resolutions; but the question will
come before the house unless. IL by n
special order. would cut off amendment.
the motion probably viii be made to
substitute the senate resolutions. The
latter action would have the advantage
of ending the matter. Delay would be
a natural incident 10 the passage OF
different set OF resolutions by each
house. and the temper OF members Is
enthusiastically in favor OF action.
There has been some talk OF making
the resolutions joint. instead OF con-
current In order that the president
may be forced to approve or reject
them, but there Is no probability that
this change viii be made.
The remainder OF the week will be oc-
cupid with appropriation bills.

on Cuba. IL says: 1T is an invidious
task to attempt to define the rights and
