Then Mr.. Addicks went into u general
discussion Of the situation. lie was hope
full of success of the party, and OF course
anxious that the present turbulency was
quoted.
Uuionists throughout tho city are yet
discussing the action of the National Con-
mittoc in relation to the Delaware silun-
ton. 1t has been suggested to bring Sen
ator Quay Of Pennsylvania here and in
conference with both factions lay before
them The exceeding great danger OF II lllr-
her delay. Union Republicans arc moro
anxious to have the Senator than the op

within reason to break down the party
lines which exist, but cmphatioally
declare that there will DO no more com
promises. 1t Is now altogether probable
that the regulars" will withdraw their
electors before another week. such was
inferred by conversation with one ot
their number this morning.

have been accused of preventing the

Tho sparring match at Kelly's Park last
night between Frsnk Wongo, the Indian,
and Jack DAILY of Wilmington, known
also as MORTALITY, ended in fzzle. The
men were billed to fight twonty rounds,
and looked fit for such contest.
The number ofspectators was not more
than two hundred. Tho first round was
conspicuous by the number of clinches, SO
were the second and third. The fourth
was half over when the two were clinch
ing md hitting to such an extent that
tho police, under orders of Chief Crockett,
told the sparrers that the set-to would be
stopped unless the clinching and roughing
ceased.
The mon looked disappointed, but
whether the disappointment was because
of the threat or because the affair was not
stopped then could not then be told.
The first minute of the next round was
not over when the foul work began again.
The referee made show of trying to sepa-
rate the men, and then yellea:"SOme one
como up here" Tho officers went up, and
then tho referee said it was a draw be-
cause the officers had interfered A spec
tator said it was hardly to be expected

little coin as was in sight.
