Their Assailants Shot Dead.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich, Jan. 1.-Two

the result of crusade the police have

AS the officers entered the air wag filled
with clubs, bottles and glasses. officer
Viergiver was struck on the head and
felled with club. He was drawing his
revolver as he fell and he pulled the
trigger Several shots were fired from
the crowd and Harrington managed to
get his revolver out and pulled it on
Treadwell, who was pounding him on
the head with a bottle.
The next moment Harrington went to
the floor. A great crowd had gathered In
front of the saloon and the excitement
was intense. One officer outside guard
ed the door and sent for the patrol wag-
on. A squad of eight policemen respond
ed with orders TO arrest everyone in the
place, but most of the crowd had man
aged to slip away. Officer Viergiver had
an arm broken In two places, a finger
broken. his nose dislocated and an awful
cash across the scalp. His injuries are
not necessarily fatal
officer Harrington was cut with brok-
en- glass. He has a severe scalp wound
and serious body injuries. Treadwell
was shot in the right lung. An examina-
ton late tonight siFwed that he is suf-
fering severe hemorrhages. He is not

any match game with amateur football
elevens, and limited to contests with
professional teams. As it happens there

the northern men now occupy d very
unique position in the athletic world
1t is probably the first time that an ag-
gregation Of young men anxious for con-
test found themselves isolated by them
selves. President Humphrey also
awarded the match game to the Olymp-
les py default. amid much confusion
Chen the two teams lined up in an ex-
hibition game. 1t was a bitter and
brutal struggle, but technically speak

The guns to be taken to Corn island
by the Nicaraguan troops are under

Corn island Is conceded to be the

The ground is so high above the sea
and the sides of the larger Island are
rocky and admirably adapted to being
converted into a strong fortiflcation.

business there. Both Big and Little

Under the circumstances, when the
Nicaraguan canal Is built, 1t would be
good policy for the United States to OBJ

purchase or otherwise and have fine

some respects the best yet seen on this

the wonderful riding Of w. E. Becker of

following men qualifying for the final:

Bovee of Texas The final was paced by
two tandems, the first, Dow and Boyden,
taking the riders for the first three miles,
and she second, McCrea and Chapman,
taking them for the last two miles. AT
ter pretty battle for the position behind
the pacemaker, Becker got the machine
with BoVec, Whitman, II. Terrill and II
Terrill lined up behind in the order NAM
ed. Time after time Becker's opponents
attempted to take the position from him
by riding in front of the pacemaker and
dropping back. These attempts were in
variably successful but each time
Becker did the same thing, and at the
end of two miles only Becker and Bovee
remained in the fight. The latter drop
ped out on the third mile, leaving Becke,
| to ride the race out. The pacemakers
were too slow for him, and he continually
| called for faster pace.
| The miles were ridden at an average
pace of 2:12 each, but the scorers made
an error and Becker had to ride an ex-
ira lap, which made his time for the
