Of New York. Billy" Elmer was chosen
referee.
McCue was resplendent with a snowy
pompadour a la Corbett, and Demps
had an eagle EN- blazoned on his chest in
India ink.
The affair was an interesting scrimmage
in some respects. Both did considerable
unscientific fighting at close range, and
clinched a good deaf. ~
McCue had the best of the first round.

several hard straight lefts on his oppon-

Macs left in the next round with very
little return. He was much distre sed at
the end of the round.
The pace was firing and neither did
much in The fifth, McCue's blows lacking
steam. Dempsey did better in the nexf
round. his superior stamina and muscle
standing him in good stead against his
lighter opponent.

Dempsey's strength and game ness
brought him through the tenth, and he
made things lively for Mac in the elev-

however, his face being cut and oruiseo'

In the twelfth round Dempsey came up

.BBANKS WOULD TARRY.
He Desires Not to Be Hanged
Next Friday, Any
how.

Eugene n. Deuprey. looking a tritie
gray and worn from a lifelong struggle
with the courts in his successfu1 fort to
prolong indefinitely the lives Of con-
demned murderers, made his fifth or
sixth appearance in the United States
District Court yesterday aftern oon-this
time on behalf of Murderer Joseph Japhet
Ebanks, whose hangday had been set by
an oversanguine San Diego Judge for to-
morrow.
Judge de Haven was on the bench, and
when Mr.. Deuprey offered to read the PEE
tition for the writ of habeas corpus the
court interrupted by asking, with as much
GOODNESS as though he were inquiring after
Mr.. Deuprey's health, what was the date
of the alleged hanging of Mr.. Ebanks.
Louis p. Boardman saw an opening here
anu jumped into il. He was sentenced
to be hanged next Friday, explained
Mr.. Boardman. 80. ..::< II: r ~
Hangman,s Friday is long way off in
California recently, and the court at once
saw that there was no necessity for being
In an unholy rush. That IS, it Is pre-
sumed that the court saw this fact, for the
court never opened its head on hat point.
But when the court did speak it remarked
that it would listen to Mr.. Deuprey}s tale
of woe at half-past o clock this after
n Don, and tnat in the meantime the At
torney General of the State would be
notified SO that his Office could be pre-
scented. .::.
Messrs. Dsuprey and Board man bowed
respectfully to the court and withdrew,
and the Judge went. down in the elevator,
which is operated by a plebian.
In order that there might be no legal
hitch the other attorney for the murderer,
| j. S. CalIen, went before the State SUI
| preme Court in the afternoon and hled a
| petition of probable cause The State
Supreme Court is asked to direct Warden
| Hale of the State prison at San Quentin
| not TO execute Ebanks until these several
matters are settled iii the several courts.
+ 1t is likely that the court will act upon
| the petition without delay.
The petition flied in the United States
| Court alleges that Ebanks was resen-
! fenced to death at a time when an appeal
was pending before the Supreme Court oil
| the United States and when an appeal
was pending before the State Supreme
! Court. It is alleged, therefore" that
thanks has been deprived OF the rights so
accorded him by3tAe constitution of the

SEARCHED THE OCEAN.
Friends of the Missing Andrew
Sweetser Hunting for the
Lost Man.

The ocean as far out as the Farallones
was searched yesterday for some trace of
the missing Andrew /. Sweetser, the Dres-
ident of the Cordelia Wine Com pany, but
not the least c.ew could be found that
would give an idea of where he had gone.
Sweetser on Saturday hired a small row
boat at SausaEto and went fishing IN the
vicinity OF Lime Point. II was alone on.

night when he did not return to his apart
ments at the Strathmore his wife. became
anxious and began making inquiries for
him. Mrs. SWeetser said when her hus-
band did not come back on Saturday
night she thought he had gone to the
home of his brother near San Rafael TO
remain over night and resume his fishing
on Sunday, and no apprehension was felt.
for him until he failed 10 come home
or send word on Sunday night.
j. r. SweeIser. the brother was notified
on Monday morning and a search was
commenced. The poatman at Sausaiito
where the boat was engaged became APP
pre- hensive for the safety of his customer
and on Sunday he made some inquiries
for the missing man. but all he coutdIearn
was that the beat of the lone fisherman
was seen about noon off Lime Point, with
the fisherman sitting idly in the learn of

and an hour aiterward a strong ebb tide
was running. The boatman came to the
conclusion that the fisherman was carried
out to sea by the current. and the friends
OF the missing man are of the same opin-
ion. The shores of the bay were searched
on Monday for some trace of the boat, but
without effect, and yesterday the tug Sea
Witch was engaged TO hunt outside The
Heads for The boat of the fisherman g. w.

search, but they returned to port late in
the afternoon without finding any trace
of the los man. - ::<...s4 z. -.
The failure to find even trace of the
skiff gave the searchers hope that the
missing man and the boat may have teen
picked up by some outward bound yesse

night that WAS the only hope that Sweet
ser's friends entertained for his safetv
None of the steamers passing out on SAT-
urday or Sunday were noticed to stop on
the way down the bay, and if he was
picked up il was probably by some of the
ailing vessels, and they will not all be
heard from for several days yet.
