TIE MIDDLE WEIGHTS,

Chicago. August l9.-The match be-
tween Dam Creedon and Kid Mccoy the
middle weights, for the championship OF
the world, has not yet been con UNI
mated although purse Of $4,000 has
been offered by w, A. Brady, and forfeits
OF $1,000 a side have been deposited With
Al Smith, OF New York. Colonel Hop
klns. Creedon's hacker signed articles
for the match In New York ton days
ago. He says: 81 brought Creedon over
fran England to meet Mccoy. Creedon
accepted an ofrer OF 5000 purse. but
Mccoy held off for $4,000 and an interest
In the privileges. Brady finally offered
that amount and the ardcles were signed
on behalf of Creedon in New York ten
days ago. Mccoy has 30 far failed to
sig. It don't seem to me as II Mccoy
Is over-anxious to meet Creedon."

twenty cars to each train. Filled wiHh water the ship would carry B. 900 .0OO gallons gallons Filled with meat, coffee or flour she could carry 44SOO ,OO0 pound packages, or more than half pound to every person in the whole of the United States
 The propellers of the new ship are driven by quadruple engines, another novelty for the transatlantic steam ship trade It is said that the build CTS of the ship, the Vulcan company, Stettin, have unreservedly guaran- teed that she will beat anything now af1oat when fully tuned up, so that the St. Paul and her mate, the St. Louis, which hold the records be- tween New York and Southampton, will have to look. to their laurels.
 It is about settled that if the Kali ser Wilhelm der Crosse does not come scooting over the ocean quicker than any leviathan has ever done, it will be left to her companion ship, the Kaiser Frerierich, which is fifty feet shorter. and now in course of con struction by Schichau of Dantzig te do so.

Miss Ingalls will leave Atchison in two or threne weeks to be- gin studying for her life's dork. Miss Ingalls, most intimate friends did not know of her intentions to become a deaconess until she made the an nouncement yesterday and it is the subject of much comment. As a dea- coness in the Episcopal church, Miss Ingalls, duties will be similar to those of a Catholic sister of charity, except that she does not take the VOW of celi- bacy.

LARGEST OCEAN GREYHOUND
Larger Than the Great Eastern, and
 Built for Great Speed.

New YOrk, Sept. 27.-Wlth the eX- ception of the new White Star Line steamer Oceanic, which is still on the stocks, the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse, which has arrived here from Bremen, is the largest ocean grey hound that has been built since the time of the Great Eastern. The Ham burg-American Line has ship. the Pennsylvania, that is even larger in carrying particulars than was that fla mous white elephant, but the Penn sylvania is not what is known as an express steamer, and for that reason is not included in the comparisons that are given in tabular form below
 The Pennsylvania has a gross ton mage of 1S,5O0 tons, but her indicated horse power is 5000 only. The Kali ser Wilhelm der Crosse is divided i'm to eighteen separate water tight com partmentS, extending to the upper deck. It would be possible to fill three of these with water without sinking the ship. She is propelled by twin screws of twenty-two feet three and three-fourths inches diame- ter, each weighing twenty-six tons, and turned by nickel steel shafts. a novelty, made at the Krupp works in Essen. The ship has two pole masts only, but four fumes, another inno- vation, for a merchantmen. Her promenade deck for first saloon pas sengers, of which class she will be able to carry $50, is 400 feet long.
 The main dining room is so spac- ious that the full complement of first cabin passengers can take their meals at one time. There are also four small dining rooms adjoining the main saloon and close to one specially designed for the use of children and nurses. A considerable proportion of the state rooms has been arrang- ed for single occupancy, thus re1iev- ing persons travelling alone of the necessity of sharing d. state room with an enforced companion. There are also four suites, with parlor, bed room, bath and servants room con- meeting. There are twenty addition al luxurious bath rooms, fourteen for | first cabin and six for second saloon passengers.
 Not alone in speed, but in a cargo carrying capacity as well, will the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse be re- narkable. It would be possible tc stow the St. Paul building, which is : 306 feet high and weighs 25,0OO. .0O( 1 pounds, in her hold and still have 1 considerable room left. Were the | ship to be placed on end she would rise some 300 odd feet above the most famous sky scraper of New York ! Were the ship to load out and out
 with a cargo of wheat the product ot
 40,0C0 acres would find space under i her matches. In other words, allow. | ing $50 bushels of wheat to railroad
 car, the. ship would be able to hide
 away the contents of z,230 cars, ol more than sixty 1G 5, figuring or
