Water, williams Knocks Bottle
holder OTxeefe Ont of the Ring.
Police stop the Fight.
Macon, Ca, June 11.--Joe Ullman Of Sa-
vannah and Jack Williams of New Or
leans met in the arena here tonight. Both
were in fine trim and a large crowd ex-
pected to witness a stubborn fight.
In the first round the sluggers were
cautious pnd spared without landing
any hard blows.
In the second round both men became
angry and lost control of their tempers
and made repeated fouls. This contin-
ued through the third and fourth rounds,
Williams showing superior skill and harder
punching power than his antagonist. The
anger of the men made them fight vicious
ly and without caution.
In the fifth and last round Williams
picked Ullman up and threw him hard
on the floor and tried to kick him, but
Referee Player pulled Williams off.
The police then practically stopped the
fight, when a decision of a draw was
given.
The crowd was dissatisfied with the turn
of affairs and expressed their indignation
in strong language.
In the first round Williams was offered
water, which he drank, and afterward
discovered it was medicated. An exam
ination showed that it contained Witch
Hazel and alcohol Williams sprang upon
Bottle Holder OKeefe and knocked him
out Of the ring. He was one of Ullman's
friends and was evidently trying to put
Williams in weak condition.

Later in the afternoon she and the Presi-
dent gave a reception to women only in
the woman's building. During the lun-
cheon the residents in Vanity Fair"
which is similar in many respects to the
Midway Plaisance at Chicago formed an
unique procession and marched past the
club house, from the galleries of which
the luncheon was served
When the luncheon drew to a close there
were demands for speeches from one or
another of the men of national prominence
present, and Gov. Bushnell, Gov. Taylor,
Secretary Sherman, Gen. Grosvenor,
Mayor McKisson of Cleveland and Col.
Charles Page Bryan of Illinois responded.
All the speeches were in a light vein,
suitable to the occasion, and many lively
sallles and humorous allusions met appre-
ciative reception.
From until 1880 o'clock in the evening.
and Immediately following the reception
by President and Mrs. Mckinley in the
woman's building, the visiting newspaper
men were heartily entertained by their
local brethren in the press building.
At O'Clock a fine display of fireworks
over the lake and on shore was viewed by
Mr.. and Mrs Mckinley and party fronA
the steps of the Parthenon. The distin-
guished sightseers were guarded by a cor
don of regiments and evidently greatly
enjoyed the exhibition.
The enjoyment was shared by thousands.
who packed all the available grounds,
bridges, boats. roofs and galleries. Not
at all inferior to the fireworks was the
illumination of all the principal struc-
lures by means of search and electric
lights, there being a notable profusion of
the latter. The fireworks over, the party
returned to the city.

New York, June 11.--Several suits for
the recovery of money have been insti-
tuted against the United States Guide and
Information Company, and the sheriff has
received attachments against the concern
and against E. V. Marshall, the manager.
The company was incorporated under the
laws of New Jersey in 1896, with a capital
stock of $l000O00. one attachment for
$4,000 is in favor OF Mary S. Dimock of
kiswick, Va, against Ernest V. Marshall
manager of the company, and another at
tachment is for $3.50, in favor of Samuel
Penniman, the assis tant treasurer of the
company. Both of these attachments are
for money advanced. Putney q Bishop of
this city are the attorneys for Mrs Dim
ock. Mr.. Putney said that there was
story Of fraud behind the suit, but that
he would not discuss the case until the
papers had been filed.
Lawyer W. A. Sweetzer, counsel for Mr..
Penniman, said that his client had adranc-
ed the $3.50 to help pay expenses In the Of
flee Of the company. Marshall, Mr. Sweet
zer said, was the head and tail of the
company When the company was organ
ized 1t was claimed that 100000 OF stock
had been subscribed for. This money was
not paid In, however, owing to false rep
resentations. MIR. Sweetzer said MIR. Pen
niman and others put money into the CON
cern. Pennlman put IN IS 600, and the stock
he received, Mr.. Sweetzer said, was not
worth the paper Il was written on. Mrs
Dimock had subscribed 5000 originally.
and was subsequently induced 20 put in
$4,000 more. Her son was promised a
position In the company at $40 a week.
The company, or Mr.. Marshall. claimed
TO have contracts for advertising amount
ing TO 100000 This, Mr.. Sweetzer said.
was false. The company proposed to run
a newspaper guide book and to do a gen
eral advertising and collecting business
The officers OF the company could not be
found this evening.

DUTY ON RICE.
The Rate Reduced on the Grades
Used by Brewers.


Used by Brewers.
Washington. June 1i.-Some of the SEN
ators who are interested in the duty on
rice, have until to-day been laboring un-
der the impression that the Senate ac-
cepted the rice schedule Just as 1t came
from the House viz:
Cleaned rice, &c per pound.
Uncleaned rice &c per pound.
Rice flour or broken rice. lhc per pound.
Paddy, u cents per pound.
Upon investigation Il seems that the
House schedule was not adopted I'm its
entirety.
Clean rice, uncleaned rice and paddy re-
tains tho House rate, but the Senate
amended the rate on rice flour and broken
rice by reducing the duty to "a cent per
pound THIS was done, It Is claimed, in
the interest of the beer brewers Of the
west. None Of the southern democratic
sena tors who have followed the rice ques-
tion recently were aware OF this change
in the broken rice and rice flour duty, and
they expressed great surprise when they
learned that the change had been made
Senator Pritchard. of North Carolina, Il
seems, was aware OF the modification, and
he says It will not effect the rice planters
of the southern states. He has received
letters to the effect that so long as the
House rate is retained on the other grades
of rice, the southern rice men will not OBJ
tect to the reduced rate.

The Confederate Survivors AssOcia-
tiOn of Augusta Adopts RESOLUTIONS
Against Inviting G. a. II. Men to
Address Confederate Reunions or
40 Take Part In such Gatherings.
erhe Action of the C. A. II. In De-
cIaring Against IA Confederate Pa
rade In New York Last Year Also
Recalled.
Augusta, Ga, June 1.-THE Confederate
Survivors Association of Augusta tonight
adopted resolutions against inviting Grand
Army men to address confederate reunions
or to take part in such gatherings. They
recite as reasons for their act the recent
history published under the auspices of
the Grand Army of the Republic which
is More partisan, untruthful and denun-
ciatory of us than any of the multitude
of untruthful histories already published"
Second, the action of the G. A. II. in de-
claring against the confederate parade in
New York on the 4th Of July, which was
discussed last year; third. that these re-
unions are in the nature of family re-
unions when the presence of outsiders is
not desirable, and, fourth. that tho pres
enoe of outsiders on such occasions inevi-
tably results in restraint that takes away
from the pleasure OF such occasions and
defeats their object
In presenting these views. the survlv-
ors 'disclaim all animosity towards in
dividuals who fought against us. for there
are many such for whom we retain the
highest respect and regard, and with
whom we hold the most kindly personal re-
lations."
Delegates from this camp to the ap-
preaching convention are instructed to
vote TO carry out these resolutions If the
issue is made before the United Confed-
crate Neterans' convention

cANovAs' HOLD ON POWER.
Important Changes In the Cabinet
Not Many Months on.

london, June 1.-THE Madrid corre-
spondent of the Pail Mall Gazette says:
1T is thought the cabinet, as at present
constituted. will continue only during the
summer sojourn of the court at San Sc
bastian, and that on tho queen regents
return to the capital. II will be radically
changed.
"Senor Canovss del Castillo denies the
report of the retirement of Capt. Gen.
Weyler, but although for the moment he
remains at his post, there Is the best
reason for the belief that his resignation
has been received, preceded by the prom
ise to accept or not as the premier deems
best, according to the circumstances of
the moment.
I'm the meantime. Capt. Gen. Weyler
has sent a telegram TO the premier rec
ommending that municipal elections be
held Immediately in Cuba. This may be
the precursor of other conciliatory meas
ures on his part, but Capt. Gen. Weyler's
antecedents are not such as to inspire
confidence among the people of the island
with regard to his bona fido direction of
liberal reforms, nor is the present re-
habilitated government in a position to
keep him long at his post, in view of the
path that Will have to be followed for a
general paciflcation of Cuba.
Reports are current that a private un-
derstanding exists between Senor CanoVas
and Senior 6agasta, by the terms of which
the latter is to succeed the former at the
proper moment but not at the present
critical juncture, so that the succession to
power shall always be kept between the
chief parties TO the exclusion Of minor fac
tiops, including the Carlists and the re-
publicans."

SENATOR'S AS SPECTATORS.
The TiIIman Resolution TO he Re-
ported Adversely.

Washington, June 1.-THE Senate COM
mtttee on contingent expenses has agreed
upon a report on the Tillman resolution
for an Investigation Of the report that sem
ators have been engaged In speculation in
sugar stock during the tendency of the
tarln bill. The report with be adverse TO
the resolution, and, 1t Is understood, will
go quite fully into the merits of the ques-
uon, showing such investigations as that
proposed to be generally barren.
In tho first place the resolution was
heavily handicapped by the personal un-
popularity of Senator Tillman, In the SEN
ate and the disposition to ignore him and
MS unsupported reflections upon his
brother senators.
Congressional Investigations have in the
past been without practical result and
sensible people have come to regard them
as utterly worthless as discoverers of po-
ltical corruption Aside from these con-
siderations the influence Of the sugar ba-
ronS may have been invoked IN opposition
10 the proposed Investigation. for this has
been great day for the sugar trust These
significant events are recorded In this con-
nection. Broker Chapman, who refused
to give the sugar speculating senator's
away, was released from jail after a
months confinement. A test vote on the
sugar schedule shows that the republicans
have votes enough at their command to
force through the schedule adopted at the
recent caucus in spite of the holes punch
ed in 1t by Senators Jones OF Arkansas.
Vest and German. The final incident was
the refusal OF the committee to report
favorably Senator Tillmans resolution to
investigate the trust. Sugar Is surely king
i'm the Senate.
