Irrigation Effect on Streams.

Derience which he believes is of great
! significance in this controversy. He con.
tends that taking water from the river

water lower down the stream.
In the fall of 1884,, said he, before

Berlin, Dec. All sorts of wild
cumors are current here and at Kiel,
probably based in the main upon the
speech of Emperor William at the
opening of the reichstag as to the re-
lations between Germany and China.
But most of these are discredited.
The National Zeitung has confirmed
the statement of the emperor that
Germany's only object in the occupa-
ton at Kiao Chau is to protect Ger
man missionaries in China, and the
alarming stories are now taken with
liberal allowances Of salt.
SENSATIONAL REPORT.
A sensation was caused today by a
report that the Chinese had massacred
200 German sailors belonging to the
German cruiser Division in kiao Chau
bay; but there has been no conirma
ton of this, while the latest dispatches
received from Admiral Won Diederich,
commander Of the Division, which was
dated the afternoon of Nov. %, make
no reference to fighting at Kiao Chau.
But the Berliner Tageblatt is reSpon
sible for the statement that the adj
ditional cruisers are going to Kiao
Chau, bringing the force there UP to
ten ships, with 1000 men and 120 guns.
PERMANENT OCCUPATION.
The same journal says also that a
force of marines, including the crew
of the Imperial yacht Hohenzollern, is
going to Kiao Chau, but there is no
official confirmation of these asser-
lions, although they are held to indi-
cate that a permanent occupation is
intended, especially as it is under
stood that China does not insist upon
evacuation.
RUSSIA WILL OPPOSE.
London, Dec. 2-It is reported here
in well informed circles that the views
of the Russian government have I'M
dergone a change as to the situation
at Kiao Chau bay.
Seeing the large force that Germany
is assembling there, Russia is in
clined, with France, to oppose German
action.
A special dispatch from Shanghai
says that nine men have been arrested
for assisting in the murder of Ger
man missionaries.
1t is currently reported there that
France, Germany and Russia have
entered into a compact for acquisition
of Chinese territory, Germany taking
Han Tung, Russia taking Corea, and
France taking Fo-Kien and Formosa.
JAPANS OBJECTIONS.
The movements of the British and
japanese fleets are supposed to indi-
cate suspicion as to the conduct of
the other powers. Japan objects to a
German occupation OF Kiao Chau I'M
til China has paid the war indemnity.
1t is understood at Shanghai that
China will propose to refer the whole
matter to the powers for arbitration.

SECRET AFFAIR.

SECRET AFFAIR.
The affair was managed with great
secrecy, and was arranged for at Turn
Verien hall, or such was the pretense,
but it was conducted in the carriage
room of we'll known livery stable, set
ting well back toward the middle of
the block The windows were darkened
with horse. blankets and lookouts were
posted about the building.
About 200 men were present when the
principals entered the ring. When it
was noticed that a reporter or two were
in the crowd there was almost panic
in a part of the throng, some Sunday
school teachers being the worst fright
ened but the reporters We're allowed to
stay on condition that no names be
published except those Of the princi-
pals Each man had three seconds, and
seemed in the best of condition.
RATHER TAME.
The first four rounds were rather
tame, each man evidently sizing up his
adversary. The SWede was consider
ably taller and had the advantage in
the reach. Purdy was built from the
ground up, is powerfully muscled and
proved a heavy hitter with his right.
GETS LIVELY.
After the fourth round things Evened
up. The Swede for the most part forced
the fighting, but when cornered Purdy
would rush like a mad bull and fight
his way clear He would duck under
Hansen's braWny arm and deliver
sounding body thwacks with terrific
force, generally getting in hard one
on the break away.
Thirteenth Round.-Cyclone rushed
to have their second wind. Hansen
forced the fighting. Purdy showed
clever foot work and avoided the
Swede's rushes, landing heavily on
Hansen's breast and neck. The SWede
to corner and on ropes; clinch and
break away; Swede forced onto rope
again; claims of foul disallowed.
Thirteenth Round.-Cyclone rushed
Swede, who was knocked groggy,
spared for wind and played defensive
till time was called. During the next
few rounds each man scored g knock
down, Purdy falling by reason of a
slip.
NEWS SPREADS.
News of tie contest had spread and
the crowds thronged about the barn.
The referee ordered the men to settle
it at once or it would be called a draw.
The 22nd round was hot and furious.
The biceDs on the brawny arms rose
and fell and writhed. There was give
and take of heavy body blows. Purdy
put the Swede on the defensive and
was next rushed by the Swede. In the
mix-up Purdy was kicked twice acct
dentally or otherwise and he doubled
up in q heap.

KANSAS FREIGHT RATES.

Meeting Held In Chicago by the Western
Association to Consider Them.
CHICAGO, March 23.-A conference
was held yesterday between the rep
resentatives of Kansas roads and the
board Of administration of the Vest
ern Freight association to consider
contemplated reductions in freight
tariffs in Kansas. The Kansas rail-
ways have determined to revise the eX-

terring Gov. Lcedy from calling an ex-

maximum freight rate bill. No final
conclusion was reached at yesterdays
conference with the board of admins

over certain of the proposed rates. but
its permission is largely a matter of
form, and it is understood the reduced
tariffs will be put into effect by the
different Kansas lines. without regard
to the action of the board.
