The McCOy-CreedOu Mill.

NEW YORK, December 17.-What
may probably turn out to be the great
est boxing contest ever pulled off in
the east will be the twenty-round bout
kid" Mccoy, which is tn be decided at
the Long Island Athletic CLUB tonight.
Under the original articles of agree
n ent the men we're to have come to-
gether last month at Montreal, but so
forcible we're the objections offered
by the provincial authorities that no
attempt was made to bring the men to-
gether. 1t was thought for awhile
that similar conditions would prevail
in this country, but Tom O'ROurke,
who has pulled off so many successful
cOntes' in the now defunct Broadway
Athletic club, succeeded in getting
license for the mill on Long Island,
and at this late hour no inter ference is
offered to the programme. The contest
weight championship of the world,
and, as both men are the only boxers
in that class who are entitled to fight
for that title, the indications are that
they will both do everything in their
power to gain the decision. From the
moment these men were matched to
box in Canada the bout has stirred up
ing fraternity all over this court-y,
and now that the contest is to be dec d.
ed it is expected that the largest crowd
that ever witnessed mill in this state
will be on band to see the two men
battle. Both Creedon and Mccoy have
been training ipdustriously and are in
excellent shape to enter the ring.
Although they are to box at catch
weights they will both strip this even
ing at 100 to 165 pounds. Should Nc
Coy defeat Creedon the victory will
fly at the highest game in the pugil s.
tic arena, Robert Fitzsimmons. The
India ma boy announces that in case of
sue ;ess be will challenge Fitz to battle |
for the middleweight championship, |
which title the Cornishman now holds. |
Fitz would be compelled to enter the |
ring at the middleweirht limit of 158 |
pounds, but as the holder of both the
ddleweight and heavyweight cham
claims that he can fight we'll |
at 1856 pounds he should have no diff
Guilty in reaching 156 pounds. AS Fitz
has never beaten Mccoy the latter
would have an unquestioned right to
ask the Cornishman to defend the title
Or relinquish it.

The Anti-ScaIpinp Bill.

WASHINGTON, D. G. December IL
The Interstate commerce committee of
the senate, upon the Gail of Senator
Cullom, met today for the purpose OF
taking up the auti-soalping bill. This
measure was given much consideration
by the committee during the last ses-
sion of the fifty fourth congress. and
also during the extra session of last
summer. It happened, however, that
the pooling bill was before the commit
te at the same time. and as each
measure had its supporters who claim.
ed precedence. neither bill got out of
committee. During the past few
months resolutions demanding the
passage of an .anti-scslping bill have
been adopted by scores of boards Of
trade, chambers of commerce, me--
chants associations and similar COM
mercial organizations throu hout the
country, and It. has become evident
that an extraordinarily strong feeling
in favor of such legislation exists out
side of railroad circles. Hence Senator
Culom, as chairman of the committee,
has determined to push the measure to
the trout. Meanwhile the scalpers
have not been idle and every move
of the opposition will be vigorously
resisted with the aid of q powerful
lobby,
