Washington, March S.-PresiGent Nc
as democratic as possible during his
official residence in Washington by
taking another walk this afternoon
through a part of town frequented by
promenaders at that hour. He had
been subjected to a hard day of it,
and when the last caller had gone,
shortly before o'clock, he walked out
with Secretary Porter. Many people
recognized the president before he had
reached the east gate of the grounds
and their salutations were responded
to cordially. At the gate half a dozen
people held up the president and shook
hands with him. Then he struck across
Pennsylvania avenue and up Madison
place to Vermont avenue They were
back at the White House by 6 o'clock.
julius Palmer, the Boston gentleman
who is a sort of major domo' to the
former queen of Hawaii during her
residence here, was among the ear
liest callers at the White House after
luncheon. He handed Mr.. Porter a
note which was said to be a request
from "her gracious majesty as he
calls Liliuokalani, for an audience at an
early date.
More than 1000 people shook hands
with the president at public recep-
ton which began at 3 o'clock. The
majority of those who attended were
women.
Major Mckinley started out at the
rate of 35 handshakes a minute, but
soon increased it to the average of 45
a minute, maintained by the presiden-
tial expert in the art-General Harri-
son. One of the callers was a child
attired as the Goddess of Liberty.
This is Pansy, Mr.. President; Pansy,
this is the president" said the child's
mother breathlessly- Pansy shook
hands with Major Mckinley and re-
ceived a pat on the head. Practically
all the afternoon callers on the presi- |
dent came merely to pay their re-

PLANS WELL LAID.
Natives, Interfered, However, and
Prevented What Would Have
Been a Bloody Battle.

ST. Paul, Mimi, March S-A dispatch
from Chippewa Falls, Wis, says:
A snow storm and belated passenger
train were two circumstances that prob
ably prevented a bloody encounter be-
tween a gang of bandits and hundred
or more armed deputies last night. A few
days ago the Omaha officials received in
formation to the effect that an attempt
would be made to hold up the Duluth
limited which leaves Superior for Eau
Claire at $50 in the afternoon. The place
selected is a lonely spot in q forest about
th-ee miles north of Hawthorne, and If
the train is on time it arrives there about
Z o'clock in the evening. Had the Duluth
train not been delayed six hours in
snow drift. the bandits would have re-
cc--ed the warmest reception last night
eve accorded a gang of desDeradoes,
cars We're filed with armed deputies who
were ready to open fire at Q moments
notice. The men We're quietly taken
aboard at Superior Junction and were
given careful instructions by the Of
hc:als of the road who were notified as
to the plans of the robbers. 1t was their
plan to flag the train and just as soon
as it slowed up sufficiently two men were
to secure control of the engine. while the
rest of the gang rified the mail and bag
gage cars and went through the pas
sencers in the coaches.
re Omaha officials prepared to allow
the bandits to carry out their programme
as to the Tagging of the train, t.lt an
entire change of scenery had been ar
RANGED for the second act. when it was
proposed to drop the curtains on the gang
OF desperadoes. but for the heavy snow
sto..- which held the train at Superior
JUNCTION until 2 O'Clock this morning.
When It arrived at the scene of the pro-
posed robbery the bandits had taken their
departure having evidently abandoned
tho attempt for the night. The pas
ser ~ers knew nothing of what was in
store for them until the danger point
was passed. when the story leaked out.
II IS understood that one of the gang

which the robbers had adopted.

Carson, March S.-This was a dismal
day in Carson, within and without
Corbett and Fitzsimmons went
through their regulation stormy day
programme with more or less grumb-
ling, and nothing transpired to create
much excitement.
Fitzsimmons waded through the slush
for an hour or two before noon with a
gun over his shoulder, but found moth
ing to shoot at He rested for some
time after a hearty dinner, and did
not appear anxious to work. His wife
and baby arrived this evening.
Roeber, Hickey and Stelzner had an
easy time of it this afternoon. None
of them stopped many blows. and the
taps they did receive were light and
playfully landed.
Half an hour before the eastern train
was due, FitZSimmonS put on his leg
gingS and set out for Carson, paced by
his great Dane, Yarum. Mrs. Fitz
simmons was greeted with a hearty
smack as she came down the steps,
and the baby received a fond coddling.
Bob then trotted home behind the car
riage containing his wife and child and
Martin Julian.
Corbett was not so pacific. He lost
a close game of handball in the morn
ing, and it seemed to nettle him. He
started out for his afternoons work
like a hired man who had not been
paid his wages for six months. The
punching bag did not hang to suit
him, and he thumped it so hard that
the valve stop flew off and into the
gutter, and the rope snapped. None
Of those who were present at this dis
play Of irritation went away with any
doubt in their minds as to JimS hit
ting ability. When the ball rebounded
aWkwardly, he would hook it with his
left three or four times in rapid sue
cession at terrific speed, and if Fitz-
simmons ever catches one of such
blows he may as well cancel his the
atrical dates. After the bag collapsed,
Jim essayed to wipe out the defeat of
the morning at handball. He sue
ceeded this time in making it three
on Al Hampton. This put him
in better humor, and McVey's head
did not bump the wall with such vio
lence during the wrestling bout, which
was next on the programme Jeffries,
Woods and Joe Corbett contributed
four rounds of amusement for the
but they were not so hard
pressed as usual. Jim invited attack

time. He danced, side-Stepped, ducked
and lodged, all the while begging his /
trainers TO follow him up and land if
they could. They kept after him, but |

Mercur, Utah, March S.-An accident
| occurred today by which Steven Gar
volino lost his life. He was engaged
as miner on the La Cigale and was at
work in the drift at the bottom of the
Lillian Russell incline.
The incline is about 265 feet deep,
and is at an angle of so degrees. \
skidway is constructed on which the
bucket slides when being hoisted or
lowered. At times the empty bucket
sticks on the skids on it's way down,
making it necessary TO hoist the bucket
a little distance before it will descend.
To prevent this the skidway is creased
every morning and it is seldom the
bucket stops in its downward course.
Shortly after o'clock the bucket stuck
on the skidway on it's way down about
five feet from the bottom and GarvO-
limo gave the signal to hoist and lower
and the signal was Obeyed by the men
on the top. About five minutes passed
and no more signals having been made
one of the men went down the ladder
to see what was wrong and was hOrri-
fed to find GarVolino lying at the bot
tom of the shaft apparently dead. The
unfortunate man was hOisted TO the
surface and DR.. Sykes was brought
from Mercur as soon as possible, but
nothing could be done for GarvolinO.
He died shortly after 1 D. m, having
been conscious but a few minutes about
IL a. m, but was unable to tell much
about it. The only plausible theory is
that GarvOlinO after giving the signal
started to climb the ladder and the
descending bucket, which weighs 80 or
more pounds, struck him on the head,
crushing the skull on the right side and
tearing the flesh loose from the right
side of his face and it seems wonderful
that he could've so long after the ac-
cident. Had he been at the bottom
of the shaft the bucket would not have
struck his head. Why he rang the
signal and then commenced to climb
is a mystery, as he knew the danger.
Mr.. Scheu, who has always been very
particular in his orders, can only sur
mise that the man made a mistake, of
which ne paid the penalty with his life.
GarvolinO has been at work at the La
Cigale several months and was a good
miner. He was % years of age and a
native OF Italy, his only relative in this
being a brother, James Car
volinO, who is assistant timber man at
the La Cigale and who was at work on
the mine at the time of the accident.
Deceased was a member Of the Italian
lodge at this place The body was
brought to Mercur this afternoon and
taken TO Watts undertaking establish
ment, where il is being prepared for
shipment to Salt Lake City, where it
will be taken for burial tomorrow No
inquest will be held as the cause of
death is known and all admit that no
one could be held responsible.

PARK CITY SNOW SLIDES.
Body of Joseph yucca, the Fourth
Victim Recovered.

Park City, March S.-The body Of
the last remaining victim of the DAILY
snow slide, Joseph yucca, was found
this morning about o'clock near the
boiler-room. The right side of his face
was somewhat crushed, but he looked
very natural Arrangements for the
funerals have not yet been made.
The bodies of the men, James W.
Keeting, Nicholas POffin, Nicholas Ru-
fatto and Joseph yucca, were all
brought down from the Daily mine to
the city through Empire canyon, being
drawn on stretchers through the snow
to the Anchor tunnel and being con-
veyed from there on sleds-
The bodies of Rufatto, yucca and
Keeting were placed in Collins under
taking parlors, while POffin's body
was taken to Richardson's
Poffin was a member of the Partc
City Miners union and Park City lodge
No. Z, L o. o. F. He has two sisters
in this city, Mrs. Victor Franklin and
Mrs William Wintford. He was 81
years of age and native of France,
having lived in this country ten years.
He leaves a wife and three children
living at Murray. The widow is ex-
pected here today.
Rufatto was a member of the
Miners union and Court Unity, An
cient Order of Foresters, at Jackson,
Cal. He was 3S years old and native
of Italy, where his wife and three
children reside. His father-in-law
lives at Bingham.
yucca was q years of age, an ItaI-
ian and unmarried. He has a brother,
James, working at the DAILY mine. He
was a naturalized citizen.
Keeting was 80 years of age and
leaves a family residing at Butte. A
telegram received from his widow this
evening states that she will leave for
the Park at p. m. Tuesday, arTNing
here at noon Wednesday. The funer-
al will be delayed until her arrival.
Committees from the 1. o. 0. F.,
Miners union and Foresters were ap-
pointed tonight to arrange for the
funerals of Poffin and Rufatta, but
the time has not yet been decided
upon.
Zucca's funeral was to have been
held on Wednesday at the Catholic
church, but has been postponed.
No inquest has been held, the au-
thorities not deeming it necessary.
The work of shOveling out the snow
from the engine and boiler-rOoms at
DAILY No. has been pushed as rapidly
as possible, but it will be some time
before the debris can be cleared away
and a correct estimate made of the
loss sustained

M'AULIFFE RESPECTABLE.
Retires From the Ring in Favor of
LaVigne.

New York, March S.-John L. Sulli-
van, Kid Lavigne and Jack McAuliffe
formed very interesting group on the
stage Of the Star theatre last night, the
occasion being a benefit given McAu-
life incidental to his permanent retire
ment from the ring.
Sullivan stepped to the center of the
stage.and the crowd which filled every
part of the house gave one loud shout
and began to applaud. The noise con-
tinued for fully a minute and when it
subsidized the former champion said in
his usual tone of voice:
Ladies and gentlemen: 1 am here
tonight to present to you Kid Lavigne
who will succeed Jack McAuliffe as
lightweight champion of the world.
He is a young fellow, and 1 hope he
will defend it as well as McAuliffe has
DONE"
In McAuliffe's behalf 1 want to say
that he has all the faith in the world
in Lavigne to do full justice to the
title which McAuliffe has relinquished.'
McAuliffe then came upon the stage
in a dress suit and was called upon to
say something. He merely looked at
the audience, bowed and retired.

Object to the Dissertation of st. Pat

San Francisco, March Sat meet
ing yesterday to perfect arrangements
for celebrating st. Patricls's day, the
following denunciation of the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons fight was adopted:
Whereas. 1t has been made notori-
Gus throughout the United States, that
a prize fight will be held at Carson,
New. on next st. Patrick's day; and,
Whereas, This convention for the
proper celebration of ST Patrick's day
in this city has approved legitimate
and manly sports of all kinds under re-
liable direction in conformity with the
well known love of Irishmen for such
sports and their uniform success in
contests of strength, endurance and
skill; and,
Whereas, a prize fight under the
best circumstances, possesses no char
acteristics of true sport, but is re-
pulsive to the best element of our peo-
pie: therefore, be it
Resolved, That we appeal to our
people, to the many among them who
are lovers of true athletic games and
sports, to discountenance the coming
fight, to keep away from it, and to re-
pei authoritatively any suggestion that
il has the support and approval of rep
utable IriShmen." fl

every round but the fifth TO the
KIDS once, but his blows lacked
the strength of Lavigne's. Nearly
1000 people packed the arena.
McKeever started right at Lavigne
and it was give and take throughout
the round. with the local man doing
most of the leading. The second round
was also in McKeever's favor.
In the third round Lavigne cut loose
and went at his tall antagonist like
tiger and landed some terrific body
blows. but McKeever stood up to it
plUckily.
The fourth and fifth were started by
Lavigne in hurricane style, but the
last round was the hottest of the bout
and both men banged each other
around the ring in terrific style and
both were strong on their feet when
time was called
