With McLeod-A C.snce for . General

Evan Lewis, erstwhile cham piou
catch-as-catch-can wrestler of the
world, was an asv winner n his
match with John Voss, of this CITY.
at Harper's theatre last night. His
agreement was to pin Vos. 10 the
carpet six times in one hour or for
felt $3.50. The first fall was won in
J minute, the second in 2:3D, the
third in $50, the fourth in 2. the
fifth in 2 and the final bout in LIS.
Thomas j. Gallagher, the b~,lliardist.
refereed the match, Farmer Burns
and l.. r Aciley, of Davenport, off

The severe weather prevented
many from turning out. aud as a
consequence the event was witnessed
by a small sized audience compared
with the crowds which have turned
out on previous occasions Of this
character. Lewis handled his oppo-
nent like a toy. and people who ex-
pec:ed 10 see in him ali that is brutal

disappointed. Voss, CT course was

for his qullities because he went

Challenge From Lewls.

AT the conclusion of the match.
Referee Gallagher announced that he
mad oeen authorized by Lewis to
challenge any man in the world TO
wrestle for from 800 up. There
were calls for Lewis. He esponded
and said that he was desirious of re-
tanning the friendship Of all the
wrestlers, and therefore did not care
TO particularjze, but would saw th,.
he would throw Ed Anterior three
times in az hour on 4 wager OF $500.
Lewis said lie had been having low
Tor a couple of years nov, and he
wanted a match, and thereupon chsl-
lenged to wrestle any man in the
world catch-as -catch-can for a re.-
souaSle amount OF money. Burns

fea.ed Lewis once. and gave the a.
dience 10 understand in an indirec:
way that he was not anxious to

preferred meeting Dan Mcleod first.

London, Feb. 25.-Ihe Daily News, in it's comments tomorrow of the Ia test de- velopments in the Cretan trouble, while welcoming the broad fact of autonomy being granted to the island, will empha- size the necessity of a searching exam ination into the details, especially the proposal that the Greek troops shall be withdrawn prior to the Turkish trops. This proposal, the paper declares, must be reconsidered, unless the interna tional forces are ready to replace the Turkish garrisons. Apart from this, Greece hay ing extorted a settlement from the pow CTS, can bow only to superior force with out disloyalty to the Hellenic idea.

 Charles A. Tyler.
 Officer Mullin yesterday afternoon ar rested Jim Lucas and doeketed a case of vagrancy against him on the register. A short while afterwards a young man called at the prison and identified Lucas as one of his assailants on last Wednes- day night. The young man was Charles A Tyler, the extra motorman who was robbed at the corner of Avenue F and Twentieth street of $6.0Q in cash, his watch and badge by two negro men.
 Tyler, in conversat tion with State Her aid repjorter stated that he had put his car in the barn and then came to the city to purchase some medicine. This he had done and took the 11:90 car for home. He got off of the car at Avenue F and started for the barn to get his basket. While in the shadow of the Southside Baptist church he was held up by two ne- groes whom he says he can identify
