clad today prevented a Greek steamer
and sailing vessel from running the
blockade.

Turks today TO convey a company of
provisions at Malaxa. but the essay
resulted in failure, the Turks being
driven off by the insurgents around
Malaxa and pursued to the environs of
Suda where the fire from the Turkish
warships compelled the rebels TO re-
treat. Another effort to supply the fort
with provisions will be made tonight.

said. are preparing for an attack upon
Kissamo, and the admirals command

greatly encouraged by the proclama-
ton issued yesterday by the Italian ad-
miral enjoining the, insurgents and

Mix Up For rs Rounds and the Lat
ter Gets the Decision.


New York, March 24-Frank Erne
of Buffalo met George Dixon, the COL
ored featherweight, for the second time
at the Broadway Athletic club tonight
Dixon got the decision without the
shade of a caVil
Dixon was himself tonight, and he
did all the leading up TO the 21st round.
| Erne stayed away and securely landed
three good blows until the 21st
Dixon fought differently from his
usual style. He was more cautious
and tried hard TO get Erne to lead, but
the Buffalo lad appeared afraid and
sluggish, and he kept strictly away
until after the goth round Then ne
made a desperate effort to knock his
man out, but failed utterly.
The preliminary was to have been
12-round bout between two colored
weights, Lon Beckwith of
Cleveland and George Beyers of Bos-
ton; but Beyers made his man groggy
after two minutes and eight seconds
of the fifth round and the referee stop
ped the bout.
There were 1900 spectators present
when Erne and Dixon appeared. Dixon
weighed 121A pounds and Erne scaled
1904 when they were weighed-at noon
today. Tom O'Rourke wanted to call
the match off, but Dixon wished to
fight and Erne forfeited $500 The
betting was even. Dixon's seconds
were Tom O'Rourke, Joe Elms and
Charley Miner while Erne was looked
after by Brooklyn Jimmy Carroll,
Frank Ziemper and Sam Callaghan.
Before the men shook hands Tom
O'Rourke addressed the spectators and
declared, as manager of the club, that
all bets were off as Erne was over
weight. but the referee announced that
all bets made after the weights were
declared stood.
There was little work done in the
first round. After a minutes sparrine
Dixon's left found the eye, Erne coun-
tering on the body. More sparring fol-
lowed and George led again, but Erne
clinched- Erne's left reached the Jaw
lightly in the second, George counter |
ing on the heart.
George opened the third with a left
over the ear and a moment later sent |
the left hard on the nose, and had the I
best of the fighting that followed. |
DIXON rushed but was stopped with a /
left on the body. Erne swung a left on !
the jaw, George countering hard on
the wind. Just as the bell rang George
sent right on the nose.
In the fourth George shot his left
strong on the nose and repeated it a
moment later. After a lot of sparring
George shot his left to the jaw. Erne
stopped hard swing cleverIy and they
were sparring when the bell rang.

Athens, March 24.-The Emphemois,
which is regarded as rejecting the
views of King George, in an article
upon the Cretan difficulty emphatically
reaffirms the position of the king. The
article concludes as follows:
The king will never join himself
with the powers in pressing the Cretans
to accept autonomy and the suzer-
ainty of the sultan. nor will he ever
consent to such a solution of the diff
ficulty. The Cretans reject autonomy,
which their king rejects also, and will
accept only one solution, namely.
that upon which the will of the nation
and the will of the Cretans shall agree.
Every pressure exerted by the powers
in Crete will have it's counter stroke
on the frontier and beyond"

What May Be Done.

New York, March Pa special cable
to the Herald from st. Petersburg
says:
Advices received here show that
Colonel Nassos is busy spreading a re-
port among the >Cretan insurgents that
the powers wish to deliver them into
the hands of the Turks.
The Greeks themselves openly declare
that their aim is to set Europe by the
ears but that is we'll known here and
is being thoroughly checkmated
If the Greeks continue to prove stub
born they will probably receive a noti-
fication that in case they force the stu
alton by compelling the Turks to an at
tack, they need expect neither help nor
sympathy.

Sunday the management of the Chutes
tried to secure Corbett as an attrac-
ton in addition. This is the only over
ture that has been made looking TO
the appearance of the two men to-

the east the story that Corbett wants
Fitzsimmons to join with him has
gained great currency. According to
the statements of the managers of
both men, nothing could be further
from the truth.

PROFESSIONAL JEALOUSY.

This story recalls the rumors cur
rent in Carson before the fight of
rivalry between Delaney and White,
another of Corbetts trainers. The men
worked at cross purposes ell the time.
The advice to Corbett always con-
fiicted and the pugilist was, therefore,
compelled to do as he thought best for
himself. The jealousy continued until
after the fight, and each laid the blame
for 'Corbett's defeat on the other. Those
who were present in Corbett's corner
say that he fought on the advice given
him by Delaney between rounds, and
that if he had pursued the tactics
White advised the result might have
been different

DELANEY,s WISDOM.

In an interview last night Billy De-
laney, Corbett's trainer at Carson, said
that Jim lost the fight because he
would not take his advice. He said
that Corbett worked altogether too
hard the last few days before the fight,
merely to show off before a lot of east
ern sports; that he played too rru"h
handball: that he refused TO drink
anything when he needed a little malt.
to supply the drain on his system; that
he trained to a feather edge, leaving
not an ounce of surplus flesh on his
bones. and that he talked with people
in mis- corner during the fight instead
of recovering his breath. During the
last three days preceding the fight
Fitzsimmons did very little work,
spending most of his time driv-og
about with Mrs. F'itzsimmons. Corbett
on the contrary, on these days gave
eXhausting exhibitions of his strength,
skill and agility, which greatly de-
lighted his friends but sadly Slapped
his vitality. All of this, Delaney said,
was against his advice and in line
with the advice given him by one of
his other trainers. This later advice,
Delaney claims, cast Corbett the.
championship.
