ton.
Governor Bushnell held a reception
all the morning and it was noticea BILE
that several of his callers made the
determination OF Senator Sherman to
go into the cabinet as a personal con-
graduation. The governor smiled and
said nothing. To the query of a re-
porter as to how the successor TO Sena-
tor Sherman would be chosen, whether
by himself or by the legislature con-
Vened in special session, Governor
Bushnell was non-committal.
L have really not had time to de-
eide that question" he said. Until
this morning 1 had no positive assur-
ance that the senator would go into
the cabinet, although / thought he
might accept the offer of the. president
elect and l am, therefore, unable to say
what l shall do.
The selection of Senator Sherman
gives me, personally, the. greatest
qualification said the governor. We
have known for some time that he
would have the opportunity to enter
the cabinet, but a good many doubted
whether he would be willing to give up
his place in the senate. His selection
will please everybody in Ohio
You have been named as a possible
successor to Senator Sherman" it was
suggested.
Yes. L have seen some reference to
that but, if l name the successor as
governor / could not name myself and
if there is special session of the leg
islature that body will, 1 suppose, do
as it pleaSeS''

Long Makes a Statement.

Boston, Jan. 16.-Ex-Governor John
D. Long. of Massachusetts arrived here
from Canton, O., this afternoon and
makes the following statement regard
ing his visit:
Il went 10 Canton in response TO a
letter which Governor Mckinley sent
me last Tuesday / reached there yes
terday and just missed seeing Mr..
Lodge who was there Thursday. How
ever, / met Senator's Sherman and Bur-
rows, and the former announced his
acceptance of the state portfolio.
Governor Mckinley sent for me TO
talk with him, and the subject of the
cabinet was mentioned together with
other matters. 1t is true that he has
my name in mind for a cabinet place,
but nothing more definite than that is
settled. a contingency may arise under
which the position may not come to
me or may not be accepted if it does.
1t would more likely be secretary of the
navy or war than anything else"

SHERMAN THE SILENT.
Has Nothing to Say on Any Public
Question, Save That Peace Will
Be the Motto.

Washington. Jan. Ex-senator Sher-
man reached Washington this morning,
after his brief visit to the president
elect. He confirmed the press dis
patches that he had agreed to accept
the secretaTyship Of state, and said the
I information had been given out in Can
ton authoritatiVely. AS 10 who his col
leagues in the cabinet might be, the
senator declined 10 even make a predic-
tion. That was a matter, be added,
that rested entirely with Mr.. Mckinley
and the president-eiect would make his
selection public when he thought the
proper time had come. Senator Sher-
man declines TO discuss the subject OF
our foreign relations, save in the most
general terms. 1t would, he said. be
the policy of the Mckinley administra-
ton 10 preserve peace between this
and all other nations, and beyond this
general statement he did not care to
discuss the subject. Since the publ
cation of his acceptance OF the pre-
miership. Sena tor Sherman has become
more reticent than ever about matters
before the foreign relations committee
of which ne is chairman. On none of
them would he express an opinion, and
from the way the senator talks the
inference is drawn that ne believes, as
secretary of state, he VIII be called
upon to act on many of the subjects
now before his committee and which
cannot possibly be finally disposed of
before March 4.
Senator Burrows, of Michigan, re-
turned from Canton on the same train
with Mr. Sherman. Mr.. Burrows spoke
of Mr.. Sherman's fitness for the duties
he is about to assume, and called at
tentioQ to the fact that although he
would be at the head of the state de-
partment, the president would still
have his advice and counsel around
the cabinet on financial matters. Sena-
tor Burrows went to Canton to urge
the selection of General Alger as sec
rotary of war. While he did not re-
turn with the assurance that General
Alger would get it, Senator Burrows
is faVorably impressed with the inter
view he had, and believed the chances
of his candidate are exceedingly good.

Another Account.

New York, Jan. 16.-"Bob' Fitzsim-
mons, the famed pugilist, had an I'M
pleasant experience late tonight with
a crowd of his admirers.
He had been playing at a Brooklyn
theatre. Tonight, after the show, he
went TO a saloon at the corner OF
Adams and Willoughby streets and en-
tered private room with several
friends. Champagne flowed freely. and
"F'itz' was soon III a shaky condition.
The place was damned with young
men and sports" who crowded around
the pugilist, plying him with ceaseless
questions.
To escape them. he tried TO reach
another private room by climbing over
the lunch counter. In doing this, he
leaned on the shoulders Of some of the
men. They moved so he slipped and
fell to the floor. striking on his head.
He lay motionless for three or four
minutes. Finally he was picked up
and carried TO one of the private rooms.
On the way youth whose spirits were
still over-exuberant, damned Fitzsim-
mons hat down over his head.
The saloon was then cleared. Fitz-
simmons regained consciousness soon
after but did not leave the place until
after l o'clock, as he said he had had
enough of friendly enthusiasm for one
night. and there was a crowd still
hanging around the outside.

badly swollen. Everhardt rushed at his
man like a tiger in the twelfth and
pounded him hard with both hands,
splitting the Brooklynite's lips. Then
Jack got in a fearful right swing which
caught Ernst on the jaw and sent him
to the floor. II was a clean knock
down. Ernst was unable to rise and

saloon, where they drank quite freely.
At midnight, an 1S-year-old newsboy,
with bundle of papers under his arm,
entered the place.

TWELVE ROUNDS.
Jack Everhardt Knocks Out Billy
Ernst.

New York. Jan. 16.-Jack Everhardt
of New Orleans, knocked out Billy
Ernst of Brooklyn in the twelfth round
of their battle at the Broadway Ath-
letic club tonight. The bout was to
have gone Is rounds. but Everhardt
settled the matter with a right on the
jaw in the twelfth. The southerner
had the best of ii from the time they
started fighting in earnest in the fourth
round. He punished Ernst badly and
the Brooklyn boys features were I'M
pleasantly decorated. The battle was
near being a fiZzle as Ernst refused
10 go on for a decision. When the
crowd heard the announcement. they
guyed the fighters numerically dur
ing the tame work of the first three
rounds. Then the management made
the announcement at the end of the
third round that Referee Dick Roche
would give a decision whether Ernst
liked it or not. The battle took
different tone then. and the crowd was
satisfied. The bout attracted 1000
sporting men to the club.
Everhardt was handled by Dan Cree
don and Tommy White. while Ernst
was looked after by Dan Gallagher
and Joe Burke.
The first round was devoted to rather
tame sparring and the audience ex
pressed considerable disgust which was
manifested pretty plainly. The spec
tators whistled Home Sweet Home"
in chorus.
The second and third rounds were
fairly fast, but did not suit the crowd.
Then Manager O'Rourke got into the
ring and announced that there would
be decision. 1t transpired that Ernst
was the objecting party as Everhardt
was willing to go for decision. The
men got to work on the level imme
diately Both swung lefts on the neck
and mixed up at close quarters. Ernst
landed a great left swing on the neck
as the bell rang.
In the fifth Everhardt put both hands
hard on the body several times and
swung a couple of hard lefts on the
neck. Ernst was very wide with wild
swings for the jaw. The sixth round
was uneventful. Everhardt was not
putting up his usual fight.
Everhardt opened the seventh with
a corking left on the mouth and forced
the fighting in a lively style He
showed his left into Ernst's face and
swings on the face Everhardt made
Ernst's nose swell and raised
mouse" over his left eye. Everhardt
swung right and left in the next, driv
ing his man to the ropes a couple of
times and drawing the blood from the
BROOKLYN boys nose. Ernst retaliated
with a couple of hard left swings on
the Jaw and face. ErnstS left eye was
nearly closed. They exchanged some
hard body blows in the tenth and
Ernst'S nose bled.
Ernst showed up prominently in the
eleventh and had bit the best of the

MKENNA IS THE MAN.
No Doubt But That Mckinley Has
Selected Him.

Especial to The Herald)
Washington, Jan. 16.-The visit of
Judge Joseph McKenna TO Canton was
made at the solicitation of President
elect Mckinley. There is no longer any
doubt that Mckenna has been rendered
a cabinet position, thus confirming The
Heralds dispatches. 1t is believed that
McKenna will be appointed attorney
general or secretary of the navy, with
d promise from Major Mckinley that
he will be elevated to the United States
supreme bench, when there shall be a
vacancy in that court. and it is ex-
pected that there will soon be one.
usoloe tield is so feeble that his re-
tirement may be compelled in the near
future. 1t is understood here that
Judge McKenna is unwilling to give up
his present life position for a place in
the cabinet, unless he has an assurance
of appointment to the United States
supreme court.
