Rcss, champion of Wyoming and Eu-
gems Turner, champion of Kansas. came
off this evening in the Edgar Opera
House before an immense audience, in
which Turner came off victorious by
knocking out Ross in the Goth round
The contest Was for the gate money.
1t was evident in this contest. as we'll
as in the former, that Turner was far
the cleveresit fighter, even enough he
is considerably lighter in weight than
Ross. He had the advantage from the
beginning, hitting Ross whenever and
wherever he wanted to, and in return
getting no punishment whatever. AT
the conclusion of the contest Mr.. Tur-
ner, from the platform, cha llsnged any
man of his weight in tine state of Wyo-
ming foc q 25-round contest for 81, 000
The sports are celebrating Turner's vic
tory at the various club rooms this
evening, as almost ell the betting was
on Turner being satisfied from the fer
nlelr contest that in a square fight he
would come out victorious.

GTande in connection with the Oregon
Short Line and the Oregon. Railroad &

in effect through car service between
Denver, Colorado Springs, Pueblo,
LeadvilIe and Portland which will take
care of the passenger traffic between
the east and the northwest without in
convenience besides giving passengers
the opportunity of passing through the
cities named and stop over at Great
Salt Lake City on their way between
the east and the west, this arrange
ment being of the greatest possible
benefit to the entire state of Utah.
In addition to the above, it is as
serted that the Union Pacific has had
the same trouble with every line which
has cut loose from it. 1t was the same
with the Denver, Pacific q CUR, the 81
Joe & Grand Island, the South Park
and others.
Of course, all this is simply an e2
preston OF opinion and is cited merely
as reflection of sentiment among rail-
road men. Until the situation becomes
clearer there is no opportunity for COM
ment by a newspaper
There are those who assert that this
state of affairs will not long continue;
that the Union Pacific cannot stand it,
and viii ask for q conference in the
very near future with the officials of
the Short Line.
Be this as it may, the situation is
received, it is hard to understand the
position of the Union Pacific.
