DAVE SULLIVAN LOST THE BOUT THE LUcKESS MARIA TERESA
STUPIDITY OF Els BROTHER
THE CAUSE.
But Dixon Had Him Beaten Anyway
Immense Crowd Witnessed the
Mill-Bets at Even Money.

Lenox Athletic Club, New York, Nov.
11.-Through the unlooked-for impulse
iveness and stupidity of his brother
Jack" Dave Sullivan, the little Irish
pugilist, lost the ibout with George
Dixon, the coloredg feather-weight
champion, tonight at the LenoX Ath-
letic club. The lads were matched to
go 25 rounds at ~ pounds, and for nine
rounds Dixon had the call. He was
Sullivan's master in nearly every in
stance and in the tenth round he more
than outpointed his adversary. left
hand hook from Dixon, which caught
Sullivan on the head, almost put Dave
out Of business. but he pulled himself
together, only to go to the floor near
the ropes from a push. This occurred
near the end of the round, and Jack
Sullivan evidently thought that time
was up. While Dave was trying to re-
gain his feet, Jack jumped through the
ropes and then ran back again.
a moment later. just as Dave stood
erect, Jack jumped into the ring again
and ran over to the referee, shouting
Time is up Time is up" Jimmy
ColYille Of Boston, who was referee,
looked at the impulsive youngster in
amazement and then spoke to the time
keeper, who said "Two-forty only" and
then Colville waved his hands, so as to
tell every one that the bout was over.
Sullivan could not understand what
was up, as Dixon made no effort to go
at him, and then the whole thing
flashed upon him. He appealed to the
referee to continue, but Colville's hands
We're tied under the rules and he had no
alternative. This sudden termination
Of the fight was a sad disappointment
to the spectators, as Sullivan was not
beaten when the fiasco occurred and
would undoubtedly have gone on for
several rounds, but Dixon had such an
advantage at the time that there is no
question that he would have received
the decision if the bout had gone the
limit.
Dixon was not so fast as of yore, but
was equally as clever, and at no time
during the contest did Sullivan have
the upper hand. Since the Maher-
Sharkey fight the LenoX Athletic club
has never held such a large number of
spectators as it brought out to witness
tonights mill More than 5000 people
were in the hall. When the betting be-
gan Dixon was the favorite at odds of
100 to so on, but all offers at this price
were so quickly snapped I'D by the
friends of the little IriShman that even
money was the ruling price inside of 20
minutes. Then more Dixon money came
in si=ht and the odds on the colored
boxer went up again to 100 to So
Spike" Sullivan's brother made a
circuit of the boxes and placed about
| $1,000 getting odds of 100 to so, and in
a few instances accepting even money

Volunteers Complain of Il1-treatment
at Manila.

Pueblo, Colo, Nov. 11.-Todays issue
OF. the Chieftain contains a lengthy pro-
test against being required to remain
longer in the service at Manila, signed
by a number of volunteers. The pro-
test says that since landing on Luzon
the men have not eaten a decent meal
unless they paid for it out of their own
cash, and that on Aug. Is, at the bat
tie of Manila, the men charged upon
Spanish trenches when they were so
weak from constant hunger that they
could hardly carry their ammunition,
and declares that had the Spanish
forces remained in their trenches they
would have had little trouble in dis
patching the attacking force, so utterly
exhausted We're the men from continu-
Gus duty and weakened from hunger.
The protest continues:
As true Americans, we, on May 8
last, enlisted in the cause of humanity
We were soon convinced of one fact,
viz: That we did not have to go to
Cuba to find hungry men. In the cause
of humanity we offered our services
and not for the special aggrandizement
of any one, two or three men.

SPANIARDS MALTREATED.
Distressing Stories of Disease and
Death In Cuba.

New York, Nov IA dispatch TO the
Herald from Santiago de Cuba says: The
Spaniards are evacuating the Holguin dis
trict rapidly. -Four thousand men on
board two vessels left last week. Three
more vessels will take the balance.
There has been a total disregar% of the
comfort and health of the soldiers. OF
the soldiers at Santiago, 80 per cent
are certainly doomed.
The hospital ship is taking smallpox
cases and men suffering from dysentery
and fevers. Bad food poor grounds and
the lack of medical attention make the
lot of the returning Spaniards pitiful and
disgraceful to the government allowing
it. There have been 10 deaths of soldiers
on the wharf in Gibara. in one day.
The efforts of the men to reach the
transports cause deaths daily The bodies
are buried in the bay and credited to the
transportation company as passengers.
Evacuation of Puerto Principe will oc-
cur at an early date Preparations for it
have been completed. The Spaniards
have moved to Nuevitas, where trans
ports await them.
The situation there will make the task
of the government the most difficult on
the island. Revolutionary Cubans hold a
most hostile attitude toward American
control They think they should have
the highest Offices. News from Man
zanillo states that preparations are COM
plete for garrisoning the small towns in
the Manzanillo district. A battalion will
be stationed in Bayamo.

sILVER ISSUE DEAD.
Wall Street Spectators Gamble On
This Belief.

New York, Nov. n.-Bradstreet'
financial review tomorrow will say; As
a result of the congressional elections,
which are construed as meaning that
the free silver issue will disappear, the
securities market in the latter part of
the week developed great activity and
decided strength.
The features we're the large dealings
in bonds and heavy buying of both
stocks and bonds for foreign account.
Trading in bonds at the. New York
stock exchange has attained the larg
est proportions ever known, and While
a good deal Of it is no doubt due to
speculative purchases, it is conceded
that the investment demand, which
has been in evidence for some time
past, has received a decided impetus.
The apparent appetite of London and
the continent for American securities is
attributed directly to the elections on
Tuesday, and the belief that sound cur
rency legislation is in sight. 1t is the
more remarkable because the strained
condition of foreign international poll
tics keeps the European stock markets
dull and depressed, While the money
markets, while a little less uneasy, are
still high The foreign purchasing of
stocks assumed sufficient proportions to
cause a sharp decline in rates of eX--
change here. This keeps up the buy
ing of time drafts on London for in
vestment, or rather for the purpose
of carrying them on loans, which can
be obtained here at 215 per cent. In
some quarters there is, however, an
idea that active speculation and the
probable further expansion of the
country's trade viii result in a higher
money market, and this is regarded as
one Of the obstacles to the continuance
of an active and excited speculation.
Attention is also paid to the possibility
Of foreign diplomatic complications
arising in connection with the Philip
pines question.
Apart from these matters, the devel-
opments of the week have generally
been favorable, railroad earnings show
ing continued increases, while the roads
are carrying an enormous tonnage, and
| complain of a scarcity Of cars. The
rate war is obscured some by this fact.

wARsHIP Is AGROUND AT CAT
ISLAND.
Identity of the Vessel Established
Naval Courtmartial Will Be Or
dered-Has Sustained Damage.

Nassau, N. P, Nov. 11.-Wreckers
have brought stores from the stranded
vessel off Cat island which establishes
beyond doubt that she is the Infanta
Maria Teresa.
AS the vessel is looked upon as being
a. derelict, the wreckers claim the right
to seize the stores which can be saved.
They report that the water is up to
her between decks that she has list
to starboard, which side is damaged,
and that she is dismantled. The vessel
lies between two reefs, on smooth
bottom, and has her anchor out.
The British admiralty is going to take
possession of the Maria Teresa as a
derelict The American consul has
protested against this course, claiming
everything, less the salvage. The
steamer Antillia is leaving here for Cat
island with customs officers and police
on board.
Opinions differ as to the chance Of
saving the cruiser Although she has
been aground since Thursday, the Ma
ria. Teresa rests in an easy position, and
the weather is moderate.
Washington Nov. 1.-THE officials at
the navy department were interested
in the news from Nassau Identifying
clearly the steamship lying OIL CdI 1871
and as the Maria Teresa. The legal
status of the vessel has been considered
cursorily, and in the opinion of the de-
partment, the title of the United States
to her is unimpaired Notwithstanding
| that it was necessary to abandon her
! for a time.
From the account received, it is fear
| ed that the damage to the vessel sus-
| tanned through the storm and the prob
able pounding upon the coral reefs out
lining Cat island added to the wounds
received by the ship in action when she
was sunk originally, are Sufficient to
render her entirely valueless.
The navy department has decided
that a court of inquiry shall be held to
determine whether the abandonment
of the Teresa at sea was justifiable,
and, if not, who was responsible.
The report that the water in the hull
was up between decks, taken in con-
nection with the fact that the vessel
was rolling when abandoned, is believed
to make out a very favorable case for
the people aboard the Teresa, unless 1t
is shown that this great volume of
water was admitted through injury
sustained on the coral reefs at Cat ISL
and after the vessel was abandoned.

SLAUGHTERED A WHOLE FAMILY
KENTUCKY FIEND MURDERED
HIS WIFE'S RELATIVES.
Resisted Arrest, But Was Finally
Captured and May Be Lynchsd-
Fatally Wounded Three People.

Glasgow, KY, Nov. 11.-Robert
Brown was arrested under the most
sensational circumstances this after
noon. Last night Brown shot and kill
ed his father-in-law, Lewis Mcclellan,
and seriously wounded his mother-in-
law and sister-in-law. Brown had made
both demands and threats on the Nc
Clellan family. After shooting all
around their home last night, he es-
capped.
TO the surprise of all the survivors
and the wounded relatives, he returned
TO the Mcclellan home this morning,
with the avowed purpose of finishing
the slaughter. Today he shot Mrs. Nc
Clellan and her son and returned to
his farm and fortified himself in his
barn. officers and a large posse sur
rounded the barn, and over 100 shots
were exchanged, Brown opening me
when they approached. He continued
the fusilIade until his ammunition was
exhausted Then the posse proceeded
to light matches to torches, with which
to fire the barn, and Brown threw his
two guns out, also his two pistols, and
jumped, Immediately holding up both
hands and begging piteously for pro-
lection He was Immediately brought
to this city by Deputy Marshal Baiiey
and others, and was very nervous, as
threats of lynching were yelled at him
all along the way into town. In the
fight at the barn, which continued from
morning till afternoon, Sheriff Barlow
was shot through the hand and Dep
uty John Neice through the ear.
All is apparently quiet tonight, but
Brown may be lynched before sunrise.
The Jail is strongly guarded Excite
ment runs high in the neighborhood
where the stricken Mcclellan family
resides. Mrs. Mcclellan and her daugh-
ter Bertha cannot recover. If another
member of the Mcclellan family should
die during the night trouble is expected.

FIERCE DUEL AT VIENNA.
Chevalier de Gniewosz Cut and
Slashed Bv Herr Wolff.

New York, Nov ia dispatch to the
World from London says: The Vienna
correspondent of the Mail telegraphs:
fierce duel between the notorious
Herr Wolff, and the Polish deputy,
Chevalier de Gniewosz, is the sensation
of the hour here. The cause of the duel
was VOLTS remark on Tuesdays sit
ting of the reichsrath that the Poles
are a swarm of parasites, sucking the
life blood Of the Austrian nation.
This insult aroused the anger of the
Polish deputies. When the storm sub
sided De Gneiwosz declared, in behalf
of the Polish party, that it repudiated
with scorn the insults of street cad
like Wolff" Wolff Immediately chal-
lenged De Gneiwosz. The latter select
ed swords, and the duel was fought to-
day under Iife-or-death conditions.
Wolff, a journalist by profession, is
short. slightly built and lame in one leg.
De GneiWosz is tall and stout He was
formerly an officer. When the word of
command was given, the two deputies
began a combat, thrusting and parry
ing with a rapidity which was bewil-
dering. De Gniewosz, carried away by
rage, directed blow after blow at his
adversary. Wolff parted the ex-off1-
GERS wild onslaughts with cool judg-
ment, and within five minutes caught
his rival off his guard and wounded
him in two places. De Gniewosz's head
was cut to the bone, while a part of his
right hand was hanging by the skin.
But in spite of his serious injuries and
the umpire's command to cease, De
GnieWosz followed his adversary, slash
ing at him savagely until his own sec
ondS seized and disarmed him. He was
removed to his office and wrote a lead
ing article
