Ii HUNG FoY WINS A FIGHT.
Chinaman Whips Ed COnnOrr. q
Washington. in Five Rounds.


New York. June IL Hung Foy, the
Chinaman. added another victory to his
credit last night by defeating Ed Connors,
of Washington, in private. 1t was the
CeleStial's third essay in the roped square
since he came East. The match, which
was arranged about 4 week ago, was to
a finish, and kid gloves, weighing about
an ounce were used. The fighters came
together at catch weights. and the bout
was decided in the dancing pavilion OF the
Fairview picnic grounds. Fairview, N ].
AT O'Clock party Of $50 sports got
the tip. and gathered at the rendezvous.
The battle-ground was kept such a pro-
found secret that only the number Of per-
sons mentioned were at the scene OF the
conflict. The ring. which was rather an
impromptu affair. was about eighteen feet
square. and the floor was covered with
sawdust. Four padded posts supported the
ropes, which were not taut and collapsed
every time the combatants bent against
them. .
Lii Hung Foy was dressed in white
trunks and wore yellow shirt, which he
would not take off. saying he was afraid
to expose his breast. Connors. who is
about six feet one inch tall. weighed in the
neighborhood of $50 pounds. He wore the
regulation ring tights and shoes. Foy's
seconds were Marty Martin, his manager:
Charles Weber. and William Howe Con-
nors was handled by Harry Jones. Willie
Roth, and Pete Burns. of Harlem. Julius
Goldstein, an east side sport, was referee.
Foy weighed 151 pounds.
In the fifth round, after. after being
parted by the referee. Ii Hung swung the
right. II was a pretty punch, and caught
Connors flush on the jaw. putting him to
sleep. The round lasted two minutes and
tweleve seconds and it was sometime be-
fore Connors came to.

BLIGHT OF THE PEA CROP.
The Seasons Loss Estimnted by an
Expert mt S3,OOO,OOO,

Baltimore, Nd, June 1.-THE pea pack
in Baltimore and. in fact, in all parts Of
the country will be smaller this year than
it has been for years, and prices for the
| canned product will be considerably ad-
vanced.
Thomas ]. Meehan, a leading canned
goods broker, who has made a careful
study of the situation, said yesterday that
in his experience of thirty-two years he
had never known the pea crop to be as
light as it is this year. In Maryland, he
said, there is not one-third of an average
crop, and he would not be surprised if the
crop would not amount to as much as one
fourth OF an average crop. The shortage
in Maryland was caused by the appearance
of a new beetle. which feeds on pea vines
and pods alone. The beetle bores into a
pea pod and saps the sustenance. The pods
wfll then grow to full size- but the peas
only attain the size of pinheads. Fortu-
nately for Maryland packers. the crop is
light both in New York and the West, and
the result will be that the packers will
not suffer any great loss. Already prices
for the canned product have advanced from
so cents dozen to 30 cents and 81 dozen.
Those farmers who have been fortunate
enough to raise good crops will benefit by
the shortage. All through the season
prices have ruled at least 100 per cent
above the prices paid last year and for
several years. The season is now nearly
over. The early varieties have all been
canned. and this week marrowfats began
coming in. The marrowfat season usually
lasts sixteen days, but Mr.. Meehan said
yesterday that 1t will not last longer than
six days this year.
One effect of the short crop already felt
is the keeping out of circulation a large
amount of money. Mr.. Meehan estimated
that not less than 100000 more money
would have been paid out by the packers
within the last three weeks IL the seasons
pack had been up to the average. This
money would have gone into the hands of
growers, pickers. canmakers. boxmakers.
and to the hands employed In the can
neries. The most of this large sum would
have found its way into the hands Of store
keepers. and the consequence is that all
classes OF persons will feel its effects.

THE OLD WAY
OF Treatirk Dyspepsia and 4aikes'
tiOn by Dieting . Dangerous


OF Treatirk. Dyspepsia an4 11di<ss-
tion by Dieting . Dangerous
'aHd -Useless One.
We say the old way. but really 1t is
very common one at the present time and
many dyspeptics and physicians as well
consider the first step to take In attempt
ing to cure indigestion il to diet, either By
selecting certain foods and rejecting others
or to greatly diminish the quantity usually
taken, In other words the starvation plan
is supposed by many to be the first es-
sential.
The almost certain failure Of the starva-
tion cure has been proven time and again,
but still the moment dyspepsia makes Its
appearance course Of dieting is at once
advised.
All this Is radically wrong 1t is fool
ish and unscientihc to recommend dieting
to a man suffering from dyspepsia, because
indigestion itself staryes every organ,
every nerve. and every hbre In the body.
What the dyspepac, wants is abundant
nutrition, which mPans,i plenty OF good.
wholesome. we'll cookedi food. and some
thing to assist the weak stomach to digest
Stuart's Dyspepsia nBIefs are adapted and
this is the method by which they cure the
worst cases Of dyspepsia, in other words
the patient cots plenty. Of wholesome food
and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest it
for him. In this wat the system Ii nour-
.ished and the overwofke4 stomach rested,
because the tablets viii digest the food
whether the stomach WORKS or not. One Of
these tablets will digest 5000 grains Of

THE PEACH CROP
A TOTAL FAILURE
Discouraging Reports From ALI
Parts of the Country.
Local Commission Men Unable to
Secure the Fruit.
Trees Destroyed by the Severe
Weather of January and
February.

Peaches, if any are received, will be a
luxury in Washington this summer. Peo-
pie of moderate means will be unable to
afford the prices to be demanded for the
luscious fruit.
Local commission merchants claim that
the entire crop was ruined by frosts early
in the spring, and that they are now IN
able to secure the fruit at any price. This
apprehension is not alone confined to
Washington. The cold weather of January
and February had general blighting ef-
feet on the crop, and in several large
growing districts completely destroyed the
trees. Advices from all of the large
growing sections are discouraging. The
following statements have been collected
by local fruit merchant, and show that
the condition of affairs throughout the
country warrants the discouraging report
of the peach crops failure:
J. A. Richardson. Smethbury, Nd, whose
orchards are located on top Of the Blue
Ridge Mountains, and are noted for the
finest crops in the country, says this year S
harvest is a total failure. In 1897 he
shipped 500 carloads.
Charles Z. Dean, Of Marble Hill, Nd,
who Is also in close touch with Southern
Indiana planters, says the output in that
section and also In Kentucky is an en-
tire failure.
In, Hepworth, of Marlborough, N. Y.
in the heart of the Hudson fruit district,
reports very few peaches in that section
this season. The prospects for plums are
fair.
John Alexander & Co., who are large
growers and supply dealers in the Cum
berland Valley, say that there are no
peaches there. Word has been received by
them that there are few In the central
portion of Pennsylvania, and that West
ern New York orchards are promising.
S. E. Read & Bro. basket manufactur-
ers, Of Glendale, DEL, in the well-known
Milford district, put damper on the
prospects from this field by their decided
mo peaches"
E. c. Grover, of Mathis, Tex, places
himself on record by declaring that the
peach and plum crops are both failures
through the whole State because OF the
prolonged cold wave of February last.
The indications for various other fruits
J. c. Harrison Son, nurserymen, Of
Berlin, Nd, say the prospects are not
worth mentioning. Growers report the out
look in West Virginia to be favorable.
r. H. Sinclair. OF the gonesville (Md.)
peacn oeit, says tnere are no peacaee
there. The cold weather killed practically
all the peach buds and one-half Of the
trees There will probably be a half crop
Of plums.
Charles B. Irwin, of Harrisonburg. Va,
in the Shenandoah Valley, declares there
are no peaches in that locality this sea-
son. Very few trees are growing. He will
have, however. a fine crop of apples.
Joseph D. Evans, Of Smyrna. DEL. bas-
kst manufacturer, says there will be some

They will be rather small sized.
At Bells, Tenn, the returns indicate half
crops of peaches and plums.
f. p. Miller, of Lambert, Ga, says there
are no peaches from that section for ship
ment.
