Ugly Story About MaIzour-BuchteI's
Team-Sport.

Jim Jeffords. aspiring heavy
weight, who came out from Cali
fornia, heralded as the worlds
champion. was knocked into Oblivion
by Gus Rubin at New York Tues
day night.
Jeffords' press agents have been
very active for several weeks past.
Dispatches have been sent out broad
cast, telling of his wonderful clever
ness, his fast work and his sledge
hammer blows. In Tuesday nights
battle none of these were in evidence.
He was, in the parlance of the ring
followers, dead easy game" for Ak
ron's giant. The fight was termi-
mated in the fifth round when JEFF
fords was put out of the business
with terrific left straight from the
shoulder. It landed on the point Of
his jaw and lulled him into uncon-
sciousness instantly.
There was lot of slugging in the
first four rounds, and if Jeffords had
not mixed things up so freely he
might have stalled off Ruhlin's
rushes. The latter simply battered
him down after Jefords had gained
a very decieded advantage. Rubin
foored him three times in the fourth
round and put him out early in the
next. Rubin was big favorite in
the betting, 2 to being freely laid on
him.
Gus was the first to enter the ring.
He looked fit. He was accompanied
by his manager and trainer, Billy
Madden and Cockey Boyle, and
Charles Golf and Joe Hurst who
acted as his seconds. Ten minutes
later Jeffords appeared. He had as
seconds "Mysterious Bill" Smith.
Bill Needham, Charles O'Brien and
Harry Tuthill. Jeffords weighed 1872
pounds and Rubin 1870. They were
announced to go 20 rounds under
Marquis of Queensberry rules.
First round-Gus rushed and JEFF
fords sent his left to the body. They
clinched and after they broke JEFF
fords tried twice with his right, but
missed. Jeffords sent his right to
the ear and then to the body. Rubin
clinched and in the breakaway sent
his right to the body. Both were
fighting at close quarters when the
bell rang.
Round 2-Gus led for the head, but
was blocked and they clinched. JEFF
fords rushed, trying left and right
swings for the head, which were
blocked. Jim jabbed his left to the
body and face and then shot his
right to the jaw. Gus jabbed left
to the face. Both began slugging
with Jeffords having the call up to
the bell.
Round 3-Jeffords rushed and Gus
swung wildly. They. exchanged lefts
on the face and then Gus whipped
right and left to the head and
hard right on Jeffords'
nose, which began to bleed. Jeffords
from this blow and Rubin
him. The Californian looked
to be beaten, but he suddenly braced
up and sent couple of right upper
cuts under Ruhlin's chin, which
changed the tide in the Californian's
favor. Rubin was very much used
up at the close of the round.
Round 4-They got to close quar-
ters three times in succession. JEFF
fords was the aggressor. Hard ex-
changes followed, among them be-
ing right upper cut from Jeffords,
which sent Gus back few feet.

a word pledging the party's nomi-

reducing the compensation of county
officials. It would have made no
difference, however, even if such a
declaration had been Incorporated in
the platform, for in spite of the fact
that the Republican platform two
years ago declared in favor of lower
salaries, the Republican officials
elected thereon, with the single
exception of Senator Alexander, did
everything possible to defeat a bill

And after the court house officials

thousands of dollars which Probate
Judge Anderson and Clerk Hershey
are spending upon their private
machines to effect their reelection
come from? Senator Alexander
could tell if he would. He would say
that the defeat of the Russell salary
bill enabled these officials to
accumulate their enormous cam

people. Every taxpayer of Summit

the salaries of county officials should
vote against the officials who worked

SENATOR HANNA's bold defense
of trusts, in fiat contradiction of his
party's platforms, will do as much as
any other influence to defeat Judge
Nash. If the record of the Admin
istration in its nearly four years of
power-in which it has done nothing
against the trusts but everything to
encourage them, has not been suffi-
cient to convince all the voters that
the opposition to trusts as expressed
in Republican platforms is a sham
and fraud, the stupid frankness of
Mr.. Hanna's recent utterances ought
to carry absolute conviction. Han
mas speeches simply emphasize the
fact that there is but one party before
the people today upon which the
people can rely for relief from the
trust evil. 1t is the Democratic
party. Why not support its nomi-

MONTANAM MINING STOCK EXCHANGE

Nearly everyone you talk with is of the
opinion that a mining stock exchange
would he a good thing for Butte, but
when they are confronted with a PROPOSE
ton to join IN such an organization, and
to put up the necessary money to make
it a success financially, it is another mat
ter. We all know that such an institution
would do we'll, and be of immense benefit
to the greatest mining camp on e arth,
but just at the present time 1T seems out
of the question, and about the best thing
that can be done just now is what we
have decided to put in force. We have
large. centrally located offices with plenty
of blackboard space, and we propose to
list mining stocks of all sections, on the
same lines as that conducted by a regu-
laTly organized mining stock exchange.
You can list your offers to buy and sell in
exactly the same manner as O would on
a mining exchange. A small commission
will be charged only when sales are
made. Until an exchange is finally or
canned we are sure that spectators will
find our methods of doing business en-
tirely satisfactory. The HeWett-Sisley
Company, Al S. Broadway, Butte.

The session was devoted to the trans

RECEIVED SEVERE INJURIES

An accident occurred this forenoon at
ing company by which w. o. Ferguson,
the crane man, was severely burned and
the electric apparatus by which the crane
is operated badly damaged.
A charge of Stag was being drawn from
one of the surfaces into a pot. Usually
and to settle it a bucket of cold water
is judiciously used to settle it. 1t is con-
sidered a dangerous practice, however.
The Stag was boiling over as usual this
morning when one of the Austrians en-
ployed in dumping the Stag, seized a big
icicle which had fallen from the roof of
the building and threw it into the pot
from a safe distance. Instantly there
was a terrific explosion and the Stag flew
in all directions. The electric crane in
charge of Mr.. Ferguson was directly
overhead and the metal apparently eN-
pended it's force in hat direction. Mr..
Ferguson was struck on the back and
head by the hot metal, burning his cloth
ing from his body. His neck and the
back of his head were terribly burned.
The electric machinery was greatly dam
aged. The building also caught fire, but
the blaze was subdued by the employees
in a short time. Owing to the damage to
the machinery the men were laid Off UNI
til it can be repaired.
Ferguson was removed to Wells hos
pital where he is resting easily this
Afternoon.

MORE RATE

The proposition which the Santa Fe
n Southern Pacific propose 70 carry out
toward delegates to the National Educa-
tional association is quite likely to re
suit in a war of rates By other lines.
These roads insist on an arbitrary rate OF
s12 20 ia be added 10 the regular round
trip fare if the passenger goes by way
Of the Santa Fe and returns by way Of
Portland. If the passenger goes by way
of the Ogden & Sacramento and returns
by way of Portland an arbitrary rate OF
$17.5 80 is to be added to the regular round
trip fare. The regular agreed rate from
St. Paul. Minneapolis or Chicago to Los
Angeles for that occasion is $64 and to
this fare should be added the arbltrarles
demanded by the Southern roads.

RIO GRANDE WESTERN EARNINGS,

Rio Grande Western gross earnings
for the second week in March We're made
public yesterday. The amount is $59, 700,
an increase over the same week last year
of Sc. 100. The earnings for the first two
weeks of the month foot up $100, 900, an
increase of Sc, 700 over the first two weeks
of March last year. These figures, taken
with the great loss of traffic by snow
bound or delayed connections, and the
fact that March is one of the worst
months for earnings, proves beyond a
doubt that the Westerns local business
is steadily gaining.

MAY MAKE A $40 A

The officials of the 500 line do not take
kindly to the cut in second-class fares to
the Pacific coast, as announced by the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern,
and while they nave met this rate of S25,
they are said to be preparing, in connec-
ton with the Canadian Pacific, to drop
this figure out of sight n make a SO
rate. 1t is apparently the beginning of a
resumption of the rates In vogue last
year. Immediate point rates will be
based on the $25 rate to the coast. and
this Is expected to drive the Northern Pa
cifc and Great Northern to a further re-
duction.
