lively rounds with Sam Bolan. of New York.

was concluded. The bout was to have gone
twenty-five rounds and a. good crowd gath
cred at Music Hall TO witness IT, Dixon
went right after his man in the first round.
but Bolan held his own. The second saw
some warm fighting and the beginning of
the end of the New Yorker. for he came up
groggy in the third and George set about to
finish him. After few moments of fiddling
to get his bearings. the colored boy sent a
hot right and left on the jaw and Bolan
collapsed. He again took his full time to
rise and then came UP with a pronounced
stagger. Dixon was waiting and a neat
swing on the jaw with his left was all that
was necessary to put an end to the bout.
Bolan went down in a heap. but the gong
sounded before the limit was counted. The
New Yorker was out of IL, however, and
the referee gave the bout to Dixon.

from the Coptic at Woo-Sung they were
met by number of Chinese, who bound
cage. In which he was carried to Picking.
On his arrival at the Chinese capital the
doctor was imprisoned In a temple. While
there he was horribly tortured. his body
being burned with hot irons. 1t was given
out by the local authorities that DR.. Yung
Wing was imprisoned because he was be-

SIGNIFICANT TESTIMONY
Addressed in the Cody Trial, at Albany
Yesterday.

Addressed in the Cody Trial at Albany,
Yesterday.
Albany, N. Y, March 6.-The most
significant testimony adduced at the
Cody trial to-day was that of David n.
Carvalho, a handwriting expert, who,
by a chemical test in the presence of
the jury, showed that the record in
the book of the Cooperville church had
been erased and changed and that the
name of Mary Brown, the supposed
wife of Jay Gould, had been written
over a blank space; the word 'illegiti-
mate" changed to Legitimate" and in
the place where the name of the moth
err of the illegitimate child had orig
inally been written was interpolated
the name Jay Gould"
This proof, in connection with the
strong testimony of Mrs. Hoyle, OF
pouses Point, to the effect that the
original Sarah Ann Brown was dead
and that the present Mrs. Angel, the
supposed pretender to the name and
family of Gould was then only niece
of the woman who was mentioned in
the already disputed birth notice. put
the case of the defense in a nearly
hopeless condition.
1t is intended, however, by the de-
tense, to prove that, although basis for
the claim against the GOulds never eX-
listed, Mrs Cody believed that the
merit of her case, having been buoyed
up and encouraged by two lawyers,
William McMurtrie Speer and Amaza
J. Parker, Jr., who assured her that
they were already in possession of
facts similar to those which she
thought she had.
