ST. LOUIS. Dec. 14-In the preliminary
bout preceding the star contest between
Tommy White, the 126-pound champion of
the world, and kid" Broad, of Cleveland,
at the St. Louis Athletic Club tonight,
Henry Neise, of st. Louis, and Fred Bel
lerson, reputed TO be the heavyweight
champion of Utah, went on for fifteen
rounds. Neise was long and lank, while
Bellerson was fat. their combined weight
approximating four hundred pounds. The
first five rounds proved a comedy of err
rors. The performance of the men was so
grotesque that roars of laughter greeted
their efforts. No serious harm was done I'M

when. after a heavy exchange of blows,
Neise was foored by a hard right hook to

the Utah man, who, seeing his advantage,
planted a terrific right-hand swing to the
head, bringing Neise to the floor, his head
striking with a thud. He was carried from
the ring In an unconscious state and physi-
clans summoned. White and Broad then en-
tered the ring and, after fighting two
rounds, with honorS even, were stopped by
the police. who announced that Neise was
dead. Tim Hurst and Manager Charles w.

KINSLEY STILL TALKING.
Handwriting Expert Holds the
Boards I'm Molineux Trial.

NEW YORK, Dec. 14.-To-day's proceed
ing in the trial of Roland B. Molineux
for the murder of Mrs. Katherine j. Ad-
ans was largely devoted to a hearing of
the testimony of William ]. Kinsley, the
handwriting expert. Mr.. Weeks, in his
cross-examination, asked Mr.. Kinsley If he
had given all of the reasons why the
Barnet and Cornish" letters, the admit
ted handwriting specimens of the defend
ant, and the poison package addresses must
have been written by one individual. The
expert replied in the negative and. reply
ing to another question, proceeded to en-
large upon the subject. Mr.. Weeks sud-
denly changed his mind as the expert
commenced to discuss new features of the
peculiarities of the poison package ad-
dresses and attempted to shift the line of
questioning by calling attention to the fact
that the witness had forgotten some of
the points after studying the case for near
ly a year at the rate of SIS per day.
1t is thought that when the cross-ex-
animation of Mr.. Kinsley by Mr.. Weeks
is completed the next step taken by the
State will be the introduction of medical
testimony for the purpose of proving that
the poison from the bromo-seltzer bottle
in reality caused the death of Mrs. Adams.

has again sent to the Senate the treaty
between the United States and Great
Britain relating to the tenure and DISPOSE
ton of real estate and personal property,
which was signed on the I'd of March last
and which reached the Senate too late
for action at the last session of Congress.
The treaty provides that where, on the
death of any person holding real property
within the territories of one of the con-
tracing parties, such property would by
the law OF the land pass to a citizen or a

stances render it necessary"

subjects of each of the contracting par
ties shall have full power to dispose OF
their personal property within the terri

citizens or subjects of the other contract
ing party, whether resident or nonresident,
shall succeed to their said personal proper
~ and may take possession thereon either
by themselves or by others acting FOR
them and dispose of the same at their
pleasure, paying such duties only as the
citizens or subjects of the country where
the property lies shall be liable to pay in
like cases.
The treaty is not to apply to any OF the
colonies or possessions of Great Britain
except on due notice, and the same pro-
vision is made as to any territory or terri
tories pertaining to or occupied and gov
erned by the United States beyond the
seas.
Article 5 reads: "Ina all that concerns the
right of acquiring or possessing or dis
posing of every kind of property, real or
personal, citizens or subjects of each of the
high contracting parties shall in the
dominions of the other enjoy the rights
which may be accorded to the citizens or
subjects of the most favored nations

LAID ON THE TABLE.
Pettfgrew's Resolution Concerning
RECOGNITION of FiIipinOs.

WASHINGTON, Dec. H.-The Senate to-
day, by a decisive vote and practically
without discussion, laid on the table the
Pettigrew resolution of inquiry as to
whether or not the United States forces
had recognized the Filipino insurgents flag
and had turned over Spanish soldiers to the
insurgents. Before the vote was taken Mr..
Pettigrew said his only purpose was to as
certain whether certain newspaper state
ments concerning the recognition given Ag-
uinaldo's forces by our fleet in Manila bay,
in the summer of 1898, were true. He said
the statement had been made repeatedly
that vessels bearing the Philippine flag had
passed in and out of the harbor at that
time, and that the flag had been saluted on
different occasions by the American forces.
He had never seen a contradiction or this
report, and he considered 1T important to
know whether IL was based upon fact. he
had also seen frequent statements to the
effect that at one time our forces had
turned over prisoners taken in a battle on
Subig bay to the Filipinos. If this was
true, he and many others would like to
know the facts and the circumstances UNI
der which they occurred.
Mr.. Chandler moved to lay the resolu-
ton on the table, and it was carried, Al to
20. as follows:
Yeas-Aldrich, Allison, Beveridge, Carter,
Chandler, Clark CWyoming), Deboe, De-
pew, Elkins, Fairbanks, Foraker, Foster,

ate agreed to the House resolution for a

out of respect to the memory OF the late
Representative Danford, of Ohio.

HAVANA, Dec. H-Governor General
Brooke is indignant at the reports cabled
from Washington which represent him as
| having protested against the order of the
President relieving him Of the military gov
ernorship of Cuba. He says: 81 am a sol
der and obey orders. I would direct the
arrest of any officer who protested against
my order, and would always render to a
superior authority the respect which I
would exact from a subordinate"
His friends. however. express the opinion
that he has not been treated with due con-
sideration. They think some intimation
should have been given him of the contem-
plated change. whereas. as a matter of
fact, the first knowledge he had that he
was to be removed and succeeded by Major
General Wood was derived from newspaper
dispatches.
The Patria says: 1.-THE administration OF
General Wood at. Santiago has been
thought well of by Cubans of all grades. II
must also be admitted that he governed the
most sensitive and independent section OF
the island without once offending the dig
nifty Of the inhabitants. He understood the
exigencies of the situation and recognized
the rights of the people"
The Lucha says: Judging from the past
experience of General Wood, he will make
an excellent governor general. Cuba has
cause for self-congratulation. In Santiago
his policy was one Of harmony. He was
the first to promulgate habess corpus In a
country where the embers Of international
hate are still smoldering. a man OF his
clear intelligence may be expected to solve
prudently many complicated political prob
lems."
The Nuevo Pals says: Those who know
General Wood best assert that he Is a
brave soldier and a thorough statesman
as we'll"
The members of General Brooke's adj
visory cabinet to-day rendered their res
ignations but were asked to remain in Of

May Induce Other. to Strike.

TRENTON. n. j., Dec. 14.-An important
decision was rendered by Vice Chancellor
Reed to-day in the case of the Cumberland
Glass Manufacturing Company. of Bridge
ton, against the Glass Blowers Association
of the United States and Canada. Dennis
A. Hayes, president. and others. The suit
grew out of the glass blowers strike at
Bridgeton last March, and which has since
been amicably settled. The Cumberland
Glass. Manufacturing Company sought to
enjoin the defendants from the part they
were taking in the strike. The vice
chancellor. in his opinion. holds that a
combination TO strike or TO induce others
to strike is made Lawful under a New Jer-
sey statute. provided the means used be
those Of persuasion and not of coercion.
