TRANSPORT THOMAS.


San Francisco, Aug. 31.-The United
States transport Thomas has arrived
from the orient with a large num-
Der Of sick and wounded soldiers,
marines and officers Some of the
men who are in the ships hospital
are from the battlefield at Tien Tsin
and among these is Capt. Edwin V.
Bookmiler, of the Ninth United
States infantry, who fell in the adj
vance of the American forces on the
Chinese works. 4 large number of
the sick and wounded are from the
various Manila commands and the
Chinese contingent is made up mostly
of members of the Ninth infantry and
the first battalion of marines. Capt.
Bookmiller says that the fight in
which the Americans engaged was
a terrible strain on the soldiers and
that for fully "A hours the men were
exposed to heavy crossfre from an
L-shaped entrenchment which faced
a low bit of ground.
The Thomas brought back 1877 dis
charged soldiers, 81 prisoners and five
stowaways who were discovered soon
after the vessel left Yokohama.

AFRO.AMERICAN COUNCIL.


indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 31.-The Ma

yesterday Bishop Alexander Walters,
of New Jersey, president. The fol-
lowing resolutions were adopted.
Resolved, That We urge the lynching
record upon the consideration of the
president Of the United States, who, In
his last message, asked congress to enact
law to protect foreigners residing In
this country from lynching, and that we
ask the president of the United States
to use his best offices to secure the same
measure of protection for citizens of the
United States which the contemplated
legislation will extend to foreigners.
Resolved, liat we heartily approve a
gradual and healthfu migration OF col
ored citizens from the congesled districts
of the south and from the densely popu-
lated metropolitan centers of the north,
to the fertile and undeveoped territory
of the west, In order that the Afro
American race may become an indls-
| pensabe factor In the agricultural de-
| yelopment of the country.

INC CDnfe,t ,,sneetrd

New YORK, Aug. 5).--After iaef-
fectual attempts ty different matca-
makers for the PAST two years TO get
James j. Corbe;; and Charles ("kia"
McCoy together, Manager Kennel,
OF the Twentieth Century Athletic
club, has at last succeeded in arrang-
ing a match between the two men
who are conceded to be the cleyerest
and shiftiest artists of the prize ring.
Corbett and McCoy are to do battle
tonight at Madison Square galoen.
They finished their training for the
battle yesterday. Mccoy put on the
finishing touches of his preparation
ut Saratoga and announced at the
conclusion of his days work that he
was fit to fight. lie weights ten
pounds more than he ever has before
and is satisfied if he is beaten it will
not be due to lack OF condition.
Corbett, who has been conditioning
himself at Bath beach, put few fin
ishing touches to his training yester-
day, with little light sparring and
bag punching. He will devote to-day
to a good rest and will leave for the
scene of battle this afternoon.
The betting on the result of the
fight does not appear to be at all live
ly. On the contrary the admirers Of
the pugiists are holding off for a
slight advantage in the way of odds.
A few wagers have been placed, and
the leading pugilistic judges are
about evenly divided regarding the
chances of these two scientific pugil-
lists. Many Mccoy men want odds and
the betting may be 10 to $ at the
ringside. AT present 1t is even money.
The coming fight was the sole
topic of conversation in the various
sporting resorts last night, and each
Of the pugiIsts seemed to have many
warm friends 1t was agreed on all
Gdes that the contest ought to be
not only the prettiest ever seen in
the ring, but one Of the most eXcit-
Ing.
