THE HOUSE

Washington, May 25-The house devoted two hours today to the consideration of the Alaskan civil government bill without completing it. The session from noon till adjournment was devoted, under the rule, to private pension bills. MT. Talbert of South Carolina, who abandoned obstruc- tive tactics a few weeks ago, was again in evidence today. After 190 bills had been favorably acted upon by the committee of the whole, Mr. Talbert blocked this pass age in the house with the point of no quorum. MT. Talbert made an assault up- on the manner in which the pension bills were rushed through. He cited the case of Arthur Dinsmore, a $1, 800 department clerk for whose benefit congress recently passed a bill increasing his pension from $24 to SIP per month. Congress, he said, was so ashamed of its outrageous action after 1t discovered what had been done that the bill was recalled from the president after it had gone to him for his signature.
 Dinsmore was a private in the Third Michigan infantry. Mr. Talbert charged that in addition to his government salary and pension he was drawing $1OO month as secretary of one of the members of the invalid pension committee of the house. S. w. Smith of Michigan.
 Mir Gardner of Michigan, who knew MT. Dinsmore personally, gave the house a graphic description of his suffering. Every dollar of his pension money, $24 per month, he said went to pay doctors bills.
 Among the bills favorably acted upon to- day were the senate bills to pension the widow of the late Captain Gridley who commanded the Olympia in the battle at Manila to $50 per month; the widow of the late Commodore R. w. Meade at $40 per month, and the widow of the late General M. F. Force of Ohio at $50 per month. The latter case is a very pathetic one. General Force was the republican candidate for governor of Ohio in 1873 when Allen was elected Subsequently he was minister to France.
 Since his death Mrs Force has fallen in- to destitute circumstances and is now en- gagged in truck farming near Cincinnati.

MRS. DAVIS WRITES

Louisville, May 25.-Judge H. w. Bruce, chairman of the invitation committee of the reunion, has received the following letter from Mrs. Davis, widow of Jeffer- son Davis:
 My Dear Sir:-Your kind invitation on the part of the United Confederate Veter- ans has been received, and regret to say that my health is so uncertain that can not hope to have the pleasure of being with you, great as it would be to me. However, the date set for 1t has given me great comfort in the assurance 1t con- veys that my husbands friends and com rades desire to hold him in affectionate and reverent memory.
 1T wish with all my heart I could go to meet our friends, but in all events send my loving sympathy, and our two children will be present with you, my daughter. Mrs. I. A. Hayes, and my grand daughter, Miss Varina Hayes.
 With affectionate messages to our vet. erans, I am very cordially yours.

CANS IS A WINNER
Put the Finishing Punch to Hawkins in
 Two Rounds

New York, May 25-Joe Cans of Balti- more knocked out Dan Hawkins of Califor- mia at the Broadway Athletic club tonight in two rounds of the fastest fighting ever seen in the club house. The men were scheduled to go twenty-five rounds at 133 pounds. Hawkins assumed the aggres- sive at once and sailod in on his man with both hands. He smashed the Baltimore man with left hook to the chin just after they put up their hands and dropped him. It looked as if the affair was all over, but Cans took the count of nine and got to his feet. Hawkins fought him fast, but Cans was there with his blocks, and in a fierce mix up at the ropes sent in right swing to the jaw that hoored Hawkins. Again 1t seemed that the result was reached. Flaw kns was certainly out but struggled to his feet at the count of nine and the fight ing was furious to the bell.
 In the second round the men continued their rapid pace. Cans had Hawkins gauged, however, and easily avoided his terrible Iushes and swings, and after one minute and fifteen seconds of slugging Cans landed the punch that did the trick.

GREAT BROOKLYN
 HANDICAP TODAY Every Probability of a Very
 Heavy Track. ETHELBERT HE FAVORlTE On Account of His Love for the Mud He Will be Backed to a Fin- ish-Jean Beraud Comes
 Next

New York, May 25-There is every prob- ability of a heavy track for the Brooklyn Handicap, which is to be run at Gravesend track tomorrow afternoon.
 The soil dries fast, but so much water has fallen that it seems impossible for it to dry out sufficiently to make the going even fair. In consequence mud horses will have the call and it may be there will be some added ones at post time. The entries sent out this afternoon with jockies are:
 Imp (Clawson), 12S; Jean Beraud (Turner), 127; Ethelbert (Maher), 127; Batten (Wink- field), 124; Kinley Mack (McCue), 122; Prince McClurg -, 118; Box (O'Conner), 11S; Raffaello (Jenkins), 119; Lothorio (Shaw), 107 The Kentuckian (--), 106; Latson Gittlefield), 103; Wait Not (Burns), 103; Survivor (Bullman), 100; Knight of the Gar ter (Jack), 100; Herbert (MitchelD, 9S; Strathcona (rIenry), 93; Petruchio tnausch), 90; Approval (Spencer), 114
 Owing to the known fondness for mud of the Metropolitan Handicap winner, Etliel bert, and the fine trial he went yesterday, he is likely to be one of the strongest favor ties ever sent to the post in this event. He won handily at mile, and showed that he was able to go on at any disance.
 Jean Beraud Second Favorite
 Next in favor to Ethelbert probably will come his great rival, Jean Beraud. They will come together at exactly the same weights It will be his first outing this year, but he has been trained to the hour, and is fit to run for his life
 Imp is the top weight, and if her owners are right she has no chance whatever. They have always said that she does not like heavy track and that has been their excuse when she has been beaten by com mon cattle in wet weather.
 Batten is a good one, who has made record for himself in the past, and will have some following.
 Among the pliddleweights there Is Ap proval, who did fast trial yesterday and made his owner think he had a chance to win. But he ran into the fence and cut himself little, which may or may not in- terfere with his running tomorrow Box Is always dangerous if he can be got off in time to join his field, and as it will be a large one tomorrow, and it is not among the unlikely things that the starter will decline to hold the lot very long for him. Then there are lot of lightweights which entered because the going is bad, and long delays at the post may result in the weights throwing them on the top of the list.

strange Rumors in Circulation

London, May 26.-The approach of the general election has put into circulation strange rumors. Among these is one pub lished by the Daily Express which says this morning:
 'It is more than whispered that a Rose berry Chamberlain coalition will take place, the new party to fulfill the Roseber- ry formula as before 1885.
 Lord Roseberry's aspirations. are to see liberalism separated from so-called little Englishism,' and MT. Chamberlain is to be- come prime minister. Should this coali- tion result, an exceedingly lively election will occur"

TO SUPPRESS BOXERS"
United States Government Takes a
 Hand in the Work

Washington, May 25.-The United States government has taken hand in the sup pression of the Boxers in China. Minis ter Conger has been instructed by the state department to inform the Chinese govern ment that the government of the United States expects to stamp out promptly and thoroughly this society and to provide proper guarantees for the maintenance of peace and order and the protection of life and property of Americans in China, all now threatened by the operations of the Boxers"
 There is no indication in the instructions as to the course that will be pursued by the United Statets in case the Chinese gov- ernment fails to observe the warning oon- veyed in this communication. MT Conger is acting on parallel lines with the repre- sentatives of every European power at the Chinese court, but has not joined in any concert of action.
