Has Spent Twenty-one Years in
Prison.
Dies Moines, March 2.-The joint
committee on pardons has acted fa-
vorably on the application OF Christian
Moelchcn for pardon. Moelchen has
been in the prison at Anamosa for
stwcnty-one years. His case is quite
remarkable one. He was sent up on
purely circumstanlial evidence. He
had recently come TO this country from
Germany, and when his uncle with
whom he lived, was found dead, Moei
chen was arrested under most suspi-
cious circumstances. He WAS poorly
defended. being poor. and convicted. j.
v. Farmer. now of Montezunia and a
Prominent business man Was fifteen
years ago q guard at Anamosa, ard
became acquainted With Moelchell, who
mas always been 4 model prisoner ana
always protested his innocence.
Farmer has always believed him TO be
an innocen, man, and has latterly
made Investigations which added 10
the conviction. He came TO Des Moines,
appeared before the joint committee
and urged that the man ought 10 be
given his freedom. that he was proba
| bly, innocent, and if guilty has been
we'll punished. The committee took
1 this view and recommended the par

EASY FOR THE "KID."
HE BEATS MAHER AT TIE GAME.
Doing the Irish Champion" Up in Five
Rounds with Neatness and
Dispatch.


New York. Jan. 2.-"Kid'' Mccoy
again placed himself in the champion
ship class by defeating Peter Maher in
a brisk, well-fought, battle OF tive
rounds before the COney Island Ath-
letic club yesterday afternoon. The
fight was scheduled to last twenty-five
rounds, and the purse was to have
been $4,000, but the attendance was
not as large as had been expected, and
before the fight was begun the princl-
pals agreed that the winner should
receive the gross gate receipts Both
men were apparently in perfect con-
dition and both were received on their
appearance with loud applause. The
Kid made trouble at the outset by
insisting on wearing a pair OF old
gloves, but the referee, White, was OBJ
durate and Mccoy gave lin.
Mccoy knocked Maher down in the
first round. The, round was all Nc
COy'S in spite of the fact that Maher
rushed him once to his (McCoy's) cor
ner, the Kid clever1y getting away.
In the second rounG the Kid mixed up
with Peter and got the worst of it,
but then stepped back and sent Peter
to his knees with one Oh the jaw. The
gong was highly welcome to Maher.
In the third round Pete rushed the Kid
to the ropes, but got nothing for his
trouble except a left Oh the jaw-his
own jaw After that Mccoy hit
Maher when and where he pleased for
the balance of the round.
The fourth round was Makers. He
got in a hard one on the Kids face
and in the following mix-up came out
even just as the round closed he hit
the Kid another bad one in the face.
When the fifth round began it was
plain that the Kid was wary, having
taken his fourth round lesson to heart
Still Peter got a few hard ones at the
start. Then Mccoy landed left and
right ON the jaw. Peter wavered and
Mccoy sent another right which fell a
