ANOTHER FAKE FIG TIT.
Handler Goes Against Gardner in Q
 Crippled Condition.

New York, Feb 12.--George- Gardiner of Lowell, Mass, and Jimmy Handler of Newark N. J., met at the Hercules A. C., Brooklyn, tonight and were scheduled to box twenty-five rounds at 152 pounds. Gardiner won in the third round by practically knocking out Handler with right swing on the jaw. Handlers seconds threw up the sponge. Handler at first was the favorite at 10 to ', but after the weighing-in certain persons placed money on Gardiner at 5 to 4. When the men had shaped for the opening round it was seen that Handler limped, and it was learned that he had been suffering from a bruise on his left tibia. There was miniature riot at the conclusion of the bout. Cries of "Fake!'' were heard on all sides. The announcer declared all bets off, but sub sequently this decision was reversed and there was another uproar.
 An extra bout between Billy Gardiner of Lowell and Lew Morgan of Wales lasted a little over minute. Gardiner won.

commissions would be offered to militia officers, to the colonies and to the uni versailles. At present, thefspeaker fur ther pointed out, there were 109,000 regulars in the country, and the in crease was anticipated to be 30,o00. There are now 900 men in the aux Hilary forces and it was estimated the increase would be 50,000 men. So, al- together, the country would soon have at least 517,000 men, and MT. Wyndham anticipated that the number would be nearer 600,000 than half a million.
 MT Wyndham's announcement that commissions in the regular army would be offered to the colonies was received with great cheering.
 Confidence in the Navy.
 During the course of his remark MT. Wyndham referred to the governments s confidence in the power and splendid efficiency of the fleet, saying 1t was never greater or more legitimate than now. But, in case of the fear of inva- sion, the garrisoning of the coast towns would devolve on the auxiliary forces, as it would be the first duty of the fleet to be off the enemy's coast, or face to face with the enemy.
 No Spirit of Panic.
 The government, MT. Wyndham then said, was not making an appeal for money and men in a spirit of panic. The risk was not very much nearer than a year ago. But it had increased in exact proportion to the reduction of the home military defence, which suf- tn ju G nr an increase of the resources for home defense.
 The Cost.
 The liberal leader, Sir Henry Camp Zimmerman, who followed, said he had heard of the great scheme for the administration of a great army, but he had not heard a single figure mentioned as to the cost thereof, nor even in re- gard to the particular vote. How much of the money required was due to the present war.
 To this question MT. Wyndham re- piled: -Four hundred and twenty thou hand pounds
 Opposition Ready to Give All Help.
 Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman said he could not be expected to pronounce an opinion upon the scheme suddenly but, he added, he believed that nine- tenths of his hearers were ready to do almost anything for the purpose of the present war, but would like to regard 1t as a war measure alone, leaving the question of the future increase and re- open for future discus sion. H It was explained in the Hobbies of the house of commons that MT. Wyndham meant to convey that all the supple mentary estimates asked for were due to the war, except G420,000 required for the new scheme to close the financial year of March 31.
 The secretary of state for war, Lord Lansdowne, furnished the house of ords with a statement similar to that If MT. Wyndham. The Prince of Wales and the Duke of Cambridge were inter- ested listeners in the house of lords. Lord Lansdowne said there were about L70,0 900 reservists, between the age of twenty-five and forty, who had served with the colors. whom the government proposed to bring into the field.

 Bond Made Unfversal.

Washington, Feb. 12.--An important bill was passed by the house to-day which makes universally applicable the law that now permits the transit of goods in bond through certain ports of the United States.

The bill also repeals the law of March 1, 1895, prohibiting the shipment of goods in bond to the Mexican free zone, The latter provision was fought by MT. Stephens of Texas. The remainder of the day was occupied in passing the private pension bills favorably acted upon at last Friday nights session, and in District of Columbia legislation,

This was decided at meeting of the directors of the ath- letic association this evening" A resolu- ton of thanks was extended to Yale for the offer.

BRYTAIN,S NEW MILITARY SCHEME
Explained in the COmmons-A Home
 Army of 600, 900 Men.

London, Feb. 12.-The house of com- mons was crowded to-day in anticipa- ton of the statement of George Wydnham, parliamentary secretary of the war office, in regard to army measures. MT. Wyndham rose, amidst cheers, when the house went into committee on supply, and said that he did not propose to deal with the question of the prosecution of the war, but would proceed immediate ly to outline other military measures necessary for placing home defence on a satisfactory footing. The government, he continued had not even considered the question of compulsory service, which was entirely unnecessary in view of the activity of recruiting for the auxiliary forces. Since the war 10000 recruits had joined under the ex- isting conditions and, he pointed out, if improved facilities were offered he an ticipated that the voluntary auxiliary forces, If their efficiency was increased, would easily suffice for passive defence and to garrison the seaports and other positions They might even be qualified for undertaking more onerous duties.
 To Embody Whole Militia.
 The government, MT. Wyndham said, proposed to put the pay of the militia on the same scale as the regulars and embody the whole militia. During the spriua and summer the volunteer arttl- lery would be re-armed and a higher capitation grant would be given the volunteers coupled with the demand for higher efficiency. A mounted infantry volunteer corps would be formed and the yeomanry would be treated on the same broad principles. The artillery, army service corps and engineers neces- sary for two additional corps would be raised forthwith, namely thirty-six field batteries and seven horse batteries The speaker also said it had been decided to raise twelve additional infantry bat taliona.
 To Expand Cavalry Force.
 Continuing, MT. Wyndham said the existing cavalry forces would also be expanded by seven regiments and that

GEN. SKATER IN THE CITY
THE GUEST YESTERDAY OF MAJOH
 GEORGE F. ALBEE.

War Further Than to Say We Arc Friends of Both sides-Leaves for New York This Morning.
 | Major General Shafter was in New Haven all day yesterday as guest of Major George E. Albee at 324 Howard avenue. He arrived in New Haven
 about 10 o'clock and spent very quiet
 day here, very few people knowing he was in the city. General shafter was
 here for no purpose other than pleasure, and the visit to Major Albee was a brief one as General Shafter will re- turn to New York early this morning and from there he will go direct to San Francisco, where he will assume conl~ mand of the army in the west He left
 his post in San Francisco to accom- pany the body of General Lawton, who
 was buried in Washington Friday and was one of the pallbearers at the fu-
 neral. General Shafter said last night in an interview that as he had about a day to spare before going west, he would run up and see his old friend. Major Albee who always gives him q very cordial welcome here
 The general was asked to say some4 thing concerning the Anglo-Boer war. He said he was in such position that criticism or in fact suggestions that
 might look pointed were entirely out of order. He further said that the Eng- fish and the Boers were our friends and so he didn't believe in running down one side and praising the other. Fur1 ther than that General Shafter Sabso- lutely refused to converse on the war
 General Shafter spoke of the funeral of General Lawton and said 1t was one of the largest andmost affecting funerals that ever has taken place. Everybody in the army was highly gratified to see < the respect shown for General Lawton and to see the brave general universal- ly honored. Expressions of sympathy for his family were heard from San Francisco to Washington and it Is doubtful if more worthy patriot than General George w. Lawton ever lived and died" General Shafter seemed deeply affected when speaking of Gen. eral Lawton, the two being very close friends.
 General Shafter was looking exceed ingly well and said he was in the best of health. He has paid two other visits to New Haven and each time was the guest of Major Albee.
