VANCOUVER UNDULY EXCITED
OVER REPORTS OF SMALLPOX.
Ceased since Vaccination Order
Travelling Men Say There Is Lit
tie of the Disease in This State.

Local travel TO Vancouver, b. c., has al
most entirely ceased owing TO the action
of the heath department Of that city in
demanding that all passengers arriving
from the state Of Washington either show
a vaccination mark or submit 10 another
operation.
Arriving at the hotels daily are those
who have turned back rather than enter
the city and be vaccinated. A way. how
ever, has been found TO get TO Vancouver
without undergoing the ordeal IL the pas
senger is from any other point outside the
state of Washington and has not delayed
in passing through he is not stopped and
can pass muster.
Among travellers who have refused 10
undergo vaccination and who have reached
their destinations in British Columbia by
making long detour around Vancouver
are DR.. and Mrs, L. O. Smith, OF Port
land. now guests OF the Butler.
They win never vacciuate me-" Dr.
Smith said yesterday. Il have seen too
much Of promseuous vaccination. The
arbitrary methods Of the Vancouver health
department are wholly without warrant
and are needless"
Among the travelling men who have,
during the past thirty days. visited almost
every section of the state, not one is there
that claims he has at any time come in
contact with smallpox.

the number at the Seattle yesterday. lis

RUSSELL DEFEATS CURLEY.
Nine Rounds of Fierce Ffghtng' I"
which Both Contestants Are
Terribly Punished.

Fred Russell the young giant who
aspires TO honors In the heaVywelsht
class was declared the winner over Curiey
Carr In the ninth round of what was
scheduled to be a twenty-round hght AZ
the Cascade tunnel early yesterday
morning
From reports which reached Seattle last
night II would appear that the contest
was fierce from start to finish. Both men
were badly marked the victor suffering
in this respect as much as his opponent
Curley was knocked down no less than
nine times, but came up smiling every
time and when the fight was given TO
Russell was still strong on his legs, and
expressed a desire to 70 on TO the end
His hacker. Burns, however, said ne was
satisfied with the showing Curley had
made, and did not care to have him re-
ceive more punishment In view OF his
coming contest In Seattle March IL with
Nick Burnley
Curley did not score a Touchdown on
Russell. but he went at him hammer and
tongs returning blow for blow Such q
favorable impression did he make that
many think he VIII score a victory over
clever and scientific Burley. That Curlev
has proved his reputation as a glutton for
punishment this fight proves. He was up
against a man who is about eight inches
taller than he thirty-nve or forty pounds
heavier, and fresh from triumphs I'm Cali
fornia.
on paper the fight was as unequal as
that between Joe Choynsk and Joe VOL
colt. but when II came to actual ring
work Curley made a splendid showing
II was not what one would term a scten-
tihc contest. There was little blocking
ducldng or side-stepplng They both went
in for hard hitting. with the result that
there was more smuggling than anything
else.
one OF the spectators took oftense at
the referee because he did not make the
fighters break quick enough when Russell
was leaning forward on Curley. To en-
plastic his feelings In the matter the
fellow jumped through the ropes and
struck the referee on the eve II is said
the referee finally succeeded in putting
the pseudo fighter out and the regular
match proceeded.
