News from Japanese Commander

Washington, August g. - The Japanese legation received the following advices from the foreign office at Tokio dated August 23:
 The commander of the Japanese fleet at Taku transmitted by telegraph on the Fist the following report from Hankow:
 The Japanese regiment which had been detailed early on the 18th for the purpose of protecting the imperial palace had hard fighting all day, but they could not bring 1t to a decisive issue, they refrained from firing on the palace. On the follow ing day, however, they took it's principal gate, and now the city is almost entirely cleared of the enemy.
 The imperial family and the ministers of state left for Sian five or six days ago, es- corted by 5000 troops under Tung Fun Shiang.
 With the object of restoring order the city has been divided into districts, Japan being assigned the northern half, and Ja- pan, the United States, Great Britain, Russia and France have each deputed an officer to carry the administration.
 Prince Tuans residence has been burned down by the Japanese. The Japanese naval detachment which guarded the Japanese legation lost during the siege killed and wounded.
 The Japanese forces which occupy the imperial palace have rescued foreign and native Christians from their confinement

to have fought twenty-five rounds at PA pounds.
 In the opening round Bernstein raised lump over Gardner's eye and had the bet ter of the in-ffghting, but at the close of the round Gardner shook him up with a hard left upper cut on the face. There was plenty of punching in the next three rounds, and hard exchanges occurred on the body when the men got to close quar- ters. Gardner had decidedly the better of the sixth round, and in the seventh honors were even. Bernstein frequently adopted roughng tactics with his adversary on the ropes and the referee cautioned him for holding. In the seventh round Bernstein almost threw Gardner of his head by wrest- ling. Gardner played for the body and sent in some stinging left smashes over the heart and the pit of the stomach
 In the ninth Gardner sent a stiff left to the wind after which Bernstein forced him to the ropes where there was a lot of ronghing done Bernstein being the ag- gressor There were several cries of foul" but the referee did not hear them. In the tenth and eleventh rounds they exchanged some wicked smashes.
 Only ffty-eight seconds of the twelfth round elapsed when Bernstein grappled Gardner and threw him over his head. Gardner fell on his head and shoulders, and his seconds immediately claimed a foul. Gardner jumped to his feet quickly and was ready to continue the battle but Referee Foley sent the men to their cor nerS and disqualified Bernstein

NO LABOR TROUBLES.
Steel Officials Deny the Alarming Re
 ports.

Chicago, August 23.-Oficials of the Re public Iron and Steel Company and the Illinois Steel Company deny that there is any prospect of labor troubles in steel and iron circles. The report that the wage question is becoming aggravated; that the Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers were about to consider whether or not strike should be inaugurated the officials of the two big corporations say is without foundation.
 The question of wage scale has been under discussion for some time past be- tween the union and the employers, but the discussion is being carried on with the utmost harmony and a settlement is ex- pected within the next two or three weeks

FITZSIMMONS AND SHARKEY READY
 sa II
 55ra The Betting is 2 to T. on the CorniShman. BATTLE OCCURS TONIGHT
Many Changes Have Been Wrought Since the Men First Clashed- The $25,O00 Purse May be
 Divided Equally.

New York, August 2S.-Both Robert Fitz- simmons and Thomas Sharkey, who are to settle the question of pugilistic su- premaey at the Seaside Athletic Club at Coney Island tomorrow night, spent quiet day at their training quarters.
 Usually on the night before a pugilistic contest interest centers in the betting, but tonight at the resorts frequented by the followers of the ring, it is claimed that few wagers are being made.
 According to figures, Fitzsimmons is a 2 to 1 favorite over the sailor, but there are few found willing to take the odds.
 Johnny White, who believes Sharkey will win, bet $20O today on the sailor against $350.
 John Considine is a Fitzsimmons man, and last night managed to get S1,000 against $500 on the exchampion
 Time has wrought many changes in the pugilistic situation since the sailor and the Cornishman clashed on the Pacific coast. Fitzsimmons won the worlds cham pionship and lost it again. Sharkey, al- though defeated few times, has maintain tained his right to be regarded as a cham pionship possibility.
 Many of those who consider Fitzsim- mons 10 to favorite seem to believe that the fiercer the pace at the outset the bet ter it will be for Sharkey The argument principally used in support of this view is that Fitzsimmons left himself well open the first round of his go with Ruhlin, and that if he displays similar tactics with the sailor he is liable to bump into a knockout punch.
 One is led to infer from this style Of req soning that if Fitzsimmons 2 worries through a couple of rounds he will have passed the danger point that the sailors best jolts will be short, and that the Cor nlshman's chances of winning will improve right along.
 Fitzsimmons has also done all that he could to make himself fit and strong and he has taken on weight recently. Here is what the two principals have to say about the matter: --I
 Fftzsimmons is quoted as follows: +
 'Sharkey is unquestionably a very plucky fellow, and you have to knock him cold in order to make sure that he remains down on the boards long enough to be counted out, but I'll find no trouble in ac- complaining that feat"
 Sharkey is quoted saying:
 Those fellows who are running away with the idea that Fitzsimmons is going to put me out with the solar plexus blow, and do the trick right off, are very much mis- taken" -.s
 The story that the purse of $25, COG is to be divided evenly between the men, instead of on basis of 75 per cent to the winner and 25 per cent to the loser, has not been denied.
