.orty-fve minutes and thirty five
seconds, and during all of this time the
nen were straining their muscles to
5heNimit and their bodies dripping and
slippery with p~erspiration. 1t was the
most wonderful exhibition of endur-
4nce ever witnessed in ManSato, and
aas seldom been equalled anywhere.
After it was over. Faulkner GOV
ed his strength sufficiently to stand up
md say to the audience that the match
had been fairly won by Rooney. He
said that in the 800 encounters that he
had been in he had never had such an
accident happen to him az had oc-
Cured in the third bout. He said that
he felt confident that he could throw
Rooney, and only hoped that another
match between them could be ar
ranged.
Faulkner lays his defeat to his hay
ing been stunned in the the third bout.
The match was most exciting
throughout.
Faulkner's true weight is 1872 pounds,
and Rooney's is 227 pounds.
Faulkner's position in regard to the
neck saving tactics of Rooney in the
first bout is that it was an unfair tactic
and should have given him the bout
in case the rules had been strictly fol-
lowed, yet he did not care to claim a
foul on it, as he had been so well
treated by the club. 1t did not disab. @
him longer than the time being. The
referee cautioned Rooney not to repeat
the tactics.
Both men admit that the fall in the
third bout was an accident that might
not happen in a hundred matches.
Faulkner slipped and this gave his
an agonist the advantage He intended
to get the grape vine hold, but missed
it, and had not time to turn and come
| down on his hands and knees.
Faulkner last night, after the match,
offered to wrestle Rooney anywhere in
Canada for from $500 to $1,000 q side
! Rooney offered to take this up on this
side of the boundary. Today efforts
were made to get the men to come to
an agreement in regard to another
match.
Rooney left on the 2:15 p. m. train
for Chicago, and Faulkner intends to
leave tonight. Both say that they
never came up against a harder
wrestler.
The wrestlers were unable to agree
upon another match, but there Is a pos
sibility that they may come together
again later in the season in this city.

fettle, but the unexpected happened.
Rooney picked Faulkner up bodily an6
brought him down On the mat sideways
so hard that Faulkner was stunned for
a moment. 1t was a terrible fall, and
had been accomplished so quickly tina,
Faulkner did not have time to turn
His head and knee struck the floor, an6
he was pinned to the mat with both
there, while his friends began to gather
around. When he recovered conscious
ness he siezed his own second by one
leg, installing him for Rooney and not
realizing that the bout was over and
that he had lost. 1t was a pathetic
moment. Faulkner vas helped to his
feet and staggered to the stairway
supported on each side, AID holding his
hand to his head where it had struck
the floor.
When time was called for the fourth
bout it was 1925 o'clock. Faulkner
came up looking pale and weary, while
Rooney was full of confidence. Rooney
rushed his antagonist, trying to wind
the match up quickly. Faulkner
showed the splendid stuff that is in
him by putting up the finest contest of
the evening. Both men strove to their
utmost and time and again each had
n shoulder of his opponent down but
was unable to put the other down by
the most strenuous YORK. In the end,
Rooney's weight and giant strength
forced Faulkner over, and the match
was over, An outburst of applause
greeted Rooney. The bout lasted

WON BY ROONEY.
The Gripman Gets Three Bouts
Out of Four.
Wonderful Exhibition of Science,
Strength and Endurance al Last
Nights Wrestling Match.

John J. Rooney won three bouts out
Eof four IN the wrestling match last
might at the opera house, held under
ethe auspices of the Mankato Athletic
eclgb, and he is now prepared to go up
against Roeber or any of the Eastern
champions.
The opera house was filled from gal
3ery 60 pit by a crowd that had gather
cd TO do homage to muscle and brain
working in conjunction. There must
E1ave been fully 600 people present, and
che receipts met the expectations of the
club. The crowd was orderly and the
entire performance was clean and
gentIemanly,
The Concordia band was present and
rendered several excellent selections
when the curtain rolled up, the mat
was seen roped off and surrounded by
officials of the ring, bsckers of the con-
5~estants, club officers and newspaper
SzGea- H. Q. Gerlach was referee, Thos
Rooney seconded his brother. and
-Arnan Hockey was second for Faux
raer j E Reynolds was announcer,
j. G. Wise Jr. official time keeper, and
Mr.. Scott time keeper for Faulkner,
and Frank Kieffer for Rooney.
Faulkner was the first of the wrest-
iers TO cross the ropes, and as he did so
he received an ovation from the audi,
ence. Cheers We're given as Rooney
stepped onto the nat a little later and
and shook hands with Faux
her. The contestants were weighed

and the announcement was made that
Faulkner tipped the beam at 1876
pounds and Rooney at 1891. While
this was the announcement that was
given to the public, there was hardly a
man in the theatre that did not believe
that Rooney weighed at least 30 pounds
more than Faulkner. 1t was this extra
weight, hurled on Faulkner at critical
moments, that won Rooney the match,
Both men appeared to be in prime con
dition, but Rooney was the larger and
J more muscular in every Way.
Mr.. Reynolds stated that the club ap'
preciated the liberal patronage OF the
public. He introduced the contest
ants, who tipped a coin for corners.
A brief conversation occurred between
them and the referee, in which a fair
understanding was arrived at as to
what holds were to be barred and what
were to be considered unfair tactics.
The strangle hold was barred.
Mr.. Faulkner advanced to the foot
lights and stated that the worst treat
ment which he had received in Man
kato was the very best of everything.
He had never been treated better by
any club during the 800 matches in
which he had wrestled. He desired to
thank one and all for their kind atten-
tions during his stay in Mankato.
Faulkner was the undoubted favorite
of the audience. This was rather
strange when it is considered what a
~favorite Rooney was at the time of his
match with the Turk. The change was
undoubtedly due to the gentlemanly,
quiet, unassuming and unboastful con-
duct of Faulkner during his stay in the
city. He made a friend of every one
whom ne met.
The first bout was called at 9:05
o'clock and lasted "a minutes and SO
seconds. The match was a game one
from the start, and was wound up by
Rooney saving his right forearm across
the muscles of the left side of Faux
ner's neck, This weakened Faulkner

to such an extent that Rooney
was able to pin both shoulders
down to the mat. The
audience almost unanimously looked
upon this saving process as a brutal,
unfair tactic, and it lost Rooney many
friends Faulkner did not attempt to
claim a foul on it. The bout was
closed amid a loud chorus of disap-
proving shouts from the audience, the
word "foul" being hurled from every
part of the house.
During the fifteen minutes intermis-
sion, Billy Yost gave a clever trapese
performance.
The second bout began at 9:45 o'clock
and was won by Faulkner in
ten minutes and twe-ty two
seconds. He had Rooney pinned
down two or three times before he
understood the referees signal that the
bout was over. A perfect storm of APP
plause went up as the two men went
to their dressing rooms below, to be
sponged and rubbed by their attend
ants. Faulkner was showing the most
science, while Rooney had the muscle
and weight in his favor. Both men
were showing great staying powers.
During this intermission, James Nc
Murtrie and Arman Hockey gave an
exhibition with the horizontal bars
that did them great credit.
The third bout lasted but two min
utes and t%hirty-one seconds, 1t began
at 1910 p. m. with Faulkner on the
aggressive. Both men were in fine

S[VENTY-SK MILLIONS. EMPRESS UNDAUNIED.|1
POPULATION OF THE UNITED
STATES.
Hawaii Has a Hundred and Fifty-four
Thousand-The Census of the Last
Ten Years.

WASHINGTON, d. c., October 3d.
The population of Hawaii, as shown by
the census returns made public today,
is 15z;001 In 1880 it was $1,000.
The total population of the United
States for 1900 is 1926, ,220 The popu-
lation of the forty-five states is 74,627,-
907, the remainder being in the terri
tories. The total population in $780, in
Guiding Hawaii, with which the aggre-
gate population of the present census
should be compared, was 63,069, 1856, the
gain in population of 13, ,225, ,464, during
the last ten years being nearly 21 per
cent.
Under the census returns Washington
is the only Pacific Coast State that may
possibly gain in it's Congressional re-
presentation. The population of the
states, as announced by Director Mer-
riam today, will afford data for new
Congressional apportionment, and the
next session of Congress probably will
fix the new ratio for Congressional re-
presentation.
At present there are 357 members OF
the House, including one vacancy, and
there is a decided feeling against in
creasing that number. The lower branch
of Congress already is so large that it is
unwieldly, and If the present basis of
representations which is 173,9O1, should
be maintained the membership of the
House would be increased to more than
45O. In an informal and tentative way
there has been some discussion of fixing
the new ratio at 100000. Even on that
basis there would ne a net increase In
the mebership of the House of eight
cen, making the total membership 374.
If the ratio were to be fixed at 200 90
these states would increase their Con-
gressional delegations, as indicated:
Arkansas l, Colorado l. Florida l, Illi-
nois 2, Louisiana 1, Massachusetts /,
Minnesota 2, Mississippi 1, Missouri 1,
North Dakota 1, New Jersey l. New
York 2, Pennsylvania 2, Texas 2, Wash
ington l. West Virginia l. This would
make total increase in membership OF
| twenty-five. Under the same ratio
however, Kansas, Maine, Nebraska and
| Virginia each would lose one Represent
| tative in Congress, leaving a net gain \
| the membership of the House of eight
cen. Ohio under the 200, 900 ratio would
maintain its Congressional delegation
unchanged, for it would have twenty
| Congressman on the full ratio, and
a majority of the fraction making TWEEN
| ty-One.

TERRIBLE LOSS Of LIFE
COLLAPSE OF BIG BUILDING IN
NEW YORK.
Many People Killed and Hundreds are
Wounded in Affair-Loss will reach
Several Millions.

NEW YORK, October 29.-By a series
of terrific explosions following a fire a
few minutes after noon today Tarrant's
wholesale and retail drug store at the
southeast corner of Greenwich and
Warren streets, was demolished, hun
dreds of men and women were injured
and many killed. Both sides of Warren
street, between Greenwich and Wash
ington, We're laid in ruins and buildings
for blocks around were wrecked in all
degrees. For half block to the north
and south of Warren street the east side
of Washington street is almost as hope
lessly wrecked as is also the short War
ren-street block of 100 feet frontage. In
all some thing like forty places of busi-
ness are either wholly or partially des-
troyed.
Early reports stated that the loss Of
life would reach 200 but late tonight 1t
was estimated that not more than forty
five had perished and the property loss
was between one and two millions. 1t
is thought the dead will not exceed fifty
and the property loss not over $4,000 900
at the outside.

ALEMADA ARRIVES.
Many Kamaainas Return From San

The steamship Alameda arrived at
about noon today from San Francisco,
having been delayed near the Golden
Gate by fog. She put out from San
Francisco at midnight on the 31st and
ran into a heavy fog, which held her
until the next morning. There was no
damage to the vessel, but Purser Smith
says that the fog moved away con-
siderably broken up.

RUN TO PACIFIC HEIGHTS THIS
MORNING.
The Deslty Road Tested and Found to
be All Right-Regular Service in a
Few Days.

The first electric street cars ever run
in Hawaii were tested today and found
satisfactory in every respect. They
are on the Desky road to Pacific
Heights, which will now be connected
with Honolulu by regular electric car
service in a few days.
The test made this morning was the
first attempt to run the new cars. They
were found to be all right in every
way, and and the run from the foot
of the hill to the Heights was made
without a mishap. Among those ON
board were Mr.. Desky, w. c. Weldon.
Mr.. Skinner OF the Westinghouse COM
pany, electrician Mckee and others.
The car ran smoothly up the hill and
down again, and now Desky's project
of making electric car communication
between the Heights and Honolulu is
an accomplished fact.

ALAMEDA SIGHTS wREcKAGE.

Owing to a wait for the English mail,
the bursting of a steam pipe and a
heavy fog, the Alameda left San Fran
cisco about nine hours late. For the
first four days out disagreeable weather
was encountered. Notwithstanding
these various handicaps the ship made
a good run to port.
At 7:40 p. m. Friday, November q in
latitude 34-35 North, longitude 131-132
West, the deck officers sighted a dark
object about fifty feet to windward,
standing upright; it appeared to be the
wreckage of a mast with rigging weigh
ing end down.

LOOKS LIKE INDEPENDENTS
HAVE THAT ISLAND.
Baldwin Only Safe Republican-Fight-
ing Chance for Kepoikai-Others out
of it Altogether.

The news by the Eclipse is that Maui
with Wailuku, Lanai and Molokai to
hear from Wilcox was twenty-one votes
ahead of Sam Parker. The total vote
was as follows:
Wilcox, 1893.
Parker, 372.
David, 209.
The Independents say that the pre-
cincts not yet heard from will increase
Wilcox's lead considerable.
The Senatorial ticket Jared nearly as
bad. H. p. Baldwin is the only Re-
publican sure of election. He has 5S3
votes. Kaiue, an Independent, leads
with $40 votes. William White is the
other safe man, with 511 votes. Judge
Kepoikai received 465 votes and may
therefore give White close finish. Tom
Clark, Democrat received 249. W. H.
Cornwell has only 205 and will also be
showed under" These figures include
the votes in all the precincts except La
mai and Molokai, the Wailuku total be-
ing also in.
For Representative only Lahaina,
Kahului and Honuaula have been heard
from, so that it is difficult to forecast
the result. The figures are as follows:
Republican-Dickey, 112; ]. K. Ma
kila, 92; George Hons, 146; Phillip Pail,

K. Kahaulelio, 100.
The Eclipse brought an indefinite re-
port of some trouble at Wailuku and a
probable contest. AS the senatorial
vote and not the others arrived from
that precinct it is assumed that the fuss
was over the vote or count for dele
gate.
