LYONS Knocks Cain Out.

Tom O'Rourke sprung a surprise party on
quite a large crowd OF sports at the
Hercules A. c.. Brooklyn. last night. 1t came
in the shape OF Q colored boxer named Henry
Lyons, from Chicago. The latter met Joe Cain
Of Brooklyn and not only outpointed the
local man, but knocked Cain out In the last
round. The pair were scheduled TO go
twenty-five rounds at 126 pounds. but at
the outset Lyons's superiority was manifest.
His style and looks suggest Joe Cans. and
his defence Is marvellous. The only weak
thing about him Is his inability to stand z
humping In the wind. Cain gave him stlfl
body punches and this made him vince often;
The opening bout introduced Tommy feltz
OF brooklyn and Kid Walsh OF Phiiadel-
phia. Feltz, who is q pupil o. Terry
Walsh scaled at l18 pounds, Feltz
knocked Walsh out In the second round With q
ten rounds. Tony Moran Of .Brooklyn tackled
young Horney for ten rounds. at Jig pounds
seconds stepping into the ring.

faculty when seen in reference to the story
that Dick" Grant. the well-known mile
runner had failed to secure admission to
lectures because the medical faculty had
adIudged thai he was at the school for the
uurposs nj taking part In athletics only, said
that the report was entirely without founda-
ton. Grant he said. was In trouble with the

about IN" case, but said that he thought II un-
likely that Grant would have been kept from
his ROTATIONS on that account. The root Of
the trouble Is probably that Grant Is in arrears
with the bursar on his term bill.

GOV. ALLEN SAILS.
Leaves For Porto Rico on the

Washington, April 21.-Promptly at
one o'clock this afternoon, in drizzling
rain the United States steamship
Dolphin cast off from her dock at the
Washington navy yard, and steamed
down the Potomac, carrying Gov. Allen
of Potro Rico, to the scene of his new
duties. As the Dolphin sailed away, the
marine band played 'Auld Lang Syne,"
the yard batteries doomed a parting sa-
lutte, a detachment of marines under
command of Major Diclxins drew up at
present arms and handkerchief
waved from the friends and onlookers
gathered on shore.
Secretary and Mrs. Long who were
to be the guests at luncheon of Captain
Sutherland, in command of the Dolphin,
arrived on board at noon, and were fol-
lowed almost Immediately by Gov. Allen

day. the advancing army broke suddenly
from the brush into savannah long

WHEELER LENDS A HAND.
Starts a Movement to Help Churches
in Guam and Philippines.

Washington. April 21.-Gen. Joseph
Wheeler, in q letter to Miss Fannie
Wheelan, a prominent Catholic of this
city, has set on foot a movement to aid
the poor churches of the Philippine and
Ladrone islands. In this letter Gen.
Wheeler says:
During my recent visit to the Philip
pines and the Ladrones, 1 was much
impressed with the great devotion of the
women, and it occurred to me that it
would be a graceful thing for the Cath
ole women of our country to show their
appreciation of the piety Of their sis
tiers of the east in some substantial way.
while on the island of Guam, where
there are six churches, inquired what
would be the most acceptable present
and was informed that the churches
which are very similar to our small
country churches need stations of the
cross"
Miss Wheelan is associated with Mrs.
Thomas F. Ryan of New York in the
work for poor churches of the United
States of the Tabernacle society, the
object of which is to furnish necessary
articles for churches which are too poor
to procure them. Their work has been
chiefly with the Indian missions.

PLAGUE CONTINUES.
Every Effort to Stamp Out the Disease
in Australia Unsuccessful.

Vancouver, B. c., April 21.-It is the
opinion of DR.. Thompson. president of
the Sydney board of health, that there
is no hope of an early cessation of the
plague and that the epidemic can hard
ly be suppressed under eight or nine
months. The steamer Miowera from
Sydney yesterday brought news of the
spread of the plague in Australia and
of the Intellectual efforts of the colonial
government to stamp it out. Thousands
have been inoculated, the premier and
members of his cabinet presenting them
selves for voluntary incubation to make
more easy the efforts of the health Off
GERS in the lower parts OF the city. Con-
tinual and thorough work has been done
in the way of cleaning the city, and war
has been waged relentlessly against
rats.
Under the direction of the health au-
thorities the entire steamer traffic of
Sydney has been rearranged.
Wharves have been isolated, ferries re-
moved and jetties disinfetced, torn down
and rebuilt. All the Australian towns,
especially those on the coast have been
taking extraordinary precautions
against the plague.

the near future the statement made bv
Brother Harris a short time ago that one
IS likely to get crOsS-eyed- looking. at one
side OF the market. Wheat has not sold
below csc, except for a moment, in nearly
year and a half. With money Ioanine.
at 212 per cent, we can see no reason whV
we should give our wheat to the foreign
ers It has certainly been demonstrated
that they will take more corn at 40c a
bushel than at SOC. and why will not this
rule work the same way in wheat?
CORN-Corn ruled steady. Liverpool
cables came 1kc higher and the market
held steady until within a few minutes
of the close, when timid holders threw
their lines on the market, taking chances
on buying again Monday at a slight re-
cession- Cash demand is excellent and
exports are heavy. Acceptances are a.
million bushels a day. These facts will
have their effect on prices sooner OF. later
and an advance Of some consequence viii
result. The big pool have been picking
up all offerings steadily and are about IN
bushel, just as they did before
OATS-OatS are quiet There IS quite a
lot of investment buying on the breaks
and some changing from May to July.
This has the effect of weakening the May
price Oats will follow corn. They are
the cheapest thing on the list.
VISIONS-Provisions had a slight
set back today, due principally to a duh
market and heavy realizing over Sunday.
and receipts smaller than estimates. We
believe pork is going to 1890 a barrel
and that purchases on quick breaks, If
protected with reasonable margins, and
a little patience, will result in handsome
profits. J. @. GOINGS.

It Is Proposed to Place the Granting
of Franchises in Porto Rico.

Washington, April 21.-The house
committee on insular affairs voted to-
day to amend the Foraker resolution
on Porto Rico so as to make franz
chises and concessions imperative I'M
til approved by the president, also
placing rigorous restrictions on chart
erS to private corporations. The text
of the amendments as adopted is as
follows:
Section 2. That all franchises, priv
i1eges or concessions, mentioned in sec
by the president of the United States,
and no such franchise, privilege or con-
cession shall be operative until it shall
have been so approved.
Section 8. That all charters Of rri-
vate corporations shall provide that the
same shall be subject to amendment,
alteration or repeal; shall forbid the
issue of stock or bonds, except in ex-
change for actual cash, or property at
a. fair valuation, equal in amount to
the par value of the stocks or bonds
issued; shall forbid the declaring of
stock or bond dividends and in the case
Of public service corporations shall
provide for the effective regulation of
the charges thereof and for the pur-
chase or taking by the public authori-
ties of their property at a fair valua-
ton. No corporation shall be author
lied to conduct the business of buying
and selling real estate, of issuing cur
reney, or of engaging in agriculture, or
permitted to hold or own real estate
except such as may be reasonably nee
essary to enable it to carry out the pur-
poses for which it is created. Banking
corporations, however, may be author
lied to loan funds upon real estate Sc
curity and to purchase real estate when
necessary for the collection of loans,
but they shall dispose of all real estate
so obtained within five years after re-
ceiving the title. Corporations. other
than those organized in Porto Rico and
doing business therein, shall be bound
| by the provisions of this section, SO far
| as they are applicable"
The meeting today was a special one
and attracted unusual interest because
of Chairman Cooper's purpose to urge
the franchise restrictions. Thirteen
members attended, viz, Cooper. Hit,
