Fighta In Chicago.
THIRTEEN WARRANTS ISSUED

Terry McGovern, Joe Cans and Ref.
cree sier Among Those to be Ar.
rested-Managers Of Tattersalls Say
Fight Will Take Place.
Chicago. Dec. 12.-Warrants for
prize fight promoters, principals. ref.
erees and managers were issued to
Frank Hall by Police Magistrate M. r..
M. Wallace Tuesday. Hall declares he
will stop not only the McGovern-G Cans
contest, scheduled for Thursday even
ing at Tattersall's, but all future glove
contests In this city. He even declares
he will try to secure warrant for
Mayor Harrison's arrest If the permit
IL not revoked.
The promoters of the contests sneer
at the complainant, whose efforts they
denounce as actuated by spite and
mercenary motives and offer to wager
$4,000 that the exhibition will be
given.
Thirteen warrants were granted by
Justice Wallace for the following men:
B. M. Winston, agent of Tattersalls,
charged with abetting the violation of
law by leasing the building for spar
ring matches.
Louis M. Houseman, matchmaker Of
the club, two warrants.
George Siler, referee. two warrants.
Sam Harris, manager of pugilist, two
warrants.
Terry McGovern, pugilist. two war
rants.
Joe Cans, pugilist.
Maurice Raush, pugilist.
"Kid" Broad, pugilist.
Danny Daugherty, pugilist.
Hall also tried to procure a warrant
for "Tod" Sloan, the jockey, on the
charge Of instigating the exhibition by
Offering to bet on the result. He failed.
Matchmaker Houseman, of the club,
said: "The exhibition will take place
and no self-constituted reformers will
stop it. There is motive behind this
with which the public is unacquainted
and several actions among which will
be attempted blackmail that may be
presented in the courts shortly will en-
tighten them. I am willing to wager
any part of $4,000 that the exhibition
will be given Thursday evening.
81 don't care anything about Mr..
Houseman's wager" said Hall "The
law is there on the books and there
can be no grounds for misinterpreta-
ton"
None of the warrants were served
Tuesday night.

drawn from Mr.. Brodrick in the house
Of commons Tuesday that the powers

To Increase Church Attendance,

Cleveland, Dec. 12.-At tie regul II
meeting of the Cleveland presbytery
Tuesday, the question of how to
counterfeit the influences which are de.
creasing the attendance It the

CLEVER CONFIDENCE MEN.
They Rob an italian Priest Of $4,000
Supposed to be Americans.

They Rob an italian Priest Of $4,000
Supposed to be Americans.
New York.-The World says: Two
clever confidence men, believed to be
Amoi cans from descriptions furnished
by priest In Italy, whom they robbed
of $4,000, it is thought may be o,
their way to this country and the 20
lice of all the large cities have been
notified to watch for them. The story
which reached this city says they got
from the safe of the Jesuit institute at
Turin $4,000 funds of the institution.
The Rev. Father NJ Crosse, of the so.
ciety of Jesus, the superior of the In.
stitution, was their victim.
Two well-groomed men with pol
ished manners, apparently Americans
called on Father Crosse a fortnight
ago and told him they were trustees OF
q rich orphan boy whose father had re,
Gently been killed in the Boer war.
They said they wished to place the
boy in the priests care and have him
educated in the institute. They ex.
planned they were custodtans of $780,.
900 belonging to the boy, which they
desired to leave for safe keeping In
Father Crosses hands.
The priest consented to assume
charge of the boy and to accent the
custody of the funds The men there
upon produced several bundles OF
what purported to be bank notes,
which they suggested should be placed
In the safe. Father Crosse opened the
safe and the men placed therein the
bundles.
They then parted, stating they were
going to Milan, where they had left the
boy, and would return with him short
". Father Crosse waited several days
and when neither the men nor the boy
appeared became suspicious and went
to the safe.
He found that the bank notes eggre
eating $4,000 were gone and that the
bundles of supposed bank notes left by
the men were only waste paper.
The men, the police say, distracted
the funds from the institution under
the eyes of the priest while placing
their counterfeit bundles in the safe.

speech in opposition to the ship sub.
sidy bill in the senate was delivered to.
day by Mr.. Clay (Ga.). one of the mi.
nority members of the committee on
commerce which reported II to the sen,
ate. He rs recognized as one 4 the
most vigorous opponents Of the bill In
the senate. and during nearly two
hours was accorded close attention by
senators on both sides of the chamber
Mr., Hanna, who expects to reply to
MI Clays argument, gave him a par.
ticularly attentive hearing. In the
carly part of the session a lively col
loquy was precipitated over the ref.
erence to committee of the Grout oleo
margarine bill. just passed by the
house of representatives. II finally
went to the committee on agriculture
This was a victory for the friends OF
the bill. There also was a sharp de,
bate over the Montana senatorial case.
but no action was taken, the matter by
consent going over temporarily. To.
morrow no business session of the sen
ate will be had as the day will be de
voted to the celebration of the centen.
NAL of the establishment of the seat OF
government in Washington.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Clay's
speech, Mr.. Hanna CO.,, who in com
mon with senator's on both sides of the
chamber had given close attention to
the address, said he had expected to
submit some remarks on the bill yes
terday, but owing to the lateness of tn.
hour would postpone the delivery OF
his address until Thursday.

ton of Mr.. Lodge, went into executive

NEW YEARS PAPERS.

The Salt Lake morning papers-the
Tribune and the Herad-published
their New Years editions on Sunday
morning. Both showed evidence Of
great enterprise, and special care IN the
collection Of statistics, and In descrip-
lions Of the various industries and en-
terprises Of Utah and the adjacent
States
The Tribune consisted Of 76 pages,
the Herald Of SO. The former was the
more elaborate and detailed the latter
the more condensed. Each paper will
be found Of value and worth filing for
reference in the future, and both will
be viewed as marks Of progress and
growth IN the State Of Utah.
The Tribune has had a mammoth
New Years edition annually, but this
year has surpassed It's former efforts In
the mass Of Information it has gathered
from an parts Of the intermountain
region
The Herald has given to lts readers
well cIosslGed and succinct epitome Of
the status and advancement Of the
agricultural. mineral manufacturing.
railroad. commercial and educational
interests of Utah
Both journals deserve credit for the
care and labor exhibited In their extra
editions for the opening year Of the
twentieth century
