A crowd of from 700 to 500 sports were
treated to a good exhibition of boxing
under the auspices Of the Wilmington
Athletic Association in the Pyle Cycle
Academy last night. The preliminary
bouts We're tame but the crowd got its
moneys worth in the wnd-up, which was
to have been Il fifteen round bout be-
tween George McFadden of New York,
light weight champion of the world and
Jack DAILY of this city.
In the ninth round McFadden put DAILY
out with right arm swing on the nose.
1t was good clean Knockout.
DAILY put up a great fight. The sur
prise was that he staid in it so long.
The bout was sized up from the start
as McFadden's but DAILY was in fine
condition and surprised even those who
knew him best. From the third round to
the finish he took awful punishment and
was expected to go out amy minute, Sew

the count. Each time he came up and
went at it again with vigor. McFaaden

THE WEST VIRGINIA STRIKE.
Marshal Hufford and Sheriff Hatfield
Deny Being Fired Upon.

1hacker. w. Va, June 2S-MarShal a.
c. Hulford and Sheriff Greenway Hat
field. who arrived here today, stated pos
itively that the reports Of their having
been fired upon from ambush and that
the railroad station here was riddled with
bullets while the officers were waiting
for a train recently were incorrect. Not
Il shot was fired at the deputy while serv-
ing notices of the injunction on the
strikers or at any time.
c. W. Burke, the leader Of the strik-
ers. who has temporary headquarters
here, said the strike came about from
the opposition of Superintendent LAM
bert to the miners union. The shooting
of last week was done, he declared. by
kentuckians and not by strikers. When
asked if the .ejettment of tenants would
be met with resistance Mr.. Burke replied:
mo; the union men will follow out
their policy of abiding by the law and
make no resistance. We are getting
$1,000 week from the United Mine
Workers of America and all the men are
in fairly good shape to stand long
period of idleness If necessary. If we
have to camp on the mountains for five
years there can be no compromise in this
affair"
