FIGHTS IND FIGHTERS.
The Courts are Now Trying the Big Fight.

Tommy Ryan Is 8 Foxy Fighter-u-
 hnois Has Fight After All-Forbes
 Beats Garfeld-Colored Boxer Dy-
 ing from the Effects of q Blow.
 Cincinnati, Feb S6.-Before Judge Howard Hollister in common pleas court yesterday morning the injunc- tlen case against the proposed Jeffries- Ruhlln contest was begun. In the court room were former United States solicitor General Lawrence Maxwell, former United States Solicitor General Lawrence Maxwell, former United states Attorney General Judson liar mon, State Attorney-General John M. sheets, E. w. kttrege, John W. War rfngton and John W. Heron appeared TOT the state, and former Judges Peck, his partner, Shafer, former Judge Moses F. Wilson, Goebel and Bett IT, ger, Fred Whertenstein and Herman Nltte, the latter the Saengerfest A. U. legal adviser and matchmaker, an sWered for the defendants. Many ministers Were interested spectators and some women also tried to gain admlttance, but could not owing to the crush. In the afternon the general public was admitted. Mayor EleIsch- mann, who issued the permit for the contest, was preSlnt to testify, but was not called. The Hon Charles w. Baker, who recently made bitter speech at banquet at. Columbus against the battle, was also present Ruhlin. and his manager, Billy Mad den, and Billy Delaney, JeHries's train CT, were also on hand during the morn ing. The champion did not appear Ruhlln made many suggestions to counsel for the defense
 Witte was the first witness. He was followed by F. c. Cooke, repre- sentative of William A. Brady, and I. N. Miller local superln tendent of the Western Union Te.egraph Go. Their testimony was of no special Interest. Fenton H. Lawson, one of the Saen- gerfest directors, was then called and was still on the stand when court was adjourned last evening. He proved an unsatisfactory witness with q poor RemoTy. The plaintiffs tried to show by him that the coming contest was really a prize fight, in that Jefries wrested the title of champion of the prize ring from ;that Fitz won it from Corbett; that the latter won it from Sullivan. and so on. The defense cOntended that there never had been prize fighter since Sullivan. Plaintiffs insisted otherwise, stating that the title is handed down from fighter to fighter as a crown descends from monarch to monarch. It is cov- eted and as ambitiously sought.
 There is q clause in the contract for the contest to the effect that if Ruhlin had lost his battle with Maher in De cember last at Philadelphia, Thomas Sharkey was to be substituted against Jeffries. MT Maxwell tried to Intro duce a newspaper containing an ac- count of this battle, which Ruhlin won and which Maxwell stated was par tially brutal. He tried to get Lawson to identify 1t as an article he had read. Defense objected strenuously. Wit ness could not identify it and the court ruled it out. MT Lawson acknowledged that although an officer of the so-called recently organized Saengerfest Ath- letic club, he knew practically nothing of any sport except golf. He said he and former Attorney General Harmon were members of the same golf club.

FOUGHT IN ILLINOIS.

Chicago, Feb 6.-Efforts to frustrate the plans of 300 sporting men to wit ness prize fight in this state between Eddie Croake and Young Peter Jack son were futile. Governor Yates, who was notified of their plans to bring off the bout at Belvidere, telephoned to the sheriff and headed off the fight at that point. Then the sports started for the Wisconsin state line, where they again encountered sheriff acting on orders from Governor La Toilette. A special train in which the crowd had come from Chicago then put back to Gilberts, Kane county, a village with out police other than town marshal. In a small hall ring was formed and the fight pulled off. In the first seven rounds Croake showed up well, but failed to keep up the pace and was knocked out in the twelfth round.

tempt to crush Wilder's company, but
how long did it take before the Wilder
flag was hoisted over that boat. Let
the freight question be settled first,
and then the advocates of small farm
ers may be able to talk nationally. We
will give an instance to Show the I'M
possibility for the small farmer to
compete with importers of goods from
California, owing to the rates OF
freight. A merchant in Hamakua re-
ceived an invoice of goods from Ho-
nelulu. Freight, landing expenses and
carriage amounted to $50 %, exclusive
of the freight on the invoice from San
Francisco-.to Honolulu. He received
exactly the same goods via 1ilo and
mis- expenses We're $4S. 80 The differ
ence between these figures evidently
went into the treasury of the steam
ship company. Where, then, is the
small farmer, who must depend upon
Honolulu for a market, to come In, as
long as he is at the mercy of the
steamship trust? We oppose the plant
ers because We claim they want too
high 2 dividends and pay too small
wages. But under existing conditions
sugar is the only salvation of Hawaii

SOME OLD TIME
ENGLISH CARTOONS
interesting Exhibition in Windows
of Pacific Hardware
Store.

In one of the display windows of. the
Pacific Hardware Company is set of
four very rare original cartoons dating
from two centuries back. They are the
work of an unknown caricaturist, whose
initials, 'F.S.," are the only Identify
LA. c. Parish of this city, and were
presented to his grandfather early in
the nineteenth century by the artist.
Original caricatures of the eighteenth
century are rare curiosities nowadays
and Mr.. Parish prizes his art collection
very highly. They caricature the Brit
ism ministry of England of 1880 and de-
pct the troubles of the French nation
While she was in the throes of the great
rev olution OF the last decade of the
eighteenth century. One is labelled.
Concerto Coalitionale drawn in 1855,
and published by Thomas Carol. At
this time the reason for the caricature
is not apparent, but it was evidently
apropos when placed before the public
more than hundred years ago. John

peace offering to the Convention" is
evidently dedicated to the condition of
affairs existing in France under the
Revolution Patriotic Burghers At
lacking the House of Orange" is
crude drawing. the object of which is
not readily understood. This was drawn
in 1887. Recruit for Opposition from
the Temple of British Worthless seems
to be a caricature of a prominent figure
in English politics. Mr.. Parish has no
history of any of the pictures. In the
collection is also very pretty etching
of Clifton suspension bridge made II
1887 by w. R. Hutchins. Quite a num-
Der. Honolulans have made offers for
the cartoons since they have been eX-
hibited, but they cannot be bought.
