RYAN WHIPS CARTER.
End Brought About in the Sixth
Round.

Rindside, Fort Erie, Sept. 16.-Tom-
my Ryan may be the veteran of the
middle weights in the prize ring, but
he is still far from a back number.
Tonight in the arena Of the Fort Erie
club in a vicious, bruising fight. he
knocked out Kid Carter, of Brooklyn,
in the last minute of the sixth round.
The Knockout was clean and decisive
and came chiefly as the result of the
generalship which enabled him thru
out to steadily evade or Withstand the
heavy onslaughts of his opponent.
Sturdy and heavy hitting, full of ener-
gy, confidence and ambition, Carter
was no mean opponent. In fact he
hustled Ryan thruout the fight, forcing
him from corner to corner with wicked
lurges which effectually destroyed any
effort on the part of Ryan to box pref
tily. Forced to fight. Ryan finally went
at the game as few can. He stunE
and stabbed Carter until he had him
bleeding and bewildered and then sew
eral well placed right arm iolts on the
law tumbled the husky young fellow,
"a bleeding mass of senseless humanity,
to the rosin. Carter fought gamely
,and tried hard, but suffered about all
the visible punishment that was noted
during the bout. Such men as Mccoy.
Jack O'Brien and others looked with
amazement on the Kansas City mans
work tonight While the bout was too
short to sufficiently test Tommy's enr
!durance there was nothing very ter
rifyinp to hackers in the Weariness ho

ture OF the fight put UP by Carter pres
vented Tommy from displaying. at its
best his well-known footwork. but he

ness and forbids others en- .,g the
trains of the depots. An 4, r Des
Moines firm has demande lie same
rights at the depots as :. favored
firm. The railroad comniss ,ners have
been appealed to for an order. The
commissioners find that the decisions
OF the higher courts have held to the
idea that transfer business is, or may
be, part of Interstate commerce bus
mess and therefore not subject to the
regulation Of the state railroad COM

that the commission can do
lis to require that where one person
is granted rights In or around de-
pot others must be granted some rights.
The Des Moines firm making an at
tempt to break the rule threatens to go
into the courts for yindication.
It was supposed that the controversy
into which the state was thrown by q
suit at keokuk involving the building
of partition fence at the Fort Madison
|penitentiary. had been ended by the
refusal of the court to entOin Warden
Jones and the board of control from
interfering with him in the building
of the fence. But r. r. Currier, the
plaintiff in the case, has appealed to the
supreme court for reversal of Judge
Hughes, or q modification to permit
of bringing the suit in some other form.
Currier claimed rights on the state
land which was disputed and he sought

pealing for contributions in aid of a
proposed home for x-confederates in

following the lead of great many 9TH

the Torrance circular and suggested
contributions from Iowa. The Grand
Army men have generally endorsed the
idea and they have no doubt that II
contributions are sent from Iowa they
will be gladly accepted by those who
are working for the help OF the aged
and infirm ex-confederates in the south.
But the members OF the Union Veter-

Of Loss Caused by the

roo EARLY YET TO DETERMINE
Most Optimistic Admits the Damage
Has Been Considerable, But condi-
tons Differ Greatly in Closely Re-

Has Been Saved in Iowa.

Special to Times Republican.
i Des Moines. Sept. 16.-With the re-
turn of warmer weather and more fav-
orabie conditions for the ripening of
the grain In the state of Iowa those
who are closely watching weather and
crop conditions are taking heart again.
But the most optimistic of the crop
observers admit that the frosts of last
week did a great deal OF irreparable
damage to the crops of Iowa The
cold wave covered the whole state and
the damage on the south line was all
most as great as at any part OF the
north half Of the state. This Is because
crops are not so far advanced in the
south as in the north. The greatest
damage, according to reports received
here, was in the north central part of
the state, where fine crops We're put In
late and work was retarded by the
backward weather of midsummer.
But 1t Is as yet too soon to make an
estimate of the damage done, said
Mr.. Sage of the state weather and crop
bureau last evening. The reports
from the state vary greatly. Cores
pondents say they are not yet able to
determine whether or not the corn has
been killed or has sufficient life to fill
out. Then the frost differed greatly
even in small areas and one field would
he badly frost bitten and another not
far away would be comparatively un-
injured. II the corn has sufficient vi
.tality left to fill out the damage will
prove to have been slight. but fear
that much OF the corn has been killed
and the ears Will be lost. There has
not been much fodder cut this year.
either, and that is another bad thing.
The farmers could not cut their fodder.
It was green and the wet weather
would have prevented 1t from curing
nicely. The value of fodder this year
is sss ssei d less than usual. The quality
II very poor as compared With, last
year. believe that the straw OF last
year was worth far more ton for ton
than the average hay cut of this year"
