time. however. the scene of the con- 1ict will be in England and the Amer ican boxer will be pftted against Pat Daly. the English lightweight cham pion. At the request of Dr Ordway, the representative of the National Sporting club in this country, ,Erne came to New York from Buffalo, He arrived at II o'clock last night and pro- ceeded to the Gilsey house, where he had brief conference with Ordway and Al Smith. In less than fifteen min utes Erne was matched to box Daly for a purse of S2,5O0 at 13S pounds, weigh in at the ringside. The former said to-day on the Hamburg American steamship Graf Waldersee. Erne will spend day at Zurich, Switzerland, his birthplace, before he proceeds to Lon don. He expects to reach the English capital about three weeks before the mill. Joe Cans. who knocked out Erne in one round last Monday night at Fort Erie, thereby winning the title, was to have been Daly's opponent. but his manager Al Hereford, could not agree to terms. Ordway received letter from s'Parson" Davies, dated New Or leans, yesterday. Davies stated that he had taken Bob Armstrong, the negro heavyweight, again under his wing and that he would sail with him and a wrestler in about q weeks time. This now assures a meet between Denver Ed Martin, Billy Madden's protege, who sailed for England about ten days ago, and Armstrong. The pair will box fifteen rounds.

In batting there are three men now on the team who are over the 300 mark, those three are Slater, Kiernan and Fitzpatrick. Of. the other players with the team Weisbecker. Luskey, Robinson and Clancy are doing the best work with. the stick all being lover the 200 mark. Those doing the poorest batting are Henry, Lindemann. fMcCormack and Waller who are 200 for less.
 l Tn fielding there is one man on the team with a clean record, Clancy, who I has the 1000 mark. Slater is close be ] hind and the others who go above the 900 mark are Luskey, Fitzpatrick, Rob inson, Mccormack, Waller, Lindemann and Weisbecker. Henry stands in the SOO's and Kiernan below the 800 mark. with two won and one lost. Waller and Lindemann are tied each having won one out of five. From the above

 Expires Suddenly.
 Bow Bells, 2:l9A, one of the most distinguished sons of Electioneer, and of the greatest of brood mares, Beau tiful Bells, died suddenly at Charter Oak park yesterday. He had been logged as usual during the morning and was apparently free from distress of any kind. Shortly afterwards he dropped dead without the slightest warning.

THE BIC COAL STRIKE
Mitchell Opens Headquarters
 at Wilkesbarre.
SITUATION REMAINS UNCHANGED.
Action May Re Taken to Stop Ship ments of Soft Coal Into Anthra- cite Territory-Miners Leav-
 ing the Coal Region.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, May 20.- President John Mitchell of the United Mine Workers of America arrived here shortly after o'clock last night and established strike headquarters at the Hotel Hart. He was met at the station by several of the local leaders, who held a brief conference with him. The national president spent quiet though busy day in his quarters at Hazleton. He had no visitors and said he had no news to give out. He added, however, that as far as the miners side of the controversy was concerned the situa- ton had not changed in the least.
 On the run up from Hazleton MT. Mitchell's attention was called to the fact that the city of Philadelphia had contracted for a supply of bituminous coal to take the place of<the anthracite which had been cut off by the railroad companies furnishing it. In reply to a question as to whether the mine work CTS would attempt to prevent the ship ment of soft coal to places where hard coal is used he said, Considering the proposition in q general way, l will say that we do not desire to make any city a victim or have any person suffer be- cause of our quarrel with the coal com panies."
 He was pressed for more explicit statement, but he refused to go into it any deeper, except that it was matter which wo.lld have to be settled by the three executive boards of the anthra- cite fields.
 They will meet here on Wednesday. Judging by. the actions of the union during the last strike when efforts were made to stop the shipment of soft coal into anthracite territory, it is not unlikely that the miners may take
 similar action within the next few days.
 Two carloads of foreigners have left
 the Hazleton region. Most of them were booked for New York, whence
 they will sail for their native lands. Some of the foreigners will seek work in the bituminous region.

Finally Foley agreed to handicap liar vey and throw him twice in one hour at catch weights. Harvey jumped at this and the following articles were signed yesterday:

Waterbury Democrat., 1902-05-20

Jeffries and Fitzsimmons are still en-
 gagged in talking over the conditions for the battle for the heavyweight pugilis- tic championship. Jeffries has made some new provisions which it is alto
 gether likely the Cornishman will not agree to. The champion now says that the entire purse shall be awarded to the winner. Fitzslmmons has steadily
 refused to sign articles of agreement which did not provide that at least 40
 per cent of the purse should go to the
 loser. The friends of Fitzsimmons
 claim that Ieffries has done this be-
 cause he does not wish to again face
 the Hermit of Bensonhurst.'' Since
 arriving in San Francisco Jeffries has
 declared he must have eight weeks in
 which to train, though before he left
 Los Angeles he said he expected the
 contest would be decided some time
 during July. The former boiler maker also refuses to allow the Cornishman
 to wear bandages on his hands, though he did not object to that clause in the
 articles that both men signed in New
 York. Jeffries has developed sudden tendency to insist upon having Cali-
 fornian act as referee, though Fitzsim- mons has never made any objection to having Pacific coast man act An- other ultimatum of the champion is 1 that the contest must be decided in Los
 Angeles if the Century Athletic club of that city makes the highest bid. From present indications the match Is las far away as 1t has ever been.

New Healer Cures
Without Charge

NILES. Mich, Feb. 10.-John Crit
ht, aged "A, who until recently lived in
oDscurity, has now attained notoriety
by marvellous cures he has effected.
Gritiit was never baptised ana is not
a member OF any religious denomin-
alton, but his cures are performed by
the laying on of hands and the ac-
compartment OF prayer.
He is uneducated, unsophisticated
and not unusually intelligent. He
charges nothing for his services. His
first cure that brought him into prom
lnence was that of horse afflicted by
tumor, and the second that of a
young woman who suffered from
goitre. In both cases Griffit procured
speedy cure.
He Is visited by visions and believes
everything he dreams. He will at
tempt cures only between the full and
new moon and at night. His cures
now amount to more than four-hund-
red. and sih home Is besieged
sick and MANNED A peculiar forma.
tion of his left hand makes 1t resem-

Methodist church, has been conducting
meetings here and secured Mrs. EN-
ma Dugan. of Chicago. to assist him.

CHANCES ARE GOOD THAT MOORD
WILL BE APPOINTED MARSHAL.
Daniels Commission Recalled and Daniels
Himself Cannot Be Located by the
Authorities.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 10.-It
is practically settled here that Ben
Daniels will not be permitted to serve
as marshal Of Arizona.
The Department of Justice has been
fortified with ample proof that Dan
iels Is all that the newspapers have
been painting him for a couple of
weeks past.
The commission of Daniels which
was mailed to Phoenix, Arizona, has
been recalled, and no doubt will be
cancelled as soon as II Is received here.
The President is very much disap-
pointed. Before leaving here Saturday
evening he had a long conference with
the Attorney General and admitted
that he nad been deceived and humi-
lated by Daniels. He ordered the At
torney General under no circumstance
to permit Daniels to discharge any of
the duties of the Office.
Daniels has not been heard from for
ten days or more. No one seems to
know where he is and ths impression
prevails that he Is hiding out. He
probably fears to communicate with
the President knowing that the secret
of his past has been fully revealed.
The President has about determined
to continue Marshal McCord In the
ONCE. McCord has a strong friend now
In the Cabinet in the person of Post
master General Payne and II is known
that Payne has earnestly urged
the President to appoint McCord. The
President has no general objection to
McCord, and understands that he has
the duties of the Office
satisfactorily. The Wisconsin Senator'S
and Representatives have Endorsed Nc
Cord strongly and the belief grows
strong that the President will appoint
him within a few days.
