SIX DAY "PEDs." :"
Andrew Montray, a Physical Wreck,
 Is Tn a Dangerous Condition.


 Is Tn a Dangerous Condition.
 Philadelphia, Feb 2S.-The pace that kills marks the going ia the six day go as you please match. Of the forty starters only. dozen remain. and of these three are in bad physical and worse mental shape.
 Click is .soff;' "Pedlar" Craig wants to fight every policeman in sight, and Pat Cavanaugh, who leads the thin, dirty line of tired travellers, is far from well. He Is fighty, and 1t is with difficulty that his trainers can keep him to his task.
 Click had run-in with the Indian, Davis, yesterday, but apologized and is struggling as he never has done be- fore to regain third place from Hegel- man, who Is holding on with the ten acity of life itself. The running of these two men is really the great fea- ture of the show. Davis is popular with the crowd. and his every effort to cut down bhe lead of his rivals is re- ceived with enthusiastic cheers. He gelman is the best finisher in the race, and he, Herty and Dineen are the only thoroughly sound men left.
 Dineen seems content to hold second place, taking chance on Cavanaugh being compelled to leave the track for long rest. Andrew Montray of this city, who started in the race. Is q nhy- sical wreck as a result of his exertIons. He Is at present at the Medico- Chi- rurgical hospital in a critical condition, suffering from congestion of the lungs and general physical collapse.
 Montray seemed to have a chance in the race at the start, but, the pace was too fast, and being unable to stand the strain, he quit the next day. Not will ing to give up altogether, however, he made a bet that he could start agadn on Thursday morning and make 200 miles before the match closed Saturday night. He went up in the air soon aftec midnight last night and the t,o- lice sent him to the hospital.
 Early yesterday morning "Pedlar', Craig became involved in an argu- ment with a spectator who was chid- ing him, and he jumped the railing and started to make short work of his man. Again the police quieted things. but a few minutes later Pat Cayan- augh had an inning He called upon the police to eject one of the specta- tors. who was having q little enjoy ment at Pats expense.
 Then. to show that he was a little bit unbalanced in his thinking tank, Henry Shelton ran around the track shouting like a deacon at a camp meet ing. x

 Philadelphia, Feb 2S. Charley Nc Keever made punching bag of the Italian champion, Joe Grim, at the Ariel Athletic club last night, but could not knock him out. From beginning to end he dealth the Tuscan swings and jabs enough to have finished half a dozen ordinary men, but he would have needed sledge hammer to have put Grim down for the necessary ten seconds. The latter, though terribly beaten, was never groggy. Appar- ently it will take Jeff1fes to break his record of never having been put to sleep. McKeever fought cleverly and did not receive more than half dozen blows. One of these, a wild swing in the fourth, cut his eye. Grim fought with a Jeffries crouch, and after the third round cut up all his famous. an | tics.
 After reading the accounts of the Young Corbett- -Hanlon fight yesterday, Terry McGovern decided that his own defeat by Young Corbett was n fiuke. Twenty rounds and not d clean knock down in the fig0lt,'' said he. And still they tell you Young Corbett has the punch and that he knows how to land it. If had got to him as often as Hanlon did there'd have been some thing doing for the coroner. I don't need so many openings, and think there'll be different story to tell when Young Corbett and get together again Sam Harris. McGovern's manager, said last night that he had accepted the offer made by the Hayes Valley Athletic club of San Francisco for 8 fight between McGovern and Cor bett, and that he would leave for the coast to arrange final details on We'd nesday next if he could get Benny Yam ger to agree to postpone his bout with Terry for three weeks. The present plan Is to have Terry and Young Cor bett meet before the Hayes Valley club in the latter part of March. l Word was received in New York yes- terday that Champion Jeffries would leave Columbus, Ohio, to-day for New York, in order to be present at the meeting arranged between Delaney, his manager, and Jim Corbett for to- morrow in the Delavan hotel. Delaney, who Is doing the talking for Jeffries, yesterday said that, while the cham l pion prefers finish fight, he will agree to n match with Corbett under any other terms.

ENDING TO TUG-
 OF.WAR CONTEST
A DISAGREEMENT LAST NIGHT
 ARISES AT OPERA HOUSE.
The Tug of War Tournament Comes to a Period All in Minute, and the Contest Is Declared Of By the Management.

Unless different arrangements are made today. the tug of war tourna ment for a purse of s25O frs money and S75 second prize is at an end L. 4. Brown, manager of the tourna ment. so announced last evening The trouble arose after the several teams assembled in the Opera House last evening. For a time bedlam was turned loose, and all four nationali- ties seemed to be talking at once.
 The point at issue was what teams should pull against each other. As announced in the Review of Tuesday morning. the program as fixed on Monday evening following the first contest, provided that on Tuesday night the Swedes should meet the Slavonians and the Irish would pull against the Bisbee team.
 On Tuesday the Swedes objected to this arrangement and contended that it was not fair to ask them to pufI against the Slavonians on Tuesday night, after their hard fought battle of the night previous. The Irish team contended it was "six of one and half a Gozen of the other" and then in true sportsmanlike manner offered to put two numbers in hat and draw to see whether the Swedes or the Irish pulled against the Slavs. This offer was turned town by the Swedes, and as there appeared no way 10 compromise the 1;E ulty, the money was refunded by Manager Brown. ano the crowd nat had as- sembied dispersed.
 The Slavs were on hand, and an nounced ready to meet all corners.
 Manager Brown announced last night that the remaining nights of the tournament had been declared off.
 It is hoped that some way out of the present difficulty will be found today.

AN OLD TIMER
 RETURNS HERE
E! G. NORTON, AN OLD PIONEER OF THIS CITY, IS BACK
 AGAIN.
Has Been Resident of Bsbee for Quarter of a Century-Went Back to Visit His Old Home in the State of Maine--aemarks on the Change in Bisbee Since Last Here.

One Of the oldest pioneers of Bis bee, E. c. Norton, after an absence Of two years and half, has returned to the old camp, where nearly a quarter of a century ago he came with the trail blazers and located in what is now the greatest mining camp in the country. MT. Norton has been away back to visit his old home in Belfast, and to look once more on the tall trees which gives Maine the familiar name of the Pine Tree State.
 Mir. Norton was found by a Review man in a reflective mood, caused by the many large and permanent i'm provements which have been made since he left here nearly three years ago
 When MT. Norton first came to Bis bee there were no houses here at all worthy of mention. He prospected and mined, and accumulated consid- erable property, which he still holds, the Norton House on Main street be- ing enc of his holdings. In the ear ly days, in fact away back in the eighties, MT. Norton was the only peace officer in this vicinity, and many were the experiences he had in those days, many of them being close calls on the length of his existence on this mundane sphere.
 One of these incidents was when a Mexican started in on Tombstone Canyon to shoot up the town. He took a shot at George Tolles. who is the present proprietor of the Red Light saloon in Brewery Gulch. the shot taking effect in Tolles' neck. Previous to this the crazy Mex had killed a man further down the can andx.in.. Rna cmfw cmfw cmfwy yon. Next he proceeded up the can yon and came to the cabin of MT. Nor ton. in which the owner was at the time. and poured five shots into the house coming dangerously near to MT. Norton. Soon however. the cit izen of the land of Diaz was over hauled by a posse of citizens, who had in the meantime procured rope, and with the calm of a march to a church, they took MT. Mexican and strung him to tree just above where the water pipe crosses the road in Tombstone Canyon at the present time. Judge Lewis and friend were driving. over from Tombstone shortly after the hanging. and in the dusk of the evening saw the dangling body suspended from the tree, and the Judge whispered to his friend, tremb- ling the while: What is that ON that tree?" His friend replied: "Oh, that's nothing; we grow those kind of things on the trees here occa- sionally, when the season is favora- ble" MT. Norton and Bob Spalding were paid five dollars to cut down the hanging Mexican the day after the lynching. which they did. MT. Nor ton climbing the tree to sever the rope.
 MT. Norton will remain here for a time renewing acquaintances, and will later return to Maine.

years, with a determined face and
eyes as black as his hair, he was Il
type of the fearless men who rs sher-
IFS did SO much to bring order out of
the chaos Of the early days In the
then far west.
.Thc feeling against Josselyn was
intense. While he had II number of
friends who loved him ardently out
of sheer admiration for his merit, II
majority of the people felt thnt Jos
selyn had killed one of their most
distinguished citizens. They took it
as personal insult that SO noted u
man should die with his boots on ut
the hands of IL dude tenderfoot. This
sentiment against losselyn was car
fully fostered in every conceivable
way, until the whole community was
divided into rival factions. A few
maintained Josselyn's innocence;
the rest demanded his immediate
conviction and execution.
"Lynching, however, was not to be
thought of with Sheriff Coon in
charge of the prisoner. In due
course of time the trial was held,
with as much formality us circum-
stances permitted. it was full of in
tercsting incidents, chief of which
was the report Of the jury that they
failed 10 agree, standing niue for con-
viction and three for acquittal, thus
rejecting popular sentiment. The
demand for Josselyn's life at once be-
came so Irresistible that the sheriff
spirited him away in the night to
Denver, where he was confined until
Il new trial was held, nearly Il year
Inter-
The narrative continued ut length,
describing the trial, etc. but where
ever Sheriff Coon'sname is mentioned
it either says or implies that he was
IL fearless; official, at all times serving
the people conscientionsly and with
out favor.
