The Corpse as Lifelike as if

Yanger and MOWatt to Meet IN
Chicago Monday Night.
Match Is Arranged After Much
Dickering and Argument.
FIGHT AT 1876 POUNDS.
Have Already Fought Three
Very Close Battles.
Man Who Defeats Italian Will
Be Fistic Wonder.

Chicago, Jan. 17.-After two days of
argument and dickering. including
some heavy telegraph tolls between
Chicago and San Francisco, where
Benny Yangers manager has been
staying, the American club finally
clinched the Yanger- -Mowatt match for
next Monday night.
The old rivals, who have already
fought three of the hardest and most
determined battles ever seen in local
rings, will meet at 126 pounds-a weight
much more to the liking of the stock
yards man than the terms of their last
combat When they met at the Ameri-
can club three months ago MoWatt had
to do 127 pounds at the ringside and
was SO drawn that his ribs showed like
barrel hoops. He viii weigh 131 or
more at the ringside this time and
ought to be strong as a bull, but this
does not worry the Italian, who has
taken on some weight on his own hook
in the last few moons.
Mowatt was selected to meet the un-
defeated feather weight after much
consideration was given Billy Maynard,
Eddie Toy and Hughey McPadden to
go on against Yanger.
The rivalry between MOwatt and
Yanger, coupled with the odd fact that
Yanger, though able to best men who
seemed better than MoWatt. has never
had1anything on the conductor insures
not only fast and determined battle,
but big attendance of both the clubs

The man who beats Benny Yanger can
get about anything he wants through
the whole country, as well as in Chi

Jaek Munroe in Nov York.

New York, Jan 17.-s'He's a very like

think he's got a chance with any of the
big fellows" Such is the opinion of
sam Harris, McGovern's manager, on
Jack Munroe of Montana Munroe, ac-
companied by Clark Ball, is here from
Buffalo. He was met at the Grand Cen
tral station by Sam Harris and a dele
cation of sporting men and writer's. The
party drove to the Lafayette baths,
where Munroe stripped and went into
the plunge. Later he went to the Union
Square hotel. which will be his head
quarters Munroe said:
II m going to fight Sharkey first With
me it's first come, first served, and
Sharkey sent me the first challenge by
telegraph. I am willing to go doyn the
line, winding up with Jeffries if a match
can be arranged. Jeffries is slower
than 1 am. I think / can beat him.
At great length Munroe went over his
four rounds with Jefries. Next week
Munloe will appear in The Road to

arrange his matches with Sharkey and
others and incidentally accept a few of

ton in the matter. Dodge did not
think 1t right to leave a human body in
such state so notified Commissioner
Naeher, who sent word to Carthaus to
remove it and bury in the county lot
at Mt. Muncie.
The body was brought to the city
yesterday and when the lid of the iron
casket was removed, was found to be
almost as lifelike as if buried yester-
day The foOtstone found near the
casket was also brought to the city. It
has chiseled on 1t the date, 1857. There
are no marks or records by which the
remains may now be identified.
The cemetery on Pilot Knob was
abandoned in the early 70's when
Greenwood was laid out and few bodies
were inferred on top of the hill after
1875 The majority of caskets used in
the early days were of iron and when
the waterworks company built the
reservoir there a large number Of cas-
kets were taken up and re-interred in
the other cemeteries of Leavenworth
but great number of the bodies were
not disturbed.
The rains have gradually been wash

present time a large number of caskets
now open and containing but few bones
