a draw before a large crowd at the

whirlwind fight from start TO finish.

ment The men fought so hard in the
first three rounds that they came to
the centre Of the ring in the fourth
looking very tired. In the sixth round
Hart looked a trihe fresher than
Choynski. Hart quickly took advan-
tage of this and hit Choynsld with his
right and left almost at will The lat
ter was weakening rapidly and was
little groggy. until thirty seconds from
the end of the round, when he rallied.
He rushed at Hart and smashed him
frequently with his right. Hart. weak

the round, was unable to Withstand

by Senator Bacon as a substitute for

met immediate rejection. II was at
this point that some Of the senator's
withdrew from the caucus.
z Two compromise plans were sug@
gested. The first was offered by Sem
ator Newlands. who proposed that the

hold q conference with a committee
of Democratic men bers of the house

4 Sharpe Williams. the house minority
leader. for the purpose Of preparing
some party policy on all matters which
viii come before the senate IN the ---x; ex-
traordinary session. This resolution
was antagonized on the ground that
the Democrats Of the house already
have adopted their program in relation
10 the Cuban reciprocity enabling act
and that any opinion the house may
have on the canal treaty could not
affect the position of the senate.
II was said by a leading member Of
the senate Democratic steering COM
mittee that the minority party IN all
probability will meet the question Of
canal. legislation without organization
OF any kind. and will act according to
individual opinions.
