The taking of the team to West Baden

hobbies. Another is that the team will

recovered enough to not only stall off Daily

ever, seemed to have made Sullivan slow in
his leg work, as attested by the ease with
which Daily dropped him in a rush in the

Daily Given the Decision.

Tommy Daily was awarded the decision
over Kid Sullivan in fifteen rounds at the
Germania Maennerchor Hall, Baltimore,
last night before the members Of the Eu-
reka Club 1t was great form reversal
and complete surprise to the packed
house. Sullivan had won a decision over
Daily and had done many other things that
made him favorite as good as 2 to 1. The
battle proved that DAILY is not only one of
the cleverest fighters, but one of the best
ring generals in the country
1t also showed that Kid Sullivan was not
as speedy as in his previous battles in that
city. The crowd of Washington people who
went over to see their champion battle at
tributed his comparative slowness to the
fact that he had but recently returned from
San Francisco. where he helped prepare Joe
Cans for his battle with Britt.
In the twelfth round DAILY caught Sulli-
van squarely on the jaw with right swing.

EARLY SETTLEMENT
AT PORT READING
I NOW ANTICIPATED.

The trouble at the Port Reading
coal docks is expected to end within
a day or two now, and it is probable
that every man will return to his
position which he left because the
brakemen and conductors refused to
longer work under the night yard
master. This official, it is understood,
has been removed and the onlv ques-
tion to be settled is taking back all
the men.
R. Fl. Huff, chairman of the EN-
pIoyes' Committee, said this morning
that the brotherhood was in no way
affected by the situation. He said it
was simply a matter between the
employees at Port Reading and the
officials of that road.
The local lodge of the union, the
Ira B. Tice lodge, will meet tomorrow
and the situation will be thoroughly
explained. The impression had gone
abroad that a general strike of all
union men might be called, but there
is no danger of this.
The whole matter in a nut shell is
that the men refused to longer work
under the night yardmaster because
they said he was abusive. They cir
culated a petition asking for his re-
moval and this was presented to the
company. The employees speak in the
highest terms of the superintendent
at the docks, F. J. Barrett, and the
day yardmaster, Mr.. Broughton. Sat
isfactory conferences have been held
and settlement is ut hand, it is said.
The company has been able to move
but few cars since the trouble started.

OLD TRIANGLE WAS
OUT 10 ASSIST IN
NEW YEARS WELCOME.

The advent of the year 1904 was
marked in this city by much noise and
celebrating. Three balls, twice as
many small parties, two or three lodge
celebrations. three watchnight SER
vices, the ringing of church bells and
the blowing of factory whistles, served
to make the occasion a memorable
one.
Starting shortly after 11.30 O'Clock,
the whistles at several of this city's
factories and works commenced blow
ing and kept it up until the new year
was safely installed in the calendar.
The chimes of Simpson M. e. church
and the bell of st. Peters Episcopal
church added their share to the din,
in which 80 many sources played a
part that no one of them could be dis
tinguished.
Several members of Washington
Hose Company resurrected from it's
hiding place the old triangle. over
which SO many historic BATTLES have
been fought. and, mounting it ON q
wagon, carted it about the city for
some time, meanwhile keeping up a
continuous changing. The old scarp
of metal was then again hidden.
Many people were abroad on the
principal streets, armed with tin horns
and other instruments of ear torture
and they kept up their noise for over
an hour.
In the Eagle Athletic Club house at
the corner OF. Smith and Hobart
streets, the members enjoyed their
announced treat and large number
of the Young Mems Forum members
saw the old year out in the new club
rooms in the Kitohel building on High
street.
In Simpson M. E. church the watch
night service commenced at 10. 80
O'Clock and continued until after mid
night. The Danish Methodists held
forth in their church which was
crowded. The services commenced at
9. 80 and continued until we'll after IL
O'Clock. Henry Jacobsen, on behalf
of the congregation, presented the
pastor, Rev. Andrew Hansen, with q
silk stocking containing nearly $1C0.
The pastor, j. P. Holm and several
other gentlemen made short addresses.
There was similar service in the
Salvation Army hall, on Smith street,
which was attended by many people.
