THE FAkEST OF FIGHTS
The Extraordinary Exhibition by
 Ryan and Root.

Philadelphia, Nov. 23.-The fight be-
 tween Tommy Ryan. the middle weight
 pugilist, and Jack Root, of Chicago.
 the light weight. which was scheduled
 to go six rounds at the National Ath-
 letic club tonight, was ended in the
 middle of the fourth round by Referee Jack NIcGuisan, announcing it a fake.
 It was one of the most unsatisfactory pugulistic affairs ever held in this city and the spectators, long before the ref cree stopped the bout. showed their dis approval of the exhibition the men were giving Trouble was averted by the prompt work of the police in jump ing into the ring and protecting the fighters and in clearing, the hall The managers of. both fighters
 vehemently protested against the ac- ton of the referee. out they found few ] sympathizers in the crowd. The men did nothing more than feint for nearly
 a full minute in the opening round
 which was follow ed by light ex- change of blows which left no marks on the fighters The spectators began 10 hiss the men toward the end of the round and as they took their corners a storm of disapproval was hurled at them.
 In the second round not a solid blow was struck All through the second round the crowd hissed and kept it up after the round ended. The third round was so palpably poor that Referee Me ! Guigan leaned against the ropes and waved his hands in disgust at the l fighters attempt to mix it up. After ! two minutes and twenty seconds Of the round had elapsed Root swung on Ryan and the latter dropped to the floor to avoid it.
 At this action the referee turned his l back on the men and the spectators ! became very noisy. Ryan got oh one l knee and. seeing that the referee was not tolling off the seconds the fighters went to their cornersH The confusion was great. At the expiration of the three minutes the bell rang. but in stead of sitting in their corners the men thought it was the beginning of the fourth round
 The referee let them go
 1 He watched the men mix up a little and then walked over to where the newspaper men were seated and told them Root had just told Ryan ito mix l it up" He watched them again at tempting to land blows, which they did without damage and after one minute and thirty-three seconds had elapsed | he jumped through the ropes and left | the men in the ring alone. His action
 met with the approval of the crowd The moment McGuigan left the men,
 a half hundred policemen under the l command of a captain, surrounded the ring. Ryan and Root stood in their | respective corners, not knowing what to do and evidently afraid to leave the arena for fear Of harm at the hands
 of the disappointed crowd. Suddenly a .r-
 from the gallery dropped in the middle
 of the ring. A score of policemen
 climbed through the ropes and waved
 their hands for the crowd to calm
 down. When tIe police had gained
 control Ryan and Root were led to
 their dressing rooms under heavy es-
 cort.

erected several strong barriers through which the defense will have to batter its way to secure the acquittal of Miss Patterson, he had no fear that they would not succeed. He asserted that he would bring forward a witness who would tell a convincing story of hav- ing actually seen the shooting. no mat ter how strong the evidence of people to the effect that no one was within the range of vision of the cab when the fatal shot was fired.
 This witness was a passenger on a street car passing across West Broad way, a short distance from the scene of the tragedy he said, and in his narrative he will swear that from where he stood though his glance was but mcmentary, he saw Nan Patter- sbn's companion in a cab grasping a revolver in his hand and struggling with young woman, who was endeav- bring to wrest it from him.
 Before the opening of today's pro- ceedings, MT. Rand announced that none of the most important witness would be called before Monday and that the greater part of today would be taken up with the expert testimony of physicians and other witnesses by whom it will be attempted to prove
 
 self. While vitally important to the prosecutiOn's case this testimony will not have the human interest motive that will be found In the narratives of Mrs. Young, John Millin, the book makers former partner and a dozen other witnesses.
 ! The skeleton, which was brought in, l to the case yesterday for the use Of the coroner's physician in describing 1 the course of the bullet which caused l Young's death, was again brought into ! the court room when the trial was re- sumed today. The ghastly exhibit Wa s suspended near the witness stand when ! MT. Levy, for the defense continued | the cross examination Of the cCroucr s ! physician, which was interruptedS 'by 1 the adjournment of the court yester- day afternoon.
 | MT. Levy in his cross examination ! led Dr. O'Hanlon back over the ground ! covered in his direct testimony yes ] terday. The witness described in de- tail the autopsy which he performed ! on Young's body.
 'If you had regarded the case as one of homicide would you have made i . more careful examination?' asked : Mir. Levy.
 q did not so regard it then as a 1 case of homicide
 Did you regard it as a case of sui ! cfde?"
 q did, % the witness replied.
 pr. O'Hanlon said that while per forming the autopsy he found three black marks on the second finger oi ] Youngs right hand and he stripped of . pieces of skin, which were turned ovel to the district attorney. The witness was not permitted to answer a question as to whether the black marks were made by gun powder or not.
 Another question as to whether hC found any indication of gun powder when he examined Nan Patterson's hands soon after the shooting also met with an objection from the prosccu ton and the court directed the wit 1 ness not to answer. At the conclusion ! of Dr. O'Hanlon's examination that part of his testimony in which he said ] that he considered the case to be one of suicide and not homicide when he ! performed the autopsy was stricken from the record on motion Of Afr ], Rand.

A Orasd Reunion.

Tho fourteenth annual reunion
Of the colored people Of Mont
gcmeFy county, which took place
1t Sleight's grove near Montgom-
cry City. Saturday, August 18th,
was one OF the most successful
gatherings Of tho colored people
that has ever been held In this
county. For many years It has been
the custom OF the residents hereof
and former residents Of the county
10 meet here and hold what IL
known asthc Old Settlers Reunion,
and NO great has become the celc-
bration when Announced that peo-
ple look forward to Il as q holiday
In which all should take part. The
committee In charge OF Affairs this
year madc ample preparations for
the event, and had provided ex-
cellcnt accommodations for many
visitors from all parts Of the = tate.
At an early hour people began
coming from the ncighboring
towns and settlements throughout
the county. and each train brought
large numbers from both east and
west. All tho surrounding COUNT
les we're well represented aud the
attendance included many from
st. Louis, Kansas City. Illinois,
Kansas and most Of the intermcd-
late points between Kansas City
and 81. Louis. The exercises ~
the day consisted Of a meeting Of
the Old Settlers and u picnic aud
general good time mt the grove
n mile south Of town. Fully 5000
people were present. probably the
largest crowd In the history Of the
reunion. One thing that added
much 10 the pleasure 81 the occas-
ion was the excellent music furn-
i-hcd by the Montgomery City
band. Very few towns the Size Of
this place ARE able to furnish such
excellent music ~ was rendered
by this band on this occasion.
The committee ot arrangements
should bc~ commended Tor securing
their services. Saturday the 18th
inst. truly marked the fourteenth
annual reunion these Old Settlers,
and which was n decided success.

Missouri and the confedcracy.

George q. Vests death will
revive the old notion that Mis-
souri seeded from the Union IN
1861. The biographies OF the late
senator tell that he was a member
of the confederate congress-, aud.
ns he was n resident Of Missouri ut
the time Of the rebellion. II will be
naturally assumed that this state
went through the motions Of get
NnR out Of the Union. Every few
months somebody o other, In call
ing the roll OF the states belonging
Ia the Jcn Davis regime. mem
lions Missouri as one OF them.
But they are In error.
a body calling Itself the lcgisla-
turc of Missouri met In Ncosho. In
the southwestern part OF the state.
in the latter part OF 1851. under u
call by Claiborne y. Jackson, who
pretended 10 be governor of Mis-
souri. That body went through
the form OF passing m ordinance
al secession and the Richmond au-
ihoritics went through the motion
oi adm itting Missouri to the con-
i%cderacy. In this way Mr.. Vest
and various other persons from
fhi- state were In Richmond Mt one
time and another between the lat
ter end OF 1851 and the final SMASH
up IN the spring of 1915.
But here are a few points which
show that Missouri was never "a
member Of the conicdcracy. The
legislature which pretended To
take Missouri out oi the Union In
the latter part Of 1861 surrendered
the right II determining Missouri's
relations Ia the national govern
ment In the early days Of 1861 to a
convention elected by the people.
That convention, by Il majority OF
So,utu rolled up for its Unlonist
members. decided oycrw hclmingly
in favor OF clinging to the Union.
The state furnished troops under
Lincoln's calls, although Claiborne
y. jackson refused to provide any.
When Jackson in the summer oi
1851, mnde war upon the Union.
the convention dcposcd him and
appointed Gambler his place as
provisional governor. jackson
was not governor OF Missouri when
bo called the legislature Ia session

the capital OF the state then or w.
or. Ncosho was selected because
II could be- under the protection OF
Sterling Prices rebel army. The
jackson Legislature lacked "a quo
rum In each branch. Its ordinan-
ccs, statutes, resolutions bound no.
body aud counted for nothing.
Missouri V belonged to the
confederacy. Mr.. Vest and his
associates from this section had AZ
little right to talk for this state In
