a DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGHT
The following is tbo Salt r,1,a II,

The following is the Salt Lake Her
aids account of the fight between
Morgan Williams. of this city and
Bob Watkins, of San Francisco. n
negro, which took place on Monday
night at Park City Utah:
In the second boxing contest pull
ed on in Park City this year. the
game was given a great upward lift
by these fights. II must be said. how
ever. that Kid Price was outclassed
when he went up against Indian Joe
of Ogden, as the Indian was too heavy
and the Kid showed n tendency to
hold him. Joe got the decision, how
ever, and the crowd was satisfied
Before the main event Kid Nc
Alilster koncked out Kid I've at the
end of the second round.
In the main event. Watkins and
Williams agreed to fight straight rul-
es. and it must be said that in this
Watkins was at n disadvantage. while
the white boy clearly showed his SUI
reriority, frequently using the kid
ney blow, which did so much to down
Christie in the last contest.
Watkins. however. was game at all
times and carried the fight to Will
liams, although he seemed unable to
spend much time worrying over Wat
kins' face. but contented himself with
his wind and stomach. and in the
fifth round knocked the Colored man
down for the count with left, which
landed squarely in the solar pleXus,
and tile fight was over.
THIS evening was a marked con-
trast with the last contest held here
when the prices were excessive and
the bout was not well advertised
The Dewey theatre was filled to its
capacity. and the ring seats were all
in use The fighters agreed in the
evening to fight on the terms. winner
take all. Sam McClintick was ref
cree. and did his work well, although
owing to rules he was not much need
ed until the counting out was done.
Such contests have done wonders for
the game here. and as long as square
boxers continue to put up such eX-
hibitions as the one this evening
and that of two weeks ago, there will
be no trouble experienced in securing
the privilege here.

SCORES ATTACK ON CAPITAL

NEW YORK, Jan. 1-(Copyrighted
by Newspaper Enterprise association
Jonn D. Rockefeller, in an interview
at Pocantico Hills, said to your cor
respondent:
I'm making their inventories for the
year just ended. many business men
will find they've suffered the loss of
millions through a shrinkage in the
value of their holdings.
This, in face of our great prosper
ity, l can only account for in the low
cred stock values Occasioned by the
attacks upon corporate interests in
tacks that go to tear down structures
which have been erected through great
effort, energy and patience.
1.-The effect of these attacks is first
felt by the capitalists and through
them the debtor classes suffered next.
Who be next to suffer? Why, the man
with the dinner pail; the working man.
When stock values depreciate, capital
lists begin to take in their outstanding
loans. Then the debtor classes feel
the depression and wnen the debtor
classes feel depression. then they re-
trench, and it is then tie wOrkingman's
time to suffer.
You ask me my opinion on the
business prospects next year. l never
prophesying sensible and l

Of it's business men and l have faith
in their judgment. l hope this cOun-
try will realize it's snare in the pros
perity for the coming year."

Walla Walla is now the abiding place
of a sociological curiosity in the shape
of Chinese boy waif Gilbreath is
the name claimed by the little 6-year-
old, wnO has been annoying the police
so much of late.
Seldom do the Chinese fOrsake their
male offspring, but it seems that Gil
breath's father and mother became
separated and that the little fellow
was deserted somewhere in Montana.
He has been drifting about from place
to place, dropping into Walla Walla
a few weeks ago.
He is being cared for in way by
the local Cinnamon, but they do not
have much use for a waif, and little
Gilbreath is left to his own devices
most of the time.
The young Celestial is as smart as a
steel trap, but is up to deviltry of
every variety. He was brought be-
fore the police several days ago for
throwing a rock through store front
on Third street
He was released on account of his
extreme youth upon promise mot to

city was laboring under the wrong

somewhat funny that the true facts
did not come to light at that time.
Papers Disappeared.

morning and found no papers on file
with the city clerk. AS l went down
the street l met Mr.. Glasford and
asked him where the 1875 specifica-
tions were and if they were the orig
inals. He said they were merely
copies and that he had left them at
the city engineers office.
Il hunted up Bridges and we went
together to Mr.. Wilson's Office for the
papers. On the way we saw Glasford
and to be certain we asked him again
He said, I had to dig them up and if
you want to see them you can dig
them up.
"The papers were not in the office
and a telephone conversation with Mr.
Glasford brought out that he had Civ
en- them to someone else for a short
time, but would soon return them.
I'VE went to lunch and after that
called up Mr. Glasford and told him
we could not find the missing papers.
He said, 4 can't help that; also said
he had left them in the back Office,
but did not know whether they were
printed or typewriter.

The rate on one-hOrse vehicles was
arrived at as a compromise between
the report of the special committee
recommending fee of $40 year and
