MAY BE FATAL BLOW.

Peoria, III, May 13,-Jack Morgan of Indianapolis knocked out the orig inal Kid" Farmer in the tenth round of a fierce fight here last night. The first six rounds were slow, but the last four were furious though Morgan clearly outclassed his man. Farmer did not recover promptly and after half an hours work by three physicians he was re- mcSed to hospital where he lies in a semi-conscious. condition. Ex- animation showed the man to be suffering from concussion of the brain with slight chances for re- covery. Morgan and his seconds, Charles Barthon, the promoter, and Referee Ryan were arrested pending the outcome of the injuries.

BURKE AND BRADLEY.

Sailor Burke and Fred Bradley have been matched to meet before the members of the Grand Athletic Union at the old Ice Palace. Lexington avei,- ue and East forth street, next Moll- day night. Each has met some of the best men in his class, although they have never met each other. s
 The battle should give the enthus- lasts line on Willie Lewis chances with Burke. That bout, which never came on, was the subject of much controversy. Bradley has met Lewis and the pair put up q slashing battle, and if the Sailor succeeds in hanging one of his famous wallops on Brad ley's jaw before the six rounds are over the Burke rooters will allow there Is nothing to 1t but Burke against Lewis.

LoUGHREY FEARED ARREST.

There was keen disappointment at the Maple A. c. last night when it was ar~sunced that Young Loughery would not appear to box Frankie Madden in the star six-round bout. It appears there is warrant out for Loughery's arrest in connection with the boxing bout that was re- gently halted by the police at the Grand Athletic Union, and had the Philadelphian put in his appearance here last night he would have been arrested. He "got wise" and tele- graphed Sam Lewis, of the Maple A. C.. that he would not appear to box Madden.

Oakland, Cal, May 13.-Ai Kauf- man, the California heavyweight was last night awarded the decision at the end of the sixth round, over Joe Grim of Philadelphia. known as the Iron Man of the prize ring.

The breaking OF sunshiny day aft

gladstone TO the Republican braves
that section elected delegates to the
state convention next Tuesday-as the
letters from Milton Oakman which are
finding their way to the faithful.
Your transportation will be hand

and this means that delegates Will

their own fare, but Will ride on the
generosity OF their candidate. The
candidate in this case Is taken TO be
E. d. Stair, and the welcome letters
will tend TO greatly increase the

There is just one cloud In the sky.
1t is rumored that only one-way fare
will be paid, the other half ticket be-
ing advanced after the delegates have
voted right in convention and got safe

having TO walk home.

NEW YORK, May S.-The Sun says
today: The sentiment OF business is
more hopeful, although the number Of
failures and the amount involved Is

President Roosevelt Is not TO succeed
himself conditions will probably Inn
prove.
Except for the actual and intrinsic
damage and destruction which he has
wrought there is really nothing to re-
tard recovery except the widespread
and demoralizing apprehension that he
may seize upon another term. II Taft
or any OF his fellow candidates re-
ceives the nomination at the Chicago
convention public sentiment will un-
dergo a most beneficial change.

death over the business initiative and
