ARENA, DAILY CITY. Cal, March
9.-Abe Attell, erstwhile featherweight
. champion lost the decision to light
weight Harlem Tommy Murphy in
a twenty round fight his afternoon
at the DAILY city open arena.
/ It was bloody fight throughout
and Attell presented a sorry figure
as he tottered to his dressing room af-
ter the contest
Murphy had a clear lead in the ma .
iorty of the rounds but his best blow
being a right cross with which he time
and again sent Attells head back. Ref
cree Welch's decision was cheered by
the spectators Murphy outweighed
Attell by at least eleven pounds.
In the first round Attell landed FREE
qucntly on the body and forced Muir
phy to seek protection against the rop-
es. but did not damage. Attell bled
from the mouth as the round ended
with the honors a shade in his favor.
Murphy was reprlmanded several
times in the second round for hold
ing.
Attcll gave his first exhibition OF
his much vaunted cleverness in the
ninth and had Murphy hammering the
air.
They fought like tigers at close
quarters in the twentieth round each
trying for a decisive advantage.
Murphy sent A,tell's head back
thrice until he stalled and cllnched.
The fight ended with Attell covered !
with blood and holding desperately to /
his antagonist. When Referee WaIch !
declared Murphy the winner the de-
cision WAS cheered.

The New General Manager.

Mr.. J. w. Higgins has been ap-
pointed General Manager of the
Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain
Railroad to succeed A, w. Sui
livan, resigned. The announce.
ment is made ina circular issued
by First Vice President E, j.
Pearson and approved by Presi-
dent B. F. Bush, the appointment
being effective January 1st, 1912.
John Wilfred Higgins, has for
some stime been regarded as one
of the brightest transportation
men in America. Familiar with
every phase of the operation of a
railroad system, he is most tho
roughly equipped for his new po-
sition.
Mr.. Higgins, who was born at
Newport, r. l., on October IL,
1864, entered service of the Illinois
Central Railroad as a messenger
boy at the age of Is. He continued
in the service of that Company
until the latter part of 1908, when
he left the position of General
Superintendent of Transportation,
after having served in almost ev.
cry capacity in the operating line,
including telegraph operator, con
ductor, chief clerk to General Su-
perintendendent, Trainmaster,
Division Superintendent, Super
intendent of Terminals, etc. He
left the Illinois Central to accept
position as Assistant Superin-
tendent of the Grand Trunk, and
resigned in December, 1904, to GO
to the Missouri Pacific Iron Noun
tain as Inspector Of Transports
ton. After three months service
in that capacity he, on March /,
1905, was promoted to Assistant
General Manager, which position
he has held since, and in which hi
has made most enviable record.
The breadth, depth and quality
OF Mr.. Higgins, growing out O
his wide experiences, his absorbing
personality, association with su'
perior and subordinate officers
and employees conspicuously quail.
ify him to direct the administra
tion Of the operating affairs of tn,
1900 miles which comprise the
Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain
Lines. He is a man full of inheren
energy with a keen perception o
the duties of public carrier, and
while exacting honest service
from employees, his generous ant
discriminating consideration fol
them eminently fits him for th
position.

A STINGER IN THIS ONE.
The Reciprocity act passed last
summer provided for the removal,
in part, of the duty on paper i'm :
ported from Canada. This pro-
vision did not require Canada's
endorsement. Since then more
than 80 independent paper COM
panies have started business in
opposition to the paper trust.
Notwithstanding the Reciproci-
ty act, with the single exception
of the paper provision, became
dead and defunct when Canada
declined TO accept it, Senator Hey
burn has introduced bill for the
repeal of the whole act. Were
this bill to pass unamended it not
only would uselessly repeal an
imperative act, but would put the
duty back on paper. There is
stinger in the Hepburn repeater
that will bear watching.
AN ACCOMPLISHED REFORM.
Fourteen million dollars in
postal savings banks in the United
States, after but one year of oper-
alton! This is one Of the novelties
of the financial reports of the New
Year. This record marks the
practical success of an experiment
about which there was never the
slightest doubt. There are now
5,1S5 post-ofices with postal
banks. When the system is fully
developed and popularized an
nual deposits of S2O0,000,000 are
anticipated. Now for a limited
parcels post!
