All winter long the combined forces of the weather and “La Grippe* have been exerted to destroy Health. The Constitution, weakened by resistance, repels with less and less vigor each The enemy holds in reserve the March Winds But the supreme struggle is yet to come. The cry comes up for Reinforcements. Send for Scott’s Emulsion of Cod Liver Oil and Hypophosphites of Lime and Soda.

Postmaster Paul Backs and Fills and Then Protests. CONTINUATION OF THE CIVIL SERVICE INVESTIGA- TION YESTERDAY AFTERNOON—MR. PAUL TELLS HoW HE KNEW THE ELIGIBLES AND THEN DE- NIES IT. Ex-Postmaster Paul of Milwaukee was again on the stand before the civil service investigat- ing committee after recess yesterday. He finished his direct testimony, in which he de- nied generally and in detail all the things Shidy said about him in connection with the violations of the civil service law in the Mil- waukee post office. He said he had never asked Shidy to violate or evade the law in any way. He acknowledged that Shidy had shown him the registration list of eligibles frequently, and that he could have seen it at any time that Shidy was there to show it to him, but denied that he ever examined the list for improper purposes. He tried to show that there had really not been any irregularities of a character to make fraud, but that the apparent irregular- ities were the result of a general recklessness and indifference on the partof Shidy. He said that Shidy was lazy and neglected his work, and that to cover up errors made through his neglect he had sought to implicate him (the witness) in irregularities, in his testimony be- fore the commission. He thought Shiay had made mistakes through laziness and ignorance but had not intended to violate the law. He produced a copy of the Milwaukee Sentinel with a publication by Shidy of the entire eligi- ble list, the disclosure of which was then a vio- | lation of the civil service rules. He saidhe knew Shidy was the author of the publication, for a reporter bad told him so. He thought Shidy | Violated the rules through ignorance. The publication, he said, appeared prior to the visit of the commission. He (witness) had kept a clipping of the publication, but had not used it for purposes of violating the law. On the question of Shidy’s dismissal he said that he had never had an idea of dismissing him for giving testimony before the commission. Shidy’s dismissal had been the result of an at- tack by him on witness in a newspaper. Wi ness said that at the same time Shidy was telli the commission that he was under his (wit- ness’) duress he was telling witness that he was under the duress of the commission, SOMEWHAT TANGLED. On cross-examination the witness was pretty hard pressed by Gov. Thompson and Mr. Webster. Gov. Thompson asked if he re- membered to have told the commission that Shidy wasa faithful and efficient clerk and asked them not tobe hard on him. Witness said he believed he had said something of that sort to them; that it was true. He was then asked how he reconciled this statement with the one made but a short time before that Shidy was lazy and negligent, Witness denied having calied Shidy lazy and the record of the official reporter was referred to, showing that he had made the statement very clearly. He said then that hewould retract that statement. He said further that he could not see the eligible list when he wanted to; that Shidy kept it carefully and well guarded. Maj. Webster took up the cross-examination and asked witness if remembered to have made a statement to him when he was making the investigation at Milwaukee, which state- ment he had read over carefully and then signed, after adding a brief paragraph. Wit- ness said that if he signed the statement he had read it carefully first. Then he said he thought he had signed it. Maj. Webster said he knew he had and thathe had the statement in his hand with Mr. Paul’s signature attached. The statement was one made by Mr. Paul to Maj. Webster and taken down by a stenographer = their transcription read and signed by Mr. aul, HOW HE KNEW THE ELIGIBLES. ‘Maj. Webster asked if he had not said in that statement that he sometimes went to the regis- tec of the eligibles when Mr. Shidy was at din- ner, Witness said he did not remember. Maj. Webster asked if he had not said that he investigated the character and qualifica- tions of candidates before they were certified to him and kept well posted. Witness ac- knowledged that he had stated this; that it Was 80. “How were you able to do this if you did not know that they were on the eligible list and would be certified?” was asked. Witness hesi- tated and fumbled with this question a lo: while and finally said that applications poure: in upon him and he came to know the appli- eants, and in the course of business investi- gated their characters. He said that applica~ tions were made to him and that he sent the Papers to Shidy by a messenger. He was then asked if he did not know it was against the law for the postmaster to receive these applica~ RESTLESS AND CONFUSED. When the cross-examination had gone this far witness began to get restless and protested against being investigated again. He was asked how it was that he had failed to make any selection out of the four eligibles who had been certified up to him in certificate No. 84, though the vacancy then existed, but had « month later selected from another cer- tification the name of a man who was one of = first paciematrl thi itness proteste: ularly against this question and finally Ssaca et no certifica- Gon had been made to him in the first instance; that it was one of Shidy’s blunders and that he did not want to be held responsible for Shidy’s blunders, Mr. Boatner objected after there had been considerable beating about this question to broadening the investigation so that they could never get through with it. He thought the examination of this witness should be confined within the limits ‘of the | & commission's report on hiscase. He was in- formed that this was being done and was at once satistied MR. HATTON PROTESTS, Then Mr. Hatton made quite a lengthy pro- {est against the course things were taking. He saidhe did not care how many good civil service reformers like the witness Mr. Roose- velt convicted of violation of the law—the ONLY TWO ROUNDS. Blacksmith Reidy Easily Whips th: Boy From Delaware. THE PRIZE FIGHT ON THE RIVER'S BANK—SLOW 15 GETTING STARTED, BUT QUICK TO FINISH—0O> ‘THE WAY TO THE FIGHTING GROUND—ANOTHE! FIGHT IN PROSPECT. The much-talked-of fight between Mike Reidy of this city and Jack Collins of Wilmington Del., for the middle-weight championship 0: the District and a stake of $250 aside came oft yesterday afternoon on Bryant's Point, a strip of land just this side of Marshall Hall, and re- sulted in an easy victory for Reidy, who com. pletely knocked his adversary out in two rounds, lasting in all seven minutes and twenty- two seconds, The fight was fought under the Marquis of Queensberry rules with skin-tight gloves, John Standard seconded Collins, while Pete Lally did the honors for Reidy. George North- idge refereed the mill. The fight was to have taken place before noon, but there was a great delay in starting. The fighting ground was tu have been in one of the adjacent counties, but at the last moment the program was changed, and it was decided to fight down the river. OFF FOR THE FIGHTING GROUNDS. It was certainly a motley crowd that gathered at the foot of High street in the morning ready to take the first boat for the battle grounds, The sporting element was well represented and the toughs were there in force. The Little excurson steamer Cecile had been chartered and she lay at the wharf with the steam well up. But the waiting crowd were greatly disappointed, for instead of leav- ing on time it was nearly 1 o’clock when the excursion party bade Washington adieu. Near by was the police boat Joe Blackburn, with Ad- miral Sutton of the Potomac navy on board, re- inforced by Lieut. Hollinberger and a squad of officers. “We don’t want to disturb your ar- rangements gents,” cried Mr. Sutton as the fighting party left the wharf, “but we'll escort you to the District line.” Andsohe did, de- Parting as soon as the party passed Alexandria, amid a general salute of whistles from the Cecile and a tug which followed, laden with spectators of the mill. No one knew the des- tanation, as the fighting grounds had not even been selected. Fort Foote was suggested, also Collingwood beach. ‘How about River View?” suggested astranger. ‘You're crazy,” echoed a dozen voices, no doubt remembering the last prize fight there. So the boat kept on down the river. There was nothing to eat on board and the men were getting uneasy, Finally the crowd took possession of the steamer’s kitchen, and after bribing the cook ate him out of house and home. On the way down several bets of even money were made and more offered. At last the Cecile steamed as close up to the shore as possible and then landed her passengers in small boats. Several small gamblers managed to get in the first boat load, and when the bulk of the crowd landed they fonud various games of chance in full operation, But the “gay gamboliers” didn’t reap much of a harvest, for the patrons of the game were old hands and quite sharp. An unnecessary amount of time was lost in selecting a ring and it was finally decided to pitch the ring in the middle of the road just in the rear of an old barn, ‘THE FIGHT. Everything being ready the pugilists ap- peared and took their respective corners. After considerable difficulty a referee was chosen in George Northridge, and he lost no time in calling the men to time. When Reidy threw off his blanket and stepped lightly into the middle of the ring a murmur of satisfaction went up from the spectators, He was in the pink of condition and his well defined muscles stood out all over his body, the result of care- ful training. He wore white tights and was naked from the waist up. Collins shortly fol- lowed Reidy, but one glance was sufficient to convince the crowd that he was not a match for the burly blacksmith, He was decidedly flabby and much smaller in every way than his an- tagonist, He wore street trousers. Bete of even money on Collins were eagerly taken. FIRST ROUND. Both men set immediately to work. Reidy felt his man with a feintand then led for his wind. The blow fell short and in getting away he received a — on the left jaw from Collins, The big blacksmith was riled, and aiming a wicked left upper cut landed on the Delaware boy's mouth, bringing the claret aud getting first blood. This round closed with some clever short-arm fighting, Collins proving himself a clever sparrer. The second round opened cautiously, but the men soon warmed to their work. Reidy again Jed for Collins’ wind and landed, but in getting ms 4 received a smasher in the mouth. Not the least disconcerted he braced himself and landed several heavy blows. A hit from the shoulder sent the Delaware boy to grass and raised a big lump over his eye. No sooner had he Age than the peerage let go his right in and canght an it full on io air with tremendous core Gare lins went down in a heap. Time was but the regulation seconds allowed for him to rise went by amid breathless excitement and Collins was still under the influence. The fight was accordingly given to Reidy amidst loud cheering. George Northridge challenged Reidy immedi- ately after the result had been announced. The fight will take in six weeks’ time and will be for $250 *e le. The party returned to the city about 7 O'clock, ——»—___ THE CUURTS.

Jelegate Joseph Talks About Statehood to a Star Reporter. Senor Antonio Joseph, now serving his third erm asdelegate in Congress from New Mexico ind one of the most interesting and cultured members of the House, was seen at his hotel by + Sram reporter and induced to talk on the statehood question. “Is it true you are opposing the measure?” he was asked, “I oppose statehood under the constitution of last summer, as the convention which framed that instrument was participated in by only one political party and the territory was gerry- mandered so as to give that party two-thirds of the legislature.” ‘3 “Then you are not opposed to statehood in itself?” “So far am I frem that that I have intro- duced a bill this winter to open the door and let us in.” mill grind?” hard tosay. The admission of new states is a political question. ‘The real trouble is, New Mexico ia democratic and has bgen rep- resented in Congress for eight ye: by a democrat. If the territory were republican it would be admitted quick enough.” they? don’t say so in their speeches do ey?” “Oh, no; the objection raised is one of illit- ot folks enough for a state?” “We cast in round numbers 43,000 votes at the last election, which would indicate over 200,000 population. Fully 100,000 of our peo- le are Americans from the eastern states and, leaving those of Spanish descent entirely out of the question, we have still a larger Anglo- Saxon population than Idaho or Arizona.” “(How about the omnibus bill?” “We are willing to come in any way, from abreast or single file, so that we get inona basis fair to all ‘ties and citizens,” “Is Congress likely to admit Idaho and leave New Mexico out doors?” “It is difficult to predict what will be done, asthe majority under the present rules can do about as it pleases.” “Will the democrats make a test of the last West Vir, case?” “I don’t think oe party will take such ac- tion, though Mr. Pendleton himself muy possi- bly do so, The courts might hold that as the Constitution gives each house power to deter- mine its own membership a minority could, as in this case, unseat a member under rules lopted by a majority. But in the case of an pps bill the courts might decide very ‘erently.” —————+@0__ AN ICE SITUATION. How Yankees Make Fortunes on Their Crops of Crystals, Lots of people make money in slippery ways, but it takes a Yankee to subsidize the weather bureau, organize companies on nothing but air and realize millions on blocks of climate. “How are things on the Penobscot?” was asked of Mr. W. H. Maling, a wealthy lumber- man of Bangor who is in the city,by a Star re- porter. “Hardly so quietas they seem to be along the Potomac,” was his happy and characteris- tic answer. “Not driving logs at this season of the year?” “No, the winter is not so open there as it is here, but our people are opening it ag fast as pe ne with a saw—gathering ice, you know.” “Take off the ice on bo ater then turn the cir over and let the bottom freeze, don't ey “Sometimes they get two crops in one place, but the first is ice cream of the busi- ness.” “Ice is a novelty this winter.” “Yes, most everywhere but in Maine, and that’s where the profit comes in.
