But the biggest crowd 1 about The Star office, as it 5 ed that the promptest arrangements made by The Star fo: iving and announcing the news proved ‘actory. not long after noon when men be- gan to gather about The Star office, anx icus to secure desirable pegitions near the bulletin boards. There they stood patiently until th news came that the men had en- tered the ring and were ready for the word. a few minutes after 3 o'clock, F ¢ meantime the crowd had grown to enormous proportions. It was the largest crowd that ever gathered for a similar pur- this city, and when the news of the ing began to come in there must have been at least 5,000 people around the corner of lth street and Pennsylvania avenue. That is a conservative estimate, and it is probabie that the exact number was sev eral thousand in excess of that. Between The Star office and Brentano's the crowd wes packed in like sardines, stretching up llth street half way to E street, and out into the avenue beyond the cable tracks. The crowd was informed of details of the fight within a very few seconds of the time each blow was struck nearly 3,000 miles away. Upon the steps on the th street side of The Evening Star but smail platform had been built, placed a big double black- ung on pivots, so that $ reading the bulletin s being writ- his way it was pos- the substance of every bu came from the ringside, and it a and graphic picture of the fight om the moment time was cail- final blow was struck.

It was the old story over again, King is dead, long live the king.” While the fight was in progress and the crowds were eagerly pressing around The Star office for news, Mr. Prince, the pho- tographer, turned a camera upon’ the scene. The result was a photograph from waich the accompanying picture in The Star today vas drawn. The Evening Star's news service from the scene of the fight met every expecta- tion. Not only did the people who biocked the streets about The Star buildings get full details of the fight as rapidly as elec- | tricity could communicate them, but the community generally was quickly inform- ed through Star extras promptly issued.

A Determined Effort to Effect Its Re- organization, There will be a most determined effort made in the Fifty-fifth Congress to in- crease the efficiency of the navy by adapt- ing the organization of the personnel to isting conditions. The first naval bill of the session was introduced by Represen- tative Wilson of New York, a member of the naval committee of the last House. The measure submitted by Mr. Wilson was formulated by him with the ass naval experts. It recognize: a navy to be efficient in time of war must not only have an engineering reserve to draw upon, but that an intelligent and patriotic crew must be provided for, Pro- on has, therefore, been made whereby sted men cannot only sectre commis- sions in the naval service, but it will be chligatory upon the part of ihe naval ofti- ciais to give practical encouragement and assistance to dé ing men in th to fit themselves for higher duties. A remedy is provided whereby a progres increase is gineer corp rank and duties and gineer are of the ser of the navy.

The influences without the service | favoring the measure are of so strong a nature that the bill will undoubtedly be considered at an early day in the Senate if not in the House. Se DISTRICT IN CONGRESS. A Few of the Bills That Failed Again Introduced in the Senate. It is not the intention of the Senate D trict committee to take up proposed lezis- lation during the special session. To do so would involve hearings, and a lot of work 01. measures which would simply be pl up without opportunity to be disposed of. A few of the old District bills that fail at the close of the last Congress were in- troduced in the Senate today. Mr. Faulk- ner introduced the biil for the acknowle tg- ment of instruments in the transfer of ~eal estate in the District of Columbia; and the 1 municipal building bill which he intredue in the last Congress. Mr. Gallinger it.tro- duced a new bill to probibit the sale er giv ing away of intoxicating liquors in gov- rnment buildings. He al roduccd the bill to regulate cemeteries which failed to get the signature of the President in the rush of the closing hours of the last Con- gress, and also the Peter van Essen bill, and the Dill to prevemt the adultera:ion of foods and drugs in the District of Columbia. Mr. Allen intreduced a bill to provile for the opening of the mansion house at Ar- lington to the public. ose} Ds ee Divorce Granted. Judge Cux teday granted Mary V. Bruce a divorce from Joseph J.
