[} g s+ i 8 IN TWENTY-TWO ROUNDS. Bid Clark, of Brooklyn, N. Y,, and Dan Hart, of South Omaba, Meet in the Ring. BATTLING ON THE IOWA SHORE, A Long and Bloody Prize Fight Near the City Early Yesterday Morning~Hart is Finally Knocked Out, An Early Morning Mi The rickety little stern-wheeler, John M. Abbott, Captain Keeler in command, steamed out from the landing at the foot of Davenport street yesterday morning at twenty minutes to eight, bearing a motley crowd of passengers. Most uum- erous among all this varied throng were representatives of the short-haired fra- ternity, liberally interspersed, however, with business and professional men, clerks, real estate agents, gam- blers and fukirs, all bound for some un- determined point up the river to witness an exhibition of the manly* art under the auspices of the Omaha Athletic Club, with Mr. Herb Rothery as master of cer- tle boat not being of ample di- mensions to accommodate the crowd, 8he pushed a covered barge in front of her, and on this & bar was hastily im provised and the aflluvia of beer and old rye impregnated the air for yards around. Here the crowd Vrumnmxdml, sang, danced, talked fight, shot craps and g'lnyell chuckle-u-luck until the Abbott sgan to round to and the captain vointed out the landing place. This wason the Iowa side, about twelve miles up the river, but within the line of Pottawatatmie county and at the base of one of those great hump-backed bluffy that skirt the shore, where they had boen loading barges with sand. It was on the farm of Mr. D. S. Brown, a long, lean, lank fowa tiller of the soil, who was on hand to help drink up the beer and see the fight. The gang plank out, everybody was on shore in u jiffy, save the two pugilists and their handlers. Under the intelligent directions of the master of ceremonies the regulation twenty-four foot ring was paced off, the Btakes driven, ropes put up and the squared circle was ready for the gladia- tors, right in the middle of the road back of the landing, Dan Hart, late of Colorado Springs, now of South Omaha, one of the princ pals, was the first to come ashore, snd, shying his imaginary coster into the ring, he seated himself in the northwest corner, Sid Clark, of Brooklyn, N. Y., his op- onent, was on_hand a moment later, nking his seat in the northeast coruer. Both men were stfipped to the wai wore their coats loosely thrown ov: forms. Hart, who is twenty-seven, and weighs 150 pounds, etood 5 feet 9 inches in his fighting shoes. He is rather a stocky in- dividual, but utterly devoid of ull the points of a_lighter.” His_condition, too, evinced amateurish training, being flabby about the breasts and very soft in the forearms. He 1s, however, not wholly without experience, as he fought Harry Benny an eight-round fight at” Gordon’s coal mines, Texas, a year ago, Benny atopping him by an accidental smash on the point of the jaw. Ho also fought Bob Wright, bare knuckles, at Ft. Wal- nce, Kan., two years ago, sixteen rounds and to a draw. This, barring exhibivions, was about the extent of his fistic history. For yestorday's fight he was trained by Elliott Barnes, Sid Clark, is a recent importation from the City of Churches. Mei1s 26 years of age, weighed 145 pounds and measured a quarter of an inch shorter than Hart. He was trained by that celebrated ebo thumper, McHenry Johnson, the lll:\c[‘(’ Star, and showed in every move and de- tail that he had been looked after by a master hand, He was admirably toned down, carrying not an ounce of superflu- ous beef, The adipose had disappeared from his rather chubby cheeks, and they were hardened like a book agent’s, and his skin glowed with the pin ush of robust health, He looked every inch a winner fu s elass. Clark beat Jim O'Heom on Long Island in May, 1883, after fifteen long and bloody ' rounds, Queensbury rules, and in the winter of 18533, at Cos- mopolitan hall, New York, he knocked Chick Hudson out in the second round, and the same year fougint a draw with Bill Pender. In yesterday's fight Clark was es- wred by the Black Star and Hart b rank Bradburn, a brother of the well known Chicago pug, Bill Bradburn, who lately bested Glover. After the usual Kl‘elimllmry wrangling Tommy Miller, the featherweight, was reed upon as referee, and . T. "Beet, of the Blufls, timer for Hart, and Jack Nugent for Clark. After Herbert Rothery had announced that the fight was to be to a finish, three minute rounds, two ounce gloves, Queensbury rules to govern, the men donned their mits, utemei to the center of the ring, and shook hands. At twenty minutes to ten Miller called time for the first round. After a full minute's cautious sparring, Rart feinted with his left and made an awkward swipe at Clark's stomach with his right; then he forced him round the ring, leading ineffectually three or four times, Clark keeping cool and steady and well out of the way. He was hard pressed though, and ‘when against the ropes In his own corner struck out with right and left, Hart getting back with equal vigor, but before any damage was done they chinched. The Teferee's order to break away was unheeded and force was required to separate the infuriated men, They had barely gotten their hands up again when time was called. Houm‘ second-—Both men cume up as fresh as the new bloom daisi Hart led at once and landed a light one on the ohin, Clark countering low on the neck with the right and crossing with his left. Hart forced the fighting, and in making another clumsy pass with his right, re- ceived a counter smash from Clark’s left in the nose that started the cochineal, First blood claimed and allowed for Clark. > Round Third—Hart was evidently de- termined to bring matters to a focus, but n the rush he got it twice on his dam- aged proboscis and one healthy thump 10 his vietualing department that made him grunt. He wouldn't let up, though, and succeeded in smashing Clark a bard one in the mouth, and getting in once on the short ribs with his awkward auction- L4 eer, Round Fourth—Both quick to seratch, but both with bellows to mend. Hart continued to force his man, and again he got onto Clark's ribs with a resound- ing smack, and again reached the bruised chin, This was the only round in which HA{; had the best of it. Round Sixth—Hart came up on the run with a broad smile on s face, only to collide his swelling smeller with Clark’s crimson mit, Clark now took the offen- sive, and he hit Hart with left and right in quick succassion, weak punches, how- ever, gad finally cornered him near his own chrir, where for a second there was some furious slugging, ending in Clark’s favor. Round Seventh—Clark backed his man all about the ring, smashing him.one 1n the ribs, and receiving asharpone ou the i.' in return. Clark was rapidiy besting fart when time was called. . Round Eight- art was recovering his wind, while Clark a moment seemed wouk, Hart hit him smaxtly on the neck, d two light pnes in the kibs, yLhis tired e Brookiynite and he suddenly went at art viciousy, m ashing him twice on his poor no¥s, and catching him an ugl cross counter.on the left cheek, whic split it open and.started a sccond rivulet of the ruby down over his face and chest. Just'as ti.ne was called Hart got in a hard one on Clark's horn, causing the blood to spurt from both nostrils. Round Ninth—Hart was about spent although dead game. Clark backed him back and forth at will about the ring. ever and anon administering a live tap on nose or ribs, Hart's counters all fell :hon, and his right seemed utterly use- ess. Tenth Round—Hart succeeded in get- ting in two good tacers in this round, but failed to mark Clark only for the mo- ment. They came together finally and some malicious short arm workwas done, Clark gelllnf the best of it. Round Eleventh—Clark sprang into the ring apparently as fresh as in the opening round, while Hart came up slow and dubiously. Clark went right at him as the l&l:\cfi Star called to him, anc drove him rapidly about the ring, {ub- bing him every “second with his tireless left, which he uses not unhke the great Jack Dempsey, but of course with less science and power. _The twelfth, thirteenth, fifteenth, sixteenth, sevel eighteenth rounds were repe last, but in the nineteanth, as Clark was jabbing away at his man, Hart unex- pectedly cut loose with his left and smashed Clark full in the nose, starting the claret in a gushing torrent, Clark eame up for the twentieth round however, with a cleanly bathed face and a8 bright as a dollar, and continued the tactics of the previous ten rounds, drive ing the exhausted and weakening Hart irresistably before him, and keeping up thai torturing work with his mighty left, until Hart began to glance: distractedly about him for a soft place to fall. But, strange to say, up to this time there hae :!o} tnccu a knockdown in the whole ight. Round Twenty-first—Clark still fresh and Hart manifesting signs of grogginess and physical collapse. Clark pursued him unmercifully, raining his blows fast and furious, without, however, doing es- pecial damage, other than to augment the scratching of Hart’s nose, which now began to look like the butt end of a beat. Round Twenty-Sccond and Last “Now put on the kibosh,” yelled the Black St as his game client leaped for- ward to the tardy Hart. And suit- ing his action to McHenry's mandate he rushed him back into his corner, and putting at him with his left, he smashed him a killer with his right in the stomach, that knocked him, not only completely through the ropes, but clean out. Clark was glutton- ishly following his brave but vanquished adversary, who lay limp ard lifeless ap- parently upon the yellow sand by the ring side, but was pulled back by the Str, who remarked, “Go iy down, ho's done.” A liberal application of ice water and spirits frumenti brought Hart around all right in the course of a few minutes, and he picked up by his second’ and trainer and placed in 'Yliichl r. After a {ch moments’ rest he was assisted to the oat, Ten minates later and the John M. Abbott was steaming gaily back toward the metropolis, which was duly reached and the crowd, of which there was not a man who was not fully s: fied that he had had the worth of his money, quickly and quietly dispersed. ‘The men fought for all the receipts over and above expenses, and the prize thus realized was something like one hundred dollars, the winner taking all. Clark, the victor, however, generously started a purse for Hart with a ten dol- dar gold piece, and the hat was passed around and quite a handsome sum was raised for him, ‘The whole affair was the best man- aged and most orderly fislic event ever gotten up in this part of the country. There was not a single case of drunken- ness, no unseemly boisterousness, no disputes, in fact not a ruflianly incident, fourteenth, teenth and tions of the The K. of L.'s *‘Kourth.” By resolution of the Knights of Labor land and building commttee and Fourth of July executive committee, the secre- tary was requested to mako a full report of receipts and disbursements pertaining to the date mentioned, to thank all most heartily who in any way aided us in making what proved to be one of the largest and grandest Fourth of July cele- brations ever held in this city.

The Bank Scheme Deemed a Great Hoax. San Francisco Chronicle : Dispatches from London, via New York, published in iulteru:y‘s Chronicle, state that a bank was to be established in China with $200,000,000 capital, and that the concern was to collect and disburse all moneys of the imperial and provincial government, having charge of rallway and telegraph contracts, the issue of bank notes, and the affairs of the war department. As the San Francisco banks are exten- sively engaged in monetary transactions between the United States ‘and China the effects of the establishment of such an institution would paralyze their business and work a deal of harm to the trade be- tween California and China. In order to obtain some information on the sub- ject a Chronicle reporter saw W. H. Har- ris, local manager of the Hong Kong and Shnnfihnl bank, “What do you think about this bank?” was asked by the reporter. “Why, I think the whole thing is a hoax,”” said Mr, Harris; “fancy the amount of eapital—§200,000,000, £40,000,- 000—why the Bank of England’s capital is only £7,000,000. My idea is that the schemeis a wildeat, gotten up by this Polish Count Mitkieurtz.” lmluiry at the Anglo-Cabfornia and the Bank ot Cahfornia resulted in similar expressions of opinions. One ot the bauk officials said that the scheme ap- peared to him to be an cffort to rig the silver marke A gentleman who has been in the Chinese government service and is fa- miliar with Chinese affairs, was also in- terviewed. ‘“T'he story 18 u very improbable one,” sald he, “‘because a large portion of the revenues of Kwangtung, Fohkien, Kiangsi, Kiangsu, Chekiang, Hupeh, Shautung an Chihli are hypoth- ecated by mperial and viceregal edicts to the Hongkong and Shanghai bank. The money received is used to pay interest and principal to the foreign bondholders, who have advanced sums through the banks to the provincial gi;)vurnmems. Therefore it 18 hardly feas- ible that this new bank would receive the moneys ag reported. Payment of thesc funds to the bank 18 secured by the cus- toms revenues of the treaty ports. With regard to the management of railroad and telegraph lines the statement is ab- surd, The Chinese government officials have lines of wire from Shanghai to the north and south well established and in good working order. With regard to the difficulty of telegraphing, as stated in a morning paper that published an inter- view with Captain Brady of Philadelphia, that is all nonsense. Since 1873 there has been a cable between Hongkong and Shanghai. Other lines are m working order, and there has never been any dif- ficulty experienced by the Chinese in sending messages, It requires about 7,000 characters to conduct the ordinary, everyday transac- tions in Chinese mercantile affairs, A book contuining these characters, num- bered from 1 to 7,000, has been printed by the telegraph authorities, und if a man wants to send a message he simply wires numbers representing the charac- ters and the receiver marks down the number at hisend of theline. Reference is made to the book and the characters are ascertained. This system has been working for the past thirteen years and has given satisfaction to the Chinese. This “Brady must have made the state- ment about the difliculties of telegraphy in sheer ignorance, The Chronicie some days ago published an interview with Baron Sedoin, who came from China, and he stated that there was no money to pay for railrords in China, and his statement is no doubt correct. The Viceroy Li has no authority to grant any concessions without imperial edict. and you may be sure that such a wonder- ful lot of privileges granted to any for- eigners wonld excite the attention of all the ministers representing Kuropean nations at Peking. " They would protest against it. This story about a mint and the war office finances is all bosh. Kvery province has a mint where copper oash 18 coined and no other coin of any description, but a Mexican dollar passes as current in the Chinese em- pire, if small coin, such as quarters or &dimes are excepted. There is a board of war at Peking, but they have no more financial dealings with the troops than I ha Each body of men 1s paid from the treasury of the province where they are stationed. Of the funds remitted to Peking as tribute from each province this board of war distributes a small sum of payment to the Manchu guard that garrisons Peking. The only portion of the story likely to be true is about the telephone concern and the idea is that this count has induced Philadelphia capitalists to put up money for the introduction of the system into China. Telephones have been in opera- tion in Shanghai since 1880, and the Viceroy Li is well acquainted with their workings. The scheme seems to be a very crude one to enlist capital and pos- slbly_ to cause a raise in the silver mar- ot POWDER Absolutely Pure. This powder never varies.
