Harper had a triflo the bestof it in weight and cousia erablo iu reach, Neither scemed in porfect condition. Harper, in the first, poked Evans in the neck and jav, Iivans countering and securing tha first knock down. Tho second was @ scorcher, Evans scoring three knock downs. Harper would have gouo out had he not fallon against the scenery. It looked like a walk away for the little Califorinian, but he feinted in the third for an opening, duflng which time Harper caught nis wind, Then the latter rushed his man, gottng in some territic punches. He would havo stopped Kvans then, but the wily chap clinched and would not break away until time was called. The fourth found both weak. A hasd punch would have seut ecither to grass. Harper got a knoek-down and had Kvans ap- purently done for, but Wiloy recoverca and sent the tall fellow to the fioor with a savage upper cut. In tho fifth Evans came up groggy aud Harper, too, was shaky. After selnting Harper led apd landed on Evans' head and neck. Kvans clincked, but Bob vroke away and sont IEvans down and out with a right-hand punch. Just as tho time was up, lvans staggered to s feet, but it was too late, and the contest, which was for £230 a side, wont to the Chicago man. The fighter used six-outice mits and the contest was one of the oddest ever seon on the west side, Patsey Carroll was master of cere- monies. A large crowd was present.

WiLkesBARRE, Pa., Jun. 28.—A terrific ex- plosion of dynamite occurred at Honey Brook, a small mining town near Hazelton, at noan today. tifteen Hungarian winers were employed 1n u coal stripping operated by Dick & Mantz at that place. They were sitting around the stove in the workmen’s shanty eating their. lunch. when several sticks of dynamite, which bad been placed near the stove, exploded, blowing the shauty to fragmeuts and scattering the Inmates in all directions. The wnoise of the explosion was beard five miles away. ln a short time hun- dreds of people had gathered at the spot and willing hands were soon among the wounded. Two men, Adam Bornick and John Sla- vitski, were instantly killed, their boaies being ' shockingly toutilated. Of the athor thirteen not one escaped injury. Men were Iying arouad in evory direction, some with arwns and legs broken and blood vouring fromn many gaping wounds, Several doctors were soon on the spot sttending toinjuries of the sufferers. It 1s now believed that a num- ber of the victims will die. At 8 o'clock this evening a reuort comes from the hospital that there sre seven men there. They arestll alive, but their coundi- tion is considered critical. A special to the Wilkesbarre Record at 10 o'clock says: There were twenty Slavs injured, of whom eight 1 the hospital will die. 'Lwo are known to be dead, and others are being treated by the doctors at their huts naar where the accident occurred. At nightfull tuere were two men yet missing and the doc- tors and bosses are scouring the woods for them. Tho dynamite that exploded is known as dualin, one of the highest zrades made. Dr, Keller tonight said that besides the fractures of the skull ana bones of the face, the body of each patient contains scores of wounds made as if by buliets, their legs, arms and chests being pierced with dualin from two to ¢ inches deep. The probing of their wounds did not reveal in a singie lustance any foreign body at the bottom of the wouud. el HE HATES THE GERMANS, Cardinal Ledochowskl's Favor Will Not Be Won by Falr, Words. Loxpon, Jan. 28, —Cardinal Ledochowski, who has been appointed prefect of the propaganda, was for a time -friendly toward the German government. "He was an inti- mate friend of the late Kwmpress Augusta of Germany. Subsequent events occurred which led him to change bis attitude toward the government and he became one of its most bitter adversaries, He incurred tne nostility of Prince Bismarck, and the result was that he was sentenced Lo several years' imprisonment. He was after a time allowed to escape and has since resided in Rome, The German government, it is sald, is now trying to court him, 1n order to get kim to acoept the policy of the emperor and Lo have him as an ally near the pope. But thus far his sentiment against Germany is unappeass- ble and the negotistions with him have no present chance of success, ad he been ap- pointed prefect of the propaganda dur- log Bismarck's time it would have been an act of defiance toward Germany. — - Sued an Omaha Cltizen, Cuicago, 1L, Jan, 28, —[Special Telegram to Tug Bek. | ~Ex-Cougressman Johu A.

[CONTINURD FIOM PIRST PAGE, | work and war material in connection with naval matters have been rovoked, It 1s probabie that within a few days, if the now pacific condition of affairs should show sikcs of permanent continuwice, some of the spo cial expenses incurred for warlike propara- rations may be discontinued—such, for in- stance,as those incident to extra hours’ work on ships, projactiles and armor. The total cost of our recent naval demonstrations has not been figured up yet, but, as intimatoa in thess dispatches a few days ago, it will doubtiess mount up to millions —parhaps to somewhere about 3,000,000 to date. AFTER THE CLOUDS HAVE VANISHED, teisms an —Where Our Wasnisaros, D, C .—Represonta- tive Breckinridge of Kentucky, who on Tuesday created considerable discussion in the house by the introduction of a resolution calling upon the president to transmit to the house without delay all additional aispatchos recoived in regard to the Chilian contro- versy, since or before the transmission of his message to congress, was this ovening asked his opinion of the message and dispatches to- day submitted. “From the correspondence submitted today,” said he, “my judgment is that the relations betwoeen the United States and Chili ought to bocome at once friendly and that it 1s a mero matter of detall as to the modae and time of settlement and the amount of indemnity. It is evident that the Chilian government always meant ponce and not war, As tothe particular mode of sot- tlement, whether by arbitration or mediation or diplomatic negotiations, | am uo prepared to say, and do not think it specially import- ant which mode is pursued: but I do think it wise that under all circumstances our gov- ernment should at once recall Mr. Egan and send some minister there with whom the Chilian government may negotiate without any sense of either humiliation or irritation. Tho information printed in the newspapers of Monday morning, the 25th, and on Tues- day morning, the 26th, and the dates of the correspondence submitted by the special message today, seem to requiro from tho ad- ministration & fuller explanation of what dispatches bave been received and of thooxact dato when they were roceived, For it seems to meevident that it was known on Sunday night that a specific and satisfactory answer would be made, and Mr. Hurrison owes it to the country and to congress and himself to tet 1y be known whetner he had this infor- mation the couniry, had or was ignorant of it.” Pleased With the Outcome, There was a decided feeling of relief mani- fested at the eapitol today. It was realiy not necessary that senators and representatives should say, as all who were seen did, that the nows that the controversy over the Chi- lian trouble had terminated peacefully and wich credit to the United States was a source of gratification to them. The fact’ was evident to the eye in the manner of the men and the ease with which the business in each branch of congress dropped naturally into its usual routine. The conversation among members of the house of representatives when it turned to the subject which for the past few weeks had been uppermost in thejr thoughts ro- lated not, as formerly, to the prospect of strife, but to the way in which the people would view the message of the president on Monday, coming 8o shortly before the an- nouncemont of the concession bv Chili of all that the United States could ask. The dem- ocrats were nearly of one mind as to this question, but the stories they toid having more or less relevancy to the situstion were more 1nteresting than the utterances de- signea for the publie. Commended the President. ‘The republicans, who expressed opinions to be quoted generally, thought that the ac- tion of the president had brought about the satisfactory response- receiyed - and - com- mended his course. What was said with the knowledge that it might be published was generally in the same swain and expressive of the gratification felt:as the outcome. * T'ne Assoctated Press cablegram from' Stintiago and the subsequent._confirmation of it by the Associated Press dispatch from Washington publisned yesterday morning had prepared public men in a great measure for the an- nouncement contained in the president's message today, but novertheless it was ap- parent to the speotators in the galleries that the president’s expressions of satisfaction with the present condition of the matter, and his statement that there is now no noed of a gran® of special powers from congress, were welcome intelligence to the senate and the house. The message was first received in the sen- ate. After the presidential message and the cablegrum from Mr. Egan had been read s—EveryonePlensed avy Was, -Senator Shermaun expressed the sentiment of the senate when he said that all would join heartily in congratulations upon the honora- ble settlement of the controversy. Senatorial Comment. Senators who were seen after the reading of the papers had no special comment to make other than that they regarded the controversy as practically set- tled, and that” they tbought the an- swer of Chili had remouved the irritation be- tween the two govornments. Thoy said that the answer was very straightforward and candid, and that_there was nothing more than the United States could demand. It was rogarded as a complete and unequivocal re- spouse. The belief in the senate heretofore has not been that .the probabilities of war Wwore very great. Several democratic senatore criticised the action of the president in sending his mes- sage to congress before Chili's reply had been recéived. ‘The statemeut in tho president’s message that no special powers from congress are needed is, of course, interpreted to meun that nothing remains to be dons for the present by congress, and is also taken to indicate probability of arbitration, and that Chili’s offer to settle the matter in our own suprere court will not be availed of. In this eveat 0o action 1s needoed by congress with refer- ence to determining the details or the method of settlement of the matter of reparation or indemnity, the work of bringing the contro- versy through to s final adjustment being one with which the diplomatic service is fully competent under the law and the con- stitution Lo deul. Senator Sherman, chairman of the foreign relations committee, said today that no further action on the subject would be taken by the committee for the present at least, if at :.l“od He considered the trouble as virtually settled. Disposition of Our Naval Force, Public men bhave beea m’lelole inter- visewed on the controversy during the last week, and there have been so wany rapid changes in the situation, making those inter- views frequontly out of date and inappro- priate a few hours later, that there was a natural disinclination today to discuss the affair at length or to do more than express gratification at the result, 1t was openly adinitiea at the Navy de- partment today that there 1s no longer any reason for concealmeut that this government was fully propared to enforce its. .demand: against Ci n casé they had not - been cured by the more 1fic method of negotia- tion through alfiomnuo channels, The entire available has been concentrated so to be able to make an slmost concerted attack on Chilian ports. The Pacific squadron, consisting of the Saun Francisco, Charleston, Baltimore, Boston aud Yorktown, would have been spredily reinforcea by the South Atlantic squadron, now at Montevideo, counsisting of lnnuhlu‘ Atlanta, Bennington and Kssex and the Philadelphia and Concord of the North Atlsntic squadron. 0 two last are now on their way to @0, The Co:cord arrived at Bahia today and the Philadelphia is probably ve- l‘ou that port on her way to Montevideo.

For the past twenty-four hours nothing else has been discussed in the streets, in tho cafos, in fact in all public piaces. The papers which fav- ored Balmaceaa aud the supporters of the late dictator generally are crowing over the mannér in which this matter has been handled by the presont government, and are doing all they can to inflame the people. In Valparaise the matter is veing discussod with more calmness. The merchants and baukers thero generally believe that a peace- ful settlement of the pending difficultios be- tweon the United States and Chill will surely be reached. Intense Exclitement Everywhere, Teiegrams are arriving hourly from Iqui- que and all the provinces north and south to the pupers In Santiago and Valparaiso, ask- ing if the question has been settled. Intense exciterent prevails throughout the entire country. In fquique, especially, the people apoear to bo wrought up to a high pitch. The Peruvian residents of Iquique are jubilant over the existing state of affairs, The press of Santiago and Valparaiso print the wildest stories relative to the ultimatum, La Union is especially bitter, and calls upon the pecple, both mule aud female, to stand her togetin upholding the honor of the country. Inregard to the story current that the United States would require a salute to the stars and stripes, it says: “Our noble sailors would prefer sinking to the bottom of the sea rather than to salute tho Yankeo flag.” i The exact terms of Chili’s reply are not generally known, orthe pupers are purposely keeping them back. This is rogarded as strange. A majority of the inselligent people of the country regard the aot of tue govern ment in regard to the apology and the with- drawal of the.demand for Minister Egar recall in a favorable light. La Union prints aletter from an Englisbmau advising the soverance of alj Jiplomatic and consular re- lutions with the;tinited States.

(Copyrighted 1892 by James Gordon Bennett. | PANAMA (via Galveston, Tex.), Jan, 27, | By Mexican Cable to the New York Herald —Special to Tng Bee.)—The feeling here is favorable to Chill in the controversy between that country and the United States. The isthmian survivors of the Prestan rebellion openly denounce the Americans, and advo- cate the co-operation of the South American republics in Chili's gefense, in case of hos. tilities. Many Colombians of all clasaes are anxious to leave immediately as vol teers in the Cbilinu service. The Spanish press believe that Uncle Sam’s present move is a death blow toMr. Bisine's dream of pan-American union. In official circies the feeling is that Colombia in isthmian trunsiv holds the koy to the situation. It is understoud that in case of trouble the vessels of the South American Steamship company, the Lijs, Cachapesl, Imperial, Mapocho, Maipo, Aconcagus and Latama, wilrbu piaced at the service of the Chilian government.

LCopyrighted 1892 by James Gordon Bennett.] Pay Jan, 27.—|New York Herald Cable ~Special to Tnr Bex.|—The sensation of the moment is & bourse scandal. MM. Charles, Abel, Laurent and Doyen, brokers of the Paris Stock exchange, are. implicated. The position ocoupied by M. Laurent had led to his being intrusted by the directors of the Caisse des Depots et Consignations with the investments in Fronch rentes of the Paris savings banks. The exceptional sd- vantages enjoved by M. Laurentenabled him to foresee the finctuations of rentes on the boarse. The transactions of the savings banks amounted to several million francs yearly, and to a large extent determined the quotations in government seourities. At the trial of a case now before the Bordeaux courts it wus disclosea tbat M. Laurent, taking a dishonest advantage of his position, bad beon In the habit of posting his cus- tomers as to his dealings with the savings banks, .ed One Man to Ruin, Comte de Menou, a Bordeavx banker, has just failed with several million habilities. He is a young man, barely 30 years of age, and connected with a noble family. Although boe had no fortune of his own, the comto do Menou did business on behalf of all the aristocracy in and near Bordeaux. His speculations for his own account and his customers were enovmous and largely con- ficed to the Paris bourse. M. Laurent was his chief agent in the capital. M. Laurent ns to have declined toexecute the various orders of M. de Menou, which would have resulted in bandsomo profits, and to have counsclod a series of investmonts which were certain to rosult in_heayy 10ssos. The comto de Menou's lawyer, M. Wal- deck Roussean, an ex-ministerof the interior, was put into possession of the correspondenco which passed between his client and M. La t, on whom helays the blame for the count’s failure. These disclosures have made a great stir on the Paris bourse. An inquiry has been opened, and it seems certain that M. Lauvent will not only lose the business of the Caisse des Depots et Consignations, but also be compelled to quit_the corporation of the Agents de Chance. He will not be a subject for much pity to bo sure even then, for_his stockbroking transactions with M. de Menou alone are belinved to have brought him in about 1,300,000 francs, on which he can afford to rotire.

NG, Suffering Russlans uture—The ai See o Hope In the Pitiful Condltions, St. Pererssure, Jan., 27.—Advices re- ceived here from the government of Voronezh show that matters in that part of the famine-stricken = district are going from bad to, worse. The peasants bave become exasperated by their sufferivg and from hunger and sickness and in a biind unreasoning way they have turned. their re- sontment against the doctors for the latter’s failure to effect cures. This same course was followed during the cholera epidémic which ravished that part of the empire, and the doctors having beforo them tho memory of the fate of. the medical men in the cholera years have fled from the ignorant peasaptry. n many viilages in Voronezh the mihtary have been called upon to suppress tho dis- orders, The difficuity of learning the true condi- tion of affairs in the famine dis. tricts is illustrated by o story told of an occurrence which took place at a recent meeting of the famine relief committes in St. Petersbur, The czarowiteh, who is president of the committee, was conversing with a gentlemun who had just returued from a tour of inspec tion in the famine districts. The gentleman gave instances of the heartrending scenes ho had witnessad. ‘The czarowitch listened to the piuful de- tails with an incredulous air, all the time twirliug his oustache. Presently he said: *I beliove you are exaggerating.” The gentleman therouvon deemed it prudent to retire, This incident has bad a deterrent effect ou those best acquainted . with the actual condi- tions prevailing in the aficted districts, and they display & very natural hesitancy in imparting their knowledgo to others. It may be said, however, that the stories of distress and misery hitherto published fall far short of the facts.
