The fight was witn five ounce gloves for 8100 a sido and the gate re- ceipts, and all things considered was one of the best ever seen in this cit, The men fought fair avd hard, the largo crowd of spectators was orderly and good natured and tho referco por- formed his aaties in an exceptionally satisfactory manner. Theaavantage scomed first 1o be with one and then the other and the enthusiasm of the cougrogated sports was kept at fover heat all through the con- test. Tho beaten man made as game & fight as was oven seen in a ring and won the ad- miration even of those who most favered the Omaha pugilist. Fought from the First, The men entered the ring shortly after half past ), accompanied by thoir seconds. Sher- yoy weighed 140 pounds and his opponent ‘was #ix pounds heavier. The former had a slizht advantage in heighth and reach, but Mills was quicker on his fect and his com- pactly built frame seemoa capable of great endurance., Phil Mcfarland was the referec and at 10 o'clock the boll tapped and tho men faced each other. Mulls took the initiative und led with both hands, but fell short. Sherroy tried and landed lightly on Mills’ face aud breast. In a sharp exchange Shorroy’s left reached the Kansas City man's jaw aud he received a straight counterin return. The second round ‘was uneveniful and third closed with both men fighting Lard and honors even, In the four round Sherroy teached Mill's neck with a rattlimg right. Just as the bell rung Mills_planted his right glove on Sher- roy's mouth drawing first blood. The next three rounds were onlivened by a numbor of hard exchanges. Sherroy nhad a shade the best of it but appeared winded and his shances did not appear flatteving. T'ho first real advantage was in the eighth round when Sherroy landed the good ones in succession in Mills' face. In the next he continued to punish Mills, and the latter was groggy when time was called. Sherroy won first knock down in this round with a sting- ing right in the jaw, Sherroy knocked his opponent down five times in the tenth round, ana Kansas Citv blood flowed freely. The mext round was the Omaba man’s chance to win, but he dal- lied. and when the twelfth round was called Mills seemed as fresh as ever. Game, But Couldn't Win. The rest of the fight was ntensely excit- {ng. Sherroy hit Mills hard and often, but ivhils was game and, only smiled as ho re- coived stinging blows'on his face and body. He was knocked down again in the twelfth round, but rallied and sent his stock up in the next by landing two straight lefts at tho Omaha mao's mouth. The next round was fn She roy's favor, and in the fifteenth Mills was knocked down five times. He could hardly keep his feot and his face resembled a raw beef steak, buv he still smiled and hit as hard as at the beginning of the contest. The sixtcenth round was the same, but the terrible punishment was telling on the man from tho Kaw, and when the round closed ho was lying senseless under the ropes under o torrific richt on the jaw. The fight was given to Sherroy, who wins the entire purse aLd gato receip Stantord Wouldn't Soll Advertiser, New YoRk, March 25, - Evidontiy Senator Stanford considers the 4-year-old Advertiser the true successor to his sire, Electioneer, A few days ago he refused $110,000 for the Euunl stallion, and today a well known reeder who has just returned from a visit to tho Palo Alto stables said tho party thav made 1ho original offer had bid an additional $15,000, wkich was declined.

WHERE SALISBURY IS VERY WRONG e Thinks the United States is Bluffing in This Matter—Serious Crisis Is at Hand—The Corres n ¥ ondence Wasmixerox, D. C., March 24.—[Special Telegram to Tne Bee. |-—I'hat the Bering sea crisis 1s near at hand no one now doubts Coincident with the news from London that the British warships are moving to tho North Py ¢ to care for the Cabadian poachers, the iatest ehapter of the diplomatic corre- spondenco is made public. That shows that President Harrison’s ad ministration has taken oven a firmer stand than last mght's reports indicated. And this stand has not boen taken without sufticient preparations for maintaining it. As the president states, the self respect and the Mignity of this country will be main- tained, Should a naval collision result from a quarrel over a single scason's catch of seal, the responsivility will be reat Britain, Conservative members of the administration and senators think that this deplorable re- sult will not be reached, because Lord Suls- bury will yet see his mistake ana agree to a renowal of the modus vivendi. 1f ho fails to do so, a collision seems novitable. Conservative, but Earnest. Congress to a man will back up the presi- dent in his declared intention to exhaust every available resource to maiatain the rights claimed by the covutry pending arbi- tration. In both administration and sena- torial circles the talk 1s of the most conserva- tive kind, There is a determined effort to prevent irritation growing out of anythivg that may be said, At the same tume the feoling 1s one of greater ancertainty than anyone cares to confoss. The publication of the cables from London which seem to reflect British sentiment are looked upon here as open incitements to trouble. Bragring about the war ships may fire the British heart 1n the tories’ fayor and not much might come of it. But if, as re- ported, Lord Salisbury’s course is dictated by what ho believes to be American senti- ment, and if he is acting on the advice of Six Charles Tupper, the probability is that he will persist in his policy. 1t Rests with Great Britain, Itis almost inconceivable to public men here that the English premier could be made 1o believe that the American people look upon the contention of the Unitod States as in the interost of a fur seal monopoly, and not for the vurpose of upholding historical national rights. Yet if he has received the impression, tbhey see how itis possible for him to go ahead on his present lines. . The position of the United States is so clearly defined in the president’s last note, which Acting Secretary Wharion delivered to Sir Julian Paunceforte Tuesday, that there is little call for further diplomatic cor- rospongence. When he says that the loast the United States can do is to insist on the renewal of the modus vivendi he rests the case, and the future developments must rest with Great Britain. EVERYTHING QUI GERMANY. Caprivi Will Remain Chanceilor of t pire—Other Political Changes. (Copyrighted 1892 by James Gordon B A Pans, March 24.—[New Yorik Herald Cable —Special to Tune B —The political crisis in Germany has, at length, como 10 an end, thanks to what we call in krance a “'patch- ing up process.” Caprivi, In compliance with the emperor’s solicitation, retains the office of chancellor of the empue, Count Botho Kulenburg becomes president of the council of Prussian ministers, and Dr. Brose, who is also a conservative and a pietist of the same tvpe as Count Zedlitz, has accepted the oftico of minister of public worship. No oneis satis- fied with the solution of the’ difticulty for there was really no necessity for an: eight days’ pulitical - upheaval if," dfter all, no change was to be made. The conservatives do not see how any good can be attaived by the sacritice of Count Zedlitzandtheliberals are equally discontented. It appears, how- ever, that Caprivi’s continuance’in oftics was considered essenual by the sovereizns of Austria and Italy and that the emperor's decision is to be explained 1n this way. Many people think that the présent ar rangement vriil be only a temporary one, In 1878 Bismarck attempted to -be ‘chancellor without being Prussian minister, but after ten months he was obliged to abandon the attempt. It is the unanimous opinion that Caprivi caouot hold on longer than three months and that then a real crisis will take place, Itissald that Prince Heory insisted upon an immediate solution of the difficulty, he result being the Caprivi-Euleuburg com' bination. Count Botho Eulenburg, who has just been appointed president of the council of Prus- sian ministers, was born July 81, i831. He held oftice at an early age in the Landrath at Marioneverder and later at Deutschkrone, In 1869 he was president of the government at Weisbaden; in 1502, prefect of Lorraine and Metz in 1573, and president af.the upper province of Hanover in 1875, Subsequently he was ministor of the interior and after tho attacks of Nobeling and Holol, when the government prepared the famous socialist bul, Bluenburg defended the - measure: He was appoiuted president of the upper prov- ince of ieswo and Nassau some months after- ward and has remained ibere up to the present time. He married in 1575 and bus no children. He is conservativo in politics and an abie speaker. The emperor's health unchanged. The ofticial bulletin says: ‘“The emperor is suf- fering from overpowering mental weariness,” He is extremely anxious 10 be present at tho Austrisn ambasaador’s banquet on Suturday, but that he will bo ableto doso1s very doubt- ful, as 1 know from medical sources that tho pain in bis ear is beginning to nffect his neck and thatin consequence his sufferings are more poignant than ever.

Mr. Gladstone spoke on the meas- ureat some length, He admitted that the- bill was an honest effort in the right direc tion, although faluug short of actual o eces- sities of the case.

[Shouts'of “No!" from the Irish members. | Mr. Nolan brought up the shamrock inci- dent in the House of Commons this evening on the third reading of the consolidated fund bill. Several other mombers also spoke on the subject. Mr. McCarthy complained that instond of promising a regulution to prevent a recur- rence of incldents liko that at Aldershot the under secretary spoke as it tho conduct of Irish soldiers in disporting tho shamrock would shake the foundations of discipline in tho British army, Mr. Balfour said that it was the last thing the government wanted to do, to wound the sentiments ot Irish ssoldiers. The ofticer at Aldershot. he said, had forgotten thot 1t was St. Patrick’s day whon he ordered O'Grady to_remove tho shamrock, Mr. MeNeil (Irish nationalist) regrotted that War Secrotary Stanhope had forced tho discussion on the subject, instead of admit- ting, as Mr. Balfour did, that the Aldershot ofticer had committed an indiscrotion. He hoped Mr. Stanhope would now say that no black mark wonld be charged against Privato O'Grady. Sir «I.

There 15, probably, no section of the Rocky ‘mountain region whose resources are so littlo known to the world as that comprising the southern portion of the Laramio plains and the Norttr Park of Coloradu, toward which the attention of mining men is now princi- pally directod, Nor is there, on the other hand, ono in all the west possessing so great a varioty of mineral deposits, incluaing soda, mugnesis, mica, plumbago’ and a score of others, each of which will in time develop an important industry, But it 18 not the purpose at this time to more than allude to theso things, for it is the precious motals that at present excite attertion, Seven years’ moro or less intimate acauaintanco with the country has convitced me that even a plain statement of facts in regard 10 its mineral wealth will bo rocoived almost with incredulity by oven those who have boomed less favorable localities, and without any ut- tempt at_coloring the picture will savor of tho oriental. The Delta of the Two Rivers, In corder that a proper understanding may be kad of the geozraphical position of this section, 1t may be stated that Laramie is sit- uated a% the junction of the Union Pacitic main line and the Laramie, North Park & Pacific, a branch of the same system, com- pleted to Soda Lakes. 1t lies at the western base of the Black Hills range, facing the delta of tho two rivers—the Big and Little Laramie—by far the richest portion of the Laramie plains. On the horizon Diamond peak marks the southern point of a chain of mountains that, sweeping in graceful curves to the west and north until it is lost in tho Medicine Bow range, forms a perfect crescent whoseevening shadow falls upon the vlains. krow the “Gem City' to the neurest of these hills, Sheep mountain, it is thiry miles, “‘as the crow flies,”” though such is the rity of the atmosphere that iu the entire of auything that could obstruct the viow, that from the barrex fianks to the pine claa shoulders of that landmark the outlines ore as distinct as if the distanca was less than one-third of what it is. Down from the suow clad peaxs of the Great Divide, sweep: 1ng around the southern foot of this moun tain, - roll . the crystal waters of tho Big - .Laramio rnwor, which, describing a majostic curve burdered on -either side by fertile meadows and rich grazing lands, flow swiftly yet quiotly through the _city it- self. Inasimilar manner the Little Lar- amie emerges from the beantiful Centennial valley by the northern poirt of the same mountain, 1ts volume swelled by 1nnumera- ble small tributaries, each of which, as well as the river itself, swarms with mountain trout that in summer cause the valley to be- come 4 Vst eucampment, whose canvas walls shelter a host of gisciples of Walton, recruited alike from the ranks of the mo- chunic and the millionaire. The plains, begioniog at an elevation of 7,242 feot above sca level, rise in successive billows that.break at the foot of Sheep woun- tain, back of which is twe valley, which may bo likened to a well shel- terod harbor. Then comes the foot hius, rising gradually,but in mightier waves, until they are lost in the shining crest of 40ld Snowy” or the towering peaks of The Great Continental Divide. From Laramie, roads as straicht, as broad, aud as solid the year round as that by which Rider Haggard reached King Solomon's mines, lead around the south end of Sheer wountain into the North park of Colorado, to Teller, Independence mountsin and other mining camps ; around the north and through Centennial valley to the Keystone, La Plata, French Creek, Gold Hill and adjacent min- ing districts: away to the northwest, toward 1he blue vell that softens the outlines of the Medicine Bow mountains, to the copper and silver camp at the head of Rock Creck, the Miil Creek placers, the Dutton Creek coal measures and the limitless ledges of chrol iron that lie out there awaiting develcpment. 1 havn been thus particular in describing this conttry in order that the reader may, if 50 disposad, trace it on the map, and because I believo thero is no parallel for itin the west. 1 am not ‘‘drawing the long bow’ when 1 assert that the shining sands of the two rivers, the soil of the plaius, the gravel on the bald sides of the foothills and therock of the great mountains are onc and all 1m- preguntel with gola, I do not say that with ihe shovel und pick, or with a blast of giant powder, one can always uncover Australian nuggets or Comstock lodes, but it is never- theless true that if vou pull up a handfull of native grass on the plains, the roots will be found encrusted with *‘flour gold;"” that if you wash out & pan full of gravel from tke river bed, you will aslways find a oolor; that in the Rgulches are gold placers that have been worked suc- cessfully for tvontly years without the aid of hydraulics; that on the mountain sides 1s found “float” that ussays away up in five figures, and copper %5 percent pure, and thay on the time dykes and in all the rock thereis not a foot from the base to ihe granite crest of the Suowy that will ot skow a prospect. A Subtervanean Sea, fous streams to which I alluded creep out from beuneath the cumuli which hover the greater part of the time over old Suowy's crown, and find .their source in 106 melting snows, which the swm- mer suas of centuries uncounted huve beaten upon with all their fervor, only to see the drifts euch year growing deeper. Nor is ull ho water thus conveyed to the plains. Be- neath the gently undulating surface of the lutter "is @ subterranean 563, the hidden prototype of that sen whose waves washed the foothitls of the Wind river, Big Horo, Cusper, Laramie and Medicine Bow mountains before Ararat e- came a port of entry, before the thunders of Sinal were heard, and ages before the chari- ots of pearl and gold in whieh Pharaoh pur- sued Israel were engulfed in the waves of the Red sea, Theso subterrancan waters gush forth from the sides of the Black Hills, the eastern breakwater of that pre-Adamito ocenu, in spriugs of volume sufficient to sup ply a dozen great cities. Oneof these springs actually seuds up at intervals a tiny thread of gold that in the suulight touches the water with & tawny unge. South of 0ld nowy, over in North park, is & placer field five miles long, twenty -live wide and resembling, thourh iur surpassing in extent the so-calied “old river beds’ of Catiforois. in this field is treasuro enough to repro- duce the temple built by Solomon in overy capital in the Unitea States, to pay off the deat of every ualion on earth and orect io each porton the Atlantic and Gulf seaboards a Colossus of ithodes. But unfor tunately water 1s required Lo work placors, and that element is signally deficient in this vicinity. I bave spoken of tuis field, of the goiden spring, of the soil impregnated with the yellow metal, o 1he Fich *‘toal” and the led-es teemiog with troasure, because thoy have ! surround 1be Suowy aud every shining par | ticle, overy Luggol, each bit of wire with its army of prospoctors is now eagerly search. ing. The 010 Aztec Tannels. Bofore speaking of the mountain itself, | want to allude briefly to another feature of its surroundings—commonly known as ‘‘the old Aztec tunnels.”” The first discovery of oxistenco of these ancient workings was made several yoars aco in the viciuity of Laramie peak, ono of tne most familiar iand. marks of the plains. In the foothills west of the peak, and seventeen miles from Rock Croek station, on the Union Pacific, a crowd of cowboys accidentally came upon the mouth of a tunnel leading into the hillside, which bad been partially concealed by o growth of scrub pine. A casual oxamina tion led them several hundred foet under ground, whero further progress was oarred by A cave-in. The presonce of human bones and a few rude imple ments of a description unknown to tho pros ent day, suggestod the theory that tho tun nelled toa mine that had been worked many years ago, which theory was anpar. eutly confirmed by tho oxistence, outside, of ahuge roadway and the presence on tho dump of a vast quantity of rock, apparently taker out by the pro-bistoric miners. In 1888, Hon. Willlam Tavlor of Roek Creek, grub-staked a party of miners, and an attempt was made to reopen the tunnel, but for some reason it was subsequontly abandoned. Similar “workings,” but moro extensivo and botter defined wore discovered last year iu buiding the Rock Creok rond to Gold Hill. 'These consisted of a series of shafts, connected by tunnels extending from the bottom of one to that of tne next, and so on. The general ar- pearance indicated that tho minero had de signed penotrating the heart of the Snowy and striking the storehouse of its troasurcs within the last of its rock-ribbed vaults. Twenty Venrs Age think of it, discovory prior to that of L peak. It was made _over twenty Now, 1 thero was | lazework of wire gold or its flakes and flecks of free gold, bas beon toru from the motber lode 1 the inighty wountain, for which an years ngo by Captain J. H. Mullison, now of Saratogn. His find was on one of ths tribu- 1aries of Brush oreek, and in this instance both shafts and tunnels wero well proserved, though the former were partially filled with debris, collected so long ago thut from tho bottom had grown up trees on which wero counted nearly 200 rings, This sories of workings aiso had the interior of tho mountain for its objective point, and, it is cimmed would, had it been carried to com- plotion, have struck the largest and richest leads now boing deveioped iu the famous Gola Hill eamp of which {Tne Bee has pub- lished s0 much that itis not necessury to more than allude to it. It appears, then, that long before the first white man made his aavent in this region, the existence of gold and silver in considerablo quantities was known to ‘'somebody’’ and that an active ef- fort, whether successful or not wo do not know, was made to get at its biding place. As 1 have said tho Aztecs aro goneraliy crodited with hav- ing sent out the mivers who constructed these works, news of the existence of the troasure having doubtless reached them threurh some nomadic tribe of Indians. That tho latter knew of the whoreabouts of ex- ceedingly rich placer fields is certain, for the knowiedge was transmitted through suc sive generations o a select fow of the tribe, under the death penalty in case of exposure. John Alsop, one of the carly sottlers on the plains, Lut now deceased, told mo personally of a singular adventure he met with when, carly 1n tho 60s, he was employed as a freighter between Cheyenne and North Platte. Having ronderod some servico to an Indian, the latter ono morning called him out bemind the freight wagon and producing a buckskin bag openod it und showod Mr. Alsop A Handful of Gold Nuggets of such enormous size and purity that the sight fairly.took his breath away. He se- lecied one or two and presented them to bis white friend, but, belng urged to reveal the Jocality from which they came, ho refused, and by sigus gave Mr. Alsop to understand that if he didso he would be killed, Mauy u long and expensive search was mado for tho “Lost Place but without success. 1t is now supposed that the nuggets camo from tho bed of one of the streams that flow down the Suowy and that the rock in which they were encrusted was torn from the mother lode by some titanic 1ceberg that swept over the.mouutain in the glacial period. 1 might goor and multiply instances point- ing to the wealth of this treasure mountain, but I think this will do. So nuwmerous and well authenticated are the reports of goid taken from its immediate vicinity in times past that one may well ask if it was not here that the Aztec emperors obtained their vast treasures. Itis within the bonds of possi- bility, - nay, probability, that one or moro of the bands of workers reached the mountain’s heart by tunneling and that from this monarch of the hills was wrested the gold that tempted Cortez’ cupidity and caused the downfall and death of Monte- zuma. - Here, beneath the sunsei shadow of the Great Divide, may have slept the fabled Seven Cities of Quivera, in search of which the gailant Coronado led bis little band of cavaliers across the Llano Estacado to lose heir way and leave their bones to bleach on the prairies of Kausas, Coronado's guest was the result of an Indian’s idle tale, based most likely on trodition, Yet traditions are being verified evory day; excavation has brought to light the ruins of Troy: who shail say that the arct w>logist of the future will not reopen the golden gates of the Seven Cities of Quivern, or that in tho mighty throes of the earth predicted by Lieutenant Totten, Atlantis will not rise from the ocean’s bed and be peopied anew by those whose achievements will make even modern civilization seem primitive?

Referenco is mado to tho Marine band, undor the leadership of tho renowned Sousa, Tha Chicago engagement was highly sucoossful ‘I'he Evoning Post, in a rocent issue, said, concerning tho performanco: Too large audioncoe that assembled at the Auditorium Jast night to hear the United States Marine band enjoyed themselves immensely. Thoy seomed to feol that too much of the & could not be given to them, for thoy enc every number, and sometimios insisted double encore. Porhaps ouch individual member of the nudienco thought that ho puia his provortion for the maiu- tenance of ~ tho organization and that therefore he had a sort of propriotary intorest in its performances which gave him some liberties. At any rate Director Sousa, who is @ miehty good na- tured fellow, quickly and smilingly accoded to their demands, and consequently ove body was in a happy mood. The band 1s ono of the boest ot its kind in the world, and certainly it overtops overy other similar organization in the United States, It has reached a high degree of vir- tuosity and its converts aro artistic affairs of the highest grade. No concerts could be more enjoyable, because they aro novel and the music that tho band intorprets shows tho height of technical excellence. Director Sousa has done much for our Uncle Samuel's musicians, and that saccomphishea baton wielder and composer ought to come in for a goodly share of Uncle Sam’s affection.
