Lue men weighed in at just 1193 pounds at 8 p. . Smith was the favorite in the betting. Swith scored two rght-handers on the ribsin the first and ducked anumber of rushes. Inthe second round he chased the New Yorker about the ring giving both hands about the bead, aud smashed him 10 the face with bis left when he could get iu- side of Siddons’ guard, which the latter kept about bis face. The New Yorker made no effort to retaliate but swood the punishment wenfully, Smith landed three hard left- hauders in the wind. Siddous came up smiling, but wary, and broke ground repeatedly 1n the nexti turee rounds. Smith’s rushes were fruitless with the exception of & couple of right-hanaers in the ribs. Siadous scored a coupie of lefts on Smith's ear in the fifth and appeared con- fident. I'be sixth round was marked by mcre rushes on Smith's part, Siddons runaing or taking tho rib roasters with a smile, appar- ently seoking to tive Smitn. From uhe sev- enih Lo the thirteenth Smith eudeavored to DAILY break down Siddons’ guard, The latter ont soveral antics and aisplayved much forbear ance when Smith fouled him. he twelfth was hot rouna, Smith got- tine Siddons against tho ropes and punishing him_ hard, but could not bring him down, Siddons fought him back With the excoption of the fiftéenth, in which Siddons took a lot of punishment, honors were about even to the twenty-second round, when Smith renewed his whirlwind tactics and threw Siadons through the ropos and nearly off the platform, T'ho end of the twenty-fifth round found the men fiddling for an opening at close quarters. In_ the twenty sixth Siddons nearly dronped Smith with a left on the jaw and & hard fought round followed, Smith bleeding at the mouth. The twenty-seventh round was slow and_from the twenty-eighth to the thirty-fcurth round little was done. Both men wero careful, Sidaons continued to take most of the blows for his hond on his wloves, occasionally parrying or stopping with a0 uppercut. Smith did _most of the work, and too blows gradgually lucked steam. At the end of the fortieth round neither had any advantago. From the fortieth to the end of the fifty-fifth round little was done, At'the end of the Afty-fifth round, not blow having been strack since the fiftieth, Reforee Cook consulted the princivals and announced that as they agreed they could not tinish the contest ho would resorve his decision until the meeting of the board of airectors noxt Monday evening. Siddous evidently soughtat the outset to make it a draw and Smith's strength faited him after the twenty-fifth round by good work on his part. agilistic Talk in New Yonk, Sept. 30.—President Charles Noel of the Olympic elu New Orleans, writes a sporting paper t the Olvmpic ciub will not offer any purse for Petor Jack- son avd Joo Goddard to fight for, because tie southern people do not like to 'see con- tests in whicha white man is opposed by a negro.

Just one hour after the disastrous fire at the Union stock yaras broke out last even- icg another alarm was turned in. The fire was located in a vacant two-story frame dwelling located on the west side of T'wenty- fourth street, between Q and R streets. The fire compauies were yct at thestock yards and it was fully thirty minutes before they could be notified and reach the scene of the fire. The building was an old frame structure and burned rapidly and was completely de- stroved. Tho house was the property of Charles Akofer, the N street butcher, and was worth about $800. How the firo started 15 unexplainea, as 1t had not bsen occnpied for some timo, and may have been the work of an ncediary. September's Market Report, The month of September just closed has been a very prosperous ouo at this market so far as the prices of hogs aro concerned. A comparison with the month of September, 1891, shows a very flattoring state of affairs. The high point 1o 1891 was reached on September 8, when $.25 was paid, aud during this year on the 10th'and 13th with 8540 as the top price. The lowest price paid for a full load was $4.35 on Sentember 30, 1801, and $i.75 on September 1 of this year. The highest ana lowest ave cost_in Septomber, 1891, was 5.07 and $£.65% ogainst £.25% and $4.883; in September, 1502, 'This shows that the market during the month just closed has ranged about 20 to J0c higher on hogs than during the same month of 1591, South Omaha has always been @ great market for stockers aund feeders, and thero is always a big demaund for therm at good prices. Thursday one of the largest shipmeuts ever waag from the yards went out, the total number of head beinz 1,540, A majority of them went to lowa, to be fed and fattened the coming winter for the market. Some of them went to Nebraska feeders, and all will eventually find their way back to the Souti Omaha market as good to choice native beeves, and will bring good prices.

BEE DAY [E ANSWERED THE CHARGES -—— Mayor Bemis R«'p!i‘a to Some Tmputations Made Acairtst Bim by Councilmen. [y — HIS OFFICIAL ACTS. HAVE BEEN OPEN Nothing In flis febord Which Will Not Stand Iy i y Attorney the Late Tivextigation. Mayor Bemis was askod yesterday morn- n “Is it true, as chargad by Councilman Davis, that you signed the water woris warrant at miduight two days after you became mayor!" I would most emphatically say this state- ment is false,” replied the mayor, “and Mr. Davis knows it is faise. The warrant to which ho refers was sizned by me betweoen 2and 3 o'clock in the afternoon after an ex- tended conference with Mr. Goodrich, the ex-comptroller, and Mr. Olsen, the present comptroller, who were both familiar with the nature of the claim for which the war- rant was drawn, and both stated that the claim for which the warrant was drawn was correct and just and should be paid. The appropriation ordinance autnoriz- ing the signing of the warrant was passed before 1 bacame mayor and should have veen approved by ex-Mayor Cushing before his term of office expired. Theve was not then, AN4 CARNOL 10W, be any CONLIOVErsy regard- ing the correctuess of the claim or tho pro- priety of signing the warrant, The warrant covered the hydrant reutals to the water works company under its contract with the city for the six montns prior to January 1, 1802, Since that date, 1 July of "the prosent year, a similar warrant has bteon sigued and delivered covering the hydrant rentals for the six months commencing Janu- ary 1, 1882, If I am correctly intormed Mr. Davis voted in favor of both the appropria- tion ordinances containing theso items, and he cannot but kuow that the items were cor- rect. He also knows, as a_matter of fact, that the warrant signed ip Japuary was paid by the treasurer during the afternoon of the day it was signed, rendering 1t utterly um- possible to have been sigued, as he claims, at midnight. This charge is in keeping with others made by Mr. Davis to divert the at-* tention of the public from matters that should be investigated.” The Bemis Park Parchase, “What is there,” was asked, ‘‘about th chargo that you worked up tio I purchase through your influence as mayor “Itis a notorious fact,” was the rep ‘‘that the property boughtof tho Bemis Park compauy was purchased at half its actual value and was a better purchase than that of any other piece of “proparty acquired, and specitic charges are made 1 will be ready 10 meet them. Two years before I was elected mayor the proberty was recom mended by the park commissioners tor pur- chase by the city ata price $,000 larger than was afterwards puid for it.” “What 1s there;to the charge that you signed warrauts bpfore you had signed ‘the appropriation ordingnce authorizing these warrants “I have never veét signed o warrant until after the appropriation ordinance was signed or until the appropriation had veen passed by the council, signdd by the president of tho council and clerk, and actually in my hands for approval, and not then until after 1 had carefuily examined. the 1tem for which the warrant was to be drawn and satisied my- self tnat such item should be appoved.” About the City Hull Defects. “How did vou come to chacge that tha tower was fourteen feet lower than the con- tract specilied? and how about the report that $600 worth ofthe cornice stone was taken to a stoneyard, although the city paid foriti What do you propose to do next to ferret out tho alleged crookeduess n tha plans ana construction ! i “With regard to the claim that the tower of the city hall was fourteeu feet lower than was specifiod by the contract, I have never made & direct chargo to that effect. I have morely statea that I was informed such was the fact. This is also true with regard to the §600 worth of cornice stono claimea to have been taken to astonevard, notwith- sll.midini( the fact that the city: had paid or it. **With regard Lo my future action concern- ing the defacts and irregularivies in the con- struction of tho city hall, I can only say that 1 propose 1n the fuiure, as in the past, to protect theinterests of the taxpayers as best lcan. In view of the fact that the commit- tee has refused to proceed with investi- gation and forcibly prevented the city attor- ney from examining the witnesses, I pro- pose as best I can to continue the investiza- uon in my own way, I am now satisfied that nothing will be doue and uothing can be expected from the present investigating committee of the council.” Mr, Connell Talks. City Attorney Conuell, being asked what he thought of the action of the investigating commitree, said: “What do I think? Why I think that the committee has absolutely verified the rumors concerning it, that it is & ‘whitewash com- mitice’ and would make a whitewash re- port. In place of allowing wituesses to be called to establish or disprove the statements of the mayor regarding the bluuders of the architect, the dangerous coucition of the elevators and the faulty consiruction of the city hall, the commiitee undertook to run down rumors relating to proposed hite- washing by themselves. Now they not ouly havo thesa rumors, but they have established the truth of the rumors. It would have been a more prudent and ‘proper course to have loft the work of investigating themselves to some other commitive, and then, porhaps, they would have got off with a simplo dose of whitewash. Asit1s, they have black- washed themselves, Their scheme to wrn the 1nvestigation aganst Ma Bemis Il not prove a su ‘the action of tbe comumittee was u con- coctedschemo to stiffe nvestigation and prevent the swokiug out of facts which would be an absolute demonstration of the charges of the mayor. My only puryose in addressing the committee afier the type- written resolutions fixed up by Tom Lowry had been read was to obtain permission to proceed with the examination of the archi- tect and 10 examine other wiluesses present. This permission should have been granted, and it was evidence of the white-washing purpose of the committee to arbitrarily re- fuso me this rigut. I was present atthe request of the mayor and by the authority of the committee had slready commencid the examinatioa of ‘\he architect, whom I naa allowed temporwily to leave the stand while tho statementsof Mr. Counsman were being made, I wax 'sauistied from what I bad previously seen and heard that Tom Lowry would prevept, if he could, any further examination of the witnesses, Upon the committee being ealled w oraer he pro- ceeded to carry out his scheme, “As evidende of Lowry's purpose, we have not ouly the typewritien resolutions which ne brought in, but his own statement to the mayor iudicating what he proposea to do.

The resolu- tion which he afterwards fixed up for adop- tion by McLearie and Prince was the carcy- ing out of this threat. Davis and Chafle “In 1he carrying out of this threat Lowry was aided and abetted by Davis and Chaftee. Botn of these worthies buve been present st every meeting of the committee, although not members of the committes, taking a very earnest interest mn the same, and were even more active than Lowry bimself in demand- ing that the sergeaut-at-arms should require me Lo sit down., One thiog is certain, that whenever I sit down at the dewsnd of either of tnese gentiemen it will be @ sivting down on them, and thet with a thud, pect or anticipate that Mayor Bemis can do very much in protecting tte inierests of the Score the couneil.

Delny of Pablic Work, “The question has frequently boen raised A8 to the cause of the delay in public work. I'he question is easily answerod, Whilo it bas boen somewhat dye to the mistakes of the Board of Public Works and tho change of speeifications, it has beon prineipaily due to Lowry, Davis and Chaffee, who have rep- roseuted ‘contractors 1n piaco of taxpayoers, It is & notorions facr that Lowev is the active agent und roprosentative of Hugh Murphy, the stonu contractor. He has resorted to all sorts of devices and schemes to provent the paviog of stroets with any material except Colorado sandstone. He came very near sue- ceediug in his efforts in that direction on Leavenwortn stroet, but through the active vigilanco of Mr. Ijams and other interosted property ownors he failed, aud to the oreait of the city that street 1s now being paved with Dbrick at alow figure with a ten-year guaranty, in Aocordance with the wish of u lavge majority of the property owners. On the other nand, Davis and Chaflee have con- stantly championed the causs of an asphalt Daving contractor, and undoer the pretense of scoring the mayor have schemed as best they couid to wive asphalt paving to their contractor in place of aliowing it to go to other contractors at a lower tigure. “1 dishike to be drawn intoany contro- versy between the mayor and councitmen. 1| would wuch prefer, so tar as possibie, to re main neutral, but when these councilmen undertake in the high-bunded maunue tempted by them last night to stifle inve gation and foreibly preveat mo from being heard T think it about time to_assert what I consider my rights, and in the languago of Macbeth sav: ‘Lay on Macduff, and damned bo lie who first cries hold, enough ' S COUNTY REPUBLICANS.

This is true of his Don Caesar, but judged by these highest standards his dArtaguan, with justification of superlatives, must be pronounced flawless, & perfect gem of purest comedy. Dumas’ masterpiece is familiar to every. body, and the audienco at the Boyd last evening showed its fullest appreciatiou of the fine presentation of the great romance, This was a leading feature of the perform- ance, the worthy dressing of play sad players. Kach scene was a picture, com- pleto and sausiying i every detail. Allbut one or two of the characters were admirably sustained. And so the hivhest praise is tendered as fairly won. Mr. Salvini’s d’Artagnan has the sparkle of good wine tnac does not lack body either, and the airy frou-frou munuer in which hé carves his way, with “Bob's'" assistauc through all manner of hairbreadth ' to the heartin a woman’s eyc is irresistably captivating to the spectator; Dumas’ immoy tal creation could have po tiner and more faithful embodiment, Mr, William Redmund’s Athos was a fine bit of playing, his story in the third act being capitally spoken, earning bim a full-bodied round of applanse, Cardinal Richelieu suffered at the hands of Mr. Ben Johnson, and the duke of Bucking- bam can sympathize with him. Miss Juditb Berolde was sufficient as Anne of Austria, the laay’s performance showing & marked improveniont on her Maritana, Miss Maud Dixon made & charming Con- stance and Miss Augusta de Forrest, if a little overstrenuous, fairly fullilled the de- mands of Lady do Winter. All in all, no more enjnyable pecformance has been scen in Omaha than that of Mr. Salvini and his com- pauy of players in **I'he Three Guardsmen.” AMUSEMENTS BOYD'S | LSTDL | New | Theater | THIS SATURDAY; 00T, 1, Last two performances of Alexander SALVINI MA EETHIS AFT, A'l )-~(Double Biil.) “ROBERT MACAIRE,” and the acting version of “CAVALLERIA RUSTICANA.” s - Reserved first floor, Tie; general ad- first flovr, eserved buleony, 50c Tvening performance at 8 “THE THREE GUARDSMEN.” Next attraction, Duff Opera Company TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY, OC —THER ~7n DI D ~ DUFF OPERA CO. 10 brilliant repertoire of new operas. ¥, 0ot 4 ‘A TRIP TO AFR CA."— WEDNESDAY, Oct. 5, a double bill, Maseagni's celebrated work ~"CAVALLERIA RUSTIC Kor the tirst time In this eity, rod Sutlivan's —“TRIAL BY JURY.' @ ormasas lazlad s many of the leading artist of thecountry and 50 CHORUS Box Sheets open Monday Morning Next attraction, “J AN Liship COMPANY'S Extract of Besf, Do you want a eup of Beef Tea?
