OaxrLaxD OFrFicE SAN Francisco CALL,) 908 Broadway, Sept. T t lsst the power of lanalordism in | Ireland is broken acd tbe yeasant-farmer, tice from the British Government.” | This sentiment was uttered by Lieuten- ant-Colonel Keppel of the Salvation Army, who has recently returned from Ireiand. While in that country Colonel' Keppel studiously inguired into its conditions, d with many of the farmers and pro- | prietors, and now says that the efforts of Charles Stewart Parnell-and his followers have succeeded in breaking the back of landlordism and of greatly ameliorating the condition of the small farmers. “Afier having been an American citi- zen for muny years,” said the colonel, | “and b very familiar in my eatly life with the unhappy condition of Ireland, | because it was my boyhood’s home, 1 am { really thankful to be able to say a word of | encouragement to the many here who have reiatives in that country. I made it a special business to find out just how the great farmer tenants of Ireland are being ireated to-day. I wentamong farmers in many parts of the country and learned the truth from their own lips. Although I bave nothing to :ay abou. home rui-I car say positively that ine efforts of Pur- | | nelt and his foliowers have been greatly | rewarded.

There has to be a { valnation made by Government officials | ard the landlord has to pay the tenant a just price for bislavor, and I was intormed tuat these valuations as made by the com- mission are very fair. I will mention just two incidents to il- | lustrate the prozre's madcin fifteen years. | About 1880 I witnessed an eviction. A | man many years before had found a piece , of solid land on a hillside borderingon a It was absolutelv vaiuneless for any pose under the sun. The man set to work and picked out all the rocks and | stones, buili a little cabin of rocks and mud with awall around it. He worked | for years and finally got the land in such | condition that it yielded him a fair living | for his family. “He did not have an extra penny, but | he had by sheer toil made the bleak earth yield him a living. “Finally he was sued to pay rent for | bis own cottage to a landiord who had never done a thing to encourage him and who never came to his estate. He was | too poor to pay rent as the earth would He w therefore, | evicted, and his house pulled down in case | he should go back to live in it. | Now it is different. Just a few weeks | ago I was presentat a transfer of property | from tenant to iandlord, but there was no | basty eviction. The tenant world not pay | what he considered the high rent, so he was ordered to leave. Rut he had greatly | improved the property, and before the landlord could obtain po-session he had to pay a sum equal to $10,000 to the ten- ant for the improvements. Tne tenant | bimsei admitted that the sum was a just one “There is still much to be dons for Ireland, but the condition of the people is better to-day than it has been at any other time in this centur: GRAND JURY ORGANIZES.

The re- | ception to E. D. Shea, his successor, was as frigid as the climate encountered by a gold-seeker crossing the Chilcoot Pass in the far away north. The master of ceremonies announged that Thomas Lansing, whom he intro- | dueed, was ready to fight any 158 pound man in the world, Kid McCoy preferred. The announcement was greeted with de- risive laughter. At the conclusion of the Zeigler-Connolly fight Eddy Graney, representing Joe Choynski, said that he was ready fo match Joe against Lansing. Lansing is a protege of Danny Lynch. Shea also announced that O'Rourke had rece:ved a dispatch from Kid McPartlana, stating that he woull fight the winner of the Ze.gler-Connolly battle. Eimer's fighting wa: a great disappoint- ment to his friends. In his former battles in this city he showed that he possessed a straight left of promisinz executio Last night, emulating the modern fizhters, he chaned it to a swing and it lost all of its cuanning. From the first exchange in the first ronnd, owing to Eimer's tacics, until Refuree Phu{Vund stopped the contest in the sixth, it was evident to those conver-- yant with the game how the battle wouli ezo. Itlooked Case, and so it proved to be. Even in th3 hot exchances in the fifth round Case never Icst his cunning. He was always nursing his right to connect with Elmer’s chin, Phil Wand refereed the contests, ana when he stopped the Eimer-Case bout whaile Elmer in a dazed way was leaning against the ropes nota murmur of disap- proval was heard. Case was the first to enter the rinz. He was esqunirad by Jim Carr and Eddy Wil- liams. Eimer was accorded a warm wel- come He wns seconded by Jack Stelzner, Paisy Corrigan and Hugh Kennedy. Leon Dennery was the timekeeper for the club. Both fighters had their hands in band- ag’s. | “Ihe first round opened with light exchanges. Case planted a lelt] on jaw, which was followed by a clinch. Elmer swung his left instead of sending 1t straight from the sheulder. It missed its mark and Case sent in a body blow. The Denverite avoided a wicked swing. Case ianded a teliing one in the region of the solar plexus. Eimer gently reminded Case that he was in the fight by reaching him with a left swinz. Tne men were strong at the close of the round. Eimer in the second made some wicked swings, nearly all of which fell short or were avoided. Case landed right on El- mer’s neck und left on mouth. This aroused the actor and he sawed the air wildly with his right. Elmerswung reck- lessly with nis left. In nearly all his pre- liminary movements he telegraphed his blows. The round was in Case’s favor. At the commencement of the third round Case sent in a telling rignt on the body, followed by a l=ft on the neck and repeated the dose. Elmer landed r.ght on body and missed a corker for the neck by two inches. Case planted a nice left on the nose, whicu sent Elmer's head s back, and repeated same on body. Elmer of points during the contest. The award was just and fair and every man of un- prejudiced mind coincided with tne referee. The st ry of the fight can be briefly told. Connolly entered the ring knowing that his opponent did not iulfifi his engage- ment as regards weight, but being confi- dent of victory he somewhat reluctantly | consented to fight, after the president of the club had had a conference with bim. According to the articles of agreement the men were to weigh in at 135 pounds at noon on the day of the battle. Connolly fulfilied his part of the con- tract, but 7 igler tipred the beam a: 142 pounds. Manager Abrahams was non- plussed when he saw Z:igler weigh in, but rather than have the public disap- pointed Connolly consented to meet his engagement, and he is now regretting his foolish step. The fight was not as interesting as the sports expected, because of Zz=igler's own peculiar style, which is abour as awkward as could possibly be imagined. The Philadeiphian is not a new man to the sports of thiscity. They have seen him and Green in action, ani they were not disappointed when tbey saw him hunched up, camel-fashion, and swinging right and left in a style hard to imitate. Connolly, on the other hand, is a very stylish fighter, but he found in Zeigler an opponent whose measurs was hard to take. The first ten roundsof the mill were stubbornly contested. It wasthe give and take order, and the fighting was at very close range. Zeigler made several at- tempts to land his big bunch of fives on the jaw of the lad from New B unswick, but Connoily invarizbly avoided a sleep warmer, shifting his head qu.ckly. allow- ing Zeigler’s big right to shoot over his neck and land with a thua on his pack. But Zzigler haa one nasty punch which Connouly felt frequently, and that was a short-arm blow in the ribs: then that ‘“never know what is coming’’ left-hand hook bothered Connolly also. But the New Brunswicker was game and took his | medicine like a litile man and returned compliment for compliment until the closing rcunds of the figut, when his strength commenced to wane, and Zeig- ler, who was strong to the finish, at- tempted to smother him with right and left swings, which appeared to come from no particular direction. The first ronnd of the fight was ovenly contested. Ziegler had the better of the second. In the third there was vicious fightinyg, but Zeigler had a shadc the best ofit. In the tourth Connol v warmed up to tue game and punched Z:igler hard with the right in the short ribs, scoring a good lead at the finish. The fifth was aiso hotly contested. Connolly forced the pace, but was re- puised by the Philadelphian near the finish, after a very hot rally, srom which Z'egler came out best man. ixth was evenly contested, both men scoring about a like number of points. Connolly had the better of the seventh round, but in the eighth Zaigler scored a strong lead, drawing a stream of blood from Coanolly’s nose with a hard right, which landed near the finish of the round.
