Chicago, Aug. 28. A seriouB riot
in connection witb tbe packing
bouse strike occurred tonight in
front of a saloon : on Ada : street
kept by Ignatz Hornatsky." Sever
al men who were alleged to be non
union men were pureued along Ada
street, and in order to escape the
mob, which numbered- eeveral hun
dred and were pelting them with
stones, they ran into the saloon of
Hornatsky.: The saloonkeeper
barred the door the men bad en
tered and refused to . admit tbe
crowd. They at once smashed all
the windows in the place and,
breaking down tbe doors, rushed in
and demanded that tbe saloon keep
er give up tbe nonunion men. These
had made their escape by the back
door, and while the saloon keeper
barricaded himself behind the ..bar
bis wife, Mrs. Hornatsky, . ran ' up
stairs and returned with a shotgun
bhe commenced to hre as soon as
she entered the room, and her first
shot took effect in tbe shoulder of
Peter Wisor," who was leading the
mob. The crowd at once fled from
the place, . carrying Wisor with
them.
Hornatsky then barricaded the
doors and windows to the best of
his ability, and tbe mob, after re
treating a short distance, left two
men to care for Wisor and returned
to the attack.
- Mrs. Hornatsky, with her .shot
gun, reloaded and took a position in
the doorway and stood waiting for
the mob, when a wagon of police
came around the corner in response
to a riot call that bad been turned
io. The officers at once charged
the crowd and dispersed it, captur
ing nine members of the mob, who
were taken ta the police station.

denied strenuously by all othcials
of the local unions that the strike
will be called off.
Alderman Carey, in whose ward
a part of the stockyards are locat
ed, tried late this afternoon to ar
range a meeting between the strik
ers and packers, .but failed. He
was informed by the packers that

conference with tbe strikers at .any
time. . . . - .; f''
In a signed statement issued to
day, President Donnelly said:
"Our national executive commit
tee convenes here for the purpose of
framing another proposition of
peace to the patkers. If this is re'
fused, we shall meet the committee
of the city council on Monday to
demand that a thorough investiga
tion be made into the immoral and
unsacitary conditions now existing
in the stockyards. We are prepar
ing evidence to present before the
aldermanic committee to verify onr
statements. ,
The peace proposal to be present
ed to the packers will be submitted
to tbe national executive commit
tee, aod then be forwarded to the
packers direct. It is understood to
be a simple proposition to return to
work without piejudice, as the de
mand for labor warrants, and to
leave all questions of wages and
working conditions to arbitration

bombardment against the stomach
of his opponent, and each shot was
followed by a blow on the jiw, that
sent Monroe to his knees. Jeffries
went oack t j bis corner after the
opening round wi.h a sneer and a
laugh on his swarthy face, while
Monroe's seconds busied themselves
with smelling salts and restoratives.
When the two came, together for
the eecond round the laugh on the
champion's 5 visage changed to a
took of determination that boded ill
to the miner. Forty-rive -seconds
after the gocg sounded Monroe wa9
lying .on the floor, a bloody, brais
ed mats. of humanity with ' Jeffries
standing over him, ready, if neces
sary., 'to put the qaietus on the
championship ambitions of bis ad
versary. -:. ...
1 he miner was too dazed to rise
to hii feet, end the timekeepers
counted him out, but the husky
man from Southern California did
not understand that the victory was
already bis, nor conld Monroe real
ize that his pugilittic star had so
early Bet, and the two , men, , in'a
moment or two, were facing one
another, and Jeffries landed a ter
rific blow on tbe jaw of bis stag
gering opponent. It was at this
time that Graiiey came forward and
ordered Jeffries away, telling - him
the tight was ended in his favor.
Menroe tottered to his corner
with blood streaming from his face
and fell into his chair iazad and
helpless. His seconds immediately
began working on bim to freshen
him, and when be came to a reali
zation that the fight had gone a
gainst him, be arcse and, going over
to t - Referee Gianey, began to
make protest. The huge crowd un
derstood from bis protesting gestic
ulations the purport of bis talk to
Graney, and a mighty volume of
hooting, jeering and hissing gave
evidence of the sentiments of the
spectators, many of whom had plac
ed monej on tbe miner that he
would stand at least double the
number of rounds before the cham
pion. '
From the time that the bell rang
fot 'the commencement of the battle
to the time that the count of ten
had been uttered against Monroe,
only four minute3 and 45 seconds
had elapsed.: Tbe fight -demonstrated,
if nothing else, that the world
has yet to produce a pugilist who
will displace James J. Jeftnea as
champion of the world. ' v
A great throng witnessed the con
test, the estimates of the number in
attendance raDging from y, 000 to
9,000,, and it is believed the gate
receipts will approximate $35,000.
X he shots that sent Miner Mon
roe were of the short-arm variety
that found easy lodgement on the
jaw of tbe man from Butte, but that
there must have been terrific 1m
pact behind them was shown by
tbe way in which the 2oo pounds of
flesh went down with a thud upon
the canvass. After the fight Jef
fries said to his friends:
All that I can say is that I am
greatly surprised at the speedy vie
tory. it was that left: hook to the
jaw in the first round that did tbe
work. I eusss be felt a few of those
body blows also.: This fellow is
not in Corbett'e or Fitzsimmons'
cla-s. I wanted to give him a good
walloping; maybe I gave him, few.
I am only sorry "I had not the
chance to give him a few more har
der knockB than I was able to do. I
will admit I have some bitterness
against Monroe, for it was through
his friends and from his camp that
I have been called a cur. Why, I
have trained as if I were going to
meet' Corbttt or . Fittzsimmons.
There was actually nothing to tbig

San Francisco, Aug. 26. Like

tremely sorry showing that the

Chefoo, . Aug. 28. Information
which to a great extent confirms
previous reports of the conditions at
Port Arthur was received today by
junks which left there on August
24 and 26. The most important
statement by tbe passengers on these
junks who were interviewed by the
correspondent of the . Associated
Press confirms the reports that tbe
Russians have been driven from tbe
fort immediately east of the rail
road. This fort is named Rihlun-
shan, and is located on tbe tail of
the Dragon Hills, along the sum
mits of which the eastern defenses
of Port Arthur are built.
Wben the Russian forces retired
from Fort Itzshan they entered Fort
No. 15. to the north of Chao Chan
ko. During tbe Bights of August
13 and 19, while it was raining, the
Japanese attempted to storm Fort
Antszshan, which is a strong posi
tion adjoining Itzshan towards the
city, but they were repulsed with
London, Aug. 2o.- The London
papers this morning have - numer
ous special dispatches from the Far
&ast, most-of them dealing with
the position or fort Arthur. It is
pointed out that the Japanese tac
tics are very similar to those adopt
ed by General Oyama m 1894.
Equal interest is displayed here
in what Is regarded as the" precarl
ous position cf General Kuropat
kin's forces. According to a dis-
patch to the Daily Mail from Kou
pangtze, dated August 27, Russian
staff officers confess themselves
completely in the dark, as to tbe
meaning of the Japanese move
ments and that consequently they
have no definite plan.
Ten dry 8 ago, feeling that Liao
Yang would be surrounded, Gener
al Kuropatkin began to draw his
troops northward. Then on the
Japanese retiring, he brought them
back again, butcontinued his prep
arations for a retreat.
There is no doubt, says the cor
respondent, that the Russian army
is now completely at the mercy of
the Japanese whenever they choose
to attack. .
The Liao Yang correspondent of
the Daily Telegraph, in a dispatch
dated .August 28, says that the Jap
anese are pushing in against three,
sides of the city, near which there
is continuous, fighting. .A, great
quantity of transportation has been
sent north, leaving Liao Yang ready
for all eventualities.
The Japanese are reported to be
adopting a new method of night at
tack. They concentrate search
lights on the point attacked thus
preventing the gam-on from seeing
anything. .
The Tientsin correspondent of
the Standard, discussing the dist
ance the Japanese are now from
Port Arthur, declares that they are
unable to approach nearer the new
town, towing to the fire from , the
Russian shirs. The Japanese com
mandei, the correspondent says,
has ordered that no shells be tbrown
into town, for "the sake of the non-combatants.
The attempt to attack the forts
from tbe outside lines, both to the
westward and eastward, will ad
vance from tbe north with a view
of assaulting the forts from the in
side. Tbe correspondent adds that
owing to tbe extensive mine area
tbe co-operation of the fleet is difficult.

It is noteworthy that nearlyall r
the republicans who-decline to sup- -port
Roosevelt do so on the ground- .
of his violationsof the Constitution, .
disregard of law and ponerally ar- '
bitrary, erratic nn;J dangerous
course or action. , as xiecreiary
Bout well, of Massachn -n-, said ta
the correspondent of Too World:
"The election of Mr. Roosevelt "
would be a dangerous thing. ; No
man Can tell what he is likely to
do. ' He probably could not, him- ;
self tell, 88 strange is bis tempera
ment, so uncertain bis orbit."
These judgments emphasize the
truth of The World's declaration to
Mr. Roosevelt io its Open Letter:
''The paramount issue of tbis cam- '
paign is not, as you would - have it, .
free trade or free silver, but YOU
yourself Theodore Roosevelt. They
show, furthermore, tbe weakness of
the common republican charge, that
though Judge Parker himself is ju
dicial," deliberate, conservative and
upright, "the voters behind bim,"
are dangerous. The mass of repub
lican voters are undoubtedly safe
and sane; yet a large number ) of
republicans will not vote for Roose-
velt because they do not regard him
as safe. "A Parker Constitutional
Club," has been formed in this city,
starting with fifty leading lawyers,
including the most ieminent mem
bers of the bar, "to advance the
cause oi constitutional government,
civic freedom and adherence to law
by pmoting-the eleetictr-cf Judge ...
Alton Brooks Parker to the presi- ;
dency. These men know thatrad- ,
ical democrats will not administer .
the office of President in case Judge
Parker shall be elected, just as they
feaf and know that conservative re
publicans will not be able to shape
the course or check the belligerent
impulses ot Mr. Roosevelt if he
shall be given a vote of confidence
by the people aod told to "go ahead"
in bis own egotistic, self-willed and
arrogant way. Sensible men real
ize that they are to" vote for a presi- '
dent, not for a mass or a mob of .
partisans; for an executive, charg
ed witb the duty of recommending
to congrese, armed with the veto
power, authorized to make treaties
and conduct our foreign relations,
sworn to maintain the Constitution
and enforce the laws. And an in
creasingly large number of voters
are coming to believe that Judge
Parker would, Snake a better, and
safer president than Col. Rooeevelt,
