OTW TOKK, Aug. St "Whipped, Into
Insensibility In less than two rounds," Is
the story In brief -of Tom Sharkey's meet
ing -with Bob Fitzsimmons at the Coney
Island Sporting: Club tonight. Fitzsim
mons was the victor. Sharker the loser.
"Fltzslramons said all along that when an
opportunity presented Itself ho -would
prove conclusively that he. was Sharkey's
superior and cettle accounts for tho in
justice done him -when he met Sharkey
In California four years ago. Sharkey
was equally confident that he would
provo to be Fltsslmmons" master In the
ring, but tho result of tonight's battle
and the brevity of -it proved that Fitz
simmons is still a great fighter and able
to beat the best or the heaVywoights.
Ho has beaten Corbett, Ruhlin and
Sharkey.
Fitzsimmons was a decided favorite in
the betting, owing to his showing with
Ruhlin a short time ago. His defeat of
Ruhlin on that occasion and the victory
of Ruhlin over Sharkey a few weeks
earlier were figured on as showing that
"Fitzoimmons ought to whip the sailor
ar this meeting.
When tho .men mot tonight both of
thm declared themselves to be in flrst
class condition and they certainly looked
it. Fitzsimmons had taken on a few
pounds in weight since his meeting with
Ruhlin, but neither he nor Sharkey
voum. ten nis actual weight. Sharkey
looked to be about 20 ' pounds the
heavier.
"When tho men came together Sharkey
assumed the aggressive, rushing fiercely
and swinging wildly. Fitzsimmons haa
no difliculty in tide-stepping out of tho
"way. Bob soon began feinting Sharkey
Into leads, and when the Sailor tried his
roundTarm blows he left himself 6pen, of
which fact Fitzsimmons was quick" to
take advantage and he stepped Inside
and put powerful right and lcf.t smashes
on the Sailor's body and neck, ' He"
stabbed Sharkey with his left, making
tho Sailor lose his temper. Then Sharkey
rushed more wildly than before, musing
oi 01 uie swings while Fitzsimmons
was getting to him with great force and
using both hands.
the ring was so ridiculous that the on
lookers took It as a huge joke. Instead
of resenting It as a gold brick which was
offered them.
Then there was another delay of nearly
an hour before the big fellows made
their appearance. Charley White, the
chosen referee, refused to officiate until
5300 tf as guaranteed -to him. When White
was"granted his point, Fitzsimmons and
his manager insisted that the amount of
the purse, 5,000, should be in sight bc-
zoro tao janky pugilist would enter: the
ring. 2Fust what agreement was made be
tween ffce club manager and Fitzsimmons
could not bo learned;. but Fltzslmmon$ de
clared that he was satisfied as he walked
to tho ringside. Sharkey had been In the
ring fully,, 25 minutes before Fitzsimmons
turned up, 'and Bob was received with
mingled cheers and groans, as the great
majority of those present were not aware
of what -had delayed him. In less thnn
15 minutes afterwards those who groaned
at the old. man were standing on. chairs
and benches cheering madly for the man
who had given Sharkey his quietus.
What the Fighters Sold.
After the battle, when tho men. had re
turned to their dressing-rooms, it was
seen that Fitzsimmons did not show a
mark. He had a slight cut on the Insldo
of his Up; that was all. Fitzsimmons said:
"I've got very little td say other than
I'm glad I won and won quickly. I am
glad for the sake of my wife and children,
and am going to hurry home to them
with all possible speed. I will look for
Jeffries next, .and will be ready to meet
him as soon as arrangements can be
made. I am an old man, but I'm not a
has been,' and I feel- that I can take
caro of myself against all comers for
some time to come."
In an adjoining room Sharkey was be
ing rubbed down by his handlers. He
seemed to be crestfallen at his defeat.
He said:
''Well, I got llckod -sure enough, but
I've got myself to blame for it. I should
not have mlsed It up. That is where I
made the miBtake. I wish the opening
round had lasted about JS seconds longer,
and I would have finished him, as I am
sure I had him going when the bell sep
arated us."
Sharkey had a black eye and a bloody
nose as the result of his meeting with
Fitzsimmons, who beat him down as if
ho had been using a hig .hammer on a
blacksmith's forge.

AMERICAN OARSMEN ABROAD.
Vesper Club Crew Expects to "Win in
Paris.
NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-A dispatch to
the Times from Paris says:
Coach Patrick Dempsey, of the Vesper
Boat Club crew, of Philndelpla, In an in
terview stated that, contrary to the or
iginal intention, ho will not enter a
crew in the foar-oared shell race, and
that the crews rowing would be strictly
confined to the eight-oared race. The
American coach also stated that his
charges are in the pink of condition; in
fact, they were never In better shape,
and If they are beaten no excuses can bo
offered on the strength of lack of qmdl
tion. No accidents of-any kind have over
taken the Americans. In which thpv hv
been particularly fortunate. Even the
change of air and diet has had no deter
rent effect.
The shell, which was received after be
ing somewhat delayed in transit, was
found to be slightly Injured, a few checks
being discovered in its skin, but these
were repaired in a short while. Dempsey
has had much opportunity to observe the
other crews, which are now on the Seine,
and seems more confident that ever of
the Americans' chances. He declared that
his crew were by far the best rigged, and
that the general adaptability of the
stretchers and slides in his boat were Tar
superior to the old-going crews.
The crew representing Germany has ar
rived .here. The Swiss, Italian. Austrian.
Hungarian and Danish oarsmen are ex
pected this week. The Dutch crew has
been chosen from the three chief uni
versities of Holland, and, while their row
ing shows particularly good form, the
American adherents are not fearful or
them. The Dutchmen's average height is
a trifle below that of the Vespers, and
the latter average le3S In weight.
The first heat of the elght-oared shell
race will be rowed on Saturday, and tho
finals will tako place on Sunday. One
thing that has caused considerable dis
cussion here among the rowing enthusi
asts is the fact that while most of the
foreign crews have been picked from the
combined rowing contingents of one na
tion, the Vespers are the pick of but one
single American boat club.

Chicago Labor Matters.
CHICAGO, Aug. 24. The Tribune
morning says:
"Members ot the Building Contract
ors' Council are quietly working to
induce Governor Roosevelt not to speak
ot the coming Labor Day demonstration
of the Building Trades' Council. With
this purpose in view, a copy of the pub
lie letter which contractors addressed to
Mayor Harrison last Spring, setting out
their objections to the central labor body,
has been sent to the Governor.
The contractors disclaim any intention
of attempting to induce the Governor to
remain away, saying they do not propose
to mix up in any such thing, and de
clare their purpose is to inform him as
to tho character of the organization un
der whose allspices he is to speak. At
tho same timo they would not feel dis
appointed If he were not to come."

Article 13 gives $25,000 to the Chapln

asking that tho Instrument bo admitted

Tho question having arisen us to what
was meant by the statement in the will
that securities to the par value of tho

L claries instead of money, a representative
of the Associated Press asked Mr. Tweed
whether a legacy .amounting to $50,000
would be paid by securities of the par
value or . market value of $50,000. Mr.
Tweed replied that that was a question

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 24. Elder Maron S.
Hawkins, missionary of the Church of
Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints,
is under arrest at - the Four Courts.
.accused of pushing Clarence Fuhrer, 5
"years old, to his death beneath a mov
ing train at .Mount Vernon, Ind., at an
early hour today. He was arrested as
the Louisville & Nashville train steamed
intoMhe union depot, this morning.
Elder Hawkins, who lives at Manas
sas, Colo., was returning from seven
months of proselyting in Georgia when
he is alleged to have become the instru
men of Baby Fuhrer'o death. John M.
Pierce, of Mount Carmel, ill., and Pervln
B. Grals,. ot Owensville, Ind., passengers
on the train, witnessed the injury to the
child. Conductor F. M. Albln states that
Hawkins deliberately hurled the baby
from the moving train to the platform,
and that they saw the little fellow roll
from the platform under the wheels,
which passed over him. Hawkins will
be held hero subject to the orders of tho
police pfflcials of Mount Vernon.
Mrs. . Amelia Fuhrer boarded Conduc
tor Albln's train at Evansvllle, Ind., 20
miles from the scene of the tragedy.
She had with her two small children,
Clarence and a younger sister. She was
on her way to Mount Vernon, Ind., to
Join her husband. At Mount Vernon she
arose to leave the train, and here is
where the Mormon came on to the scene.
Ho told his story as follows:
"The woman was leaving the train. I
stepped out on the plitform while the
train was slightly In motion and lifted
the child down the platform. It was un
steady on its feet and rolled off the plat
form. I Jumped on the sleeping-car as It
swung past me on the end of tho train..
I did not push the child off."

The position of the Chinese woman In
her own household Is that which is, or
ought to be, occupied by her sisters in
every clime. She Is left In absolute con
trol of all domestic concerns, and is
given far more to say in the expendi

It Is true she owes obedience to her hus

Is equally so In our own country. The
