Not Stay the Ten Konnds.
New - York, June 18. Jere Dunn,
referee in the Slavin-Kilrain glove con
test, rendered his formal decision to
night. He awards the fight to Slavin,
but 'declares that- Kilrain was: not
knocked i out. Bets that; the , contest
would not last ten rounds . are won, be
cause the winner, is declared after less
than .ten rounds had been contested.
Dunn says that timekeeper Daly made
an unfortunate mistake after, the gong
got out of order by not calling out the
seconds that elapsed while Kilrain -was
down. , He then- states he' considers
himself equally at fault in ' not keeping
his eyes equally to the.center of the rin
at that time, in order to see for, himself
how quickly ,Kilrain got up. He ex
plains the , fact that his back wofr to
Kilrain by saying he felt it his dutv, -on-account
of .Slavin's method, of fig'hting

from fouling, Dunn states that Slavin-

NEW YORK IS REPUBLICAN. .
Ex-Senator Piatt Says the Party Will
. Carry the State in November. -
New York, June 18. In a signed edi
torial in the Recorder, Thomas C; Piatt
says: ' ' " '' : - .
''New York ' is a republican state on a
national basis. Of that I am convinced.
Our state has too large manufacturing
interests to be anything else..; The same
reasons should make New York surely
republican this fall, and I. believe they
wilL? -.The republican party, since it re
gained control of the nation in March,
1889, has shown conclusively that it is
the party under whoH-.;; administration
the country prospers, extends its com
merce,, stimulates its manufactures and
becomes respected by foreign nations all
over the world. With able and . popular
candidates, 'and there is a determination
on the part of the party leaders that the
ticket snail be strong in every part, and
with a patriotic and truly American plat
form, ; as the . republican platform.- will
always be, I confidently expect to. see
the state carried, by 'us in' Novel iiber.'

BARDSLEY'S defense.
Claims That his Efforts to get out of his
Original Scrape Places him in his
Present Condition.
Philadelphia, June 18,' Ex-City
Treasurer Bradsley is said to be prepar
ing a defense, which will be presented to
the court -next Tuesday when he comes
up for sentence. In the first place, it is.
stated that he will stoutly deny any in
tentional dishonesty. He will admit, as
he has admitted to the court, that he
violated the letter Of the' law in two particulars-,
first by loaning the public funds
for profit, and .second, . by depositing in
the Keystone bank and elsewhere money
beyond, the limit fixed by the city coun
cil. -This he will assert was the begin
ning and the end. of his offending. As
to the way the money was lost, Bardsley
will throw the whole" responsibility upon
the Keystone bank. He will take the
position that the loss to the public funds '
through its transactions is only, $1,045,
000, and that. part of this is recoverable.
He will say that he became aware a long
time ago of the fact that the public
money which he had deposited in the
Keystone bank had been lost there. As
he has technically violated the law in
making the' deposit, lie could not say
anything publicly about the matter. He
therefore took money from other funds
to meet the payments coming, due from
the funds which had been lost.' Each
payment thus taken1 had been added to
the original loss, until the alleged total
of $2,200,000 is reached, but as a matter
of fact, the actual loss is. only ,$945,000,
for the original due bills and $100,000 for
another matter. This other matter came
about from his efforts to recover himself
when be tuuiid that f he bank had swal
lowed up the $945,000 und is represented
by tha irIOO.OOO,, worth of Chicago street
car fctock, which "was "discovered the
6thtr day. ' He bought ' this stock with
the pnMlfc funds: Avitli-,he expectation
that its. rise lib value would enable him
to . restore some of the missinir monev
and meet some of 'the paytiients as they
in ; part.' " He had aiso some reason to
think that a part at least of the $945,000
would , be made good to him from the
other sources'." He will admit aiso other
"speculAtibns' With the public funds with
a similar purpose, and will declare that
from .first to last he .did.- not take one
dollar for his own use or profit'.'
Narrow Escape of a Fleasure Party.

; An Artificial Lake Bursts.
Vienna, June 18. An artificial lake '
1000 feet long, 350 feet wide and 80 feet
deep,, formed by the Martell glacier, be
hind the Zullfarner' mountain, in the
Tyrol, burst" its "confines today and
flooded the valley, v The huge -volumes
pf escaping water caused a shock like n
earthquake to the surrounding country,
and made a deafening noise. As the in
habitants anticipated the accident and
had made preparations, it is hoped no
fatalities were caused, but reports from
many villages, which have been inun
dated are anxiously awaited. Much
property has been destroyed. The burst
ing of the lake was due to the softening
of the glacier ti which is 1200 feet in thick- -ness.

and be just as glad as the public gen

won't, eay a word 'about the mat:h
race.: ' However, he informed a personal
friend if it had not been for Tenny's ex
