man named Herman Tyler had been
talking of the affair a good deal and
finally arrested him. Tyler pleaded
guilty and was placed in Pawpaw jail.
He said it was placed there because he
thought suspicion would be directed
toward one Freeman, and be wanted to
get even with him for some fancied
wrong. The locality where the attempt
was made is on a high grade, and bad
the engine struck it a dreadful loss of
life would have resulted.
MUCH LUMBER BVKNKD.
Dalles, Tex., Aug. 1. Ex-City Judge
Charles Fecklor, regarded as one of the
clearest legal minds in Dalles, stated the
law governing prize-fighting as follows:
"The last legislature adopted a new
criminal code which made prize-fighting
a misdemeanor, punishable with a fine
not less than $500 or more than $1000,and
an imprisoment of 30 days. This law
went into operation July 20. That leg
islature also subsequently passed a civil
code and it enacted that fight may take
place by taking out a license for $600.
This law goes into effect September, 30
days before the Corbett-Eitzsimmons
contest. The is no doubt the supreme
court will hold it is or will be the law
after the 1st day of September. The
civij code was adopted last and, there
fore, will take precedence over the
other."
This opinion is concurred in by every
lawyer in Dalles, who has read the law,
and there is no power to prevent the
Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight.
Attempt to Wreck a Train on a High
Grade.
Jackson, Mich.7 Aug. 1. Monday
night an attempt was made to wreck
the Chicago express on the Michigan
Central near Wattaman, a small station
near Kalamazoo. A young man named
Warwick was walking along the track
aiy hen ne discovered a stick of bridge
tVmber lying across the rails, only a few
moments before time for the train.
The matter was placed in the hands of
Detective Parker, who learned that a
At Least OO.OOO.OO Feet Destroyed at
Menominee Last Nipht.
Menominee, Micbu, Aug. 1. It was at
first thought that two men were killed
in the big lumber fire here last night,
but this has proved an error. Many
were injured by flying timbers, those
most seriously hurt being; Anderson
Levigne, head cut; Keats, chief of the
department, nose broken ; Stiles, post
master, head cut; an unknown boy, legs
broken and skull fractured.
As nearly all the territory about was
covered with lumber and ether inflam
mable material, the fire caught simult
aneously at several points, and baffled
the efforts of the firemen, licking up
every stick of timber in the district, to
the amount of fully 60,000,000 feet.
Populists In Convention.
Columbus, O., Aug. 1. The populist
state convention met here today. The

to order. Four women are present.
