THE SLUGGERS.
AMONG TIIK NOTED TKI7.E-
F1GHTEKS,
Carroll Outlines the Future or
FItzfiluimtuia the Great Middle
weight. New Yokk, Jan. 2:1. Bobert
Fitzsi nnnons and Jimmy Carrol i
have broken up quarters at the
Bay of St. .Louis, .Miss., where
they have resided with their fami
lies" for ths past six months, and
are now in New Orieans for a few
days, preparatory to starting on a
tour ot tlie north anu r.ast, tnence
to Europe. The families of the
two pugilists left for San trancisco
. -. . i . 1
via ienver touay, wnere tuey
will await the return of the pugi
lists. Fitzsimmons leaves all
business matters to Carroll. The
latter said in regard to Jim Hull
that there is no doubt Hall is the
greatest middle-weight in Austra
lia. "Muiier. tue sporunir euuor
of the Sidney Referee, claims that
Mike IJooley is a world-beater in
the middle-weight class, and can
easily defeat Fitz. Said Carroll :
If fcimiler is so sure uooiey can
defeat Fitz all he has to do is to
brine Dooley over and any club
that will put up a purse the size of
that for w hich Dempsey and Fitz
simmons fought can secure the
battle. I will also make an out
side bet of $10,000 that iilzsiiu-
mons wins, but the match must be
under the same terms as the
Dempsey contest, the men to
weigh 154 pounds at the ringside.
The same offer applies to Hall,
anl I know both are good men.
As for Bat Farrell, ot fittsburg,
he can also get a light under the
Dempsey conditions if lie can gel
some club to offer $12,000, or can
find backing for $10,000, provided
I feel satislied the club making
the offer is one where the best
man is allowed to win.
Our tour will be a short one as
far as America is concerned. Our
programme is to go to New York
by easy stages, and from there
leave at once for England. The
Burke-Pritchard match will be
fought by that time, and Fitz
simmons will try and get a match
with the winner. But in England
he will not fight for less
than the Dempsey purse. That is
Fitz's price now.
After our tour through England
and Ireland, we will come directly
to New Orles us and give a mon
ster reception and benefit, during
which Fitzsimmons will be pre
sented with a diamond emblema
tic of the heavy-weight champion
ship. It is being gotten up by
friends in New Orleans and bv San
Francisco members of the Athletic
Club.

Abe Men Gone.

The Nrws Is Totally Unexpected-It Wi l
Canse Universal Eogrot - B:ief Bo-vi-w
of His Servlcrs.
New Yokk, Jan. 20. lion. Wil
liam U ii.d. m, secretary of the
treasury of the United States, died
to-nit:! it at 10:05 o'clock in the
banquet ball at Delmonico's,
where he was the guest of the
New York board oi trade and
transportation'. His had been
the first toast of the evening, lie
had finished the response, boated
himself, swooned at once and died
almost immediately. Every ell'ott
was made to res'ore him, but in
vain, lie died of heart disease.
Tlie great assembl ige at or.ee dis
solved. Mr. Windom bad been
the only speaker and the senti
ment to which he responded was
''Our country's piosperity is de
pendent upon its instruments of
commerce.
When Secretary Windom was
hearing the end of his speech it
had been remarked that lie was
reading olf hurriedly from printed
copy, going faster and faster as lie
neared the end, and at last be bad
requested the audience not to ap
plaud. A quiver of fear shot
through the assemblage like an
electric shock as the speaker fin
ished. . Windom was standing
erect under tlie glare of tlie gas
lights, with the faces of all turned
toward hiin. Fur a moment the
secretary stocd silent while the
banqueters equally silent, watched
him. Then Mr. Windou sat down
quietly and the toastinater arose
(o intioduce ex-Secretaiy of State
Bayard as the next speaker. He
began a short speech, but had not
proceeded far when .Mr. Windum
gave a shoit, sharp moan ol an-
yuisli, and tell b.uk in bis i hair.
His face grew purple, his lower
limbs stiffened and stietched out
under the table, his eyelids opened
and shut sp.isinodicady, but there
was no ul-'diu ot intelligence in the
eyes w hich weie rapid:y losing the
lustre of lue. ihc cgur which he
had been smoking yas held be
tween the grim tlii.ch of bis teeth,
hut only fra moment he appeared
thus. The cry went up from those
sitting near the guest table, ''Look,
look at Mr. mdoni, and every
eyewaa turned ..tu$-t&. the mail
whose voice had just ceased. As
they looked be collapsed in bis
chair and was falling to the floor.
II is face was ghastly and a cry ol
horror arose lrom tlie late festive
banqueters. There was an im
mediate rush on the part of ail to
indom s chair, but several doc
tors, who were present at the din
ner, got there first and drove the
others back. Ir. J.obinon bent
down and making a close exami
nation ef tlie prostrate form, dis-
coveied the heart yet beating, and
wiih some assistance carried him
into the room behind the banquet
hall, and everything was done to
resuscitate him. Electric batteries
were applied to his body, but it
was rapidly growing cold. For
six minutes electric shocks were
applied incessantly, but without
success. He was pronounced
dead.
"I would say the cause of death
was appoplexy," said Dr. Robin
son, "if it where not for his story of
heart dieease. I am inclined to
think heart disease killed him.
Mr. Windom was subject to fits,
and heait failure." On Tuesday
last he was seized with an attack
while on the steps of tlie treasury
at Washington.
The body was removed to tlie
Fifth avenue hotel and a dispatch
sent to President Harrison. Tlie
body will te sent to Washington
on a special train in the morning
in charge of a special commit tee.
Washington, Jan. 20. Secretary
Windom left Washington this
morning, apparently in perfect
health, to attend tlie banquet of
the board of trade and transporta
tion at New York this evening,
where be was to make an address
outlining the fiscal policy of the
government. The news of Secre
tary Windom's death was com
municated to the piesident by the
Asso iatetl l'ress and he was so
shocked and overcome by the sud
den announcement that lie was
unable to say anything with re
spect to the luss he has suffered.
William Windom was born in
Belmont county, Ohio, May 10,
1S27. He received an academic
education, studied law at Mount
Vernon, Ohio, and was admitted
to the bar in 1850. In 1S52 he he
came prosecuting attorney for
Knox county, but in 1855 be re
moved to Minnesota, and aion
afterward he was chosen to con
gress from that state as a republi
can, serving from 185'J till ISO'J.
In that body he seived two terms
as chairman of (he committee on
Indian affairs and also was at the
head of the special e'ommittee to
visit the western tribes in 1805,
and of that on the conduct of the
commissioner of Indian affairs in
1SG7. In 1870 he was appointed to
the U. S. senate to fill the unex
pired term of Daniel 8. Norton,
deceased, and he was subsequent
ly chosen for the term that ended
in 1877. He was re-elected for the
one that closed in 1883, and re
signed in 1881 to enter the cabinet
j of President Garfield aastcretary
ot the treasury, but retired en the
accession of President Arthur in
t!e same vear. and was elected by
the Minnesota legislature to servjf
the remainder of hs term in.-tite
senate. In that body Mr. yitani
acted as chairman ofttte com
mittee on appropriations, foreign
affairs, and transportation.
President Harrison made him
secretary of the treasury.

AT .-WASHINGTON
A CIVIL SKKVICE BILL THAT
EXCEEDS FOlt.ll EK YEA It S.
Sickness at the White House At
tributed to I'lant Llecorations -Doljilifora
Coaling Station.
Washington-, Jan. 20. The sun
dry civil bill, as completed by tlu
subcommittee, is the largest ap
propriation of any similar bid for
many yrars, footing up more than
i.ti,0U0. This is due to the eavy
appropriations for public buildings
heretofore authorize , harbor im
provements, special appropriation
of $700,000 for government's ex
hibit at the world s lair and a
million dollar) appropriation for
the census.
Mrs. Harrison has nearly re
covered from the attack of dipb-
theretic fore throat, but Mrs.
McKie has been taken ill with a
severe case ot tousilitas. ur.
Gardner has decided that much of
the sickness at the White house
comes from the almost continuous
presence of the large ferns and
plants used in decorating tlie
rooms on the occasion of dinners
and receptions. They accumulated
an unhealthy amount of dampness.
Senator Dolph to-day proposed
an amendment to the naval appro
priation bill making the amount
)00,(K10 for the maintenance of a
coaling and repairing station for
tlie use of the I nited .State" naval
vessels on Peail river, Hawaii
islands.
