as experiments and the construction
of some small experimental tanks.
Another bill which the committee has
already reported is for the appoint
ment of a commission with power to
negotiate with Mexico about the con
struction of an international dam at
ElPaso. The most prominent
measure which will be reported
by thecommittee on irrigation is a bill
which will be prepared by Plumb. It
will contain the following provisions
First All water on public lands
shall be inalienable from the land and
be used for beneficial purposes under
the laws of the state where looated.
Second. That there .shall be a
right ot access at all limes to the wa
ter and for the purposo of irrigation.
Third. There shall be a permanent
right of way over all pnblic lands to
the water supply, and that a provision
to this effect shall be inserted in all
the land patents.
Fourth. The United States is to ex
ercise jurisdiction as it can over inter
state waters.
In repeals as far as arable land
goes, all land laws except the home

land shall be forty acres, and that the
largest disposable tract shall be 1G0
acres. A commissioner ot irrigation
is to decide for each district, which
unit shall prevail.
His decision is to be based upon cli

semi-tropical regions, a forty-acre unit
shall prevail. In a grain region the
unit may be 1C0 arces. The engineer

report of the committee on communi
cation of Pacific ocean. It recom
mends the subsidizing of one or more

Washington, 21. General Crook
was in his G2nd year, and had he lived
would have beeu retired for age in
September. If President HarrLson
selects the successor to General Crook
according to seniority, Miles will
be the next Major General,
as he stands at the head of the list of
brigadiers and is the youngest general
officer ot the army. Among tho mili
tary officers who naturally associate
promotion with the death of a senior,
the feeling in general is that
Miles will sucecd Crook, but there is a
great diversity of opinion among these
gentlemen as to who will succeed
Miles. There are forty colonels of the
line anil it is sare to assnme
that . fullv half of this
number will bo applicants for promo
tion. Col. Gnerson of the Tenth
cavalry is the senior colonel of his
corps and ot the army. He has an ex
cellent record and is a very deserving
officer. Col. Grierson "will retire from
age, in July next and it would be a
grateful tribute to his services if
President Harrison would advance
this old veteran to the grado of
brigadier.

deposit to fight at 133, forfeited the
championship to Carroll and signed to
fight at 137. The purse was
83,000 of which 300 went to the loser
and a side bet of 5,000 each. Four
ounce gloves were to be used.
An intensely bitter feeling ex
ists between the two men
it was expected that the contest would
be bitterly fought till the finish. Not
withstanding the rumors of "fake,"
etc., which originated from
the recklessness with which
McAuliffe's eastern backers and
admirers were placing money on him,
betting was nearly two to one in favor
ot McAuliffe. Both men were in the
very finest condition and confidence.
Carroll weighed 133). His seconds
were Florrio Barnett and Martin Mur
phy. McAuliffe weighed 134, and
wa3 seconded by Jack Dempsey and
Billv Madden. Hiram Cook was ref
eree.
After caution by tho referee, the
men came together for tho first round
at 9:10. McAuliffe was the first to
lead, but was countered haimlessly
by CarroH, when both clinched
Both tried for belly and got there. On
the break away Carrol tried the fam
ous La Blanclie pivot blow but failed
to get there. Both did good in-fighting.
Bound 2 McAuliffe came up full of
confidence, but Carroll immediately
swung his right in, catching McAuliffe
full on the jaw. He again tried tho
pivot blow, but failed. Several rat
tling exchanges took place, and at the
close Carroll had a shade the better
of it.
Bound 3 McAuliffe was cautious,
Carroll was on the defensive. Mc
Auliffe got at him hot with both hands;
more in-fighting with McAuliffe now
the favorite.
Bound 1 Mac feinted, then upper
cut Carrol a number of times.
Bound 5 Mac led and was brought
to his knees by a heavy county on the
jaw. Carrol tried to follow up his ad
vantage but McAnliffe was not hurt
any and sailed in, and made it lively
till time was called.
Bound G Carroll still on tho de
fensive and McAuliffe very cautions.
Bound 7 It was give and take
without any advantage.
Bound 8 Carroll camo up showing
his right eyo blackened from the
work in the previous round, and but
little fighting was done in this and
the ninth round.
Bounds 10 and 11 Carroll became
the aggressor, but got much the worst
of it on the face and body, McAuliffe
proving wonderfully clever.
Bound 12 Was desperately fought.
After a few passes McAuliffe got in a
terrific right on Carroll's jaw following
it with a straight left A clinch fol
lowed and Carroll went to the floor,
striking hard. He was up in six sec
onds and a terrible slog took place
toward the end. McAuliffe appeared
fared and Carroll catching him, with a
swing brought him to the floor. Both
went to their corners all but done.
Bound 13 Both sparred for wind,
but Carroll seemed determined to do
or die, and he got in one clean blow
of the round on McAuliffe's month,
which brought him to the ropes show
ing blood.
Bound 14 Both looked well aud
fought at long range, Carroll appear
ing distressed.
Bounds 15 to 18 were very
cleverly fought, Carroll doing some
fine ducking and escaping many well
meant leads and swings and going to
his corner with a smile of confidence.
Bound 19 McAuliffe kept jabbing
away at Carroll's wind, receiving an
occasional good return.
Bounds 20 to 23 Were mostly long
range work with occasionally a rally
in which McAuliffe seemed to have
the advantage. He now appeared
fresher of the two. Carroll several
times tried tho pivot blow but failed
to score.
Bounds 26 to 29 In favor of Mc
Auliffe, who kept at Carroll's wind
and appeared in better shape ot the
two.
Bound 30 Carroll caught McAn
liffo a stinger on the neck with a pivot
blow.
Bounds 31 to 36 Found the men in
about the same condition, Mc
Auliffe's time honored fighting pants
were being gradually cut away to cool
his heated lunbs.
Bound 37 Uneventful.
Bound 38 Was a slog from tho
start and without any apparent ad
vantage and both, men went to their
corners wet
Bound 39 McAuliffe landed blow
after blow on Carroll, who kept com
ing for more.
Bounds 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 The men
fought at a rather slow gait, both be
ing very tired, and McAuliffe showing
his right eye partially closed, the re
sult of Carroll's left counter.
Bound 45 and 46 These found Car
roll still pushing matters. He now ap
peared the stronger of the two, Mc
Auliffe's blows lacking their former
strength while Carroll played hard on
his wind.
Bound 47 McAuliffe won. Carroll
came at Jack with a rush. The latter
wa3 all there and worked on Carroll
with both hands, and thongh very
weak they still kept at it.
"Jarroii nrst tiring. McAuiitte in a
swing on Carroll's jaw dazed him, and
from this on he wasn't in it. Mc
Auliffe swung a heavy right on the jaw
bringing him to the floor. He was to
weak to rise, and on the call of time
the fight was given to McAuliffe. It
was one of the gamest, cleverest fights
ever witnessed, Carrol never being out
of it until aone.

It Has Been Found In Gallagher's (iulch.
Special to The Astokian.
Tacoma, March 21. There is great
excitement here over the discover- of
gold in Gallagher's gulch, at the south
end of the city. Color was struck by
an unknown man several days since.
Ho had hardly sunk his first shaft,
however, when a second man came
.along, staked a claim and went to
worK. Several others followed suit,
and now several shafts havo been
sunlc ana a constantly increasing
force of expectant prospectors are
working early and late, going deeper
and still deeper in search of bed rock.
It is more than possible that within a
few days Gallagher's Gulch willbe
lined its entire length with excited gold
seekers. The matter wa3 kept quiet
and Mr. Berthnme, state geolo
gist was hurriedly engaged to
examine into and report his
opinion of the alleged discovery.
As a result he appeared before
tho comissioners and submitted a re
port, in which he savs he has found
gold, but does not think it in sufficient
quantities to justify calling the land
mining property. Shafts, however,
have not been sunk deep enough
to show the bed rock and
the value of the discovery
is by no means determined. Pros
pectors, however, are sanguine of suc
cess, having already panned color and
being confident that gold exists in pay
ing quantities deeper down. The
land filed upon is most valuable and
is estimated to be worth S30,000.
