Athletic Club, and Connolly was a 3 to 1 favorite.He forced the fighting for the first six rounds, but from that time to the end was at-Couhiz's mercy.The Dunkirk boy landed hard and fast on Connolly's stomach and face and gradually weakened him, till the tenth round, when Connolly was tarely able to stand.Connolly swung viciously time ard again for a knockout, but, with some of the fastest work ever szen here, Couhig avoided the awings and landed on Connolly's stomach, = Several times in the first six rounds Connolly landed upper cuts on Covhig\u2019s chin, but they seemed to lack force, for they did practically no harm.In the third round, Connolly was knocked down and took the count to six.In the 11th round Coubig changed his tactics and made a chopping block of his opponent's head and face, Connolly boing.powerless to defend himself,\u201d le was knocked down with a left swing, but on the count of nine was on his feet only to be hammered all over the ring till

the steamship Roman, vessel and the defendants\u2019 barque the Garibakii.The plaintifi's case was that on February 13th, 1901, shortly before 7.12 p.m., the steamship Roman, a screw steamship of 4,573 tons gross, was on a vovage from Portland, Me., to Liverpool.The Roman was on a course of N.52 degrees E, magnetic, and wae making about twelve knots over the ground.In these circumstances (hose on board the Roman suddenly saw close to and not more than half a point on the port bow the green light of the Garibaldi.The helm of the Roman was at once put bard-a-port, and the engines stopped, but almost immediately the bowsprit of the Garibaldi struck the port bow of the Roman.The defendants\u2019 case was \u2018hat (he Garibaldi, a Norwegian full-rigged ship of 1.387 tong register, was on a voyage from Liverpool to Mobile in ballast.The Garibaldi under all plain =ail was proceeding on a S.W.half S.course, making about a snot, She carried the regulation Mghis for a sailing ship under wav, which were duly extibited and burning brightly and a good look-out was be ing kept on board her.In these circumstances the mast-head Meh of a sleanwhip, which proved to be the Ronan, was seen bv those on board the Garibaldi about four miles distant bearing one point on the starboard bow, and shortly alter the green light of the Roman came in sight on about the same bearing.The Garibaldi was kept on her course, but when the Roman was about a mile distant on the Garibaldi's starboard bow she upened ber red light and shut Sn her ercen.Those on board the Garibbaldi loudly hailed the Roman through a megaphone, but shortly aficrwards the Roman, coming on at great speed, struck the bowsprit of the Garibaldi un tbe starboard side close to the stem, carrying away her head gear and bringing down the foremast; crashing in her port bow, and doing other considerable damage.nounced by Mr.Justice Baraes was that, after a careful consideration as to the course and speed of the vessels, brought the Sourt to the conclusion that the Roman never was in the dark lane or line of obscuration nt all, and such obscuration of the light could Roman was concerned, and therefore it could not by anv possibility whatever have had anything to do with this collision, and the Roman must, therefore, be held alone to blame.\u2014 London Timber, March 3.NOTES.The schr.Fleur de Marie, Captain Desgagne,

is now composed of six battleships, including four of the most powerful of their class afloat.They are the Shikishima, Hatsuse, Asahl and Misa Ka, of i4,800 tons and 14,500 horse power, with a 3] of 18.5 knots.The only thing that can be said against them is that they are furnished with the now condemned Belleville boilers.The other two batileships are the Yashima and Fuji Yama, of 13,500 tons, 14,100 horse-power and 19 knots speed.The six belong to the English Majestic class, but are more modern, ®land have many improvements.They form a compact squadron in themselves superior to that of any other power @[in the Far Eastern seas.\u2019 The armored cruisers number six and belong to one class in size, being of 9850 tons, 19,000 horse-power, and 22.07 knots speed.Four of them, like the four

General Botha has reopened negotiations with the British for peace.As explained here, this action was determined in part by Gencral Itha's discovery, at a recent meeting, that Genera) DeWet's intellect had weaken ed, and that his influence with his followers was diminishing, and that a continuance of the campaign, in view of General DeWetl's irresponsibility, rested with General Botha

asking the judges of the Superior and Circuit Courts to wear shirt-waiste after May 1.The reason assigned for this action ix because of the heat, and that i the judges would consent to wear shirtwaists the attorneys would generally conform to the custom.Judge Allen said today that it was probable that the judges wopld conform to the resolution, and, if 30, an effort would be made to have

to commit suicide by shooting himself in the head while being pursued by & crowd in West street yesterday, is not Albert Jensen, who is much wanted by the Government au- (horities in this country and Sweden.He is John Albert Skoog, a Swede, 35 years old, horn in Stockholm, Sweden, and the son of prominent and wealthy parents.He early began a criminal career, and is pronounced by officials of the United States Service as one of the most expert counterfeiters alive.In March, 1897, he escaped from the penitentiary at Joliet, Ills., while serving a sentence there for making and passing counterfeit $20 bilis, and Chief Hazen, of the Secret Service Department here, has a bench warrant for Skoogs' arrest which had been issued from the United States Cir cuit Court for the Northern District of Illinois.Skoog is wanted in Sweden for making and passing a large number of counterfeit 100 kroner notes, such as are issued by the Bank of Sweden at Stockholm.Skoog was identified at the Hudson street Hospital to-day by Chief Hazen, the means of identification being a mcle on each cheek and one on the temple, and {wo scars on the left index finger.Should Skoog recover, which is likely, he will be returned to Joliet.J nha RUSSIA THREATENS Lonhon, April 11.\u2014 \u201cM.de Giers demands the return of all communications to the Chinese authorities from the Russian legation regarding the Manchurian negotiations,* says .Motrison, wiring to the Times from Pekin, \"and he haw warned Li Hung Chang that, instead of being, as heretofore, an advocate of the Chinese cause in the Conference of the Ministers of the Powers, he will henceforth support the polity of the utmost se verity.\u201cRussizn hax still ample means to indulge this spirit.The report is current, but 1 believe

the lost ground.\" Pekin, April 10.\u2014 A meeting of the Ministers of the Powers will be held to-morrow to consider the reports of the Generals upon atticies | VIII and IX of the joint nole,

under date of April 8 : Another immense and far-reaching Consolidution is about to be launched under the name of the American Light & Traction Co.Its scope is similar to that of the United States Steel Corporation, and its financial plan is almost identical with that company ; but in the present instance the gas and traction enterprises, with which Emerson McMiHan, of this city, is connecta will be merged.into one corpora- on.It is expected that when the consolidation is completed, there will be at least twenty gas, electric light and traction companies combined, with a capitalization of $50,000,000.The charter of the new company was taken out in New Jersey to-day (Saturdav), with a nominal capital stock of $2000.Like the United States Steel Cornoration, this amount is merely for the purpose of getting the scheme into a corporate shape, and the capital figures will be increased from time to time until the amount is sufficient to take in all the companies to which the offer of consolidation is made.POSSIBLE MEMBERS OF COMBINE Among the concerns which will 1e invited to consolidate are the following: Detroit Gas Co.cco ees $4,825,500 Binghampton, N.Y., Gas Works .++ 2+1-v= vroons wee 450,000) Columbus, O., Edison Co.750,000 Consolidated Gas Co., Long Branch, N.J.\u2026\u2026\u2026.\u2026\u2026\u2026.\u2026\u2026.1,000,000 Grand Rapids Gas Co.1,000,000 Jackson, Mich.,

corporation par for par.As was the case in the steel combine, some concerns will get more than par and others in this scheme, it is announced, will get less than par of the 2,650,000 1,762,500 stock, according to their intrinsic value.CONSOLIDATION METHOD EM- \u2019 PLOYED.The method by which the consolidation is expected to be carried out is almost the same as that which J.P.Mor, employed in the formation of the United States Steel Corporation.A circular is to be addressed to the stockholders of three of the most important companies, asking them to deposit their stock with a certain trust company in return for which new stock of the American Light & Traction Cowill be issued.A second circular will then be addressed to the numerous other companies named in the list, and the shareholders of these companies wil be also asked to deposit their stocks in re turn for which the stock of the American Light & Traction Co.will be issued.GREATER STABILITY IN PRICES.Among the advantages of the formation of such a company will be to pro vide a much larger market for the stocks.The proposed company, it is pointed out, will be a much larger company than any of the individual concerns, and there will therefore be à greater stability to the prices of its securities than in the securities of the numerous small gas and traction properties.Union, it is said, will bring about a much more efficient control of the organization.It will also eliminate one man control.It is also pointed out that great economies could be effected in the operation of the consolidated properties.The purchase of coal, among other things, could be transacted much cheaper by one concern than by half a hundred individual companies.rer fp cm re THE GREAT ARMY OF THE RALSTON HEALTH CLUB ARB USERS OF WALT
