A FTEU GBVTHWOL'S A.L.P.
He May Be D*po*ed From Ath!e:lc
Clal> Secretaryship.
A general meeting of the membr»is of
the St. Piul Athletic and Bcwiu£ club
I ha* been celled for tomorrow evening
THE ST. PAUL GLDB3, 7U23).\Y, JULY 10, 19UO.
at the club rooms. The purpose is to get
an expression of opinion as to the future
cf the club and its management.
The financial status of the club haa
been a source of anxiety for some time,
as the expenses have exceeded the re
ceipts.
President Doran states that an effort
is being made to dispense with the serv
ices of Secretary Grathwol, whose sal
ary is $150 per month. This is one of the
largest items of expense. On the prop
osition to shelve tho secretary, the di
rectors have been unable to reach a
conclusion, the three Athletic club mem
bers, Messrs. Egan, Townsend and Grath
wol, opposing, and the three boat club
members being favorable.
President Doran said:
"The directors cannot agree, so we have
decided to get an expression from the
members of the club. I hope there will
be a large turnout of members tomor
row evening. If, after the members are
acquainted with the situation, they be
lieve it is a wise policy to continue pay
ing $150 por month to a secretary, well
and good."

Jeffrie* Itel'u»id to Make a Match
Without Condition*.
NEW YORK, July 9.—Jamea J. Jeffries
will not fight Gus Ruhlln. This decision
was reached tonight at a meeting .at
which fighters, managers and stakehold
ers were present.
Jeffries' injured arm is at present in
bandages, arid the elbow joint is under
the treatment of a physician. When the
fighters met today each »ide thought that
a match would be made, and a date set
for some night in August. Al Smith
held $2,500 of the champion's money, and
was ready to receive a like amount from
Ruhlia as a forfeit. Ruhlin was ready to
put up tho money, but refused to do so
when he found that there was a condition
at hand to Jeffries' forfeit money. He
would fight on any date provided his arm
was well enough, but if not the forfeit
money was to come do-wn. Ruhlln and
his manager refused to enter into an ar
rangement of that kind. They said:
"Make the match, put up a forfeit, and
if for any reason either man rails to en
ter the ring on the given date, let the
other take the forfeit."
No satisfactory agreement could be
reached.
Seeing no chance tp fight for the cham
pionship Madden and Ruhlin turned their
attention to making a match with the
nex.t bj3t man. Bob Fltzsinimons. They
met with immediate success. Fitzsim
mons wanted a fight, and, next to Jef
fries, would rather fight Ruhlin than
anybody. He was ready to talk business
at once, and tomorrow the men will meet
and arrange the details of tno fight. Aa
for date, Ri^hlln is ready to figflt at any
time, the sooner the better, and Fitzsim
mons wants the battle to come off in the
first we-k of August. Fitzsimmons will
begin training at once for the bout.
Jeffries said that he thinks that his
arm will be ready for ring use by Aug.
35, and if Ruhlln beats Fltzsimmons and
wants a fight with him between that
lime and Sept. 1, In can get it. He also
said that when lighting is stopped in
this state he will fight in either Cali
fornia or Nevada.
The club offering the biggest purse or
the greatest percentage of the gate re
ceipts will get the Ruhlin-Fitzsimmong
light.

Blhl<> Rifle Shoot.
LONDON, July 9.—The prospects for
the an?iual meeting of the National Rifle
association, at Bisley, which opened this
morning with fine weather, are not of
the brightest. The absence In South Af
rira of many of the keenest shots, to
gether with the vexatious rules forced
on the competitors by the council of the
National Rifle rss ciation, have com
bined to cave a dlmlnut on in the number
of entries, amounting to nearly 30 per

"I regret to say that Capt. Currle and

several troopers were wounded."
DETAILS OF FIGHTING.
The following dispatch from Lord Rob
erts has been received at the war of
fice:
"Pretoria, Sunday, July 8.-As the ene
my for some days had been threatening
our line of railway by trying to get
round our right flank, I dispatched Hut
ton, July 5, with mounted infantry to
reinforce Mahon. and with orders' to
drive the Boers to the east of Broenker
ipruit. These orders were effectually car
ried out during Friday and Saturday by
Mahon, who was attacked by some 3 000
men with six guns and two Maxims. Our
casualties were:
"Wounded—Two offlcers.including Capt

July 4, for Foresburg, between Bethle
hem and Ficksburg, accompanied by
Christian Dewet and other Free State
commanders, with troops reported num
bering 3,000 men.
"Hanbury-Tracy, commanding at Rus
tenburg. reports t.hat a party or Hu,r 9
under Limmer called on him yesterday
to surrender the town and garrison.
Hanbury-Tracy replied that he held Rus
tenburg for her majesty's government
and intended to continue to occupy it.
The enemy then opened fire with artill
lery and tried to take the heights com
manding the town, but did not succeed
owing to the good arrangements made by
Hanbury-Tracy and his officers. Eventu
ally they were driven off. The enemy
suffered heavily, and five men were cap
tured. Our casualties were two men kill
ed and one officer and three men wound
ad."
BOERS STILL ACTIVE.
As Lord Roberts' dispatches reveal the
Boers are unusually active, both in the
Orange Colony and the so-called pacified
Western Transvaal, but without produc
ing any serious Impression upon the Brit
ish arms.
The bond leaders at the Cape are ex
tending their boycott of British forms,
and Dutch companies with £200,000 capital
have been formed.
Passengers arriving at Lourenzo
Marques on July 9, from Middleburg say
there has been severe fighting between
the latter place and Machadodorp, In
which the Boers were defeated and demor
alized.
The Lourenzo Marques correspondent of
the Dally Telegraph says, under date >f
Ju!y 9:
"1 understand that Mr. Hollls, the
American consul here, has been recalled.
He is a well-known pro-Boer."
DISQUIETING REPORTS. *
The Cape Town correspondent of the
Standard says under dato of July 9:
"The postoJTice authorities have Issued
a notice that civil maiis have been sus
pended for Johannesburg. This, with tho
. fact that telegrams for Pretoria are re
fused, causes uneasiness."
BOER PROTEST.
CAPETOWN, July 9.-At a meeting of
Afrikander womxm here today, called to
protest against the annexation of the re
publics to the British empire and the pun
ishment of rebels. Mrs. Olive»Schreiner-
Cronwright denounced the British policy.
She said she vvaa ashamed of her British
descent, and added:
"If the republics are annexed, If the
Afrikanders are oppressed, peace is Im
possible. Every trench of Boer dead is
a grave of England's honor. Every bullet
making a wound also finds a bullet In the
heart of the English empire."
It is reported here that President Kru
ger's retention of large amounts of gold at
Machadodorp has created the utmost dls
oontent among the mercenaries, officers
and men. They expected substantial re
wards for championing the Boer inter
ests, but have received nothing. It is
added that visiting foreigners, who hava
subsequently advocated Intervention, are
believed to have received substantial
aims. Proofs of this, It Is asserted, have
boon discovered in Pretoria, where there
are some startling developments.

today by Rev. H. N. Cobb, of the Reform
ed church board. It was from Amoy, and
read aa follows:
"Everything and everybody all well
Will act under instructions given."
The message was not signed, but is sup
posed to be from the Rev. P. \V. Pitcher,
to whom a message of Inquiry had been
jent. The word "everything" is supposed
to refer to mission property. The Instruc
tions referred to were that no risks should
be run, and that nothing-should be omit
ted to Insure the safety of all the mis
sionaries.
Rev. Dr. H. Klroll, of the Methodist
Episcopal Missionary society, said today
that he was more hopeful than he had
been for the last we^k, and he would not
be surprised if all the missionaries shouM
yet escape. He said that in previous di*
turbanoes the Chinese, converts had prov- '
en remarkably faithful to the mission

DARK DAYS IX CIIIXA.
Mlii Jennie -Evoiu, MtHMloiiiiry.
Wrltea Prom Tung i how.
NEW YORK, July 9.—Miss Jennlo
Evans, for fifteen years a missionary of
the Presbyterian church In China, writes
to her sister, Mrs. S. R. P. Webster, of
Brooklyn, from Tung Chow, May 29, 30
and 31, in part, as follows:
"Matters grow darker and darker all
about us. u'ord comes today that one
of the railroad depots Just out of Peking
(the Peking terminus, for the roads ar«
not allowed inside the city) was burned
by the Boxers, and the other Is to bo
burned today. Cars are not running from
Tien Tslr. to Peking, or Pao Ting Fu to
Peking, so no malls. Missionary stations
have been destroyed, and nine persons
killed, we hear. London missions suffer
ed at one of their out stations. At th»
railway station we hear of no forelgngra
being killed. A Frenchman got Into.
Peking with a knife cut in the back of
the neck. Foreign forces are being H*-nt
for. but what can th<*y do when this
thing spreads all over tho north nearly?
We do not know when our turn may
come. We can hardly expect our col
leagues will escape. We cannot leave,
and even If we wished to go, where could
we go? Now tho cars have stopped, how
can we get away? The old way by boat
would be very dangerous. No, we must
stay and pray God to keep ua. Some of
the gentlemen have gone into the city
to have our highest officials send a guard
of soldiers for both our places Inside
and outside the city.
"May 30.— Such an anxious day as this
has be«n, and yet nothing has come. The
promised soldiers do not come—a few
who did not look like soldiers, came, but
without guns. Now we find the Tao Ta.l
has none there —wo rely alone upon God.
Just after breakfast a number of v*
thought to walk Into the city to attend
a prayer meeting, when the report came
that tho city was full of Boxers, and
that they were coming out to loot our
premises.
"One of the worst a.ntl-forelgn com
manders has his troops stationed from
the city gate out to railway station. The
soldiers say they are not going to fight
Boxers, but prevent any foreign sol
diers from entering the city. I guess it
is pretty evident that the empress dow
ager is at the bottom of this.
'May 31.—A1l qutet during the night, and
today we hear fewer rumors tnnn we
did yesterday. A letter from the minis
ter this noon comforts us. If it is nec
essary, when the fifty marines get to
Peking, he will try to Bend us a few—
does not certainly promise—but he says
he will send down to the gunboat and s«e
if he can us some guns—says he has
not sn much as a pistol at the legation—
not being as well off .m we are here.
One thing the Boxers -wish to do is to
do away with everything foreign, and so
