nErrtuc special
New York. July 3. Mr. Thomas Sharkey,
the late lamented pugilist, has been cap
tured in the possession of th merchandise.
His out-and-out declaration that he did not
enjoy the mu.h-to-DreUshed acquaintance
of Mrs Lillian Bat-er has- been weighed In
the balanc- and fo-ind wanting.
Not alcne does Mr. Sharkey know the
har.d-orae widcvi. but he has followed her
to cverl p ints on the restless compass,
end. in addition to sending hr many tele
prams, bv which two telegraph companies
hare profited.. lie -also vvrute her amorous
lettrrsv tvblca she suJtered In attempting to
translate.
Mrs. Bauer was lslbly angry when a re
porter for the New York Sunday Telegraph
taw her in her spacious flat at rs West
Fortv-thlrd street She waxed wrathy at
the 'insinuation that she ever thought of
weddiog the man whom Gus Ruhlln used
for a pigskin and made divers observations
reflecting upon the cra.clty of the person
In question. ..
"I wish you would say for me. sud
Mr" Bau'r. "that I never Intended to
quarry a pugilist. The idea is preposterous.
r "He, ivs h doesn't know me, does he?
TVell. Just look at these."
Here Mrs. Bauer produced several tele
grams and letters which proved conclu
sively that Mr. Sharkey had a burning de
sire to forever remain in tne presence o
the pretty widow. The telegrams came from
various places in the country and were ail
tent to the Cadillac Hotel, In this city,
where Mrs. Bauer was then stopping. One
of them asked her to meet him in Buffalo,
-another reaaetted her to come to Detroit.,
B, third craved her presence In PhiladlpbH
and she Isn't to fce blamed for cot going
there and a fourth said he would mot
certainly lose a flint in which h was about
ID engage if Mrs. Bauer didn't glvo him hir
encouragement.
Once, in New York, at a time when sha
was In Chicago la February, according
to :h date line on the letter he becced
Iter to come to New York, and in his billet
doux told her the streets of the town were
covered with Ice and spelled "freezed"
f-r-1-e-s-c-e-d.
It was not this that caused Mrs.
Bauer to become cold toward the lighter,
for she- declare she never had anything
to do with him. but she drew the line
a few lines further down In the letter
when he asked her how she'd like to ba
the Ice man.
"Even if such re possible." ex
claimed Mrs. Bauer, "I wouldn't permit
him to talk to me In that way. On an
other occasion he called me up on the
JoneT-distance telephone, and 1 thought
so much of him I wouldn't even quit
reading a paper to go downstairs and
answer the cIL
"It was he who sent out th rerort that
he was engaged to be married to ice and
then said he didn't know me. He aald
he would d something to 'get even, and
this is what he has done. He wanted to
get even because I wouldn't tell film
where I lived. He saw mo tho other day
and said:
. T Hear You've cot a flatT
" 'Suppose I haveT I replfed-
" 'Oh. nothing.' he said; 'I guess I can
come and call on you,
"Well. I told him I guessed he coulSnt.
and that Is why he got back at me. Oo
you think I'd marry a man who spells
freezed f-r-1-e-s-c-e-d. and refers to De
troit ae 'Detioryt'? Never." ,,,,
Mrs.- Bauer, who lfl an exceedingly pretty
woman 0r cars, met Sharkey when he
was a guest at her husband s hotel In -nl-cago.
She admits she has known him ever
slncr. but declares she was never friendly
l0"An& another thing," Mrs. Bauer con
cluded, "he tells people he loet C.S00 on
the light. He never had that ranch
money-cnly In his mind-and if he lost It
all he lost his mind. I don't care to say
anything harh about thl- man. mind.
only I hate to hav him refer to me as a
dear creature' and then say be doesn t
know mc. It's unfortunate that I am ac
quainted with him, but I'm sorry of it. I
don't care to know any man who eays nit
for 'no.' and spells 'freezed.' 1 rlesced.
All of which tends conclusively to show
tbat Mr. Sharkey Is acquainted with the
lriaow and that ho Is the least tit m-Sed
because she has railroaded his Intentions.

match for the amateur championship of the
United State Golf AMsocUtlon between
Walter J. Travis luid nndlay S. Douglass
Is no exception. Travis' viclorv is rectrtved
with indifference, being neither popular nor
unpopular, but those wno think they know
something about golf agreo tint the antipo
dean wlli make a better champion than
Harriman In the sense that he will always
be ready and In shapo to defend the title.
Harriman was always willing to meet chal
lengers, but ne was rarely In shape: no had
olenty of courage, but he lacked condition.
it Is safe to say Travis will be as machine
like in practicing as he hns been in hU
brilliant plav- during the past week.
Douglas3 u by no means a golfing has

o- the title either this year or last. He
met good men during the week, putting
them aside one after .another in grand style.
Harriman made a bitter fight against Doug

the "somewhat erratic work of the home

f"J yards. In 4. being the only plavr to
make that record during the week. In one
xnateh Travis made the fifth, sixth and sev
enth holes In successive threes, and at dif
ferent times had & two on the second and
the home green. Both Douglas- and Travis
had the first, tenth and twelfth holes in
threes. Douglas, when plavlng against
Hitchcock, had successive tnrres at the
tenth and eleventh holes. The yysrd thir
teenth hole was made in four but twice dur
ing the entire week This was In the quali
fying r und, the record being made by H.

In r.ctual play. Travis, however, went out
on one occasion In Zo on a course the Logoy
of which Is S3, and on another occasion
came home In S3 the boger being 41. The
elghteen-hole record was put to TS by both
Douglass and Travis, the latter establishing
the thlrty-slx-ho!e record at 163.
Travis was easily a third better than last
year, when Douglass put him out In the
semifinals at Onwentsia by r up and 1 to
go, while the Scot's game showed a lack of
practice, not being as steady a it used to
be. It is a coincidence that Travis should
win both the Metropolitan and amateur
championships this season, duplicating
Harriman's feat last jear. and that both
men should have the same opponent for
finalist honors In the premier event.
The failure of the college element to ma

TRFFIUES-nrilLIX MATCH OFF.
Could ot Agree on Conditions
Hulilln to Fight Fltx.
New York. July 9 -James J. Jeffries will
not fight Gus Ruhlin. This decision was
reached at a meeting st which fighters,
managers and stakeholders wtre present,
JefTKes's injured arm Is at present In
bandages, and the elbow Joint is under the
treatment of a phys.clan. Whrn the fighters
met to-daj. each side thought that a match
wouli be made end a date set for some
night in August. Al Smith held riEO of the
champion's money, and was ready at re
ceive a like amount from Ruhlin as a for
feit. Ruhlln was ready to put up the money-,
but refused to do so when he found that
there was a condition at hsnd to Jeffries's
forclit money. He would fl?ht on any date
orovlded his arm was well enough, but If
not. the forfeit money was to come down.
Ruhlin and his manager refused to enter
into an agreement of that kind. They said:
"Make the match, put up a forfeit and
if for any reason either man fails to en
ter the ring on the given date. let the other
take the forfeit,"
No satisfactory agreement could be
reached. Seeing no chance to fight for the
championship. Madden and Ruhlin turned
their attention to making a match with the
next best man Bob Fitztimmons. They met
with immediate success.
Fltzslmmons wanted a fight, and. next to
Jeffries, would rather fight Ruhlln than
anybody He was ready to talk business at
once, and to-morrow the men will meet
and arrange the details of the fight. As for
the date. Ruhlin Is rwidy to fight nt any
time, the sooner the better, and Fitzsim
mon3 want the battle to come off in the
first week of August. Fitzsimmons will be
gin training at once for the bout,
Jeffries says that he thinks his arm will
be ready for ring use by August 1j. and If
Ituh.ln beats Fltteimmon- and wants a
tight with him between that time and Sep
tember I. he can get it. He also says that
when "fighting Is stopped In lhl State ho
will fight In California or Nevada.

Miller of Chicago. Bums W. Fierce of Nova
Scotia and William C. Stlnson of Cam
bridge, Bobble AValthour of Atlanta, who
was also entered for the race, was unable
to ride.
Nelson's pace was terrific throughout the
entire two hours, and he was over a mile
ahead of Stlnon at the end of the thirtieth
mile. Pierce made sixty-three miles seven
eighths lap; Miller sixty miles two-thirds
lap, and Stinsoa fifty-seven miles one

The men were well bunched at tho start,
but Nelson soon began to draw aw ay, keep

In the twelfth mile Miller lost his pace, but
caught it again without much loss. In the
twelfth Nelson passed Stlnson and led all
of the men by a lap. He passed Miller
again in the fifteenth, making two laps on
the latter. After thla Nelson had every
thing his own way, piling up lap after lap,
until In the twenty-f.fth his time was
41'432-5, while Stlnson. the next man. had
ridden twenty-four miles and one lap.
Pierce twenty-three miles and two laps and
Miller twenty-three miles. In the first hour
Nelson did thirty-five miles and twenty
two jards.
Stlnson was practically out of it after the
twent-tlfth mile. Nelson and Pierce lead

wagon was on Vincent Place Bridge and the
employes of tho Jtausch & Lamb optical

Decision as to Whether He Shall
Do So or Not Is Postponed.
Stevenson Arrives in Lincoln and Receives an
Ovation From Men of Three Parties Dem-
( crats Confer About the Campaign.
RnnJBUC SPECIAL.
Lincoln. Neb . July 9. After a protracted
conference to-day between member" cf the
Executive Committee of the National Dem
ocratic Committee and several Populist
leaders, it was decided to postpone all ac
tion upon the vice presidential matter until
after the sessions of the Fusion State con
ventions Wednesday. This was done at thl
urgent solicitation of the Populists, who de
sire to discover for themselves the senlti
ment of tho rank and file of the party.
Mr. Towne frankly told the gentlemen
present that he was willing to make any
sacrifice that leaders aktd of him. that he
sincerely desired the success of the cause,
and that If that sacrifice was to withdraw
as a vice presidential candidate or to con
tinue as the nominee of the PopulNts, he
stood ready to make It,
Chairman Jones was clearly of the opinion
that the Populists shouli be willing to al
low Mr. Towne to withdraw He believed
that if he did so. It would mSr.e It a direct
Issue between the two great parties. The
Kansas City platform was ax broad and
progressive a document, he argued, as the
Pcpullsts could desire, and that if they
were for Mr. Bryan as wnole-soule-lly as
they professed to be. they would rally to
the support of the only anti-Republican
party that premised success.
The ropnllsta' Aritamrnts.
Governor Poyntjr and several of the Pop
ulists present took strong ground against
the withdrawal of Towne. They taid that
la Nebraska this might mean the sacrifice
of the State, if not of Bryan, a part of the
State ticket and the Legislature, which
elects two United States Senators. They
added that many Populists were formerly
Republicans, and if they thought It a pin
to lead them into the Democratic fold hey
were likely to revslt and return to their old
all-gianco or Join the Mlddle-of-the-Roai-ers.
Governor Toynter urged that the better
plan was to have Mr. Tonne remain upon
the ticket. He thought it comparatlvely
easy to arrange In each State, where fusion
exists, a division cf electors between tha
parties, and If there was no chuice fcr Vice
President, and It might possibly be thrown
Into an adverse House, either Stevenson or
Towne could withdraw.
In the end. It was decided to wait until
the sentiment of the Populists would be
more accurately sounded.
Those who participated In the conference
were Mr. Bryan. Stevenson. Towne. Jones.
Campau of Michigan. Stone of Missouri.
George Fred Williams, J. G. J hnson of
Kansas. John I. Martin. G. M. Hitchcock.

and Governor Poj nter.
Democratic Conference.
After the Populists had withdrawn, the
members of the Democratic Committee con
sulted over campaign matters. After It was
over. Mr. Jones. ho hd been designated
as the spokesman, said that It was not a
formally called meetlrg of the committee,
simply a gathering of friends of Sir. Bryan,
who "happened to come to see him at the
ame time. They had talked over matters
connected with the conduct of the cam
paign. Ono new committee will be added to the
list. This will bo known as the Campaign
Committee, and will have immediate
charge of the details of campaign work.
Oae duty that will devolve upon it will
bo the location of headquarters. New York
Is trlns to secure a removal from Chicago,
but the best It may hope for Is a branch
The other committees will be that on
Ways and Means (Finance), the Press Com
mittee and the Executive Committee. Thes
coaimlttees will be appointed by the chair
man, he says, as soon as he can go over the
list and pick out his men.
Matters connected with the conduct of the
campaign were discussed. Among them
was Mr. Bryan's rart in the campaign. His
wish is that he make but a few speeches
and these at long Intervals, at only the
larger centers. This decision of Mr. Bryan
was approved, but he will be open to fill
a few date In New York, New Jersey and
other Eastern States, where it Is believed
ho has a fighting chance to carry.
Stevenson Arrives.
Adlal E. Stevxnson came In this morning
from the Minnesota summer resort, whero
h had expected to spend the summer. Ho
was given a tremendous ovation at the de
pot and was followed to his hotel, where a
speech w wrested from him. Mr. Bryan
and his distinguished visitors, eever! uni
formed cluba and a blUfcs band, went down
to meet Mr. Stevenson
The nominees clasped hands very cordially
for the first time since they became nomi
nees. Each wanted to know how the other
was, tut neither waited for a reply. Mr
Stevenson was brought out on the platform
of the car. where he held an impromptu re
ception. Then he was escorted to the depot
platform, and some ODe yelled:
"Three cheers for the next President and
Vice President of the United States."
Mr. Bryan smiled expansively. Mr. Steven
son beamed his thanks.
The vigorous Mr. Martin made a path
through the fast-augmenting crowd, and
down this the nominees and the Reception
Committee passed, amid the huzzas of the
crowd. The band men came hurrying up
and bad Jst time to blaro out "Dixie" be
fore they reached the carriages. The band
played "Dixie" ence more when the recep
tion was held at the hotel, and at the con
clusion of It played "Dixie" again, along
with that classic. "Hot Time."
Escorted to' the Hotel.
Mr. Bryan. Mr. Stevenon, Mr. Towne and
Governor Poynter occupied the lint carriage-
Messrs. Campau. Jones, Johnson.
Stone and Williams, the second Messrs.
Hall. Thompson. Tlbbets and Abbott the
third, while others In the long line were oc
cupied by newspaper correspondents and
citizens. All along the route to the hotel
the streets were lined.
jjr Stevenson's first act upon arriving at
the hotel was to Inscribe upon the register
In modest characters the name. "Adlal E.
Stevenson. Bloomlngton, 111."
By this time the crowd had come surging
Into the hotel, and Mr. Stevenson was being
Introduced right and left. Mr. Martin had
been bustling about In his peculiarly ener
getic way, and finally secured a place upon
the stairway, where he stationed both Mr.
Br) an and Mr. Stevenson. Then he hustled
out and got the crowd Into line, and several
hundred shook hands with the nominees.
Meanwhile the band was plaing and the
crowd was cheering. At the conclusion of
the reception the gentlemen started hur
riedly up &e stairway. But the crowd cut
off their escape oy cries oi -speecn,
"Speecn."
Mr. Stevenson shook his head deprecatlng
ly, but the Irrepressible Mr. Martin had
him by the arm In a jiffy and led him down
the stairway with Mr. Bryan.
Stevenson and llrynn Speak.
Two or three thousand persons gathered
about the hotel, and as Mr. Bryan acd
Mr Stevenson alighted, a loir of cheers
went up 1 welcome. "Stevenson, speech,
speech." shouted the crowd, and Mr. Ste
venson, smiling and bowing, mounted the
steps leading to the rotunda.
"I can onlr say to you. fellow-citizens,"
he said, "that I thank you for this cor
dial welcome. I am too modest a man to
make the first speech when I stand In the
presence of the next President, At some
future time I will do mjself the honor to
address the Bryan men. which means the
Democrats, Populists and Free Silver Re
publicans, all the elements In opposition to
the Republican party. I thank you for this
honor."
Mr. Bryan and Mr. Stevenson standing
tcrether then shook hands with several
hundred people, who passed in line rapidly
before them. But as thvy turned to go
upstairs to where the Democratic Confer
ence Committee was to meet, the crowd
shouted for Bryan- Mr- Hryan shook his
head, but the ciowd Insisted. "1 am glad
s-o many have turned out on short notice
to greet Mr. Stevtnson." said Mr. Bryan.
"I vant him to feel that when he comrs to
Nebraska, he comes among friends. (Shouts
of He 1st") Ar.d when he goes back to II
llno.s to help us carry Illinois. I want him
to tell them thtre Is no doubt of Nebraska."
Mr. Bryan was cluered as he concluded.
Then shouts went up for Towno. Mr.
Towne was not pre-ent. and former Gov
ernor Stone of Mls-ouri spoke briefly.
When he had concluded, however, the
shouting for Towne was renewed, and
finally Mr. Towne appeared.
"It is a great pleasure for me to receive
this wtlcome," said Mr. Towne. "But I am
perfectly well aware that It is because of
the pnnclrles I represent and that you all
believe In. There never was a period In
the history of our country when such a
crisis was Impending as at the present
time. And I propose from now on to give
all the power I pos-ess to the advocacy of
lb principles our grand leader represent,"
George Fred WUUams of Massachusetts
was then introduced by Mr. Bryn and
jpoke briefly. "O clone" Davis of Texas
followed Mr. WlUiams, and finally, la re
soonse to repeated calls. Senator Jones
came out of the cor.fertnce-room and ad
drerted the crowd. This flnishtd the speech
making, and shortly afterwards, the mem
bers of the Conference Committee with
Mr. Bryan. Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Towne
went Into a conference.

FOR BRYAN AND STEVENSON.
Secretary of Anti-Imperialist
League on the Issue.
ItETUnUC SPECIAL.
New York. July 9. "I believe that the
antl-lmptrlallst conference to bo held at
Indianapolis on August 15 will Indors Bry
an and Stevenson," said Secretary E. M.
Ordway of the Anti-Imperlallst League to
day. "Whatever It may do. I shall certainly
most heartily support the Kansas City
ticket. It Feems to me that the Democratic
National Convention acted very wisely In
declaring antl-lmx-erialiam the paramount
Issue of tho campaign for 10. The most
effective way of rebuking the McKinley ad
ministration's attempt to transform this
Republic Into an empire is to vote straight
for the Democratic presidential nominee."

Pittsburg, Pa.. July S -Colonel J. M. Guf-

Pennsylvania's Democracy, who returned
frcm the Kansas City Convention to-day,
says:
"It was the rreatest convention ever as
sembled and has given us a fin ticket and
platform that all the Democrats in the
country can support.
"In this campaign It Is cot a Question
of finance, but of tho preservation of the
Republic itself. Unless we maintain the Re
public as It stands to-day under the Const!
tutlon the people would have no voice In
monetary affairs or in anything else.
"The duty of Democrats Is ciearlv defined
If we cannot succeed with this platform.
and with Bryan ana otevenson as candi
dates it will plainly show that the American
people no longer want a democracy but are
in fav or of an empire."
RICHARDSON'S EXPLANATION.
Why 1G to 1, Though Not the Is
sue, Was Mentioned.
Washington, July 9. The Post to-morrow
will print an Interview with Representa
tive Richardson of Tennessee, who was
permanent chairman of the Democratic
Convention at Kansas City. In which he
says, regarding the Democratic platform:
"Tho controlling rea-son for using tho
phrase 1C to 1' In the platform was be
cause some thought that while free silver
was not the lsnue of this year, yet were It
omitted the very fact of the omission
would give It more prominence und possibly
cause it to be di-cussed more than If It
were simply repeated In the platform. The
argument was that If it was left out of
the platform It would be an Isaue. but If
it were put Into the platform It ou!d be
superseded by the great Issue cf 'imperial
ism." , ,
"Will the platform command the support
of those who. four years ago, broke away
from the Democratic party!" Mr. Richard
son was asked. ,.,..
"I have been gratified, he answered, "to
see that the nominees and the platform
have met with so great favor with the
Eastern press. A few have criticised, but
it is only a few. and the great bulk of the
Democratic press Is once more In line with
the pirty With this unanimity I feel quite
sure that we enn carry enough of the East
ern and Middle States to win the election."
Mr. Richardson plans to remain In Wash

PECULIAR AFFLICTION.
Malady Almost Wipes Out a Jop
lin Family.
RTPTBIJC SPECIAL.
Jopltn. Mo.. July 9. Three children of
Gilbert Warner's family have died under
peculiar circumstances. About two weeks
ago the Warners came to Joplln and lived
in a tent in the suburb. The family con
sisted of Gilbert, his wife and Ave chil
dren. In the most destitut circumstances.
About a week ago the family all became 111.
Their symptoms were the same loss of ap
petite, nausea, swelling of the stomach and
extremities. Too poor to get a doctor, they
endured their agony until last Saturday,
when one of the children died. The same
day a neighbor's child di-d of the same
malady. This morning another of the War
ner children, a little girl, died in such ag
ony that In her spasms she bit off her
tongue and one of her fingers. This even
ing another Warner child died, and the fa
ther, mother and the other two children
are dangerously ill. In every case the child
went Into spasms before death. The stom
ach would swell to almost double its nat
ural size, and the children all died in In
tense agony. ,
Tho Warners drank water out of a barrel
which they kept near their tent. They
think the barrel has betn poisoned, for the
neighbor's child that drank water from
that barrel sickened and died just as the
Warner children had. Warner washed th
barrel good when he became suspicious, but
his family kept growms worse Just the
same.
Some doctors think It Is a cas of poison
by means of "rough on rats." The symp
toms were all slmilar.
