The Jack WllkM-IInrry Ollmoro n h
cnmoofl at Ilium's hall , South Omaha lai
night In the presence of several huudrei
spectators.
It took Wllkcs , much to tbo surprise of tin
bulk of tbo crowd , exactly four minutes ti
waft the Canadian into a otuto of sonino
I en co.
co.Wllkcs was esquired by .lack Davis nm
Pat O'Hoarn ' , whllo Ollmoro was looked nftei
by Tommy White.
Cuutaln James Ferguson of Kansas Cltj
was the rofcreo and filled the position will )
much eclat.
The men entered the ring at fifteen min
utes of 10 , and ton minutes later time was
called.Vhcn the two men faced each otbei
the disparity In their weight midsize wa-
not so great as ono would hav.i supposed.
Wllkes had the advantage of height and
reach , ns well as avoirdupois , nnd was In
great fighting fig , so careful had boon his
preparation under Davis1 fostering care
GHmoro was a tritlo flabby , yet In fine condi
tion.
tion.Tho first round was a walk around , the
inen sparring guardedly , with the ovldenl
purpose of testing each others worth. liul
two leads wcro made , ono by each , and boti
falling short.
At the call of time for the second round ,
Davis said to Jack as ho left his chair.
"Go got him ! "
And Jack did go and DO cot him.
After a few seconds of frantic Jobbing , Oil
more caught Wllkes a stinging rlght-hnndoi
over the loft eye , abrazlng the skin anil
causing the cochineal to oxudo.
First blood for the Canuck.
But that was nil ho got. for the next second
end , smash ! It was Wilkes' dexter duke
colliding with Harry's forehead , splitting It
open as cleanly ns if ho bad been slashed
with a razor. A perpendicular gash an inch
long In tbo exact center of the forehead w.ii
tbo result , and from this the blood gushed
copiously , besmearing Gllmoro's face and
chest In a frightful way. Then Wllkoi
placed tils loft good and solidly In Gllmoro's
wind , and again his right made a vicious
swoop and landing on tbo vulnerable portion
of Harry's neck ho went down like a log.
The roculatlon ten seconds were tolled off ,
nnd Gllmoro was outl Ills seconds then
hastily carried him to his chair , and by
Irrquont dashes of cold water bo was ro-
vived.
It was n quick flt'ht , but a good one , and
this morning Wilkes is the possessor ol
about STiOO which Harry GHmoro confidently
expected to tote back to Chicago.

Keollnjj DevolopiMl at u Hrurot Moot-
lnIm t Night \\lll Meet at tlio
Wtir.tH Kirly Tomorrow
.Morning.
The striking smelter employes nro by no
means unanimous on tlio question of sottllnp
tin ) existing diniculty , ni was manifested at
lust evening's ' meeting nt National Imll , lit
Thirteenth and Williams streets.
Several changes were inado In the pro-
pi-ammo us or ( dually announced. It had
been intended to hold the mooting In Met/ '
Imll as heretofore , but in that Is on the
ground floor the objection of some of the
leaders led to tlio e'.hungo nbovo noted so as
to secure sooreov and prevent any outsiders
from obtaining Information at tbo windows.
H hnd also boon announced that a public
mooting would llrst bo held , to bo followed
by a secret session of the smelter employes ,
but the public meeting ivns ilona away with
and tlio doorkeepers tniulo u pretense of
nllowlni : noiii' but strikers to enter the place ,
but In this they wore not extraordinarily suc
cessful , ns several outsider * managed to slip
past.
Difl'oront Opinion * ICxI.stod.
Addresses were made by several speakers ,
among them being .lumen Bacon and John
Welsh. The latter gentleman road the re
port of .Thursday's conference with Messrs.
Barton and Nash from Tin : HKI : of Friday
morning. It was evident from the time
the mooting opened that there was
a dlftcronco of opinion among the men ,
como being in favor of holding out until tbo
company granted eight hours worn for every
man , but tbo majority \vcro strongly In favor
of going back to work. Considerable fooling
was manifested , and after the mooting was
over there wore several vorv warm discus
sions indulged in ou the street bolwo.cn the
two factions.
Tlio men who favored going back com
plained bitterly of the policy of the leaders ,
whom they accused of refusing to allow any
of the men to ho heard , who advocated an
Immediate return.
One of the men who came out of the mootIng -
Ing before it was over , declared that the
strikers had agreed not to go back
until . eight hours were granted for
each and every man , and that a
schedule of prices had been formulated as
follows : Furnacomen , ? ) ; tappers , pot haul
ers , roaster tenders , kottlomon and all refin
ery men , 31.73 , and roustabouts $ l.i50. Ho
was sure that the company would soon have
to give in , as it had 500 cars of ere sidetracked
at various stations between hero and Denver
and that the destination bait boon erased seas
as to leave no trace that they were on route
to those works. lie Insisted that the men
could stay out until sprinir if necessary and
six weeks without unv inconvonlouco. Ho
was , in fact , one of the most rabid of the
men , and said they would listen to nothing
but acquiescence to their terms.
\ \ nut to Go to Work.
A very general questioning of others of the
men elicited information of a very different
nature. Il is believed that fully SO per cent
of the man are not only ready but anxious to
return to work , and scores of them insist
that they are going back. Many of thorn ex
pressed a strong dcsiro to retuni to their
places Monday morning , and so decided was
this feeling tliat oven the leaders , who fought
against It with all the force nt their com
mand , wore compelled to recognize it. In
deed , so manifest was it that hundreds of the
men would report at the smelter Monday
morning , that just before adjournment Bacon
announced that tlio men would next
meet at tlio smelter gates nt Iii0 : :
o'clock Monday morning , to then and tbcro
submit another proposition to Mr. Uarton.
It Doomed as if this action was all that hold
the men together , as thov had aoparently
made up tneir mmas to tnVow tnoir loaders
overboard if they longer stood in tbo way of
their returning to work.
Hoard on the Outside.
The business men on South Thirteenth
street , in the vicinity where most of the
smelter employes reside , state without excep
tion that the general snntimont of the men Is
to get back \o work. One merchant said that
after careful inqnlry among thorn ho had
boon Informed that two of the leaders were
still endeavoring to induce the minority to
hold out.
The report was current on the street In the
vicinity of the hall that last night's mooting
was called for the purpose of inducing the
men to contribute $1 each to sot Bacon up in
business , inasmuch as Mr. Barton had re
fused to tnko him back. A relative of ono of
the men said that ho had previously heard
the project b'roached at a mooting wider the
Douglas street bridge.
The loaders who wore trying to hold the
men in line seemed very much afraid that
the general public would learn of the rapidly
spreading disaffection within their ranks ,
and when several of tho-io dissatisfied with
the policy of the loaders were forcibly ex
pressing their feeling on tbo sidewalk , onn of
these . men stopped up and commanded
them to "shut up. There's n Bii : : reporter
and all this stuff will got into the papers. "
The parties who are engineering mutters
for the agitators scorn fearful lost a settle
ment shall bo mado. and they see to it that ii
now committee is named each time. They
explain the action by saying that money is a
powerful incentive , and they profess lo bo-
llovo thai the members of the committee
would be bought up If tlio same ono was al
lowed to stand , and would sacrifice the cause
uf the men to feather their own nests.
Ono of the malcontents said that a com-
inittoo of live would meet Mr. Barton Mon-
luy and demand three eight hour shifts in
ill departments , but the calling of a general
nooting at the works at an early hour Imll-
: atos that the moro consorvrtlvo element is
ilowly , but surely , getting in its work.

NEW YOUK , Aug. 15. A Port-au-Prince ,
Ilayti , dispatch says thatn noisy and turbu
lent session of the chamber of deputies yes
terday was closed with a vote of censure
against the members of Hlppoljtu's cabinet
nnd was followed by tbo ministers handing
their resignations to the president. Such ex
citement has not been scon since the out
break of May SS and many parsons expect
that similar scenes of bloodshed , if not open
rebellion , will result from the proceedings of
tbo chamber of deputies.
The debate in tha chamber \vns a storm v
ono. Members of that body openly charged
tlio cabinet ministers with corruption and in-
capucitv , which caused ono of the noisiest
scones in tne chamber that anyone can re
member. The ministers were vigorously de
fended and their opponents as vigorously de
nounced , but the formal vote of censure for
incapacity and corruption was carried amidst
storms of cheers. No ministry could stand
against , such a vote. Its announcement was
followed by the handing of ttieir resignations
to President Ilippolyto , Tlio president Is
now busy with the formation of a now cabi
net.

the coals becuuso ho hud not prosecuted Mr.
Barton for compelling his men to violoto the
eight-hour law.
Attorney Mlnnehan spolio In behalf of Mr.
Mahonoy. Ho said the county uttornoy was
in the right in not proseeutlrg Mr. Barton.
Mr. Barton was the officer of tbo corpora
tion. Tlio corporation violated the law and
It would have been impossible to have ar
rested the corporation us it was an inunimuto
body.
Jacob Counsman said that If It had been
some poor devil u prosecution would have
been commenced too quick. Afterwards ho
said that bo would like to see any legislature
that would say ho could not woric moro than
eight hours. No man had n right to sny bow
many hours ho should work , nnd the sup
posed and so-culled legislature of last winter
was off lln base wnun It passed the law.
The committee was Instructed to continue
its labors und prosecute Mr. Barton or some
otbor violator of the law. A-
The $153.000 of Union Pacific bridge bonds
were discussed.
Mr. Schnakc said : "Wo wui.t to know
why tboso bonds were not paid , nnd wo also
want to know what will bo the best course to
secure their payment. " Ho said that the
voters hud not authorized the issue of the
now bonds , and ho feared tbcro would uo
troublo. The credit of Douglas county was
in danger. Thu last statement of the county
insunu asylum showed f''OD.lKK ) onhand. .
The commissioners should Issue warrants
for the amount of the bonds , pay them as far > .
as the funds would go and then lot the bill. X
anco of the warrants circulate among the *
pcoplo the same as greenbacks nnd bank
notes. Ho was afraid that If now bonds
wore Issued , when they became duo the
funds would bo in the same condition as now
nnd at the end of the term another set of
bonds would hnvo to be issued.
Jacob Counsman wanted to know where
the money went before he would favor now
bonds. No commissioner had any right to
transfer money from ono fund to another
The tax payers had paid the bonds over , and
the peopio should know what became of the
money , Some of the = ommsstonors ! hud said
that they did not know that tbo bonds were
duo. Such officers should be called upon lo
explain why on July 1 , theio was only $7OOU
in tlio treasury to pay n debt of $ l5S)0wlion ( ) ( )
there should have been double thnt amount.
Mr. Specht hlcitcd on the style adopted by
the county commissioners in disposing of the
the lots in Douglas addition. The lots hud
been sold , 200,000 was duo , and with n
county attorney nnd two assistants no
attempt had been made to collect n dollar ,
though the bales were made four years ago.
If the county would collect Its debts tboro
would bo monov to pay tbo bonds.
R C. Krlling thought thnt Mr. Specht bad
hit the nail on the head. Ho know thnt 1. Br
Iluscall bad boon paid $1,000 for something ,
bn never owned and on which bo had nO
clulin.
Mr. Schmifko insisted thnt tbo Fifth
warders were not on the way to the poor
farm , and that the question of bridge bonds
vvus the only ono to bo discussed.
A. Lockmcr wanted the bond business
iifteil. Tbo commissioners hud made several
itnioinnnls about the bonds. Tlio .statements
ivoro conflicting and a committee should go
: o tbo bottom of the whole nffulr.
Chairman Uuiloy appointed Jncob Couns-
iian , K. C. Krlllng nnd Auirnst Loelcnor ns
i committee to look Into the disposition of
ho old bond fund.
The gentlemen objected to serving , stating
.bat they would not Imvo the time to do the
vork.
Chairman Dally opined that if Stho moni
tors of the committee hnd the interests of
bo city nt. heart they would not rnfuso f.o
ict. This was a clincher , us It touched the
iridis of tbo three Fifth warders and they
ylil begin going through County Treasurer ,
Stiyiler's books tomorrow. The snmo coin-
nltteo will nlso Investigate the reason why
ho cases against the purchasers of lots In
Douglas addition have not been brought to
rial.
The next mooting to register kicks will beheld
held next , Friduy night , nt which time the
committee will attempt to report upon tbo
subjcts that they have to work upon.
