NEW YORK , Jan. 10. Tom Sharkey , the
American sailor , stands as the only heavy
weight In line for championship honors and
the title now held by Bob rltzslmmons. He
whipped Kid McCoy good and hard In the
tenth round of what wns to tiave been a
twenty-round battle , and by doing so the
Irish-American pugilist forged hla way so
positively and undeniably to the front rank
that Fltzslmmons muat now consider the
sailor-pugilist's claim without delay.
Sharkey tonight was a revelation to thoao
who saw him a couple of years ngo. His
ring work nnd generalship are so vastly su
perior to tila exhibitions when he llrst cnmo
to the east as a flfetiter that the Improve
ment Is almost Incredible. Great bunches
of muscle , with unlimited confidence and a
cool head , are the qualifications which have
enabled Sharkey to fight his way to the
front rank of heavyweight pugilists , and
no one , not oven McCoy , who suffered defeat
at nls hands tonight denies the full meas
ure of pralso that Is due to Hie Irlilimnn.
McCoy's marvelous footwork and that long
loft Jab with which he has put so many
of his opponents to sleep are two factors
In his makeup that must always appeal to
lovers of the flstio art. Ho used every
artlflco known to the advanced school of
pugilism in 1iis contest tonight , and Ills de
feat must not be attributed to any lack
of close- study on his part of every trick
in tbo boxing game. Many of his friends
feel tonight that ho ought to have gone
up against smaller game than Sharkey.
When McCoy sent Sharkey twice to the
floor In the third round tonight no one
doubted the Kid's ability to hit hard , nnd
many thought ho had Sharkey at his mercy.
This Idea was soon dispelled when the Irish
man began to get to his man.
At 10:23 : both men entered the ring. After
the preliminary bouts had been decided the
betting was 100 to 60 In favor of McCoy.
A few minutes later the betting changed
to even money.
McCoy's seconds were Doc Pane , Con
Rellly , Frank I > no. Timekeeper , Nate Kenton -
ton of Buffalo. Tom's seconds were Tom
O'Rourko , Tommy Ryan of Syracuse , George
Dlxon and Jack Douguerty. Timekeeper ,
Prof. Jim Do Forrest. Sharkey's weight
was 172 and McCoy's 15S pounds. McCoy
wore white running trunks with a belt of
tbo stars and stripes. Tom wore green
trunks with a belt of American colors. They
shook hands at 10:40 : o'clock.
UotiillM of tlic Itont.
Round One They Vlddled. McCoy tried a
left for the wind , but missed , Tom storing
a left over ths kldno > s. Both were curoful.
McCoy tried a left hook for the head , land
ing lightly. Tom upper-cut with a right on
the chest. McCoy made a half circle of the
ring and then caught on the stomach.
Bhurkuy did not replv. McCoy sent left to
ptomnch nnd brought It up to the fncc.
Blmrkey hooked n light right to the libs.
Doth men vvcro sparring nt the gong. Mc
Coy's round.
Itound Two McCoy side-stepped to the
left for a half circle of the ring and led lila
left , landing lightly on the face. Tom
stepped back nnd McCoy ran close to him ,
McCoy's reaches for his man were futile ,
but he cnught Tom on the ropes nnd caught
a light left on the nose. Tom cnmo to the
center of the ring nml tried left and right
without effect , nnd ngnln the Kid sent kft
lightly to the fnce. McCoy continually kept
side-stepping nnd evaded Tom's attempt ?
for a left hook on swing cleverly. McCoy
put a light left on Tom s face whin neat
the ropes on the west end of the ring nnd
Bharkey sent hard left hook to ribs just us
the gong sounded.
Round Three Tom tried to force matter *
end McCoy nt closj quarters sent a left tc
the ear nnd duclced nw&y from a left
swing. Each sent lefts to the head at close
quarters with little effect and McCoy's fool
work puzzled Tom , who could not land un
til McCoy stopped after getting a left or
the breast. Tom then wnt his left to the
neck nnd McCoy Jabbed n hard left on the
nose. This seemed to annoy Tom , who was
unused to such quick footwork. McCoy hli
his opponent with another quick jnb on tin
nose. Twice around the ring McCoy sidestepped -
stepped nnd nt ench step forced his left Jab
landing lightly. Suddenly the kid Htooc
rigid nnd sent his right to the fnce , repent
ing the blow within two seconds to hari
that Tom fell to the floor. Tom Jumped in
llko n rubber ball rebounding nnd again h (
fell to the lloor. The bell found them spar
ring.
McCoy Hit * Quick root.
Round Tour McCoy's footwork wns mar
-\elous. He cut out the puce and Sharkej
could not reach him through the Kill
< lover side-stepping. Once in n while Ale
Coy would stop nnd send that long left ti
the body or bend. Tom tried nil joiu o
dodges to bring his man TO him , but th <
( kid sidestepped nil the time nnd U'om'i
uwlngs found the air. Sharkey rushed nm
tried for the body , but the Kid sldesteppec
agnln and sent two hard lefts to the face
These blows stung Tom , but the lattoi
stuck his tongue out , ns much as to say
"Those don't count. Hit heavier. "
Round Five McCoy rushed across thi
ifing nnd the men clinched in S > iarke > 'i
corner. Sharkey tried left and rlgh
swings , but the Kid dodged cleverly. Ton
tried left and right again , bu' the Kit
dodged away from him. Tom crossed tin
ring and caught McCoy In the neutral cor
ner , sending left to the stomach and rlgh
on the ear. McCoy countered heavily wltl
right on the head. Tom Kept rushing In
uflectually nnd once ho cuught McCoy at
the ropes and tried to land a left hook , bu
McCoy rebounded from the ropes like i
rubber ball and Tom sent his left to thi
right ribs , only landing n glancing blow
Both men were fresh at the end of thi
round.
Round Six Sharkey on the nggresslve
McCoy very wary and using his feet to ad
vantage. Tom cnught him side-stepping
Inndlng a left hook low on the body ni.i
another on the ribs close to the heart. Mc
Coy Jabbed left to fnce nml body , bu
failed to dodge a left hook from Tom
which caught him on the neck under th
car. Tom kept on the aggressive am
caught McCoy on the rones without nln
ing anything. Tom caught McCoy in th
corner and gave him two lefts In the face
McCoy Jumped to the middle of therlni
nnd side-stepped , but Tom hooked his lef
and sent his right ncross to the head , bu
they vvcro glancing blows. At this titng
of the game there was betting of { 500 cvci
that Tom would knock McCoy out.

WITNESSES TELL OF THREATS
Turning Point 1 * Ileaebcd In Gnr-
rln tou Trial at Blonx Fall *
Denial of William Wet.
SIOUX FALLS , S. D. , Jon. 10. ( Special
Telegram. ) Today has been the turning
point in the trial of James A. Garrlngton
for the murder of Alfred Erlckson. As
soon aa court convened today State's At
torney Bates , for the prosecution , rested
his case and D. R. Bailey , for the defense ,
began the Introduction ot evidence.
The chief aim of the defense seems to
bo to fasten the crime on William West , a
local character , whose daughter the mur
dered man had seduced , and thus becloud
the caie as much aa possible.
Several witnesses testified to hearing
threats made by West against Erickson ,
'but ' most of them were some tlmo prior to
the murder. It 1 * the belief of some persona
who have hoard all the testimony thus far
that either Garrlngton or West committed
the crime and therefore an unusual stir
wai created in the court room when West
hlmielt was called to the witness stand.
Lata this afternoon , on rebuttal , he swore
positively that he was not within a block ol
Garrlngton's shanty when the murder waa
committed ; that he did not know of Erlck-
son's return to Sioux Falls until two hours
after the murder waa discovered , and thai
he did not know Erlckson waa killed untl
about 11 o'clock the next forenoon. Weal
is an Englishman and hla prompt and posi
tive manner of answering questions made
a decidedly good impression.
Tbo attorney for the defense is an experi
at cross-examination , but West waa toe
much for him and did not contradict him
self in any particular. Cross-examination
of West was not concluded when court ad
journed until tomorrow.

ANXIOUS TO AVOID ANY COLLISION.
American TroopA Able to Care ( or
TUem * lr If One Conies.
WASHINGTON.-'Jan. 10. Although noth
ing of an alarming nature baa been re
ceived from Hello , there is no doubt that
members of the administration view the
situation as somewhat serious and are
anxiously awaiting further news. No ap
prehension , however , is felt as to the result
of any collision which might take place be.
tween United States forces now on the island
and the natives , but the president Is very
anxious to avoid any encounter whatever.
He feels certain that if the natives can bs
made to understand that this government
comes to them in a most friendly and help ,
ful spirit there will bo no further trouble
and so he has given instructions to Gen
eral Miller that the utmost patience must
be exercised and every reasonable request
granted in order to avoid an open rupture.
Members of the administration express the
opinion that the delay in the ratification oi
the treaty of peace has contributed not a
little to the belligerent spirit shown by the
natives and as soon as that boa been disposed
of Jt is believed that the recalcitrant element -
ment will accept it as a notice that tbo
sovereignty of the islands has passed to the
United States and that no opposition tc
Us formal possession will be tolerated.
At the cabinet meeting today the situa >
tlon in the Philippines was gone over and
some tlmo was given to questions ot ad
ministration in Cuba.

ADVISED TO FIGHT TUB TIIDATY
Andrew Carnegie Object * to Throw
Inw Awiiy Any Advuntnice.
WASHINGTON , Jan. 10. Andrew Carne
glo was an Interested listener today to Sen'
ator Mason's speech. He expressed the opln
ion that the ratification of tbo treaty mlgh
be defeated and said that it certainly wouli
bo If Mr. Morgan would come out In oppo
sltion to it. "If he will only advise hi ;
followers to fight in the pass and not In thi
open , " ho said , "the treaty Is certain o
defeat. All that I hear indicates the In
crease of the opposition ranks and I an
quite encouraged to believe the ratlQcatloi
of the treaty can bo defeated. Accordlni
to my opinion this Is the opportune time fo
those who oppose expansion to do the !
work. Only a one-third vote Is required t
defeat the treaty , whereas with the treat ;
ratified , we will have to secure a majorlt ;
to make our views effective. Hence , I sa ;
that this is the time for Mr. Bryan am
other antl-oxpanslonlsts to make their fight
Hereafter wo will not enjoy tbo advantag
over our opponents that wo now do , havlni
then to meet them in the open field. "

STOIIIUS ABOUT PUEACIIDnS.
Two country clergymen had agreed to ex
change pulpits on a certain date , relates the
Syracuse Standard. One of them mndo the
following solemn announcement to his con.
gregatlon on the Sabbath previous to the
event : "My dear brethren and sisters , 1
have the pleasure of elating that on next
Sunday morning Rev. Zacharlah B. Day will
preach for you. Let ua now sing two verse *
of hymn No. 489 , 'That Awful Day Will
Surely Come. ' " And it took him some
tlmo to discover why the congregation
smiled.
"An Italian prelate who believes himself
a master of the English language , " says a
correspondent ot an English paper , "waa
while an honored guest at a famous college
asked to preach at the high moss on Sunday.
His discourse was diversified by neologisms
that kept our attention alive , if they some
times disordered our gravity , which finally
collapsed under the proposition ; 'There are ,
my brethren , three enemies against whom ,
all our long life , wo are bound to fight
the Devil , the World and ( for a moment
ho pondered came ) 'the Meat. ' "
The London Chronicle tells this story of
Father Stanton , the well known London
ritualist : "Chancing to enter into conversa
tion with a visitor to St. Alban's , Holborn ,
who had attended the service for the first
time , Mr. Stanton asked him what ho
thought of the service. The stranger replied
that ho liked it all very well except the In
cense , to the use of which he strongly ob
jected. 'I am very sorry for you , my friend , '
said Mr , Stanton. The other not unnat
urally asked , 'Why ? ' 'Well , you see , ' said
Mr. Stanton , 'there ore only two stinks In
the next world incense and brimstone
and you'll have to choose between them1 ! "
Dr. Pakenham-Walsh , who recently re
signed the blihoprlc ot Ossory , is celebrated
alike for his piety and his wit. There Is a
Btory told of how he proposed to his wife.
Ho was at a dinner party and was seated
besldo the woman of his choice. In the
course of the dinner ho found that he had
been helped to the "wishing bone , " and , ns
Is often the custom at country houses , he
pulled for the wish with his neighbor. The
llttlo V-shaped bone was broken and the
bishop , having secured the "wish , "
whispered to his fair companion , as ho laid
down his part of the bone : "Will > ou lay
your bonea with my bones ? " She blushlngly
whispered an assent and after dinner the en
gagement was announced.

PITTSnuiia , , Jan. 10. The bitter vvran-
glo o\er the appointment of the cre
dentials committee , which occupied the
entire session of the national con\entlon of
the United Mlno Workers > esterdny , was
renewed upon the reopening of the couven-
tloii today. Charges of unfairness were
freely mndo by the nntl-admlnlstratton fac
tions nnd these accusations were promptly
denied by President Uatchford , Acting pres
ident Mitchell and Secretary-Treasurer
Pearce. When the session was called to
order Chairman Kcennn of the committee
on credentials reported that all the dele
gates entitled to representation had boon
seated and that n number tuid been rejected
because the locals had not fully compiled
with the constitution. Before the report
could be adopted , ho\ve\er , ex-President
McBrlde created surprise by announcing
that the Ohio delegation had decided to
withdraw all candidates for office from that
state and that they would refuse to servo
on any committees until a thorough Inves
tigation has been made.
This \vas done , ho said , because the
Ohloans saw that the outsiders were seek
ing to delay matters In crdcr to sccuro the
election of their own candidates.
This reopened the discussion and Patrick
Dolan , Pennsjhanla's candidate for presi
dent , said that ho was willing to withdraw
his name from the list of candidates and
leave a clear field to the book pndders.
T. L. Louis of Ohio said tliat yesterday
ho wns looked upon as n candidate. Today
ho was a delegate , lie alleged that the na
tional officers had used their Influence In
favor of certain candidates for ofllco and that
the funds of the miners had been used for
electioneering purposes. Ho said ho would
make these charges In writing nnd was pre
pared to prove all his allegations.
Acting President Mitchell said the charges
were made without proofs and denied that
the organization had been used In hU be
half. The charges , ho said , were unmanly.
Ho was followed President Hjan of
Illinois , who caused some excitement by
offering to donate J100 to the organization If
the charges were proven.
Dolan said ho obtained his Information
from Edward McKay nt Columbus before
the convention last year.
The report of the credentials committee
was then taken up. It showed 027 dele-
gataes , divided as follows : Pennsylvania ,
76 ; Illinois , 243 ; Ohio , 142 ; Indiana , OS ; In
dlan Territory , 9 ; Arkansas , 10 ; Kansas ,
10 ; Michigan , 1 ; West Virginia , C ; Ten
nessee , 4 ; Kentucky , 19 ; Iowa , 20 ; Alabama ,
20.
Pleas for harmony then followed , and
pending the adoption of the credentials re
port a committee of Investigation composed
of one delegate from each district was elec
ted to ex n nil no the books nnd reports of
the convention. A recess wns then taken.
