said :
"Recruiting the Doer army ban been going
on In Nebraska for some time. I have been
acitiacd of being connected with It , but the
statement Is not founded on fact. H Is into
that 1 was oflcred n commission In the Doer
army. If I would accept It. Of course 1 re-
( used.
"The fact Is that there has been consider
able sentiment aroused over thu state In
behalf of the Doers and a movement has
been starled to raise troor to aaslst them
In their Ftrugglo , but the organization has
not assumed anything like regimental pro
portions. Several dozen Nebraska men have
Dignified their willingness and their dcnlro

people will doubllcks go from this state. It

one who will tight for the Doers can got

3as been going on for some lime. John G.

stood In line nt the White House gate today ,
walling to pay their respects to the president
of the United States , after the brilliant re
ception which ushered In the Now Year and
marked the opening of the social season In
Washington ,
There have been larger crowds In the past
at the White Hotisa New Year gatherings ,
but few functions of the sort have been moro
brilliant and In none have the crowds been
bcticr handled , with loss confusion or lees
of feminine heartacluu and resentments for
dainty toilets disarrayed In tl f crush.
Ileglnntug promptly at 11 a. in. the cere
mony was concluded nt 1:15 : , at which tlmo
3,331 guests passed down the line.
Mrs. McKlnley was present In spite of her
feeble health. She remained In the blue
parlor only durlnc the strictly olllcial tec-
lion of the program , retiring then as had
been provlously arranged. With the flush
of excitement on her usually pale face slio
looked bright and happy as she led the
cabinet procession down the corridor with
the president to Ihc blue room.
The brilliant lights reflected from the
crystal chandeliers overhead , the twinkle at
tiny electric globes through the heavy
draperies of smllax and foliage plants that
lined the carpeted corrldcr. made an ex
cellent stage setting for the olllcial pro
cession as It moved down the stairs and
through to the blue parlor , nere the recelv- |
lug party wrfs to take Its stand.
Mrs. McKlnley bowed anil 'smiled to the
little crowd of favored spectators who filled
the end of the corridor to witness thla open
Ing act of the clay's ceremonies. As she
turned Into the blue room she kissed the
tlpsi of her white-gloved lingers to some of
the children who waved their hands to her
from a point of vantage near the door.

fonn.s was brilliant. The Turkish fez , '
gilded orders of continental powers , the fur- '
trimmed tunics and high , polished boots of
the Russians ; the queer , sago green , gold-
encrusted uniforms of Ihc Japanese and the
ermlt'e trimmed silken robes cf the Korean ?
and the Chinese all combined to form a '
picture of unusual brilliancy. j
Following these , the American olllclals , In- ;
eluding judges of the supreme court , appel '

lloforo Context ,
NEW YOUK. Jan. 1. Kid McCay again
placed himself in the championship class by
defeating Poier Mtihor In n brisk , well-
fought battle of five rounds before the Coney
Island Athletic club this afternoon. The
light was scheduled to last twenty-live
rounds and the ptirso was to have been ,
| ( $20,000 , but the attendance wna not as I
largo as had been expected and before the '
I
' light was ) begun the principal * agreed that
j the winner should receive iho gross gate i
] iccolpts. I
The battle was hard fought from start to |
llnlah , but McCoy was far the cleverer limn ,
In ring ladles , doJglng , sldo-BicppIng and i
hilling powers. Ho showed himself to bo |
a good ling general , ever watching for an
opening and never falling to take advantage
i of one. Maher , although credited with being
I a heavy hitler , did not get In many effect
ive blows. Hl footwork was poor and at
times ho did not appear to have perfect cou-
I tiol of himself.
i When the men entered the ring and
stripped for Iho b.illlo both Icokcd to bo In
perfect condition itul they were greeted
with tumultuous applause. Under Marquis
of Quccnsbcrry rules , new gloves , provided
by the club , were Imuded to Iho referee and
he In turn gave them lo the boxers' sec
onds. Muhor donned his quickly , but McCoy
.said the gloves did not lit him and stub
bornly refused to wear them. Ho wanted to
wear an old pair , but the referee WIIH obdurate -
durato and .McCoy gave In.
It-fo.v ABUI-CNSOI- ( lie Stiu-t.
.McCoy was the aggressor In the start-oft' ,
forcing Maher to break ground , lie out
pointed his opponent In every touiid but the
fourth and was clearly the holler man.
McCoy assumed the aggressive In the llflh
and last round , but I'eter Kparrcd carefully.
The Irishman soon began forcing and feinted
the Kid Into a left which landed lightly
on the wind. Then Maher forced McCoy into
a neutral cornur , planting a tcrrlllc left on
thu farL. which Jaired McCoy's head. McCoy
aide-stepped lu nn unuaiial direction und
Peter trlod another left which fell short.
In a iiilxup which followed honors were
about even , but McCoy was cautioned by the
referee for holding. Maher outpointed the
Kid by 50 per cent In this round , sending
rights and lefts to the head , while the Kid
retaliated with lefts on the wind. Toward
Ihc close of the lound Muhor was cautioned
for holding and , coming from a breakaway ,
ho sent a left hook to McCoy's face which
did the Kid no cood.
At this stage of the- game Mailer's friends
became very confident that the .Irishman !
would get thu better of the Hooslcr hid. but I
McCoy had a great deal more left In him |
than these people bargained for. j
He waited for the big fellow and tapped '
him with a left lightly In the faec , all the '
tkno shifting to the left side. Then both I
handed lefls lo the head. 1'otor sent a hard
left to the face , which Uie Kid countered. ,
Then he sent n left to Iho throat and tried
to cross with his right , but the Kid ducked |
and then McCoy landed Itfl and right on |
the Jaw. I'eter wavered and McCoy sent j
another right which fell a bit short a'.id ,
then , dropping his left to the body , tried a
right swing and , as Peter side-stepped , the ,
Kid met him with a full swinging left which
landed on the ptlnt of the Jaw and the |
Irishman went down , resting on his right
elbow , ntid was counted out in this posi
tion.
C'lcilMCNl KlKK-lvOlll ICVIMSlll > .
It was a terrible blow and , landing right I
on the mark , an ox could scarcely have :
withstood Its force. It was the cleanest j
knockout ever seen In a ring light and , while ]
some people were unkind enough to say that
Maher could have gotlen up again , those
who were nearest lo the fighters and saw
the force of the blow were of the opinion
that Sullivan in his palmiest days could !
not have withstood 11. j
Probably In the hlf'tory of ring fights in ,
this vicinity there has never been such a
quick change In the bettitig as that which
occurred during Ihe two hours preceding
the light. For some days past Maher has
i been the favorite , as good as 100 to CO being
bet nn his chances. One hundred to seventy
on Maher was the ruling price when the club
house doors opened this afternoon and In the
different sporting centers this price was
maintained until within an hour of the bf-
glnn.ag of the contest. Then a peculiar
I condition of affalrn occurred and , for no
I apparent rcaron. Maher stock was beared ,
I whllo the Kid's was bulled , anil when Iho
men got Into the ring their positions In the
betting market were reversed , with the Kid
the favorite.

J. C. Lindsay won the Troup meslnl In the

modal. They wereJ. . C. Lindsay , ( loorge
Anderson , P. L. Korgan , J. W. Dodd , Robert
Melvln , U. E. Patrick , James llowto anil
Thomas Meldrnni.
From a climatic standpoint the day was
an Ideal one for ihc contoM. It was clear
and cold and the contestants were inflow
with onthuahiHrn. The Ice , howovir , was in
poor conilltlon und made the play exceedingly -
ingly dlllKult. The severe frosts of late
had' frozen the Ice HO hard that It had
cracked In numerous placeanil In this way
was badly biased. It was Impossible for the
players complotPly to overcome this bias
ami consequently the scores were cxi op
tionally low. The contest was on the point ,
svstom and each contestant exerted In
dividual effort , playing Independently from
all the others. At the end of the conlc. t
Messrs. Kliulnay and Korean were , tlwl with
S points each. All the others withdrew and
these two continued tingame. . In the first
olid enoh mallo - points and played until the
fourth additional end. In tbis Umfeay
scored 5 points and Korean " The foi nier
was declared the winner of the medal with
ii total of 15 iiolnts to his credit. AH an In
dication of the small score In thlsi contest Ii
may tie mentioned that 72 points are 1103-
