Whllo Itusala'H part In the proposal Is
regarded with editorial siiBplclon, It Is
generally recognUcd that (ho flight of tho
empress dowager and tho emperor renders
the situation extremely difficult and there
fore that It might he wiso to adopt the
JlunBo-Amerlrnn program as the solution
f I ho problem.
At tho samo tlmo a very strong feeling
U displayed In favor of h moro vlgoroua
lino of policy. Tho Dally Graphic says.
"The United Slates nro almost morbidly
onxlouB to wnsh their hands of tho Chinese
embirransment. This has long boon ap
parent. Hut It Is rather surprising to
bear that their anxiety is shared by Rus
sia. With tho possible exception of Ocr
ninny, thcro Is probably not nnothc'r power
that would seriously object to tho uvacu.v
tlon of I'ekln."
Tho Dally Mall observes: "Probably
Russia, with tho assistance of tho United
States and France, has hopes to dictate
to other powers a far eastern policy. In
suring tho accomplishment of Husalan de
signs, which would bo greatly facilitated
by tho acceptance of 1,1 Hung Chang as

to accept any Intermediary or to evacuate
Pokln. which would only bo Interpreted
as a sign of weakness."
Tlio Dally Kxprcso and tho Dally Chroni

on tho professions of 1,1 Hung Chang or of
tbo Chinese authorities.

Tho Standard says' "it is not easy to
overrate tho Importance of tho decision
of tho United Stntes. Tho desire of both
Wtshlngton and St. I'ctcrsburg to with
draw from Pekln Is very Intelligible. Pub
lic opinion In America Is avcrso to foreign
complications, whllo Russia has discovered
that conditions are not propitious for her
schemes of conquest. She lacks tho neces
sary largo army and wants the Translber
Ian railway completed beforo sho can
stretch her arms over northern Asia.
"The powers must, however, retain their
hold on tho capital. Withdrawal, although
not Inconsistent with the dignity of tho
Wnnhlnrtmi covrrnmcllt. would be OUlIC Ini
practicable for the others. It would be
counted as a triumph for the anti-foreign
party In China and represented throughout
tho empire as due to tho cowardice of.
Europe"
The Dally News says: "Considering that
tho empress dowager openly encouraged tho
nttacks upon the foreigners, tho suggestion
that tho Imperial personages nro to return
to Tckln is rather startling, and tho latest
development of Russian diplomacy requires
explanation at least.'
Tho Times makes no comment on tho Rus

NEW YORK. Aug. 30. Tho long
promised and long looked-for mooting be
tween James J. Corbott and Charles (Kid)
McCoy, under tho auspices of tho Twen
tieth Century club at Madison Square Gar
den Is over nnd In less than five rounds
Corbott proved himself to bo tho better
man.
That Corbctt nnd McCoy arc tho cleverest
exponents of the art of sclf-defonso among
the present generation of tho heavyweights
goes without saying and keen Judges ot
tho gamo who saw tonight's fight declaro
that It was tho cleverest exhibition ever
witnessed In tho ring. Up to the moment
that the men stepped Into tho ring opin
ions ns to their respective ability wcro
widely divergent. Many claimed, and
rightly, too, that Corbott would prove to
bo tho stronger as well no tho cleverer,
and It was through his superb feinting and
he&vy slugging that he put McCoy down
and out. McCoy's friends all along havo
claimed that ho was equally as dexterous
with his bands, eyes and feet as tho former
champion, nnd In addition to this they said
that tho Kid could bit harder than Cor
bott. All who have met McCoy acknowl
edge that his blows aro powerful ones and
that they sting nnd cut wherever they
land. Tonight, however, whllo McCoy
landed somo stinging Jabs, ho did not cut
Corbett's skin, nor did he land a singlo
heavy right hnnd blow during tho contest.
On the other hand, Corbott. when ho
dropped science and began to slub, landed
hard rights and lefts which simply took
McCoy's guard away, and when Corbctt
found a vulnerable Bpot In the region of
McCoy's heart, two lefts, divided by a
right, ended tho battle. Iloth men entered
tho ring In superb condition. McCoy was
heavier by sovornl pounds than on any
provlous occasion when ho battled against
other opponents. Ho sntd himself that ho
nover felt better in his life nnd that Ho
was never so lit as ho was for this contest.
Ills looks In the ring beforo tho fight and
during tho llrst three rounds bore out nil
that McCoy had said about himself.
Corbett In liood Minpr,
Corbctt was also in tiptop shape. Tho
rumors that woro circulated enrly In the
day that ho was afflicted with rhcumntlsm
wero exaggerated, as Corbott himself says
ho was at fit ns a fiddle and had only ex
perienced u stiffness when ho awoke this
morning. Ills footwork, always clover, In
fact, marvclously so, showed no signs of
rheumatic troublo in tho big fellow's make
up and as for his work with his hands, It
could not bo Improved upon.
In the opening round McCoy showed up
to much better ndvantago than Corbctt. Mc
Coy seemed very confident, though careful,
whllo Corbctt was nervous and 111 nt case.
McCoy started out with bis usual coolucst,
but Corbctt was fidgety. Tho cntlro rounc
was taken up with tho cleverest kind or
feinting and sparring on McCoy's part, whllo
Corbett's work left very llttlo to be desires.
In tho second round Corbctt came up In
better form and his uneasy feeling had evi
dently left him. His fretfulncss and nerv
ousness nnd disappeared and ho gave an
exhibition which could only bo given by a
mnn thoroughly posted In the Innermost
points of tho scientific art of boxing. Whllo
not a blw was landed by cither In the first
round, tho greater part of tho second was
equally as unfruitful of damago to cither
boxer. Corbctt frequently endeavored with
rights and lefts to reach the Kid, but tho
Hoosler fighter was too nimble on his unde?.'
pinnlngs and his stopping and blocking wori.
marvelous. Corbctt got to the head toward
the latter end of tho second round nnd Mc
Coy Jabbed his provoking left to Corbett's
face.
In tho third they got to each other oftcner,
hut It was In the fourth that Corbctt bega:.
to tako McCoy's measure. At times Cor
bctt stopped his scientific work and resorted
to slugging tactics, which proved very
effective. McCoy was forced to clinch nnd
It was then seen that Corbctt was surely
getting tho upper hnnd. McCoy began to
break ground frequently and after tho bell
bad sent them to their corners, while both
showed signs of fatigue, McCoy was cer
tainly tho moro weary.
McCoy Mere I'liiirhliiK
In tho fifth anil concluding round Corbott
forced McCoy into tho former's corner,
whero the Kid kept blocking and sparring
for nn opening to got out. Corbott swung
for the head, but McCoy ducked under
neath It very cleverly and Jumped to tho
center of tho ring. Jim rushed him ncross
the ring and by clover work forced McCoy
baok Into tbo corner again, whero ho sent
right and left to the Kid's head. This
was tho beglunlng of McCoy's undoing.
Corbctt went to him, using both bads,
swinging and stabbing and occasionally
uppcrtuttlng with tho left. McCoy's de
fense availed him llttlo against tho on
slaught and Corbett soon had tho Kid at
his mercy.
Kill lira n nml Dot,
McCoy saw that ho was no longer nble
to ward off the big fellow's blows and ho
threw his arms across his face, holding
his head down In hopes of saving himself
from a knockout punch. Corbott relent
lessly showered lefts and rights, which
straightened McCoy up nnd then Jim
swung a loft which crashed Into McCoy's
body. McCoy doubled up nnd In doing so
held Corbett's left glove. Corbott drovo
him away with a right over tho heart and
as tho Kid went back, staggering, Jim
leaped nfter him, Inndtng another left
smash on tho samo spot and tho Kid
dropped to tho floor. McCoy bravely tried
to get up, but tho three blows had tnken
all his strength away anil whllo ho mado
frantic endeavors to got up Hoferec
Charley Whltn counted off tho ominous
ten seconds. I)y nn almost superhuman
effort McCoy stood up after he had been
counted out, but ho was dazed nnd tho
referee had to push him townrds his cor
ner, whero his seconds took him In hand
Inside of two minutes McCoy walked out
of the ring, closely surrounded by his
handlers, ns ho was tottering on his foot.
Meanwhile Corbett's friends had Jumped
Into tbo ring und surrounding tho big fol
low showered congratulations upon him
when ho was nnnounced tho winner.
Thoso who thought McCoy had tho
punch that wins backed their opinion and
lost their money, ns Corbett proved tho
stronger and tho better man.
Corhrtt l'nvorllc In llettliiK.
Tho betting Just before the men entered
the ring was two to ouo on Corbott. Cor
bett's seconds were (loorgo F. Cousldinc,
Spider Kelly. Leo Pardello nnd Fred
Stone. McCoy's handlers were his
brother, Homor Selby, Harry Harris, Jack
OTJrlen of Philadelphia and Hobby nurns.
Corbett's wolght was not announced, but
Master of Ceremonies Joo Humphreys
said McCoy weighed 170 pounds.
Dick Bernard bold tho watch for Corbett
and Mlko Pnddon was McCoy's tlmo keeper.
At 10 12 p. m. McCoy entered tho ring,
accompanied by his seconds, and mot with
a hearty reception. Ho woro nothing but
a pair of white cotton running pants, Doth
of bis hands wero bandaged. He looked to
be in luperb condition and very confident.
Corbett followed In le.s than thrco min
utes, smiling nnd bowing as ho passed
through tho crowd. As ho entered tho
ring ho passed alongside ot McCoy, to
whom ho extended his bund, but McCoy
refused to tako It and Corbett walked
across the ring to his corner. This action
on McCoy'3 part met with some hisses.
Corbett was enveloped in a bluo and
white bath robe, which , ho discarded ns
soon as he reached his corner. Ho wore
black trunks and had no bandages on his
hands,
Corbctt seemed to bo In duo fettle and
smiled continually, while McCoy's faco
woro a serious look.
While tho men were being enred for by
their seconds, Dal Hawkins of California
and Joo Gaus, the Baltimore negro pugi
list, wcro Introduced.
These two men are to meet nt the Broad

will bo tho last fight In this vicinity under

examining tho gloves In tho ring. Doth
men examined tho gloves very carefully
and tried them on their hands. A3 soon
as they had selected tho gloves Corbett's
seconds placed bandages on his hands also.
Corbctt said that ho weighed 1S3 pounds,
but ho and McCoy looked to bo 1S7 and
respectively.
At 1U:3J rcferco called the men to

Corbett tried to hook his left to the bead,

Opinion of iteferor.
After tho men had retired to their dress
Ing rooms Heforco Charley White, when
asked his opinion of tho light, said: "It
was ono of tho fastest and cleverest lights
I hnvo ever seen. Corliett nnd McCoy aro
two of tho cleverest men in tlio ring today
and Corbctt won by superior feinting nnd
slugging. I did not llko Jim in tho first
round, ns ho was too nervous and McCoy
was outpointing him, but after they camo
up for the second Jim wns In better shnpo
and until lio delivered tho finishing blow
proved himself tho bettor man. Tho work
of both men was wonderfully clover and
fully bore out all that has boon said of
them for somo years past. Any ono, no
matter how big and strong, would have
gono down from thoso lost four blows that
Corbett landed, as they woro full of
strength and wero planted In the proper
spot."
Corliell lliiiiy of Course.
Neither man when ho roturnod to his
dressing room showed any marks on tho
faco or body. Corbott. of course, wns In
tho best ot humor nnd his friends, or rathor
as many of them ns could squeeze Into
tbo room, wero plying him with questions
or shouting congratulations.
"Now, hold on a moment," ho bald, as bis
friends surged about. "I want to ask you
somothlng. Was it a good light?" when n
chorus of voices answered, "yes. Jim sab:
"I'm glad of It, and I think 1 havo proved
that I am tho cleverest boxer in the world
and showed that 1 can punch n bit, didn't
I? Sny, bo's a clover fellow, Isn't ho? Ho
can punch, too," Corbott continued." He
can hit. I toll you, but 1 dropped to some
thing very quickly. Ho can only hit with
ono hand at a time. Ho cannot wallop with
both hands. When I 3aw that I made up my
mind that tho best thing for mo to do wa
to go In and mix it up with him. and 1
guess I was right. Now 1 am ready und
willing to meet any heavyweight fighter in
tho world, Jeffries preferred. I will rest up
a bit first and after that will take on th
boJt offer."
Corbott, whllo talking, was getting Into
his sticot clothes, and as soon as ho was
dressed ho passed out ot tho building, sur
rounded by a howling crowd, who checreC
him vociferously.
Mi'Coy Ik (iloomy.
McCoy's faco wore a gloomy expression
as ho sat In his room dressing. He was I

spoken to, said curtly. "Oh, I don't want tt

thought bo was so easy in the first two
rounds that I grew careless and he got honi

Tho men battled for 60 per cent of the

CHICAGO. Aug. 30. With tho selection
of tho foregoing officers nnd the choice
of Denver for tho national encampment
of 1001 tho thirty-fourth national encamp
ment of tho Grand Army of tho Republic
practically enmo to a closo today. Tho
program ns mapped out by tho reception
committee Includes two days moro before
tbo veterans nro supposed to return to
their homes. Nothing In tho way of busi
ness remains to bo transacted, the next
two days being occupied entirely In excur
sions, patriotic concerts In the parks and
other affairs of a social character.
Tho convention was called to order
promptly nt 0 o'clock by Commander-in-chief
Shaw. Tho committee appointed to
consider the annual report of tho com-mnndcr-ln-chlcf
approved of It, with tho
exception of his recommendation of nn
effort to secure tho change of the date of
Memorlnl day from May 30 to the last
Sunday in May. Tbo report was adopted.
Tho delegates then took up the vexed
question of pensions. Over tho report ot
this committee nnd over various amend
ments nnd substitutes, which members had
prepared, rather warm dobato was an
ticipated, but tho report as submitted by
tho commltteo wns adopted without amend
ment and practically without dobato. Tho
main feature of tbo somowhat lengthy re
port was the petition to congress to pass
a bill providing for a court of appeals to
net immediately on tho thousands of pen
sion applications now ncndlng and which
court of appeals shall havo final Jurisdic
tion. Later In the day pension mnttcrs
wcro again brought beforo tho delegates by
tho report of tho commltteo on resolu
tions on tho subject of service pensions.
Over this question the commltteo wns di
vided nnd majority nnd minority reports
woro presented. Tho majority report,
which was ndopted nfter a somewhat
lengthy discussion, recommended that tho
wholo matter bo referred to tho com
mltteo on pensions, thus practically bury
ing It until tho next annual encampment.
Tho minority report, presented by Past
Commander Hurst of Ohio, recommended
tho passage by tho encampment of n reso
lution favoring service pensions based on
length of service.
Pension matters being disposed of tho
election of officers was taken up nnd In
nn eloquent speech Major William Warner
of Kansas City placed Major Rassleur of
St. Louis In nomination for tho position of
commander-ln-chlcf. Ho spoko In part as
follows:

that this nation might live and prosper.
Tho last thirty-livo years havo shown the

OPENS A BIG NEW BREWERY
Melr, II ron. Hold n Public Itorpptlon
on Hip OcoiikIoii of StnrtliiK Their
Xpiv I'IiiiiI.
Moro than 12,000 penplo wandered through
tho big new brewery of tho Metz Bros, nt
Sixth and Leavenworth streets yesterday. It
was tho occasion of tho opening of tho plant,
and tbo firm bad nsked tho public to eomo
and Inspect tho great establishment and par
take of tho cheer It furnishes.
Motz Bros,' brewery has been a familiar
sight for many years, standing as It does
whero It Is one of the first of Omaha's big
manufacturing Institutions to be observed
by tho traveler crossing tho Missouri river
on Iho Union Pacific brldgo. For moro than
a quarter of a century tho old frame build
ings havo been n landmark there and havo
pointed tho way to hundreds nnd thousands
of peoplo going nnd coming through Omnha.
This old landmark is now supplanted by n
magnificent, up-to-date plant, containing all
tbo latest machinery nnd Improved appli
ances and processes for turning barley and
hops Into lager beer. It Is n part of the
material prosperity of Omohu, nnd tho fact
that it has outgrown Its old quarters and Is
well stnrted off in a most commodious and
perfectly equipped now homo Is evidence that
It has kept up with tho material progress of
tho city and will be In tho future a part of
Omaha's Industrial procession.
Yesterday tho reception begnn nt 10.30 n.
in. and the hospltnllty of the firm was ills
penscd with u hand that was moro than lav
ish. All day long tho visitors camo, many
of them old frlonds of tho Motzs who wero
anxious to nttest their satisfaction nt tho
prosperity tho firm Ib enjoying, nnd many
who woro lntorested In tho process of mak
ing beer and willingly embraced the oppor
tunity to Inspect a well appointed modern
brewery, whllo some there were to whom
tho attraction of free beer proved Irresisti
ble. However, this latter class was In tho
minority and tho wholo nffalr was one of
order and decorum throughout. One of Iho
features was tho presentation by the firm of
souvenirs In tho form of oxidized silver ash
trays. Ton thousand of these were given
away boforo 2'30 In tho afternoon, showing
the extent of the attendance.
All day experienced guides were busy,
showing visitors through tho various depart
ments of tho plant. Thero Is much lo inter
est n layman In a brewcrv. Whllo thcro Is
not a mass of Intricate and dellcnto ma
chinery to Inspect, thcro Is much to learn of
tho processes of preparing tho malt, tho hop3
nnd tho trcntment of tho beer through t lie
various stages of cooling, curing, aging, etc ,
up to tho time It is run out for delivery In
bottles or kegs. All theso wero explained
by men well versed In tho business and tlio
trip through tho plant was mado one of In
terest to all who took It.
