HAN Knixrisrn , Cal. , Sopt. 23.-The fight
tonight between Johnny Ilcigett , known as
"Young Mitchell. " Callfoniia'8 rcprcsontn-
tlvo mlddlo-wolKht pugilist , and "Heddy"
Gallaghei , the Donvcrlte , iittMctod more In
terest hero than any similar uvont which has
lakoii piaeo in this city since the Corbett-
Jackson contest , and the rooms of the Occi
dental club were crowded at an early hour In
the ovenii.g.
The Ik-lit was for a M.OOO purse ! , of which
? 7C 0 went to tha loser. The bolting was
brisk and from odds of J1UJ to $70 nn Mitch-
oil it lurried to uoarly oven money before the
fight began.
Mltchcil'3 weight was announced ns 151.
Ills seconds were Jack Dempsey and Satn
Fltzpatrlek. Gallagher weighed 1,111 nnd was
neconed by Hat Masterson and Jlmmio Car
roll. Potci- Jackson was the rolerco. Uoth
men appeared in the pink tif condition ,
Mitchell being somewhat lleslilur tliiiii his
muscuiar opponent. Gallnbnr : stooped
Mitchell s rushes easily , once with a straight
loft on the chili.
The bill t'o ' opened at 8:59 : with Gallagher
feinting for an opening mid Mitchell break
ing ground. Gallagher got In two hot lolls
in the wind and on the oye. His torrlblo
loft played havoc with Mitchell's head and
\viml , thn latter being uimblo to counter
fjffectlvt'ly.
The second round was also marked by
rushing by Gallagher. From the third
to the sixth rounds thn tactics were
much the same. Gallnghcr'.t long
left usually reached Us mark , ns
ho maintained a position near the middle of
the ring , while Mitchell played around him ,
taking every opmiing that was presented ,
tmt In ducking almost Invariably catching n
terrillu loft full in the face. At thu close of
the fourth round Gallagher's loft eye was
badly swollen from a right bander. Mitchell
ulaycd for nn opening , scored twice effec
tively , but Gallagher's vicious drives for thu
chin kept him from too frequent repetition.
The sixth was marked by hurricane right
ing Gallagher scored straight lofts on
Mitchell's chin , but lacited a .shade of Knock
out effect. Mitchell also scored two hard
ones on Heddy's Jaw , and the close of the
seventh found Gallagher lacking steam.
From the eighth to the twelfth round
honors were about oven though Mitchell was
apparently the moro confident of the two.
Uoth men were now exchanging blows of the
rnn/zlo and Gallagher's injured optic was
bleeding freely at iho end of the twelfth
from frequent loft hand visitations.
In the thirteenth Gallagher came up n
trillo dazed , but landed two straight lefts
under Mitchell's chin. Mitchell suddenly
came back at him with n right in the neck
mid loft on the chin. Gallagher reeled and
fell on his side ; made a slight effort to rUe
but fell back mid was counted out.

CIIICAOO , III. , Sept. 23. Four decisions by
the board of commissioners of the Western
Traffic association were given out today by
Chairman Walker. The first denies an appli
cation for the rcduclton of minimum weights
on fruit shipped In refrigerator cars from
' . ' ,000 to 20,000 pounds. The second
sustains the action of the Western
Freight association In asking the
ciassillcaUon committee to change the
classification of sowing machines , set up , to
third class , minimum 111,000 pounds. The
third sets forlh that the Southern Pacific
r.nd Atchlson roads acted in violation of the
presidents' agreement in withdrawing the
leather traflle between California nnd Texas
and that rates on such shipments thould be
at once restored to their former basis. The
fourth opinion authorizes the Northern I'a-
cltle road to establish a rate of SO cents per
100 pounds on miiterlul for the construction
of merchant marine vessels from Plttsburg
to Tacnma with the understanding that if
the rate is found to bo applied on other ma
terial or Is likely to involve similar reduced
rates to other Paclllc coast points , the tariff
thus authorized shall bo forthwith with
drawn.
Commissioner Fulton of the Chic.igo nnd
Ohio Itlvcr Tralllo association has written to
Chairman Fiuloy of the Western Passenger
association calling his attention to the resolu
tions adopted by the Ohio river lines last
January. These resolutions requested the
western roads to discontinue the sale of
tickets from Kansas City , Atchlson , St. Jo
seph mid Lcavouworth via Chicago to
Lafayette and points south thereof at Short
Line limited rates. Commissioner Fulton
complains thftt the request has not been com
plied with , as the Kansas City rate sheet of
Augusts quotes Short Line limited rates via
Chicago to Indianapolis , Lafayottn , Kokomo ,
Delphi , Hicumond and Cincinnati. Chairman
FInloy has referred the complaint to the
members of his association , with the sugges
tion that the matter be considered.
Cnalrman Mtdgloy of tbo Woitern Freight
association will go to New Yorlt next week
to see what can bo done toward bringing
about a restoration of west boiindt reight
rates from Boston to St. Paul and Minne
apolis.
The Interstate Commerce commission to
day hoard the last cases oflts present.session
horo. Among them was the complaint , of the
Schiimakcr Milling company of Akron , O. ,
against tbo Hock Island & Pacific and other
western lines. The company ships cracked
and rolled wheat , etc. , and claims that it
ought to have the same rates ns paid on
Hour. The railroad claims that thcso goods
nro costlier and hence the risk in transporta
tion is greater nnd the rate ought to bo
higher.
