A Jab from Greggains1 lett jog gled Costello's tiund , nnd n tew light blows wure exchanged. Twice Costello essayed lo knock out his opponent and each timu Groe- gains cleverly uuekod to save himself from what hu Know mint be a knock-out blow.

Ir. round twenty-nine Costello started ulood from Gioggains' nose again , nnd the round ended with honors in Costollo'favor. . In the next four rounds there was little pun ishment. At ttiu end of tbo thirty-seventh It was still anybody's light. The next , time rounds wrru tame uut In"round forty Costello forced Ihu lighting and hammered Grogeuins' nose till the blood covered hU face.

Tlio fact that the Rothschilds are ut the botlom of It makes possible tha carrying out of such n mammoth scheme , but It does not mean that is to bo nn English enter prise. In the words of Mr. Busch It 1s to bo im institution of the world , und interests lu It are to bo hold wherever the bonds can bo placed.

The combined output will bo some thing enormoui , as tbo schema involves an Increase of the capacity ot each brewery conccrnnd , and it Is claimed that the com bined interests of the world ouUddo of the now ontcrprlso will not reach the .niter's capacity. For several months past rumors have been rlfoof a tremendous browcry deal.

As stated , the breweries involved are en gaged In filling the export trade almost ox- : luslvcly , und are the four principal export jrutvurios of the country aim , Indeed , of the ivorld.

" Say it is rulm-Iiooil. Mn.w.tuKic : , Wts. , Nov. 23.The brewers of Milwaukee indignantly deny too state ments coming from St. Louis regarding the consolidation of breweries. They charaotor- zo tbo whole ufTuirus nn advertisement , sent out fora certain St. Louis brewing company , tending to show that this brewing company manufactures moro ueur than anv other in llio United States. To substantiate this otatumont the brewers refer to ibo attempt to loy creat stress on the comparative output ol tbo thrcn largo breweries , which would have but little to do wuh u oona lido statement. In a report from St. Louis the capacity of the Pubst company Is placed ut l.OOJ.OJO birrolsof boar annually , when In realltv Iho capacity Is 'J.OOO.OOU barrels , without the addition of the Falk- .lutifT and Borchcrt plant , which wus burned down and not rebuilt. The actual output ol the Pabst breworv from Dccombor 1 , IS'Jl ' , to November 2S , IS'.U ' , was 1OTO,000 barrels.
