mother or the pugilist , when he was carried
Into the house , predicted that he would never
recover , while tits young wife grew hystorlcal
In her agony. Tiny sat by the side or the
Unconscious man and wept and prayed as only
f women can Hlscyes : had looked on them for
thabie4 ( time and he never opened his lips

lent , that would quicken the pulse and set

f noy thought Dowon. had Improved and at that
hour ho did not think that . the light would
have a fatal termination 'In reply to a. re-
Quest frolll the chief or police , Dr. lnney
lU sent a certificate eaylng that Bowen was
belter. It was a message : or relic ! to I.avlgne
and Duffy and the IICCOlllls , who had been arrested -
rested when Dowen's condition first became
t' IIImnlng : and who were prayerfully awaiting
t' to hear that the unconscious pugilist had come
back 10 lira.
" 011 , ANDY , SAY SOMETIIING : "
f The doctor remained with Dowen to the
end HIs wife also stood by his bedside .
Just as the ands l or the , clock were creeping
round ta 7 Mrs Dowen leaned pver the bed
and said , "Oh , Andy say something to me , "
, and ] her cars were strained to catch the
n' + word Andy , shivered and groaned , his frame
uhook and then without ever having come
back 10 consciousness after Lavigne had
Hnded ho breathed his last and the record of
II tragedy was written.
As soon as Bowen died a handkerchief was
' tied gently about his face and a message
was sent 10 the police statIon by the nearest
telellhcno , notifying the ofllcers or the death
or the IlugUlst. 'fhe police station officials
sent word to the coroner. The news or his
death epreall with great : raplllll Crowds
Immedlalely began 10 congregate about the
I10wen home end ( the newspaper nca and
friends ot the dead pugilist , with his relatives -
tlves , were permitted to view toe remains.
The dead man showed signs of the rough
i treatment flint he had received. Those who
saw the light said that H was not so much
h the blue which Luvhue hall struck upon
r the jaw , but the concUJislon produced by his
tall upon the 1I00l'Iag : or the ring. Dowen's
body lay on its back when a reporter saw
k + It early today , and whatever wound there
, was on the back or the head was not visible
The lips were swollen and there was a tinge
' or purple about lam , and ! his rather large
( ace seemed somewhat larger than usual ,
although there was no strong ! sign or pain :
4 . . upon It. The features were natural and the
y ' ' i
mouth partly open .

that It was not the blow that had done the

DETAILS OF THE FATAL ROUND
When the men faced each other for the
eighteenth round It was apparent that the
end , or the fight ! was near. Bowen had received -
ceived so many hard rlglit-halHlers over the
heart that he was weal.med and groggy
when ho let his cornet Ho was game ! , hQw-
ever , and walked mechanically toward his
strong young a yersary. l.avigne opened
with a left jab on the neck , and though the
hlow was not D. ' particularly hard one 11
brought a look 'or anguish 10 the face or
the thoroughly-b little man ' HIs
mouth was : partially , open , while his eyes
were a whd frightened look. His cheeks
were bruised and swollen and his Ups were
cut A 'cut over the left eye was the only
color on his face. His breath was coming
In quick gasps . and after breathing a moment
he would catch his breath , lint he wall
game and would not flinch from the shower
of blows dealt at him , and although his
slrenglh was gone he tried bravely to
fight back every time thin visitor was close

"No : I do not. The many tatalltlen that

the men who use It , In these days fighters

every respect more sklllCul and scientific

nays that the blow on the jaw at Bowen
could not have resulted In death , but the

LONDON , Dec , 15-An : Interview with
Lord Dunravenwhich the Field publishes ,
repeats In substance , what his lordship had
previously sold to the representative at the
Associated press : To the Field Lord Du'n-
raven said : "I have read that they arc
anxious for a. race. If so amen
will be a. ra.ce. Butt they have made
the position difficult by raising exactly the
same point which put an end to the match
with the first Valkyrie Now It certainly
never occurred to me that the terms of the
1692 challenge were generally understood the \ )
he unsatlsfactor Nobody ever said ao
when I was In New York In 1693 , when
we discussed the chances of future races ,
and If [ any difficulty was felt In the matter
It Is to he regretted that those who felt It
did not begin to clear It away at nn earlier
elate 'A race Is a' certainty , If the committee -
tee will agree to race 'Uneler any circum-
stances and clear lip the dlllleullles later
with the Royal Yacht s uadron , 'The race
may be for the America s cup , If It be 60
settled between the two clubs , or for some-
thing ! else. This Is sublantlall the offer
1 made In the case or time first Valkyrie , and
which the New York' ' Yacht club refused. It
Is their turn to make It now. "
.No formal mating at the olllcera of the
Royal Yacht squadron has yet been decided
upon , In' ! spite of' the announcement to the
contmry. Lord Dunraven has conferred
with 1I1r. Richard Grant secretary of the
Royal Yacht squadron , and with several
other members 'of the squadron , but until
ho sees the prinde of Wales no action on
behalf of the Royal Yacht squadron will be
taken 'rho prince of Wales today presided

absolved front liability to the couuly.
ChaIrman Stenberg then stated that Van

notwithstanding .
This closed the discussion and the report
was adopted , Chairman Stenbrg alone voting
In the negative.
At its regular meeting yesterday afternoon
the Board of County Commissioners authorized
and directed County Judge Baxter 10 at once
Institute such proceedings as In his judg-

was taken In accordance with a resolution
offered at the last meeting by Commlsloner
Jenkins . Accm'punylng the resolution was
a communication from Judge Baxter , In
which the latter stated that the opinion or
the county attorney had been given without
a personal examination of the records or the
ofllce. Judge Baxter urged immediate action.
The committee on finance , to which the resolutions -
