NEW YOIUC , Sept. 12. Terry McOovcrn
of Brooklyn whipped Pedlar Palmer of Lon
don thoroughly In Iws than one round
In the arena of the Westchoster club , near
Tuckahoe , N. Y. , this afternoon. With the
victory went the tltlo of bantam champion
of the world , although both contestants were
really In the featherweight claiw.
| Thu Englishman , although forcing the
I pace nt the outset , was really never In It ,
nnd McOovorn elmply battered his oppo
nent Into partial Insensibility. The Brook
lyn lad's tvrms worked like piston rods and
the punishment ho gave Palmer was swift
and terrlbln.
The battle did not last qulto ono round ,
the actual time of fighting being exactly two
minutes and thirty-two seconds , at the end
of which tlmo Palmer was lying helpless ,
though half conscious , on the floor ot the
ring.

Through an unlocked for accident on the
official timer's part tha lads were ooparatcd
by the gong when they had been fighting
ono minute. Each went to bis corner , but
the error was rectified In less than
twelve seconds and the boy resumed hos
tilities In the center of the ring at the com
mand of Referee George Slier. The ringing
of the gong was as purely accidental as It
was unlocked for and the Englishman's
handlers inado no complaint on this score.
Veritable FljchtlnK Machine.
From the outset McGovcrn eeemed to have
his amn well In hand , but his most sanguine
admirers never imagined that Terry would
win In such short order. It was a case of a
hurrlca.no fighter plttod against a ctevcr
boxer and the fighter won. McGovcrn Is a
veritable fighting machine and he went at
his adversary with bulldog determination
and lightning rapidity. His arms were
never at rest for a moment and ho beat
down Palmor's guard with his sledgeham
mer blows.
The puree was $10,000 , 75 per
cent of which went to the wlnnor and the
remainder to the loser. In addition to this
both pugilists are tuaranteed an intercut in
the privileges accruing from the klnctoscope
pictures of the flght.
Flirht lit Detail.
Palmer led off with his left lightly on
the head. Palmer eemlngly confident c <
success , forced matters again , leading his
left again with force , but McGovern stepped
back quickly and Palmer fell to bla knees.
When ho arose they got to work at close
quarters , Terry landing right twice on Jaw
nnd then bringing It down to the stomach ,
at the Bomo tlmo keeping his head Inside
of Pak.ior'e iwlngs. Palmer landed a
good left on Terry's mouth , but the Brook
lyn man only shook bis head end kept both
hands working on head and body. When
they had bean fighting juet ono minute-
Timekeeper Pollock accidentally rang the
cone at a moment when McGovern was evi
dently getting the better of hl > opponent.
The principals broke quickly and went
to their corners , while their seconds , as well
as the referee , looked at the timekeeper in
amazement. The rcfereo eeelng that a mis
take had been made through pure accident
called the boys together'again and they
resumed hostilities , after a lapsa of about
twelve seconds.
The got to cloee quarters Immediately with
McGovern doing seine heavy half-arm work ,
then ho sent a left and right to the head ,
but Palmer countered on the face. Palmer
assumed a crouching attitude and seemed to
hold McGovern with his left hand , but
Terry , quick as a flash , hooked his left to
the head and Palmer dropped to the floor.
Palmer got up within four seconds. He was
groggy , and McGovern forced him to the
ropes , invlnglng both hands. The Brooklyn
lad was over-anxious to finish his man , and
Palmer , though halt groggy ducked beau
tifully. McGovern was all over him with
out pausing for an instant , and kept workIng -
Ing both hands to the body and neck.
Palmer again got into a half crouching at
titude and c ° t to a clinch. As they broke
McGovern throw his right hard over the
heart and hooked his loft to the point ot
the Jaw. Palmer staggered from the ef
fects of this blow and McGovern seeing his
opportunity , threw the right over to the
mark and Palmer fell to the floor In a half
conscious condition. He made desperate at
tempts to get up , but they were Ineffectual.
McGovern , after ho delivered the final blow ,
turned his back on his opponent and waved
his hands to his seconds as much as to say :
"It Is all over. "
The referee btmt over Palmer and counted

he uttered the word "ten" Palmer's seconds

ISOUTH ; OMAHA NEWS.
The boodle talk which developed at the
mooting of the Board of Education Monday
night was one ot the principal topics of con
versation on the streets yesterday. Those
who arc at al ) farnlllar with the condition
of school board affairs did not appear to bo
' surprised , but to a large majority the news
1 came In the nature of a shock. The roputa-
I tlcn which the board bo * was ehown by the
I letter read by Member FrclUg In conncc-
| tlon with the agreement to pay a certain
j aum for a teacher's position. This latter ,
Mr. Freltag rays , he never answered , but
ho read It to show the Impression which i
seems to prevail In connection with the con
duct of affairs by members of the board ,
Of course Mr , Wyman denies that he
ever sent word to Mr. Stewart that It
would tuko $50 to secure the eale of flvo
typewriters and there the matter rests.
Thote who demanded an Investigation did
not perultt and the probability Is that the
matter lir be dropped.
Some'of those who are reputed to be un
friendly to the board stated yesterday that
the contract for the new school building at
Twentieth and 0 streets would never be al
lowed to go through. A restraining order
Is threatened "on the ground that the board
haa excot-ded Its authority In allowlnc a
contract for a sum exceeding $5,000. It Is
stated that Intro la a Uw preventing the
board from awarding contracts above the
cum mentioned , but If cuch la the case It
has been frequently violated. Last year
four rooms were added to the Lincoln
school at A cost of $8,000 and there was no
complaint. Soon after this the Highland
school was erected at a cost of over $8,000
and thla question ot law was never brought
up , so that it may como In bad grace now
to Interfere with the1 erection of a building
which Is so badfy needed. Superintendent
Wolfe's report shows that the schools nro
full to overflowing and that the proposed
now building Is needed to reduce the pressure -
sure in thrco schoolhouses n vr the heart
of the city. Wolfe and others who have the
Interests of the schools at heart hope that
petty politics may bo laid asldo and that
the construction of tbo building may bo gene
nhcaa with in order that additional room
may bo provided for pupils.
I'linhliiK Arninnr'RVnrclioiiftc. .
Electric arc lights have been placed about
the excavations at Armour's so that the
driving of piles for the new nlno story ware
house may go on day and night. Over 2,1 ( JO
piles aVe to ba driven and in order to ex
pedite the work a steam hammer pile driver
from Chicago has been procured. This Is
something now here , as the old style drop
weight has always been used heretofore.
The steam hammer now In UPO hero Is the
same onn thnt was used In driving the plica
for the new postofllco building In Chicago.
By the use of this machine 120 piles arc
driven In twenty-four hours , which Is way
above the average. The graders are progress
ing as well as can bo expected , and It Is
thought that this work will bo completed
within the next week or two. As fast a
the plies nro driven the heads nro cut off
and great oak timbers laid on top to form
a portion of the foundation. Above these
timbers will bo laid heavy slabs of etone ,
and on theeo stones the walls will rest. It
In the Intention to build walls thirty Inches
thick at the base , tapering to about seven
teen Inches at the top. When completed the
building will bo the most substantial in
the city. Rows of plena set In a concrete
ba s will run through all of the floors , thus
taking a largo propoitlon of the weight off
the walls. As soon as the bricklaying com
mences several hundred men will bo given
employment , and as the work progresses
more men will be needed , so there Is no
doubt there will bo plenty of work In South
Omaha tor laborers during the fall and win
ter.
llolleviii : Ilnllroml Scheme.
The old talk about building a transporta
tion line to Bellvuo la being revived , and
It Is reported that qulto a number of South
Omaha business men are now Interested In
the project. The scheme Is to organize a
railroad company with capital sufficient to
build a line to Fort Crook nnd Bellvuo and
give half-hourly service , or less If occasion
requires. This has boon talked over for a
number of years , and at ono tlmo the Omaha
Street Railway company seriously contem
plated the extension of Us lines to Fort
Crook. The high prlco at which property
for right of way was held killed this project
of the Omaha company , and for nearly two
yoara nothing has been done In this direc

ent scheme favor Incorporating as a rail
road company , for the reason that it will
give the corporation the right to condemn
property for right of way purposes , thus
getting around the paying of high prices
for ordinary farm land.
Whether anything will como of the plan

Yesterday's < < JeTelopments disclosed the
fact that harinopy1 is a stranger In tha
democratic camp and that all sorts of dele
gations may bo put up al the primaries on
Thursday.- the Third ward three different
delocatlons are liable to flght for supremacy
and in the Fourth wnrd there will be at
least two delegations. The same condition
of affairs exists In the Second ward , but In
the First ward there may not bo much of
a fight , as the leaders are endeavoring to
keep down a squabble between the factions.
It is stated emphatically by the antl-Ensor-
Hes that they will not compromise , but In
stead will get out and flght any ticket the
Ensor faction puts up. An effort was made
to get theeo factions together in the in
terest of Broadwcll , but while Broadwell's
friends met with some success , the result
was not what was expected , and It now ap
pears ua If there would bo another flght r.s
bl'tor as the last one. There does not seem
to bo any great opposition to Broadwell ex
cept from the antl-Enwar faction. This fac
tion , it Is stated , Is not fighting Broadwell
for any dislike , but for the reason that It
has been given out that Mayor Rnsor and
his friends will assists Broadwell In nam
ing a , delegation to the convention.
Harmony Is therefore a stranger In the
democratic camp today , although yesterday
the surface Indications were for a elngla
delegation in every ward In the city.
Fire Department Accident.
While answering an alarm of flro late
Monday night hose cart No , 1 was badly
damaged and will have to bo sent to the

streets in that section the cart struck a
rut which broke the tongue. By hard work
Driver Campbell managed to hold the horses
in the road for nearly a block , but In spite
of his cffortu the cart struck a telecraph

FAIL 10 SETTLE THE STRIKE
Advisory Oommitt 8 from Baildlng Tradts' '
Union Trlei Ita Hand.
CARPENTERS GIVE THEM COLD SHOULDER
Settlement of the Differenced Uctvrceii
the Men unit the Contractor * In
No Nenrcr Tiorr Thnii
llcfore.
The advisory oommltteo from the Build
ing Trades' Council , consisting of W. II.
Hell , painter's union ; Ernst Krantr , brick
layers ; W. P. Ciurk , tinners , and J. M.
' Hose , plumbers , attempted last evening to
I bring about a Bcttlement of the strike be
tween the carpenters and contractors , with
out meeting with any success.
The committee suggested to the con
tractors that they meet the carpenters half
, way by agreeing to pay 32 > 4 centa per hour
1 from cither November 1 or November 15
' to the first of tht , year and 35 centa after
' thnt. This the builders refused to Helen to ,
but later In the evening Bent word to the
1 carpenters that they would agrco to pay
30 cents until December 1 , 32 % centa until
January 1 and 35 cents from that date until
April 1.
While the advisory committee knew the
proposition would not bo considered for a
moment by Uis carpenters , they took the
communication to the Labor temple where
the carpenters wcro meeting In hopes that
It would net as a wedge , no heretofore both
oldea were afraid to make a concession for
fear the other would consider their move
a Blgn of weakness.
When the advisory committee presented
the report signed by President Jobst and
Secretary Hamilton of the association , the
carpenters wanted to throw the document
Into the waste paper baeket before the very
eyes of the committee and It would have
been done hod not wiser heads prevailed.
Committee Leave tlie Hull.
The actions of the carpenters so disgusted
the members of the advisory committee that
they left the hall , determined to report to
their respective unions that any attempts
In the future to act a * arbitrators In the mat
ter will bo useless.
Towards midnight the carpenters came to
the conclusion that they had carried matters
In a too high-handed manner during thu
meeting , and they settled down sufficiently
to appoint a committee from their own
ranks which will meet with the contractors
tonight and attempt a , settlement.
There Is no loncer any doubt but what the
members of the Building Trades' council are
growing tired of the arbitrary manner In
which the carpenters arc acting , and If the
latter do not soon show an Inclination to
arbitrate the Building Trades' council will
unquestionably vote at Its meeting Thursday
night to let the carpenters flght their battle
single-handed , and If they do not wl- > soon
notify their bosses to put to work any man
they can find who Is willing to go to work
upon the Jobs now lying Idle , whether they
are union men or not.
The communication received Tuesday by
the carpenters from Secretary and Treaa
urer McGuIre of the National executive
committee In Philadelphia , was , In BO many
words , that the committee has not sufficient
evidence to show that the carpenters have
acted as they should toward the contractors
In giving them duo notice of the expected
Increate , and until more convincing proof
Is submitted tha local union cannot expect
financial aid from the national committee.
In plain language the national committee
has not given the carpenters the support
they anticipated , and the letter has damp
ened the ardor of many of the men , who nro
free to express their willingness to go to
work If they are given the opportunity to
do so.
Discussing the strike , a well Informed
man said : "There Is one phase of this
matter which has not as yst been presented
to the general public. Since Labor day , and
up to Saturday night , Labor Commissioner
Kent had been In the city seemingly keepIng -
Ing up the Interest In the flght for appar
ently no other reason than to divert public
opinion from another matter. When the
state officials had some $8,000 or $0,000 to
expend for repairs on the Deaf and Dumb
nsylura the work wan done by non-union
men , Including carpenters , bricklayers ,
plumbers and painters. A non-union su
perintendent was also employed. The
union men entered a vigorous protest , and
Commissioner Kent was sent for.
"The local union appointed a committee to
Investigate and report to the union. Com
missioner Kent attempted to have Secre
tary Coohran of Carpenters' union 427 ap
pointed superintendent of construction and
repairs upon the building , and so manipu
lated matters that the committee appointed
to make an Investigation should not re
port until after the appointment was de
cided. The democrats succeeded In win
ning their point , and a non-union man waa
appointed , Secretary Cochran not getting
the Job In eplte of tbo support given him
by Kent. That Is a little ln ldo history
which may prove an eye-opener to many. "
The Building association met last
night In their new quarters In the Paxton
block , which have' been repapered nnd
painted alnco they were rented last week.
The association members still eland by their
first attempt not to pay the advance asked
for on exiting contracts , but are willing
to pay the Increase on all new work.
It has developed that no contractors have
as yet signed the agreement circulated last
week by the carptsntors , a synopsis of
which agreement was published In The Boe.
Among other clause * waa one to the effect
that all men should be paid nt noon on
Saturday for their weeks' work. The con
tractors approached to sign the same bavo
eo far refused to affix their signatures ,
claiming that It would bo practically Im
possible for them to live up to that clause ,
owing to the lack of time In which to
make up the payrolls and the pay envel
opes ,

The Fifth Ward Republican club hold a
well attended and harmonlouu mooting Tues
day night In McKlnney's ban on Sherman
avcnuo and Lorust street. One of the first
things done was the passing of a resolution
endorsing tbo candidates on the republican
ticket nominated at the convention held
September 9.
This resolution passed without a dissent
ing vote and was greeted with applause.
Several speeches were mode during the
evening and all npeakors advocated the
dropping of any little disappointments and
the banding together of the club for vig
orous and effective work In the fall cucn-
palgn. Among the speakers were R. W
ItlchnrdBon and Henry Ostram who gold
that republican principles wejo above any
petty personal feelings and they thought
that the only thing io do was to turn
around and make republican success an as
sured thing by working with all tbulr might
for the candidates nominated ,
Among other speakers wer Rrlco Craw
ford , candidate for Justice of tbo peace ,
Judge Klnkald and Mr. Christie. They were
all for harmony and hard work. A resolu
tion WBH paHsed with the end in view of
having n rousing mooting next Tuesday
