Endtrse the Monroe Doctrine Now.

This is an excellent season for Con-
gress to give the Monroe doctrine that
formal and official sanction that up to
this time it has lacked. There have
been many occasions when the doctrine
has received the practical indorsement
of the national legislature, but the fact
remains that it has never been approv-
edin the form of enactments and so
has never gone upon the statute books
of the country. It is now. proposed in
the Senate to amend the resolution
which passed the House appropriating
$100,000 for the purpose of the boun-
dary commission suggested by Presi-
dent Cleveland, by inserting a formal
announcement of the Monroe doctrine
and an indorsement of its principles
which will thus supply the defect of
many years. Any other amendments,
however, might be unwise. It will
be impolitlc to stipulate as to the man-
ner of appointing the commission or to
place a limit of time within which the
report should be submitted.

In supporting the President in his
firm declaration of policy, Congress
should piace no restrictions upon him
nor should it imply any suspicion of
his patriotism or complete sincerely by
indiciting u. desire to scrutinize his
appointments or dictate the length of
time which the commission would have
at'its service. The duty proposed to
be intrusted to this body is of the grav-
est consequence and on its findings may
hinge the fate of nations. It would
therefore be the height of indiscretion
to insist that it should be limited in
time or to seek to make party capital
out of the method of the appointment
of its members. In this matter, as in
all others affecting internal relations,
the administration must be taken to
represent the people of the United
States, and the two houses of Congress,
acting in a similar capacity, should
give their hearty support to the execu-
tive when he assumed an American pos-
ition that is sustained by history and
by fact.

The Senate Acts.

‘ After :1 temperate debate in which all
aspects of the present crisis were care-
fully considered, the Senate yesterday
passed the Venezuelan Commission bill.
The British presumption that the origi—
nal outburst of patriotism in the House
of Representatives was but a momen-
tary flame, and that the, Senate would
declihe to follow the popular branch
of the National Legislature in its sup-
plan. of the President’s suggestion, re-
ceives by this§vote a complete contra-
I: is to be supposed that

 

diction.
pleasantries on the subject of war
stares and popular flurries will no
longer b'cindulged in by the English
public. it must be clear also to every
enlightened Englishman, after reading
the dispassionate and sensible speech
of Senator Lodge, made while advoca-
ting an unsuccessful amendment to the
bill, that England cannot expect to
suppress American patriotism by the

trick of selling out,our securities or by-

calling loans and draining gold in the

hope of creating panics in Wall street.

The Sheriff in Town.

Sheriff Hawlev and four deputies
were in town last night, having re-
ceived a tip that the Scully—Murphy
fight was to take place in this neighbor-
hood. The information proved incor-
rect, however, and after enjoying the
Athletic entertainment he returned to
Bridgeport.

Postponement.

The observance of Christmas Sunday
at the Norwalk Methodist church will
be postponed to Sunday Dec. 29.

The special music and cantata will be
rendered then by the same choir and
orchestra. " This is owing to the illness
of Miss Byxbee the soprano of the
choir. Mr. Wyatt will preach at both
servrces Sunday. '

the great ballad singer. Mr. Moore,
supported by an excellent company of
singing comedians, will be seen at

the road. “Tuxedo has been rewritten
up to the hour and is overflowing with
ludicrous situations, catchy songs, med-

Hearty Fun at the New Central.
“Maloney’s Mishaps” which was pre-
sented at the New Central Theatre last
evening, contains plenty of fun of the
rough-and-tumble order. There are
numerous absurdities in it,but they

'are of that class that the more improb-

able they appear the heartier the laugh-
ter they create. The play as a creator
of uproarious mirth is a success, and
last nightthc laughter was loud and
continued. —— Philadelphia Chronicle;—
Herald.

Maloney’s Mishaps will be at Hoyt’s
Theatre Christmas night.

Only a Broken Nose.

Mrs. George R. Waters of No. 28
West avenue, who sustained a broken
nose yesterday morning in a runaway
accident, reports the wound as being
quite painful. She, however, called on
friends in the afternoon, to assure
them that she was “all right.” As
printed in these columns yesterday,
Mrs. waters was taking a carriage ride
with Miss Pearl Gregory, when a run-
away team driven by Fred Gregory,
collided with the carriage in which she
and Miss Gregory were seated. Mrs.

she and Miss Gregory had ' a narrow
escape from more serious injury.

invocation against_-the shedding, of
blood between the. two great English-

breathless attention by the crowded

noon. At that time the Senate was in
executive session. At 4:30 the doors
were reopened and the special message
was received, urging Congress to do
something before the recess for the

was read in the Senate, Mr. Cockrell
moved that the Senate adjourn. » 'Mr.

The 3. MIA. ‘o;*"‘oi...' Another
rSuccessfuli‘...Elitertainment. - ',

Several Fine Exhibitions Given With the
‘ ' .Gloves. '

Notwithstanding the price of admis—
sion had been raised to one "dollar, a
large and enthusiastic audience attend-
ed the entertainment given-"by the
South Norwalk Athletic club in their
rooms on WaShingtOn street last even-
ing. There were. sports present from
Bridgeport, Stamford, Danbury, Greens
wich and as far as Northport,'L. I., who
knowing that the Athletic club boys
always give a-first class entertainment
came to see the sport.

The entertainment was opened by
Edward Bandswitha’selection on- the
piano. at the close of which, Mr. John
Conroy entered the ring and intro;
duc‘ed reliable Dan McIntyre as master
of ceremonies and Louis Potter as time-
keeper.

The first event was three rounds be-
tween Tom McNierny. of Winnipauk,
andJohn Morelock, of Danbury. The
latter was smaller than the former but
Was built like a little giant, and he kept
Tom guessing, although the latter had
far the better of the go, and got in sev-
eral hard facets on his adversary, one
of which nearly lifted the Danbury boy
off his feet.

The second event was three rounds
between the Saunders midgets, Howard
and Herbert, which was quite scientific
and very interesting. At the close of
the bout the boys were presented with
a. bcquet of flowers with a dollar bill
added. Thomas Coles followed next
with two choice baritone solos.

tween Fred McGirr, of Bridgeport, and
Charles Matthews of Danbury. This
was the best exhibition of boxing ever
given before the club and elicited loud
applause at the end. Following this
go came Charles Fowler, of Bridgeport
in songs. .

[This ended the three round bouts
and Billy Forsytb, of Danbury, and
Fred Serrett, of Bridgeport, came on
for four rounds. Forsyth had the best
,of the go‘throughout and punched Ser-
ret in the wind repeatedly withouta
return.

After a ‘short intermission Dutch
Monahan, 'of the S. N. A. C., and Con
Scully, ofDanbury, appeared for a four
round go". There was nothing scientific
in the contest as V, both slugged for all
they were worth. Mouahan had trained
hard for-this bout and expected to put
Scully out, but in this he was unsuc-
cessful, as Scully staid the four rounds
and received three cheers from the
audience for his pluck.

This was the last of the four-round
exhibitions and the contest of the even-
ing between Harry Lane, of Bridge-
port. and Dan Keefe, of Greenwich,
came next. With‘ the exception of the
first round the fighting was hard
throughout the entire six rounds.

In the first round both sparred quite
a while for an opening, Lane finally
shooting out his left catching Keefe on
thejaw., WKeefe swung his right but
Lane cleverly dodged and Keefe slipped
down. As he got up Lane swung his
right but missed.

Second round—Keefe led with left
and Lane cross-countered him with the
right on the neck. Lane then shct
another straight left on Keefe’s jaw.
As the gong sounded Keefe let go a
vicious right that just passed over
Lane’s pompadour. _

Thirdround—Laue again lead and
both clinched, on the break Keefe
smashed Laneahard one on the jaw
that drove him into Keefc’s corner.
Lane rushed and as Keefe attempted to
run the former struck him sending him
to the floor. 'On arising both swung
and missed. Keefe then tried a vicious
uppercut which was stopped,by Lane’s
arm.

Fourth round —Lane led but .missed
and Keeltethen landed a hot one on his
ribs, both then clinched. Keefe led
with right and Lane ducked and shot
his right into Keefe’s face. Consider?
able clinching followed and Keefe made
two more ineffectual attempts to up.
percut Lane. Beth men appeared tired.
as they went to their corners. ..

Fifth round—Lane started in to force
the fighting and landed a hot one on
Keefe’suose drawmg blood. Keefe re-
taliated with a hard right on Lane’s
.jaw that made him wince. As the gong
sounded Lane poked, his left into
Keefe’s face. - ' .

Sixth round—Keefe appeared the
freshestlman and started in to do up his
opponent up. He led with his left and
Lane cross-countered with his right.
Both soon got at it in "earnest and. some
hard fighting took place. Lane sud-
denly appeared to lose his wind and
Keefe flow at him and. let go his right.
Lane ducked and clinched and then
hung ontoerefe’s neck until parted by
the referee. Keefe again swung and
Lane clinched and fouled Keefe by
picking him up and throwing him to
the floor and falling upon him. Both
men got up quickly, Lane seaming'to
have recovered, and as Keefe let go his
right he ..ducked and planted a terrific
right inflKeefe’s eye, blacking that
optic. 'Keefe,” however, went at him

 

lroundv ended. , :. ,

again but . Lane fought him off and the

 
 

The next bout was three rounds be-.

’ During the first . five rounds ' of the
contest‘Lane had far the better- of the
bout, Keefe succeeding in. lending but
two telling blows “upon him. In the
last round Keefe had the best of Lane
and «had hernot-become, rattled would
have undoubtedly made .itl-T'extretnely
warm for him. but although Lane was
thoroughly winded he succeeded in
keeping Keefe from doing any damage
by fine generalship. Lane is undoubt-
edly the better man and in a finish fight
would defeat Keefe. ‘ . . '
