New York, June 1& The long discussed boxing contest between Jake Kilraio of Baltimore and Prank Slavm of Australia, for a I10jy purse, took place tonight at the club bouse of the Granite Athletic Association, or Jlo- buken. Tbe attendance was not quite up to the expectation, but a large number ot well known sports were there. The men were very late coming into the ring and as there were no preliminary sparring matches tbe audience grew very impatient. Finally, at 11:10, the contestants came in. Jere Lfunn was referee; John Kelly, time keeper; Muldoon, Cleary and Murrry, Kilrain's seconds; and Mitchell, fcxl Stoddard and Pony Moore acted for Slavin. Tbe eloves were four ounce. Time was called at 11:22, and Slavin immediately began offensive work and after clinching once commenced a terrible right hand pounding on Kilrain's ribs just below the heart Jake, though weakened, made a grand rally and gave Slavin some bard blows right and left. Clinch upon clinch followed and tbe round ended in favor of Hilrain, be get on tbe Australian ting in a In the second round clinch work be gan at once and again the Australian pounded away on Kilrain's ribs, the v hen ine men blows being sickening. separated Jake assumed offensive in a gallant manner and banged SlHVin on the bead heavily with right and left. After another clinch and more ribroast ing, Jake landed a right bander on Sla- viu's neck, causing him to whirl half around. Jake followed this up with terrific right and left facers and the round ended in his faver. In tli a third, after a light inter chance, Jake went for Slavin again and hammered him to the ropes, but this seemed to be the end of his strength for soon after Slavin shot out bis right, caught Jake under the left ear, and down he went like a log. He managed to stag ger to his feet but it was evident bis strength was gone. After another clinch, he received another terrible blow which felled him to the stage painfully and half insensible. Jake managed to stag ger to bis knee and the gong saved him. The fourth round bad barely opened when down be went again. Those ter rible heart blows had .evidently done thf jwork.

Once Slavin had Jake in his (Slavin's) corner in a puddle of water and was about to pound him there when Referee Dunn interfered. The Australian tried to push Dunn aside, but tbe referee insisted and the gong gave Jake another lease ot life. In the sixth, there were more clinches and again those dreadful body blows fell beneath Kilrain's heart. Jake seemed to pick up a little and landed a neat upper cut beneath Slavin's jaw but in the clinch which followed he again suffered severely. Jake was little more than a chopping block for the Australian and had it not been that both men were dripping with water and the hard red leather gloves slippery, Slavin's blows would have finished Jake before. In the seventh Slavin no sooner got in range than he went for Jake's ribs with the same vim as in the first round. After breaking away they exchanged a few ineffectual blows, which . right-hande- if int lie Revealed the Snldto's Plot of Eaeni. Chcveshr. June 18.

The expected strike of laundry women was inaugur ated in a vigorous manner this morning when thousands ot female employes ot the laundries went out for eight hours and forty and two pence per day.
