Jewett, Cliainian of tha deiu ttalo central commi tee.

By this means, if two or more ballots are folded and vo ed together, they cauuot be separated in the box and when the saspector takes tho ballot out to count it, and opens it, in case one or more are folded within it, they will all be in bis hand and not in the box nnd therefore should not, and will not bo counted. This plan, as we are informed, is in force in other states, and we see no good reason why it should not be carried out in this state, as there is no law again -it it. We are very anxions that there should be a free vote nnd a fair count in this state, and we will join you in any agreemi which is calculated to accomplish t(ise objects.

We earnestly requost yon to unite with us in an agreement, by which such a plan as we have outlined shall be carried into effect. We trust you will answer without delay. Truly yours, J. N. Huston, Chairman of the republican state central committee of Indiana.

A Cincinnati and an Albany Thug Pound I'ach Other. Nbw Yobk, November 2. Tommy Flan-aagan, of Cincfnnati, and Pete McCaba, of Albany, fought a desperate battle, lasting ten rounds, for a purse of $300, in the dining room of a hotel at City Island. The battle was witnessed by thirty club men, who paid $10 a head for the privilege. Flan-nagan was declared the victor at the close of the tenth round, after almost demolishing McCabo.

An accident occurred in the sixth round which might have terminated in the death of one of the- principals. McCabe, while being rubbed down, asked his seoonds for a drink of brandy One of his attendants hauded him a bottle containing ammonia instead of the brandy bottle. McCabe raised the stuff to his month and took a swallow. He sent up a yell, dropped to the floor and rolled around in intense agony. On the call of time for the seventh round McCabe was upon his feet and continued the fight, although his face bore an agonizing look that told of the pain the fellow wai enduring.

McCabe is 22 years old, five feet six inches high, and weighs 128 pounds. The lighting was of the hurricane order, and was bloody from start to finish. Flan-nagan showered blow after blow on the face of his opponent, while in return he received terrible punishment about th chest and face. McCabe was awarded first blood and first knock down in the second round. The battle beoa-ne so wicked toward the finish that many of tho spectators turned their heads away to avoid the sickening sight.

At tho end of the battle McCabe's left eye was completely closed and his right cheek bone was laid bare from a two-inoh cut. Flannsgau's face was bIbo a sorry sight, badly swollen- and bleeding. 'I he fight, which was the gamest on record, lasted forty minutes. Mr. Dickinson's Prediction.
