made to order on which deposits have been paid and which for unkown reasons remained uncalled for. Such things happen to every Tailoring establish

to dispose of them from their own establishments.

NICW YORK, Nov. 2.-A special to
the Herald from Wahlnirtoii eayn:
Vice President Hobart'a announce
ment, through mtMiibere of his fnmlly,
of his retirement fron public life will
make It neeesary for the- republican
national convention to chooee another
running mate for Preeldot McKlnley,
should the prealdMt bo renominated
next yenr. It will also necessitate the
choice of a prold!Vt pro tern for the
nennte to preeldo over Its dollbratlon
until a new vice president takes office.
Republican politicians are practically
agreed that Mr. Hobart's sucoewor on
the republican ticket next year must
come from New York state. Senator
TUvtt was In this city today, and It Is
undemtood that condldates were dl
ensued. If Governor Roosewlt had not
ho clearly Indicated hl disinclination
to accept the second place on the ticket,
he would be an Important faotor In the
speculations tut to tho candidates.
Ills nomination Is regarded, however,
a being praotlcally out of the question,
and tho two men more dlHcunned are
Secretary Fto;rt and General Frederick
Grant. Which one of thorn receives the
republican nomination may depend up
on the fortunes of war In tho Phlllplnea.
There are men who have served with
General Grant slnoo hla appointment to
the army who believe that he has In
herited to a great degree the military
genius of IiIh father, and that all he
needs Is an opportunity.

show whether those opinions are well
founded, but If he should command the

odds.
In the Delavan hotel last night, Tom

the Jeffrls end of the bet. O'Rourke;
is conldent that his man will win and
has more mooey to wager at the same
odds. Many smaller bets were made at
j 10 to 7, although in some Instances the
backers of Jeffries got 4 to 5 for their
money.
The Indications are that the odds
against Sharkey will shorten rather
than lengthen. Alr.ndy the Impression
that Sharkey has an even chance or
better of winning this battle is gain
ing ground. A lkttle more ground gain
ing and It will be even mouey and take
your pick.
Both men will come to town today.
This afternoon, Billy Brady, represent

senting Sharkey, will meet George Slier,
who Is to referee the fight, and talk over
th conditions which will govern It. The
object of this conference Is to preclude
any possibility of any difficulty or ar

READY FOR TONIGHT.
NRW YORK. Nov. 2.-Jim Jeffries
and Tom Sharkey will tight tomorrow
night In the arena of the Coney Island
Sporting Club for the heavyweight
championship of the world.
Although Jefferlos as the champion
and bigger man Is the favorite of sport
ing men, many strange stories have
been told of him since he went to Eng
land and since his return.
Both pugilists left their training quar
ters and came to town today. Sharkey
was never In better condition. A com
parison between his condition and that
of Jeft'eries could scaicely be drawn.
Both are fit.
A prominent man up tow n who Is In
the habit of holding a great many bets
s;ild tonight:
"There seems to be a lack of sporting
blood, so far as bets go on tomorrow s
