A FIGHT IN PRIVATE
The Pugilists May Meet Some
Day This Week.
UT WILL OCCUR I! ARKANSAS
oh mm Air of Mystery anrrouada the
rrveeedtage, Hoatitr, It Is Hard
m tie Amy Information.
Little Rook, Oct 89. Constable Al
loa P. Davis, of Ilot Spriug. gave out
information today, which lead those
who talked with him to believe that
Oorbett aud Fitasiniinou will fight in
private not fur from Hot Spriug, one
day about the latter part of this week.
Last Friday morning Corbett wan up
plied with newspaper containing "ti
nation that the wa about to quit the
state to avoid a meeting with Fittasim
Bioua. After pe rutting the papers, it is
related that he fractured the adjacent
aoue with ponderous swipes and vowed
ae would suy in Garland oouuty and
make mince meat, metaphorically
peaking, of Julian's man. lie at once
pitched into the work of traiuiug, just
as if he really was to fight October 31.
The prevailing opinion in Hot
Springs sporting circles is that the fight
will certainly occur at some point in or
near Garland oounty. Such an air of
mystery surrounds the proceedings
that it is bard to obtain reliable infor
mation, but that preparations are be
ing made in a quiet way for a fight no
oae doubts. Many Hot Springs people
believe the fight will occur at Whit
tington Park, the site originally select
ed, and that the battle will occur as
originally agreed upon. They argue
the decision of the supreme court
affirming the prizefight law leaves the
matter exactly where it stood before
Corbett was arrested, and that it was
virtually a victory for the fighters.
, The fact that the Hot Springs Athletic
Club ha engaged a circus tent seems
-to indicate, however, that some private
spot has been selected.
A close friend of Governor Clarke,
has been shown letters from Hot
Springs which tend to confirm the be
lief that a fight will occur. One of
these letter is said to have come from
""Attorney Martin, and stated that prep
arations were being made for a private
fight. Governor Clarke, in speaking
of this information, is said to have re
marked that he did not care how much
they fought, so long as it was conduct--ed
in private, and without being adver
tised. This Is Different.
Little Rock, Ark., Oct 29. Gover
nor Clarke received information today
from Hot Springs which convinced
him beyond a doubt that an effort
would be made to pull off the fight at
Hot Springs on scheduled time. From
what source he received the lniorma
tion, he declined to state. The gover
nor still says be will prevent it. He
cares not whether it takes place public
ly or privately. He says: "The men
hall not tight on Arkansas soil." It
is believed Fitzsimraons will be arrest
ed on arrival in the state and placed
under heavy peace bonds. Governor
Clarke says he has been informed for
several days that an effort will be made
to pull off the fight in private, which
tact will compel him to be absent Arkan
sas day at the Atlanta exposition.
THE BATTLESHIP MAINE.
Serious Defects Discovered Which May
Bender Her Cnseaworthy.
New York, Oct 29. Thie Herald
publishes a statement this morning
that the new second-class battleship
Maine, which is to go to sea tomorrow,
draws three feet less water aft than
forward, and also tbat she has a bad
list to starboard, her right side being
deeper sunk than the left side. A na
val expert who looked at the ship when
at Brooklyn, thus sums up her defects:
"The facte are the Maine . draws
three feet more forward than she does
aft, and she leans over to starboard
considerably. Being now ready for
starting, having taken aboard her full
coal supply of 800 tons, and her com
plete outfit of men, stores and ammu
nition, she should float eymetrically if
she were properly designed. Her de
fective flotation lines must be due to
radical and permanent cases, and not
to a mere temporary misplacing of her
weights."
The offioers of the ship are reported
to be reticent concerning these alleged
faults, and it is not known who is re
sponsible for them, although they may
he due merelv to careless loading. In
all other respects the ship is said to be
a model, and her machinery, which
was given a dock trial Saturday, work'
ed perfectly.
The Nicaragua Canal.
London, Oct 29. The Times this
morning has an artiole on the Nicara
guan canal from a correspondent lately
there, who says it is clear the project
cannot be carried through as a private
undertaking, but that it must be under
the auspicies of some strong govern
ment, which, without doubt, must be
the United States. He is convinced
the cost will be nearer 20,000,000. It
is useless to suppose, he adds, that the
government of the state of Central
America will be able to supply the
necessary labor. The laborers, he
thinks will undoubtedly be negroes, the
West Indies negro labor being far su
perior to the Chinese.

PHILADELPHIA'S
ARCH-FIEND.
Now That the Purraut Trial Is NearlnB
the Knd, Holmes' lirlu.
Philadelphia, Oct. 29. II. H.
Holmes, or Herman Mudgett, whose
name or alias, baa ruug throughout the
length and breadth of the comment as
the most unscrupulous and skillful
murderer of modern times, will be
nlaecd on trial for his life tomorrow in
the court of oyer and terminer, of this
city. The specified charge to which be
will be called upon to answer is the
murder of Benjamin F. Pitexel, and he
has already officially declared himself
not guilty. The revolting details of
the many crimes with which Holmes
name has been directly or indirectly
connected have been given much pub
licity, and the cold, implacable de
meanor which has characterized the
man throughout has been so frequently
commented upon that the trial will
probably pass into history as the moat
celebrated case known to the criminal
annals of the Western hemisphere.
The commonwealth has already ex
pended thousands of dollars in its
efforts to bring the prisoner to sum
mary justice, and there is an indica
tion that if a conviction of murder in
the first degree be obtained he will be
quickly "railroaded" to the gallows.
Witnesses have been brought to this
city from Boston, Chicago, Indianapo
lis, lrvington, Ind., and almost every
city where Holmes is known to have
lived at various times. What revela
tions these witnesses will make has
been kept a profound secret by the
prosecuting officers, but there is expec
tation of sensational developments.
TROUBLE AT MULLAN.
Militia Ordered In Keadineu and Martial
Law May Be Proclaimed.
Wardner, Idaho, Oct. 29. The men
in the Hunter mine refused to joiu the
union and the committee from the
Burke and Gem union told them to
either join the union before 7:30 to
night or they would run them out of
the camo. All the men working in
the Hunter went down town last night,
and si trued an agreement to join the
militia as soon as it could be organized,
A telegram was sent to Governor Mc'
Connell, asking for assistance, and t
snecial train was sent to Wardner for
the militiamen. This makes 120 men
ready for duty at Mullan. The follow
in ir message has been received from
the governor, addressed to Captain J.
L. Batterton:
"Hold the troops in readiness. The
Hunter mine at Mullan is threatened.
One hundred troops are now at the
depot waiting orders to move. Twen
ty-four stands of arms and 2,400 rounds
of ammunition were sent from Wal
lace. Excitement runs high.
The Bannock Scare.
Rawlins. Wvo.. Oct. 29. From
troops returning from Jackson's Hole,
it was learned that the United States
marshal for Wyoming is now in Jack
son's Hole for the purpose of arresting
settlers who comprised the constable s
Dosse that, in July last, killed and
wounded several Indians, and precipi
tated the Bannock scare. It is believed
the entire posse, that consisted of Con
stable Manning and twenty-six depu
ties, is to be arrested and brought be
fore the United States court, which
meets in Cheyenne early in November.
The settlers have expressed their will'
ineness to stand trial for killing the
Indians who were arrested for violat
in it Wyoming game laws, and it is be'
lieved there will be no trouble in
effecting their arrest.
For Diplomatic Keaaons.
Detroit, Oct. 29. Regarding the ad
verse decision by the secretary of the
navy on the bid of the Detroit Dry
Dock Company for building two of the
new gunboats, Don M. Dickinson today
said:
"I think it is probable that if the
secretary of the navy has decided, as
the dispatches state, it is not for pure
ly diplomatic reasons, and not upon
the merits of the case. The adminis
tration doe not wish to do anything
which might further disturb the diplo
matic relations with Great Britain,
which are already in an acute condi
tion."

THE NEW MILITIA LAW.
Enlltttutenta
Cnder the Old
Invalidated.
Are Not
Olympia, Wash., Oct 28. Iu an
swer to the question as to whether en
listments under the old military law
were invalidated by the military code
of 1895, which repealed former militia
laws, Assistant u Attorney-General
Haight says:
"1 am of the opinion that the repeal
ing clause does not have the effect of
abolishing the companies , organised
and existing under the law in force
prior to the passage of the military
code of 1895. The code everywhere
implies that the existence of the Na
tinnnl Guard is continuous, aud that
enlistments made under the old law
continue in force under the new.
"For instance, in section 56, of the
new law, it is provided that no com
pany other than those now organized
and in the service as a part oi tne ja
tional Guard shall be admitted into
the National Guard of Washington, ex
cept upon the recommendation of the
military board. In section 09 it
provided that immediately upon the
passage of this act the commander-in-
chief shall, upon the recommendation
of the brieadier-Keneral, muster out
and disband such companies of infantry
and troops of cavalry and infantry as
may seem for the good oi the service.
I am, therefore, of the opinion that ii
is not necessary to re-enlist the privates
in the National Guard to make their
enlistment valid."
Cartridges Shipped in Baby Dolls.
New York. Oct 28. It is learned
that representatives of the Spanish gov
ernment in this country have discover
ed what is said to be a new plot ou the
nart of sympathizers with the Cubans
to shio ammunition from the United
States to their compatriots in Cuba.
These Spanish government representa
tives heard of the scheme some time
ago and employed a detective agency
in this city to investigate it Detec
tives have been watching the opera
tions of the insurgents' friends for
three weeks and have reported to their
employers that they have obtained suf
flcient facts to substantiate the original
theory.
The friends of the insurgents, ac
cording to the story, have sent large
consignments of arms to Havana.
These consist mostly of large and unus
ually heavy dolls. The weight is ac
counted for by the detectives who assert
that each doll contained a dozen rifle
cartridges. The laBt consignment oi
dolls sent from this city to Cuba is re
ported to have contained 400 cartridges.
Canada, Hawaii and Cuba.
Bloomington, 111., Oct. 26. Colonel
Robert (3. Ingersoll addressed the an
nual reunion of the Soldiers' and Sail
ors' Association of McLean county,
here this afternoon. In the course of
bis remarks he advocated strongly the
annexation of Canada, Hawaii and Cu
ba. He said the stars and stripea
should wave over all the oountry from
the Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic ocean.
He also emphatically favored recogni
ition of the Cubans as belligerents.
His sentiments were received with
thundering applause.

WASHINGTON'S CENTENNIAL.
A Cireat Exposition I'roponed to Mark
the Knd of the Century.
Washington, Oct. 28. The sugges
tion that a great epxosition, marking
the close of the present century, lie
held in Washiugtou iu 1000, is meet
ing with much favor. Beside com
memorating the close of a century,
such an exposition would mark the
eeutouuial auuivewary of the founding
of the seat of the government iu the
District of Columbia. In June, 1K00,
the public office were trausforrcd to
Washington and opened on the 15th of
that mouth. On November 22, 1800,
President John Adams, iu hi speech
at the opening of congress, said:
VI congratulate the people of the
United States on the assembling of
congress at the permanent scat of gov
ernment and I congratulate yon, gun-
tlemen, on the pro8eet of a residence
not to be changed. You will consider
it as the capital of a great nation, ad
vancing with unexampled rapidity iu
art and commerce, irf wealth and in
population aud possessing within itself
resource which, if not thrown away
or lamentably miscredited, will secure
to it a long course of prosperity and
self-government."
The house of representatives, in an
swer to the above said:
"The final establishment of the seat
of national government which has now
taken place, is an event of no small
importance iu the political transaction
of the country. A consideration of
those powers, which have beeu vested
in congress over the District of Colum
bia, will not escape our atteuion nor
will we forget that in exercising these
powers, regard must bo paid to those
events which will necessarily attend
the capital of America,"
A citizen of Washington suggests to
the board of trade that it would be fit
ting, as this is the capital city, that
each state composing the Union should
have a permanent exhibition located
here, showing its resources as to com
merce, transportation, mining, etc.,
Added to the natinnul exhibit and iu
dividual state exhibits of the nations of
North, Central and South America.

two forces at the eastern end, and,
those will be laid off November 1.
This action was taken as appropri
ation of congress have been stopped,

sand has been voted so far, and with
that amount eight miles on the west
end have been completed, aud on the
east end the excavations for twenty
miles have been made and seven locks
have been finished. A small fund is
yet available with which land for a
