PRIZEFIGHTING,
Scenes After the Batt(e,
,
Corbett Wept After the Approved
Fashion of Hard Losers.
Cakson, Nov., March 18. As Oor
bett's strength returned, and tllb bit
terness of defeat forced Itself 'Upon
him, his appearance, became pjtlful.
The hopelessness of regaining his lost
prestige made his talk almost child
ish, and his supporters worc'Velloved
to get Lira away from the, arena. It
was a half hour after the end of the
battle-before Corbett could be induced
to enter tlie carriage for the drive to
his hotel. The ride traced him to
,some extent, and he was niore cheer
Xul when lie reached his room.
At the ringside, .while Corbett was
being assisted .from his corner, and
the arena was being filled witii howl
ing Fitzsimmbns supporters, William
Brady, the ex-champion's backer,
springing to the platform, waving a
roll of greenbacks, shouted: "I have
$2,000 to deposit as an earnest that
Corbett can whip Fitzslmtnons for a
purse of $20,000. You yelling.howllng
idlots.come up here with your money."
The challenge received no atten
tion, and Brady was compelled to re
turn ills money to his pocket.
As Corbett staggered into his dress
ing room after the contest, his -brothers,
Harry and Joe, supporting him on
each side, the scene was a pitiful one.
Wbatto him -was honor, fame and
fortune -hud been irretrievable lost
within the .brief time since he had
left the iroom, .the confident unde
feated champion, of J the world. A
saort hour before he had been abso
lutely certain of victory, without a
shade of doubt ihat his record would
remain unmarrqd, and the crushing
defeat was' almost beyond belief to
him. JIistra1ners crowded' into the
dark little room after h'Irn and
gathered about him as he sank ex
hausted into a chair.
FITZSIMMONS EXPLAINS IT.
After the battle, Fltzsimmons
walked to his dressing-room accompa
nied by his wife, and followed by ins
trainers. Many shouted congratula
tions to him on the way and his train
ers of course shook hands with him
w.illc his wife hung on his neck and
kissed him.
"I am the prondest man alive."
said Fltzsimmons. "I have estab
lished beyond any dispute my right to
the title of heavy-weight champion of
the world a title disputed by one
man only 4mesJ. Corbett. 1 was a
bit fearful at the outset becaues the
first right-hand lead I made at him
landed ...on the back of his head,
wrenching my thumb. Thereafter I
was at a disadvantage, and you may
have noticed that my right swings
were short, but they were delivered
with the purpose of deceiving Corbett
into the belief that the thumb was
not injured. That accounts for my
mibslng so many right-hand swings.
I discovered at the outset that his
punishment did not affect me. If his
jabs had landed any place other than
on my lips, which are susceptible to
bleeding, I would have escaped with
out a scratch.
"Corbett tulks about a return fight,
and says that he will follow mo from
town to town until I give a return
battle. A am 3G years of age, and have
fought more championship 'battles
than any two men in ancient or mod
ern ring annals and shall retire. I
will never flgnt again, Julian and I
will now take possession of the niche,'

his interpretation of the rules was
along fair lines.
1 1 liavo been confident all along of
my ability to whip Corbett. My
roasting him was prompted solely by
my desire to get lilni into the ring.
I did not think I could ever get him
to face mo unless I made him believe
that I was a bit chary of meetlog
him. He gave me a hard fight, and I
got considerable punishment. I
waited for Mm time, and finally, as
I could nob get at his head, played for
his body, and finished him. I ended
Cofbett with the same blow I used on
Sharkey a left-hand swing on the
body under the heart."
Fltzsimmons Is In good condition,
barring a sprained thumb, and It Is
badly swollen: He drove Into town
this afternoon with his wife, and
left on last night's train for San Fran
lso, tak'nj with him tho $15,000 in
drafts, which was turned over to him
by Al Smith, the stake-holder.
MltS. FITZSIMMONS TALKS.
"I knew Bob would win," she said
as she entered the carriage for tho
trip back to Cook's ranch. "I have
been confident of it from the day a
matcli between these men was first
mentioned, and I have grown more
confident everyday since the training
began. My husband is the greatest
fighter the world has ever seen,
and It1s only lo be expected he would
win the championship at the first op
portunity he had. I am going back
to the baby now, and tell htm that he
is the son and namesake of the cham
ion of the world. I am the happiest
woman In the world today; but not
liapplT than I expected to be. I
neycr had any Idea of Bob's losing.
This is only what I expected, but it Is
all that 1 expected, and the realiza
tion of our hopes Is glorious. Now
Bob and the baby and I will settle
down to a more quiet life "
Billy Madden, Sharkey una John
L, Sullivan have each sent in chal
lengers to the winner, who lias gone
to San Franciscn. Corbett also went
there.

GREECE,
The Sultan Wants Peace.
Makes an lOffer of Withdrawal of
His Forces From Crete.
London, March 18. Tho secretary
of tho Byron Society has received n
telegram from Athens, stating that
the 8ultan,,dc8lring to preserve peace,
has offered to wltkdraw tho Turkish
garrison from Crete and to assign the
Island to King George; to be occupied
and administered by Greece, with Im
perial suzerainty of the sultan, taking
tho form ot an annual tribute. The
telegram states that those terms are
entirely agreeable to Hellenic cubl-
net, as well as to the Cretan Moham
medans, who prefer annexation to
autonomy.
An Apparent Confirmation
Cane a, March 18. The admirals of
tho combined fleets In Cretan waters
made a formal proclamation of the In
tention of the great powers to confer
upon tho island an autonomous gov
ernment, subject to the suzerainty of
the sultan.
The Proclamation's Provisions.
Canea, March 18. It Is learned tills
morning that the admiral's proclama
tion announces that the powers have
Irrevocably decided to assure complete
autonomy of Crete, under the sultan's
suzerainty, but they have agreed upon
measures Intended to regulate the ad
ministration of an autonomous regime
to restore peace and order and to
guarantee to every one, without dis
tinction of race or religion, liberty,
the security of property, the resump
tion of husbandry and Industry, and
the development of the resources of
the country.
Canea, March 18. The blockade of
Crete has not yet been proclaimed as
this dispatch is sent, all statements
to tho contrary are untrue It Is ex
pected however, the blockade may be
proclaimed at any moment. Tho
French admiral yesterday received In
structions Identical witii those of his
colleagues.
Preparation.
London, March 18. Secret and
rapid preparations are being made at
Woolwich and other military estab
lishments in Great Britain. A largo
number of steamers have been char
tered for the government, and or

Catarrh Cannot Be Cured
with LOCAL AMPLICATIONS, as (hey
cannot reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh
is a blood constitutional disease and in order
so cure it you must take interna remedies.
Hall's Catarrh Cure is takenintemally and
acts directly upon the blood and mucous of
faces. Hall's Catarrh Cure Is not a quack
medicine. It was prescribed by one of the
best physicians in this country for years, and
is a regular prescription It is composed of
the best tonics known, combined with the

TARIFF.
The Amendments Proposed.
Full
Duty Must Be Paid Upon
Imported Sugar,
Washington, March 18. Two
amendments to the tariff which will
bo offered In tho senate promise to
compromise the Dlngley measure be
fore it gets (lirongh the upper house.
The most Important. Is that of Elkins,
proposing a discriminating duty on
all Imports coming to the country in
American bottotm. This Is supposed
to represent the wNhes of American
shipowners, who hope by making
such legislation to promote American
shipping interests. Opposition (has
developed from tho fects that it was
feared that this would divert trade to
Canadian ports, whence importation
would bo by rail. The plan will at
least excite much debate.
The second amendment Is that of
Pettlgrew, proposing that any im
porter who oould provo that the arti
cle lie wished to bring In was con
trolled in this country by a trust,
should be entitled to enter his goods
free of duty. This will undoubtedly
receive sonic support in the senate, as
It Is aimed at the trusts, but its
adoption would result in ruining the
Dingley measure as a revenue-producer,
hence there will bo a most vig
orous effort to kill It. It may prolong
the dlbcussion of ttie bill.
Fruit Canning.
San Ekancisco, March 18 .In
structions In regard to a ruling offl the
treasury department of Importance to
thefrult-cannlng Industry of this
coast have been received by tho col
lector of tho port.
Up to August 1 last, a drawback of
tho duty on Imported retlncd sugar
used in preserving fruit intended for
exports was allowed. On that date
the allowance of a drawback was re
voked by tho treasury department,
but the circular announcing it was
not received at tills port until Sep
tember 22.
The Plan for Annexation,
Chances for the Smith-Thurston
Annexation Treaty.
Washington, March 18. No plan
has yet been arranged between Presi
dent McKlnley and Secretary Sher
man and their friends in congress for
bringing about Hawaiian annexation.
The commissioners from Hawaii, W.
O. Smith and Lorln Thurstonv are In
Va8hington with a treaty of anncxa
tion, but those most Interested In tho
subject, and especially the senate
committee on forelun relations, be
lieve it would bo Impossible to recelvo
tho necessary two-thirds vote for rati
fication of such a treaty, and they
therefore favor an acoptlon of a moro
direct measure to accomplish tho
same result.
John W. Foster, who visited Hawaii
a few monthsago In the Interest of a
cablo company seeking a cliurter from
tho Dole government, Is deeply Inter
ested in the. annexation question and
has discussed It with several senators.
The matter has been Informally
broukht to the attention' of
President McKlnley, but he hns not
yet found tlmo to consider the ques
tion us to aha best method to be
adodtcd to bring about annexation.
