New YoRK, July l5.-Unarlie Mitchell

once to the home of John stroul, in
Harlem, where his baggage had been re-
ceived from the south. Mrs. Mitchell
was expected from Baltimore on q late
train and was looked for abont IL so
O'Clock. John Stroul went to meet her
at the station. He said that Jake bad

ABOUT getting Jsks's share of the battle
money received at tue gate. stevenson
was not in the saloon at the time, 80 Nit
cne,l left note for him, declaring that

of the money. Stevenson received the
note, but asserted that Mitchell had al
ready said he expected part Of 1t.
"Mitchell," said stevenson, .hss no
claim, aod If he had would not recog-
nize it,"
Tomorrow morning Stevenson says he
will be ready to pay Jake's share of the
money over to his wife or to any other
person VINO may present Jake's order for
it. He also said he supposed he would

1t was stated that in all probability
Mitchell would sail in q d,y or SO for
England, aud Stevenson, evidently, will
no, shed tear over Charles departure.
Stevenson will meet some one in the
morning, he says, who il authorized to
receipt for Jake's share Of the funds.
To day was the day for AL. bridge, the
stakeholder, to pay over the $50, 900
stakes but 1t was not done. There was
a rumor that Sullivan was at the Wander
bilE House, but the only person there to-
day was Dan. Murphy, the bottle holder
for John L., at Richburg. When sp-
pealed to to shed some light en- the
locality which holds the stalwart form Of
the illus,rious priz4 fighter, he said;
.Sullivan is in Chicago, and we are
expecting word from b m at any moment,
Notifying ms OF his departure for New
York. We are expecting him to leave to
night. Thsre is no danger now of his
arrest here
As yet Mr.. Cridge has not received
notification from Referee Fitzpatrick as
to the winner. Although there is no
occasion for disputing the result, where
so large an amount of money is involved.
he thinEs It entirely proper that every
safegard should be taken before it Is
done.
W. E. Harding says: 1.-THE Polict
GGs.tte ia not ready TO baud over the
belt. II is not likely that John L will
have the snn OF seeing two Bowery boot
blacks fight for the dog collar. sullivan
will not be allowed TO take the belt until
he has deposited 81 900 with Richard X
Fox as security for the safe keeping Of
the belt, and also as guara, tee that b,
will defend the belt against all comers"
