THE COMING MILL.
KiIrain i'm Fine Condition
Sullivan a Great Fa-
yOrite.

the ST. Sn8TleS nOtei duu hhen "
rooms of the Southern Gymnastic CLUB,
where q reception will be rendered me
pugiIist. Kilrain will be the guest oil the
club while here. Comfortable quarters
have been arranged for him.
Kilraia looks well and seemed to De In
excellent spirits.
Kilrain ran the Mississippi blockade
without arrest or delay, the train making
no stops. The presence OF a detective
aboard created some alarm, especially IN
view of Governor Lowre's proclamation OF
Yesterday of. ring q reward OF $1,000 Tor
the arrest of either of the pugilists should
they attempt to break the laws OF Missis'
sippi.
KILRAIN TO HIPPRoDRoME TONIGHT.
The program for to-day is luncheon al
the Climb, after which the party will 60 to
West end to witness a swimming match
between Professor Butler and man
named Clarke, at which Mitchell has con-
sented to act as referee.
Kilrain will spar tonight at an exhibit
ton for the benefit of local sport.
Kilrain is without doubt in splendid
condition. He appears to be confident OF
winning. He expresses himself TO this Ell
feet, saying that he never ielt better Ia mis-
life and felt now that he would win. He
did not underate Sullivan's skill and
strength. All he asked was fair field and
no favor and he was satisfied OF the result.
For further information to referred to
Mitchell.
Governor Nichols has his attorney gen.
eral and adjutant general in conference
with him yesterday and to-day. At his
request the former has prepared q copy OF
ali the laws on the subject of prize fighting
in louisiana. The governor has so lar
declined to say what he would do beyond
telling a few friends that the fight should
not take place In Louisiana. He will
probably issue q second proclamation
i against il tonight and call out the Louisi-
| ana field artillery for service to prevent it.
Opinions differ as to whether he will en-
/ deayor to stop the excursion train from
leaving New Orleans tomorrow morning
or send the militia to the scene of the tight
and endeayor to break il up there. The
latter plau would he failure, it is thought
as the train would never reach the ring.
/ Adiutant General Fairies has applied
for a special train for the militia to-mor'
row. Governor Lowrey will have militia
stationed tomorrow morning at every
point on the Mississippi line where rail
road enters the state from Louisiana, anc
il is thought that ii will .sbe impossible Il
fight in Mississippi.
SULLIVAN A BIG FAyoRITE-
Sullivan is the prime favorite here anC
is growing more so every day. The bet
ting is two to one on him, and 4 large ma
iority of the sporting men are for him. I
III. Donahue, sporting editor OF the New
York World, Henry Hunt of the Unitet
Press. Harry Weldon of the Cincinnati
ENQUIRER, B. B. johnson of the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette, c. J, Fitzgerald OF tn
New York Sun, Joe Coburn. Mike Leary
ANDY Bowen, Jack Burnett, Mike Dono
van and Jimmie Foley, all old sports, ar
certain that he will win.
THE SCENE OF THE FIGHT.
1t is announced to-day that the sit
: chosen is on the plantation Of New Oh
, leans man, fenced in, where the authorize
j can not 60 and where arrests can not
made except on warrants. The manager
swear that the fight will come of, militi
or no militia, Monday morning, and publ
e opinion is about divided on that subiec
. many thinking that it will have TO be pos
poned few days.
There will be 40 special ring polio Q
q the grounds. 1t was originally intended
arm these men, but in Difference to Sull
s vans protest the arms will be absndone
oil OLD SCORES TO SETTLE.
/. AS the time approaches for the gre
mill, il becomes more apparent that
} will be one of the most determined {
l. record. There are many reasons for th
4 assertion. The principal one, however,
- the bitterness which is felt not alone
d between Sullivan and Kilrain, but on q
: part of the men who are training the I,
athletics. The fight will be not alone I
J. supremacy, and the $50 900 stakes, but d
spirit of revenge for real or fancied
suits will hover over the ring and ner
the giants TO do or die.
The plans for the accommodation oil
y large crowd are progressing smoothly ~
d as II a picnic was to be the attraction
lie stead of prize fight which has called Tor
o proclamations from three governors wi
lie one or two yet to hear from. The opinl
IL of the attorney general of louisiana, viii
p he publicly expressed, that there was
y law prohibiting prize fights has eased
ed minds of officials of surrounding parish
ID and the fight will come off although
is. exact locality has not yet been made pr
no lie. 1t will, however, be within TIL
IS. hours run by rail of New Orleans.

4 1t is reported this morning that the p
IN grsmme for the fght will be changed
