Citizens and OmciaIs Talk About

II the people IL general are discussing
the prize fight. il may be assumed that
the city hall officials are head over heels
engrossed in the subject. The opinion
prevails that the night viii take place

prominent citizens TO put a stop to il.
Mayor Smith again affirmed that he
would not try 10 stop the contest, and
the police do not intend 10 interfere: so
that 1t seems that there is going 10 be a
fight after all. The sheriff has his
orders. OF rather the proclamation OF
the governor; but il is doubtful whether
the governor has any authority TO
interfere. for according 20 the
statements Of Attorney General Clamp
be cannot do so. Sheriff Bean will
consult his attorneys 10 find ont
his position IN the matter. Officials say
that If the sheriff goes out 10 stop the
fight he will stop il though the
heavens fall.
Mayor Smiths action is generally
commended by the business men Of the
city and by other officials. Said one TO
a reporter: 1t is really a shame 10

A STRIKING CHARACTER.
Prof Corbett Gives an Interesting g
Talk on Pugilists.


Prof. James Corbett, of San Francis
co, is one of the most striking charac-
tiers in the whole aggregation of visitors.
He is a large looking man. but has none
of the superficial aspects of the profes-
sional pugilist. He would more likely
be set down for an actor, or politician,
or a statesman. His features are regu-
lar, bright and intelligent, and he is
clad in a suit of gray, modest yet styl-
ish.

MURPHY Is PLUCKY.
He Stays Before kemmick an
Even Dozen Rounds.

Little Jimmy Murphy, the clever Chi
cago welterweight, stood off Charley
Kemmick, the St. Paul welterWeight. in
the twelve-round glove contest at the
Olympic. last night. 1t was notable
event because of the distinguished
sports who oficiated. For illustration.
Andy Bowen, the little New Orleans
man who seems almost inyulnerable in
his class, was the referee. while Billy
Woods, OF Denver, the coming heavy
weight pugllist, and Johnny Van Hees,
the wonderful featherweight, were
Kemmick's seconds.
The outcome was a surprise to KEN
mick's admirers, because he should
have stopped the little fellow. But it
was quite evident that Kemmiek had
not properly trained for the contest.
He ought always to enter a ring under
40 pounds. but he weighed 146 pounds.
Murphy only weighed 132 pounds.
This difference in weight enlisted the
sympathy Of the audience for Murphy.
He was Justify cheered every time he
landed a blow, which. il must be con-
fessed, was very infrequent, however.
The aggregation of Chicago sporting
men who had seats on the stage were
dead leary of Kenmick, and continually
cautioned Murphy to keep away from
him. Jimmy" Jimmy needed the ad-
vice, and, after the first round, it was
sprinting match, although Murphy
was awarded the first blood in the third
round. This came from slight scratch
over the right eye. There was but one
knoek-down and that was won by KEN
mick. and several times during the bat
tie Murphy seemed groggy and about TO
go out. but he was good enough OH his
feet to run away and avoid fur
ther punishment. Murphy is
as clever in ducking as any
of them, ana he avoided, by these tao
tics, dozens of blows that would have
sent him out. Murphy's magnificent
condition was demonstrated by his re-
covering abilities. When time was
called at the end of several of the
rounds ne appeared groggy, but his one
minute rests always freshened him up.
and he sprang to the center of the ring
with alacrity each time. He is evidently
good for a long battle, and no one who.

READY FOR THE FRAY.
Fitzsimmons Full of Confidence
in His Prowess.

A GLOBE reporter met FitZSimmons
and Jimmy Carroll shortly after their
matinee before Judge Corey yesterday
afternoon. Fitzsimmons seemed slightly
overturned, but he is naturally inclined
10 appear gaunt, and may be in prime
condition foraught of his unfavorable
appearance. He has had the most skill
fuI treatment, for Carroll is an adept IN
his business.
Il never felt better in my life, Fitz
said 10 the reporter. MY training
has been severe. but il has been system
attic, and il has strengthened every
muscle without leaving a sore spot.
Il have done no work to-day" he
added. Il had just got ready when l
was notified that l was expected here.
and came right over 10 meet my fate.
don't believe in tampering with such
things. Now | am going TO work. Do
you know how? Why | am going 10
have a race with horse from here TO
our quarters al the lake. It's good,
long run, but think | can make 1t, and
beat the horse, too"
Beat il? l should say you could"
admiIingly interposed Carroll. Let
me tell you what he did yesterday. He
started little ahead of Us, and he was
soon out of sight. After we had made
long and hard drive, l got sus-
picious.
'Fitz has got foxy said to Barney.
He has hid IN the woods and we kept
looking back. expecting 10 see him step
into the road at any moment. But we
didn't see him. Finally we came out
upon the prairie. and there nearly a
mile ahead Of Us we discovered Bob,
going like fOuT-time winner. He Is a
runner from away back"
who was that assistant parsOn Of
the House OF Hope who testified against
me?" asked FitZsimmOns. When he
was told he pursued:
That man perjured himself. He
testified that he met me at the lake, and
that he had talk TO me. Did you no
tice his face? Well, it isn't face that
one would be likely to forget, is it? I'd
know il if l saw it twenty years later.
Now. l want TO say i'll emphatic Ian
guage that man never spoke 10 me. He
might have been at the lake, but l did
not see him."
Nor did any of u.s." added Carroll.
Il feel sure that he lied, and he ought
10 be arrested for perjury
FitZsimmOns weighed 1929 pounds
yesterday morning before breakfast,
and he will step into the ring tonight
al 154. He weighed little less than
this when be met Dempsey at New Or
leans. and he feels that this added TWO
or three pounds will contribute just that
much TO his strength and endurance.

FITZ BEFORE CORY.
Landon Secures the Arrest of the
Big Australian.

blZ AUSTRALIAN.
". L. landon. the assistant pastor Of
the House Of Hope church, swore out
the warrant for the arrest Of Fitzsim-
mons and his trainers, Jimmy Carroll
and Barney Smith. The warrants were
served yesterday. and the men appeared
al O'Clock before Judge Cory. Of the
municipal court. The defendants had
come prepared 10 give bonds. and the
trial OF FitZSimmOnS was soon over.
He was charged with being about
10 participate in prize fight and Judge
McCaferty appeared Tor him. The
complaining witness, ". L. Landen.
testified that he visited White Bear
lake on Saturday and that he saw Fitz-
simmons and his trainers preparing for
the event that Is 10 come of tonight.
Furthermore he fortified his case with
the assertion that he even cOnversed
with titZSlmmOns about MS coming
fight and that the latter talked without
hesitation or reserve.
The court placed FitZSimmOns under
$500 bonds 10 keep the peace. The
maximum bail IS S1,010.
Then County Attorney O'Brien called
up the other cases, those OF Jimmy Car
roll and Barney Smith. and a little
legal sparring match ensued between
MT. O'Brien and Mr.. McCaferty. The
latter said he was not ready for trial.
His clients were charged with taking
part in training a man Tor a fight. and il
was urged as an Onfair course to force
an immediate trial. after the men had
been training for three months. Why
had they waited until the very eve OF an
alleged event before taking action that
should have been taken a month earlier?
Judge Cory fixed the trial for Friday,
and placed the bail at 500 each.
The bonds were Forthcoming, and the
trio were soon OF for their White Bear
retreat.
No warrants were issued for Hall nor
his trainers. and Air. 0'Brien said no
application had been made 10 him for
anything Of the kind.

To-Day Inaugurates the Third
Meeting Of the Twin City
jockey Club.
Every Detail in Readiness for
the Splendid Race Card
Presented.
Montana Was Drawn and Po-
tomac Won the Event at
Jerome Park.
Racers That Took Purses at
the Rival Meetings in
Chicago.

The third annual running meeting al
Hamline of the Twin City Jockey club
begins to-day, and whatever may be
said of the remainder of the splendid
programme Of sixteen days, the meeting
opens with a brilliant series of bang-tail
contests for the inaugural day. The
programme presents its best wine for
the beginning. and promises that the
racing menu throughout shall be fully
UP to the standard established to-day.
This is Derby day, and for the
third time the crack three-year-oids
of the country Will cover mile
and a half of track in hot contest for
a rich purse and the added honor or
being a Derby winner. Against the
many counter attractions of the East.
Secretary Shaw has filled the stables OF
Hamline with the choice strings of the
country, and while the Hamline track
has already won renown in the coun-
try's turf annals, there are fresh laurels
awaiting it as the result Of the 81 meet
ing.
At the track everything is in splendid
condition, and though the stable room
has been considered ample, 1t IS tested
10 its utmost this time. But every ar
rangement is perfect, in both paddock
and field. The track has been worked
and reworked. and at dark last night
the superintendent reported II IN con-
ditiOn for the best horse that ever start
ed to race for his life. The many
changes and improvements about the
ground will add 10 the comfort and en-
joyment of the expected crowds, and
will be appreciated 10y the thousands OF
patrons of the popular track. Better
train arrangements than those OF last
year have been completed, and when the
Jockey club Office closed last night II
was in the belief that not one detail
that could add 10 the attractions OF the
card and to the comfort OF the guests
had been overlooked. The sale OF boxes
has been unusually large, and II the
weather is fine the best society OF the
Twin Cities will be represented, with
all the Accomplishments of gay racing
costumes. luXuriantly appointed rigs
and ali the brilliant paraphernalla that
are inseperable from Derby day.
The racing programme for to-day is a
splendid one. OF the five events on the
card the Derby is not only the great
attraction, but one of the features OF
the meeting. A Derby field OF seven
horses will be a pleasing novelty here.
Usually the field has been so Overshad-
owed by Two or three favorltes that the
number of starters has been small, only
four coming 10 post on the first Derby
day and but six facing the starter last
year The other events are well filled
for today, and the card is an unusually
attractive one. The programme 1oI-

a Sport Not in Love With the Bet
ting on the Fight.

George R. Clarke, the erstwhile popu-
lar Minneapolis caterer. but now of
Chicago, and very prominent in sport
Ing circles, was among the advance
guard that arrived in the city early.
He came with the expectation, he con-
fesses, of placing from $1,000 TO 5000
on FItZsimmOns.
The odds are too great and l don't
think FL take the risk" he said to

500 to $50 on Dempsey at New Orleans
made me tired. and I'll not get caught
that way again.

would want odds the otheTlway. They
