 FITzSIMMoNs BAY St. Louis, Jan. 14-FItZsimmons
 walked twenty miles yesterday, the last two of which he made in ten minutes
 and six second. He came in looking well and five minutes after his arrival he stepped from his room looking as if be | had beeh only on short stroll. His trainer says the nearer the fight, the better his spirits. He seems rid of his cold and the lameness in his left leg has all disappeared.
 Carrol said that Fitzsimmons was at | weight and he would not have any trouble in keeping him so. He also said; |;
 My man is an equal in science with Dempsey, with the endurance of an OK, | is hard hitter and has longer reach,
 and where Dempsey is his superior in | some things I cannot find out.". 1.-THE NONPAREIL," NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 14-Dempsey ar | rived here yesterday morning but re- ceived no callers. Fitzsi mmons expects
 to enter the ring at 152 pounds. Those
 nearest him think he will win in ten
 minutes, Most of the northern and
 western money here is for Dempsey, but
 his packers are slow to gIve odds. Local
 speculators generally favor Fitzismmons,
 but want odds. There is absolutely no | question as to fair fight or police in reference.
