rsrrcIAL TELEGRAM TO THE D1sPATcH.I

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.I
NEW YORK, Dec. 7.-For some unknown
reason the opinion seems current that
Pugilist Peter Msher has neglected to get
himself in proper condition for bis battle
with Goddard, and is in consequence in
capable of really making it interesting for
the Barrier champion on Thursday night
A number Of newspaper men and sports, in
cluding Dave Holland, Maher's backer, and
John Brady, visited Maher yesterday.
Maher never looked better in his life. His
skin is as white and firm as human training
skill could possibly make it There is not
an ounce of adipose tissue visible. His
flesh to the touch is as hard and tough as
shoe leather, and his splendid condition re-
fleets great credit upon his faithful trainer,
Tommy Clark.
When Maher first commenced the ardu-
Gus task set before him he weighed something
in the neighborhood of 1874 pounds Yes
terday, in the presence of reporters, he
tipped the scales at exactly 1751I. The
methods he employed in getting rid of the
obnoxious superfluous flesh he illustrated.
Peters first taste of hard work comes at
OsOu III lhO Ao-
miliar footsteps may be heard as they travel
at gentle trot back over the hill of Nave
sink. He usually takes ten-mile spin
and then returns to his abode. Then fol-
lows the punching-bag exercise, which
usually lasts 40 minutes or so. This leather
covered sphere, by the way, met with sad
fate yesterday. Peter grew so energetic
over his work that he put more force than
usual in his blows and burst the bag to
pieces. A new one had to be substituted.
After this had been dispensed with he tried
his strength at the wrist machine" then
a trial of his wind, skipping the rope, and
lew minutes with the dumbbellS After
this follows brisk exercise with the "med-
ic;ne" ball, and then a rub down. The same
routine is followed in the afternoon, only
that the walk is stretched to 15 miles, and
running up and down 80 steps for 20 min
utes is added to the programme. He is
rubbed down good and hard this time in
alcohol and then takes a short walk.
The betting to-day was 5 to and as high
as to 4 on Goddard. Maher's stock is
going up and the immediate friends of both
men to-day bet money; at least they de-
posted money as bets. There are many
suspicious people who think the contest is
''fxed." If it is Maher will win it, and he
has good chance to win on the square.

ablaze and burned. Adjoining this
was G. E. Kings coal sheds, the

THE PENSION SYSTEM.
GENERAL BUssEY REVIEWS THE
WORKING OF THE LAW.
He Calls Attention to Present Serious Defects
and Suggests Remedies That Will
Secure Pensions to Those Only
Who Deserve Them.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23-The annua
report of General Bussey, assistant
secretary of the interior, deals ex'
clusively with the work of the board
of pension appeals of which the assist
ant secretary has direction, and with
the purchase of Indian supplies at the
government warehouse in New York
In discussing pension laws General
Bussey calls attention to several de.
fects in pension legislation. AS an
instance, of such defects, he says, there
has prevailed under different adj,
ministrations conflicting opinions as
to the power of enforcement of re-
imbursement of amounts paid in ex-
cess for pensions.
In order to supply remedies congress
will be requested to enact law that
shall expressly authorize the depart
ment to treat all improper, illegal and
excessive payments of pensions,
whether caused by fraud or by mis-
take as prepayments to be charged
against current pensions, with view
to reimbursement or equalizlng current
pension payments within the discre-
ton of the secretary. In applications
for widows pensions under the act OF
June 81, 1889, he says in number OF
cases claimants were denied pensions
because the soldier on whose death
the claim was based had not been hon
orably discharged prior to his death,
but died while on furlough and absent
from his technical line of duty in
service. He urges an Amendments ap-
plicable to such case. General Bussey
renews the recommendation that the
act should be so amended as to permit
all insane, idiotic or otherwise perma-
nently helpless children to receive
minors pensions regardless of death
of parents or re-marriage with pen
si0nable age limit abolished. General
Bussey also complains of the practice
of pensioning certain class z of
insane inmates of the gOvernn mt
hospital, who having no relat res
near enough to occupy on their &C.
count pensionable status are
pensioned from in
sanity, the pension money being
paid quarterly to guardian. The
inmate at last dying, leaving in the
hands of the guardian large sum of
pension money, contributing personal
estate, which goes perhaps to some
heir of the guardian and whom the
pension system is not intended,
neither directly nor indirectly, to pro-
vide in compliance with the provision
Of various pension laws. On June 80,
1892, there were borne on the pension
rolls the names of 856,O7S pensioners,
LS9, 982 more than an preceding fiscal
year and 457, $50 more than on June
30, 1887.

COTTON CIRCULAR.
McElroy Gilbert on the Condition Of
the Market.

McElroy Gilbert on the Condition
the Market.
, New ORLEANS, Nov. 23.-McElroy
& Gilbert say:
Futures-Liverpool failed utterly tc
meet the expectations of those who
looked for big squirt as the result OF
the publication in full OF Mr.. Neills
estimate reducing his previous figure
of the probable yield to 6,5OO,O 900 bales
That market failed to recover the de-
cline shown at the opening and finally
closed barely steady at 4 to 5'64 less
on the day.
Spot sales were 10000 at unchanged
prices. Effect of this disappointment
was the natural one, and the one
which we foreshadowed yesterday,
viz, those who bought in antici-
patton of good squirt today
| were most liberal sellers and
prices here declined IA points from
Yesterdays figures. New York did
not show as much weakness as our
market for the reason that we have
for some time past been above parity
with it. Since the decline was estab-
lished it would show that some Or
ganization has been affected among
the leading bulls for their constant
buying has been the feature CT the
day and the squirt during the last
half hour in New York made that
market close strong at 10 points above
yesterday and is generally thought to
be their work. The same tactics were
pursued but at the closing there were
liberal offerings by the longs taking
in profits but nevertheless we close
steady at eight points higher
than yesterday. 1t was generally
thought our spot market would
be higher, but exporters have not
been at all active today, and sales
aggregate $500 bales on the spot and
5000 to arrive at same price as yester-
day. The general impression pre-
walls this evening that as both New
Orleans and New York will be closed
tomorrow holiday the clique which
seems to have been formed may buy
heavily in Liverpool tomorrow and
persue the same course as we followed
here and in New York today.
Receipts at interior towns for the
half week show falling of about 16
per cent from last years port receipts
and tomorrow are likely to exceed the
total last year. New Orleans is ex-
pecting $4,000 against 5000 here
and $4,000 at all ports.
1t is rumored this afternoon that
Messrs. Latham, Alexander q Co. of
New York will issue an estimate to-
morrow, putting the crop at 5000, 900.
1t may be remembered that in our re-
port of Oct. 10 we gave their first esti-
mate of this year 100000 and two
days later, on Oct. Is, they revised
their estimate of 1885, 900 to Z 800, 600.
Their present figure, if report is true,
is 100000. The situation tonight APP
pears to be that this with receipts
increasing at ports and interior a half
in the advance would be inevitable,
but if the full combination has been
formed to carry prices higher, natural
influences cannot be expected to
govern.
