James J. Corbett and bis manager. VIM.
A. Brady, met there to arrange with
Dominica McCaffrey. boxing instructor
OF the Manhattan Athletic club, for a
match IN the manly art of self.defense.
Corbett became SO enraged at the repre-
sentative OF the Manhattan man that he
stated in the NEST emphatic language
that II his would-he antagonist did not
stop talking. he would throw bim out of
the window. Captain Van Setback, of
the Manhattan club, was McCafrey's
advisor. The upehot of il all was that
no match was arranged, and the two
principals separated with much bad
blood between them.
Mr.. McOafrey, in conversation
later, declared that Corbett had failed
to make good his proposition to stop
him in four rounds for purse OF $4,000.
That was the original proposition, and
tire 'bigs 'un" had simply backed down
when he appeared ready to accept the
proposition for four-round 90. on the
terms mentioned at the Manhattan
Athletic club house. He said. that when
Corbett threatened to throw him out of
the window, he told him that he had
better try it; that he was ready to de-
fend himself.
The scene was very dramatic one,
and it looked at one time as If the four
rounds might be fought out on the spot,
dispensing with the preliminary ar
rangements and purse.
Corbett said he proposed to name the
match IN the place there was the most
money, either before any liberal athletic
club, or in the Manhattan Athletic club
house. He said he would agree to the
terms to fight and stop his man in that
time for purse of $1,000, but he wished
to have the decision in case he had the
beet Of it in four rounds, whether he
stopped McCaffrey or not. In other
words, he would donate $4,000 to Nc
Caffrey in case he did not knock him
out in four rounds, but asked that
purse of $4,000 be made up for the man
who got the better Of the fight, whether
Knockout or not. This McCaffrey
would not listen TO. He insisted on
fighting in the Manhattan Athletic club,
and that it should be knock-o in
four rounds or nothing.

By the Associated Press.l
WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-The following
dispatch has been received at the state
department, from the United States con-
sui at Glasgow: "There is cholera
outbreak here among Russian emigrants
for America"
The consul at Liverpool cables as fol-
lows "Cholera imminent; strongly
urge medical inspection OF immigrants
under consular direction, with official
disinfection.
Acting Secretary Spaulding, of the
treasury department, today eaid he be-
lieved every precautionary measure that
could be taken to prevent the admission
of cholera into the United States had
been taken. New suggestions on the
subject that might present themselves
would have the careful consideration of
the department..
Under date of August oath, the for
eign minister cent to the secretary OF
state report announcing the results
of the investigation commenced by
the board of health concerning
the recent epidemic of cholera in
the department. Of the Seine. France.
The note says it is manifest that the
epidemic is not imported cholera; that
the cases examined were solely due to
the use of Seine water of bad quality,
and at preient the sanitary situation
has improved to such degree that all
danger may be considered to be averted.
The report, says the minister, makes it
clear that none of the French ports
have shown, nor show single case Of
cholera,

The Sirictest Quarantine Regulations
Being Enforced.
New YoRK, Aug. pa meeting be-
tween Health Ofieer Jenkins and the
representatives OF all the foreign steam
ship lines was held this afternoon.
Health Officer Jenkins read orders from
the board OF health, providing that all
vessels arriving from ports injected with
cholera, and those carrying passengers
from infected districts, shall be put in
quarantine from two to five days before
being allowed to proceed to the docks.
Before leaving quarantine, vessels shall
have received Thorough fumigation.
The companies agreed to the orders
without dissent. and will do all in their
power to assist the board.
Several steamships arrived here this
morning and were detained at quaran
tine for close inspection and fumigation
of the baggage. They all had steerage
passengers. All the passengers sub
mitted to searching investigation, and
the vessels, baggage and mails were dis
infected. No evidence of cholera was
found among the passengers.
The report that cholera has broken
out in Havana decided the quarantine
officials to be more careful about steam
ships coming from that port. The re-
port, however, is not believed to be
true.
Postmaster Van Cott today sent
communication to the health depart
ment stating, in view of the prevalence
of cholera at ports from which mails are
received, that such mails should be dis
infected. The postoffice authorities
have no appliances or men to do the
work, and the postmaster requests the
health department to assign men to
make the necessary disinfection.
Commissioner Gilroy, of the depart
ment of public works, issued an elabor-
ate series of instructions to the heads of
the departments under him, today, con-
cerning the precautions to be taken to
prevent the spread of cholera, in case it
passes quarantine.
Anson Potzel, the Austrian, who yes
terday was taken to the hospital suffer
ling from indications of cholera, is all
right today. 1t was only cholera NOR
bus.

CORBETT's EXHIBITION.
Pompadour Jim Shows OF His ShapeIy
Limbs and Muscles.


New York, Aug. 29.-Corbett showed
his shapely limbs and muscles to a
crowd of 5000 admirers at Madison
Square garden this evening. The crowd
was good .natured and cheerfully ac-
cepted the slightest entertainment
afforded them, until Corbett appeared.
There were some preliminary bouts to
whet the appetltes of the audience. 1t
was :Q5 when Steve O'Donnell, mas
ter of ceremonies, introduced Corbett,
amid great cheers. He was accompa-
MED by John McVay of Philadelphia,
who was to oppose him. The young
Californian walked from his dressing
quarters to the ring, while cheer after
cheer went up. He sprang lightly up
the steps and bowed to the assembled
multitude.
Corbett wore green stockings, white
pants and green belt. Before he had
taken his seat three cheers we're given
for him. Then low criticisms on the
Californian's condition were heard. In
deed. he did not look as if much were
the matter with him.
There was pretty exhibition of box
ing between Corbett and McVay. Nc
Way, however, was too beefy and alto.
gether too slow for the star of the even.
ing. Things livened up more in the
bout between Corbett and his boxing
partner, Jim DAILY, Though DAILY is not
heavy enough for Corbett, there was
some pretty quick fighting, and Corbeti
had q chance to show his nimbleness
His remarkably quick and clean science
urged the spectators up to the shouting
point. Corbett made host of friends
by his clever methods and his evident
splendid condition.

the American medical students here to
assist as nurses in the event that chol-
era should become epidemic here.
The authorities announced this morn
ing that a woman who had just arrived
from Hamburg died here of Asiatic
cholera.
Gases Of cholera are reported in Fer
yer, near Magdeburg, and Striegert, in
Mecklenburg. In both places the dis
ease was imported from Hamburg.
A dispatch from Halle, in Prussian
Saxony, states that two cases of cholera
have occurred in that city. One patient
went to Halle from Hamburg.
The report that a woman, who had
just arrived here from Hamburg, died
from Asiatic cholera, proves to be incor-
rect. 1t seems that she is now recover
ing from her illness, whatever it was.
LONDON, Aug. 29.-The Berlin corre-
spondent OF the News says: Professor
Koch has issued warning against over
much watering of the streets; humidity,
he claims, favors the spread of hacilli,
and rapid consumption of water pre-
vents effective filtration at the water
worke.
DASSp cOhhiOoib6 lCPOi 10 uo W thO ga
tent Of the epidemic in Hamburg have
been published. Hamburgers are treated
like lepers elsewhere in Germany. Ho-
tel doors are shut in their faces, and it is
impossible for them to obtain lodgings.
Many of them have been known to
alight from trains few stations before
reaching Berlin, and to come into the
city by local trains, in order to avoid in
spection.
Suspected caseso OF cholera are reported
at Halle and Leipzig, but the presence
Of the disease in these places has not
been officially confirmed.
BREMEN, Aug. 20. Thirteen cholera
patients have been admitted to the hos
pital here. Eight were certified as
Asiatic cholera. One died.
New YORK, Aug. 29.-Notwithstand-
ing dispatches from Bremen reporting
several cases of cholera, some of them Of
the Aeiatic type, the agents of the North
German Lloyd steamship line cay they
have dispatches saying the authorities
OF Bremen deny that there is single
case of Asiatic cholere there.

A Vsritt ty of Conflicting Reports About
the Plague In Germany.
HAMBURG, Aug. 29.-Oficial cholera
STATISTICS place the number OF new cases
of the disease reported on Saturday at
435, and the number of deaths at las I;
on Sunday and up to noon today, 148
new cases and 72 deaths are reported.
The disease appears to be abating in
several quarters of the city. There was
much less demand for ambulances DUR
ing the night. The city yesterday was
strikingly quiet. So small has become
traffic on the tramways, that the COM
panieH are restricting the service.
In Altoona " new cases of cholera and
33 deaths from the disease were reported
from noon Saturday up to noon today.
Owing to the outbreak of the disease
in the prison, minor offenders, to the
number of 100, have been released.
The decrease in the disease in Ham
burg, and in Altoona, is most noticeable
since midnight last night.
Isolated cases are reported from Schiff-
beck, Bergedorff, Elmshorn, and Ueter-
sen, suburbs of Hamburg. At Wands-
beck, three miles northeast of Hamburg,
a favorite summer resort of merchants
of the city, there were nine cases OF the
disease and five deaths up to Saturday
evening.
BERLIN, Aug. 29.-Fifteen cases OF
cholera are reported tonight, but none
of these of the Asiatic type. In the die
tricts of the city inhabited by working
people, energetic measures are being
taken to keep them cleansed and disin-
fected. Great complaints are being
made ss to the laxity of the supervision
exercised over travellers arriving here
from Hamburg.

POLITICAL ANIMOSITY
WAS UNDoUBTEDLE THE CAUSE OF
M'wHIRTEfSs DEATH,
Citizens OF Fresno Greatly Excited Over
the Murder-SI0,OO0O offered for
the Arrest and Conviction
of the a ssassing.

FRESNO, Cal, Aug 29.-Closer Inquiry
into the circumstances surrounding the
death of L. B. McWhirter, is believed
to dispose completely of the burglary
theory. Unless good proof can be
shown that he bad deadly private
enemy, the conclusion is general that
his death was the result of the political
anlmositie6 he had aroused. The prepa-
ratlons for the crime were made in the
most bold and careless manner. There
is no doubt that there were two
assaEslns. They made as much
noise as possible without arousing
the whole neighborhood, to attract the
attention of the inmates OF the bouse.
They knocked out two big board fence
rails with a hammer, and, judging from
the marks, must have struck some hard
blows. One of the clubs found had a
piece of clothes line tied around it, in
order to better fasten it. A nail was
driven through the line into the wood.
Two pistols were found, both Colts, of
Al callber. One was improved, and be-
longed to McWhirter; the other was old
style, and belonged to the assassin. The
latter had the number scratched out
McWhirter's life was insured for
100000, nearly all in his wife's name.
There is great excitement here over the
affair, and every attempt is being made
to apprehend the murderers.
Citizens met this afternoon and con-
tributed $4,000 to be paid for the ar
rest and conviction OF the assaseins.
There was rumor that there was a
man arrested this evening, with a
wound in the hand. This was denied at
the shsritf's office. Feeling is very high,
and II the assassins are caught, it is
possible an attempt to lynch them will
be made. A number of persons who
were incautious enough to exult at Nc
Whirter's death, are being closely
watched.

Change OF Opinion in the Lizzie Bor
den Case.

den Case.
FALL RIVER, Mass, Aug. 29.-The
testimony brought out in the Lizzie
Borden hearing, today, caused change
of opinion among her friends, who here
tofore stoutly maintained her innocence.
They consider the strongest evidence
against her to be that of Mrs. Addie
Churchill, a neighbor, whom she has
known and loved since childhood. Mrs.
Churchill stated positively that Mrs.
borden's room door was open when she
and Bridget Sullivan first discovered the
body OF the murdered woman. 1t has
already been stated that Lizzie Borden
was IN the hallway, near the open door,
when Bridget Sullivan opened the
front door, at 1. .35 O'Clock.
Again, Mrs. Churchill stated posi-
lively that Lizzie told her Mrs.
Borden had received note to call on q
sick friend, but it has not yet been
proven that any person in the city or
elsewhere sent such note, or that Mrs.
Borden left the house at any time DUR
ing the day. Like all the rest of the
witnesses for the government, she failed
to lind any traces of blood on Miss Liz
zie's clothing or person. During the
testimony the prisoner bit her lip,
flushed, and bent toward Attorney
Adams. Tee testimony also of E. IL.
Pence, drug clerk, Frank Kilroy. a
Harvard medical student, and Fred
Hart, an assistant drug clerk, all Of
whom were in Smiths drug store when
Lizzie was there, seems very damaging
to the defendant.
