procession to the Southern Athletic Club.
Delaney and Brady We're confident and
happy as they chatted about the fight.
Iney cannot see how they can lose.
w ny, Gorbett is III perfect FORM" said
Delaney. There will be surprise for
the big fellow tomorrow evening, mark
my word. / have been in the business a
great many years and I have never had
the confidence before in a fight that have
now.
"Corbett weighs 1S5 pounds, I guess,
but we do not bother with the scales. His
Weights not troubling us. Wait till you
see him hit. He can hit harder than
Sullivan. May be 1t is strange to you to
hear me say that, but l know it to be
true. Jim is confident thst he will win,
and Will be as brave as lion"
At the club COrbett was Immediately
shown into dressing room. He did not
mind the crowd in the least, but peeled off
his clothes and stood up and showed his
fine form.
The man is in superb trim, and yet it is
likely that those who will see him for the
first time in the ring tomorrow evening
Will be disappointed when his slight
build is compared with Sullivan's mass
i've body.
He is strongly built, and his back is a
mass of graceful muscles There is not
from his feet to his round face.
Corbett was shown into the bathroom as
preliminary TO a swim in the immense
natatOrium. Instructor Aleck Morris
helped him to rid himself of the dust
stains of his long journey.
Then he donned d pair of trunks and
got down into the tank, where the water
was only five feet deep. Corbett swims,
but not expertly. He did not venture to
go in over his head until he was in the
water for awhile.
When the swim was over he returned
to the dressing-rOom. Here the water
was wiped from him, and then he spread
himself at length on a lounge, while
Dillon and Delaney rubbed him down.
Ali the while he chatted with those W no
pressed around him, never once respond
ing curtly.
You have no idea what confidence
comes to me from my being in this club"
he SAID, remembering that it was here
that he had bested kilrain.
Corbett was taken over to a residence
IN the nelghborhOod, where he is to re-
main till the fight. An excellent break
fast had been prepared for him and he
ate 1t with relish. Then he went to bed

currency. There are many who will say
1t was worth the cost of the war to bring
about so suspicious a result to capital and
labor. Prior to the war we had the worst
currency system OF any enlightened ma
ton - banks thoroughly Irresponsible
They existed by thousands throughout
the United States. Whenever one of
them failed the result was large loss and
great distress among the people. No one
was responsible for the bills, and they
were generally found scattered in the
pockets of the laboring man, to whom
tEey were total loss, without any re-
demption whatever.
or State banks 1t is often truly said they
have caused their debts to measure their
profits. They caused in the aggregate
the loss OF hundreds of millions of dol
lars among the poor. Since the close of
the war all this has been different.
Every paper dollar that circulates among
the people has the United States behind
II as guarantee. All banks that exist
are under control OF The National Govern
ment, and II they fail as financial institu-
tons the Government takes care that
their bllls shall be paid by the securities
deposited In Government vaults Under
these circumstances it is a matter not of
extraordinary surprise that Democratic
Conventions should deliberately pass
resolutions for the revival Of State banks.

rIed out, would be tc cheat the poor man
out Of his daily bread. II State banks be
adopted and their cisculation attain large
issue, no device could be more deadly for
the deception and despoilment of all com
merciai and laboring classes. How the
Democratic Convention came to make
such a declaration, who was it's author,
what intelligent purpose was in it, will
remain mystery. Iheard the argument
adduced that we would keep money at
home if State banks were instituted, but
we should keep it at home, because it
would be so worthless nobody would
take it abroad.
Were the system of State banks re-
vlVed we would again have discounts at
the State lines, large charges for drafts on
financial centers, and general suspicion
of every bill offered in payment, with
liquidation every few years that would
be destructive loss to innocent holders
OF bills and a corresponding profit to
parties owning banks.
The three issues which | have given
are issues on which | would arraign the
democratic party. l would not multiply
the issues, or be diverted by our opponents
from steadtast adherence to and con-
slant presentation of these questions be-
fore the people until every voter is made

weighty significance. Very sincerely

VICTORIA Oh. c., Sept. 6.-The story of
Julius Germand, the Hungarian Social
ist, whose escape from Siberia and ar
rival here was announced Sunday, was
made public to-day. Germand's story
was obtained through Count De Lofatych,
distinguished scientist and ardent SYM
pathizer with the reformers of the Old
World Governments, but it makes no
reference to the fact that Germand has
a carefully-prepared map of many ST.
berian prisons, which viii be forwarded
to headquarters for possible use.
Germand was born i'll Hungary, 81
years ago, and after learning the tanners
trade, travelled through Europe. He
went to st. Petersburg, and there became
acquainted with the students and me-
chanics' clubs. He sympathized with
their ideas, and soon became a leader in
their organizations.
Says Germand: II was at various
times intrusted with secret messages to
carry to France, Switzerland and Aus
tralia, and was on my way to Vienna
with papers to Alfred Pierre, when an
attempt was made to kill Gar Alexander
II. at koenigsburg. | was arrested by
Prussian police and sent back TO st.
Petersburg. The authorities could learn
nothing from me, as my papers were
written in cipher, and my associates
were not arrested.
From st. Petersburg, with others, l
was sent to Wilma. They could prove
nothing against me, but [ was kept
close prisoner for eleven months, without
trial Of any kind, and was finally ban
ished to Siberia for life. l tried to escape
on the road between TOmsk and Yakutsh,
but was caught and logged, and the rest
Of the way L was kept in irons. / was
chained to Mankiewitehat, political
prisoner, and our destination was in a
wilderness away behind Yakutah, 1000
versts from the mouth of the Lena, and
not far from the spot where the Jeanette
expedition landed.
Il lodged there with Manyakout who
saved the Jeanette people, and our party
of eXiles was then broken up. The
people who lived there gave me money
and sent me up the river. l was an exile,
not prisoner and could 90 as | pleased
so long as l made no effort to leave the
country. l was an exile under surveil-
lance for life.
''At Yakutsk met a Polish gentIemans
who suggested 20 me how 1 might gSSC
away. HIS advice was to go to work in
the placer mines from river to river, so
that L might gradually get nearer to the
sea. l took this advice, and for many
months worked so, wandering over
steppes. From place to place made my
way until | was employed in driving
cattle toward the Amdor, and finally
reached Blagovestshensk. There l met
an officer named Spravurk. who be-
befriended me and bought the gold [ had
washed from the streams. He gave me
paper money and forwarded me to Nipo-
lish, only 100 versts from Vladivostock.
lie also procured me papers with which
l safely passed the officers there, and |
was taken by steamer to Koheand, Yo-
kohama, and now | am here"

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 6.-While SuIli-

ing Frank Moran, who has share in the
Sullivan stakes, was questioned as to the
Sullivan view OF the Corbett claim that
the champion must dress no higher than
the navel in the fight.

Phil. Casey has determined to work
Sullivan again tomorrow morning,
which will doubtless be the last before
