News from Biloxi today is to the eff
feet that Dixon continues his training
in a quiet way, and, as far as condition
is concerned, no pugtliSt ever entered
the ring i'll better shape than he will be
in Tuesday night. He will probably

treatment in the South.
Jack Sicily is In prime condition and

There is little OF no change in the
betting since yesterday.

cent. stated today that in all probability
the Sullivan special would arrive at
O'Clock tomorrow morning. Later, how
ever, it was learned that it would in all
Likelihood arrive at a much earlier hour.
Ed Ihanrnauer, of tn e After Dark''
company was in the city.and received a
dispatch informing him that the Corbett

watered at Ludlow, across the
river from Cincinnati, and this
caused a delay of an hour. the time
having been altered 50 as to run the
special behind the fast express, which
will extend the time of the arrival of
the train in New Orleans to Sunday
forenoon. Slow time was made. A
monstrouS compound locomotive with
six drivers had been hitched to the
Sullivan train at Cincinnati, so that no
trouble should be had getting over the
mountains on the way. A baggage car
satisfactory to Sullivan and his trainer
was put OIL the train at Cincinnati.
The Sullivan car from tine Sullivan
special at Oakdale was detached to
avoid the-possible detention in Tennes-
see of Sullivan's hacker, Charles John
son. There is a warrant still alive
against johnson. being a legacy of the
Sulllvan-kllraln fight two years ago.
While there was no cause for excessive
apprehension, it was deemed wise by
Johnson not to go through the state of
Tennessee with a brass band, hence
the early morning detachment of Sulll-
vans car in which johnson travels at
the little station of Oakdale at 6 o'clock
this morning. The two sections of the
train We're not far separated at any
time, however, The main section trav-
eled through Chattanooga by the usual
tracks, stopping at the depot there,
while Sullivan's car, with johnson
aboard, Skirted through the freight
yards on the edge of the city.
A small crowd was at the station as
the main section of the train stopped in
Chattanooga. They were disappointed
at not finding the champion aboard, and
few, il any, knew the champion was at
tho fImn no 81 mo rr,r +ID
OF the town. Indeed few, if any,, OF the
passengers on the main section knew
what had become of Sullivan and his
party until the two sections were re-
united at Morganvllle, which is a little
station on the Queen & Crescent road,
just south of the Tennessee border.
Meanwhile Sullivan had been awak-
ened and went to the baggage car with
his trainers about 7:30 O'clock. There
he tossed the five-puund leather bag
twenty minutes and then skipped the
rope 800 times This exercise, the first
since Thursday, brought out a profuse
Precipitation.
The rubbing down followed, and then
Sullivan, with a sponge and bucket of
ice watel, administered to himself a
shower bath. IL I'm not stuck on this
now l can tell you" he said, as the
first dash of the cold water flowed down
his back and chest. His trainers, about
him in a circle to keep him from being
harmed by the jolting of the car,
laughed, and so did the champion. He
was dried and dressed. Breakfast was
then served at M%organville to the cham
pien and others by the railroad company.
Before his lunch Sullivan was again
taken into the baggage car and put
through his exercise of ball tossing and
rope skipping. He was then rubbed
down and was ready for dinner.
While Sullivan was being rubbed he
was observed by q man who saw him
fight Ryan. and who has not since then
seen Sullivan stripped. He was asked
his impression as to the champions
condition. He is not the same
appearing man nov as he was then"
was the reply. He has fat not only on

| pugilist knocked the wind out of it. and
Immediately the cry went up: 'Sulli-
vans wind is gomez" Another bag was
fixed up and in a few minutes
this met the same fate and
also collapsed. Corbett hen invited
the friends into the hand ball court and
for half an hour he wreStled with Nc
Vey, the heavyweight. AT the cOnclu-
sion of the wrestling McVey was
thoroughly wet with perspiration. while
COrbett was as cool as a cucumber.
He turned to the crowd. bid them a
hearty adieu and thanked them all for
their many kind words and good
wishes. 81 assure you," we're his final
words, that Sullivan will never lick

Immediately entered the Pullman

had been reserved to convey them to New
Orleans. Here he was joined by Sam
Thall, Joseph P. Harris and other
friends who had preceded him. Corbett
said to a representative of the Asso-
ciated Press that he ever felt better IN
his life. A telegram was received late
this afternoon from Parson Davies at
New York, saying that he would arrive
at 1885 tonight, and would accompany
COrbett to New Orleans.
Corbett was advertised in the morn
ing papers here to appear at Albaugh's
opera house this evening in a sparring
exhibition with his trainer. Although
strongly protesting against 1t he was
finally prevailed upon to make his APP
pearance upon the stage. He was

with which he was received. No exhi-

AsBURY PARK, N. j.. Sept. 3.-Cor-
bett is off. He left his training quarters
at Loeb Arbour, n. j., at precisely 1
O'Clock, and accompanied by the Tren-
ton band and about a thousand people,
rode to Asbury Park station. where he
awaited the arrival of Pennsylvania
train No. 1877, scheduled to leave at l:23.
Upon COrbett's arrival at the station
all was confusion. The thousands of
spectators who had gathered at the sta
ton to give the big Californian a ''send
OFF, beSieged him from all sides to grasp
his hand and bid him good by and good
luck, COrbett having to use both hands,
so great was the crowd of well-wishers.
AS soon as the train slowed up at the
station Corbett and Manager Brady en-
tered the rear car, followed by the rest
of the party. They had hardly been
seated when IL of Corbett's friends
rushed to the window and called out:
"F0r Gods sake, Jim, get in the other
car. This one is No. S13, and that will
never do" Manager Brady leaped on
to the platform, looked at the number
on the side of the car and rushed back
and told COrbett to get into the forward
car. The change was instantly made.
There was an abundance of rice and

his abdominal sides. but on his back
and arms. Sullivan's buttocks are also
fieshy, and that portion of the body
tightens-up in training as quick, if not
quicker, than any other part. If the
buttocks have not frightened up it is
safe to conclude there is fat else where
on the body. Sullivan shows his years,
too, more than l had expected to find
them"
There were several stoppages by tile
Sullivan special during the afternoon
travel southwark of Birmingham. The
dusty, weary pilgrims at each halt vent
out of the cars to stretch their cramped
limbs. Sullivan took no exercise be-
fore supper this evening, which vas
served to him at Meridian, which was
reached at Ills o'clock.
NATTIESBURG, Miss, Sept. 4, l a. NJ.
The champion went to sleep about IL
o'clock. He is feeling we'll physically
and has not the slightest notion that it
will be possible for Corbett to defeat
him. His calm and complacent conf
dence in himself is mistaken. The
train of the champion made a brief stop
here and has rome on southwark. 1t
will probably arrive in New Orleans

New ORLEANS, Sept. 3.-"He looked
like he had lost his best friend'' when
Billy has a fight on. That is the kind
of an expression that Kennedy custom
arily wears. But it was even more seri-
Gus today than usual. Kennedy eX-
planned that the reason was that the
Streator people came down here with
their Chicago brethren willing to invest
quite heavily on Niger At ven money,
or at odds in their favor. When they
got here they discovered that the other
people were asking for the long end.
Kennedy has not made a bet since he
has been here, and will probably not
n less there is a change in the figures,
which he thinks ought to be even. 1t
is an even match fer an even purse and
the two men have already fought a
draw. McAuliffe and his friends have
llways claimed the Williamsburger to
De by long odds the
Best Man in His Class.
and say he is in good condition. Why
therefore, says Kennedy, ought we to
give the other people the advantage
when it comes down to a question of
putting up money OF the contest? That
was the general query that swept
through st. Charles street this evening.
Eddy Niger came down town with
Kennedy this evening. They had left
Billy at his temporary quarters and

day than most men do in a week when
he is not training, and it is hard for him
to let go.
Yesterday while doing his work he
drank frequently from an earthen jar,
saying the contents was iced tea, but
that was only a bluff, for your reporter

MRS. HAMMOND INTERPosED,

And the ThomasyiIle Lawyer Will Not En-
ter the Congressional Race.
Capt. w. II. Hammond, of Thomas
vile, will not be a candidate for congress.
His name has frequently been mentioned
by the press and public generally since
the campaign has been on. A commit
tee composed of three of Albany's lead
ing citizens, J. w. Walters, c. W. Jones
and b. L. Weston, waited upon Capt
Hammond a his home and conveyed to
him the request of the Dougherty county
democratic club to enter the race. The
gentlemen were at Capt. HammoRd's un-
til a late hour, urging him to accept.
Capt Hammond took the matter under
consideration and yesterday morning
gave his answer 1t was unfayorable.
Capt. Hammond is one of the bravest
men in the district, and it will be great
disappointment that his friends receive
his decree. 1t is understood that Mrs.
Hammond used her influence against her
husband entering the campaign. She
thought that his physical condition
would not permit it,
