WASHINGTON, D. c., January 9.-In the
House the District OF Columbia appropria-
tion bill was passed this morning, then an
hour was consumed in the consideration Of
a bill to promote the efficiency Of the mi
htia. But there was no determination.
The remainder Of the day was devoted to
the consideration of a bill permitting The

terly opposed, aud after a three hours

CHICAGO. January 9.-Jim Corbett and
Joe Goddard came together In the looDy
of the Grand Pacific Hotel this evening.
The meeting resulted in lively and
animated scene.
The whole thing was brought about by
Goddard's offering verbal challenge 10
"Gentlemau jim"
Goddard, accompanied BY Billy Madden,
was observed about the Grand Pacific Tor
several hours. At 6 O'Clock when Coroett
en- ntered, accompanied by his brother, GOD
dard at once caught the eye OF the cham
pion. linn bowed and Goddard arose and
returned the bow. Then he approached
Corhett and said: 81 want you TO night
me-"
"Great Scottln exclaimed Corbett,
measuring his would be antagonist from
his toes TO his head. There was that IN
the look which produced a tit OF laughter
among the audience.
Goddard became visibly pale with
anger and modification.
"Why." continued Corbett "should you
offer to fight mel You must know that
you are unworthy Of consideration until
you have fought and whipped two men
Jackson and Mitchell. l am champion and
| shall not accept challenge from the
representative Of any nation except ne be
the declared champion of that nation
"You are not champlon-any one coulu

II will not hear one word said against
Sullivan retorted Cor0ett with growing
warmth. For years he held the cham
pionship. He whipped all comers, and re-
tained the championship for America. No
Epeiishman and no Australian ever proved
himself his equal"
This magnanimous tribrte to the de-
throned king stirred the feeling OF the
crowd TO its depths.
"You claim TO represent America-why
cannot you fight me!" shouted Goddard, his
voice growing husky with passion.
Il represent America, and for that very
reason should be a chump il l were 10
accept your impudent challenge. Go and
win your spurs as others have, before you
try 70 enter into competition wlth men OF

the best interests of my country so far as
the prize ring is concerned"
"What do you propose to doV" asked
Goddard, amid the yells OF the crowd at
this reply.
II propose to fight Mitchell first, II he
will give me the opportunity. After him
comes jackson the champion OF Australia
Then IL you have anything TO say II
will be your turn. You are only

cles on the day that you sign yours

up TO show my good faith in the natter
Goddard grew restive, he murmured
something about being the best man and
Corbett fired parting shot.
O"You acknowledge" he said, "that Jack
sou is the Australian champion; well, so
and lick hsm before you think Of approach
ing me-"
Then Corbett turned away leaving God
dard standing in the lobby. Neither man
cared TO talk Of the incident after it was
over.

Mn Fnrther E1amine McComas.

WASHINGTON, d. c., January 9.-Contra-
ry TO expectation, the Senate Judiciary
Committee to-day failed to order fayora-
bic report upon the McComas nomination.
Saturday il was supposed that every obsta-
Gle to a report had been removed and the
members of the committee were prepared
to act finally in the case to-day. But over
Sunday the opposition was renewed and
when the committee met to-day It's atten-
tion was called to allegations that the Dis
trict Judiciary had been connected in Off
cial capacity with the National Investment
Company. AS the president of this insti
tuition has recently been arrested upon
charge of gambling and using other fraud
ulent devices to cheat and defraud people,
the committee. which is always extremely
punctilious in its examinations of the char
acter Of Judicial nominees, decided that il
would look into the connection OF Mr.. Nc
COmaS with this investment company.
Consequently action on the nomination
will probably be deferred for another week.
