CHICAGO, June 19-"If Charley Mitchell
does not sign articles Of agreement within six
weeks to fight me either in one place or another
Corbett last night.
ut may surprise the public to know that the
negotiations in their present form are binding
on neither side, although we both have our
money up. The fact of the matter is" contin-
ued the champion, I've are tired Of waiting for
Mitchell to settle definitely where he will fight
signed articles to fight him before the Coney
Island Athletic Club for a purse Of $40, 800 just
as he was leaving this country for England Ho
left the entire matter in the hands Of Lawyer
Hummel Of New York, who cablcd to Mitchell.
Of the fact. The answer came that all was sat
isfactory, but later cable received by Mr..
Hummel stating that Mitchell had decided to
wait until he returned to this country before he
signed.
"No, can't say that doubt that he will meet
me, but we will not continue the match In its
present one-sided form. I decided today to
give Charley six weeks time to put his signature
where mine Is that length Of time being ample
for him to comply. We can't tell why he Is
holding back, possibly it being because he
thinks we can do better elsewhere. On that
point will say that although have agreed to
contest at Coney Island, such agreement can't
be made binding without Mitchells signature.
1t is only natural thatwe look for the best purse
| inducements.
If at the end Of six weeks Mitchell does not
sign articles will issue challenge to the world.
Peter jackson preferred. and post substantial
forfeit to fight for SI0, 900 side and the cham.

Rates TO the Fair.

To the Editor o! The Evening Sta::
Last evening I noticed in THf STAR some
thing about visiting the worlds fair from this
and neishboring cities.
1t Is too true thrt very many people of
limited means. and most people OF limited
means, would visit the worlds fair If the fare
for round trip was down to S1S or 800 The
people are holding off. thinking the
fare will come down to that amount.
They are so confident the fare will come down
that they will wait till the latter part Of sum-
mer before going TO Chicago. if no reductions
are made. and then many will not go at all
So far very few people from Washington
have visited the fair.
You can easily find ont the desires of the
people III the matter by asking Jour neighbors
and friends if they are going to the fair.
\ re out of ten will tell YOU they arc
going when the fare is down 10 a reasonable
rate Shouid the fare not come down Washing
ton will not have been well represented Mt the
greatest Of worlds fairs ever held, but, on the
other hand, thonld the railroad fare come down
to one fare for the round trip there is hardly 4
house in the city but would send It's quota S.

THE VICTORIOUS VALKYRIE.
Lord Dunraven's Yacht Again Comes in
First.

Lord Dunraven's Yacht Again Comes in
First.
Tho regatta Of the Royal Yacht Club was held
Saturday over the usual course, off the Isle OF
Wight. There was good breeze from the
east, and the yachts made pretty picture as
they started off with their huge mainsails
bellying to the wind.
Lord Dunraven's Valkyrie took part in the
race and again showed that Americans will
find in her dangerous competitor for the
Americas cup.
Besides the Valkyrie the Britannia. the
Prince Of Wales's yacht; the Satanita, owned by
Mr. A. d. Clarke; the Calluna, owned by Mr..
p. Donaldson. and the Iverna, owned by Mr.. j.
jameson, sailed in the race.
The leading yachts finished the first round,
which was to be eastward. in the following
order, their official finishing time being APP
pended: Vslkyrie, 4.42 50; Britannia. l. 80;
Satanita, 1893. The Calluna and Iverna fin
shed SO far astern that they were practically
out of the race.
The light ensterly wind held throughout
the race. The Calluna was the first to cross
the line, but the advantage thus gained was
lost almost Immediately after by her running
ashore on Carshot Spit where she remained
for fully fifteen minutes
The tide running strong when tho
second round to the westward was started.
There was little change in the positions in
which the boats crossed the line except that
the Calunn passed the Iverna. The Cal!una
has no chance OF winning the prize, however.
