Mayor Boody Says He Will Not Allow the
MITCHELL Corbett Fight at Coney Island.
New YoRK, Oct. 10 Mayor Body, Of
Brooklyn, to-day gave it out that he
would not permit the prize fight be-
tween jim Corbett and Charley Mitchell
to take place at Coney Island. District
Attorney Ridgeway ia also reported to
have said that the Offering Of u
purse by the Coney Island Ath-
letic Club was more or less OF a
blulE, to lind out how the people OF
Brooklyn and Kings county would
stand it, and the tolerance of prize
fight-that is, an international prize
fight,-would never be considered.
The sporting men OF New York do not
actually laugh out loud at these Cam
paign documents" butsome of them do
say that the bluff is on the part OF the
politicians.
Sheriff Courtney when asked ii it was
true that the fight would not take
place, said: "No, there will be no
fight. What Mayor Boody says is per-
fectiy true and the fight cannot come
off,"
PrrrsBuRou, Oct. 19-Charlie Nit
chell, who is now in this city, was very
angry when informed by the represen-
tative OF the Associated Press that
Mayor Boody, OF Brooklyn, had de-
cided that the fight between
Corbett and himself could not
take place at Coney Island. 1t was the
first definite intimation that the Eng
lish pugilist had received Of the in
tended interference by the Brooklyn
authorities, and he at once launched
out into n bitter denunciation of the
New York ministers, whom he claimed
were responsible for Mayor BoodY's
action.
He would prefer to have the contest
in New Orleans or San Francisco. but,
if this cannot be arranged, he will de-
mand that Corbett 90 out OF the coun-
try with him and fight for the $4,000
side. He had conceded everything else
and would insist upon this.
AsBURY PARK, n. j. Oct. l9.-Pugllist
James j. Corbett tonight received word
that Kings county officials at special
meeting had decided to stop the pro-
posed fight between himself and
Mitchell at Coney Island.
When seen tonight Corbett said that
he proposed going on with his daily
training as heretofore and ii the fight
did not come of it would be no fault OF
his. Corbett refused to say whether ne
would sign to fight before any other
club.

DENVER, Col, Oct. 10.-The Nerrs pub
fishes a sensational article to-day to the
effect that DR.. Graves, the infamous
poisoner, who was supposed to have
suicided in Jail, is not dead. 1t is main
tained that pine log, occupied the
coffin instead OF a body.
The story is that Charles n. Chand-
Ter, a wealthy citizen OF Thompson Gen.
tire. Conn, arrived here Tuesday IN
company with Stephen Morse, OF the
same town, which is DR.. Graves old
home, and where the body is supposed
to have been buried. These gentlemen
told the hotel proprietor where they
stopped that DR.. Graves was not dead;
that the casket was opened at the
grave in Thompson Centre against the
protests OF the widow and found to con-
tain pine log instead OF dead body,
and that the supposed dead doctor is
now enjoying his liberty in foreign
country.
A rumor has been current here for
some time past that TIE body carried
from the cell in the county jail on that
Sunday morning was wax, and not the
flesh OF the alleged famous poisoner,
and that this trick had been played in
order to give the prisoner mis- liberty
and deceive the public; that the parties
to the deception are some high officials
and secret organization. This rumor
was strengthened by the fact that no
one was allowed TO view the remains eX-
cept the most intimate friends OF the
Graves family, and also that Mrs.
Groves refused to allow the body to be
embalmed before shipping it to Massa-
chusetts, but to-day is the first time the
report has appeared in print.

THE BRIGGS CASE
Finally Disposed of by the New York Synod
Under GrGnt Excitement.

Finally Disposed of by the New York Synod
Under Great Excitement.
ROCHESTER,, N. Y, Oct. 19.-Excite-
ment was intense at the session OF the
Presbyterian Synod to-day when it be-
came known that the judicial commit
tee which had been in session nearly all
night, had agreed on its report and was
ready to submit it. The main portion
OF the report pertaining to the Briggs
case recites the five complaints against
the action OF the Presbytery of New
York and concludes:
The merits of the Briggs case have
all been heard on appeal in two general
assemblies. In the general assembly OF
1893 tho whole case was heard at great
length, and final judgment was rem
dered at that time by that assembly
covering the whole case. This, in our
opinion, clearly and finally disposes of
all interlocutory questions in those
cases, no matter when those cases were
pending.
Rev. Francis Brown asked to be heard
for ten minutes. A dozen conservatives
Jumped to their feet 10 object. The
voice OF liberal was heard, "Let us
have free speech" Prof. Brown then
addressed the synod in opposition to
the adoption of the report.
Rev. Stephen Hopkins gained the floor
and said with some heat that the gem
erai assembly had arrived atits decision
by the exercise OF "brute power" A
voice, 81 demand a retraction."
The question on the adoption of the
recommendation OF the judicial COM
mittee was called for, and the report
was adopted by large majority.

A CoMPRoNIIsE

Agreed Upon by tho Democratic Senators.
The Measure in Course OF Preparation.
WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. l9.-There
is a report heard on all sides about the
capitol that compromise had been
agreed upon by tho Democratic sena.
tors There is no doubt that this re.
port is substantially correct; yet there
is slight obstruction somewhere which
renders the members Of the committee
cautious about giving out the deal. 1t ia
beloved the President has not yet ex.
pressed his approval ot the proposed
substitute.
1t may be stated explicitly, however,
that the members OF the senate on both
sides OF the chamber, without excep-
ton, regard it az settled that measure
is in course of preparation Mt the
hands OF the Democratic steering COM
mittec.
The bill provides for the rcpea! OF the
Sherman law. but removes the date ut
VIII ch the repeal will take effect until
tae lst oi January or the lst OF July,
1895; it retires the treasury notes below
$ or SO; it coins S5I.O)O,OJ1 of silver
seignorags now on hand; II makes the
purchase OF 100000 ounces OF silver
per month mandatory.
