coming fight with Mitchell, arrived in
Jacksonville to-day. They state that Cor
bett will probably rea ch here about the
14th instant.
When asked as to the location Of the
training quarters Mr.. Delaney said: LAS
yet, nothing definite in that way has been
settled MIR. Bowden is out of the city,
and until he returns no steps will be
taken looking towards a selection. The
location is immaterial toCorbett, he only
stipulates that it shall be healthy"
Delaney says he has no doubt tina
the contest can be pulled off in Florida, if
Mitchell will come to time. He expressed
some doubt as to the sincerity of the
Englishman.
Mr. Delaney said that among Corbett's
party will be the Australian, Dan
CreedOn, who is after the scalp Of Bob
tttzsimmOns, and Tom Tracy, the clever
l40-pounder

Miss Howard, will reach the city to-mor-
row.

if he cannot lessen the opposition of Gov
Mitchell to the fight.

gllists wife as very tall blonde The

Senator Hunton and Gen. Lee the
Probable Winners.

Richmond, Va, Dec 2.-The Virginia
legis lature meets on Wednesday next,
and one of the chief features of interest
as the day approaches for the assembling
of this body is the contest for the United
States senatorship. Well informed poll
ticians declare that the senators-elect
will be Senator HuntOn and Gen
Fitzhugh Lee, the former for the short
term, and the latter for the long term.
Senator Hunton appears to have little
or no serious opposition, while in the con-
test for the long term there are quite a
number of aspirants. The battle, how
ever, is evidently between Gen. Lee and
Mr.. Thomas Martin, the friends of each
claiming a majority on the first ballot
From a careful review of all that complex
conditions inside the race, the chances are
decidedly in favor of Gen. Lee.
Gen. Lee has a record as a soldier and as
a governor, and is not unknown to the
people of the United States, having been
a prominent figure in the ceremonies in
cldent to the inauguration Of President
Cleveland.
Mr.. Martin is a well-known railroad
lawyer. He is also a member of the state
democratic committee, and is known to
the committee as a shrewd political or
ganizer. Considerable credit is sattrib-
uted to him for the success of the party
in the past two campaigns in this state.
He has never held public office, and is
unknown to the public at large.

The Printing of the Latter May Be
Done by the Government.
Washington, Dec. 2.-The final settle
ment of the question of supplying the
government with postal cards has been
temporarily postponed by the appoint
ment of committee by Postmaster-Gen-
eral Bissell to go to Castleton, n. Y, and
make thorough test of the card paper
being offered by Contractor Woolworth.
The commission will also investigate and
report upon any other matters that may
seem to them pertinent to the subject in
hand.
Political gossips claim that the con-
tract for printing the postage stamps
promises to be a troublesome one for the
administration.
Postmaster General Bissell is consid-
ering a proposition from the bureau
of engraving and printing, which is
a branch of the treasury department,
for the bureau to do this work
instead of letting it upon contract
to the lowest bidder. Several democratic
congressman from the west and south are
credited with an intention to oppose the
plan of giving the work to the bureau in

House of Representatives.
Washington, Dec. 2.-Charles j. Hayes,
who since 1876, has been the Press re-
porter of the House of Representatives,
first with the New York Associated
Press and afterwards with the United
Press, died this morning at his residence
in Anacosta, in this city. He was stricken
with locOmotor ataXia, a form of paraly-
sis, during the prolonged debates in the
Senate on the silver bill when he assisted
his father, Henry G. Hayes, the veteran
reporter of the Senate and House, and
never rallied from the shock.
Charley" Hayes, as he was universally
called was known to nearly every public
man, and was liked and respected by all, as
well as by his newspaper associates. He
and his father had recorded all the great
events of history at the capitol for the
last twenty years, and they have made
the reports of these events, as well as of
the ecurrentSproceeding sot the House and
Senate which have been furnished to the
southern newspapers. The younger
Hayes knowledge of parliamentary law
was so accurate that he was frequently
appealed to by members to decide knotty
questions, and through all the bitter par
tisan struggle of the reconstruction
period, the Hayes-Tilden controversy
and later, the fairness and accuracy of
his reports was never once successfully
imDugned.

CATTLE EXPORTERS FAIL.
Low Prices, Small Markets and In
jury in Transit the Causes.

Richmond, Va, Dec. 2-The personal
deed of assignment made yesterday by N.
c. Brauer, of the firm of w. w. Brauer &
Co., the largest cattle exporters south of
Baltimore, was followed by similar one
to-day by w. w. Brauer. who manages
the foreign part of the business,
and is resident Of London.
The property conveyed in the
trusts probably aggregates SG5. 600 and is
to secure the personal obligations of these
gentlemen. The firm will not make an
assignment, as it really has no assets.
The liabilities are not given, though
known to be quite large, and the creditors
are Chicago, New York, Baltimore, and
London parties The failure of the firm
is attributed to low prices and small
markets, and the injury to stock carried
abroad through rough seas.
