bell, president Of the Illinois Electrical
Forging Company, has disappeared and
many stockholders in the alleged com.
pany, whose subscriptions amount alto
gether to $2l5,000, are looking for him.
The Boston Electrical Forging Com
pany, well known in the east, had an
exhibit at the Worlds Fair of method
of Welding metals by means of electric
ity, and Campbell secured State rights
of the patent for Illinois. A corpora
ton was formed, Campbell naming him
self as one Of the incorporators, while
the others were mere business acquain-
tances used as figureheads.
Under the terms of the negotiation
with the Boston firm the latter was to
receive 25 per cent of the stock in the
new concern for the Illinois right.
Campbell himself was to be the princi-
pal stakeholder, his claim being so per
cent of the stock. He managed to coll
lect altogether over 100000 while the
company was being formed.
Among those whom he has swindled
are President Bush of the Bank of Yolo,
Woodland county, California, who pur-
chased stock to the value of $4,000; II.
J. Thompson of Chicago, $4,000; Oliver
Rice, Lewiston, ILL.,, $4,000.
While at Lewiston, Campbell induced
q merchant named Phelps and his son
William to pay $4,000 in notes for
the worthless stock. From Lewiston
Campbell went east, where he success
fully discounted the notes given for
something over 100000. Since then
nothing is known Of his movements.

The superior court reconvened after
the holidays at 12 o'clock last Tuesday,

the bench and goodly sprinkling of
lawyers to look after the interests of
their clients.
The trial list was taken up and the
special jury list examined.
The case Of the Capelle Hardware
Company VS., the Mayor and Council of
Wilmington was marked settled, and the
case of William L. Parsons vs. the P,
W. " b. Railroad Company, was con-
tlnued Until the February term with q
peremptory rule for trial then.
The case of James Il. Wilson VS.. the
p, w. 81 B. Railroad Co. was marked as
settled.
When the superior court convened
yesterday morning the case of Adelina
Shockley VS.. the Mutual Loan Associa.
ton, was taken up for trial. II. II.
Hayes appeared for the plaintiff and IL.
IL. Ward for the defence. Mr.. Hayes
made application under all affidavit to
produce certain papers pertinent to the
issue, to enable him to properly file his
declaration, his contention being that
the case Is not at issue. Mr.. Ward re-
sisted the application. He held that the
proper time to make such application is
after the declaration is filed and the
case has actually come to trial. The
action is one TO recover from the asso.

lar and legal.

THEY SHALL NOT FIGHT.
Governor Mitchell of Florida Gives
His Ultimatum.

The Corbett-MitchclI Trial Case Thrown
Out of Court-yeto of the Ordinance
Permitting Glove Contests-The Duvai
Clubs Serious Setback.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA, Jan. 2.-In the
criminal court of record this morning
the attorneys for Corbett and Mitchell
appeared, and confidently expecting
that Judge Phillips would decide the
case against them had their clients in
the circuit court, where arrangements
had been made for hearing by Judge
Call tomorrow, on a motion that writ
of habeas corpus issue and the men re-
leased.
But as soon as the criminal court
opened, j. b. Christie, the prosecuting
attorney of the court, arose and said
that no information against Corbe:t and
Mitchell had been filed with him, or
with the judge or clerk, and he saw no
reason, therefore, why they should not
be released and their bondsmen be re-
lieved of any further responsibility
The judge SO ordered, and the case was
ended then and there.
This is triumph for Governor
Mitchell and the opponents of the Duval
Athletic Club, for it showed the case out
the circuit court and thus prevented the
rendering of the favorable decision
which the club had hoped for. 1t is
said that tho governor put the screws on
Christie and forced him to this course.
Good lawyers say that the record case
in the county court and the binding
over of the accused to the criminal
court were sufficient Information" for
Attorney Christie to have prosecuted
the case upon.
THE MAYORS VETO.
AT meeting of the City Council this
afternoon Mayor Fletcher will send in
his veto of the five.ounce glove ordi-
nance. The message contains about
1000 words. In 1t the mayo says:
Under cover of its title, back Of its
yerbiage and between the lines, this
ordinance means prize-fighting without
limit and without restraint in this city.
Looking beyond such transparent sub
terfuge as calling fight glove contest
and disregarding the Juggling of words,
it is plain that such law would be
public declaration endorsing prize-fght-
ing and sanctioning such exhibitions
without restrictions by the city govern
ment and even rendering them protec-
ton. In my judgment this would be
great injury to the reputation and tho
good name of the city and would be
serious blow at its peace and good order.
Without enlarging further, | feel it my
duty, gentlemen, to aud l do veto the
said BILL"
GOVERNOR MITCHELL DETERMINED.
TALLAHASSEE, FLA, Jan. ain re.
ply to a question to-day Governor
Mitchell said: "The Corbett- Mitchell
prize fight will not take place in Florida
unless the supreme court of this State
decides that there is no law prohibiting
such fight. 1t will not be necessary
to proclaim martial law to prevent such
fight, but were it necessary / should
not hesitate to proclaim it, as l am de-
termined to prevent this fight by any
and all means within the reach Of the
executive. There can be no doubt as
to my position, and people who come
here with the expectation of seeing the
laws of the State violated by two thugs
and their aiders and abettors will be
disappointed. f"

NAVAL BATTLE AT RIO.


A Hot Engagement Reported to Have
Taken Place Between the 1nsurgent
and Government Ships.
LONDON, Dec. 27.-A dispatch from
Pernambuco says that q general engage
ment between insurgent and govern
ment ships Is reported to have taken
place at Rio Janeiro. The forts are said
to have shared in the battle. The dis
patch adds that the firing is said to have
been heaviest on December oath.
RIO DE JANERIo, Dec. 29.-Cannon-
aiding between the government forts
and the forts held by the insurgents is
of daily occurrence and the civilians in
the city have become so used to the
booming of the guns that the fighting
in the bay excites little more than pass
ing comments. This may, perhaps, be
due to another cause, that ia that it is
not good policy to openly discuss politi-
cal questions.
CAUSED SOME SLAUGHTER.
The exact number of persons killed
cannot be ascertained, but rumor has il
that two carloads of bodies were carried
off. 1t is pretty certain that the govern
ment soldiers picked up 16 dead.
RIO DE JANEIRo, Jan. 2.-Admiral
Da CANA, commander of the insurgent
fleet in the harbor, published yesterday
manifesto, which was intended to
counteract the effect of his celebrated
declaration Of month ago in favor of

weakened the cause OF the insurgents
greatly in the last three or four weeks,
and has alienated from Mello and CANA
several officers who before its appear
ance had been their trusted friends and
allies.
INSURGENTS CAPTURE BAGE.
