wrestling with the cases of eight Chinese
employed as servants on the United States
steamer Charleston, who ask TO be regis

this country were being registered under
the new law the Charleston's coolies were
serving ON that vessel in Brazilian waters.
The time for registration having long

of pugilists, who brought out Creedon
and Tracey, is here. He wants the Duval
Athletic Club to arrange a match be-
tween Creedon and Eitzsimmons. At
present, however, the club has just as
much match as it can digest.
GOV. NoRTHEN ON THE ALERT.
Atlanta, Ca, Jan. 19.-It is generally
believed here that the Corbett-Mitcheil
fight will take place in Georgia. Today
the possibility of this has been the sub
lect of a great deal of talk. The view of
the sporting element is that it has been
the purpose of the Duyal club all along,
since the relations with Gov. Mitchell
became so strained, to have the fight in
this state, and that the controversy with
Gov. Mitchell has been kept up in order
to distract attention from the real inten-
tion. Gov. Northen evidently takes
this view Of the situation,
about it, he is making his plans to
balk the fighters should they attempt TO
have their mill on Georgia soil. When
asked if he would take any steps to keep
this contest from occurring in Georgia he
refused to say, as he thought it would be
improper for him to say what he would
do. 1t is understood from good authority
that Gov. Northen is notifying the
sheriffs of Charlton, Camden, Glynn, Nc
Intosh and Liberty counties, to be on the
lookout for the sluggers, and to break up
any fight that may be started. These are
the counties which are nearest Jackson
vile, but other sheriffs will be notified,
and if the fight takes place in Georgia it
will require some sharp work on the part
of the sluggers.
GOV. o'FERRALL DOWN ON FIGHTS.
Richmond, Va, Jan. 19.-Gov. OFFER
rail- was interviewed to-day on the subject
Of the pugilistic event at Norfolk last
evening, and said that he proposed to
have the matter investigated and to bring
the participants to justice if possible. The
governor then warmed up and said: 'The
term glove contest is mere subterfuge.
These contests are prize fights in fact, and
in the meaning of the law, and I shall use
all the powers at my command to break
them up, and to punish those who may en-
gage in them and who promote them.
There is a notorious place across the
river from Washington, known as Jack
son City, which Is not surpassed in villainy
by any town on the Mexican border, and
if they will only give me the law to reach
it, l will break up the lawless resort if l
have to call out the entire military force
to do it,"
The governor then read the law on the
subject Of prize fights and said he was in
clined TO think that all persons who wit
ness such fight in the eyes of the law
laid and promote" the fight and may
upon conviction be punished by imprison-
ment for term of three years in the peni-
tentiary.
