FIGHTERS WHO DO NOT FIGHT.

The rufiians who have obtained notoricty and
big prizes by humping each other are chiefly
busy with their tongues In these days. Most Of
them can talk with far more nimblruess, activ-
ity and energy than they ever display In the
prize ring and the air OF England and America
Is still thick with challenges dcianccs, disputes
and denlals. in the intervals between their
noisy exchanges OF cpihcts most OF the slug
gers divert themselves with drunken brnwlS In
barrOoms Some OF the most contemplate Of
these lawbrcakers have invaded the theatres,
and succeed In filling their pockets by clownish
cnricaiures Of acting. II the newspapers would
ignore the ridiculous vaporings Of prlz,, fight
ers and II amusement seekers would stay away
from the payhOuses which are degraded by
their antics, these fellows would sink back
into the obscurity from which they ought never
10 have emerged.
The craze for prize fighting appears to have
abatcd TO considerable extent on both sides ~
the Atlantic. few years ago there were
dozens Of so-callcd athletic clubs in Great Brit
ain and In the United States. which were
ganized solely for the purpose Of getting up
matches between pugilists. When the passion
for these brutal contests was ut its height. these
clubs competed with each other In Offering the
most extravagant sums for battles between we'll
known boxers. In those days the most notorious
sluggers could demand almost any terms. A
purse Of $4,000 for fight looked upon
by a Sullivan. a Corbett. IA Mitchell or n Fitz-
simmons as too paltry for a moments thought
These bruisers insisted that $4,000 &}OOOO
$4,000 and even more should be offered before
they would sign IN agreement for II contest
Rewards for successful smuggling reached lofty
figures IN those times. In the years during
which John l.. Sullivan was defeating all an
tagonists In the ring the total Of his gains from
his various fights and exhibitions must far have
exceeded Il quarter Of million dollars This
comfortable fortune he has squnndercd in riot
Gus debauchery. Other notorious brusers en-
joyed large revenues from the prize ring The
Coney Island Athletic Club gave immense prizes
and made big profits until an aroused public
sentiment compelled the Kings County officials

EFFECTS OF ARBITRATION.

The British Government has taken decisive
action to prevent the fitting out Of war vessels
at Glasgow and Newcastle for either China or
Japan The Islam and u tOrpcdOcatcher have
been seized by the customs officials and will b.
detained until condemned or released by process
OF law These measures have been adopted
under the Foreign Enlistment act for the main
tenancc OF neutrality, but the bearings OF the
Alabama decision are at once recognized by the
English press and the action Of the Government
Is commended on that account.
1t Is noteworthy that while the Alabama ar.
bitration and the adoption Of the three rules az
fected the relations Of Great Britain and the
United States alone. the principles Of the award
have been tacity accepted as Of general applica-
ton. England " under no treaty obligations
to exercise due diligence in preventing the con-
version Of its ports into "a naval base for the
Asiatc rivals, but 1t Is acting consistently with
the principles affirmed by the Geneva arbl-
traitors. The United States Government has
been equally sollctOus TO proceed with the ut
most caution whenever any approach has been
made to the conditions Of the Alabama case
Indeed, In the furry caused by the attempts
OF Russian agents TO purchase steamers In 1873
in American waters, and In the first stage Of the
Itata complications, the Government In its effort
to stand straight has leaned backward. France,
