taken in the matter Of allowing trolley tracks to

stands to reason that no such crossings should

Railroad Company. the requirement is that it
shall construct tunnel underneath the Park
way but the company is exceedingly anxious to
get in operation at early day. and has been
pleading for the privilege Of being allowed TO
cross temporarily the surface. during the
time that the tunnel is being built. The Com
missioner has very properly declared that he
will never consent To this. but it Is understood
that when the company shows that It really
means t. build tunnel, he may go far as
to allow it To run its across the Boulevard
with horses. Mr.. Squier should be exceedingly
careful about granting even 90 much as that.
The company in question is one Of those concerns

CORBETT AND JACKSON.
PETER HAS NOT YET SIGNED
THE ARTICLES
Nor IL 1t Probable That He VIII Do
30 - Sporting Circles Dissusted
Over n Fake News
Dispatch.

CHICAGO. Sept. 10.-The Daily News
today says: The utmost disgust is be-
ing expressed in the sporting circles OF
Chicago over the fake dispatch sent out
by the United Press concerning the pro-
posed Jackson Corbett eight. This dis
patch, concocted in the Office of the
above alleged news association, said
that jackson had signed the article for
fight with Corbett to be pulled of at
Sioux City. I. WAS not even as rumor
nor report that somebody had said 30,
but the announcement was boldly made
that the colorsd pugilist had signed.
The facts are that he did not sign the
articles; has not so far done 80, and
most probably never will, as he has re-
peatedly declared that he would not.
The worst of the news is that there lie
no excuse for an association which pre-
tends to furnish authentic news to
newspapers making any such biunder.
II blunder such barsfacsd canard may
be called. 1t is only block and O half
from the Office of the United Press to
Jackson's hotel, and II the alleged news.
gathers reporter had troubled himself
TO step around the corner he could have
essily found out that jackson had not
signed the articles. Bat the neglect OF
the managers OF the association to verify
the news which filters into their Office
is so apparent, that hereafter news-
papers in this section of the country
served by the United Press will be wary
about giving prominence to news it
offers to them, and especially In that
line of sports.
