WILL FIGHT IN PRIVATE.
Jackson Is Willing so Long as He
Gets at Corbett.


CHICAGO, Aug. 1L-Peter Jackson ar
rived in Chicago from San Francisco this
morning and left for New York this even
ing, where he goes to personally learn
from Corbe:t whether the latter is trying
to foel him out of a match.
Il will never fight in the South" de-
clared he II expressed myself clearly on
that point when l nrst came to this
country-that the contest should take
place north of the Mason-Dixie line. My
objection is solely on account of the race
preiudices that exist there"
''Do you think Corbett wants to avoid a
meeting with you?"
Il won't go so far as that" answered
Jackson. 81 will say. though. that he has
delayed matters right along. Now l hear
he is booked in the show line up to
next February. have been told over and
over again that Corbett has said he won't
fight me until he gets me where he wants
me, and l suppose that means until age
has laid It's hands on me.
II know this that before Corbett went
to England he raised objections to every
place that bid for the fight"
Suppose that C0rbett should prefer
fighting in private?"
That will suit me-" answered Jackson.
''All | want is to be assured Of protection
and have voice in the selection of the
referee, and I'd just as soon fight in private
as any other way"

QUESTION OF RATES.
Northern Railroads Are Ill Able
to Reduce.
But May Continue to Do So Tempo
rarily and Help Wheat
Shippers.

PORTLAND, Aug. 1L-At the conclusion
Of a conference to-day between Receiver
Mcneil and General Freight Agent Camp
bell Of the Oregon Railway and Naviga-
ton Company and Assistant General
Freight Agent Fulton of the Northern
Pacific the following was given out:
The question of wheat rates is one
which is receiving the serious considera-
tion of the railroad companies with ter
minals on the coast. All of the companies
recognize the seriousness of the situation.
They are i'll able to give any reduction on
account of their own financial condition.
Whatever is done will be done as result
of a conference between the Great North
ern. Northern Pacific and Oregon Railway
and Navigation companies. Nothing has
as yet been decided upon. but within the
next few days a decision will be reached
which will be made public"
The people who own the railroads are
giving the use of their railways for moth
ing. There are no dividends. interest nor
anything but operation expenses being
made. The Oregon Railway and Naviga-
ton Company is not earning operating ex-
peDses and similar condition exists wi tn
the Northern Pacific. Under the present
rates the railroad companies have not been
able to make any profit. The rates are
now far below those of few years ago.
and are really very low when tonnage is
taken into considera ton. A comparison
between the rates prevailing here and the
conditions under which they are made
with the rates prevailing in the East and
the conditions under which they are made
would be very, very favorable to the main
tenance of the present rates on the Pacific
Coast.
Consequently any action decided on
must be in the nature of relief rate to
meet the present exigencies. and with the
understanding that the present rates are
to be returned to as soon as conditions i'm
prove. There was a straight reduction
made last year of 81 per ton on wheat
shipments from the Palouse country, and
this rate was carried into Idaho by the
railroad companies.
Ex-President and Managing Receiver
Cakes of the Northern Pacific is expected
to reach Portland early next week, and it
is believed that while here, in addition to
the consideration of reducing the wheat
rates from the interior, the question of
traffic arrangements between the Oregon
Railway and Navigation Company and the
Northern Pacific will be taken up with
view TO letting the Northern Pacific in and
out of Portland from apd to Wallula, thus
giving the Northern Pacific a short line
from Portland to St. Paul and Duluth.

LEARNED HIS LESSON.
Cudahy Says There Is Nothing
to Arbitrate.
The Front That Will Probably Meet
All Strikers in the Days
TO Come.

OMAHA, Aug. 11.-While there have
been no demonstrative moves on the part
of the strikers to-day, it is probable that
the whole State militia will be massed
around the packiDg-houses next week.
Sunday the State encampment is booked
at Lincoln. The troops opposing the
strikers cannot be released by that time,
so the encampment will be held under the
walls Of the packing houses.
When the men quit work tonight prob
ably 1000 people were on the hill looking
down the railroad tracks, but the main
streets were clear from curb to curb and
from the switchyardS TO the top of the hill.
The side streets were densely packed, but
The tboroughfare heretofore occupied by
the big crowds was clear, except for the
soldiers who paced the street on either
side. No effort was made by the strikers
to interfere with the men going to work.
The general opinion is that the presence
of the State troops has effectually queled
the turbulent spirits which have openly
defed tie local authorities. Any demon
stration on the part of the men Who have
hereto fore caused trouble will be fraught
with serious consequences. or else the
Nebraska National Guards and their off
GERS fail to appreciate the real cause of
their presence in South Omaha.
A meeting of the men who are out was
held in the big hall this afternoon. Sew
eral hundred men were present The
N Getting was behind closed doors from
until 4 o'clock, when an open mass
meeting was held. There were several
speakers. The principal object of the
meeting was to keep the men off the
streets. Many express the belief that the
strike has been broken by the influence of
the State troops. There are those who
sist that the strike is neither settled nor
lost but these men evidently assume that
the strikers are as determined as ever, for
their ranks are still full, and they are
practically unanimous in favor of con-
tinuing the contest with the packers.
Messrs. Brigham and Carroll, appointed
by the citizens committee to confer with
the packers in an effort to end the strike,
held a final conference with Manager
Cudahy this afternoon. The conference
was fruitless, for Mr.. Cudahy on behalf of
ali the packing-house men declared that
they had nothing to arbitrate and that
they would neither compromise nor con-
cede.

WARLIKE DRILLS.
General Miles Plans Extensive Ma

General Miles Plans Extensive Tia.
neuvering for the Troops.
CHICAGO, Aug. 11.-Msjo r-General Mel
son A. Miles has determined on putting
the 1000 regular troops through warlike
drills next week, and has settled on
Evanston as the place formaneuvering the
troops.
The cavalry and artillery will form in
column under command of Colonel David
Stuart Gordon, Sixth Cavalry, and leave
Fort Sheridan Monday, reaching Evans
ton and going into camp the same day.
The infantry, consisting OF fifteen COM
panies, under Colonel CroftOn of the Fiji
teenth Infantry, will constitute the second
column. and will go into camp on Tuesday
at Evanston.
Wednesday will be devoted to establish
ing the camp and issuing the necessary
order for the field maneuyers beginning
on Thursday.
The exercises may be likened to the au-
tumn maneuvers, the great events yearly
on the continento of Europe and at Alder
shot, England.
Since the arrival Of the regular troops
in this city and after their attention was
no longer demanded to check riot and
lawlessness General Miles determined to
hold these maneuvers. He has been de-
layed in finding a suitable site for the
camp and field for maneuvering In
marching distance of Fort Sheridan. The
country for twenty-five miles around has
been secuted and selection fell upon the
site. or Champ de Mars" as it will ever
afterward be called, near Evanston, as the
most or only avalabl place.

Any Rate.
HE WANTS HIS OWN WAY.
Every Point Must Be Given in
His Favor
HE WANTS HIS OWN WAY.
IF THE VI0ILANT Is TO RACE.
Over There Everybody Believes the
Britannia Has Sufficiently DEM
onstrated Her Superiority.

CowEs. Aug. 11.-American yachtsmen
are being generally abused. owing to Mr..
Gould's refusal to sail the Vigilant against
the Britannia in the match proposed by
Lord Wolyerton-ffteen miles to wind
ward and return-for a e100 cup. 1t is
claimed that the match was proposed in
order to give the Vigilant race on the
line of the recent contest for the America
cup. 1t is held that the Valkyrie lost two
of her races in New York in 1893 mainly
because each Of the events was started to
leeward, and that on both occasions
funk of wind occurred near the turn
point and converted the proposed beat
home to windward into sail off the wind.
A member of the Royal Yacht squadron
said that the match proposed by Lord
Wolverton was just what the Vigllant
people had been talking for. This men,
Der added, "Wait until you see the Vigil
liant in open waters"
That has been the cry of her hackers,
so Lord Wolverton proposed a course fif-
order to avoid repetition of the New
York lukes he stipulated that the race
should be started to windward.
LONDON, Aug. 1.-THE Field, in its
yachting article. says: The Britannia b as
now defeated the Vigilent under every
condition of weather and sea, except a
hard-reefed sail in heavy sea. The con-
tests are becoming monotonous to both.
An incident of the result is tina: Gould has
declined to sail the fifteen miles TO wind
ward match on the ground that the Vgi-
liant won the event she came over here tor
last Saturday and that she does n OF desire
any further contests of the kind.
The Pail Mall Gazette this afternoon
says: Il is curious how an American
sportsman is never satisfied unless every
possible condition is in his favor. The
fact that Gould refuses to take part in the
proposed match will convince the English
that the Vigilant is an unworthy holder of
the America cup.
New YORK. Aug. PA cablegram to a
morning paper from Cowes says: The
Prince of Wales and Mr.. Gould have just
signed an agreement. it is said. to sail for
the Wolverton cup on Wednesday next.
NEW YORK, Aug. 11.-There has been q
great deal of speculation as TO how much
1t has cost the Gould boys to keep crack
sailing yacht and one of the largest steam
yachts sfloat in commission. 1t is stated
that since the boys left for Europe few
months ago they have drawn on the estate
tor $500, 900. This will seem a large sum
to spend in sport. but steam yachts like
the ATLANTA are expensive toys when one
reckons the complement OF officers and
men they require, TO say nothing of the
number of artists employed to navigate the
Vigilant and the princely salary of Hank
