Sporting Men at jacksonville Conf
dent Of a Fight.
MEN PUT At WORK ON THE ARENA.
Mitchell Doesn't Want to Defy
the Law.
HOW THE MATTER STANDS.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla, Jan. 4.-After
consultation with their attorneys this
morning the officers of the Duval Athletic
Club gave orders for placing $50 men at
work on the arena in East Jacksonville.
This is in addition to the present force.
The clubs lawyers say that the city ordi-
nance protects the club and that nobody
can stop it now. Club men and pugilists
all agree that the fight is now dead sure
thing.
Mitchelrs manager wired the Duval Club
from st. Augustine today that the English
man would do nothing in violation of law.
He added, however, that his man would be
on hand at the time and place fixed by the
club.
Mitchell read in todays paper that Cor
bett had signed the amended agreement,
but as the signature read James j. Cor
bett. per W.A.B.." 1t didn't please him.
He told Thompson that he feared chicanery
Manager Bowden was at once wired that
Mitchell demanded that Corbett put his per-
sonal signature to the articles. When this
Is done he wants to scrutinize all four Of
the copies of the articles to see that the
thing is done properly or to his satisfaction.
The club feels very sanguine today that
the contest will come off, Its attorneys ad-
vised the manager this morning to go
right ahead with the construction Of the
arena. This advice will be acted upon,
though the arena will not be so costly nor
so comfortable as 1t would have been had
there been absolute certainty that the fight
would not be interfered with.

story Of One Trouble Now Raging
Down There.
The United States minister to Honduras
and Guatemala has sent a report to the
State Department on the trouble between
Nicaragua and Honduras. He says the
hostile feeling was caused by the action of
the Nicaraguan government In admitting
Honduran refugees to rights Of citizenship
Some of the refugees. he says. have even
been elected to the legislature Of Mica
ragua. The persons who are engaged In
the present civil war in Honduras organized
their forces in Nicaragua.
In an Interview in regard to the trouble
between the two countries, Senior Guzman,
the Nicaraguan minister, said that the presi-
dent of Honduras exiled some gentlemen
from Honduras for political purposes, the
chief one of whom was Policarpo Bonilla
the leader of the insurgents, and they went
over to Nicaragua. I'VE always receive
political exiles in Nicaragua" said Mr. Gux-
man.. 'and treat them well. These political
refugees were taken care of, and that dis
pleased the president of Honduras, who
wanted President Zeaya to expel them from
Nicaragua. We are very hospitable and we
certainly could not drive those men out Of
Nicaragua simply because the president of
Honduras demanded 1t. Thereupcn Presi-
dent Vaspuez obtained power from the con-
gress of his country to declare war aeainst
Nicaragua at any time he saw fit to do so
a most unusual and extraordinary proceed
ing, and never before heard of in Spanish
America. From this time on the govern
ment of Honduras has committed ali Kinds
of hostiities against Nicaragua have re-
ceived a cablegram telling me that a very
strong position has been taken in the town
of Corpus by the revolutionary people, after
hard fight. in which they defeated the
presidents troops. My impression is that
the war will not last long, and that the
Nasquez government will be overthrown"

HUMAN LIFE AND GOLD,

Prophecy is at all times arrogant. II
is foolish for any man to try to tell what
the future holds or to base predictions
on the observations in the past.
Still it does seem that the present rank
cupidity of the world will some day
bring down penalty that will be world
wide.
Money is necessity and harmless to a
certain extent, but when it overrides all
human instincts and tramples life and
happiness under foot in its efforts to
accumulate, its course is tyrranic and it
can not escape retribution.
A score Of men are imprisoned on
Roncadare reef. They are weakened by
thirst and hunger and cling desperately
to the rocks, washed and beaten by the
great waves Of the ocean. Their rescue
is an easy matter. Lieutenant Brainard
attempted to secure the City of Para,
steamship, TO 60 out and rescue the
men. The ship was bound by charter.
Its business was to make money, not to
rescue perishing sailors.
In sentiment, human life is above
everything else, as it should be. In fact,
human life is becoming of less and less
moment, particularly when the issue is
made directly between it and greed for
money.
The trend of the present age is un-
doubtedly to he more humane. But that
Il E.
step with the scramble for money. 1t is
unfair to charge the United States and
its citizens with monopolizing this fault
Other countries are as eager and as un-
relenting in grasping money, as this
nation is. But it cannot continue with
out meeting punishment. When it
comes, it will be swift and rigorous.
