FIGHTING is BARRED.
Governors Who Say Pugilistic
Contests Don't Go.
Opinions From Thirty-Seven States
in Which Corbett and Jack
son Cannot Meet.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, March 5.-The ed
iior of the Springfield Union asked the
Governors of all the States whether the
laws of their States permit of prize-fght-
ing and whether they would allow the
Corbett- Jackson fight. The Union this

seven Governors. representing the States
Of Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colo

Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky. Massa-
chusetts. Michigan. Minnesota, Missouri,
Montana. Nebraska, Nevada, North Caro-
lima. North Dakota. Ohio, Rhode Island,

the law prohibits prze-fghts and that they
would not permit the Corbett-Jackson
fight in their respective States. except the
following:
Governor Waite of Colorado says: We
do not cross bridges till we come to them.
Prize fighting is felony.
Governor Reyno olds of Delaware says in
his State pugllism can be punished only as
4! sault and battery.
faUverHor Mitchell of Florida says; II
is difncult to answer this question. A
Judge of this State tied the hands of the
executive, whether rightfully it is un.
necessary to state, and the COrbett- Mitch
ell fight took place. This fact, however, /
will state: Ii l am convinced it is the in
tention of the parties Interested to have
the Corbetl-J Jackson fight come off in Flor
ida the Legislature will be called together
at once. and l feel assured that body will
make prize-fgbting impossible in this State.
Governor Nelson of Minnesota declines
to answer until decision is necessary.

IVES ADVOCATES DELAY.
Bondhoiders Asked Not to Accept
the New Agreement.

NEW YORK, March 5-PresIdent Bray
ton Ives officially, on behalf of the directors
of the Northern Pacific, has asked the
bondholders of the company to withhold
the acceptance of the agreement recently
promulgated by the committee claiming to
represent the consolidated bond oders.
and. states four reasons for the request.
Those are that the publication or such an
agreement is premature; that the scope of
the committee is too limited; that the con-
stitution of the committee is unfortunate,
and that, apart from the foreign interest
hitherto represented by Mr.. Willard. the
committee owns and controls but limited
amount of bonds.
Ives urges that while the Northern
Pacific earnings continue to decrease and
in the absence of a full and accurate
financial statement from the receivers, no
basis for plan of reorganization can be
presented. The directors. Mr.. Ives says,
own personally large amounts of bonds
and represent millions belonging to their
friends. He finally urges that a new
committee, representing all interests, be
formed, or that the present committee be
enlarged.

SUGAR AND WHISKY.
Mixed Up in the Democratic
Tariff Calculations.
This is Perhaps the Last Stumbling
Block Before the PerpIexed
Finance Committee.

WASHINGTON. March 5.-The Wilson
tariff bill was the subject of an earnest
consultation among the Senators today.
Ii reached certain stage of completeness,
and il is generally understood if definite
agreement could be reached on sugar it
would then be possible to agree upon
everything else. 1t is understood the de-
mands made by the Democratic Senators
who opposed the bill in the form In which
it was first presented have been met and
tentatively agreed upon; but even these
agreements are subject TO the approval of
the Treasury Department and the needs
of the Government in the matter of rev.
enue.
Secretary Carlisle has been with the
committee most of the day and again this
evening 10 discuss and compare changes
The difficulties surrounding an agreement
upon sugar are the greatest the tariff
makers have to contend with. 1t appears
also that a proposition for an increased
tax on whisky is mixed up with the pro-
posed duty on sugar. II the latter is
agreed to the necessity for an increased
whisky tax disappears. 1t is understood
the committee has also been giving atten-
ton to the tobacco schedule in the inter-

that it had gone up three points started a

THE BOYCOTT IS REFUSED.
Southern Pacific Is Guilty of No
Specific Offense.
AN EXTENSION OF THE RATE WAR
Now the Santa Fe Will Withdraw
From the Association and Slash
Westward From Chicago.

CHICAGO, March 5.-Chairman Caldwell
tonight handed down a decision denying
the request of the Atchison road for boy
colt against the Southern Pacific on pas
senger business. After going over at
great length the causes of the dispute the
chairman says that the AtchisOn is enti-
tied to no relief under the association
agreement because the Southern Pacific
has not been guilty of such action as could
render il subject to punishment under the
association rules, if it were an association
line. 1t being an outside line, The chair
man argues. it makes no ference; it
could be guilty of no offense against the
association, and consequently the sssocia-
ton has no right 10 make fight against It,
This will drive the Atchison from the
Western Passenger Association. 1t will,
tomorrow morning, send a formal notice
Of withdrawal from the association. Ii
will, unless the matter is settled by arbi-
tratioD, promptly proceed to make fight
on California rates from Chicago, instead
of the Missouri River. and the prospect
for very low rates TO California is prom
ising. The ktchison, once out of the asso-
citation, will remain out until the Union
Pacific agrees to become a member.
There is sIr0ng likelihood that libel
suits will be instituted by the Atchis0n
receivers against Chairman Midgelsy of
the Western Freight Association and the
general managers of several lines, who
have passed resolutions declaring the re-
ceivers and high officials OF the road are
not protecting its interests as officers of
the court should do, because they refused
to pass the agreement. Vice President
Robinson and Passenger Traffic Manager
White of the Atchison bave gone East TO
confer with the receivers about the pro-
posed suits and withdrawing from all the
Western associations, on account of what
they consider the insult offered tue officials

Mr.. Midgeley to-day declared that it
would make very little difference if the
Atehison did withdraw from the Western

There was no conspiracy against the COM
