New York, Oct. 1.-The Evening
World says this telegram was sent to-
day to James J. Corbett by President
William A. ScholI, of the Olympic club,
of New Orleans:
81. j. Corbett, Nashua, n. H.-The
subterfuge you resorted to in causing
IO'Donnell to challenge FitZsimmons is
mot worthy of consideration. 1t was
in the Olympic club the championship
was lost and won. 1t was in the Olym-
pic club that both you and Fitzsim-
mons won your greatest honors, and
lit is now within the province and the
duty of the Olympic club to declare
Bob Fitzsimmons the champion heavy
weight of the world, should you per-
sist in refusing to accept his challenge,
which is backed up with a side bet of
$40 900. AS far as the Olympic club is
concerned it is immaterial to me
with whom the side bet is placed. We
don't want to hold it. We offer a S25,-
900 purse, the winner to take all. Fitz-
simmons has complied with every re-
quirement. If you will not defend the
title, Fitzsimmons will challenge and
meet the best man that can be found
lin the world in February, 1895. In the
event that you do not accept the chal-
llenge of F'itzsimmons by Thursday,
Oct. 4, we will declare Robert Fitzsim-
mons the champion heavyweight of the
world

Zacatecas, Mex, Oct. -Four per-
sons were killed and many others in
jured in a bull fight in the little town
of Mosquito in the state of Jalisco,
yesterday. Two bulls, both wild and
very ferocious, were turned into the
arena. To kill them was the task de-
signed to bring all the fighters into ac-
tion at once. A banderillo approached
one of the bulls, waving a red cloth.
He jumped aside and drove the iron
into the thick skin of his neck. The
banderillo had forgotten the second
bull. which was upon him before he
knew it. The animal caught him on
his horns, tossed him over his back and
gored him through. AS others ran to
rescue him, the bull raised his head
with the banderillo impaled on his horn
and charged his tormenters. In the
meantime, the first bull had leaped
over the barrier separating the ring
from the spectators, and rushed into
the crowd. Many persons were gored
and a panic ensued Men, women and
children made a rush for the single en-
trance. In their efforts to escape, three
persons were trampled to death and
many others were injured, some of
them fatally.

ALTGELD FOR PRESIDENT.
Cranky Swinton Does the Governor
High Honor.

hISn Honor.
New York, Oct. John Swinton ad-
dressed 200 members of the Peoples
party last evening. What he said was
earnest, if not at all times compliment
tary to those whom he addressed, and
the indications are the Peoples party
will have him up for mayor of this
city in their convention today. This
boom was set in motion before he had
been speaking fifteen minutes and had
become so pronounced that by the
time he finished three cheers were given
for our next mayor"
Mr.. Swinton shook his head mega
lively.
The first thing Mr.. Swinton said to
the New York Populists was:
'It is not impossible that the next
President of the United States may be
Ia Populist." Then he read an extract
from a published dispatch from Cali
fornia, in which the writer asserted
that the chances for the Populist tick
let were so good this fall that the
Democratic and Republican parties
were combining against it. MY hope
is in the wish. 1t is possible that the
election of the President may be
thrown upon Congress and that the
Populists may hold the balance of pow
er. In view of this contingency it is
well for US to consider our candidates.
Who, 1 ask, shall be the Populist Pres
tdent in the event that one be elected?"
At this question, which was pro-
pounded seemingly in seriousness, half
a dozen men in the audience shouted:
"Peffern
mo" said Mr.. Swinton, ''Peffer will
mot do. He has the misfortune of be-
ing regarded as a comic person. That

dfgous beard he might answer, but

agingly.
Waite and Lewellyn," cried a voice
in the rear of the room.
THAT is better" said the orator,
'but you have not hit it yet"

their heads, and finally a female voice
exclaimed:

MINING LITIGATION.

Duluth, Mimi, Oct. 1.-The question
of the rights Of the Portage Lake Ca
nal company, under the grant made
some forty years ago, has, within the
past few days, been raised again, and
this time the most valuable mines OF
the Gogebic range are involved A
few weeks ago Secretary Smith upset
the canal company's title to $1,000 acres
and his ruling has encouraged the new
fight. 1t is claimed that during the
administration of President Fillmore
he declared the land now covered by
the Gogebic range mines. mineral land,
and as such it was not subject to Sc
lection. Squatters have already set
tied on the mines controlled by the
Penokee and Gogebic consolidated
mines and the Metropolitan Land and
Iron company, which are managed by
w. ]. Olcott, of Duluth, as we'll as
other properties, and have refused to
vacate, though ordered to do so.

New York, Oct. Robert Fitzsim-
mons, the fighter, has letter to Cham
pion Corbett, calling the latter's atten-
ton to the rules laid down by sporting
authorities, which, Fitzsimmons claims,
compel Corbett to fight him or surren-
der the championship. He said Sulli-
van threw up his theatrical engage
ments like a man to fight Corbett, and
asks Corbett to do the same to meet
him.
Corbett's reply was in substance as
follows:
II propose to enter the ring once
more and then retire, win or lose [
want that contest to be with Che best
man in the world, and do not consider
you that man. L care not for the past
history of the ring or it's rules.
, Il will post $4,000 with any reputable
man or newspaper in this country, to
be paid to you in case I refuse to fight
you after you have defeated O'Donnell,

my answer. You need not wait that
long, as 1 do not intend to pay any at
