a posse of citizens after an exciting

the posse, which We're returned with
the result that two of the men were hit
with rifle bullets, one in the arm and

Pugillst Jacks4n Refuses to SIGN Ar

at Sioux City.
DATE NOT SATISFACTORY.
lie Will Meet Corbett Any Time
Within Three Months But
Not Later.

CHICAGO, Sept. lathe efforts of the
Sioux City Athletic club to bring off a
fight between Corbett and Jackson has
resulted in complete failure, jackson
absolutely refusing to put his name to
the articles of agreement as signed by
Corbett.
Edward Lloyd, representing the
Sioux City club, met jackson and his
manager, "Parson" Davies, at the
Briggs House at noon in the presence of
goodsized crowd of sporting men and
newspaper reporters. Little time was
spent in preliminaries and Mr.. Lloyd
produced the papers, which Corbett had
signed in New York.
Jackson glanced over them and at
once said that they would not do.
81 will fight for your purse and side
bet of $I0,O00," he said, ''but the fight
will have to come off within three
months"
Must BE Within Three Months.
That's the idea exactly" said
Davies. .Mr. Corbett is ON the stage
now, and we don't intend to advertise
him until May or June. This agree
ment calls for the fight to take place
between May 10 and June Is. Now
you people name your place and make
the time within the next three months
and jackson will sign"
This Mr.. Lloyd said he could not do,
and Davies proceeded to pick flaws in
the papers. He declared that the deal
did not look honest; that no place was
named; that there were no specifications
as to whether the fight was twenty
rounds or ten years, or to finish, and
that the whole matter had peculiar
look. jackson chimed in with an OBJ
lection to fighting 'any place.
Il want to fight before q club and in
house." he said. don't want the
affair to take place in field or tent"
Lloyd Gets Excited.
Lloyd became considerably excited
over the fun that Davies poked at the
papers, but kept his temper and tried
hard to obtain the necessary signature.
He declared positively, however, that
he could not bring off the fight in the
time specified by Jackson.
''We have got to have good weather
to get a good crowd" he said. 81 want
to see this thing go through, but there
is no use talking of bringing it off in
three months
sits three months or nothing" de-
clared Davies, and Jackson added
That's right.
"Well, its off, said Davies as he
picked up his hat. II didn't like the
looks of this thing anyway"

HOLD THE SEA.

The japanese have undoubtedly illus
trated afresh the value of sea power.
This, Of course has been taught time and
time again, in lessons familiar to all The
most powerful factor in the downfall of
Napoleon, enc that operated all the time
from 1905 to 1914, was the absolute control
of the sea by his arch enemy, Eng land.
He was shut off from transportation by
cations and there was no point in the cir
Gle of his conquests from the easternmost
shores of Italy along the coast of the
Mediterranean to Gibraltar, and thence
around the Atlantic and the Channel and
the North sea into the Baltic, where the
English could not assail him. The geni'1s
of the great conqueror, and the powerful
impulse the revolution had given to his
soldiery made him master of continental
Europe. but he could not hold it. Wher-
ever upon the sea there was strategic
were English fleets, English diplomacy,
and English allies. and these finally led
first to the downfall at Paris and then to
Waterloo.
A more recent. possibly a more forceful.
lesson is to be drawn from our own civil
war. The union feet blockaded the. Con
federacy and almost starved it TO death.
They shut it from recruits and supplies
and munitions of war. They cut 1t in
two by their fleet on the Mississippi. and
penetrated its vitals along the lines OF
other navigable streams. They hoveref
around it. as England lowered around
Napoleon and his satrapies. and assa1lad
it wherever it was weakest. When the
true history of the conquest of the Con-
federacy is written it will undoubtedly
appear that, in proportion to numbers Ell ::
gagged and expenses incurred, the navy of
the United States was far more efncient
factor in the final result than even the
armies in the field.
Japan is illustrating the same lesson
