candidate. The Seventh, Sixth and
other wards seconded the nomination,

Mr.. Rogers, by strange coincidence.
was present, and was introduced by the
chairman as the favorite son of Ramsey
county. Mr.. Rogers said he owed his
nomination to no clique, combination or
conspiracy. The people put him there,
and none OF the aforesaid cliques, com.
binations or conspiracies should stand
behind him. He was not real sure, but
he was pretty sure. that he would be
elected, along with some others. He
didn't think, upon investigation, that
the emoluments of the office were any
too great, but If he found that they were
greater than he could bear he would
not oppose their curtailment. He was
a Republican, he said, for various
reasons, and took shy at Greece, Rome
and other foreign localities, demonstra-
ting incidentally his familiarity with
the classics, and quoting foreign au-
thorlties in support of the statement
that st. Paul was located in Ramsey
county, ard that Ramsey county was a
good county In which to live and run

His Challenge.
HARTFORD, Conn.,, Oct. 3.-Champlon
James j. Corbett, in all interview with
an Associated Press reporter tonight,
stated that he had covered Fitzsim,
mons money Ill New York.
''What have you to say, Mr.. Corbett."
asked the reporter, ITO FitzSimmous'
reply to your sweeping challenger
''There is no reply to make" the
champion replied.
'Fitzsimmons is probably not aware
of the fact that l have covered his
money in New York. l had $1,000 up
to match ODonnell against FitZsimmons
and l have telegiapned to have it
transferred to cover FitZsmmons' chal-
lenge. l will meet Fitzsimmons in New
York OH Thursday to make final arrange
ments.
II will also meet any other heavy
weight or any other weight in the world
the same day. AS many of them as
like to come with $4,000 | will meet all
in one week any time after the 1st of
July that they wish to choose,
"rhe public no doubt are paralyZed
at this remarkable declaration l have
made, but, nevertheless, l have the
money, and If any one thinks l am
bluffing or fooling. all they have to do
is to put up $4,000 and make me look
like monkey before the world if l am
not in earnest. l will meet all
heavyweights or any other weights
in the world that have $4,000,
beginning with FtZsimmons.
am sick and tired of the pugilistic busi-
ness and want to retire. and after l re-
tire no one can throw it up in my face
that l have not defended the champion
ship of America against the world"
Corbett states that he holds the
championship of America, which cannot
be denied, but the newspapers and the
Olmpic club people are bound to keep
him fighting necessarily to maintain it.

G. w. McCrea was selected as tempor-
ary secretary and Ii. j. Kimball as his

explaining that he was not delegate.
There was some opposition to the
