whelming majority of the people of the
state.
So the situation remains, as it has been
in regard to the fight for weeks, doubtful,
with the governor apparently holding the
trump cards.
WORK ON THE ARENA.
The club people, however, are still at
work on the arena and it is rapidly ap-
preaching completion, and the club off,
cials say that it will be finished by next
Saturday night. There was some COM
ment among those who have seen it, as to
the apparent lightness of the timbers
used in the construction of the seats, but
those in charge of the building declare
that they win be amply braced from be-
meath and made strong enough to sus-
tain any strain which may be placed
upon them. Saturday evening the framing
for the seats had all been erected, and the
workmen were busy mailing on the siding.
READY FOR FLIGHT.
New Y ork, Jan. 15.-Both Corbett and
Mitchell are evidently sanguine that the
Duval Athletic Club win be able to carry
out its programme one week from next
Thursday, for both have engaged special
trains, to run directly from the ringside
over the new Richmond and Danville
route TO this city. The railroad company
has agreed to provide cars for both box
ers, and even in case the battle should
be fought outside the city limits of Jack
sonville, they will board their respective
trains and be whisked northward at the
conclusion of the fight. Manager Brady
has engaged Madison Square Garden for
Saturday night, Jan. q, and Mitchell has
secured the Clermont Avenue Rink,
Brooklyn, for the same date, but if the
latter should win, he will get the Garden
date. Charles Thorley, Ed Kearney, Jr.,
and a party of fifteen well-known
business men start in private
car over the Richmond and
Danvllle road one week from to-day.
Warren Lewis and W. Lewis, of Ma
hanoy City, Pa. DR. Lakeman, James Rob-
inson, and Gus Tuthill will start over the
same route day later,

CADETS TRIAL GOES OVER.
The Witnesses in the Case Pursued by
Singular Ill-Luck

Richmond, Va, Jan. 15.-The cases
against Seymour $. Cadot, for embezzle
ment and forgery were set for trial in the
Hastings court tomorrow. The eexamina-
tion, however, will not be gone into. This
agreement was reached to-day after a
conference between counsel in the case.
The cause for the postponement is the
inability OF j. G. Schmidlapp, president
and treasurer of the Live Oak Distillery
Company, of Cincinnati, to be here
Mr.. Schmidlapp, accompanied by T. l..
Lissenden and j. ID. Ermston, also OF the
Live Oak Company, started for Richmond
day or two ago. to attend the trial. The
president was especially anxious TO be
here as he was an important witness for
the prosecution. When he got so far as
Washington however, he was stopped on
account Of the illness Of his daughter and
returned to Cincinnati Messrs. Lissen-
den and Ermston came on to this city.
To-day telegram was received stating
that it would be impossible for Mr..
Schmidlapp to come, as his daughters
condition was not improved.
THE TRIAL GOES OVER.
This news was also communicated to
the counsel in the case, and they agreed
that the trial should 90 over to the next
term of the Hastings court, which be-
"
When the case first came up
for trial two months ago, Cadets
lawyer asked that all the books of the
distlllery company containing the records
of the transactions OF CABOT for the
house, be sent here. The prosecution OBJ
jected to thus accommodating the accused,
owing TO the serious Inconvenience the
fultillment Of the request would bring
about The Judge thought the books had
better be here, and to-day they arrived
about cart Ioad. 1t was agreed tina
they should be taken back to Cincinnatit
to be returned here four days before the
investigation begins.
A remarkable fatality seems to have at
tended this case from its beginning Soon
after the matter first began, George
Yost, secretary Of the company, died and
shortly after Mr.. Cadets indictment by
the grand jury, death occurred in his
family. Now Miss Schmidlapp, daughter
of the president of the company is how
ering between life and death.

NORWOOD HARD TO DOWN.
The Ex-senator Trying Hard to Gut
Out Brock Beckwith.

Washington Jan. 15.-Private Secretary
Thurber telephoned Senator Gordon to-
day that Brock Beckwiths appointment
would certainly be sent to the Senate to-
morrow, but still the case is not settled.
Ex-senator Norwood is the stumbling
block. The latter gentleman was In
Washington too long to know that any APP
polntment is settled until papers are
signed, and even then in many cases a
vigorous kick from any influential
politician sends the pot flying
into the fire. Mr.. Norwood has been on
the trail of the President, and this eve
ming called and had an audience with him
again. He has brought influence to bear
on Secretary Hoke Smith, but the last re-
ports show the statement of the Secre-
tary of the Interior to be firm for Mr..
Beckwith. Mr.. Norwood has also tried to
propitiate Senator Gordon, but the latter
remembers the personal enmity he
was held in so long, and
this, with Mr.. Norwood's sub-treasury
phantasmagoria, keeps the two
apart. Mr.. Beckwith wrote to Mr..
Thurber this evening to know positively
what tomorrow would bring forth, but
Mr.. ThurDer will answer the letter only
tomorrow, and so the case hangs up for
one more night, and Mr.. Beckwith's sus-
pense is that much longer to be endured.
Those who claim to be in position to
know say that Mr.. Beckwith is certain
to land, yet there is enough uncertainty
about it to make Mr.. Norwood continue
on the trail and TO cause Mr.. BeckWith
possibly undue anxiety.

Negroes in Arkansas Selling Out to
Go to the Bark Continent.
Memphis, Tenn, Jan 15.-The negroes
in this section of the south, principally
those in Arkansas, have contracted the
emigration fever again, and there is an
exodus of black men to Africa. A dis
patch from Mariana, Ark, says all the
negroes in that neighborhood are sacritic-
ing what little property they have with
the intention of going to the dark cOnti-
nent. One car load has passed through
Brinkley en- route for New York
whence they intend to sail for
their ultimate destination. 1t seems
as if the scheme had been worked by
negro agents, who have been canyassing
this section for some time, for what pur-
pose or in whose interests is not known
Many of the negroes owned small places
and several head of stock, and were, com
paratively speaking, in good circum-
stances, but they have sacrificed all for a
few dollars to pay their way to New York.
A prominent planter purchased nineteen
hogs from one of those would-be emf
grants for the small sum of S6

A SETTLEMENT WITH HAWAII.
McCreary and Holman Trying to Draw
UP an Agreement.

Washington, Jan. 15.-Chairman Nc
Creary, of the House committee on for
eign affairs, and Representative Holman,
conferred this morning as to the PROPOSE
ton to be submitted to congress for the
solution of the Hawaiian problem. The
congressional leaders are trying to devise
plan of settlement which will be con-
siStent with the national dignity and will
not be further continuance of the pres
ent complication. After the talk to-day
Mr.. McCreary said: "Some solution to
the question will undoubtedly be ready to
submit to the House before Jan. 80. The
tariff will have the right of way until
then. 1t will give US time
to consider what can be done.
Mr.. Holman and myself will
go into the question very fully. l can
not tell at the present time what plan
will be offered, and indeed plan has not
yet suggested itself to me. But the COM
mittee and others interested will en-
deavor to offer settlement which will
be satisfactory to congress, just to all
parties in Hawaii and consistent with our
national integrity
Mr.. Holman favors recognition of the
provisional government as the existing
and lawful government of Hawaii and
then securing by treaty with the pro-
visional government an agreement which
will guarantee the islands against inter
ference by foreign powers.
At 2 o'clock to-day Assistant Private
Secretary Pruden brought to the Senate
President Cleveland's message, trans
mitting the Hawaiian correspondence laid
before the House last Saturday. Although
the Senate was in executive session, Sec
retary Pruden was admitted behind the
closed doors, and delivered the documents.
The Hawaiian papers transmitted to
congress by the President did not include
any reports from Admiral Irwin to the
navy department. 1t is supposed that
such reports were received by the Corwin,
but nothing is known of their contents.

A PANIC IN A SCHOOL.
A Boy Aged z Years Blows Out His
Brains With a Pistol.

Washington, Jan. 15-The Cranch pub
lie school in East Washington was the
scene of a panic this morning about 9
o'clock. The children were entering for
the days study, when Grover Hummer,
child years old, was seen fourishing
pistol, that he had brought from home
unknown to his parents, and playfully re-
marking that he was going to shoot some
one, but finally saying he would shoot
himself, and pointing the pistol to his
head accidentally pulled the trigger and
blew his brains out. An exciting scene
followed and children ran screaming into
the streets and some time was required to
restore order. Luckily, no one was in
jured in the scramble.

SHOT BY AN rRATE HUSBAND.
A North Carolina Town Agog over
a Scandal in High Life.

Richmond, Va, Jan. 15.-A special TO
the Times from Greensboro, N. c., says:
"A shooting ARRAY in high social circles
has been brought to light in this city,
which, on account of the prominence of
the parties concerned. is causing q great
deal Of excitement.
The particulars are as follows: On Fri
day morning last, Capt. Gilmer left the
city, ostensibly for a two days trip TO
Raleigh, but he returned the same night,
although unknown to his wife, and went
to the residence of his mother, Mrs. John
a. Gilmer, where his wife sometimes
stayed during his absence.
TOOK OFF HIS SHOES.
Removing his shoes, so as not to arouse
bis mother, who had retired for the
night he went up stairs and concealed
himself in the hallway, and from his
place of concealment discovered that his
wife was in one Of the rooms. He saw
man come up stairs, go to the door, knock
gently and leave No one knows who this
man was, but as it was about time
for the northbound train on the
Richmond and Danville TO arrive,
it is supposed that the man was being
notified that it was time to go to the sta
tion.
MAN COMES OUT AND Is SHOT.
AS SOON as Ln6 messenger leIJ the door
was opened, when Capt. Gilmer saw a
man, afterward ascerteined to be Frank
Holland, n prominent society man, OF
DanNlle, Va, standing with his overcoat
on his arm as if ready to depart. No
light was in the room except dim fire
light from the CRATE. Capt. Gilmer then
stepped from his place of concealment and
flashing dark lantern full in the face of
young Holland, shot him. Holland fell
in his tracks. In the meantime Mrs
Gilmer had rushed from the room. After
the shooting Capt. Gilmer came out and
locked the door At the sug-
gestion of a friend who met him
leaving the house, Capt. Gilmer sent
for a physician, but when he arrived
there Holland was gone. II is said that
Holland, who only received flesh wound
in the thigh, quickly made his way to the
railroad station, and as the train for Dan
vile was late, succeeded In getting
aboard. IL is now understood that Capt.
Gilmer has taken steps to secure a di-
vorce at oncen
