WHY JIM WAS ILL.
He Devoted Too Much Time to He
role Exercise.

Chicago, Jan. 49, A special from
Jacksonville Fla, says: For half an
hour yesterday Corbett was a very
sick man He had a fit of vomiting
which lasted several minutes and left
him in a very limp and ragged state
physically although he recovered be-
fore the day was over.
1t appears that Corbett is having
daily arguments with his trainer, De-
laney, about his work The latter
claims that Jim is devoting too much
of his time to heroic exercise, but he
has not been able to convince the
champion on that point. There can be
no question about Corbetts fondness
of work, but, taking Delaney's view of
it, there is a. possibility that unless he
let's up, he may feel the effect of over
training during the fight Corbett is
at it all the time, and in addition to
his regular labor Of the day, which
would make even husky longshore-
man weaken in a few hours, Jim has
decided to try the experiment of sprint
ing. He selected Tom Tracy, the clever
Australian boxer, to run with him.
They had three tries at 100 yards. Cor
bett won the first SO handily that he
conceded fifteen yards to the antipod-
ean who won the race by just about
that distance. In the third heat Cor
bett, allowing his opponent a start of
five yards, succeeded in getting home
first by a narrow margin. About five
minutes after this victory he began to
feel like man who had lost his best
friend. Delaney has shut down alto
gether on sprinting, to which he has
always been opposed land this occur
renee will give him more to say here
after of what Corbett shall do in the
way Of exercise

Secretary and Treasurer A. S. Brewer,
Tampico, ILL.,, and Milton George of
the auditing committee; President w

pected to arrive during the day. The
meeting will last two days, and the
time will be principally taken up by

During the afternoon committees or
resolutions and upon federation were
appointed. A resolution was adopted
favoring a regular and equitable dis
tribution.in the monetary system; pro-
hibition of alien ownership; nationalist
ton Of means of transportation, and

Hatch ashburn anti-option bill, and
strict legislation against the adultera-

Secretary of Agriculture Morton
came in for sharp criticism for his
for his speech of last October before
the worlds congress of agriculture,
resolution being passed declaring his
statement that blind adherence to the
teachings of ignorant leaders and
vicious demagogues," was necessary to
membership in the alliance, was as
untrue as it was insulting, and was
wholly unworthy of the great assem-
blage before which it was made and

st. Joseph, Mo, Jan. 1S.-A gang Of
five robbers, supposed to be the same
men who robbed the fast train on the
Burlington road here a week ago. held
up Kansas City, st. Joseph & Coun-
Gil Bluffs train, at Roy's branch, two
miles north of this city, early this
morning.
The holdup was on the same spot
where last September a gang under
took to hold up train. but found
that the railroad officials had infor-
nation of the fact and had made up a
dummy train loaded with officers. the
result of which was that two robbers
were killed in the fight that ensued.
Last nights robbery was conducted
in an unusual way. A torpedo was
exploded under the train and a red
light swung before it.
When the train stopped the engineer
and fireman were covered with revol-
vers and marched back to the express
car. a part of the gang in the mean
while guarding the rest of the train
and firing occasional shots with a
warning to the passengers not to put
their heads out of the windows.
When he was demanded, the express
messenger opened the car door, and
while one of the robbers covered the
engineer and fireman, the express mes
senger and baggage man with revolt
vers, making them stand in line with
hands up inside the car, the others
went through the safe. This work
completed, the trainmen were marched
to the middle Of the train and the
robbers disappeared in the willows
beside the track. The train was
brought back to this city and the au-
thorities notified. No attempt was
made to rob the passengers or mail
car. The express messenger says the
robbers got nothing to speak of, as
there was very little in the way of
money or valuables in the safe.
1t is believed the robbers live in this
city and are now here. The police are
shadowing several suspects. but have
no definite clue.
Roberts, superintendent of the ex-
press company, said this afternoon that
the amount secured by the robbers
would not exceed $500. An official Of
the road said the amount was nearer
$4,000 a 8 the tain ~obbed always left
here with a full safe.

THE TEXT of THE BILL.
Income Tax Provisions as Agreed
Upon by the Committee.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-The full text
Of the internal revenue bill, including
the income tax, has been agreed on by
the Democratic members of the ways
and means committee. It is proba bic
the measure will be submitted to the
House tomorrow. AS yet the details
Of the income tax have not been made
public. The Associated Press is able.
however, to give a very complete sum-
mary Of the essential features of the
tax as it will be submitted to the
House.
The bill provides that the income
tax will go into effect on January 1.
1895. and the first collection on incomes
es Of incomes are included in the meas
ure, and a uniform of rate of per
cent tax on incomes over $4,000 is
fixed. IL is made obligatory on all
persons receiving individual incomes of
over $500 to make return to the local
collector of internal revenue. These
returns are gone over by the revenue
collector and the tax list made UP of
those whose incomes exceed 81, 900. No
tax is levied on those making a re-
turn Of above So, 500, and under 81, Coo
but the committee deemed it eXpedient
20 leave amargin of $500 below the eX-
emption point in order that it might
be sure all were subject to the tax In
case a person having an income Of
over $500 fails to make a return it
Becomes the duty of the revenue as
SCISSOR TO make inquiry about the
amount Of a persons income. If the
examination diScloSes the income is
above $4,000 the income is subjected
to twice the ordinary tax, and the par
ny failing to make return is deemed
guilty Of an original offense and made
the subject Of fine and Imprisonment.
The main purpose in framing the above
provisions has been to avoid the in
cuisitorial operation of the law The
committee believe this will do away
with the necessity of having the as
SCISSORS prying into the private bust
ness of people, unless the latter have
evade the law. 1t is estimated
that not more than $4,000 per-
sons will be subject to this
tax, SO that the great majority Of citi-
zens will not have TO make returns.
Provision is also made by which no
information can be made public as to
the details of income reported by citi-
zens Any public or private person
who tiivulges any part of the inforna-
ton concerning incomes, is made the
subject Of a criminal prosecution. with
a heavy fine and penalty. Particular
provision is made for the collection of

only of officials, but the salaries of

1T CREATED A SURPRISE.
Senator WaIthaII's Resignation Wa
Totally Unlocked For.

L-.-~ TOt1lly Unlocked For.
Washington, JAN 1S.-The most sig
nificant event in the Senate today, was
the announcement of the resignation
of Senator Walthall, of Mississippi. 1t
was totally unexpected, and when it
was laid before the Senate, with the
letter of the senator announcing that
he had forwarded his resignation to
the governor of Mississippi the greatest
surprise was expressed on all sides.
Walthall is 63 years old, and succeeded
the late L. @ C. Lamar in the Senate
nine years ago. His retirement causes
general regret among his colleagues,
as Walthall was very popular.
The. legislative session was short, but
it gave an opportunity for the intro
duction of two resolutions from the
Populist senators. condemning the bond
policy of the administration, and, later
in the day, in the discussion of the
Stark monument appropriation. The
latter passed by vote of 50 to Is.
Morgan and Daniel took Occasion to
express their disapproval of the pro-
posed bond issues
The remarks of Vest on the election
bill were entertaining and in his usual
pointed style. This law said he
was based on the assumption that
the officials of the United States are
better than the people of the country
an assumption that, when you take a
citizen of a state and clothe him in
federal uniform and authority, he be-
comes a better and more intelligent
man. The public sentiment is such that
state legislation cannot be enforced
The same viii apply to the legislation
coming from the national government"
At the conclusion of Vests remarks
the Senate went into executive session
and a few minutes later adjourned un-
til Monday

Washington, D. c., Jan. 1S.-ISpecial]
Mr. Rawlins went to the department
of justice this morning to inquire into
the charges that had been made
against Utah by United States officials.
and found that the appropriations
made by Congress to run the courts
and the marshal's Office had been
charged UP against the territory for
number of years, amounting to about
$1.00O,OOO, all OF which is clearly wrong
and ne so informed the attorney-gen-
eral The matter is being carefully
investigated, and the secretary of the
treasury will soon make q. report to
Congress.
Rawlins' bill for the admission of
Utah provides against these old claims
being held against Utah.
The Senate territories committee will
hold a meeting on Saturday to con-
slider the statehood bill. The situation
is very encouraging.
The bill of Mr.. Rawlins in regard to
extending the limit of Salt Lakes in
debtedness, which passed the House
yesterday, will soon be disposed of in
the Senate.

THREE PLACES IN SIGHT.
Confidence Is Returning That the
Fight will Come OF.

Jacksonville, Fla, Jan. 1S.-Despite
the evident preparations of the gov
ernor to bring the military here on
the oath confidence is growing that the
Corbett-MitcheI fight will come off on
the 25th within twenty miles of this
city. The statements issued by the
Duval Athletic cub last night to the
effect that it could easily convey 5000
people to a place where the fight might
be witnessed in safety, has treasured
those who were beginning to waver,
and the belief is now general the battle
will take place. Although the entire
Second battalion of the Florida State
Guard has been ordered to Jackson
vile on the oath, the troops will not
bother the sports in any great degree,
as it is known the Duval club has at
least three places selected, to which it
can take the crowd, and with the aid
of large circus tent, the battle can
be witnessed as easily as though it was
fought in the arena. One of the loca-
lions selected has also a large pavilion
which may be utilized, but this point
is not yet settled on.

COLORAD0's LEGISLATURE.
1t Is Still Between the Devil and the
Deep Sea.

Denver, Jan. 1S.-The Senate ma
jority in caucus have been considering
a proposition providing for the dis
missal of every officer and employee OF
the Senate, followed by adjournment
for one day. Every member would
them go home and not return. Should
the resolution pass it will leave the
governor without any official to call
the senate to order or arrest members
on a writ of attachment, and it will be
the means Of compelling the House to
adjourn.
When the Senate was called to order
at 2:30, after approving the Journal of
yesterday, the Senate adjourned with
out reference to the resolution con-
sidered in caucus.
The House went to work in earnest
and passed several bills on the third
reading, the most important being one
to reduce the penalty for the redemp-
ton of lands sold for taxes just one

Lease viii Go to the Coz.

Kansas City, Jan. ia special to
the Journal from Topeka, Kan, says:
A real estate dealer in this city stated
today that he closed a deal on Monday
by which Mrs. Lease would become
uossessor of fruit ranch in California,
and that she contemplates removing
there at an early. day to establish a
permanent home for herself and family.
1t has been known for some time that
Mrs. Lease had become weary of the
turmoil of politics and desired to es-
cape further notoriety and criticism.
In an interview at Wichita, Mrs
Lease confirmed the report.

Omaha, Jan. 1S.-The Hawaiian minis
ter at Washington, Lorin A. Thurston.
went through Omaha this evening en-
route to Washington. To an Asso-
clated Press reporter, Minister Thurs
ton said the members of the govern
ment are not alarmed at the threats
of Lilioukalani, as she is powerless
and her talk is treated as the utter
ance of an angry woman. Her threats,
| however lost her the allegiance of MANY
loyal men who denounce the queen for
rejecting the proposition to grant
amnesty IN case she is restored. She
cannot be restored except by force and
there is little probability of that. The
taIk OF her securing an army in Can
ada is treated as a good joke 1 know
nothing OF a protectorate being es-
taDnshed. The present government is
amply able to take care of the state.
DON anticipate any trouble with the
United States. The annexation oues-
ton IS lost sight of in the restoration
policy, but it will come up again in
the islands. The feeling is as strong
as ever in favor of annexation; in
fact among the natives. it is growing

William Waterhouse, of Cedar Rap
| ids, Iowa, brother of Henry Water
house, of the provisional government,
who returned from Honolulu with Min
lister Thurston, talked freely on the
situation in the islands at the time of
his departure, and, according to Water
house, the spirit of the provisional gov
eminent is one Of defiance to the
United States in particular and to all
governments in general. He SAYS all
arrangements have been made to hoist
an American flag. 'tThe greatest ex-
element prevailed in Honolulu" said
Waterhouse, when the CorWin ar
rived, and it seemed as if a reyohl-
ton would be undertaken. The pro-
yiSional government is ready to resist
by force, and there is no question but
there would have been a conflict if any
attempt had been made to land the
marines The animosity is not CON
fined to the United States government.
but ii extends to any government that
expects to undertake the restoration
Dole is fixed to fight to a finish for
what he now holds. Minister Willis
has not been given his papers, but the
impression in the islands is he will
ask for them soon. He is ostracized
and generally disIiked, the sentiment
among the white inhabitants amount
ing to almost a boycott. His wife is
included in the feeling by the ladies
of the island. This action is explained
on the ground that when Blount was
in the islands he invited Secretary
Philips to his home, and then asked
questions and made use of the answers.
1t is not intended that persons in Hon
olulu shall again be subjected to that
sort of thing on the part Of any
American connected with the CIeve-
land administration"
He further says if any attempt had
been made to restore the queen, she
would have been assassinated. This
fate" he said, awaits her and she
knows it, though it has not been given
official recognition
