Mill Before a Grand
Jury.

FORT WORTH, Ten. Oct. 9.-The con-
ference at Dalhs regarding the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons urize-fght ended about
o'clock this erening, and Hot Springs,
Ark, was selected as the location for the
battle. The law Of that State makes pugiI-
istic encounters q misdemeanor with a
maximum fine cf $1,000.
Governor Clarke of Arkansas says the
fight shall not take place, but the man
ayers are satisfied with the very strong pre-
sentation made by the Hot Springs agents
and selected nat place. The date stands
as advertised-octobe 81.
The declaration from Washington this
morning thatFederal interference was a
certainty destroyed Ardmore's chances.
The trainer, lighters and others of the
interested paries were before the Travis
County Grani Jury to-day at Austin, and
the indications are good for indictments

OLYMPIC CLUB SPORTING.
A Billiard Tournament and q Baseball
Match-Miller's Protest.

Billiard Tournament and q Baseball
Match-Miller's Protest.
The directors of the Olympic Club met
last evening and decided upon holding a
billiard tournament in January next. The
outdoor grounds will be fixed up inn
mediately, and all kinds of athletic sports
will be held during the winter months.
A life mem pership rattle is the latest
scheme of the directors to increase the
membership. One thousand chances at
so cents a chance, it is thought, will
materially swell the fast increasing
membership.
There is talk of swimming match be-
tween Glide Hawthorn, the champion
amateur swimmer OF Santa Cruz. and
Irvine White of the Olympic; distance
one-quarter of mile.
Muller, the boxer, who had refused to
box fifth round with Payne of the Sacra-
mento Athletic Club at the recent tourna-
ment held in the capital city, las entered
protest with the Pacific Amateur Asso-
ciation on the ground that if he had boxed
more than four rounds he would have
transgressed the rules of the association.
Payne received the award from the Judges
on Muller's failure to toe the scratch when
ordered to do so by Referee Bower. Nc
CATCHY, who was one of the judges, should
certainly have been conversant with the
boxing rules, as he has acted as Judge at
more than one Olympic Club tournament.
The prize won by Payne is said to be val
ued at $100, but the rules state that prizes
must not exceed $35 in value. PAYNE may
be suspended by the association.
The much talked of game of baseball
between the Olympics and the reorganized
Pacifics will take place at Central Park,
Eighth and Market streets. next Sunday
at 2 o'clock P. NJ. Jack Donahue will act
as umpire and the following is the make.
up of the teams:
Olympics-O'Kane, catcher; Cooney,

DID LITTLE TRAINING.
Corbett Handicapped by the Absence of
His Attendants.

COrbett Handicapped by the Absence of
His Attendants.
SAN ANTONIO, TEX, Oct. 9.-Corbett
did but little training work to-day, owing
TO the absence of his trainers, who are at
Austin as witnesses before the District
Court Grand Jury. He took long walk
this morning and exercised with the ath-
letic appliances, but spent the afternoon
quietly at his cottage with his wife.
His trainers may be kept at Austin sew
eral days. and in that event Corbett will
receive a serious setback in his work.
Corbett stated this evening that he was
perfectly willing to fight in Hot Springs,
Ark, if the fight can be pulled off there
without interference.
He stated that he had received no word
from Manager Brady to-day as result OF
the conference at Dallas. Brady is at
Austin also, and President Stuart will
probably not render a decision as to the
location of the fight until the Grand Jury
makes its report

Students in American colleges wear no
distinctive marks, as do our English
cousins, unless we might consider long
hair, the shabby cap and the own-it-all
swagger of the modern collegian distinctive.
The recent decision of the Yale seniors to
wear caps and gowns on Sundays through
out the entire academic year will tend to
lead to the old Yale campus decidedly
classic air. 1t may not be many years
hence when the higher classes in our
colleges will adopt the cap and gown as
regulation dress, as do the English stu
dents. When this time shall have come
our college towns will be as picturesque as
Cambridge and Oxford.-Exchange.

Are Thrown to the Ground With
Serious Results.
COUPLING PIN BROKE.
Three Cars We're Demolished
and Others Damaged.

NEwcoMERsToWN, o., April l. -
westbound freight train was wrecked
on the Panhandle about mile east of
here yesterday morning, and four men
were seriously, if not fatally, injured.
John Wilson, aged 25, a barber living
at Tuscarawas; Oscar Hurley, aged 10,
son of Squire Hurley, postmaster at
Booth; William Mercer and Willis
Berkshire, both of the latter place, all
walked 8 miles to Uhrichsville to catch
a freight fer Newcomerstown. The
men all stood on the end sill of a car
about midway of the train. AS the
train approached the siding to pull in
for the limited, the engineer found
that he was running at a high rate of
speed and made an emergency STOP
The force broke a car coupling just in
front of the one the men were on, and
they were allowed to drop almost into
the jaws of death. Wilson went off
on the left side and was twisted
into the ditch. A car turned over on
him and had it not been for the exca-
walton he would have been crushed to-
death. He has bad face and scalp
wounds, besides internal in juries which
make his recovery hopeless. Berkshire
was pinned to the rail on the other side
and in trying to pull his legs loose,
found them both off below the knees,
Hurzey's right arm was broken in two
places. Berkshire took his coat off,
wrapped it about his severed limbs,
and laid down to wait surgical aid, or
to die. Mercer had a shoulder crushed
and has internal injuries, the severity
of which cannot be told yet. Berkshire
will die and Wilson is in hopeless
condition. Three cars were demolished
and several others damaged.
VICTIM OF A TROLLEY ACCIDENT.
HAzLEToN, Pa, April Mrs. Joseph
Evans died last night as the result of
injuries sustained in Saturdays runa-
way trolley accident, making the
fourth victim of the disaster. Mrs.
Evans was the only person remaining
on the car who sustained any injuries.
The others were hurt in jumping. Her
1O-year-old son, James, is in a critical
condition.
A H1GHWAYBAN STABBED TO DEATH.
SAN JOSE, Cal, April Saturday
night three men held up and robbed
William Dowdigan, a merchant. In
the fight which followed he stabbed
one of the men, who was later found
dead in vacant lot, where he had
bled to death.

TO CONTROL THE SENATE.
Republicans and Silver Senators Have
Formed a Combination.

Republicans and Silver Senators Have
Formed Combination.
Sc WASHINGTON, April lit is now re-
garded by the mem bers of the steering
committees of both parties as practi-
cally settled that the republicans will
reorganize the senatorial committees
as soon as the Fifty-fourth congress as
sembles. The republicans have not
contemplated any sort of compact with
the senators who were elected as pop
u1ists and, therefore, their ability to
organize the committee was left de-
pending upon the support of the silver
senators and the consent of the dem
ocrats.
The democratic leaders are willing
that there should be an organized plan
provided it is done in a manner which
they consider fair and it is understood
that the silver senators are assured OF
being taken care of as they desire by
the repu blicans. On this plan a gen
eral understanding has been reached
without going into details. It is said
that silver majority will still be
maintained in the financial committee
and that there will probably be a dis
tribution of the appropriations among
several committees.

appropriated by the legislature for the

destitute Nebraska farmers will, ac-
cording to decision rendered by the

portionment to-day. Sixty coun-
ties have already made APP
plication for portions of the
appropriation, which will be distri-
buted by county boards according to
the certified necessities of each COM
munity. The only question now dis
turbing the relief commission is
whether the $500, 600 will be sufficient
to meet all demands.

ESCAPE ON HORSES.
People Living in the Vicinity of
Bowling Green, Ky~
Flee From Their Homes to Es-
cape the Forest Fires.
MUCH TIMBER BURNED
And a Number of Lives Were
Lost.

CINCINNATI, April 1.-The Commer>
cial-Gazette's special from points in
western Kentucky and southern Indi-
ana report that the forest fires are still
raging, but definite information from
any localities is lacking. The loss is
estimated at $500, 600 in Kentucky and
less in Indiana. Dispatches from
Bowling Green, KY, say that miles
from there the homes of Otis Smith,
James Waters and Henry Filler were
burned after 500 acres of timber were
swept away. The families mounted
horses and escaped. Henry Filler was SO
badly burned that he died and negro
farm hand persisted in bed on Eiler's
farm. At Annette and Blowtown
large tracts of timber were burned.
William Edwards, colored, was burned
to death while fighting the fire. Since
the burning of James V. Penny's house
in Indiana his wife has been missing
and is now believed to have persisted
in the woods while trying to escape.
In Clark county. Ind, the farms of
Bates and Weber were burned over,
causing loss of $50, 900.
A BURNING MOUNTAIN.
PARIS, Tex, April PARTIES who
arrived here yesterday bring news of a
most singular phenomenon recently
discovered in the widest part of the
Choctaw nation. The Nanawoyd noun
tain is about Is miles long and towers
fully 1000 feet above the surrounding
country. 1t is an unfrequented sec
ton, no person living within 80 miles
of it. A party of hunters went
there and seeing some smoke
took it to be a camp, and pro-
ceeded to the place. Arriving there,
they found that the smoke was
issuing from assure in the rock, which
was SO hot they could not stand on it.
A strong odor of sulphur pervaded the
atmosphere, and occasional detona-
tions were heard. The party became
alarmed and left the vicinity. They
went to an old Indian and informed
him of their discovery. He was
familiar with the place and said that
the smoke was issuing from it and the
same noises was heard in 1882, when
the Choctaws went to that country. A
further investigation will be made, as
veins of silver have been found at the
base of the burning mountain.
