THE JUDGE KICKS.
there may Bc No Fight In Arkansas
After All.

Hot Springs. Ark. Oct. 10.-After
having opened court this morning
Judge Dufiie asked for Sheriff Houpt.
Judge Duffle stated to him that he had
been informed and believed that an at
tempt would be made to bring the Cor
bett-Fitzsimmons fight OF In Hot
Springs. and that he wished to call his
attention TO the fact that In doing so
the principals would be breaking the
laws Of the state and outraging the
dignity Of Arkansas. He would, in
conjunction with Judge league. the
prosecuting attorney. inform the sheriff
at what stage It was his duty TO inter-
fere. The judge further stated to Mr..
Houpt that he had right to call a
posse commitamus, and II would be a
violation OF the law for a citizen so
called upon to refuse to respond.
Little Rock. Ark. Oct. i0.-When
shown the dispatch from Hot Springs
about the action Of Judge Dutiie in con-
nection with the Corbett-Fitzsimmon
fight, Governor Clark said that the
news was not surprising to him. He
expected as much OF Judge Dufiie.

IN Houpt. Governor Clark was en-
phatic in saying that since Judge Duff
fie had taken the initiative In the prem
ises, II would be very easy matter to
stoD the fight.

GOOD SILVER NEWS
THE PRICE IS CLIMBING AND
THE WORLD NOTICES 1T.
before the Collapse Of tho Metal Western
Railroads We're Not Talking About
Receivers and Prosperity Reignsd.

New York. Oct. 1o.-The upward ten
dency Of the market Tor silver is at
tracing close attention both here and
In Europe. The headquarters of the
speculation In silver is in London. but
it's price, among other influences. has a
distinct bearing upon the securities OF
several OF our railway systems as well
as those of the Mexican lines. The rise
In silver, II continued, would affect the
last mentioned properties In three sep
arate ways.
First-In their gross earnings, as the
predominant industry In Mexico is the
mining OF silver, which has been con-
tlnued, despite the fall In the price. and
would naturally be stimulated by an
increase in its values. This would, of
course, mean increased earnings OF the
roads which traverse the mining dis
tricts. SecondZThe roads would be
benefited by a reduction of their oper-
ating expenses, about one-thlrd of
which are paid in gold. Third-A high
price for silver increases the capacity
Of the roads to meet their fixed charg-
es. which are payable in gold.
AS an Illustration. 1t has been esti-
mated that II the Mexican Central rail-
road received the same price In 1894 for
silver as that obtained In 1892, instead
of deficit of s75o,000 for 1894. as ac-
tually shown. the road would have
earned a substantial surplus. In the
United States, the Rocky mountain
roads would be favorably affected by
further appreciation in the price Of the
white metal. and more particularly the
people who are interested IN the reha-
bllitation OF the Union Pacific system.
When the silver collapse occurred the
road went into the hands of receivers.
although no charges OF irregularities
or incompetency were brought against
the management. II was simply a case
OF lost earning power, due TO the fact
that the sustaining Industry OF the re-
gions through which a large portion OF
the road traversed had been paralyzed.

father ordered her to drop the ac-
quaintance. The doctor returned to
this city. which made Mr.. Peterson be-
heve that his commands had been
obeyed. but such was not the case. for
the couple kept up a correspondence.
