DILEMMA OF THE sLUGGERs.
No New Battle Ground Yet Decided
on by the Principals.

Austin, Tex, Oct 3.-The great prize
fight legislation is over with and the anti
prize fight BILL which was passed by both
houses yesterday, was sent TO the COVER
nor this afternoon by the senate and he
signed it at 5 o'clock. and it is now law.
This effectually settles question that has
been agitatfng the state for two months
past, and everybody is glad it is over with.
Gov. Culberson received many cOngratu-
latory kilograms from every section to-
day, and he says he feels very proud of
the way the legislature has backed him
up in the matter. The representatives
say that private advices to them from
their homes give evidence that in voting
to quarantine prize fighting from Texas
soil they have done that which meets
with universal approval. The excitement
being over now. the hotel Hobbies are
clear. The legislature will adjourn sine
die Monday and will in the meantime con-
slider some bills purely of a local nature.
Washington, Oct. "A New Orleans
special says: "A telegram from New
York last night stated that as a result of
legislature of Texas, the olympic Club
of this city has made a bid for the fight.
There is no foundation for the report.
The executive board of the club held
meeting last night, but had no authority
to act in the matter and did not consider
it. Under the present construction of the
law in this state, it is not likely that any
bid will be made for the fight"
FL Paso, Tex, Oct. 3.-The city is ex-
cited over the good prospects of the prize
fight being held at Juarez, over the river
in Mexico. A citizens committee is try
ing to raise the guarantee, $4,000 in Mex
lean money, required by the Juarez au-
thorities. Stewart has wired here for in
formation. The Texas and Pacific rail-
road is reported to be ready to put up
5000 to bring the fight to Juarez.
Perry, o. T., Oct. 3.-Dick Plunket one
of the best known sports in the west, tel
egraphed Dan Stewart this afternoon that
Perry would give $4,000 for the Corbett-
Fitzsimmons mill.
Atoka, l. T.. Oct. 3.-The anti-prize
fight bill having passed the Texas legis-
latuse, the prevailing opinion is that the
Indian Territory is regarded as the most
available place for the Corbett-F itzsim-
mons fight. The Choctaw council con-
venes on the Sth inst. 1t will be called
upon to consider the ACCESSIBILITY of pass
ing a law prohibiting prize fighting on its
domain The missionaries in the terri
tority will strenuously oppose any effort
to procure a license to fight in the Indian
Territory.

Woodvine Wins the senshOre ana

Gravesend, N. Y, Oct. 3-Although the
weather was perfect to-day for racing
purposes and an attractive card was pre-
scented, the attendance was small. The
sport was interesting throughout, close
finishes being the feature of the day.
There were two stake races down for de-
cision. the Seashore stakes, of the value
of $780, for 2-year-olds, and the Canary
stakes of the same value, for 3-year-olds
and upwards. The former event was cap
tured by Woodvine, the odds-on favor
lite.
The maiden 2-year-old race was won
handily by King of Bohemia, with Sag
amore second; and the handicap event
for FLIES, ? years old resulted in vic
tory for Sweet Favorable, who beat Wild
Violet out by a short head. A summary
follows:

IRON Brought Them-EIatiOn I'm
Rirmfngham Over the Successful
10 of Pig Iron Made in That Dis

steel.
baltimore. Nd, Oct. 3-Reports to the
,r,nufacturer's Record show that the high
,,-iees of cotton is greatly stimulating bus
mess interests of the south: and while
rurcbasings Of goods do not yet show any
tsrv large increase, merchants and busI-
moss men generally are anticipating q
great Improvement in all directions It
is estimated that the higher price of cot
ION as compared with last year and the
increase in grain production will make a
NET difference to southern farmers of over
s00oOOOOO as compared with 1894.
In iron interests there is considerable
sIation in Birmingham over the success of
the use of pig iron made in that district
an the manufacture of basic steel. The
president of the Sloss Iron and Steel Com
pany of Birmingham, in a letter to the
Manufacturers Record, says: Il think the
successful manufacture of basic pig and
its sale and use by the best steel manu-
facturers in the United States is the best
thing which has happened to this district
since my connection with the iron bust
ness. While all of US who knew our BUSH
ness felt confident that we would have
no trouble in making basic pig, it had not
been demonstrated. Its complete demon
stration will, in my judgment, cause, in
the early future, the building of a large
steel plant here and l feel confident that
We will demonstrate that Birmingham
can manufacture basic steel more cheaply
than any other point in the world, just
as We have demonstrated that we could
beat the world in the manufacture of pig
iron for foundry purposes"

Atlanta, Ca, Oct. Representative ]. A.
Barnes of Richmond county has rendered
his resignation to-day to Gov. Atkinson,
and it was accepted. Mr.. Barnes resigned
to accept a federal position in the pension
office in Tennessee. The resignation has
been withheld for some time in order that
the resignation of Mr.. Barnes and the

Augusta, Ga, Oct 3.-The resignation
of Hon. John A. Barnes as representa-
tive from Richmond, which has been for

A PoPULIsT MADE RIDICULOUS.
The McIaurin-Burkett Debate Re-
suits DisastrousIy for the Latter.


Jackson. Miss, Oct S.-The democratic
ana populist nominees for governor A. ].
McLaurin and Frank Burkett, discussed
the political issues of the day at Repre-
sentative hall tonight. Every seat in the
hall was filled. 1t has been several years
since opposing parties had a joint debate
here and a large audience was present.
Mr.. Burkett went over the regular pOpu-
lite ground, arraigning the old parties for
high tariffs and opposition to silver, hold
ing the democracy responsible for the
hard times and the panic through which
the people have been struggling the past
two years.
Mr.. McLaurins reply was crushing. He
held his opponent up to ridicule and prov
ed his Inconsistencies in happy style. Mr..
McLaurin stated, among other things,
that while he was not here to defend Mr..
Cleveand's financial policy, he believed
him an honest man. There is no doubt of
the defeat of populism in Mississippi. Mr..
McLaurin will be elected governor by an
overwhelming majority.
