To-day there was a conference between

Corbett and Martin Julian appearing for
Fitzsimmons. Tomorrow ruling OF the
supreme court may change the deati
nation. In view of this fact, and anti
cipating favorable decision, Dan Stuart
called parties interested together and
stated the conditions. Stuart wanted q
postponement until Nov. 15. He argued
that even if the court of final resort
sustained the decision of the chancellor
it would take that long to restore
confidence and get crowd tc

The Pistol Route.

ST. PACL.. oct. 2i.--At 1 o'clock this
+ II. Adams, a newspaper man,
committed suicide in front Of the Sher-
man house, where he had been staying
for several days He had been restless
al night aud at about the hour named
came down atstrg, entering the main
Office. He went outside and, drawing a
revolver, shot himself through the head.
The night clerk and othere who hap
pened to be present werA alarmed by the
shot, and, running out of the hotel,
found Adams lying in his own blood,
death having come almost Instantly.
Deceased was 15 years of age and editor
of the New Whatcom Revelle and was
a conspicuous and popular figure in
North Pacific coast journalism. His
former home WAS Madison, Wis. from
where he went to North Dakota and
later to the coast.

man was ''too fine," and that to train for
several days after the original time
would mitigate against the physical con-
dition of Fitzsimmons. A proposition
was then made to have the men fight in
private for the main stake of $4,000 a
side. Here Stuart interiected an offer Of
an added $4,000. Brady was again will
ing, but Julian demurred. He opined
that the club, if it pulled the fight off on
the 3lst of October, would have to make
good its full promise of 1000. Stuart
asked for time. Corbett granted it..
Fitzsimmons exacted his full pound Of
flesh. As the matter stands at this mo-
ment, 10 use the words of Howard b.
Hackett, the highest pugilistic authority
in America, Corbett wants to fight, Fit2
does not. The fight is divided between
Little Rock, Hot Springs and Corpus
Christi The local parties are before the
supreme court at Little Rock, while the
pugiIistic encounter is on long range be-
tween Corbett in Hot Springs and Fitz
at Corpus Christi, represented respective
ly by their managers. There is even
more doubt from the indications at this
writing of an agreement between the
lighters than there is between the courts.
Gov. Clark was expected to throw a
bomb today with sensational effects 1t
has been broadly intimated that he has
one loaded and prlmed ready to hurl and
the general opinion was that it would be
military missile. He has not yet
thrown it, however. and indications now
are that he has concluded to be little
more careful about handling ii than was
supposed two days ago lie concluded
to await deliverance from the supreme
court in review of the chancellor decis-
ion. 1t is no 60 Corbett and Fitzsim
mons will not fight in this city. WHAT
Gov. Clark mas been making such dis
play at doing Fitz has done easily and
without much tlourishing Of trumpets
The Florida Athletic club at l0:3O to-
day declared the contest between Cor
bett and Fitzsimmons off. Martin Ju-
liam, Fltz's manager, refused to agree to
postponement of the date as desired by
the club. He said Fitz bad trained to
fight Oct. 81 and was unwilling to train
two weeks longer. Moreover, Filz
bad contracted to fight Corbett to
finish and he was unwilling
to change the program to a boxing
match for points. 1t is given out that
Julian will have Fitz in Dallas October
81, where his contract stipulates the
fight shall take place, and claim a for
feture Of $500 This is the latest
status of the case aud the most decisive
knockout in the whole proceedings. Any
amount oi disgust and disappointment
ia visiGe on all sides at the turn affair
have taken. The latest program is to
substitute Peter Maher for Fitz in Il
contest with Corbett and another man
to be found will be depended upon TO
entertain Steve ODonnell.

THE JURY SEALS HIS DOOM
The Prisoner Loses His Nerve, His
Face Pales, He Trembles
His Claims.

HELENA, Oct. 19.--The jury in the case
of William Biggerstatf brought in a ver-
dict this morning Of murder in the first
degree The report that verdict had
been reached flew like wild fire over the
building and in less than five minutes
the court room was crowded with spec
tators. The attorneys in the,ca for
both sides were present, and no time
prisoner, In spite of the large crowd in
the court room a deathike silence pre-
vailed, The jury had iust.taken seats
when the prisoner arrived aCcOmp panied
by Deputy Sheriff X einscb midt,w who had
been dispatched to fetch the~prsoner as
soon as it was announced that the jury
had decided upon verdict. \ faint,
sickly smile overspread his face as the
door opened to admit him, as he entered
the room to hear his fate. 1t was ap-
parent to all that the noticeable nerve
and pluck he had evinced all through
the trial had deserted and failed him at
the last moment. When ordered to
stand up and face the jury and hear
their verdict, he was too weak to stand
alone and leaned up against, the table in
front Of him. He commenced to
shake harder and seemed ready
to collapse entirely. When the
words, ''Guilty of murder: lin the
first degree, reached his ears as the
foreman of the jury uttered them, he
paled still more notlceably than when he
had entered the room only few inmates
before. His face assumed that death
pallor, which makes it so ghastly, and
his fingers clutched convulsively at the
air as his arms hung limp and lifeless at
his side. Upon hearing the verdict of
the jury he was immediately taken from
the court room and conducted to the
jail across the street and placed in his
cell. Biggerstatf claims that some of the
witnesses had been bribed. He also says
that the fact he had been living with a
white woman was detrimental to him.

Mixed Juriee.

It seems to ME that in most cases the
perfect jury would be one made up OF
men and women in equal numbers The
fundamental idea of the jury is that it
affords a good average opinion on the
case before it, and that this average is
more likely to approximate justice than
the decision of any number of legal ex.
perts. In view of the admitted differ
ences between the mental operations Of
plen and women, would not the intro
duction Of the latter into the jury boz
give a juster average of human sent1
ment than is secured under the present
system? There is another consideration,
less important in theory, but probably OF
great practical value Hunger and thirst
and impatience of confinement often
drive the masculine jury to decisions
which must cause the goddess of the
bandaged eyes to shed copious tears BIZ
hind the voluminous folds which securs
her impartiality. By her established in
difference to creature comforts woman
would raise the moral tone of juries and
compel decisions on abstract principles
When protracted session was in pros,
pect, she would first make up her mind
and then take out her embroidery and
wait for the other Jurors 10 come around
Co her position. kate Fields Washing
