LITTLE ROCK, Ark, Oct. 30.-Gov-
ernor Clarke has called out the First
regiment to stop the fight between
CGrbett and Fitzsimmons. The COM
panies at Fine Bluff, Helena, Cabot and
Jacksonville have been ordered to be
ready to march this afternoon. The
Mccarthy Light Guard, the Fletcher
Rifles and the Eagle Light Battery of
this city have also been notified to be
ready to move at p. m. The captain
of the Helena company says he has
forty-eight men ready TO march with
1000 rounds of ammunition; Forest City
has thirty-eight men with plenty of
cartridges, all eager for the trip. The
plan now is to send about 100 militia
men to Hot Springs from this city to-
day and mass the other companies at
Little Rock, whence they may be sent
to Hot Springs early tomorrow.
The governor is stiEl determined the
fight shall not occur. He says he pro-
poses to exhaust every resource at his
command. General Taylor, commander
of the state militia, was in consulta-
ton with Governor Clarke today, and
Adjutant General Whipple and Colonel
HollemLerg OF the First regiment, are
perfecting arrangements for the move
ment of the troops.

said that Corbett would be willing to

A SHAM---A SHAME.
LINCOLN MONUMENT AT sPRIHG-
FIELD MUST COME DOWN.
Too Flimsy For Repair-A Brick
Structure With n Thin Veneer of
Granite-Disgrace to the state.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, Oct. 3O.-The
Lincoln monument at Oakridge GENE
terry, which has for the past twenty
years been admired by thousands from
all over the world, will have to be
repaired, and, besides. its construction
is such that it will not admit of re-
pair.
During the last session of the gen.
eral assembly the historic pile was
turned over to the state and $50 600
was appropriated for repairs and a
law making the governor, state treas
urer and state superintendent of in
struction trustees of the monument to
care for it and make the much needed
repairs. When the trustees set about
to arrange for the repairs they discov-
cred that the magnificent monument
erected to the memory of Honest Old
Abe" was a sham and fraud. What
appeared to be huge blocks of granite
were nothing but thin slabs laid over
brick
Governor Altgeld stated tonight that
the monument could not be repaired
and made permanent. He favors tear
ing down the structure and erecting a
solid granite shaft in its stead. He
says the trustees have nearly money
enough to do this, though they do not
feel like taking the step unless request
ed to do SO by the surviving members
Of President Lincoln's family.
The Lincoln monument was complet-
ed in October, 1874, and cost 500, O0e,
which amount was raised by popular
subscription. Instead of being granite,
it is a brick monument and has We
neering of granite slabs three inches
thick The trustees feel that the state
of Illinois should have a monument
to Lincoln that is not sham. but a
solid structure.

LONDON. Oct SO.-A dispatch to the
Times from Constantinople says: The
sultan declines to accept the names
which the grand vizier has suggested
for THE Armenian commission. He
wishes to have men who are in his own
confidence.
A dispatch to the Daily News from
Constantinople says that the massa-
ere at Marash has ceased and the mis-
sionaries are safe. A demand has
been made to the British embassy and
TO the Armenian legation that relief
operations in Sassoun shall cease.
The Daily News OiberaD in an edi-
torial on the foregoing news says:
This is a fresh proof of the designs
entertained at the palace. In such a
demand there can only be a most
peremptOry and contemptous negative.
Lord Salisbury's Iukewarm and per-
functory references to the Armenian
question, in his speech at Waterford,
come at a very opportune moment"

Salisbury made a speech at Walford
today to an audience which included
Earl CoWper, Earl BrowrEee. the Earl
Of Clarendon, the Earl of Essex. the
Earl of Dudley, Baron Rothschilds
Hyde and a number of conservative
members of parliament. During the
course of his remarks the prime minis
ter referred to the agricultural cues

Corn laws we have had the strongest
cause to lament that, though the pro-
tectlOniStS resisted, their warnings had
not been listened to more carefully
The repealers secuted the idea of its
injury, but, a lowering of prices result
ed and free trade has almost killed
husbandry in several counties" The
marquis did not blame those who mad
passed the free trade, but they should
have thought more of the peculiar bur
den under which the land Iaborer was
yoked and should have lightened the
worst of those burdens when
it could have been done with
ease. He then reverted to the
foreign policy of Great Britain and

Before Taking.

HOT SPRINGS, Oct 9O.-Fitzsim-
mons and Julian have been warned of
the danger at TeXarkana of falling into
the hands of the officers of Pulaski
county armed with warrants Issued by
Judge Martin at Little Rock. 1t is
possible they may leave the Texas and
Pacific train at Marshall, Texas, pro-
coed to Shreveport, thence north into
Arkansas by way of Lewisville. If this
plan is adopted, the party cannot we'll
reach here before tomorrow.
Fitzsimmons was met 1t Marshall
Texas, by Sheriff Houpt and the party
left at once for Shreveport. The route
from that place will be through Alex
ander, Pine Bluff, thence over the cot
ton belt to Camden, from Camden to
Guerdon, thence to Malvern. The sher-
ifs of Clarke, Lafayette and Ouchita
counties have been notified to arrest
Fitzsimmons and Julian and hold
them for the sheriff of Pulaski county,
AS the party are on a special train, it
is improbable that they will be ar
rested.

TEXARKANA, Oct 3O.-Sheriff

who left Texarkana on the Iron Noun

correspondent interrogated Fitzsin-
mons and Julian while they were
here Both said they were ready for
the fight, but could not say when or
where it could take place, as they
were under arrest. Both denounced
Corbett and the Florida Athletic club
for doing everything in their power to
prevent and stave off the fight to a
later day. They declared Corbett was
not In condition now, and hence de-
sired to put it off. Fitzsimmons said
he had trained continuously and was
never in finer form. Fitzsimmons gives
his weight now at 1872 nornds He and
Julian will claim the $500 forfeit to-
morrow if they can get through to Hot

useless to fret over such q, thing, as
it was unavoidable on their part. The
trial of their case under the warrants
issued by Chancery Judge Martin at
Little Rock will be held tomorrow.
Sheriff Houpt, of Hot Springs, who
sought to carry FitzsimnDns and Ju-
liam to that city under the guise of
arrest, was lost in the shuttle when he

The latter arrested him on the iron

station above, where he telegraphed
