WIN Not Be Consulted Ior q
Day or Two

NEW YORK, June 3.-Dan Stewart of
Dallas, Tex, who is here as a representative
OF syndicate of Dallas men, and forti-
fed with a certified cheek for $Il, 900. to
make arrangements to have the proposed
Corbett- tt-Fitzsimmons fight pulled off in
Dallas, left his hotel today in search of
Information, and called twice at Corbett's
managers office, but did not succeed in
finding Mr. Brady.
Stewart returned to his hotel shortly
after noon and when seen by a rep orter of
the Associated Press. said he had made
an appointment to meet Joe Nendig. the
represen tive of the Florida Athletic
regarding the possibilities of the event
being fought successfully in the Lone
Star state. Mr. Stewart said:
There is no doubt about bringing off
the fight. There is no Texas statute
which will be violated by such an exhi
gentlemen are ANXIOUS to have the fight
take place where they would not have
anything to do with it if there was any
thing illegal about the matter.
The fight, if possible, will take place
in the daytime. We have made piovis-
ional arrangements with the railway
companies, and our friends from the
north and west will have low rates. -
1t Is not likely that the principals,
Cor oett or FItzsimmons, or their man
ayers, will be consulted for Il day or two.
NEW YORK, June 3.-Fitzsimmons,
Joe Vendig and Mr.. Stewart called on
Lawyer Friend at his office this evening
and discussed the pros and cons of the big
mill. They all agreed that everyth ing
looked promising for the mill between
Corbett and Fitzsimmons. Lawyer
Friend said he was quite satisfied with
| the guarantees, and that the affair would
| go through. The Corbett end of it. &C
| cording to Manager Brady, is also salts
fled with the guarantees given by the
| Texas man.
| Later the hackers OF the pugilists met
in an uptowngsporting house, and they
repeated after the conference that they
are confident the fight will be pulled off
in the latter part of October at Dallas.
| AS preliminaries to the contest of the
| championship it is proposed to match the
winners of the Maher-O' Donuell and
| Choynski- fights. soon to be decided.
Tommy Ryan of Chicago and Billy
Smith uf Boston and the best man at the
tied or finish fight are also mentioned.
DALLAS, Tex, June 3.-In pugilistic
and sporting circles it is regared as GER
tain that the fight will take place in
Dallas. The following dispatch was re-
| ceived here today:
| NEW ohh, Juiie D.-AH dlillOSt
certain everything will be closed our way
tom orrow night. Am trying hard to
make terms that will leave the Yankee
money n Texas.
(Signeu) "A. S. STEWART"
The fight will take place during the
state fair, which begins on the 10Th ot
| October and ends on the 3lst. An i'm
mense building enclosing an amphitheater
with a seating capacity of 30, O0O will
| have to be erected for the occasion. This
building will probably be erected just

Tanks says the people on the oil leases
are fleeing for safety, but the fire spreads
so quickly that he cannot see how all oi
them could have been saved. So far as
reported only seven oil bumpers are
missing.
A telephone message at 9:45 O'Clock via
Olean. n. ". from Knapp's Creek. says
the leases of Messrs. Burns, Russell and
Curtis have been tire-swept and fifty rigs
destroyed. Several dwellings Lave been
burned, and should wind arise during
the night, it would likely carry the
flames to Knapps Creek and destroy the
town. Knapps Greek is located on the
mountain between Bradfo.d and Olean
on the Western New York and Pennsyl-
vania and has population of 100.
Telephone messages state that the fire
is raging in the oil fields near here, and
great damage has been done. At the
state line lumber camp of seven dwell
ings at Oilviile Junction, were destroyed,
together with thousands of dollars worth
OF .lumber. The fire may now be said
to extend over the entire northern oil
field Of Pennsylvania. 1t is impossible as
yet to give any computation OF the dam
age or the number of deaths on account
OF the great scope of country which the
tire covers.
RUSSELL CITY, Pa, June 3.-Every
thing between Iron Run and this city is
burned, including all the rigs and tanks
of the Elk OIL company station and the
Standard pump station. The fire has
crossed the railroad at Russell and is
sweeping everything before it with a
strong wind from the west. If the wind
does not change Russell City will be
wiped out before morning.
KANE, Pa, June 3.-Never before
has this place been threatened with so
much destruction as today. The forests
have been on fire since Sunday, dsall
eff orts to check the flames hav e proved
nnayailing. This afternoon at o clock
the fire had spread to West Kane, the
heat being SO intense that the fighters
were driven back, and the people began
to leave their homes fer places OF safety.
Everett spring is dried up and the place
is at the mercy of the flames.
The flames are now in the oil field, and
have burned the oil well rigs owned by
the Griffith company. The Union Oil
company has lost six rigs and three tanks
of oil. James Campbell's saw mill and
over LOCO, 900 feet OF logs have been de-
stroyed.

has signed the pardon of William II.
Buehler, who was sentenced last Fepru-
ary to serve 800 days in the city prison
for dshonorable conduct toward female
prisoner under his charge as deputy
sheriff. He has served less than 100
days. George McCurdy, a young woman
of alleged i'll repute IN every way. swore
that Buehler criminaliy assaulted her
while Ii detained her in custody in the
back room OF his drug store. The alleged
sensational evidence was long and nau-
seating and on IT Buebler was convicted:
Since his imprisonment in the same Jail
with the McCurdy girl he has acted as
trusty, and has quietly improved his
time so that his powerful influence has
worked TO secure his release from the
penalty of his crime.
The notoriously immoral McCurdy girl
is alleged to have confessed that she lied

About His Choice
Associated Press Special Wire

Associated Press Special Wire.
NEW YORK, June "a special to a
local paper from Washington says:
The Hon. Richard Olney of Massachu-
sets, the present attorney general of the
United States, will be the successor of the
late Hon. W. Q. Gresham in the office of
secretary of state. The Hon. edwin +.
Uhl of Michigan will continue in the
office OF assistant secretary of state.
1t has not yet be.n determined who
will be chosen to fill the vacancy in the
attorney generals office created by the
transfer of Mr.. Olney TO the state depart
ment. There has been much speculation
IN Washington as to who would be Mr.
Gresham S successor. The death of the
late secretary was unexpected and il is
doubtful if Mr. Cleveland even perm tied
himself to think of Il possible SUCCESSOR
When the reality of General Gresham S
death came upon the president he was
stunned Then followed the nasty trans
fer OF the body to Chicago, the fuheral
ceremonies. by which Mr. Cleveland was
deeply affected. the hurried return
through the torrid heat to Washington.
where the party arrived late Friday af-
terroon.
1t was not until last night that exec
utive consideration was given to the sub
ject of filling the vacan cy. Secretary
Carlisle and Secretary Lamont were in
vited to the White House after the ar
rival OF the president from Woodley
There is good reason for believing that
the president conferred with the two
secretaries named upon the subject ot
the succession i'll the state department.
A After the retirement of these officials to
their resp""-'ve departments it is known
that ATTIC ney General Olney was sum-
moned co -, Executive Mansion, and it
is almost certain the office of secretary
of state was rendered to and accepted by
Mr. OlnAN
