north of here and brought back. The
Hot Springs sheriff vigorously pro-
tested, but the sheriff Of this county,
acting under Instructions from Gov.
Clarke, ignored the Hot Springs officer
on the ground that he had no au-
thority to serve papers of any kind
outside Of his w county. Ntzsim-
mons and Julian were taken from the
train and the remainder Of the party
proceeded to Hot Springs. Fitzsim-
mons and Julian will be taken over
the Cotton Belt to Pine Bluff and from
there to Little Rock. Both appeared
in good humor, although under ar
rest, and said it was useless to fret
over such a thing 10 It was unavoid-
able on their part. The trial Of their

er, In an interview with a representa-
tive of the Associated Press, gave a
history of their meeting with Fitzsim-
mons. We met Fitzsimmons and
Julian at Marshall and informed them
that It was impossible to get through
Texarkana without being arrested;
that Mr.. Houpt and myself had a var
rant for his arrest; that we wanted to
serve ours first, so that we could take
him to the Springs. II fatty refused

myself. adding hat Corbett and party
had passed through Texarkana with
out molestation and that he proposed
to do the same. On orr arrival at
Texarkana Mr.. Julian was more than
anxious to see the color Of Miller

the Hot Springs authorities he called
upon officers in the slespar to have

Hot Springs, Ark, Nov. 1.-THE big
fight Is put over until next week and
there is no chance of Corbett and
Fitzsimmons meeting in the ring be-
fore Tuesday at the very earliest.
Chances are that anybody arriving
here enrly mex Wednesday morning
will see the fight II 1t ome of. There
will, however, be a fight on Monday
afternoon at 3 o'clock, when Mahsr
and O'Donnell will meet with five
ounce gloves In Wilmington Park,
two miles from the center Of the town.
This match is definitely settled, and
unless the state interferes In very
forCible manner 1t will be fought out
according to programme. Smith and
Ryan will probably be given a chance
on Tuesday.
Little Rock, Ark, Nov. 3.-There Is
TO- q probability that the big fight
will come of. The time will be with
In a week, and the location somewhere
in Louisiana, the exact spot to be de-
termined. This much was decided az
ter the trials of Corbett and Fitzsim-
mons had been adjourned,
This leaves the situation thus:
Brady, for Corbett, has made a propo-
sition TO fight; Julian. for Fitzsim-
mons, has accepted 1t, and If the lat

tie will probably come of at a place
as yet in doubt. The Maher-O'Donnell

O'Donnell-M aher fight Monday after
noon, was held at the Arlington hotel
and resulted In the withdra wal Of the
offer and the announcement that the
bout is off. This sent aglimmering the
last hopes Of a fight in Garland coun- |
ty, unless the pugnacious prinsipals
resort to a breach Of the peace In the
shape Of plain assault and battery.
