IS JIM CORBETT AFRAID?
His New Orleans interview Indicates
That He IL.

"S NC" Orieahs sntervtew Indicates
That lie Is.
New ORLEANS, La, Oct. The
opinion Is expressed here by certain
sporting men hat Corbett is building
up a foundation to get out OF his fight
II possible. 1t was noticed that to
every newspaper man who inter.
viewed him, Corbett talked only on
n subject, and that was on the many
strings that were attached to the Fitz.
simmons stake. Every conversation
the pugilist INDUCED in this subject
would prominently be brought for
ward by him.
When 1t is taken into consideration
that the attachments against Fitzsim.
mons money in Dryers hands were
issued more than n month ago, and
Corbett RETAINED saying anything
about 1t at that time, give rise to the
suspicion that the que of John
L.. sullivan has kept this rs his last
card.
Corbctt very bluntly said that Fitx-
simmons would have to put up $40, 900
in the Stockholders hands, without an
attachment tied to it, or he would NOT
fight. He claims that Fitzsimmous
only has $1,000 Of the side bet no, the
other $1,000 being attached by the Z
metropolitan Printing company and
Attorney Friend, formerly the Aus.
tralian's lawyer. Corbett Is claiming
that Phil Dwyer told him just before
he left New York that IL he won he
would get but 81, 600 Of the side bet,
Corbett also says hat he will fight
Fitkslmmons for the side bet alone, but
puts in the old proviso that siO,O 900 un-
attached must be put up.
Local sporting men are of the opin-
ion that this provision Of Corbett's
will occasion considerable trouble be.
fore October 81. just why the cham
pion Is anxious to have the referee So
lected at this time cannot be learned.
Both Corbett and his manai\,r Billy
Brady, are clamoring for theS referee
to be chosen Immediately. When
asked the difference 1t would make in
selecting the referee the day before
the fight, they say that in such an i'm.
portant case as this the referee should
be known several weeks ahead In or.
der to give confidence to the public. 4
The general feeling in New Orleans
Is that the fight will never take place

The old-time visionary inventor has given
place to the practical, Woodworking pro-
fessional inventor of to-day.
The successful inventor must now be a
business man as well as man of meehan-
ical ideas.
The high tension of the nervous system,
often kept up for months and months,
makes tremendous drafts upon the health
of those busy brain workers. Many sue
cumb to nervous prostration when they
seem just on the point of surmounting
every difficulty.
Of all the countless recent useful inven-
tons none has passed through so many or
SO rapid course of Improvements as the

machine is undoubtedly the Williams

RED CANYON MINE DISASTER
AN INQUEST CONDUCTED BY
EMPLOYEES OF THE
COMPANY.
OF COURSE, No ONE Is HELD
RESPONSIBLE, BUT SUITS FOR
DAMAGES WILL ENsUE.

EVANSTON, WYo., March 29.--In the
case of the sixty-one men killed in the Red
Canyon mine disaster on the Goth, the
Coroner's jury, composed of Bishop James
Downs, foreman of the Union Pacific mines
at Red Canyon, DR.. Gamble, the coal com
pany's physician, and James Wears, a
miner, after four days spent in examining
witnesses and investigating the matter,
returned verdict this evening as follows
We, the jury, do find that the above-named
persons (enumerating the sixty-one who were
killed) came to their death by being killed in
an explosion in No. mine at Red Canyon,
Wyo., March 90, 1895, the cause of said explo-
sion apparently occurring from iredamp and
possibly augmented by coaldust.
Over twenty witnesses were examined and
the most intense interest was manifested
by all classes of citizens. The Prosecuting
Attorney of the county attended the in
quest in behalf of the people and the firm
of Clark g. Beard looked after the interest
of the company.
William Graham, whose son lost his life
in the mine, foreman off No. 6 mine, also
operated by the Central Pacific, has re-
signed his position with the intention, it is
believed, of bringing immediate suit
against the company for the death of his
boy.
The firm of n. Beeman & Co., operating
the store at the Red Canyon mines from
which the miners bought their supplies,
have extended the credit of the families of
all persons lost in the explosion from $40
to $40 each, amounting in all to $3.50.
Relief funds and stores are pouring in
generously and nobody will be allowed to
suffer A careful canvass of the situation
shows 4S widows, 1856 orphans and about
80 other persons formerly wholly Deepen
dent upon those who lost their lives.

GRAND LARCENY,

QUIRT SHOULD HAVE WON
ANOTHER HARD DAY FOR THE
TALENT, Two FAvoRITEs ONLY

Lead pipes, cast irons, mortals, lay downs
and all sorts of cinches were hung up on
the peg at the track yesterday, and the
only ones that beat 'em were those that

The six-furlong handicap, with Quirt,
imp. Vigor, Annette, Jack Richelieu and

the card. Imp. Vigor, with ninety-six

THOSE IRREPREssIBLE GIRLS.


They &c On AnOther Riot ut the Jurenile
Home.
CHICAGO, ILL, March 29.-The girls in
the Home for Juvenile Offenders, who Gre
ated so much trouble last night by smash
ing all the dishes and windows III the
place, INDUCED in another riot tonight.
They had gone to their rooms for the night,
when, at given signal, they began to
scream so they could be heard for fully a
block. This proving rather tame sport,
they began to tear down the frail parti-
tons between the sleeping-rooms.
AS soon as number of girls were con-
gregated in one room they would make an
assault upon the room, battering in the
doors and smashing the furniture. The
matron and her assistants were utterly I'M
able to control the girls, and finally call
was made for the police. The patrol-wag-
ons filled with officers hurried to the home,
and after a hard struggle, during which
some of the girls fought like wild Indians,
they were all locked up in rooms the par
titions of which are proof against any at
tempts they can make to tear them down.
There was no especial cause for the out
break tonight.

from SKIES 10 Az to l. Jack Richelieu at
one time reached 8 to 1, but after Barney
Schrieber put few hundred on his horse
many of the crowd followed him, and he
went to the post to 1.
Flynn immedia tely sailed out in front
with Vigor when the flag sent them away
TO most excellent start. Quirt was hot
after him, and heading the imported colt
at the half, led Don Fulano into the stretch
by two lengths. Jack Richelieu at this
| yoint was fourth. Quirt maintained her
lead on the outside, with Don Fulano and
Annette fighting for the place. Griffin I'M
doubtedly thought it impossible that he
could be beaten out, and was taking things
very. Ieisurely. By superb riding Carr
came like a cyclone next the raft and
nipped Quirt out the shortest of heads
right at the wire. 1t was a splendid piece
OF riding and Carr was roundly. cheered
Finishing third, Annette was disqualified
for fouling and third place given TO Don

The knockouts began in the. first race.
The speedy gray mare, Oracle S, who had
absented herself for some time, made her
temperance and was backed down from

believe, and in the rush to get train
probably forgot her speed, for she didn't
have 1t with her. She led until rounding

"JUDAS,JUDAS,' THEY SHOUT
CHICAGO PROPERTY-OWNERS MAKE
1T LIVELY FOR THE ALDER
MEN.
THEY PROTEST IN VAIN AGAINST
GRANTING A RAILROAD FRAN
CHISE.

CHICAGO, ILL, March 29.-For short
time this afternoon there was every symp-
tom of riot in the committee-room of the
City Council 1t resulted from discus
sion of the ordinance granting the Calumet
and Blue Island Railroad certain rights
along the Lake Shore in the suburb of
South Chicago.
The residents of South Chicago declared
this would destroy the finest residence
portion of South Chicago. About two hun
dred determined property-owners were on
hand to assist in the deliberations.
J. B. Taylor opened the argument for the
property owners. He numerically hurled
all sorts of charges at the Aldermen who
spoke favorably of the ordinance. He
alleged that they were betraying the PEG
pie, and a well-trained chorus took up this
charge and cried out 'Judas, Judas"
Alderman Coughlin tried to stop this
kind of talk. but he was baked by Taylor,
who turned in again and said: "Why
don't you fellows come to us when you
want money? We have lots of money"
"Not as much as the railroads, cried the
chorus.
Alderman Kunz tried to make himself
heard, but was shut off with charge that
he was wearing the railroads colors, and
this was succeeded by another chorus,
alleging that divers and sundry Aldermen
who are members of the committee had
taken money to vote for the ordinance.
The committee finally decided to report
to the Council in favor of the railroad, and
when the Aldermen declared themselves
they were greeted with insulting names
and charged with thievery and boodling
and other methods of separating people
from the ir money.
