THE CHAMPIONS IN TRAINING.
COrbett Gives an Excellent Exhibition
of his Training Methods.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30-James J. Cor
bett gave an exhibition of his training
methods in Madison Square Garden this
afternoon and evening and so far as the
spectators could Judge he is in excellent
condition He boxed, wrestled. exer-
cised with weights, punching bag and
leather ball for almost three hours at
each exhibition, boxing with three men,
wrestling with two and tossing the ball
to half dozen. In the boxing bouts
with Steve O'DOnnell, the experts said
he showed his old time form.
In response to a demand for a speech,
Corbett said:
Ladies and gentlemen: / am going to
Texas to morrow to get myself ready to
meet Boo FitzsimmOns have the utmost
confidence in the Florida Athletic Club,
and, from what you have seen in the
papers, you can easily see that we are
willing to fight, and we do not wish to
come back from Texas without settling
the question. For my part, am willing
that the Florida Athletic Club shall pull
off the fight wherever they choose"
The champion looked fat, but he can
easily reduce the pauuch ne is carrying
within mouth with steady training.

The Texas Legislature Assembling.
AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 80 - My TWEEN
ty-fve members of the Legislature have
arrived up to to night, and judipg from
present indications it is hardly probable
that a quorum will answer to the roll
call tomorrow. A poll of both houses by
interested parties develops the fact that
from public utterance and well-known
sentiment Of the members that the anti
prize-fght bill will go through
the Senate with the emergency clause
with votes to spare. The fight to kill
the emergency clause will be waged
bitterly in the House by Dallas people. A
committee of business men will arrive
here from Dallas and will plead with
legislative committee to knock the
emergency clause on the ground that it
will confseate thousands of dollars worth
| OF property in Dallas which have
been outlaid Con this fight. Up
to the present writing, of the nineteen
members of the House, nine are opposed
to the emergency clause, and of this
number four are out and out antagonists
of any anti prize fight bill at all.
The fact that up to the present time
one poll of the House breaks even gives
the friends of the Dallas fight cause to
feel good, and their attorney, W. P.
Allison, to night stated that he believed
the emergency clause would be defeated
in the House.

RIoTOUs GEORGIA POrULIsTs
Armed Third Party Men Take Charge
Ofthe Registration Books.

ATLANTA, GA, Sept. 30.-There are
signs of trouble in the Tenth Congress
si0nal District over the special election
for Congressman to be held Wednesday,
Tom Watson, Populist, and J. 9. O.
Black, Democrat, being the candidates.
A special from Augusta, to-day says:
A party of Democrats, including two ex-
pert registry clerks who went up to Lin
coin county to examine iut0 the regis
tration books returned this morn
Jag They say that as soon
as they arrived that runners
were sent out into the country marshal
ing armed bands of Populists, who in
Inundated and threatened violence to the
committee at every step. They were not
allowed to see the books and were told
not to touch them, nor to assist the regis
trars in expediting the votes.
The efforts of the committee were fruit
less.
The registrars have thrown out a
number of voters, but the P0pulists
openly and boldly declare that every
man in Lincoln county that wished to
shall vote, registry or no registry. The
frauds perpetrated there are an outrage
on law and order, and even upon
decency itself.
POpulists in the country say that had
Boykin Wright visited there when he
intended, a few days since, he would
not have returned alive.

BRACING DURRA NT's ALIBI.
Several of His College Mates Will
Probably be Put on the Stand.

SAN FRANCISCO, CAL, Sept. 30.-Since
the adjournment of the Durrant trial last
Friday, the prisoners attorneys have
visited Cooper Medical College several
times. and have had frequent interviews
with students whom they will put on the
stand in hopes of bracing up the alibi
which the defence hopes to establish.
1t is thought several of the college
boys will testify to having seen the &C
cused between i and 2 o'clock on the
afternoon of April 3, but if they will
give evidence of the fact that Darrant
was in the college until $3.50 on the
afternoon, it is not known.
When the proceedings are opened to-
morrow Charles Lenahan will be called
to the stand to tell of having taken a
diamond ring somewhat resembling the
one worn by Blanche Lamont, to pawn
broker Oppsnheim. At first a great deal
of importance was attached to this wit
ness by the defense, but of late his tes
timony has lost weight, as ne did not
visit the store until the afternoon OF
April 18th.
District Attorney Barnes and Captain
of Detectives Leese are getting ready to
put in their rebuttal testimony, which
they expect to make almost rs strong as
the direct. They will have lot of
writing experts to combat and testi-
mony that might implicate Rev. j. g..
Gibson, in having written the address on
the newspaper in which Miss Lamont's
rings were sent to her aunt, Mrs. Noble.

EX-SENATOR MAHoNE DYING.
Stricken With Paralysis at His Hotel
in Washington Yesterday.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 80 -Ex Senator
Malone, of Virginia, suffered stroke
of paralysis at an early hour this morn
ing, at his room at Cham berlain's Hotel.
His physicians, Drs. Wales and Baker,
were in consultation throughout The
afternoon and think his chances Of re
covery very doubtful The relatives of
the ex Senator have been summoned by
telegraph.
The entire right side of the sufferer is
paralyzed, i1cluding the rigdt arm and
leg He is unable TO speak, except few
inarticulate sounds. He has maintained
consciousness, however, and seeks, as
best he car, to assist those who are min
i8tering 10 his comfort.
The exact time General Malone was
stricken is in doubt. He retired about
10 o'c.ock last night, and, up to
that time, Was in excellent health
and spirits, and had given no intima
ton Of feeling unwell. No sound was
heard from his room after he retired
At 10 o'clock this morning, Mr.. Long,
manager of the hotel, went to the
Generals room to call him. He found
that he had been vomiting and was I'M
able to speak. This last feature was at
tributed to exhaustion incident to the
vomiting, and for time no significance
was attached to the Generals failure to
talk. DIR. Wales, ex-Surgeon General
of the Navy and longtime friend OF
Gen. Malone, was sent for but could
not be found.
In the meantime it became evident
that the Generals illness was serious,
and Dr. Baker was called in. He at
once pronounced it case of paralysis.
DR.. Wales arrived shortly afterwards,
and with DR.. Baker, took charge of the
case. Gen. Malone appeared TO be suf
fering no Jain. By motions of his head
aud few faint sounds, he made his de
sires known Mr.. Edmund Waddil, the
ex-Senator's Secretary was with him,
and at the ex Senator's reques-, notified
the members of the family to come.
Ex- Senator Malone was very low at
midnight and his physicians feared that
he might not survive the night. His
wife and daughter arrived at IL o'clock
and were at his bedside.

THE BIG ADVANCE IN COTTON.
1t Causes the Greatest Excitement oil
the Season in New Orleans.

New ORLEANS, La, Sept 1910 day
witnessed the greatest excitement of the
season in the cotton market, the fluctua-
tons being rapidly and exceedingly wide
and the sales large, aggregating rs, 800
bales.
The trading was principally in
January contracts, the sale of that month
reaching 100, 800 bales The fluctuations
in December were very wide, selling at
one time 10 points above Saturdays
closing, afterwards declining 20
points and finally closing at a net gain
for the day of II points. The opening
was very irregular, at an advance Of
from Is points on some months to 20
points on January Liberal realizing
sales soon caused a decline, bat the
market promptly absorbed all the cot
ton offered and gradually strengthened
at net gain of IS to Is points. On the
curb, after the close, prices were at least
3 points higher.
The cause of REINFORCEMENT was the
advance Of 6-64d in Liverpool, which
was greater than expected. This I'M
provement abroad was due to the eircu
lar of President Lane, OF the Planters
Association, estimating the crop at
6, 500, 900 bales maximum. The advance
was also assisted by the low temperature
over portions of the cotton belt. The
receipts at New Orleans will be 1000 to
5000 against II ,941 the same day last
year and Is, $40 the year before last.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 0-The

EXECUTIVE MANSION, Sept. 80
Lieut.. Gen. John Schofield having
reached the age emitting him to relief
from active military service, he is, in
accordance with the provisions of law,
hereby placed upon the retired list of the
army, to date September 30, 1895, with
all the pay and allowances belonging to
his rank upon such retirement.
sit is with regret that the President
makes the announcement that the coun-
try is to lose from the command of its
army this distinguished General, who has
done so much for it's honor and eflicien-
cy. His gallantry ia war challenges the
admiration of all his countrymen, while
they will not fail to gratefully remember
and appreciate how faithfully he has
served his country in times of peace by
his splendid and successful performance
of civil, as we'll as military duties.
Lieutenant Gen. SchOh5ld's career, ex
hioiting an unvarying love for his pro
fession, a jealous care Of honor and good
name, a just apprehension of the subor-
djnstion it exacts and constant mani
festafion of the best traits Of true Ameri
capisms, furnishes to the army an ex-
ample of inestimatable value aud should
teach all our people that the highest
aoldierly qualities are built upon the
keenest sense of the obligations belong
ing to good citizenship.
