Cases ID smissed ut Little Rock. an
Fight TeIk Is Ceasing.

Little Rock, Ark, Nov 1.-The case OF
the state against Fitzsimmons and Julian
was continued this morning till D. m.
by request of Attorney General Kins-
worthy. He said an agreement would b.
reached with the prisoners and the chanc-
es were that the matter would be disposed
Of in the afternoon without troubling tho
court. Fitzsimmons and Julian expressed
themselves today as anxious to accept
either Brady's proposition of yesterday or
the Florida Athletic Clubs proposition to
fight at FL Paso. Julian preferred Tex
as battle-ground, as the $1,000 forfeit Offered
would help pay for lost time, he said, ir
case the fight did not come off. He stated.
however, that he would have $4,000 ready
to accept Brady's proposition today II
possible. The agreement to which Attor
ney General Trustworthy alluded to in
court was that all court proceedings be
dismissed on condition the pugilists leave
the state. NN e 81
This disposes of almost the last chance
to pull off the fight. Brady will agree to
nothing unless. Julian's $4,000 is up, and
there are no signs of its being put up.
Corbett and Brady will leave for New
York soon.
CASES DISMISSED.
The cases against Fitzslmmons, Julian,
Brady and Corbett were dismissed by the

lows Will be given a reasonable time to

NlcARAeuAN CANAL COMMISSION
PRESIDENT Cleveland VIII thorough
Consider the Matter

tOusidSl inc Nd'tST.
Washington, Nov. 2.-President Cleve-
lanw will devote a considerable portion
of his time for the next few days to the
consideration of a report of the United
States Nicaraguan canal commission,
which recently made a thorough exam
ination of the country 1t is proposed to
traverse by an inter-oceanlc waterway.
Although the report has not been made
public, 1t is known to embody the follow
ing points, First. the commission will
declare that the Nicaraguan route is by
far the best for an inter-oceanic canal;
second, while the line laid out by the Nj
caraguan Canal Company Is good in some
respects, a number of deviations from
this line which will make the canal more
feasible and easier to build, are recon-
mended; third, the railroad now in use
is not in good condition. and the prospects
of improving 1t do not seem satisfactory
fourth, the continuous washing down OF
the sand has greatly damaged the work
done on Greytown harbor and the condi-
ton of the soil there seems to be a great
bar to successful work; fifth, government
control of the canal Is recommended and
congress is advised to make it national
undertaking. ~
The tenor of the clause in President
Cleveland's message to the Forthcoming
session of congress will largely depend up
on the nature of the commissions report

ONE OF MS MOST RECENT POEM,

ONE OF MS MOST RECENT POEM.
The Dreamship." Publ shed in the Octo
Der ladies' Home Journal.
One of Mr.. Fields latest poems was
the leading feature of the October num-
Der of the Ladies' Home Journal. 1t
was called THE Dreamship," and fol-
lowed large and beautiful engraving
illustrative of the theme of the poet.
The poem was as follows:
When the world is fast asleep.
Along the midnight skies
AS though 1t were wandering cloud
The ghostly dreamship flies.
An angel stands at the dreamshlp's helm,
An angel stands at the PROV,
And an angel stands at the dreamship's
side,
With a rue-wreath on her brow.
The other angels, silver-crowned,
Pilot and helmsman are,
And the angel with the wreath of rue
Tosseth the dreams afar.
The dreams they fal on rich and poor.
They fall on rich and old;
And some are dreams of poverty,
And some are dreams of gold.
And some are dreams that thrill with ioy.
And some that melt to tears
Some are dreams of the dawn of love.
And some of the old dead years.
On rich and poor alike they fall.
Alike on young and old
Bringing to slumbering earth their lows
Ard sorrows manifold.
The friendless youth in them shall do
The deeds of mighty men,
And dropping age shall feel the grace
OF buoyant youth again.
The king shall be a beggarman,
The pauper be a king
In that revenge or recompense
The dreamship dreams do bring.
So ever downward float the dreams
That are for all and me-
And there is never mortal man
Can solve the mystery.
But ever onward in its course
Along the haunted skies
AS though 1t were a cloud astray-
The ghostly dreamship flies.
Two angels with their silver crowns
Pilot and helmsmen are,
And an angel with a wreath of rue
Tosseth the dreams afar

ing Corea has been obtained at last by
all the powers concerned, for 1t is as
sumed that the following cablegram,
which was handed to Secretary Olney
has been also sent to all the Japanese

In regard to our attitude in Corea.
you are authorized to declare to the fol-

the United States: japanese troops

guilty as well as to protect our lega-
ton, the consulates and subjects and
also to maintain Indispensable commu-
nication with our army, which is still
in occupation of the Lao Tung PENN
sula. The troops intended for the lat
ter purpose are much larger in num-
Der. The necessity OF keeping such
troops WILL however, cease at the same
time with the evacuation of Lao Tung
peninsula, and so much of the troops
will then be drawn from Corea. The
japanese government hopes that the
Corean government, having already en-
tered upon the work of reform, may
succeed and be able to maintain order
and even protect foreigners, though
our troops are withdrawn. The Jap.
