HOPE FOR A FIGHT YET.
Florida Athletic Club Makes New
Offer to Pugu.

Florida Athletic Club Makes q New
Offer to Pugs.
Hot SPRINGS, Ark, Oct. !2S.-While
the big fight has been formally declared
off there is still deal of hope in the
natives breasts that Corbett and Fitz-
simmons will come together here in the
foothills Of the Ozark mountains. The
situation is, Of course, complicated.
So far az it's relations with the Florida
Athletic club is concerned, the heavy
weight battle under the original Cole
man House agreement, which was sub
sequently amended at Dallas, is thing
Of the past. In it's stead has cropped up
a proposition to sign new articles to
fight for purse not exceeding $4,000
and have the battle here three weeks
later than the date originally agreed to.
Corbett, it is known, favors this plan.
One thing is settled, unless the men
fight in private Oct. 81 the fight will lie
postponed and subsequent meeting
may be arranged for the new offer OF
the club Of $25, 900.

BRITISH PRESS COMMENT.
Arbitration Not Applicable In Venezuo-
.. Ian Matters. r.'.-

Arbitration Not Applicable in venezue-
,. Ian Matters.
J. LONDON. Oct. 23.-The afternoon
newspapers Of this city again comment
upon the dispute between Great Britain
and Venezuela.
The St. James Gazette, for example,
declares itself to be opposed to arCltra-
ton in any form, saying:
Arbitration not only does not Apply
to the present dispute; but it is the
usual thing when there is recourse to
This kind Of international tribunal, for
the arbitrators to find against England,
and the weight of evidence; and in the
few cases where the finding has been in
our favor the other side declines to
pay"
The St. James Gazette then instances
the Alabama, Delagoa Bay and Behrlng
sea disputes in support Of it's contention
that international tribunals usually lind
against England and the weight OF
evidence.
More attention is attracted now than
formerly to the utterances OF The st.
James Gazette against arbitrating the
dispute, as this newspaper seems to have
had somewhat Of the inside track
throughout in Venezuelan news here,
and it is therefore believed to have been
inspired by high government Official
thoroughly familiar with the subject
and aware Of the policy to be followed
by the Marquis of Salisbury.

Champion Corbett Declares

Threatened to Leave for =.
" Louis and Then Change
His Mind.
Sports Still Hopeful That q
New Agreement Will
Be Made.

CHICAGO, Oct. 23.-The Tribune's Hot
Springs special says:
II have fought my last battle. /
hereby announce that have retired
from the ring, and will give the cham
pionship belt to the winner OF the
Maher- 'Donnen fight"
This unexpected announcement was
made during the evening in the rotunda
of the Arlington hotel by James J. Cor
bett short time after indulging IN
st 7rmy interview with Martin Julian,
whom he had come up from his training
quarters to see and endsavor to per-
suade to agree to postponing the meet
ing with Fitzsimmons until Nov. IL.
The champion had just partaken OF
hearty dinner, and. had cigar in his
hand, and, turning to friend at bis
elbow, remarked:
II have quit training, and here goes
for my first smoke"
90 saying, he lighted his cigar and
leisurely pulled at it.
Satisfied That Fitz Won't Fight.
II will leave here in the morning
with my party for St. Louis. have
lost four months in training and allow
ing myself to be dragged from one
point to another. am satisfied now
that this man Fitzsimmons does not
want to fight and will not: be here to
meet me. If he is anxious to fight why
doesn't he come ON right now, before
there is a. law passed in the state
to prevent us from meeting? He won't
fight and I don't intend to lose any
more time fooling with him."
Julian had only to say that on the
morning of the 31st Fitzsimmons' name
would be found OIL the register Of the
Arlington hotel, that he would be ready
to meet Corbett then, and no sooner or
ia er, and that if Corbett was not here
he would claim the forfeit and the
championship of the world.
An hour later Corbett changed his
mind about leaving for St. Louis in the
morning and gave it out that he would
remain here until after the 31st, come
what would.
