New York. April "A new phase has
developed in the preliminary arrange

between James J. COrbett and Robert

pionship of the world, purse OF $4,000

St James hotel yesterday, Fitzsimmons
posted with the stake holder the remain

Jacksonville. a check for S1,0O0 promised
him for training expenses.
After the transaction had been compile

he inquired OF Vendig as to what date had
been set for the fight.
No definite reply was given by the
Florida manager to this query. and he
was then asked what the club intended
to do with its 5000 forfeit If it failed to
bring the fight off.
Nendig replied that the club had never
agreed to forfeit 5000 If it failed to bring
the fight off.
hot dispute followed, in which IL was
developed that the. 5000 forfeit money
mentioned in the articles of agreement
had never been deposited by the club
with the final stake holder. Vendig. how
ever, made a proposition to the effect that

TO be divided between Corbett and Fitz-
simmons in the event of a failure to

This was emphatically refused by Fitz-
simmons, who said last night: ''Vendig

The effects of the freeze were everywhere
apparent. Deserted wharves. leafless or

that at least three years must elapse be-
fore a revival OF the stirring old times.
Doubtless there will be suicides Of de-
pressed invalids, while many who have
now no incomes to tide over the present
emergency, VIII move out of the state or
seek business in some of our large and
growing cities. Tampa, Lakeland and
Ocala have already drawn many of this
class within their borders, while others
seem to think there is chance for them
to do better IN the Biscayne Bay region.
Happily. however. there are hundreds OF
