WAITING FOR FITZ'S ANSWER.
Corbett Hopes He Will Accept the
San Francisco Offer.

New York, Dec. 11.-JameS J. Corbett.
who is in this city, was asked tIday
If he had seen Dan Stuart. who, a short
time ago, offered a 81 200 purse for
finish fight between the ex-champion and
F1tZSimmonS.
- have not heard anything from Dan
Stuart as yet" said he, but ! suppose
he will see me before twenty-fOur hours
have passed.
What do you think OF Stuart's 1ffer of
a 81 5000 purse for fight between Fitz-
simmons and you?''
We'll, you see" replied COrbett 1--WE
have received an offer of 81 5000 purse
10 box fifteen roundsin San Franciscoeither
i II month or tw and have accepted it.
1 don't see why FitZSimmOns doesn't.
I'VE are sure of the money out there and
besides We can fight inside of funr 20 six
weeks. If we accept Stuart's offer, then
we will have to 20 down South and might
possibly be chased all around the country
for several weeks and not fight after all.
"If FitZSimmons Will only accept that
offer OF 81 5000 in San ranciSco, i will
| agree TO stop him in fifteen rounds, and if
1 should fail | will turn over the entire
purse to him."
"But suppose he won't fight you linn
| tied number of rounds?"
"Then | will have TO fight him 10 a
| finlsh,'' replied Corbett, but l think
| that the San Francisco offer is an ex-
| ceIlent one, and If FitZsimmons viii only
accept 1 will pack up my trunk inme-
| diately and start West | shall consider
| Stuarts offer and give him decided an

WHAT AN AUCTION DID.
New York Auction Brings Some Fine
C1Othinp to Washington.

Reports are prevalent that the ready
made clothing trade throughout the country
has been had-very bad. The lateness
of the season and the general hard times
explain It, There was one big New 1ork
manufacturer who wanted to retire from
business. He turned his entire stock over
to Ullman & Co. of New York. to sell
at auction. Ei1ders were few. Most any
pr1ce offered would be accepted, and ii.
Fredlander & Bro, corner of Ninth and
E streets, of this city, secured the entire
stock at ridiculous prices. All the week
past this immense stock has been parceled
out to eager buyers at prices which make
hard times seem like most prosperous days.
There's no time to lose il you wish TO
take advantage of Washington's most re-
markable clothing selling. $3.50 for a
suit or So for an overcoat, are samples
of what this sale means. Children's S
REFERS at 81 90 are uncommon, but that
is another result Of this lucky purchase.
No matter how you look at it, whether
for the money saved or the clothing Sc
cured, you realize as soon as you leave the
store that you are perfectly satisfied

SIX DAY RECORD BROKEN
