a decline soon set in which carried prices
to the low point of the day. A good cash
demand was reported which helped to
steady prices and the action of eastern
banks in protecting the gold reserve had a
favorable effect, but the extreme narrow
ness of trade prevented material price
changes. Corn was quiet and within a mar
row range. Good crop reports and heavy
receipts had weakening tendedcy but
fair demand sent prices steady. Oats were
helped by bad crop reports and a firm
feeling existing all day, some covering

nzed by the regular medical fraternity Of
this city. 1t Is stated by a prominent physi-
clan that the injuries exhibited by Sharkey
could have been caused by blow on the
navel.
Martin Julian, Fitzsimmons' manager, has
made a statement in which he says:
About 6:30 o'clock last night l was told
by three prominent men that Wyatt carp.
the man selected to referee, was crooked, and
with him in the ring Fitzsimmons would
stand no show. These men were Riley Gran
nan, the race track plunger Moses Gunst,
San Francisco police commissioner, and Tom
James. formerly purser of an Australian
steamer, and the men who brought Fftzsim-
mons to America. They said the change IN
the betting showed that something was wrong.
As as it became known that carp was
to be the referee Sharkey money appeared
in unlimited quantities. When the big tight
was called / made the announcement from
the ring charging that the referee had been
fixed. The big crowd was impatient of de-
lay and Missed and hooted me- l saw that
1T would not do to take Bob from the ring
If had, the crowd would have mobbed US.
Late this afternoon Bob Fitzsimmons,
through his attorney, commenced suit in the
superior court to restrain the Anglo Califor
MIA bank from paying Sharkey the $4,000
purse awarded the sailor by Referee carp.
Fitzsimmons charges conspiracy between
others, whose names are not given, to award
Sharkey the purse under any circumstances.
Fftzsimmons alleges that before carp was

and that had he known of it he would have
refused to enter the ring. He therefore prays
that as he discounted" Sharkey so that the
latter was unable to proceed. and on account
Of the alleged conspiracy, that the Anglo
California bank, Thomas Sharkey, Daniel
Lynch John Doe and Richard Roe be en-
Joined from collecting the money on the
certificate Of deposite, and that the court
award said certificate to Fftzsimmons. Judge
Sanderson granted the injunction prayed for,
and the case will soon be tried in court.

who sought expert advice in what
seemed like an extremity and a crit

uation of the river at Eau Claire and
at Chippewa Falls is practically the
same, and the stage of water at Eau
Claire is really the stage of the river,
as the flood here is simply caused by
the back water. Most of the water is
able to get away under the ice, and
the back water represents the amount
of water that is unable to- get away.
AS the stage of the river goes down
more Of this water will flow away I'M
der the ice, and the flood here will be
soon over. The gorge extends about
eighteen miles, and is made I'D largely
of anchor ice, which is a sort of slush
packed closely, but not so hard as or
binary ice. Under this the river is
running in somewhat cramped quar-
tiers, and as the water falls more the
ice will drop down into the river bed,
where it is likely to stay until spring.

DIRECT FROM ROME
DENIAL BY THE PAPAL SECREs
TARY OF THE RECENT
RUMORS

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3.-For SONS
time there have been periodically pubs
lished dispatches pretending to come
from Rome, and from other points, In.
d1cating proposed action on the part
OF the holy see in regard to archbishops
and especially touching the faculty OF
the Catholic university at Washington,
All sorts of reprimands, removals and
even degredations were promised. and
the names of the recipients of such IA
vors were given. These reports have
naturally annoyed those who hold the
highest places in the Catholic hierarchy
in America, and could not fail to create
d1spleasure in the mind even of the
pope himself. Their effect on the pope
is manifested in the following cable
gram received from the papal secretary
OF state by the apostolic delegate,
which needs no explanation and no
comment:
Rome, Dec. 3.-Monsgnor MartinelH, Dele
gaze Apostolic, Washington: The holy
rather has learned with great sorrow Of the
agitation created in the United States by pre-
tended correspondence and kilograms from
Rome announcing measures soon to be taken
against eminent American prelates and dis
tinguished professors of the Catholic uni
versity.
Your excellency will authoritatively deny
all such falsehoods,, which are the product
OF reprehensibIe maneuverings.

Case, G. w. Robertson, E. Keith, J. M.
Ballard, w. Teall, F. w. Woodward.
W. w Lilley and others. Malicious
rumorS have been freely circulated by
irresponsible persons both in this city
and Chippewa Falls.
Correspondents for some Of the out
Slde papers have sent out the ruKnors
as facts Perhaps the most malicious
was to the effect that Eau Claire
authorities would enjoin further at
tempts to blast out the ice gorge.
Mayor Days action of today is suf-
ficient denial of the rumor. Then the
time worn hoax regarding the dan
gerous condition" of the Little Falls
dam and its liability to go out was
sprung. This has been a standing
joke since the flood of 1884 with resi-
dents in this city and Chippewa Falls.
Every time heavy rain storm occurs
it is sprung. Rivermen and lumbermen
pronounce 1t one of the most substan-
t1al dams in the state, if not in the en-
tire country. 1t is in a very safe con-
dition at present and has at no time
since the high water occurred been in
danger. The people of Eau Claire have
had all their fears allayed and appre-
bend no further danger from the ice
gorge, at this point at least. River
experts and loggers have made a
thorough investigation of the situa,
ton. They have examined carefully
the entire length of the gorge,
the quality of ice and material
of which it is composed. They say
that while there is an immense GUAM
tity it is in the main slush ice and that
the water will work it's way through
as it would through sponge. They
prophesy that before warm weather
sets in the gorge will be practically
worn away. Today is the mildest one

Little credit is given to the PROPOSE

Germ here ON account of the high
water and gorge is the water works
company. Their reservoir at the
Wheaton springs remains under about
nine or ten feet of water. Their water
power and that of the street car, light
and power company, Dells Pulp and
Paper company. all situated at the

ing a regular old fashioned winter, so
there is every reason to expect the con-
tinuance Of the ice till spring, but there
seems no reason to apprehend any
danger. The course of the river may
be changed slightly, but as far as that
goes it is constantly changing any way.
1t is a very peculiar circumstance that
there should be such a frost in con-
junction with a food, but there would

The people of the Chippewa river val
ley will undoubtedly feel much relieved
over such an opinion from so we'll
known an authority and they certain
ly need to be relieved, for a sort Of
decentralization has sieZed on many
business men in Chippewa Falls, which
does not seem warranted by the act
ual facts of the case. Travelling men
have tried to talk business with many
merchants who are nowhere near,
and in no way affected by the flooded
district, but have been unable to do
any business, being told that the flood
would ruin everything, and all kinds
of business for the present. This was
the experience in several cases today,
and seems certainly an unnecessary
alarm for, aside from loss of business
of those in the flooded district and
property loss in the same location, the
loss in the city will not be great. The
Il 90 nd
Boom company is in a serious position,
and any sudden break of the ice would
seriously endanger the wagon bridge
between Chippewa Falls and South
Chippewa Falls. Other loss here will
be from the flood. The town is in no
apparent danger. even though there
were a break in the gorge formed sew
eral miles above, being protected by
having the current running directly
away from the town. toward the bluffs
on the other side of the river. Look
ing up or down the river from the
wagon bridge an unbroken mass of
Jagged white ice can be seen, with
here and there a. dark clump Of logs
frozen in the gorge. At the lower
end of the gorge near Eau Claire is
banked mass of logs containing
twenty million feet of lumber, and this
large amount of lumber it is desired to
save by holding 1t right where it now
is. The ice and flood have not encroach-
ed on the banks of the river so much
as feared, and the damage is much less
in the country than was at first feared
The water has been just above 20
feet all the afternoon, but since the
river in general is falling, less fear
is felt in regard to slight changes in
the stage of water here. It has been
showing tonight, the ground being
covered, but the cold weather contin-
ues with little change
