FITzSIMMONS SORE
MAHER PERSISTS THAT HE WILL
FIGHT MONDAY.

FL Paso. Tex. Feb. 14.-(speciol)-
quiet prevails The crowd is rubber
ntcking around seeing If they can dig
up anything. There Is a great deal of
sensational news about the action of
the rangers. but the greatest part Of 1t
Is rumors unbiased on fact Fitzsim-
mons went to the opera and ranger
friend accompanied him. This gave
rise to the story that Fitzsimmons was
under arrest and remained under sur
Neillance until he recrossed tn. main
border. The ranger said today that he
guessed he would have to quit & ing
TO the opera with prize fighters Some
people want the rangers removed from
here. but they do not know why they
should be sent away as they have not
injured any one so far
Fltzsimmons Is down In the mouth
on account Of the light being post
poned. He says Maher did not take
good care OF himself and Is to blame
for being sick. He will wait until
Monday, but he has not decided what
course to pursue thereafter.
Maher returned to Las Cruces this
morning and every effort will be made
TO get him In condition to go into the
ring next Monday morning. The post
ponement has In no way injured the
prospect for the fight. and II II is put
off another week the chances are just
as good as they are now. The doctor
who attended Maher says that his eyes
may be sore for a week and they may
get well in two days. There are about
twenty-five similar cases in town now.
Many visitors who came to see the
fight are leaving In disgust.

HIS GRAVE OPENED
MEDIUMS SAY CoNNoR WAS nor
BURIED IN III.


Mexico City, Feb, IA grave in the
American cemetery of this city wns
opened today in the interest OF physi-
cal research, as leading mediums OF
New York and Boston had declared
positively that the body In that par
ticular grave was not that of young
man named Connor from Burlington,
VT, who came here year ago and pre-
sumably died OF typhoid fever. Me-
diums even most celebrated were posi-
tive IL was not Conner who died, but
some one else, and then lntimated that
he had escaped to Texas.
The society for physical research be-
came Interested and an agent came
here TO investigate. and the result In
that probably the body eNhumed Is
that OF Conner. but gentleman pres
ent at the examination who knew
Common Intimately says he would not
swear SO In a court OF Justice. The
hair was darker. but the teeth and
nllings were those Of Connor. Further
Investigations win be made In the
United states IN line OF comparison Of
details OF teeth with the chart OF NIL
ings In the office OF a New York dem
list. The government gave every aid.

MAnEn IMPROVING.
VIII he Ready for the Ring by Next
Monday.

Ell Paso. Tex, Feb. 1i.-Lnte this
evening Quinn, the hacker Of Maher.
telegraphed from Las Cruces that
Peters eyes were % per cent better
and that he would surely be in the
ring Monday. In the meantime con-
cesslons have been secured for a big
bull fight In Juarez Sunday. Instead
of being In the whirl Of excitement over
the great prize fight Ell Paso was
quleter than at any time during the
last two days. stunrt's headquarters
was about the deadest place I'm town,
and was practically deserted during
the greater part of the day. There was
a sorely disappointed crowd OF sports
hanging around the street corners and
several of them not fortified for the
financial strain OF long stay In I'll
Paso were forced to take the back
track for home.
These, however. were few In number
and the majority are hanging on with
implicit faith In Stuart's ability to pun
on the fight as he has agreed to do.
There is no question the fight VIII take
place but whether It will he on Mon
day or not Is an open question. II
Mnhere eyes do not recover with SUI
flcient rapidity to enable him to Get
into the ring on next Monday Flt2sim-
mons may decline to wait any longer.
Fltzslmmons is sorely disappointed
man over tue turn lilHEh HhNN AiNtH
and is little inclined to find fault
with Maher for not taking sufficient
precautions during his training. He Is
confident OF his ability to heat Maher
In two rounds or four at the outside,
and the obstacles that have been placed
In his way have tended to discourage
him somewhat.
He rode over to FL Paso this after
noon and although Maher went to Las
Cruces this morning. the Texas rangers
at once struck Fitzsimmons trail to
prevent him from engaging In n INST
frht with n man forty odd miles away.
The constant DIGGING of his every
movement by the rangers has added
another feature to the disgust which
FitzsImmons entertalns at the general
situation. There II no doubt that he liz
very anxious to fight, provided he docs
not run up against n jail and partleu-
larly n Mexican Jail.
pr. White, who has been attending
Naher said after his patient had de-
narted for Las Cruces. That he had
grave fears as to Makers ability to be
in the ring on Monday.
HE may be able to do IT,, SAID the
doctor "but II is doubtful. II Is likely
10 be a week, or he may not come
around by that time. His eyes are IN
very bad shape. and there Is no telling
With eny certainty when he VIII be
able to see clearly"

NO CONCESSION GRANTED.


Washington, Feb. li-scnor Rom
Gro, the Mexican minister here. gives
no credence TO the story that Dan STU
art has obtained concession OF land
from the Mexican governement upon
which the fight could be pulled or
without danger OF Interference from
either the United States or the Next
can authorities. In the first place, Sc
nor Romero explained, under the
Mexican constitution state authorities
are Inhibited from dlsposing by conces-
sic II or otherwise TO IA foreigner any
land within twenty miles OF the bor-
der without express permission OF the
president, ana II was hls firm convlc-
tlun that no such approval had been
given. And In any event, he said. that
the person occupying the land would
be as amenable to the laws OF the gem
eral government as the people OF any
other section Of the country and would
be held to a strict accountability for
their violation.
Senior Romero Is strongly of the opln-
ion that no fight will take place on
Mexican soil. The Federal authorities
here are Inclined to the belief that an
attempt Is being made to throw OIL
cials off their guard, and kilograms
have been sent to keep a strict watch
on the movements OF the fighters, and
their friends
