signs of Dan Stuart to bring off the
fight on Mexican soil. Stuart, how
ever, remains confident, and declares
the fights will surely come off, There
is no doubt that he will keep his word,
so far as the big fight is copcerned,
and the chances are very strong that
he will keep it as regards most, If not
all, Of the lesser fights.
A telegram was received here today
from William A. Brady, announcing
that he would not be at the ringside,
but that Al Smith would challenge the

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb. 1.-THE gov
ernor and adjutant general today is
sued orders to the militia companies at
Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa, Yuma and Tue
son to hold themselves in readiness
for immediate service. This action was
caused by private advices that Stuart
intends to load his fighters and their
audience on the cars, at Ell PaSo, and
make quick run into Arizona, where
it is believed the fight can be pulled off
near San Simon station without mo-
1estation. This would be less than four
hours running from FL Paso, and tents
could be pitched and the big fight set
tied before the authorities could get to
the ground. Gov. Hughes is deter
mined that the fight shall not occur
on Arizona SOIL United States Attor-
ney Ellinwcod has been called into
consultation, and 1t is understood that
Gov. Hughes has telegraphed to the in
terror department, suggesting that
strong force of United States deputy
marshals be stationed at the Dor
der to block the fighters If they turn

"NEw IN THE BUSINESS"
Why Walter WfImOt Takes q Shot
at BuckenberCer.


ct notice that Buckenberger roasts
my scheme for filming the managers
instead Of the players" said Walter
Wi1mot yesterday. "He says that I
would not suggest such a thing ex-
cept that l am new in the business.
All l have to say is that I referred to
managers who manage ball players,
and not those who are managed by ball
players. Buckenberger is not a man
ager, or he wouldn't have to go clear
to Toronto to get a team to manage.
Perry Werden was weighed yester-
day and with his clothes on he tipped

have consumption" said Perry. II
supposed that I weighed 127. I had
Turkish bath this morning and / must
have lost half a dozen pounds there. I
played at 1874 pounds last season, and
I will get down to that or perhaps 100
before / start in the coming season. I
was never in better condition than last
season"
Werden received a letter from Long
John Healy yesterday The Egyptian
is wondering what the Minneapolis
management intends to do with him,
and he states that he has asked for
his release. He will probably go South
with the Browns in March.
President Killilea, of the Milwaukee club,
has received a letter from President Ban
Johnson stating that he had written to Char
ley Comiskey, of the st. Paul club, asking
that he waive claim to the meeting being
held in st. Paul in favor of Chicago, and that
the date be changed from Feb. "a to Feb. II.
This is necessary in order that the Western
league can meet before the National league
and appoint committee to attend the meet
ing in New York and labor in the interest of
the Western league. There is no doubt that
Comiskey will agree to the change and the
meeting will be held in Chicago.

congressman who had rated" on the
silver bill. Thus constituents had been
debauched. The best service that

the president and his cabinet officers
Of the entire power Of patronage
sentatives would hang around the

Mr.. Lodge said patronage and favor

VERY MUCH Ell PASO.
Tonight,s Billiard Game VIII Truly
Be for Blood.

Tonight's game between Harrison
and Thayer will determine the cham
pionship in the balk line billiard tour
ney at Foley's.
Last night Wilmot beat Harrison,
and it throws upon the boy wonder the
absolute necessity Of taking the game
tonight. Wilmot. although playing at
$50 to Harrisons 800, played an eX-
ceptionally rapid game and when he
finished Harrison was only Is points
ahead of him on the even count. This
is the third time that Harrison and
Thayer have bene tied for first place.
Harrison led at the start, and in Is
innings he had 106 to Walters So. John
Goodnow's side partner, however,
braced up, running SO, quickly followed
by 90 and &c. Harrison made two runs,
"a and %, but they were far apart. In
the thirty-first inning Wilmot made IA
more and on the thirty-third he fin
ished, giving him an average of be-
tween five and six. Harrison's double
figure runs were %, Is, IA, "a, Is, %, II,
10. 81; Wilmot's, 10, II. 80, 20, 20, IA.
In tonight's game Thayer will play
at $50, Harrison at 300.

MAKES A SERIOUS CUT.
The Republican Apportfonment of
South Dakota.

Special to the Globe.
PIERRE, S. D., Feb. 11-While the
change in apportionment of delegates
decided upon in the Republican central
committee at Huron last Wednesday
will work to reduce the membership of
the convention from over 800 to but
little over 600, and relieve the con-
vention Of it's unwieldy size, the change
is one which the larger counties will
not look upon with the best of grace
when they come to study it's effect.
In former appointments one delegate
was allowed for each fifty votes or ma
jor fraction thereof cast for governor
at the last preceding election The
present apportionment is on a basis
Of one delegate for each seventy-five
votes or major fraction. with the adj
ditional privilege Of one delegate at
large for each county, and one dele
gate to each unorganized county. This
provision will work to the end of MAX
ing a serious cut in the representation
of the counties with a heavy Repub-
ican vote, but the one delegate at large
will, in many cases, Nake up any loss
in representation which the counties
with light Republican vote will lose
on the increase required to secure
delegate.
