THE BORDER PUGILISTS.
what Dan stuart Has to Say--An Un
claimed strip of Land The Preach
ers and the Governor.

| According to. the Ell Paso papers Dar
Stuart has not in the least been touched
by the action of congress in prohibiting
prize fighting in the territories. The
Times says that to the newspaper men
he turned placid and confidential front
and smilingly assured them that his great
carnival of physical culture contests
would come off as scheduled, even should
England send her "fying squadron" He
did not know nor care who had been try
ing to take his carnival to New Mexico,
and said Mr.. Catron's bill would not in.
terfere with the carnival program.
1t seems that there is strip of "no-
mans land" about mile wide lying be.
tween Texas and New Mexico, a few
miles north of Eel Paso, on which the
fight may take place. The Ell Paso
Tribune says of this: "Of course, the
officers of New Mexico have no authority
south Of the territorial line, and those of
Texas can not 20 north of the state line,
and if anybody wants to fight between,
what's to hinder?"
THE aovERNoR's REPLY.
After having given out their garbled
extract from Gov. Thornton's letter,
which so grossly misrepresented the ex-
ecutive and served as an invitation for
the prize fighters to invade New Mexico,
the FL Paso Minister'S union seems to
have endeavored to remedy their ill-ad-
vised action by giving to the press the
governors letter in full. This is what
Gov. Thornton wrote them:
II have the honor to acknowledge the
receipt of your favor of the 2lst, in ref
erence to the report that Dan Stuart was
arranging to bring off the prize fights
in New Mexico. l have looked into this
matter very carefully, and, while have
some fears of the truth of what you say
and suggest, think the intention is to
come to New Mexico, only in the event
that they fail to make arrangements in
Juarez. l have already written the legal
uthorities in Dona Ana county and re-.
quested them to see that the law is fully
enforced, and to prevent any violation of
it. I must be candid, hewever, and say
that the powers Of the legal authorities
are very limited in this territory; there
is absolutely not word upon our stat
utes making it crime to be engaged in
prize fighting in this territory, and we
can only depend upon the law with re-
gard to breaches of the peace. A bill
was introduced at our last legislature to
prevent prize fighting, but unfortunately
we could not pass it. There is direct
act of congress preventing the use of
United States soldiers to aid the sheriff's
0fiiCers Thara 10 n n moray in thu tarri
torial treasury for the employment of the
militia. am candid with you, because
| know just how you feel on this subject
and desire You to realize how helpless
the territorial officers are should an at.
tempt be made to bring off the fight in
New Mexico. I will, however, do all l
can, you may rest assured, to prevent
this disgrace being brought upon our ter
ritory. Yours very respectfully,
"W. L. THORNTON"

THE ILLINOIS DEMOCRACY.
Much Ado Over MOrrisOn's Financial
Views-Statements by Cable
and lIinrichsen.

Chicago, Feb. 6.--The managers of the
Democratic state machine appeared to be
considerably disturbed over the report
that Col. W. R. Morrison would not ask
the support of the Illinois delegation aa
a candidate for president unless the lead
ers of the party in this state abandoned
their position on the silver question.
Chairman Hinrichsen of the state COM
mittee said there was no truth in the
story.
II suppose if true,' Mr.. Hinriohsen
said, "that Col. Morrison will be in Chi
cago about the middle of this month. He
will not, however, undertake to dictate
the position which the Democratic party
in Illinois shall assume on the financial
issue. l Nave perfect understanding
with Col. Morrison. I know that he
would be glad to have the support of
Illinois Dem ocrats for the presidency.
He has his views on the money question,
just as have mine.
"Neither of us can assume to say what
the party will do. That is matter to be
settled at the state convention. I have
no doubt that the convention will de-
clare
IN FAVOR OF FREE COINAGE
of silver at 16 to l.. am confident the
delegation to the national convention
will be instructed to vote for Col. Nor
rison for president.
II don't think he will decline the sup
port of the delegates because they stand
report as ridiculous that he is coming out
here to submit an ultimatum on the
money issue to Governor Altgeld and
me-"
Benjamin I. Gable, national commit
tteeman from Illinois, said to-day that
the report concerning Col. Morrison's at.
titude toward the silver leaders was
true.
"Col. Morrison is an advocate of sound
money" Mr.. Gable said, "and he will not
be candidate for president on plat
form which declares in favor of free sill
YER. If the silver leaders in this state
are sincere in the support of Col. Nor
rison for the presidency, they should per.
nit him
10 FRAME THE PLATFORM
upon which he proposes to stand. It
would be absurd for the state convention
to adopt declaration in favor of free
silver and then instruct the delegation to
the national convention to vote for Col.
Morrison for president.
'Such action would prove a handicap
which would prevent him from receiving
the support of delegates from the sound
money states. l know that it is Col.
Morrison's purpose to confer with Mr..
Hinrichssn and Governor Altgeld when
he comes to Illinois. He will ask them to
stop the agitation for free silver if they
honestly desire to see him nominated for
the presidency. If they decline, he in
tends to take an active part in the fight
which is to be made in this state for
sound money. Those who know Col.
Morrison could not reasonably expect him
to do otherwise than have stated. He
is man of convictions and he would not
surrender principle in order to be
president"

THE SICK MANS DOMAIN.
Sultan in the Role of a serene ana
Artistic Liar-ImprObabie story
Regarding DardaneiIes.

Coustantinople, Feb. 1.-The sultan
has replied TO the autograph letter OF
Queen Victoria, which it has been under.
stood was personal appeal to the better
nature of the sultan against the condi-
tions in Asia Minor, sympathizing with
her in the humane sentiments expressed
and declaring that the reports of the
massaores were spread by evil disposed
persons. The snltan adds that, contrary
to allegations, the Turks were first at
tackled while praying in q mosque.
THE sULTAN's SERENE ASSURANCES.
The sultan assured the queen that the
measures taken haye succeeded in re-
storing order, that, except at Zeitoum,
quiet prevails everywhere, and that the
negotiations going on with the insurgents
at Zeitoum will undoubtedly lead the in
hhbitants to quiet.
UNCLE SAM MUST ASK TIE POWERS.
Regarding the request of Minister Ter
rell that the United States legation be
allowed a dispatch boat for it's service
the Turkish cabinet contends that, as the
passage of the straits of Dardanelles was
regulated by an agreement between the
six powers, the United States must apply
to them for the necessary permission, as
she is not party to the treaty OF Paris
On behalf of the United States it is un-
derstood that the contention is made that
the regulations do not apply to the Unit
ed States and she considers the straits of
Dardanelles open waters.
It is stated that the reason for the
porte's hesitation to grant the request of
Minister Terrell is the opposition of Rus
ala.
