AT CARSON
Women VIII Be Permitted to See the Great
Fight

CARSON, Feb 24.-Women will be
admitted to the fight. Dan Stuart,
through his representative, made the
following statement last night: Il will
admit women to the fight simply because
some of the most prominent men in the
state have indicated a desire to bring
their wives. l am not making this move
for the money there is in il, but as mat
ter of accommodation to the people men
toned. If women desire to see the
fight l have nothing to say. They are
the best judges OF what they should and
should not see"
The cold spell has passed, and with the
disappearing snow goes the gloomy feel
ing that has surrounded both pugilists'
quarters since the night the blizzard
struck Carson. 1t was cold early this
morning, but when the sun got show
iccles fell from the caves of the houses
and snow rolled from roofs in miniature
avalanches The middle of the roads
soon became deep with slush, and the
bright-colored sleighs which have been
kept on the go by numerous newspaper
correspondents for week or more, VIII
hereafter be laid up, probably for the
balance of the winter.
Greater activity was noticeable about
the training quarters. The morning
train brought assistants to both prin-
cipals in the coming fight. At Corbett's,
Bill Delaney and John Jeffries were as
welcome as the mild weather, while
FitzslIAnons came in on foot to meet his
old assistant, Jack Stelzner. He was
followed by Roeber and Hickey in a
buggy. After a short time in Carson he
returned to quarters in the same way,
giving the horse attached to the buggy
and his big dog plenty to do to keep pace
with him.

Percy Edwards &ared today for Tahiti,
and on her goes the United States
brotherhood of the South Sea islands.
The brig goes to Tahiti, and from that

women who were pining for husbands.
All the men had been killed in war, and
the women were lonely. A company
was organized in this city to go to the
relief of the dusky damsels, and on
board the Edwards are 81 men who SIGH
ed for the tropical cline and the easy
life in the South seas. 1t since develop
ed that the Adamless Eden story was a
myth, but the company organized here
determined TO go to some place. Each
man contributed one hundred dollars
to a common fund. The old whaling
brig Edwards was bought and pro-
visioned, and tomorrow the expedition
starts. The men are provided with
agricultural implements, and several
trades are represented. They will look
for some uninhabited isle, and when
they have found it they propose to settle
down TO life of ease.

the postoffice bill, and Senator Allison
reported it to the senate. The COM
mittee recommended net increase of
$500 900 over the expenditures provided
for in the bill as 1t passed the house,
making a total of s935,33S. The principal
item of this increase is s1S2 600, to pay
railroad postal clerks. Seventy y-five
thousand dollars additional is provided
for mail transportation by electric or
cable cars. increasing this ap-
preparation to 100000, and $4,000

southern fast mail remains in the bill.
Senator Butler, from the postotfice
committee, today made a minority re-

Loud second class matter bill. The
substitute provides for the purchase of
railroad cars for the transportation OF
the mails, declaring it to be the policy
of the United States to carry the mail in
cars belonging to the government. and
to pay the company mileage rates for
hauling them. Senator Butler says in
his report that to make the changes
provided for in the Loud bill would be
to leap into the dark. and that the adop
ton of his substitute would correct all
the evils complained Of without taking
