Springs all day announced that his
man must be kept quiet and away from
all excitement. The champions father
arrived on the early train from the
coast, and received a warm welcome
when he reached the camp. Harry and
Joe COrbett, with their father, spent
the greater part of the day with their
pugilistic relative, all of them being
confident that victory awaits Jim to-
morrow. During the forenoon, and aft
ernoOn COrbett took several short
walks but was permitted very little Of
any other sort of exercise.
Among the sub-trainers and other
attaches Of the camp, there was an APP

the near approach of the event Of the

training quarters were more self-con-

prevailed. I'VE can't lose" was the
unanimous sentiment which found fire.

From O'Clock in the morning until
late at night the camp was besieged by
visitors. Ali sorts of vehicles, from
the stage coach to bicycles. crowded

murky little baroom did a business
which left the traditional oldest in

Gov Sadler was delighted with his
visitors enthusiasm and took him to
dinner at the executive mansion. Dur
ing the evening Mr.. Ingalls, met Par
SON. Davies, MuIdOon, Tom Sharkey,
Prof Donaldson and many other men
prominent in pugilistic circles, and ap-
peared to enjoy himself immensely.
This afternoon a special from San
Francisco, pulled in, composed of nine
Pullman sleepers, the first to reach
here. When the train left San Fran
cisco it had ten coaches, but one was
left at Reno to attach to the local train
Most of the passengers were sporting
men from San Francisco, but there was
also delegations from Los Angeles and
Marysville, each Of the latter cities hav-
ing it's own car. The Olympic Athletic
club, of San Francisco, was represent
ed by a large number Of members.
One of the passengers who attracted
a great deal of attention was COrbetts
father, who came to see his son battle
for gold and glory. Mr. COrbett, Sr.,
travelled in state, occupying the draw
ing room of a Pullman car. His words
were listened to with great respect
by his fellow passengers. He expressed
the utmost confidence in his sons
ability to defeat FitZsimmons, and said
that Jim had assured him that there
was no possibility of his losing. On ar
irving in Carson, Mr. COrbett drove
Immediately to his sons quarters and
spent the remainder of the day with

Dan Stuart said he was confident that

The Center of Interest Transferred From Crete TO the
Macedonian Frontier. Where the First Col
liSiOn Is to Be Looked For.
Salisbury Explains in the English House of Lords That the
Adnirals Have Been Instructed to Blockade
Cretan POrtS-GreekS Will Take
Active Measures

ATHENS, March Lett is the general
belief here that nothing now can pre-
vent war, and the government has it's
plan of campaign fully prepared The
cabinet had a long session today as to
the attitude to be taken in face Of the
coercive programme of Europe, and it
is reported that decision was reached
to take active measures, as being the
only solution possible for Greece.
The center of interest is now trans
ferred from Crete to the Macedonian
frontier. 1t is evident from the haste
which the government has displayed in
getting all It's available troops off by
sea before the commencement of the
blockade that there is a strong convic-
ton that they will be needed at once.
With the sea route closed, the trans
portation of troops must be overland,
and this would be an exceedingly slow
and difficult process, owing to the lack
of horses and the very incomplete rail-
way system in the northern portions of
Greece. Many of the war correspond
ents have already arrived at Volo, La
rissa and other frontier points
The Greek officers on the frontier
find the utmost difficulty in restraining
their men, and the departure of Crown
Prince Constantine for the frontier has
been deferred on the advice Of the gen
erals in command, who fear that his
presence would have a dangerously ex-
citing influence upon the troops.
1t is reported that the Turkish forces
on the Macedonian frontier are raising
a double line Of Notifications and be-
ing constantly reinforced from Salon
lea.
Since the publication in the semi
official press of the exposition of Count
Muravieffs Cretan policy which ap-
peared at the moment when it was
most calculated to influence the French
government, the feeling of the public
press of Greece has been one of the
fiercest resentment toward Russia.
The Greek royal family is also seriously
disappointed by the attitude of Russia
and France is believed to have sacri-
feed her Cretan sympathies upon the
altar of the Franco Russian entente.
The Greek army in Thessaly will be
formed in two divisions and the COM
mand given to Crown Prince COnstan-
tine. The Greek forces in Epirus are
now greatly superior to the Turks.
though the latter are being reinforced
with all haste.
