who was standing alone az one end OF
the hall, he said:
well, Martin, Siler does not think
that he can make any change in his
ruling, and there the thing stands

after a pause.

ciare,' himself as he has done. there
wcult have been an argument in the
ring
There certinly would have BEEN" was
Julian's reply.
well, don't know what to do" said
the fight promoter. You and the Cor
bett people have agreed upon this man
for referee. and unless you are disposed
10 go ahead and turn him down at this
late stage OF the game. l think that you
should agree to whatever he says"
JULIAN GIVES IT UP.
There was another long pause and
.hel Julian sand:
well, let it go. I give in TO The thing
ard we will fight Corbett as Siler says.
but 1 do not think that it is right"
Good" said Stuart. his face clearing
as he s2T the last chance of the fight
being prevented by row, falling away.
81 don't know why it should be ex-
pectei." said Julian after the confer
ence, that Fitzsimmons should always
give away everything in all his fights.
1 don't consider Siler's rulings as ac-
cording to Marquis OF QueensDury rules
and l think that / told Brady that the
rules that were good enough to enable
Coroett 10 win the championship ought
to be good enough for him 10 defend II
under. We want nothing but what is
fair 10 both men, and although, rs
said in the meeting, he is not good at
the style OF fighting. and We know that
Ccroett is good at ii. We are willing TO
give Ccrbett all of that chance and then
We will have him licked just the same.
Fitzsimmons may not be as good as
Corbett at just that particular thing.
but guess he Is enough better in other
ways TO moro than offset the advantage
Corbett will have in this respect. Fite-
simmons will win, sure enough, no mat
ter what the style of fighting is
BOB DOESN'T CARE A HANG.
TIL red-haired fighter himself did not
appear TO be over-pleased with the re-
suit of the conference. but he did not
lose any Of the confidence that has char
acterized him ever since he began train
ing for the fight.
81 have always fought under the rules
as meaning that the men shall not hit
with one arm free and with ali of the
brcak-awayS Clean" said FftZsimmons,
land this is rather new thing for me.
Corbett has won all OF his fights under
the rules as / want them, and 1 do nc.
see why he should make a holler for
something different this time. How
ever, / have always given in on every
thing to everybody. and / am willing 20
give in on this. I want the fight 10 be
on the square, and 1 know that I will
win it. I will be the winner of that
fight on the 18th of March just as sure
rs 1 am alive today. Corbett cannot
lick me, and he will never see the day
he can, no matter whether he fights I'M
der Marquis of Queensbury rules, or any
other rules
JIM SMELLS A MICE.
Corbett was inclined 70 view the sur
render Of Julian with scorn.
That is what they have been pray
ing for all along" said Corbett- 1T is
in every way to the advantage OF Fitz-
simmons to hit with one arm free. It
is conceded on all sides that he is A

better on the jab than 1 am. Now, on
the other haid. I am better than Fitz-
simmons oil long range fighting. and
am more scientific. / consider it very
much more TO his advantage that Siler |
has ruled as he has. / was willing to-
day. and I have always been willing. |
20 agree to the referees rulings. / do |
not consider that FitzsimmOns is Civ |
ing up anything at all when he agrees |
to fight as Siler says. I'll bet that he |
is laughing IN his sleeve right now al |
the credit ne win get with people who !
90 not know him. for agreeing to some
thing that ne wants more than anything |
else.
Il am glad Of one thing" continued l
Tor5ett. This removes the last oosta-
Gle 70 our fighting. unless Fitzsimmons
loses his nerve. The fight is now Ger
tainty, and when I get that fellow in
the ring 1 am going TO make him re-
pent all the hard things he has been
saying about me for all these years"
The gloves for the contest viii be
brought n Stuart's office tomorrow by
both Brady and Julian, and after being
by the referee will be locked
n the safe in Stuart's Office until the
lay OF the fight. These arrangements
we're agreed on at the conference thls
afternoon BY Brady and Julian. the lat
