Trustees Stewart and Thomas are high

morning, and this afternoon the above Of
flee was the scene of war of words. The
article purported to be a report of a meet
ing of the city trustees in which Trus-

Stewart seconded 1t that the trustees put
in their bills at once as members of the
board of equalization at IS per day for ten
days, and have it paid Immediately out of
the funds paid in by Ex-Treasurer Bloros'
bondsmen. The article further stated that
the warrants were ordered drawn, but that
only the two movers drew their warrants.
The balance of the board desiring to wait
until more money came in. Both trustees
pronounce the article as false In every par
ticular. and say that Kendall Holt the
city editor of the Sum- was not present at
the meeting, and that no such motion was
made or thought of at the meeting Trus-
tee Stewart said THE Sun must retract
that article or there will be serious trouble
for some one." Stewart and Thomas are
both highly respected citizens of San Ber-
nardino, and are far from being greedy,
grasping men. Quite few censured them
for being in such hurry for their money
when the other three members could wait
until the tax money came in.

San Francisco, May 1t.-Informatlon
has reached here which points to the
probability of a match between Cor
bett and ChoynslIi. The reason for
"Parson" Davies mysterious visit to
the East is thus made apparent. He
went to arrange a match between Cor
bett and Choynsk, to be fought in this
city in the fall. The "Parson" took
the trip in the interest of the National
Sporting club. and the officers of that
organization have received information
that leads them toy confidently predict
that the match will be made.
Davies has urged Fitzsimmons to
bring about this result, knowing that
If Fitzsmmons announced to Corbett
that he would fight him after the ex-
champion had beaten Choynski, Jim
probably would go in for the battle.
Fitzsimmons, it is believed, is lending
himself to the project. Choynski is
perfectly willing to fight Corbett for
any amount. The only trouble in
bringing about the match has been
with the latter. If the bout comes off
it will be a twenty-round go for a
purse of $4,000. All the National peo-
pie are jubilant over the outlook.
