SPORTING MEN EXERCISED.
Anxious to Know If Mccoy and Cor
bett VIII Fight.

New York, Oct 5.-'Today is the day."
IS an expression that can be heard in
any of the sporting resorts this morning
and of course it refers TO the Corbett-
Mccoy match.
W. B. Gray and the managers of the
Hawthorne Club, have said right along
that on Wednesday. October 5. the time
stipulated in the articles of agreement,
they would make known the battle-ground
where the contest would be held. Gray
has been out of town considerably of late
and is due TO return to New York today
He has evidently been away on club
business, and judging from his confident
air before he left he must know things"
Gray said positively he would not re-
veal the great secret until the 5th in
stant. While he said that he knew the
location and would not tell where the
contest was to take place he has been
very free in peddiing out information
as to where it would not take place.
He has gone up and down the list so
many times that the people here are
more in the dark than ever. One thing
the promoters of the fight will likely
have impressed upon their minds is, that
this affair has gone so far and has been
given so much publicity that the sport
ing public won't stand for "bloomer.'
They want the men to fight, and ii it
falls through the persons whose fault it
is, be they fighters, hackers, or what
not, will fare badly in the estimation of
the sporting public. They will be put
down as fakirs, pure and simple.

PENRosE MAKES CHARGES.
Pennsylvania Senator Severely Ar
raians Manamaker.

Huntington, Pa, Oct. 5.-Sensational
charges in reference TO the senatorial cleo
ton of two years ago were made in
speech delivered her last evening by Unit
ed States Senator Boies Penrose. He de-
clared that the agents of eX-Postmaster
General John Wanamaker attempted TO
purchase from the leaders of the Repub-
lican organization Mr.. Wanamaker's cleo
tion as senator for an immense sum of
money.
Making a specific charge Senator Pen
rose declared that Mr.. Wanamaker's pO-
litical representative later made an offer
of $3.50. 0o0 to Senator Quay, through the
latters son Richard, for Quay's support
in electing Mr.. Wanamaker to succeed
Don Cameron in the United States Senate.
Going further, Senator Penrose charged
Mr.. Wanamaker and his representatives
with deliberate and unbIushing debauch-
cry of the Legislature" The senator as
serted that Mr.. Wanamaker failed in his
ambition to become mayor of Philadel-
phia through vaccillation and treachery;
failed to purchase the senatorship, and
after falling to secure the Republican CUB
ernatorial nomination attempted to defeat
the party's candidates by a deal with the
Democrats"
Mr.. Penrose stated that he had other
charges and facts to bring against Mr..
Wanamaker a the proper time.

New York, Oct. 5.-The early dealings
in the stock market showed irregularities
as compared with yesterdays closing
prices. In the main the tone OF the mar
ket was firm, but Sugar Refining declined
rapidly at the opening and this caused
uneasiness to develop in the general mar
ket
A further REDUCTION in the price of re-
fined sugars was announced today, and
this was taken to indicate more aggres-
sive measures IN the sugar war, il was
followed by sales of the stock. Sugar Re
filming was the active feature at the open
ing. and after its opening decline the
stock fiuctuated widely.
The prices for American stocks in the
London market were shown in the early
cabIed advices fractionally higher than
the local closing figures.
After the first half hour the whole mar
ket developed a stronger tone with Amer
ican Tobacco and the Grangers in the
lead.
Government bonds were unchanged
