Nothing But wrestling.

There was nothing but wrestling talk
about the city yesterday and the match
Saturday night was discussed more or
less all day. On every street corner
i.roups OF Cornishmen could be heard dis
cussing the match and in the evening it
formed the subject OF discussion every
where.
Both Rowett and King were kept busy
all day long by their friends telling them
all the fine points about the match and
how it all happened. Rowett's hand
and arm were rather tired last evening
from the hand shaking he had done.
When asked il he would be willing to
meet King again hestated that he would
be glad at any time provided the purse
would be satisfactory, He says that he
feels confident that he can throw King
any time. He stated further that he
would challenge the winner OF the match
at Marquette between King and Burns
to three style contest. Row-tt's fay
Orlte style is Cornish and he does not
profess to be wonder at anything else,
but he wilLchallenge the winner OF the
Marquette contest to match in three
styles, Cornish, collar and elbow and side
hold, and il they will not accept this he
will challenge them to FIVE style match
similar to the one which takes place at
Marquette. This will include one fall in
the Greaco-R Roman style and one in the
catch-as-catch-can style. 1t the winner
will accept the challenge he would pre-
fer to wrestle in this city rather than the
iron country.
King will do sor1e hard work before he
goes into the match with Farmer Burns.
His friends now state that he was not in
the best condition Saturday night and
that he did not not train down. They
are still confident that he can do Rowett
with the proper training and when he ia
IN better condition. He himself would
like to try him again and there is every
pos Utility OF the two men coming to-
gether again within a few months.

Washington, Jan. 11.-Jerry Simpson,
Populist representative in the House
from Kansas, said to-day
tMy attention has been called to
statement by William ]. Bryan in Chi
cago to the effect that in the Presidential
contest of 1900 it would be the part of
wisdom for the Democrats to again unite
with the Populists and free silver Repub-
licans not only concur sin this view,
but tic not believe that the Democrats
can muster votes enough at the polls to
beat the gold standard advocates, for that
includes large number OF the Demo
cratic party, and to offset this lead they
must get Populists and free silver votes.
In my opinion Bryan can get nearly the
solid vote Of these two parties. Nominate
any other man than Bryan, and it means
four years more Of Republican rule in
the national affairs of this country"
