ROOT BELIEVES PEACE
IS NOT FAR DISTANT

WASHINGTON. Nov. 2.-Secretary
Root expressed the opinion to-day that
the rebellion in Luzon would be at an end
by Christmas. Adjutant General Corbin
also IS confident that peace will shortly
reign in the Philippines. and he said to-
day that he did not see how Aguinaldo
could long keep out OF the way Of the
American troops. Marines have been
landed at Vigan. twenty miles to the
westward Of Bangued. for which place
Aguinaldo is supposed TO be heading.
Bangued IS the objective OF General
Young, who. with scouts and cavalry and
two battalions Of Infantry. IS proceeding
as rapidly as possible in pursuit of the
insurgeut leader.
The object of the action of the COM
mander Of the Oregon in landing marines
at Vigan IS not explained by General OTIS
dispatch. but II Is presumed IL was for the
purpose of protecting the town. as II Is
hardly TO be supposed that they contem-
plated pursuing the fleeing insurSent
leader. The marines Will be relieved by
troops on Wednesday and General Young

After that battle reports came from the
East that So-and-so or So-andso fought
straight Queensberry rules. according To
my interpretations, and that they gave
the utmost satisfaction. I have noticed
since then that any number of matches
were made and articles signed calling
for straight Queensberry rules. with tn,
exception of hitting with one arm free
or hit on the breakaway.
If hitting with the free arm in a clinch
or on the breakaway is not permissible
why make an exception to them when
signing articles 10 fight under Queens
berry rules?
Jim Corbett argued that point with me
on Abe train going from Hot Springs 10
Little Rock at the time Of the fasco with
Fitzsimmons. claiming that hitting with
the free arm was right. and also stoutly
upheld me at Carson City on the same
point Since then he comes out for clean
breaks etc.
The rules are the same today, but as I
stated above, they are being twisted
about to suit the fighters. For instance
take a fighter on the rangy, slim-built
order, matched TO fight short. stocy,
strong, short-armed fellow. and you Will
invariably find that the first named will
insist that the rules call for clean breaks
and no hitting in clinches. while the 9TH
er fellow will hold that hitting in clinch-
es and on breakaways are the rules, and
there you are.
Corbett and Madden now claim that
clean breaks and no hitting in ciinches
are the rules. and that is how the form
er wants to fight Jeffries.
The latter did not show up 10 good ad-
vantage in hitting in clinches with Shar-
key. and invariably waited until the sail
