The Champion StiII the FayOrite
Among the Bettors.
NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-Pietures of the
contest between jim Jeffries and Tom
Sharkey may be taken after all. The man.
ayers of the rival boxers are considering
several suggestions by prominent electri-
clans, and if the experiments which have
been tried during the past few days are
successful a Photographic reproduction OF
the battle will be made Jsffries is working
with might and main and is near TO fighting
trim.
There was quite lull around Sharkey's
camp today Outside of a jog on the road,
he did practically nothing. He expects
to begin work again next week. However,
all his labor will be OF a playful nature and
he Will not tax his strength. Sharkey
wishes the fight would take place tomorrow,
and does not relish the forced vacation
which he is now enjoying. Sharkey's fol-
lowers are becoming more numerous every
day. Despite this sudden allegiance TO the
sailor the odds DO not change. The rate
rules still at 10 to Z against him. Billy
Madden. who thinks the fight Will be a
fast one wants to match Gus Rubin
against the winner Madden Is OF the opin-
ion that Rubin can defeat either Sharkey
or Jaffries, and Will consent that ell the
purse shall go to the winner. Morris Krauss
wagsred 5000 to $500 on Sharkay today with
Max Lipshurtz. of London. Ths latter :
money represents a commission from sew
eral English sports II was said today that
Charley Mitchell IS coming over from Eng
land TO witness the contest and viii brins

BONDING COMPANY GIVEN UP.
Projectors Of the Concern Decide to
Abandon 1t.


The National Bonding Company, re-
Gently incorporated. but which has not be
gun business or been fully organized, y II
not be foated. A meeting of the directors
OF the company was held yesterday, and
it was unanimously decided TO give up
the attempt to start it at this time. The
subscription books will be closed and the
subscriptions already received, amounting,
ii is said, to about $3.50 000 capital and sur
plus. viii be returned.
Two reasons are given for the abandon
Eent of the company, which, however, are
really only one in effect. 1t is said that
the business OF the bonding companies IS
already so cut up among them that there
has been a general cutting Of rates, which
reduces the profits of the concerns TO a
minimum. II is known also that subscrip-
tons 10 the Washington concern did not
come in as rapidly as was expected, and
that IL fact, there was little exDe- tation
tEat the total capital stock would be sub
scrIbed in the near future. The supposi-
tion Of the directors is that this was due
10 a general belief that the company
would not be q paying concern at least for
a long period in the future.
The National Bonding Company was
planned several months ago. The trust
companies Of the District were largely in
tereSted in it. partially on the theory that
il would prevent outside competition in
the District. There were in addition to the
representatives OF the trust companies
number of the most prominent financial
men CT the city among the directors. The
plan was 10 form the company under the
Federal law providing for the establish
ment Of such companies in the District.
This law allows concerns important priv
ileEes, and IL is also advantageous in that
IL places them under the supervision Ct the
Comptroller Of the Currency, and provides
that they may be proceeded against in the
Federal courts. Ii was believed by the
originatoTs that with these advantages the
I company would be able 10 get q large
share Of the bonding business of the Dis
tIict and also to secure a large national
business.
Subscriptions did not come in very rap
idly after the projectors had taken the
! amounts Of stock that they personally de-
sired. The projectors then went to New
/ York to look over the field fully. About
/ half the capital stock was taken up. They
were advised 10 give up the attempt 10
! form the company at this time at least.
I New York capitalists furthermore cid not
wish 10 subscribe. Il was suggested that
the old companies which are already cut
I ting rates heavily would be certain TO be
particularly active against a new cone Il.
John B. Wight, who was nsmad by the di-
/ rectcrs as the president of the company,
and who had, it is understood, condition
ally rendered his resignation as District
! Commissioner 10 President Mckinley, W Il
I now not give up the District Commission

The Health officers Searching for
Three Suspects Who Escaped.
Harry Shaw, the man who escaped the
vigilance of the smallpox inspectors has
not been heard from. It now appears that
two more inmates Of the house where the
smallpox cases were first discovered, 941 II
Street northwest have escaped. They are
Dennis Shea and George Hot The
health authorities did not know Of their
escape until yesterday. and it was not
given out when Shaw's absence was made
public because the inspectors fe-t sure
that they could capture the men cas- ly.
They have not succeeded, however, and
have no clew to their whereabouts. The
officials appear TO be in quandary as to
Row TO effect the arrest Of these men.
The law against suspects running at
large is very strict but there appears to
be no way in which they can be apprehend-
ed. The police cannot be called on to ar
rest them, il is said, Us that would b ex-
posing the officers TO the disease, and the
police officials would not permit 1t.
The health officials state, however, that
they are making every effort to find the
men, and when they are found they will be
placed in the house with the other board
ers and kept there until the period Of
quarantine has expired 1t has been as
certained positively that Shaw has left
the city. The officials Of the Health once
stated last night that he had gone back to
his Virginia home as soon as he learned
that he had been exposed to the disease.
No new cases have been reported and the
work Of disinfecting the places which have
become infected through the presence of
those having been exposed to the disease
is about completed. with the exception Of
the house where the outbreak occurred,
which VIII be closed for period Of six

ers in the house, a Miss Balleuger, Is a

was closed yesterday and thoroughly fumi-

AsBURY BARK, N. J., Oct 26.-Cham-
pion Jeffries complained of sore neck
when he finished training this afternoon.
He thinks that while wrestling with Roe
Der yesterday afternoon his neck got
slight wrench. The injury did not prevent
the Californian from doing a hard days
work. He modified his training a little
this afternoon and omitted the customary
six-round bout with Tommy Ryan. For
half an hour he punched the bag furiously
and then skipped the rope nearly thou
sand times. AS the date for the fight ap-
proaches, Jeffries seems more confident
that he will win. 1t would be impossible
for a fighter to be in any better shape than
the champion, and should he lose he will
have no excuse TO offer.
