STUART AFTER THE BIG FIGHT.
Will Offer Purse for Sharkey and
Fitzsimmons.

W. K. Wheelock, who was associated
with Dan Stuart in the management of
the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight at Carson,
is authority for the statement that the
Texas sport is after the proposed cham
plonship contect between Fitzsmmons
and Sharkey. Stuart is at present So
Journing at Hot Springs, Ark. Mr.. Whee-
lock has received several letters from the
famous fight promoter recently, in which
stuart says he is ready to offer purse
for the contest as soon as the men signify
their intention of doing business.
Fitzsimmons best" said Mr.. Wheelock,
but Sharkey may want to hold off
awhile. There is no doubt that Fitz is
the greatest fighter of the age and is en-
feated in the ring. But while believe he
was Sharkey's superior at the time he
fought Corbett 1t is not likely that he is
any better now, while Sharkey has great
ly improved since that time. The men
should enter the ring on even terms, all
though Fitz. being the champion, would
naturally be slight favorite. There are
several places where a finish fight could
advisable to name any place for the con-
test at this time. The pavilion at Carson
is still standing and the people of that
city would give us a warm reception.
Carson labors under the disadvantage,
however of being far from centers of
population and l am afraid the Southern
Pacific would not make the rates sutfi-
GENTLY low to warrant anyone offering a
large purse for a fight in that city. If
the men come together 1t will be finish
fight, as all championship contests must
be decided in that way. If the fight is
brought off by Stuart the public will know
that it is getting a square deal and
run for its money
Mr.. Wheelock says Stuart will be in San
San Francisco within the next thirty days
and by that time he may have some defin-
lite proposition to submit to the fighters.

At Los Angeles.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 29.-The coursing
a. Agricultural Park was considerably
above the average, and the large crowd in
attendance witnessed a great days sport,
though the latter part had to be hurried,
owing to heavy fog, which drifted in
during the afternoon. The hares ran
strong throughout the day, and in several
courses extra dogs had to be turned into
the field to save those in the course. This
was notably the case of the Stella B-Lady
Napoleon course Ga bye. when three eX-
ira dogs were turned loose. and even then
the rabbit would have escaped had it not
run into the fence. The programme was
a 40-dog stake for a $500 purse.
Pat Malloy the San Francisco dog re-
Gently purchased by Frank Passions, won
first money. with Passions Fleetwood sec

LIGHT AIRS WAIT
THE OAKLAND NAVY
CANOE WHIM MAKES BEST TIME
HOUND THE COURSE.
First Sailing Race of the Season of
1899 Was Held Yes
terday.

The first sailing race of 1899 was held
yesterday on Oakland Creek in light but
variable breeze, the prevailing direction
of which was northerly. 1t was the open
ing race of that formerly famous organi-
zation, the Oakland Navy. The course,
officially reckoned at six miles, is TRAN
gular, and the boats. after sailing along
the first leg, returned to the starting
point and thence sailed twice complete
ly over the three legs of the course. The
wind was for the most part on the quar-
ter all round the course, but now and
then the sheets could be Stacked out a
little. The breeze was so light that it
hardly suficed to move the larger boats
at any considerable rate of speed, though
the canoes made fair Roadway under it.
The preparatory signal was fired and
a red flag hoisted at 1:02 o'clock and the
starting gun, from which the times of
all the boats were reckoned, at 1:07 a. m.
The half-rater Ninette, made a pretty
start. She crossed the line before the
gun fire, went about, and returning crossed
the line ahead of the other boats. Dur
ing the earlier part of the race the
Ninette kept the lead; then she was
passed by the canoe Whim, which was
in turn passed by the canoe Gnat, re-
christened Brownie. The Gnat, running
into a calm streak. was passed by the
Whim and the Ninette, the Whim even
tually winning in an elapsed time of
hour rs minutes and sc seconds, followed
by the Ninette, whose elapsed time was
l hour and 81 minutes. The Gnat was
third, having covered the course in

MIR. HENRY NELL, COTTON
EXPERT.

The crop estimates of Mr.. Neill
will be wholly discredited or
wholly indicated by the outturn
Of the present crop, If the crop
be II, 600, 900 bales Mr.. Neill's
judgment will be confirmed, and
his standing will be dangerously
high. 1t is greater now than any
fallible man should command, and
a eleven-million crop this year
would add to the weight Of his
prophetic words.
But a crop of ten million bales
or less would discredit him as
thoroughly in other States and
countries as he now is descredited
in the South. 1t is believed in this
section that he will be thus dis
credited. As an umpire he would
thus be overthrown. AS a govern
or of prices he would be power
less. His utterances would be but
the words of an average man en-
gagged in the cotton trade.
Perhaps the remedy is to be
found in the proposed warehouse
system, under which producers
would become independent of
Mr. Nelll's premature opinions.
If a producer of 100 baless can at
reasonable rates store his cotton,
securing on it at once the money
he needs, he can snap his fingers
at all of Mr.. Neill's opinions that
he has eason to believe are I'M
founded. No other remedy is per,
haps SO thorough. The mere over
throw of Mr. Neill will not suffice,
for other false prophets would
arise, and some of them might
not be as cautious as Mr.. Neill is.
Two OF three lucky crop guesses
makes a prophet. Every neigh
borhood has them. Mr.. Neill is a
prophet on a large scale. He aims
to do crop-guessing for the whole
world, while most of his brethren
r content with a local reputa-
ton. The list of lucky crop-guess-
ers is large, and the suppression
of Mr. Neill, who is chronic bear,
will not put an end to the evil.

COTTON MILL

The news that Mr.. Frank L..
Robbins. formely of Concord,
but for the past year superin-
tendent of the Wayne Cotton Mil
of this city, has resigned will be
received with sincere regret by
the many friends he has made
among US since his advent to our
midst. His administration Of the
Wayne Mill has been the most
satisfactory in it's history and
his resignation is as reluctantly
received by the stockholders as
it is rendered by Mr.. Robbins;
but a wider and more inviting field
has opened to him, and duty to
himself and his family dictates the
change. He has become one of
the purchasers of the Kesler
Cotton Mill, at Salisbury. N. c.,
and will become its superinten-
Qenr, as wei, ana ne leaVS o MS
new post at an early date.
His successor as superintendent
of the Wayne Mill is Mr.. K. J..
Davis, who is one of the best all
round cotton mill men in the
State, and is at present superina
tendent of the Albemarle Mill,
which is the largest and most COM
plete cotton mill in the South,
The securing of Mr.. Davis is
the best possible earnest that the
Wayne Mill is still on the upward
grade, and is determined to make
no step backward.

The Davis Monument.
Richmond Times.

Richmond Times.
Now that the Daughters of the
Confederacy have undertaken
the work of building monument
to President Davis, it goes with
out saying that the monument
will soon be erected. We do not
mean to reflect upon those devot-
ed Confederates who have had
this matter in hand, but the wo-
men of the South are in a better
position than the men to raise
the necessary funds. They
have more time to devote to the
work and when they make an ap-
peal the men never turn to them
the deaf ear. It is a great under
taking, but the Daughters of the
Confederacy are equal to it and
they will not fail.
It has been suggested time and
again that a monument be erect
ed to the women of the Confed>
eracy. The Davis monument
will be their monument, and the
only monument that they desire.
