FORTUNE FOR A FIGHT.

NEW YORK, May 27-Tom O'Rourke
says the Lenox Athletic club will offer a
purse of $4,000 for match between Fitz-
simmoA and Sharkey providing the
champion defeats Jeffries in the coming
fight. This Is by far the largest purse
evey offered for a fistic event
Although Fitzsimmons has announced
his unwillingness to fight at the Lenox
club he would, no doubt. withdraw his
objection to accept a chance at this for

Sharkey, could retire and still be the

legitimate aspirant for the honors In
sight.

LONDON, May 3.-Representatives of
the Filipino junta say that they have
received a telegram from Aguinaldo,
dated April 30, in which he states that
his government has nothing to do with
the present peace negotiations, which,
he asserts, are being conducted by a
group of half castles and creoles, who
are anxious for peace in the expectation
of getting high Offices under a new gov
ernment. Several of these men, Aguin-
aldo says, are members of the Filipino
congress, where they are endeavoring
ts outvote him. Aguinaldo added that
he had had no direct negotiations with
che Americans since the fall of Malolos,
when certain proposals passed between
Mr.. D. G. Worcester, of the American
Philippine commission and a represen-
tative of Aguinaldo. looking to peace
based upon independence with an
American alliance. Aguinaldo disa-
vows the present negotiations, and adds
that under no circumstances will he &C.

dispatch concludes with contemptuous
reference to Major Argueless as Span
ish officer who has no more authority to
act on behalf of Aguinaldo than has

COMBINES TO COMBINE.
All the Large Steel Interests to BE
Merged Into One Company.

All the Large Steel Interests to BE
Merged Into One Company.
NEW YORK, May S.-The Times says:
The rumors of an immense combination
OF steel interests are practically con-
tirmed by John w. Gates, president of
the American Steel and Wire company,
who returned from European trip on
Saturday. The combination, unless the
present plans of the promoters are
changed, will include practically all the
big concerns of the country, and will
have capitalization of between $780,
100000 and SsOO.OOO,O0O. The proposed
combination is yet far from complete in
point of detail, but the presence in this
city of the representatives of the great
est steel interests of the United States
led Mr.. Gates to says that in all proba-
bility the next few days will see it
whipped into tangible shape.
Gas I have just returned from
abroad Mr.. Gates explained, II can
not go into details in this matter, but it
is pretty safe to say that the cnmbina-
tion will go through, and that its capi-
tai will nearly be $500, 100000. About
all the big companies may come in, the
principal ones Of which will be the Car
negie company, the National Steel COM
pany, the American Steel and Wire COM
pany, and probably the bar steel inter-
ests, as now represented by the Repub-
lie Steel company"

FUNSTON A BRIGADIER.

President Recognizes the Value Of His
Services In the Campaign. -
WASHINGTON, May 3.-The president

ment was recommended by Major Gen
eral Macarthur and supplemented very
strongly by General Otis in a cable dis
patch.
General Arthur said that the services
Of Colonel Funston during the cam

Grande river, deserve recognition such
as his promotion to be brigadier gem
eral, also that as leader of troops,
Colonel Funston was especially valu-
able. The president recognizes the
services of Colonel Funston and his first
official act upon returning to Wash
ington was to make him brigadier
general.
The cable which General Otis sent
says:
Macarthur strongly recommends
Colonel Funston appointment brigadier
general for signal and gallant services
in crossing Rio Grand river, and most
gallant service since commencement of
war. urge appointment; Funston

CHARGES AGAINST BRIGGS.

Some Episcopal Clergymen Accuse Him
of Heresy.
NEW YORK, May st is stated that
certain Episcopal clergymen who are
opposed to the ordination of DR.. Charles
Briggs purpose to prefer charges of
horesy againsthim, which will postpone
the ordination until he shall have
cleared himself. DR.. Briggs, who is a
professor in Union Theological Semina-
ry, convulsed the Presbyterian church
few years ago by his writings, which
were alleged to be unorthodox, and an
effort was made to expel him from the
church. Subsequently he withdrew
from the Presbyterian church and be-
came an Episcopalian, taking deacon's
orders. He has not modified his views,
however. Bishop Potter is a jealous
friend of DR.. Briggs, but some of the
clergy of the diocese are intensely hos
tile to receiving him into the ministry.
