SHARKEY rs TIRED
OF Waiting for Match With Gus
Rubin or Jim Jeffries.


An exchange yesterday published the
following interesting sporting gossip
from New York:
Sharkey is tired of waiting for a
match with Rubin or Jeffries.
His manager and hacker, Barney
Reich, says he will leave up the forfeit
Of $4,000, which he posted weeks ago,
two days more. If, after the expiration
of these two days, neither of the men
mentioned has come to the scratch
and covered the forfeit or shown any
inclination whatever to make a match
with the Sailor, Reich will draw down
his money.
Sharkey is particularly wrought up
over the fact that Rubin has chosen
to go on the road as an actor instead
of accepting his challenge for bat
tie.
II cannot understand what kind Of
a fighter Rubin is said Sharkey to-
day IF he is a lookingglass fighter,
why, then the best thing he can do IS
to stop talking, and not be making
bluffs that he will fight any man in the
world. l suppose he keeps after jeff
ries because he knows that Jeffries is
tied up with his theatrical engage
ments and cannot arrange a meeting
with him.
Now, I stand ready to meet any
man in the world. To show that |
mean business l will state right here
that don't bar any man living. | will
show the public that l am fighter,
not a talker, by taking on any man
who will cover my money and get down
to business.
81 am sick and tired of all this hot
air fighting"
Rubin made his debut last night at
Elizabeth before as large a crowd as
such place could afford the day after
election.
Gus is not what the actor folk call
the "legit," but he was On the stage,
just the same, and did his turn" He
cuffed the ear of an ambitious local
pug, and earned the plaudits of the
people. He wasn't bit tired, either,
| after his go" with the young as
pirant, for he went three rounds with
! big Denver Ed Martin at a rate which
made the spectators feel as though
they were at a real fight.
The bigger portion Of the tenants of
the Mulberry street building have only
one good arm to-day. ]. j. O'Brien,
the Jitsu man, visited the place last
night and demonstrated the effect of
the Japanese mode of bone wrench
ing. There are no weaklings in Chief
Devery's institution. Prof O'Brien
visited the police outfit merely to see
the place. Detective Sergeant Charley
Meehan showed him about, and the Jap
gripman showed his appreciation when
about to leave by extending a Jit Jitsu
handshake. Meehan uttered a shrill
"ouch, and wondered what happen
ed. Then explanations were in line.
That portion of New Works sleuths
who were in the building and were
attracted by Meehan's yell rushed out
to see what was the matter.
Some thought they could resist the
twist, but, big and small, they met the
| flor when O'Briens hand clutched
theirs. There were slight dislocations,
| just as reminders that the hand is
mightier than the club when is is
| known.

Lost by Fire.

1t is believed that the fire at the Globe
tea store early yesterday morning was
caused by fire in a stove. which had
been kindled for the purpose of drying
the plaster in the new second story OF
the building. The loss is estimated al
1880. A large portion of the new and old
woodwork of the house was burned and
nearly the entire stock of goods was de-
stroyed or damaged. The loss is partly
covered by insurance.

Received Yesterday by r. Schenk q

Palace Car Company-Wonderfu
Development Within the Past Few
Years In One of Wheeling's Largest
Manufacturer.

With the decided increase of their line
of business in the past few years. F.
Sehenk & Sons Company. Wheeling's big
pork packing establishment, have found
for supplying their products to their pat
rons.s With a view to that end they
ordered some time ago twenty-five of the
latest improved refrigerator cars from the
Pullman Palace Car Co., and most of the
new cars arrived here yesterday. These
cars are especially adapted for the haul
ing of fresh meats.
The cars are very handsomely finished.
On each side is the inscription. IF. Schenk
& Sons Company. Fresh Meat Express
There is also the firm trademark. The
temperature can also run below freezing
at any season Of the year. The car. each
cost s., 100
In speaking Of the matter last night, a
member of the firm stated that the trade
has been built up wonderfully within the
extending so largely that it was found
necessary to increase their facilities for
supplying the trade, as the railroads can
not be depended upon to supply suffi-
Client number of refrigerator cars. The
company also expects to establish banch
supply houses in all the larger cities in
the east. The new cars will also be used
in supplying the foreign trade, carrying
the product to the seaboard.
The growth of F. Schenk &
Sons Company demonstrates the advan-
tages of Wheeling as a supply centre, and
also the mere fact that they can compete
with the larger concerns of the kind
throughout the country further estab-
fishes this city in industrial circles as a
very advantageous location for large man
ufactories
