The big fight for the heavyweight cham

Seaside Athletic Club. Coney Island. Tom
O'Rourke. matchmaker of the club and
George Considine and Billy Brady, mana
gers of Corbett and Jeffries respectively
have completed all the details for the con-
test. Charley White will referee the mill
Both Jeffries and Corbett are already fit to
enter the ring. and each is confident of
coming out of the battle victorious.
During the last few weeks Corbett has
won many admirers. who will doubtless
back him to win. 1t Is said by those who
have seen him work that he is 30 per cent
better than when he tackled 5harkey. His
fCotwOrk Is superb while his left-hand jab
surpasses anything ever seen. The ruddi-
ness of youth Is in his big cheek, his step is
light and his eyes bright.
Il will win," says Jim.
Corbett. at least, thinks he will win.
He works like a w;hirlwind. From medt-
cine bag to punching bag. from pulley
weights to a hot set-to with Trainer Rub
lin. he goes in due order. It's short. sharp.
decisive action; no more iong-drawn-out
sieges of vigor-sapping drudgery; no more
working until ready to drop from exhaus-
ton.
Jim's working hours have become as
child's play. his road work mere galiop.
and the rest of his time Is spent out in the
open air and sleeping the sleep that comes
to master of the "mitts'' who sees an
easy road to the throne of the champion.
Champion Jeffries confined his training to
light road work yesterday, taking things
easy the latter part of the day.
JEFF seems to have about reached perfect
condition, and he could easily cut down hts
work now. He is conscientious trainer;
he can't do too much to satisfy himself, so
he has resumed hard work and will proba-
bly, keep it up in the few days left be-
tween now and Friday

CONSIDERING THE NAVAL BILL.
Amendment to CurtaiI Increase In
Marines Tabled,

The Senate was occupied in considering
the naval appropriation bill yesterday after
noon after The Stars report of the proceed
ings was closed. Mr.. Chambers amendment
to curtail the Increase of the marine corps
created some debate. and It was finally laid
on the table-3O to IA
The amendment relating to the cadets at
the Naval Academy was passed over tenn
porarily.
The committee amendment prohibiting the
appointment of additional officers and en-
listment of privates in the marine corps was
vigorously antagonized. Mr. Stewart thought
the amendment looked to the abandonment
or our Island possessions and the serious
Gripping of an arm of the navy.
Mr.. Foraker was opposed to the amend
ment in any form. The marine corps was
now short 800 men and forty officers. He
said the cCrps had made a splendid record
for efficiency. and he thought 1t ought not
to be curtailed.
In response To uueStio~ r, NJ r'~~~r,or.
Mr.. Chandler, the author of the amendmenk,
said this was the Oniy ameiil.i4rl.. II. IN
bill looking to a reduction Of expenses The
proper proportion of marines and seamen
in the navy was, he thought, about one ma
rine TO five seamen. This would make a
symmetrical naval complement
Mr.. Lodge pointed out that the effect Of
the amendment would be to cut down the
marine corps as provided in the naval per
s'ii4iei Jaw, anu tfaiS he regarded very
unwiSe.
In answer to a suggestion made by Mr..
Ililman. Mr.. Lodge said he did not approve
OF Keeping naval officers engaged at clerical
work on shore He thought they ought to

Mr.. Chandler further insisted that too
many officers were engaged in shore duty
There We're, he said, between COO and 100 on
such duty.

ment.

It was impossible to prevent its spread to
several other outbuildings. One OF the
structures destroyed was used as a kennel,
containing fine, blooded stock. The greater
number Of the dogs were rescued, but. as
far as can be learned, about seven persisted
in the flames. Some Of the dogs lost We're
