TEN THOUSAND TO SEE THE
ENTHUSIASTICALLY FIGHT.
Public Interest Keyed up to High Pitch
Preachers EndeavOr to Prevent
the Mill.
(By the Associated Press.)


San Francisco, Nov. 14.-With the
Jeffries- Rubin championship battle but
twenty four hours away, public interest
is keyed up to high pitch All day
long enthusiasts have been fiocking into
the city from far and near. 1t is evident
at this time that Mechanics Pavilion,
where the fight will take place, will be
taxed to its utmost capacity. This
means that fully ten thousand people
will witness the fight.
A group of clergymen have been striv-
ing all day to induce the officers of the
law to stop the mill, but they have re-
ceived no encouragement. Tonight they
paid their respects to Mayor Phelan and
there received the same information
which was impaired to them by the Dis
trict Attorney and Chief of Detectives.
They were appraised of the fact that
while a State law prohibits prize fight
ing, local ordinance countenance box
ing exhibitions held under the auspices
of an incorporated club and that the lat
ter measure precludes all possibility of
the city fathers stopping the fight at
this juncture. The police, if they be-
lieve the mill to be brutal, and therefore
beyond the pale of a legitimate exhibit
ton with gloves, may enter the ring
and stop the bout after it starts, but not
before
Rubin spent the day in rest and quiet.
He was in consultation with Billy Mad
den several times during the day, re-
ceiving advice from his manager. The
Akron fighter ate a hearty breakfast,
took ding stroll along the ocean beach
in the morning and played cards part OF
the afternoon.
.Teffries was a tri1e more active. but
his exertions were provoked by the So
cial demands upon him by admirine
friends with whom he walked and talked
during the afternoon.
The training ordeal is at. an end, and
the trainers of both fighters are anxious
now simply to keep their man from get
ting trifle stale or possibly mentally
depressed. Jeffries is full of life and
smilingly declares that he will beat
Rubin along about the tenth or twelfth
round.
The picture company placed its lights
in position today and will take kineti-
scope pictures of the contest.

the Inter- State and Foreign Commerce
Committee of the House and Representa-
tive Sherman, of New York, member of
the same committee. had long confer
ence with the President today about the

nal Bill, which passed the House at the
stantially the same form in which it was
passed last winter No delay is antici-
pated in the committee as the whole
subject has been canvassed thoroughly.
Colonel Hepburn told the President that
the bill undoubtedly would command a
large majority in the House. The Gable
Bill also will be practically identical
with the one reported from the commit
tee during the last Congress. 1t provd-
ed for the laying of the cable by pri-
vate corporation under contract with

tive provision for the building of the
cable by the Government if no satisfac-

Vote Bonds For the Road.

There is a movement on foot to build
the Raleigh and Eastern Railway, which
was surveyed to Wakefield more than a
year ago.
There is nothing that Raleigh needs
more than the development of the east
ern section of the county, which, as yet,
has never penetrated by railroad.
The people in that Section of the coun-
ty are very anxious for the road and a
gentleman who was here yesterday, said
they would vote bonds if necessary to
get this railroad. At present they go to
Wilson, Springhope, Louisburg and
other adjacent markets to dispose of the
tobacco cotton and other products. The
gentleman here from Wakefield yester-
day said Raleigh was their preference,
and that if they had this railroad they
would gladly trade here.
Several we'll known business men who
have been discussing the need of this
road said yesterday that they favored
the issue Of $4,000 or SIS, 900 in bonds by
Raleigh township to build the Raleigh
and Eastern, if necessary. A merchant
who was present said:
THE people of Raleigh township
should see that this road is built, even
if it requires bond issue to build it. |

railroad in North Carolina. 1t is the
virgin section of Wake county, and the

and cotton territory offer splendid in
ducements to capitalists to build a road.
j believe the construction of this road
would make Raleigh a big tobacco
market. That the road would be sue

The gentlemen who are undertaking to
build the Raleigh and Eastern are men
of means, but as it will require $250,000
to build the road and equip it, they will
have to receive outside help. The build
ing of this road would be a big thing for
Raleigh, and merchants and business
men fully realize this.

COTTON CROP TALK.
In the Lower End of Wake the Gins Show
Great Decrease

In the Lower End of Wake the Gins Show a
Great Decrease.
There was a better tone on the cotton
market here yesterday, the price NOV
ing up little.
The report of small crop in this sec
ton continues. Mr.. Geo. Duke, one of
the best farmers in eastern Wake, who
was here yesterday, says that last year
he planted 65 acres and got 80 bales,
while this year from 68 acres he will
only get IL bales.
Speaking of the quantity in the lower
section of the county, here are some fig
ures showing how small the crop is:
Geo. Duke in 1900 ginned 37S bales, this
year Sc. Calvin Mitchell, last year, $50
bales, this year so; Davis Jones, last
year 1884 bales, this year 80; DR.. Fowler,
last year 327 bales, this year IS bales
It will be seen that these four gins in
1900 handled 1,349 bales, while this year
they have only ginned 321, difference
of over thousand bales. 1t shows how
bad the crop has been in that section of
Wake.

The idea and the need of compulsory
education are being discussed by the
farmers of the State. and there is a
general expression of desire for its
enforcement.
This is the view expressed by almost
every farmer who has written to the

speaking of the matter yesterday, Mr..
Warner, the Commissioner said that in
the reports and letters he received he
found that the farmers wanted compul-
