 Fighting News.
 Hope springs strong in the breast of Terry McGoyern, the featherWel2h hl champion of the world. Terence knows that he did not lose his cham pionship title when Young Cofbett knocked him out in Hartford any more than he would have lost it if Yank Kenny had knocked him out, but for all that he has striven night and day for q return match with his conqueror, who is 126 pound boy and not the champion of any class. Me Governs heart was made glad last night when Young Corbett himself in formed him that he would take him on again, although he is not sure that the Denver fighter will not elude him and thus rob him of chance to re cover the prestige which took flight in Hartford on Thanksgiving Day
 McGoyern W;tS i'll a box in the New York theater last night when he learn ed that Young Corbett was behind the stage with Larry Lawrence, the stage manager. He immediately sought Young Corbett and pleaded for q re turn match at the earliest date possi- ble. The champion bantamweight promised to fight Terry, and the two then retired to the press room, where they agreed to fight next July. .Jo- seph Edmondson represented sam Harris, Terry's manager. at the meet ing. The fighters said they would meet this morning and post q 5000 forfeit.
 If either of them should be defeated between now and July the loser will have to pay the forfeit and the match will be declared off

OLE oLESoN WnN

Chicago, Dec 9.-Ole Oleson defeated 'Biddy Ryan in six rounds of fast lighting before the Chicago Athletic club Saturday night. The lads weighed in at 12S pounds, and George Siler offi- ciaated as referee. Oleson rushed in the first round and hooked q hard left to the jaw. Ryan went to q clinch and OleSon jolted q hard right on the wind
 Ryan fell short continually with right and left swings. OleSon countered him sharply several times and had all the best of the work at close quarters
 Oleson forced matters in the second round and found Ryan's jaw but the blow landed too high to do much dam- age. Ryan rushed and a series of ral- lies ensued. The round ended in Ole, sons favor. The third and fourth rounds were Oleson's by big margin
 Ryan was willing and kept on forcing, but judged distance badly and missed again and again with left and right A left jab split Ryan's lips in the fifth and Oleson rushed him to tic ropes. Ryan fought back viciously and landed q couple of right swings to the head that staggered the Swede. The sixth and final round found Ryan game but tired. Oleson cut out the. pace. caught his with several stiff right-hand up- percutS on the chin and smashed him all over the ring. Oleson had his man on the ropes pounding, stomach aud kidneys at the bell. Tn the semi-wind- up. Clarence Forbes was given q de- ciSion over Kid Herman In six rounds

ELIZABETH CITY, N. C., Dec. g. The opinion still prevails here that Nell Cropsey was either abducted or mur- dered. The Pasquotank river was dragged yesterday more systematical- ly than ever, but without securing q trace of the missing girl. The search for Miss Cropsey will continue without any abatement of energy. Chief of Po- lice Dawson has returned here from Norfolk, whither he went to investi- gate a report that the girl had been seen in Norfolk and had taken a steam CT there for Baltimore. He says a young woman answering somewhat the description of Miss Cropsey did leave Norfolk for Baltimore, but in his opinion she was not Nell Cropsey.

SIBERIAN EXPLORATION.

The Jesup Expedition Returns With
 Valuable Collections.
 ST. PETERSBURG, Dec. 9.-Vladi- mir Bogoraz, the leader of the Siberian department of the Jesup north Pacific expedition, who returned to St. Peters burg last month after nearly 8 year and half of exploration in northern Siberia, was invited to lecture before the Imperial Geographical society in this city. A large company assembled to hear him, but word came at the last moment that lie had been expelled from the city by the police. The cause of this action was said to be an article published by Mir. Bogoraz in local newspaper.
 From other members of the Jesup expedition some information was gain ed of the work accomplished. This ex- petition left San Francisco March, IT, 1900, for Vladivostok by way of Japan. The aims were to gather material about the origin of the American races and their affinities with Asiatic tribes, to make useful geological and botanical collections and to add to the general Knowledge of the little explored coun- try around the sea of Okhotsk.
 In June, 1900, MT. Bogoraz went to the Anodyr country, and on July A MT. Jackelson and his companion, Mir. Axelrad of Zurich, went to Cujiga. Mir. Bogoraz made a study of the Kam- chatkan and Kariaks and then pro- ceeded northward nearly to Boring strait He sledged about 10000 yersts. His entire collections embrace 12.000 objects, and comparative grammar of the native languages shows them to be- long to the Eskimo group.
 Another member of the expedition, MT. Norman Buxton, directed the zo- ological and botanical work. He re- mained most of the time around Ano- dyr. He shipped sixty-fve tons of col l, lections to New York by sea.

seasonable weather over the greater part of the cotton belt accounted for a good share of the upturn. The Memphis dis trict shows a minimum temperature of 42 degrees for the twenty-four hours up to a. m. The fall months were in rather fair demand for investment buying. Spots are quoted quiet and steady with sales of 1850 bales including amount to arrive. The failure of spots to respond to the im- proved demand for contracts was a de- cided surprise and exercised weaken ing effect at the close. Liverpool was again closed on account of English holi- day.
 The general reports of the growing crop mark a very backward start and many sections indicate very uneven stands. The outlook cannot be considered at all satis- factory.
 In view of the situation we. continue to feel at least for the present favorably inclined to the buying side of the late months on easy or depressed markets.
