INJUNCTION PROCEEDINGS AT
CINCINNATI OPENED.
PROMOTERS ARE CONFIDENT
Say Fight Will Be Pulled Off
and Continue Their
Preparations.

Cincinnati, Feb. 5-Arguments and
testimony were heard today before
Judge Hollister, of the common pleas
court, on the application for an in
junction against the Jeffries- Rubin
prize fight in this city February Is.
There was first an attempt by the
defense to dismiss all the members Of
the Saengerfest board who are not
members of the Athletic association.
There are II of the 81 included in this
list.
Attorney General Sheets, who rep
resents Governor Nash and the state,
protested and asked for a temporary
injunction against the IL who have
not fled an answer.
The court decided that an injunction
later could go out to them.
After considerable sparring among
the attornesy it was then decided that
the case would proceed on it's merits
for a permanent injunction rather
than for a temporary restraining order,
but the defense reserved the right Of
appeal to the higher courts.
Judging from the slow progress
made today and the loug list of wit
nesses it is believed that the hearing
will not be completed this week and
that the decision of Judge Hollister
may not be had until next week.
After submitting contracts and
other documents only four witnesses
were examined today.
The promoters of the fight tonight
insist that they are more confident
than ever that the fight would be
pulled Off here. Jeffries never let up
on his training to attend trial and
Ruhlin resumed his training in the
afternoon.
The sale of tickets today was I'M
usually large and all preparations for
the event are going ahead the same as
if there was no opposition.
Cincinnati, Feb. 6-The second day
of the Jetfries Rubin prize fight
cases in court brought no indication
as to when the hearing will be CON
cluded.
The state is making strong efforts to
show that the two fights scheduled
for this city are a nuisance under the
Ohio law, this being the ground on
which a permanent Injunction is asked
for.
If Judge Hollister refuses to grant a
restraining ORDER. the saengerfest
Athletic association announces that it
will proceed to pull off the boxing con-
test under the permit Of Mayor
Fleischmann, notwithstanding the op-
position of Governor Nash. The sale
of seats, the training at the quarters
Of Jeff1ies, Rubin, Martin and Childs
and all other preparations for the
event one week from next Friday
night, proceeded today, as usual.
Fenton Lawson, director and secre-
tary in both the musical and the ath-
letic associations. was Il of the prin-
cipal witnesses in the injunction pro-
ceedings today.

PREPARES TO ENTER CANADI-
AN PACIFIC TERRITORY.
new line FROM MONTANA
Part of Present Scheme Contem-
plates Route with Vancouver
for Terminus.

St. Paul, Feb. 5-The Great North
ern's plans IN Washington, Montana
and British Columbia and the country
to the north are shrouded in consider
able mystery, but that the company is
pre- pairing to enter the territory of its
enemy, the Canadian Pacific, there
cannot longer be any doubt. There
is considerably more on foot than the
mere building of a line north from the
line in Montana to connect with the
Grows Nest coal lines. Hills business
in New York has not been altogether
for the purpose of consultations and
combinations.
He has had business of another ma
ture, involving expansion of his west
ern lines. The plans comprise the
building Of a new line which will give
the Great Northern a direct route
from northern Montana to Vancouver.
A few days ago it came out that
the Great Northern had acquired the
charter of the Victoria, Vancouver &
Eastern railroad, which company had
projected a line some 800 miles in
length from the Kootenay mining
cities to British Columbia capitals.
Now comes additional information to
the effect that the Great Northern has
secured options on tracts of land val
ued at $500, 900 in east Vancouver.
The trnct comprises the False creek
water front, a branch of English bay
and valuable terminal property.
The company is said to be planning
the dredging of a deep channel, and it
is presumed that the great ships Hill
is now building will touch at this
point.

KING THROAT.
Eminent Specialist Says It Is Not
Affected.

London, Feb. 5-Professor Sir Felix
Semon, physician for diseases of the
throat to the national hospital for
epilepsy and paralysis and president
Of the archaeological society Of Lon
don, ETC., asks the Associated Press to
say there is positively no word of
truth in the story published in the
United States that King Edward is
STEERING from cancer Of the throat.
Sir Felix Semon wishes it to be called
a "%scandalous invention and ridiculous
report" He hopes this statement
will be a final answer to the cabled
dispatches he is now receiving from
America.
He declares he has not seen the
king for weeks past and that when he
last saw him his throat and general
condition were never better. The
physician adds that anyone hearing the
king speak in public would know in a
minute that there was nothing the
matter with his throat.

ENJOYS DEMAND PUNISHMENT
OF DEAD OFFICIALS.
CHINESE APPEAR SINCERE
Manifest Desire to Come to Terms
and Favorably Impress 7
Foreigners.

Pekin, Feb. 5-The Chinese pleni-
potentiaries, Prince Ching and Ii
Hung Chang, had a protracted meeting
this afternoon with the foreign ENJOYS.
Twelve names Of prominent Chinese
officials were submitted with the re-
quest that China keep faith with the
powers and punish the persons named
commensurately with their %offenses.
The Chinese plenipotentiaries re-
piled that China's earnest hope was to
carry out fully the demands of the
powers and that she felt sure the
punishment which would be inflicted
would be satisfactory.
It was discovered that two out of
the IL persons named we're already
dead.
In certain cases the Chinese plenipo-
tentiaries gave reasons why the punish
ment inflicted should be Punishment
and not death, asserting that in those
cases they particularly desired Danish
ment only because the persons in ques-
tion were SO closely related to the
throAe.
After a long conversation on the
subject of punishment, it was decided
that the foreign ENJOYS should draw
up a full list Of those accused officials,
both national and provincial, with in
dictments specifying the guilt and ex-
tent Of the punishment required,
which would then be presented to the
Chinese plenipotentiaries for definite
action.
Ii Hung Chang, who is very weak
from his recent illness, had to be car
ried in and out of the British lega,
ton. He is unable to walk, but his
head seems as clear as ever.
The foreign ENJOYS We're impressed
with the evident desire of both Prince
Ching and Ii Hung Chang to come to
terms. Prince Ching asked, whether,
provided China showed by every
means in her power a desire to carry
out the terms Of the joint note, the
foreign troops would leave Pekin.
The foreign ENJOYS replied that this
was a subject they could not discuss
beyond saying that if everything were
satisfactory they believed the powers
would begin to withdraw the troops
early in the coming spring, but thai
this depended largely upon the Chinese
themselves,

ARM
On the Best T erms Offered
by any Company.

We are prepared to make loans on
improved farms for a term of ten years,
with interest payable annually. We
will give the borroWerer the privilege
of making payment of as much as
one-afth Of the principal at any time
each year, thereby stopping the inter-
est on the amount paid. By this
method the borrower is enabled to pay
off the full amount of the loan in five
years The privilege to pay one-fifth
each year is optional with the borrow
er. He can, if he chooses, keep the
loan for the full time No extra charge
for this privilege. which enables the
farmer to be out of debt in five years if
he chooses. Should the borrower COM
clude to pay only one-tenth of his loan
each year, he would then be out of
debt at the end of ten years, As most
borrowers pay the agent a commission
for their loans, it is very easy to see
the advantage of the above plan. Tt
enables the farmer to save the expens-
es Of making new loan every three
or five years. Our mortgages have no
gold clause.
Ifyou want a loan, Investigate OH
plan before going elsewhere. Address
