WILLEMSTAD, Curacao, Oct. 16.-
The battle near La Victoria, VeneZu-
Ella, between the army commanded by
President Castro and the revolution
airy forces, which began Monday
morning and resulted in the retire.
merit Of President Castro to La Vic
toria Tuesday afternoon, was resumed
again fiercely at o'clock Wednesday
morning. At that time the president
had received reinforcements and had
over 5000 men engaged against 1000
revolutionists. The artillery played
part never before seen in Venezuela.
Shortly before o'clock Wednesday
afternoon the revolutionists appeared
to have gained slight advantage.
The presidents artillery, which num-
bered fifteen guns, had been reduced
to four guns. La Victoria was crowd
ed with wounded and there were no
provisions in the town.
The British cruiser Indefatigable
has left La Guaira for Tucacas with
provisions for the foreign residents
there, some Of whom are said to be
dying of hunger as a result Of the con-
ceptration measures adopted by the
Venezuelan authorities. The Indefati-
gable, to accomplish her mission, will
have to run the blockage of Tucacas.
The German cruiser Vineta has also
left La Guaira, and it is regarded as
probable that she is also bound for
Tucacas.
The French cruiser Suchet arrived
at Carupano yesterday and entered a
protest against the arbitrary arrest OF
a French citizen, who was subsequent
ly released with an apology.
Fighting took place Monday and
Tuesday between the government
forces and revolutionists at Carupano.
The German cruiser Panther has
forced the entrance of the Orinoco riv-
er and has reached Ciudad Bolivar to
Pre- tect German interests there.

A Regular Surgeon Makes His Rounds

Animals at the Central Park 'Zoo'' lay
up corns for a rainy day; that is they
grow corns, and when a rainy day comes
and visitors are few the keepers bring in
the chiropodist. Yesterday being rainy,
the keeper, William Snyder, gave orders
to prepare for manicure day."
Tom and julie, two elephants, have had
the doctors services before, and when he
appeared with his manicure" tools in
a bag they recognized him. and Tom held
out his trunk. The doctor gave him the
bag, and Tom shook 1t until the tools rat
tied, Toms ponderous foot was raised
and placed upon a wooden stand, and the
operation began. The troublesome corns
were removed without the necessity Of
resort to the elephant saw, reserved for
unusually stubborn growths, and the big
animal made apparent the relief he felt.
Some of the doctors tools were dulled by
the numerous incisions.
Jules feet We're inspected, but her soles
were in much better shape than Toms,
and it was decided to let her corns grow
some more before operating on them.
The doctor visited several animals whose
feet he has manicured at times. and all
Of them seemed to recognize him. He
thought the rhinoceros needed attention,
but wisely decided that he would get his
tools sharpened first-New York Herald.

This morning DR.. Williams will take
the squad to Lake Minnetonka, where
the men will remain until Saturday
noon. The practice will be held at
Woolnough's farm, where there will be
no possible chance for outsiders to see
the men work. The Minnesota coaches
have been very strict in conducting
the practice. Only a favored few have
been allowed to see the kickers work
on Northror field, but despite the iron
clad rules spies have been able to get
a line on the signals Of the style of
work being followed out by the Go
pliers. Strangers have been seen to
peer through the knot holes and cracks
in the fence, giving the impression
that their presence is for other pur-
poses than watching the men
out Of mere curiosity In order to
avoid this the plan of taking the squad
at Minnetonka was decided upon.
Signs of nervousness have commence
ed to appear in the ranks of the ma
room and gold followers. Coach Booth

Joe Bernstein Gives the Champion
Hard Punches for His Money.

BALTIMORE, Md, Oct. 16.-Young
Corbett, the champion featherweight
pugilist of the world, was awarded
the decision over Joe Bernstein, of
New York, ''the Ghetto champion"
before the Eureka Athletic club to-
night, IN Music hall. The men were to
have boxed ten rounds to a decision at
catchweights. Bernstein was in the
pink Of condition and weighed in this
afternoon at 124h pounds. The cham
pion looked as though he had not
trained an hour for the battle, and was
beefy. He declined to give his weight.
With the call Of time the men went
at it, hammer and tongs. The New
York boy was the favorite with the
$500 spectators, and his every telling
blow was cheered to the echo. Bern
stein, in the third round, landed a
right swing, which opened the Denver
boys left eye, and throughout the bat
tie the claret flowed freely from the
wound.
After five rounds Of sparring, the
champion went after Bernstein, and
a succession Of rushes followed. He
found that the New Yorker gave as
good as ne received and showed no
inclination to Shirk At the end of
the seventh round Bernstein called
Referee Joe Pollock, of New York, to
his corner, and showed him that a
small bone in his left hand was
broken, and Bernstein's seconds then
threw up the sponge.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct 16.-One
of the best sparring contests ever wit
messed in this city took place tonight
at the Pennsylvania Art club, be-
tween Marvin Hart, Of Louisville, and
Kid Carter, of Brooklyn. The two men
were in fine form, and for six rounds
they were at it, hammer and tongs,
demonstrating conclusively their en-
tire ability to give and take any
amount Of punishment. Although I'M
der the law no decisions are permitted
in this city, the audience was unani-
nous in declaring the bout a draw.
In the third round a hard blow on
the jaw sent Hart to the floor, and he
shrewdly took the count, the brief re-
spite being sufficient for him to re-
cover his strength. The bout was a
combination of science and of Drawn,
with which both men were amply sup
Piled
During the entire six rounds they
slugged, with scarcely an intermis-
sion. When the final gong sounded
both Hart and Carter showed the ef-
fects Of their strenuous work. They
had been severely punished and show
ed signs Of WEAKNESS, but were evil
