C0rbeff Was Mise.

Il sec that Fitzsimmons fills the
role of James j Corbett whenever lie
has sparring bout with Jeffries, -
said Corbett at Croll's the other day.
That's funny. He's supposed to
skip around at top speed so that jeff
ries will get used to the kind of fight
Pm going to give him, eh? 1t is
the first time l knew that Fitz i'm
mons WAS gated to the understudy of
any boxer who is quick. but we live
and learn. l don't suppose that it has
been thoroughly explained yet that
have Yank Kenny here impersonating
Jeffries. Yank is Just as heavy as the
champion and can hold ON lust as
hard when he is tired.''
1t is the opinion of the sporting
public in and around San Francisco
that Jim Corbett turned up the real
trump card when he decided to do n
few days boxing with Tommy Ryan.
Those VINO have seen Corbett toying
with his strong man apparatus and
stepping around with Berger have
been satisfied all along that his
strength and endurance are intact.
and they now ohink that few brisk
bouts with the clever Ryan will trims
form Corbett into very dangerous
championship candidate. While no
set time has been named for the iuit-
ial spar between Ryan and Corbett, II

CENSUS
SHOWS ABOUT 100000
Gen. Sanger and Returns on
Way to Washington.
ASSISTANTS HAVE RETURNED
Civilized Population of Islands About
100000 and Wild Tribes Prob
ably Make Up Balance.

Henry Gannett and Victor H. Olmsted,
who were General Sanger's assistants in
taking the Philippine census. arrived in
Washington this morning. and will be-
gin the preparation of their report as
soon as General Sanger and the census
returns reach Washington.
Mr. Gannett said this morning the to-
tai population Of the islands will prob
ably be shown to be almost 5000 900. A
rough count OF the civilized peoples
shows a total of about 1000. 900. AL
though it was impossible TO obtain an
exact count of the wild tribes. estimates
which have already been received show
the number to be at least CSC. 600. and it
is thought the total will exceed this, as
all of the districts inhabited by unciv-
ilized tribes have not been heard from.
Census Taking Under Difficulties.
1t is believed the census will show the
population of the islands TO be 10 per
cent greater than the most liberal es.i-
mates made The wild tribes are chiefly
in the islands of Mindanao and Luz01.
and consequently the returns from those

sus returns are also on the Sherman.

ports. with the assistance of General

NO PLANS YET DRAWN
FOR HALL OF RECORDS
Department Waiting on Close OF
Litigation Over Site.

Preliminary plans for the new Hall of
Records will not be drawn until the liti-
cation over lot IL. in square 143. is ad-
justed. according to officials at the
Treasury Department. II is said how
ever. it would be possible to draw the
preliminary plans nov. as the Govern
ment is practically assured of getting
the title to the entire site. 1t may be
found expedient later to have the pre-
liminary plans made without waiting for
the litigation over lot IL TO be deter
mined. in case that litigation is too long
drawn out.
At the department. Il is denied here
is any intention OF sending a commission
TO France and England TO look into
buildings of a similar character there.
II is acknowledged however. such pTo-
cedure might be found advisable. Con-
gress made no provision for such con-
mission, and If any investigation of this
kind is made IL will have to be done on
the responsibility OF the department.

FINED FOR WORK DONE
BY Ok-UNION WORKERS
Penalty of Over $40, 600 Imposed
on Employer.

CHICAGO, Sept 1S.-A labor settle
ment involving the payment of pen
atty similar TO that demanded by the
structural iron workers in the Hisdou
cases has been made by the brick
makers.
The workers at the plant OF Alexander
Burke went on a strike three weeks ago.
Burke engaged non-union men and kept
his plant going. making eighty thousand
bricks. Then he arrived at an agreement
with the union men by which he dis
charged the outsiders and granted the
original demands. AS a penalty for his
employment of the non-union men. he
agreed to pay the union men double
price for putting the bricks in the kiln.
The regular price for this work is 81
cents thousand, and the proprietor
is virtually fined SO cents a thousand
for all the bricks made by non-union
labor.
