Of his section by allowing Chinese-mined
coal from Canada to come into competition
with 4.
Mr.. De Almond MOI said the bill should
have been passed the first day Of the ses-
sion.
Mr.. McDermott IN. J) declared that the
bill was an admitted p%retense and was
merely an attempt to deceive the public
into the belief tina something was being
done. The Limitation Of the time would
prevent foreign coal producers anywhere
from permanently investing capital TO pro-
duce for the American market.
The bill was then passed by 25S TO s.
The house then resumed the consideration
Of the army appropriation bill.
While the army bill was under considera .
tion a message from the senate announced
the passage OF the coal rebate bill with an
amendment permanently removing the duty
on anthracite.
Mr.. Payne IN. " moved to concur in the
amendment. It's reading was applauded on
the democratic side and Mr.. Richardson
remarked that the privilege of making the
motion should have been accorded his side
OF the house. The Amendment was unani-
mously concurred in and the bill passed.
The consideration Of the army bill was
then resumed and at $50 the house sd-
journed.

CORBETT DEFEATS RICE
Featherwsight Boxing Champion Obtains
Decision in Eighteenth Round
LOSER TRIES ONLY TO STAY FULL TIME
DodEes and Fcints, but Never Really
Attacks, Making Right Disappoint-
ing, though I%nterestinE, by
Reason Of clever Footvork

HOT SPRINGS, Ark, Jan. 1i.-Young Cor
bett, the featherweight champion, was
given the decision over Austin Rice Of New
London, Conn, tonight in the eighteenth
round Of what was to have been a twenty
rounC contest before the Wilmington Park
Athletic association.
Just before the end Of the seventeenth
round Corbett landed a stin left swing
glancing on the stock, and as a result Rice
was sick and all but helpless. on the cali
Of time for the eighteenth round Battling
Nelson, Rice's second, threw a towel into
the ring and Corbett was given the de-
cision.
As a whole the fight was disappointing
1t had been freely predicted that Rice would
not stay ten rounds and most Of the bet
ting WAS on that basis. The feature of the
contest was Rice's f~oot-work, but for his
success in lodging Corbett's lunges he
would have gone out in quicker time.
Nearly every round consisted OF rushes
and aggressive fighting by Corbett and
%feinting and lodging by Rice.
Once the champion went to the floor, his
foot slipping as he lodged a lunge from
Rice. Rice fell to his knees under similar
circumstances but both men were on their
feet in an instant.
Rice landed almost as many blows as
the champion, but they lacked force and
did but slight damage. Corbett in return
landed many face blows, but his most
vicious swings or uppercuts we're either
lodged or blocked and those that went
home had small effect.
Rice's fight was purely to stay the
twenty rounds and he fought almost en-
tirely on the defensive. So successful wal
he in lodging that Corbett sawed the air
and ran into the ropes with force.
The fight was refereed by Pat Early, for
merly Of Chicago. At the ringside were
many prominent sporting mC1. Manager
Mullen of the association received many
kilograms from all parts of the country
challenging the winner They were re
ceived with great applause by the spec
tators when read from the ringside.

WOMEN TEACHERS NERVOUS.
German Psychologists Find Large Proportion Seriously Afectcd-
 Fear Deterioration of Race.

Two eminent German physiologists pr. Rolf Wichmann and Dr. Adolf Bir- ham. have arrived at some instructive results from inquiries concerning the prevalence of bad sight and nervous disorders among women students and teachers Forty-two per cent. of the women teachers have to wear glasses, as against ten among women not so employed, and 24 among male teachers.
 Again, 40 per cent of the female teachers are affected with nervous dis orders, while among men similarly employed only 17 per cent. have nerv- ous complaints Long hours and ill., ventilated rooms are held to be the leading causes of these complaints among women. but the result of thes
 investigations has given considerable encouragement to the growing opinion in Germany that general deterioration of the race must follow if women's en- ploymcnt be not carefully chosen.
