Editor Courier,
Dear Sir: g..
At the request of numerous citizens
I hand you for publication an open let
ter to Rev W. A. Sunday, and signed
by representative men of the city.
I heartily approve the plan suggest
ed in this letter. 7 am aware that
our people are not wholly of one
mind as to Mr.. Sunday but surely all.
will approve Of whatever good his
work has accomplished amongst us,
and. even his warmest friends cannot.
in reason object to the plan purposed,.
I should not think that Cody and
unself1sh man as Mr. Sunday is would
want to take out of our city several
thousand dollars for his labor of five
weeks when there are so many worthy
objects to which it could be devoted
here at home. If he will proclaim his
willingness to join in this plan I will
do all in my power to make the col
lection on next Sabbath the biggest he
ever took UP in one Of his tabernacles.
I believe that I can induce hundreds
of men cIassed as outside Of the
churches to Join in with us on that

road Will Go to Trial On Its Merits.

holds the decision of Chancellor Wood
as 1t is understood that the railroad
attorneys will appeal from the deci-
sion rendered yesterday.
The injunction was granted in the
first place on the grounds of a multi
plicity of suits. there being several
other suits against the railroad COM
panies, growing out of the collision
that occurred some time last year at
the junction of the two roads between
a G.. & S. I. switch engine and a pas
senger train on the M. ]. & X. c.. in
which engineer Barnes lost his life.
1t was to recover damage from the
railroad companies that suit was in
stituted, and number of parties
who were injured in the collision Will
also have suits against the railroad
companies. Neither road will admit
responsibility for the collision.
In the trial yesterday, the complain
ant was represented by Judge N. G.
Hill, Sullivan and TalIey of this city,
and T. H. Campbell of Yazoo City. The
G. & S. l. was represented by R. L.
Dent of Gulfport, and the M. ]. & K.
C. by J. N. Flowers of Jackson.

"On behalf of Mr.. Gompers, it may

YOUNG CORBETT IS
NOT HARD FIGHTER
Brock It Is Expected That He Will
Seek Other Matches-Al Lippe as
Trainer.
(By KNOX BLOCKOFF1

New York, Dec. 12-New York
fight fans are anxiously awaiting to-
nights news from New Orleans, which
will tell whether William RothwelI,
better known as Young Corbett, has
succeeded in escaping from the ranks
of the Down and Out Club. Rothwell
is scheduled to meet Phil Brock, the
Cleveland lightweight, in a ten round
battle before the Southern Athletic
Club at the Crescent City tonight. The
conqueror of McGovern has been
training for the mill by stocking on
the steamer on which he made the
trip TO New Orleans, and if he should
make good in his contest with Brooch,
other pugs may adopt that method of
getting into condition. Reports from
New Orleans state that Young Cor
bett is confident of regaining the rep
that he once had as a clever and
forceful wielder of the mitts.
Before leaving New York Corbett
spent six weeks at Johnson's road
house, and managed to get into fairly
good condition. The trip down South
in the stoker's hole has taken off any
remaining surplus flesh.
Rothwell is the first of the local
scrappers to go South for match
since Jim Buckley announced that he
and Johnny Oliver intended opening
fight club in New Orleans. When
he was offered the match with Phil
Brock Corbett accepted with aIacrity.
Young Corbett was never a real
champion, but by knocking out Ter
ry McGovern he sprang into the pugli-
istic limelight, and when he fought
later with Battling Nelson he was
hailed as the lightweight champion.
He fought McGovern at 1875 pounds,
although the battle was advertised
| to be for the featherweight cham
