FIGHT MAY GO TO
NEW ORLEANS

There is possibility that New
Orleans and not California may see
Battling Nelson in his next star
fight. Nelson has been dickering
with "Matty" Baldwin for an en-
gagement in New Orleans early in
June. The coast promoters had de-
cided to book the former champion
with Cyclone Johnny Thompson for
a long fight in Frisco. The New
Orleans offer carried with it a guar
anteed purse of $4,000 and SO per
cent of the gross receipts for the
winner. AS Baldwin agreed to make
1873 pounds, allowing Nelson to
fight at catch weights, the Battler
was disposed to look with favor
upon the offer.

Folks Anti-secession Sentiment.

But President Polk was always an OPP
ponent of the secession idea, SO that these
utterances provoked no surprise. He con-
tinued:
II rejoice at so great an honor as being
permitted to me under Providence that

as I would recommend in all parts of our
beloved country, the cultivation of that
feeling of brotherhood and mutual regard
between the north and south without
which we may not anticipate the perpe-
tuity of our free Institutions
In every one of a dozen or more adj
dresses delivered by Mr.. Polk in different
cities of Maine he spoke this same
theme. and "implored the people to cher
ish and respect our venerable Union of
states and to transmit it as the choicest of
earthly blessings and as necessary for
the security and happiness of our pos
terity.'
