Danae, Oct. ii.-—A puzzling turn ‘was
taken by Governor Culberson and his ud-
minlstration, which created some surprise
not only at the headquarters of the Flori-
da Athletic club, but among the people
generally who heard it. It looksns if the
glove contest affair hasheached the war-tr»
the-knife stage so far as Governor Culber-
son and Attorney General (lruno are con-
corned:
Attachment papers were received by
Shoriii Cable from Austin to he served
on W. K. \Vheelock, secretary of the Flori-
da Athletic club; W. A. Brady, manager
of James J. Corbett; Martin A. Julian.

ing on tho Central train, coming from San
Antonio. They at once proceeded to the
headquarters of the Florida Athletic club,
where Mr. Brady mot Mayor Waters and
City Attorney Martin of Hot Springs,
who haVe been here several days in con-
sultation with President Dan Stuart.
While Mr. Brady was talking to the
Arkansas men Shoriil Cable orltcrcd the
club and announced that he had tittnch-
wants for W. K. thelock, W. A. Brady,

Brady and Win-clock gave bonds in the
sum of 8150 each for their apmuranco.
Martin Julian, accompanied by Ernest
Roobcr, arrived at it a. m. on tho"Knty"
train from the south and proceeded to the
Oriental hotel. The first man to introduce
himself to Julian was Sheriff t‘nblc.
Julian also gave bonds.
Joe Vondig was duo in Dallas last ethn—
ing. Mr. Stuart's friends say that it is
now clear that the governor and attorney
general uro not so fiercely uftcr prizo
fighters as they are after llun Stuart,
whom for political and minor ri-usons tin-y
have determined to crush if there is suiti-
cicnt powur in their positions.
The friends of llir. Stuart say that tho
very fact that Stuart is not summoned
below the Travis county prundy‘ury shows
that his testimony is not. desired, but
rather tostimonyuuninst him. 'l‘hoy claim
that. .lho governor and attorney gout-rill
have trumped up on old musty low which
they liopo to Inuko servo their purpose.

The pormlty for such conspiracy under
the Texas criminal oodo is “ciiiiilnomout

Tho question has Iil'l'll riskod. “What's

Tim meoting to select and settlo upon

as harsh to an oxtromo dogroo.

“I do not really know anything about

Hot Springs are in linilus negotiating
with tho immugors of the affair indicates
beyond doubt that list Springs wants it,
and they will very likely got it."

"My position in regard to it is well
known. You may say that i will do ovary-
thing in my power to prevent the light;
that I will go as far as the law as it stands

”Mr. Martin is city attorney at Hot
Springs and is a lawyer of touch ability.
He knows as wall as myself or any one
else just how far my authority as govern

ed in the matter on the theory that I, as

just what I shall do. I am not disposed

legislature at that time and voted for the
bill. But the people were not satisfied
with that law, tor the very next session
repealed it and enacted in its stead a law
reducing the offense to a misdemeanor.
That is the law now, and it will be en-
forced. .
"Were the legislature to he called I have
little reason to believe that the state law
would be changed. Nine out of the ten
senators now in commission are members
who voted for the law as it stands on the
statute books. .’ ’
Governor Clarke said that he had no
doubt that the local peace officers would
avlolntion of the law be threatened at
Hot Springs or elsewhere in Arkansas.
Corbett's Trainers Arrested.
Sim Amparo, Ten, Oct. ii.—-I)cianey,
Duly, Donaldson, Joe Corbett, trainers of
the champion, were. arrested by Deputy
Sharia Navier on an attachment from tho
Travhi county grand jury citing them to
appear at Austin today. They were given
the option of giving bond and going by
themselves, but they elected to go with
the oilicers, as by submitting to custody
the expense of the triple thrown on the
state. Corbett does not know what the
move means. When asked, he said:
“1 hour that they are going to charge
us with conspiracy to violate a law of the
state. I was not aware that we were con-
splrlng for any such purpose, because as
soon as we learned there was a law in
Texas prohibiting the light we abandoned
all intention of fighting in this state.”
The matter does not worry Corbett in
tholoast except that the absence of his
trainers will rcturd his work for it day or
two. Ilo received a telegram during the
afternoon from Brady at Dallas saying
that the prospects are that Hot Springs
or some place in New Mexico will be
chosen for the battleground.
Generous Offer From London.
Nuw'Youk, Oct. il.—1\iany hands seem
to be stretched out for tho Corbett-Fitz-
simmons fight, and if the championship
is not decided between them it will not be
because of lack of opportunity to fight.
The latest offer of a purse and guarantee
of nonintcrfcronco comes from London.
A cablogrinn from that city to a well
known sporting man here reads as fol-
lows:
“Mirror of Life agrees to bring all Cor-
bett-h‘itzsimmons fight; oll‘ors £3,000 and
diamond bolt valued at £1,000, to fight in
England, the principals to select their
own reforco. One thousand pounds will
be placed in the hands of Al Smith as a
guarantee by Mirror of Life that the fight
will take place. "
A copy of this oublegrum was telegraphed
to both Corbett and Fitzslrnmons, and an
early answer from the pngiilsts is expect-
cd. It is said that the National Sporting
club is behind the odor of Mirror of Life.

In Registering This Year.
VOTERS DESOBIBE THEMSELVES.
The (Silicon Who Wants to Vote Ilust
Give His Pedigree and Description For
Identification—Men With Red Hair Get
Angry.
New Your, Oct. i).-—It takes something
more serious than a funeral to kill the
sense of humor of the average New York-
or. That is why the voters of the city had
so much quiet fun with the new registry
law yesterday. They enjoyed it. It re-
quires oach voter when registering to give
“an intelligent description of himself” to
the clerks, so that he may be identified in
case of trouble on election day. What
some of the voters thought of themselves
was quaint and curious.
Early in the day in the Thirteenth dis~
trict a fat, well dressed man of about 50
started in to register. At every question
he became more angry. He said he weigh-
ed "ovcr 130, ” and when the clerks in-
sisted that he be more specific he shouted:
“Why in blazes don't you look at my
teeth? Why don’t you feel my ribs, and
ask me if I’m a blgamist or a Mormon?
All you people need to make you a com-
bination of horse dealer and insurance
agent is u little huysecd and a table of
rules!" And he struttod out in high dodg-
con.
Over in the Twentieth tit one place of

bio and aged bull to rage stood all the
questions calmly until the clerk, whose
eyes were ilxed on the book, queried.
"Color of hair?"
"Green, confound you, green! Can’t
you see it’s a pale poo groan?" howled, the
irate subject, pulling off his hat and
pounding it to pieces on the table. Then
he wanted to lick everybody present, sin-
gly and collectively, but was at last in-
duced to leave without killing anybody by
the patient policeman.
Some Voters Got Angry.
Some voters had prepared the answers
to the questions beforehand and road
thom od‘. One man in the Twenty-third,
who wore glasses. raised a royui row when
the clerk wanted to add that fact to the
description. He argued that he did not
always wear glasses; that they might be
broken on election day. and if they were
noted the fact might thus cause him to
lose his vote. .
" You might as well say I wear a white
shirt or a black but, ” he sold, and thou
concluded, “If you put that down, I’ll
sue you for damages."
It did not go. In many of the districts
the sortie question about glasses was raised,
and in almost every instance sustained.
Ono well known Brooklyn policeman,
who weighs 237 pounds, when asked what
his weight was, gravely replied, "I guess
over 76."
“What do you mean by that?" snarled
the already \vorriod clerk. "You Weigh
over 200.”
“You can't prove it by me, " smilingly
replied the voter. “The lost time [was
on the scales I tipped them at 7:”). It‘s a
long time ago, so I shouldn't Wonder if I
was a little lwuvlor now. "
In the Fourteenth district awoll known
man about town and an habituo of the
IlolInmu liouso sworn u lurid yellow and

ills follows: .
