I NOTHING TO BE GAINED- By Waiting ; putting off your buying a little longer—— making the old affairs do'the. work intended for new, this season’s goods. It lacks the spice of satisfaction. There’s such a vast differ- ence between the fashionable fabrics and made-up articles of last seasonand this, both in strength of colorings, nov- elty of weaves, shapes, and a hundred and one little kinks, that it is noticeable to a marked degree—more so than usual, it would seem.

A Positive Statement That All Difficulties, Present or Prospective, Have Been Surmountcd—Mayor Waiters Very Much In Evidence; CHICAGO, Oct. 14.-—Certainty at last has been reached as solid as a rook. The Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight is ‘fixed, and IS sure as the big hills of Arkansas. - The fact was ascertained last night that, as definitely as any human event can be announced in advance as a certainty, the great mill, beyond question, will take place at Hot Springs on schedule time It is now known definitely by those few to whom such information is absolutely es- sential what course will be pursued, and regardless of seeming difficulties, present or prospective, all shadow of doubt is now removed that the fight is to occur on the date set and at the site already selected at Hot Springs. . President E. M. Dickey of the Hot Springs railroad was seen at the Chicago club last night by a press representative. ' Mr. Dickey said: “Of course I cannot speak as to what action Governor Clark or any judge or other official may take re- garding the fight. It is only necessary to say that sufficient assurance has been re- ceived from public and private sources to justify the railroad company in making the necessary preparations to take care of all special cars, building as much side track as may be required. ” No place in the country is better equip- ped than Hot Springs for such an emerg- ency, and the 800 hotels and boarding houses of the place are actively getting in shape to properly receive the crowd of peo- ple expected. Seems to Be 3 Sure Thing. Mr. Dickey wished particular stress to be given as to the sufficiency of the hotel accommodations at Hot Springs and the absence of any disposition toward exor— bitant charges or bulldozing. Two of the leading hotel managers, Mr. Hogaboom of the Park and Mr. Jackson of the East- man, are in Chicago engaging extra help and making other preparations on a scale commensurate with the expected influx of 25, 000 visitors. Each of the hotels named accommodates under ordinary circum~ stances 800 guests, and if pushed can prop- elry house 1,500 apiece. Others of the ho- tels have scarcely less generous quarters, and aside from the many boarding places the railroad company is preparing side track enoughfor about 500 special cars. Twenty special car parties‘ are being made up in Chicago alone. The total expenditure in preparation for the fight, including output for track, ex- tra trains and extra engines, etc., is esti- mated at $100,000.. Ninety cars of lum- ber are being hauled to the, springs for fight purposes. Attention is significantly called to these actions’and the confidence otherwise shown in the preparations. The fact is also pointed out that the contract on behalf of Hot Springs has not been made by irresponsible speculative sporting men, but by the mayor and city attorney, who may be relied upon, particularly in view of other developments, to have made sure of their ground. The Situation at Hot Springs. HOT SPRINGS, Ark., Oct. 14.—The an- nouncement that Governor Clark is deter- mined to prevent the Corbett-Fitzsim- mons mill produced no apparent effect in this center of activity in the pugilistio world today. Sheriff Houpt has not al- lowed himself to be interviewed or said just what he intends to do further than that the authorities can rely upon him to do his duty under the law. The actions of Mayor Waters can be taken as a criterion by which to judge the attitude of the city officials. Whatever these officials may think of the standtaken by Governor Clark they are‘uncommunicative. Brady arrived here last night. He was received by a dep- utation headed by Mayor Waters. A mass meeting of citizens was held for the purpose of raising by popular sub- scription the sum of $5,000 as a guarantee for the Florida Athletic club. Mayor Wa- ters called the meeting to order, referred to the distressed condition of the business interests here and the financial benefit the city must derive from the contest if it is brought off here. Captain S. M. Stitt, president of the Arlington Hotel company, was elected chairman. A public subscrip- tion blank was prepared and passed around. The necessary amount was sub- scribed and paid in within five minutes from the time the list was started. Joe Vendig of the Florida Athletic club was present. He said: “Corbett and Fitz. simmons will be here by Tuesday. Train- ing quarters are being prepared for them at Spring Lake and Mountain Valley. The lumber will get here from Dallas in time to put 200 men to work Tuesday. You can say that the contest will surel take place here on Oct. 31.” - Joined the G. A. R. WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.-—Admiral George Brown, the ranking officer of the navy and commandant of the Norfolk navy yard, has returned to this city from In- dianapolis, where he was initiated into ~the Grand Army of the Republic on Wed- .nesday, the charge and badge having been given to him by Commander In Chief Walker. ,‘then-Admiral Brown retires on reaching the age limit in April, after 48 years’. service, he will live in Indianapolis. fl‘he’ ‘Belgic at Yokosuka.

Louis Itern Preferred That to Spending Two “’eeks In Jail. _ NEW YORK, Oct. 14.—To escape spend- ing days in a. German prison Louis Stern, the dry goods merchant of this city, for feited $20,000 bail. He arrived here Fri day on the St. Louis. His action will pre- vent him visiting Germany ever again without being arrested there. Mr. Stern went abroad in June with his family. He and one of his sens visited ,the Kur garden at Kissingen. The regu- lations of the garden deny admission to boys not 15 years old. Although his son was on his sixteenth year, the officials or- dered him to take his son away. Mr. Stern‘refused, and Baron von Tbuengcn, general superintedent and deputy com- missioner of the spa, used harsh language, to which Mr. Stern replied by telling the baron that if he would step outside he would pull his nose. The baron had Mr. Stern arrested. Mr. Stern’s friends appealed to the American consul, then to the American minister and finally to the state depart- ment. Nevertheless nothing resulted, for Mr. Stern was sentenced to pay a fine of 600 marks and go to jail for 14 days. The case was appealed, and while waiting for a decision Mr. Stern spent his time in Paris._ ties were intent on imprisoning him Mr. Stern took passage on the St. Louis. DEATH IN A HURRICANE. lieved to Have Been Lost. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 14.—-Private ad- vices from Guaymas yesterday estimate that the steamers Diego, Mazatlan and ,another small gulf coaster have been lost, with all on board. The crafts were right in the path of Thursday’s hurricane, and nothing has been heard of them, though one was due at Guaymas and the other at Mazatlan some days ago. A number of minors, American and Mexican, took passage on the steamers, and if it is true that the vessels went down 100 lives have probably been lost. There is great difficulty in communicat- ing with the districts visited by the gale. The storm referred to destroyed the town of La Paz, the capital of Lower Cal- ifornia, and drove 19 vessels ashore there, sinking a. Mexican revenue cutter. The entire cane crop of the state of Sinaloa was destroyed, and in that state and So- nora. the damage, it is thought, will cost millions of dollars to make good. In the town of La Paz, which had a. population of about 3,000, four persons were killed and 21 injured, and 18; houses, including all the principal buildings, wore demolished. INSANE ASYLUM BRUTALITY. Keepers Conbery and Mack Charged With the Murder of a Patient. MORRISTOWN, N. J ., Oct. 14,—Henry Conbery and William Mack, keepers in the State Hospital For the Insane at Mor- ris Plains, have been held without bail, charged with the murder of Nicholas Dol- fuz, a pauper patient from Passaic coun. ty. Dolfuz, who was about 60 years of age, had been in the institution for some time, and his mental delusions Were such as to make him violent attimes. . Yesterday morning the inspector of cor- ridors in the institution discovered Con- bery and Mack in the act of administrat- ing brutal heating to the patient and at once discharged them. Later the old man was found dead, and medical examina- tion showed a number of severe , bruises which he had received, it is now charged, at the hands of the keepers. They were arrestrgl‘ and will have to stand trial for the murder of Dnlfuz. Signor 'I‘amagno Seriously Ill. LONDON, Oct. 14.—A dispatch from Varese, Italy, announces the sudden ill- ness of Signor Tamagno, the operatic ten- or. Siguor Tamegno, who was visiting in Varese, suddenly fell to the floor, and when picked up was found to be uncon- scious. An examination by physicians showed his illness to be a cardiac affec- tion. All Signor Tamagno’s engagements have been cancelled in consequence of his illness. Factories Consolidate. .- NEW BRUNSWICK, N. J., Oct. 14.-——The United States Rubber company’s plant and the New Brunswick Rubber com- pany’s factory in this city have closed down. The cause of the shut down is the consolidation of the companies under the name of the United States Rubber com- .pany.

PITTSBURG, Oct. 14.—-The joint conven- tion of the coal operators and miners ad- journed after adopting the scale of 1892 for “dead Work” and fixing a differential rate of 20 cents per ton at all mines where a store is operated after J an. 1.

Discriminated Against.‘ Joined by the Republicans In .Denonncing the Interference ‘of the Church. SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 14.—Political circles are agitated today, over a report that at a. secret meeting of the priesthood of the Mormon church a few days ago Hon. MosesyThatchcr and E. H. Roberts were disciplined for participating in poll- tics without permission of the church au- thorities. Thatcher is a candidate for con- gress, and Roberts is a candidate for rep- l resentativfe‘. , Democratic politicians construe this as a notice from the church that the Repub« lican ticket should be elected. Just why these tWo gentlemen were signaled for discipline while there are other church officials on both tickets is - something which Democratic politicians claim they do not understand. They cite the factthat Joseph F. Smith, one of the counsellors to the first presidency, openly . advocated and urged the election of the Republican ticket last year, and that , Apostle John Henry Smith was a member and president of the constitutional con- vention, to which no exception was taken by the church officials. Church Permission. The Democratic party has been waging a vigorous campaign, with the 7 claim that their chances for success were about even, but now admit that their chances as against church influence would be next to hopeless. The Republicans claim that in tholast campaign the Republican church officials who took an active part in poll- ; tics had the permission of the church to do 50, whereas in the present case such per- mission’was neither sought nor granted. Judge Powers, chairman of the Dem- ocratic committee, in a. published inter- view says: “If we find that our efforts are to be thwarted, our money wasted; our victory surreptitiously taken from us, I shall ad- vise the state committee to give me au- ocrats of Utah, giving that convention power to consider the propriety of taking disbanding the Democratic party and ads vising the voters of Utah to vote down the constitution and to vote in favor of a ter- ritorial form of government until we are certainthat all our people'from the high- est to the lowest will be free to act polit- ically, as their judgment and their con- science dictate. Every man in Utah must have the very fullest freedom of political action, and no ecclesiastical authority can be allowed in any degree to meddle with our political affairs.” A Republican Protest. George M. Cannon, chairman of the lie— publican state central committee, was seen. He said so for as church influence was concerned he had heard nothing of it. He said indications pointed strongly to a. Republican victory, and he believed the rumor was a subterfuge of the Democrats, who feel that they are lost and want an excuse for falling. The Argus, Republican paper, in yester- day’s issue said: “Much as The Argus desires a~Repulr lican victory, we nevertheless say here openly that we prefer defeat by all means than a victory we might obtain that should be stained with the suspicion of Mormon church control or dictation.” The Herald, the leading Democrat pa- per, says: “It is better, now that this issue should be raised, that it be settled before Utah becomes a state than to meet it when statehood becomes a reality. ” Chairman Powers said last evening that a meeting of the territorial committee had been called for tomorrow to discuss polit- ical matters, and it might result in call- ing another Democratic convention for the purpose of issuing a declaration of inde- pendence to the people Of Utah. Most of the leading Mormons were out of the city yesterday, and their views could not be obtained. Marblchead Ordered to Syria. WASHINGTON, Oct. 12.—-—At the request of Mr. Terrell, the minister to Turkey who asked for the protection of the Ameri- can missionaries in Turkey, the assistant secretary of the navy today ordered _the United States cruiser Marblehead to pro- ceed at once to the gulf of Alexandrett-a. lllDlSlillEDlllllllllSJAIIMIIIIEUDLIISIIIBJDIIEIL'IDE.
