At Least Corbett and Fitrsimmoos . g ‘ Both Say That They Will. ANO I‘HER MATCH ARRANGED Each Man Posts 35,000 to Fight For 810,- 000 a Side and. the Largest Purse Ofi‘ered, Within Sixty Days After the Sharkey- Contest. 1 . NEW YORK, Sept. 14.—Robert Fitzsim~ mons and James J. Corbett are again matched to box for the heavyweight cham- pionship of the world, and this time both men mean fight, or at least they say they do. The agreement was reached in a room on the fifth floor of the Bartholdghotel, and at the conclusion of the discussion the two boxers drank wine and shook hands. The meeting was a friendly one in the extreme, and, although a very - small table separated the pugilists. no blows were struck, and nothing more than an occasional hard look was passed. As a result of half an hour’s talk the men agreed to box to a finish for the lar- gest purse offered and a side stake of $10,- 000 each. Corbett agreed to meet Fitzsim- mons two months after his bout with Sharkey, which is to take place, not later than Jan. 1, 1897, and, providing. the Sharkey bout falls through, Corbett will take on Fitzsimmons instead. Articles of agreement will be drawn up and signed by the principals outside of New York state. Each will post $5,000 when the articles are signed, $2,500 60 days before the battle and the remaining $2,500 30 days before the fight. George Siler of Chicago was agreed on as referee. The men tossed for choice of stakeholder and, Corbett winning, selected Al Smith. ' Corbett wanted the momentous meeting to arrange the match held in the Police Gazette building, but Fitzsimmons abso- lutely refused to go there, and so the Bar- tholdi hotel was selected instead. The reason Fitzsimmons declined to meet Corbett in the Police Gazette build- ing is that recently that paper proclaimed that Fitzsimmons had no right to contest for the pugiliétic championship and that Corbett and Sharkey were the, only men who did have such right. Fitzsimmons therefore declined to argue the conditions of such a contest in the Police Gazette ofiice. - ‘ The Meeting. When Fitzsimmons and Corbett faced each other in a room in the Bartholdi ho- tel, a large crowd of sporting men gather- ed about them, eager to hear every word. Martin Julian sat at one end of the table and did much of the talking, although Corbett addressed most of his remarks to Fitzsimmons. Dan Stuart, who will unquestionably Offer a purse for the bout; Dave Holland, the temporary stakeholder; Tom O’Rourke and others were close at hand. Corbett was much milder' in demeanor than for- ' merly, but he stirred up a little feeling by accusing Fitz of an attempt to push him whom he knew he was matched with Sharkey. . “Did you not state,” asked Julian, “that you would meet Fitzsimmons 15 minutes after you had foughtSharkey?” Corbett acknowledged the corn, and Julian responded that the Sharkey match ' did not seem to out much of a figure. Corbett next complained that it would ,1 compel him to tie up $20,000 in the two matches, and Fitzsimmons told him to make his mind easy on that score and put up just what be pleased. “I’ll put up 31,000 to bind the con- tract,” said Corbett. Later on, when he‘ learned that Fitz in- tended to leave $5,000 up, Corbett said he would do likewise. .. “I want it stipulated in the articles of agreement that I will not fight for the Police Gazette belt,” said Fitzsimmons. “And I,” replied Corbett, “want it stated in the articles that I will fight for that belt.” ‘ The decision in this case was a drawn battle. . ' Corbett Accepts Siler. Occasionally Corbett grew conversation- al. “I know,” he said, “that people want to see you and I fight, and I am anxious to have it settled as to who is the best man. When I get through with you I shall retire from the ring.” Fitz simply nodded his head to that statement. . When it came to the question of a referee, Julian suggested Siler. Corbett smiled. He had once before objected to Siler. ' “Tell you what I’ll do,” said Corbett. “I’ll accept a man with whom I’m not on speaking terms. I mean Tom O’Rourke.” . Julian and Fitzsimmons made no re- sponse to this, and finally Corbett said: “Well, I’ll accept Siler, just to show how anxious I am to fight.” In the matter of temporary stakeholder, Fitz said Dave Holland Was satisfactory to him. Corbett said he didn’t know any- thing about Holland. Fitz oflered to toss for choice, and Corbett won. He named Al Smith. . The wine was passed. “May the best man Win,’_’ said Fitz, glancing across at Corbett. » . , . The latter drank to the toast,.and then the gladiators arose, shook hands and separated. ~ _ “Goodby, Fitz. Goodby, Martin,” said Corbett, as he walked out of the room. The ~dove of peace fluttered over the place. ‘_ . ; Fitzsiriimons smiled broadly. “We do things better than we used to do, ” said he. Turkey’s Internal Troubles.

CLEVELAND, Sept. lat—It" is probable that diplomatic complications will arise between the United States and Great Britain over the maintenance on the great lakes of the revenue cutter Walter: Q. Gresham, just launched here. British naval experts hold, after a care- ful examination of the plans of the ves- sel, that she should be classed as a war- ship rather than .as a revenue cutter,.‘and that her maintenance on the lakes would be a violation of the treaty entered into by the United, States and Great Britain whereby only one war vessel can be main- tained 0n the lakes by each government. It is known-that the naval attaches of the British embassy‘at Washington have made a complete report to their government upon the vessel, in which they have classed it as a gunboat. Should complaint be made, the state department will respond by saying ’that the Gresham and the other two similar cutters which areto be built for service service and for nothing else: The state department will also call attention of her majesty’s government to the fact that England was first to adopt this novelty in the construction of the revenue cutters which were built two years ago for the Canadian revenue marine, and that in ad- dition to the novelty of their armament the Canadian vessels carry heavy steel rams. THE WAR IN MADAGASCAR. Slaughter and Pillage Unchecke¢%nd the Rebellions Tribes Gaining. PARIS, Sept. lat—The news received from the island of. Madagascar is of the gravest nature possible. Slaughter and pillage proceed unchecked, trade is at a standstill, there is no safety for Europeans outside of Antananarivo, and even fears are expressedthat the French garrison of that city may be starved out. It appears that the natives are healing the feuds which divided them prior to tbr capture of Antananarivo by the French, and they are now uniting in opposition to the conquerors. The rebellious tribes are rapidly gaining the upper hand, and it is estimated that fully 20,000 additional French troops will be required to crush ’ the outbreak. A Wagonful of Arms. , .

BNGLAND’S LOSS OF 'GOLD. It Agitates Her Bankers. Who May Again Raise the Rate of Discount. LONDON, Sept. 14. —-Y0_ur representative, as the result of inquiries among leading. London bankers and financiers, learns that the bankers generally are in expecta- tion that'a further draft for gold will be made upon Great. Britain by the United States, but none of them will venture to estimate the extent of the draft. As to a further increase of the Bank of England’s rate cf discount, there is no, doubt that the bankwill. raise its rate to 3 per cent in the event of any large drain of gold from England, and it certainly would not require a drain as large as £6,- 000,000, the sum which it' Was reported yesterday might be reached/to cause a rise in the discount rate. _ The Statist, in an article on , the situa- tion, says: “Nobody can foresee howlarge the American drain of gold will be, but prudent bank‘ directors will lose no time in making their discount rate effective.” Hanged Himself.
