(Concluded from First Puae.) but things are rather inflamed at present, and he can do better work for his cause In Little Rock than at Hot Springs." JOHN 1 SULLIVAN TALKS. "Parson" Davies and his men, John L. Sullivan, Tommy Ryan, Paddy Ryan, Harry Pidgeon and several trainers and assistants, arrived at the Arlington Hotel this noon. Sullivan was the great center of attraction at once and the cx-champlon had a hard time getting away from the throng of men which crowded around him. John L. Sullivan, after he escaped from the 'great mass of fellows who were anxious to greet him, talked willingly of the chances of the b!g fight. "I don't see," he said, "why these fellows cannot get together. If they are reallv anxious to flsht. In fact, I know very' well that if they are dead set o.i lighting they can do It. Governor or no Governor. It looks to me as though Corbett don't care about fighting and Fltz-simmons don't want to. When I fought Kilrain wc had a worse time than this. We were chased into the woods. We had no special trains ?nd no deputy sheriffs to hcln us; more than that, there was a onc-thousind-dollar price over our hsads and a prism wall beforo us. In spite of all that. Jake and I fouid the ring and had our little trouble out. Now. If we did it under such circumstances, these fellows can do it too, and nobody need tell me they cau't, particularly If -they, want to get at each other. There's

another thing I want to, say." continued John L. "I was reported as saying that I wished Corbett success, but that I was not his friend. It has been doubted that I said that, but I did pay It. I meant It, and I say It again. I wish him success as champion, but he Is no friend of mine." The "Parson." when told that a proposition was on foot to have Ryan and Smith come together, said: "I am to have a conference with club officials this afternoon, and after that I will know where I ann. Uyan Is In good condition anl ready for the word. Ar to the general situation and the possibility of the rights coming off without Interference, I know no more than anybody ele. I was toln to come her, with my man. and we are ready. The rest of tho thing now rests with the club." TO CHECKMATE THE GOVERNOR. Governor Clarke is threatened to-night with a legal entanglement that will make the Corbett-Fittslmmons episode a u.aiter for the government courts to handle. Tho numerous attorneys who are working in the interest of the fight have determined to hold the Governor strictly, to the letter of the State law, and any attempt on his part to exceed what they think is his due authority will be met with prompt measures in the United States District Court at Litths Rock. The nature of their contemnlat rd action Is a carefully guarded secret', and the Intense feeling against the Govern ir may result In proceeding of a sensational character. There has been much talk of impeachment during the day, and su:h action Is not altogether Improbable, although no intimation of It is given by those who have the matter in hand. The decision to checkmate Governor Clarke by lecal proceeding was-n?ached at a prolonged conference held at the Arlington Hotel to-day by the attorneys for the athletic club and the citizens' committee. Attorney Murphy, chief counsel for the citizens' committee, and City Attorney Martin were present, with numerous other lawyers, the meeting being held with strict privacy. At the outset attorney Murphy attempted toreach Fltzslmmons's manager. Julian, at Little Rock by telephone. Julian, however, declined to talk to tne Hot Springs people. He sent word that he would employ his own counsel and would care for his own case. This rather discouraged the conferees, but they procured a load of tatutei and went ahead. It was the unanimous opinion of the lawyer present that the State law would not permit the Governor to go further than placing Fltzsimmonn u dt r a peace bond. That done, he would bv at liberty to fight if he wished, the penalty being the forfeit of his bond. The report w as that Governor Clarke would not be content with the peace bond, but would place the prize fighter under restraint and prevent his leaving for Hot Springs. Thi. tho lawyers decided, was an assumption of authority which should not be countenanced. There was much discussion as to how sucli action should be met. There we? some talk of measures which would practically amount to the kidnaping of Fltzsimmons and his guards, but such action was not seriously considered, as it was the desire of the attorneys to stand strictly by the law. nA, hurried message was sent to L!ttle Rock asking if an immediate session of tho LnlteJ States District Court could be held there. An affirmative answer was received and it was decided to take th matter there Immediately on receipt of word that the Governor haJ placed the Australian under restraint other than bonds. The proceedings by which Fltzsimmons will he released in the event of such action will Probably bo habeas corpus, but the attorneys positively refuse to divulge their plans. There Is. apparently, a strong sympathy In Hot Springs for the impeaching of the Governor. The thing has been talked quietly for several days and such measures would receive the strong support of many of the citizens of this section of the State. The interested lawyers, however, say that the matter Is not being considered, and that they know of no suc;i contemplated action. KEEPS THE SPORTS GUESSING. While the arrival to-day of numerous pugilistic celebrities, past and present, causeil much interest and kept the crowd amused, speculation as to the probable bouts between the middle artJ light weights has afforded a vent for the sporting enthusiasm of the members of the fraternity gatherci from all parts of the country, for the big fight Is still the center of Interest, ami the vicissitudes encountered by the gentlemen of the Hot Springs Athletic Club In their undertaking still keeps everybod guessing. The latest question Is what will the Governor Jo next if he succeeJs hi getting Corbett and Filzsimrnons under heavy peace bonds in Pulaski county, as now seems to be h.'s purpose. On . this subject the Governor's representatives in thi cuv will not venture an opinion. If, indeed, they have any official Information on which to base one. Governor Clarke telephoned to Attorney-general Kinsworthy, this afternoon, instructing him to remain In Hot Springs until to-morrow, at which time he will be expected to appear before Chancellor Martin, at Uttle Rock, to represent the State In the proceedings Instituted against Corbett and his party. The Governor aided that he would hold Fltzsimmons In Little Rock until to-morrow. This promise he had no difficulty In keeping, as the proceedings before Circuit Judge Martiu show. The State authorities seem to have no doubt that Corbett and party will appear In court at Little Rock to-monow. in accordance avlth the pledge given by the counsel, to the Governor, through the Attorneygeneral, as mentioned In these dispatches last night. The proceedings against Corbett were instituted before the "Chancellor and, in the event that their promise to waive the service of the warrants issued by Justice of the Peace Rapley and appear in court at Little Rock to-morrow Is not ket. the plan of the State authorities Is to bring them before the Chancellor by force, to bring Corbett and party Into court on the ground that a hearing on the Rapley warrants has not been given "within reasonable time," as provided by law. The State authorities, however, don't believe such a course will be necessary. The limit of the bond under which the prisoners may be held to keep the peace is fixed at J..vw and, while the Governor's representatives admit that he recognizes the possibility that the men may come together even If such an encounter Involved the forfeiture of these bonie, thev will not give an intimation as to what course Gavcrncr Clarke would putsue if thw contingency sho,,lI arise. Attorney-general Kinsworthy says that while he would regard the simultaneous departure of the principals for Hot Sprines, after thev had been released cn police bond, as sufficient evidence thtt they Intended to engage In a prize fight, withaut regard of the court proceedings at Little Uock. he coull not say what view the Governor would take under these circumstances, or what would be his probable policy. Harrr White, trainer for Fltzsimmons, who has been here all day. said to-night that he did not believe there would be any fieht at all between his man and Corbett. "The fact Is," said White, "Fitz Is afraid, and a span of oxen could not drag him in the ring. I know this is so, and have told Fitz that I will train with him no longer. I'm disgusted with the way he acts. He is afraid of Corbett, and you will see that he will never flsht him. I have nothing against Fltzsimmons. except that 7 know he does not mean business in this thing." OH, WHAT A RlKBr llovr iorts View the Action of Fitsslmmons nnd Jallan.' LITTLE ROCK. Ark.. Oct. 31. "I am perfectly willing that this case bo continued until to-morrow." said Martin Julian in Judge Joseph W. Martin's court this afternoon. Had a bomb exploded In the temple of justice It would have created scarcely less sensation among the throng of Interested spectators than did these words. "Oh. what a fluke!" "He don't want to go to Hot Spriusf." "Well, what do you think of that!" These are fair samples of the expressions of utter disgust which flew from mouth to mouth as the disappointed crowd filed out of the court room close on the heels of Martin Julian and Robert Fltzsimmons as they made their way back to. their suite of rooms In the Capitol Hotel, in custody of two deputy sheriffs of Pulaski county. For an hour before the time set for the hearing of the. case a dense throng of people had gouged each other's eyes with their elbows In the coiuilors of the county court house in their mad desire to obtain admission to the room within which Fltzsimmons and Julian were to answer warrants charging them with contemplating an assault on James J. Corbett and r equiring them to keep the peace. Julian had told every. newspaper man who came within hailing distance that ho was Just aching to reach Hot Springs. All morning he had been saying that he would b released on bond this afternoon and go to Hot Springs to-night, anl there claim the CVjo torfeit of the Florida Athletic Club, after receiving which FitzMmmons was ready to flsht Corbett to-morrow on any terms the champion might name. Mr. Julian, early tn the day, received a telegram from Hot Springs stating that Col Gcorre W. .Murphy would be here to defend him In behalf of the club. When tha Hot Sprinss train came, however. It was found that the lawyer was not aboard and would not arrive until to-morrow. Then Julian said he would plca4 his owa caic.

He would go Into court and drmand hi lib-

Manager Julian arose and said without hesitation that be was perfectly willing for a. continuance until to-morrow, tho.e ardent ad mirers ot m .ew .eaiander wno r.ave flrmly believed that Julian and Fitrsimmorw were anxious to reach Hot Spilnga coul l hardly believe their ears. Julian and Fitzsimmon were seh immediately aftr returning to their hotel. Julianstated that the club had promised to ?cnd Colonel Murphy here. and. as the lawyer had failed to arrive, he bad. on the advire of Colonel Murphy's stenographer, consented to the continuance. He paid he K:iei he had no show against such a lawyer n the State had In the cae. and that he did not know what to fay in court. When afkM what effect the postponement of the case, would have on his claim of forfeit money from the Florida Athletic Club he replied none whatever. The club had guarenterri' him protection, he said, and it was not his fault that he had be n arrested. The fault was the club's, and he would demand the forfeit money because b bad Rotten, a near Hot Springs as he could on Oct. .11. Julian and Fltzsimmons were driven over the city this afternoon in a carriace by Jerrv Jsouth. and later paid their retnects to Governor Clarke at the executive office. Fltzsimmons end Julian osme In thl morning at 9:40 o'clock from Pine ItlufT tr charge of Sheriff Dillard, of Miller oo'intv. and Denuty Sheriff Js.e Heard, of LittleReck.

Houpt hst-x a warrant for their airest; and they hr.0. nothing to do but gi with him. WhenSheriff Dillard placed th flchter and manager under arrest Sheriff. Houpt was also arrested. Julian says that Deputy Sheriff Cooper's statement, as telegraphed from Texarkana last night, that every opportunity had been offered Fltzsimmons toelude Sheriff Dillard Is entirely fale. There. as no special train waiting for them. Vfndlg was there with a Cotton ReR road official, and wanted Fltzsimmons to comeever that line to L'ttle Rock. Julian saysth's was a scheme of Vendig's and Cooper's, who is Identified with the citizens' committee of Hot Springs to delay Fltzfiramons'B arrival at Hot Springs until after Oct.

Dan Stuart and th Florida Atheltlc Club, together with th citizens committee cf Hot Springs, of collusion to avoid payment of the forfeit. Manager Julian says that Corbett and his coconspirators have done everything m their power to beat Fltzsimmons. but a soon as he and Rob reach Hot Springs they will be forced to flsht or lay down tnelr hands. He says that when he was at Hot Springs it became evident to him that Corbett was hand in glove with the people, there, and that he (Corbett) did not Intend, to live up to his agreement. Ju'.lan rays that Deputy Sheriff Cooper, who roasted Fltzsimmons In tho Texarkana interviewlast nlht. has acted as a tale-bearer for Corbett all the wav through. When ho Uulian) was at Hot Springs he discovered that everything that he said was conveyed to Corbett and Rrady by Deputy Sheriff Cooper.

It is given out to-night on gcod authority that the Fltzsimmons. and Julian cases will again he continued when thev come up in Judge Martin a court at 2 o'clock to-morrow. It Is Governor Clarke's avowed purpose to have the cases continued from time to time .until the pugilists become thoroughly disgusted and the fight is finally declared ofT. The report sent out from Hot Springs today that the Maher-O'Donnell fight will be brought of on next Monday is Incorrect. Xo fight will occur until the cases against the pugilists and their managers are finally disposed of at Little Rock. MISS YOKE TESTIFIES.
