Ark.. Nov. 1. There is now a probability that the big flsht will come off. The time will be within a week anl the location somewhere In the State of Louisiana, the exact spot to be determined later. This much was decided on late this afternoon after the trials of Corbett and Fitzslmmons had been adjourned. Brady was cross and out of temper. Ills interlview with the Governor upset him still more and an announcement that Dan Stuart had left Hot Fprings for Little Rock with a proposition to have the fight come off at Kl Paso, for a purse of J20.0U0, aroused his Ire to a greater pitch. "1 will not go to EI Paso," exclaimed Drady, hotly, 'for'UO.OW or any other amount. If I go there I will have the same trouble' with the courts as I have been having here, and I will be bullied and badgered in this way no longer. The Governor has Informed me that he will drop the proceedings against us If we will not fight In Arkansas, and now I will make this proposition, and it Is 'my ultimatum: If it is not accepted, within twenty-four hours after the dismissal of tho warrants by the Governor the whole thing Is off and the championship goes North with Corbett, We will listen to no more propositions and make no more concessions. It is this or nothing. I will accept one man for referee from the list prepared by Julian and select the battleground. If he Is not willing that I should select the fighting ground I will let him select one newspap-r man.. I will select a second, the two to chocse each a third and let them pick out the place for the fight. We will light him for JIO.OOO a side, and for nothing lesa than that. Corhett will not fight him for nothing. I have my money right here," and he showed it as he spoke, "and that Is what talks. Now. what more can I do? We have agreed to allow him his own man for' referee. We will even fight .on his own ground if he knows of a place, or let a jury of newspaper men decide It for him. Now let him quit or fight. Corbett and I will fool with this thing no longer. I have the thing In my own hands now and no clubs will have anything to say about it." JULIAN WAS SUSPICIOUS. When the proposition to fight at once was first submitted to manager Julian he was not Inclined to commit himself. A commlttre of newspaper men who had been authorized by manager Brady to submit the proportion to Julian and FItzslmmons found the former In his room alone, the Australian beinsr absent. Julian was informed of Governor Clarke's promise to release the men from bonds, "but was very suspicious and not Inclined to believe the story. "You don't know that Governor," he said, "but I do know him, and I don't want any jail experience in mine." UraJy'3 proposal to brins off the light was then submitted anJ the manager was asked Maily if he would fight, all legal complications being removed. He uttempttd to defer hi answir. but, being pros? J hard, finally saij he vvou!J aept the conditions. He was asked if he voukl put up h's JIO.OJ to-night and replioi'that he could no. get it before to-morrow. He was emphatic in his statement, however, that he would have it then and be ready for the battle. A mfsf-nger from Governor Clarko arrived soon afterwards, making the same oiler the ex vutiva had made to BraJy and Julian expressed himself as satisfied with the situation and sai l Fltzsimmona would light. He was s'.iown a d!spateh telling of the proposition to bring oflf the fight at. El Paso but, like Brady, declared that he would not light In or before any club with which Stuart was connected unless his forfeit of was paid, lie finally admitted that Governort, and sheriffs, and th? like were making him nervous and declared that he did not want to take any risks of getting "mixed up with the law." This leaves the situation thus: Brady, for Corbett, has made a proposition to fight; Julian, fr-r Fitzsirarnons, has accepted it, and. If the latter's money goes up to-morrow the battle will probably corne off at a place as yet in doubt. The Mahr-Ol)onnell and Ryan-Smith mills, at Hot Springs, have probably been effectually squelched by the injunction proceedings In Little Rock toORDERED TO SHOOT THEM. Deputy Sheriff Jesse Hurd. in whose custody FItzslmmons is to-night, said that he had received orders from Governor Clarke to kill either Corbett or FItzslmmons, or both of them, if they attacked each other during their stay In Little Rock. The report caused great indignation among the men who were gathered at the hotels to-night and many of them refused to believe that Hurd had made such a statement, much les received any such orders. When asked about the matter ho declared that he had been correctly quoted, and that he had received such orders from Governor Clarke. "That's just what he told me. to do," said the deputy,, "and If these thapa no to scrapping lndependent-Hke, I guess I'll have to shoot a little." He laughed as he raid it, "but vigorously asserted that his orders from the Governor were explicit and that there was no Joke about it. Secretary Wheelock. of the Florida Athletic Club, arrived to-nlxht and at once submitted his proposition to Julian. It was to bring off the fiffht. at El Pa?o on the Vtth of November for a $29,000 purse, with a forfeit of J3.0C0 to each man in case the jrlub be unable to pull the fight through Julian promptly accepted the proposition" stipulating, however, that FItzslmmons receire the $2,500 forfeit from Hot Springs Wheelock evaded the question and later Julian announced that he believed there .was a good chance for a fight in Texas.

lock had reached an agreement with FItzslmmons Brady reiterated his former proposition and declared he would do nothing more than he had done. The American public want to see a fifiht." he said, "and they are weary of the endless Jaw work. We Will not go to El Paso and If my proposition which I have already given Is not accepted Corbett and 1 are through with the ii'hole thing." FitzslmmonM had advertised that he would show at the opera house to-nlKht, Julian claiming to have rtceived - assurance yesterday from the Governor that the show would not be interfered with. But late this afternoon the Little Rock sheriff Issued peremptory orders that - no such exhibition take place. The officials also arrested and placed under JCOO bonds a little German known as "Professor," whom Julian had engaged to spar on the stage at the proposed exhibition. The short and stocky "profe-Hor" created a deal of amusement in Julian's room by rushing there In gieat consternation as soon as released from bond. With his wiry hair straight out from his head and his eyes like a pair of butter dishes, he grabbed Julian by the arm and demanded excitedly: "For why? Hey. For why?" "What's the matter?" demanded the manager. "I have been arrested under $30), because why?" , "That's what I want to know." It took half an hour to pacify him, but he was finally sent away badly scared. Chancellor , Thomas Martin, before whom Corbett's hearing was held, said to-night that he Intended to investigate the prize fighter's rase, no maUer what Governor Clarke may do. He. will not, under any circumstances, he said, dismiss the Corbett and Brady cases until he has heard testimony In them. He declared that the men had come to Arkansas with the avowed Intention of violating the law and that they must now stand the consequences. Brady and Julian received a telegram tonight from Gus'A. Hirschfleld, proprietor of the Palace Clubroom, Phoenix. Ariz., as follows: "Providing. we can guarantee protection, how much money will we have to raise to pull the fight off here? Twenty thousand dollars was paid In bank to-day towards funds. The El Paso people have also wired that their offer of $10,000 guaranteed still holds good.

ACTION OK TIIU COITITM. FltxMlmnions and Corbett Held for ExanilnndonTo-Uay. LITTLE ROCK. Ark., Nov. 1. Governor Clarke, through his attorneys, Rose, Hemingway & Rose, with the Attorney-general, executed another flank movement to-day. An application was filed in Pulaski Chancery Court for a temporary order restraining the following parties from engaging In aiding or abetting a fight with or without gloves: Corbett, FItzslmmons, the Hot' Springs Athletic Association. Brady. Julian, Vendlg, A. K. Wheelock, VV L. Babcock, "ReV Honpt. W. . W. Watters, Peter Maher, Steve O'Donnell and William Delaney. Subpoenas were Issued for all of the defendants named, citing them to appear within twenty days. . The affidavit Is a lengthy one, citing all the facts in connection with the match, from Jacksonville, Fla., to Hot Springs, Ark. It is within the power of the court to grant the applications on the affidavit alone. Julian and FItzslmmons were brought into court at 2:13 p. m. Judge Hemingway, for the State, wanted to know what response had been made to the charge. Colonel Murphy, for the defense,- said that none had been made nor would any be made.. It. was not required" in such proceedings. Attorney Martin stated that the defense was ready to go ahead with the hearing. The State then, through Judge Hemingway, asked that the case be continued in order that the necessary witnesses who are now in Hot Springs might be brought to this city. Judge Murphy stated that the deimse did not controvert any allegation made-by the -State. His clients had been arrested' and brought into court for the Eurpose of being required to give bond to eer the teace. They were there, he said, ready to give the bond. The defence would neither concede - nor affirm any of the State's allegations. Judge Martin held that the State had a right to introduce testimony and the case was continued until 9:30 to-morrow., Corbett and Brady were brought before' Chancellor T. B. Martin at 3 o'clock this afternoon. The defense entered a plev of former conviction and submitted certified copies of the bonds Issued by Justice of the Peace Itapley, of Hot Springs. At this point Chancellor Martin said there was no need of mincing words that it was commonly known that a prize finht was contemplated at Hot Springs. This fact had become notorious. It was a matter, though, to be investigated and as a conservator of the peace and dignity of the State, he proposed to give full and ample opportunity for a thorough . investigation. It was currently reported that the peace officers of Hot Springs were openly aiding to bring about this prize fight. "If such a state of jaffalrs exists." said the Chancellor, "I do 'not hesitate to stigmatize It as an Infamous outrage on the good" name of the State and a disgrace on the community that tolerates it. I think little enoush of men who engage in prize fights, but I have a higher regard for them than I have for some of the men engaged in bringing about the affair." The State wanted time to bring witnesses from Hot Springs, Chancellor Martin said, though he admitted the men were being deprived of their llbertv and were entitled to a speedy hearing, lie intended that both sides to the case should have a fair opportunity to present whatever testimony they had In the matter. A coninuanee would, therefore, be granted until 2:30 o'clock to-morrow afternoon. Th prisoners were remanded to the custody of Sheriff Houpt, of Garland county, the court remarking that the pugilist and his manager were not now In Jail and would not be sent there until the case had been Investigated. AT HOT SPHIXCS. Hopes of the Sports and Hotel Keep.em, at Last lllantetl. HOT SPRINGS, Ark., Nov. 1. The hopelessness of the case of the Hot Springs Athletic Club has at last begun to dawn on the native mini. . From a scene of considerable excitement twenty-four hours ago, the rotunda of Ihe Arlington House, the redezvous of the.pugilists, their backers and the newspaper men who, thus far, have constituted the crowd brought here by the widely circulated reports that a fight was likely to occur. - relapsed Into 'oppressive quiet. The town has fallen Into a state of chronic expectancy, after three weeks of ups and downs, with almost, hourly fluctuations. The proverbial deferred hope which is generally Lelleve l to make the heart sick is unknown to the denizens of the Ozarks. There are no despondent symptoms by which such a diagnosis of his case can be made. He turned tj Little Rock to-day wfth Just as much winfl.ntt oe Vioa ! Krat slnfP the Florida Athletic Club pulled up stakes at the behest of Governor Culberson ana sougnt more congenial surroundings In the mountains of Arkansas. The Hot Springs rooters will not lose faith in the big fight until the principals leave the tnate. The local interest In -the court proceedings at Little Rock has been intense and. aside from a momentary flurry, caused this afternoon, by the hurried departure of ex-Secretary Wheelock. of the Florida Athletic Club, on the 3 o'clock train for Little Rock, this has been the only topic of conversation. The ever hopeful ,sports received a backset to-night, however. A conference between Dan Stuart, Jo Vend iff and others of th Florida Athletic Club, who hung up the purse for the O'Donnell-Maher tight Monday afternoon, was held at the Arlington Hotel to-night, and resulted In the withdrawal of the offer and the announcement that the bout Is off. This sent a-gllmmering the last hopes of a fight in Garland county unless the pugnacious principals resort to a breach of the peace in tho shape of plain assault and battery on the public streets. The officers of the Hot Springs Athletic Club took the announcement more complacently than might have been expected, because the total absence of any eacouragtng news from Little Rock this afternoon or evening had prepared thm for the worst. The principal ourc of regret was that they had not pulled, off the Maher-O'Donnell contest at the opera house last night This plan was suggested, but It met with demonstrative opposition from the revenue element, the men who would profit most by holding off a few days to give opportunity for the assembling of a larger crowd. They carried their point, and to-night they are being roundly denounced by those whose one-absorbing thought h.is been a flsht under any circumstances, regardless of profit to the local bonlfaces and merchants. The citizens committee net about as soon is It lenrned of the decision reached byStuart and his associates to raise a purse for Maher and O'Donnell within it? circle, but the unknown quantity Governor Clarke and the uncertainty that such fight could be pulled off under any circumstances deterred it from anv energetic effort, and it was finally compelled to admit that It was "all off." - Peter Maher. who was present at the conference, pulled his cap down over his eyes, thrust his fists Into hi pockets and strode out of the hotel.. O'Donnell. who had come in from M training quarters at Spring Lake on the S o'clock train, seemed much chagrined . and refused to admit that all rhanco of meeting Maher had vanished. He .hs been much disturbed by the fact that in ail .the local tookr S to 3 has been freely ,

I know I can whip him, and I will not give up all hope of a meeting until 2 o'clock Monday afternoon, I came here to fight. My backers and I are ready, and we may yet get a chance at our man." Ryan and Smith were seen around the hotels to-night, but the apparent complete collapse of the other contests has caused them to lose hope of getting together in the ring in the near future. "Fit Wan Nut Game. ST. LOUIS. Nov. 1.-A special from Little Rock says: FItzslmmons and Corbett came together here In the Capital Hotel this evening, but no serious consequences followed. FItzslmmons was seated In the dining room when Corbett entered. To get by the Australian, Corbett had to walk within a couple of feet of him. As he neared him, Corbett poked his finger at Fitzsimons In a derisive and Insulting manner, at the same time muttering somo unintelligible sound. Every one expected to see a fight, but FUzsimmons was not game. He hastily looked up. flushed, and Corbett walked on. The peacefully Inclined , breathed easier, while the sporting element collapsed. It was a chance for the pair to have one round, at least. Denth of Jack Deinpmey. PORTLAND. Ore., Nov. 1. Jack Dempsey, the well-known pugilist, died at his home in this city this morning of consumption. The end came painlessly at 6: a. m. .Dempsey was fully conscious, and kissed the crucifix before the end came. His last utterance was to call his wife's name.' About 11 o'clock last night there was a perceptible change in his condition, and it s-oon became apparent that th6 end was not far off. He began to suffer much rain and frequently vomited. He grew deirlous, and In his delirium re.iewed his ring career, frequently uttering the name of Jimmy Carroll. About 4 o'clock this morning he became conscious again ani realized the near approach of death. His two children were brought Into the room and he bade them good-bye. He then bade his wife and friends at his bedside goodbye and relapsed into a semi-eonsciousi state, continuing thus until Just before the end.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.' ' ' HAMMOND,' Ind.. Nov. L The racing season for 1S9" In this vicinity is closed. Starter Dick Dwyer dropped th flag at Forsythe this afternoon for the last time this year and a large crowd turned to ward Chicago with a sigh, regretting the fact that "it's all over now." The racing season in Lake county has been one- of sensations. First came the Roby Fair Association which began a fifteen-day meeting April 13 on the old Roby track. Before that meeting had run its limit came the Roby Breeders' Association, with Rod Wells as president, which began at the expiration of the first meeting. Everything went along swlmingly until Kd. Corrlgan got Julius Dunslng, a dry goods clerk of this city, to bring an injunction against the new concern. Then came- the Hammond Fair Association, with Louie Hohm, of this city, as president, which secured a lease on the track for fifteen days and began a meeting which was stopped June 21 by an Injunction "brought in the Circuit Court by Governor Matthews. Matters then remained In a dormant state until the old Hawthorne and Harlem people found out that they could no longer run races on those tracks and late In the summer began preparations for a season of racing on new tracks In this county. A new track was hurrldly put In shape at Sheffield and on Sept. 2S began racing. The fences and building were literally thrown together. Lovers of racing had been so long debarred from their favorite sport that they were willing to put up -with anything. By the time racing was over on that track another had been built by Messrs. Brennock and Burk at Forsyth and .everything was ready for another fifteen days. Now that meeting has closed and as It is too late to build another track this year there will be no more racing In Lake county until next year. By spring many improvements will be made on the old track and still another new one will 'be built and with four, tracks it Is thought there will be continuous racing for 180 days next year. All the buildings now on the Sheffield track will be removed and new ones, erected. A handsome grandstand will be built which will accommodate ten thousand spectators. The track proper will be covered with several inches of loam and made one of the fastest in the West. If the management carry out Its present programme many of the noted horses will spend the summer in this county next year. There will be a number of stake races for large purses, which will justify the owners of the best horses in the world in bringing them here. All the purses will be increased and everything possible will be done to revive the sport. The meetings Just closed have been profitable enough to justify, the managers in taking this course and everything seems rosy for continuous racing next year. Five thousand people were at the track this afternoon. The programme contained six races, and nearly every stable on the track was given a chance to earn getaway money. The great race of the day was the fourth, in which Eagle Bird, Magnet, Bowling Green and Commercial were the starters. Eagle Bird and Magnet were made even favorites, and they finished heads apart, with Eagle Bird in the lead. Tomorrow will witness the departure of most of the horses. Many of them will go to California, while others will go to New Orleans and Kansas City. The meeting has been a success in every sense. Jamboree AVlnn n. Race. CINCINNATI, Nov. 1. There are no new developments Jn the Wild Huntsman case at-Laton!a; the Judges are expecting further evidence. Five races were . run today over a heavy, mucky track. Dr. McLean's Jamboree won his first race since he galloped away with the Tennessee Derby In 1891. He won to-day Just as easily. The only close finish was between Domingo and Star Ruby, the latter winning in the last jump, owing to Domingo's swerving in the finish. Summaries: First Race Nine furlongs.

Nov. 1. A local paper tomorrow will say: The charges made by representative Spaniards In Spain and this city that Gomez has been a tra'.tor to his own country, Santo Domingo, that he had signed the treaty of peace at Zanjon In 1878 for a money consideration and that the dispatches which stated that the Cuban general had resigned were undoubtedly true, fell like a bombshell in the Insurgent camp yesterday morning. Senor Palma denounce t the reports as infamous libels en a man whom the insurgents have come to regard as their Lafayette. "It Is a Jumble of distorted facts and untruths," he said, emphatically. "I will explain: General Gomez was born in Santo Domingo, lie was a lieutenant In the army. For some time a state verging on anarchy had been existing in Santo Domingo, until, In . 1S8, two parties were formed, one being the ' Annexationist, the ether the Independent party. The first, thinking It would be better for Santo Domingo if it were annexed to Spain, asked that country to send an army to oppose the Independents and place Santo Domingo under its domination. Gomez belonged to the Annexationists, and. believing that annexation would be the best means of securing tranquillity and put an end to internal strife, joined the Spanish forces and fought for annexation. Hut the Spaniards were defeated and driven back to their own country. Gomez, like many of his party, soon found his error. It was then that the treaty of peace was signed at Zanjon. Gomez absolutely refused to. sign that treaty. It was said that Gomez received from Spain JCC0 for his services, which he returned to Spain shortly after he had arrived In Kingston. General Gomez later went to Honduras, wrhere he had a position netting him $300 a month, when, the latest revolution broke out. This he Immediately resigned, offered his services" to the Cubans and forthwith was made commander In chief of the Cuban forces." Senor Palma and every Cuban In the embassy, and there were many, declared with great emphasis that all the patriots had the mot Implicit confidence in General Gomez. Embassador Palma received advices to-day that General Gomez and General Maceo began the work of forming a junction with the view of invading the western part of the Island, seven days ago. and that It Is probable they are now togther, as Maceo was within two days' march of Gomez's camp.
