Asnuiir PAIIK , N. Y. , July 20. There ore
probably few , if any , persons besides these
that have really been through the mill Ihut
realize how much self-denial nnd hard work
It ta'kcs to thoroughly prepare a man for n
big pilzo fight. Sullivan Is training lo fight
Coruott. Too uninitiated road that much ,
and a hazy vision of u man in loose flt'/ing
flannels , living on the best of everything and
trying to pass the hot summer days ns com
fortably and as easily as possible lloats
through their minds.
Trailing is looked upon by thoio who have
not trained themselves or como in actual con
tact with u man preparing himself for a feat
of strength and endurance' as an easy , rollickIng -
Ing time nt a country or seaside resort. A
fair sample of what a man out of training
will and laally has to do to fit himself for n
great battle Is Iho dully routine work that
Sullivan Is doing , so as to be in good condi
tion when bo meets Corbott for the heavy
weight championship of the world and $40-
000 ut the Olympic club , Now York , on Sep
tember 7.
Sullivan weighed , when ho began training ,
241) ) pounds. Ho has bcon in training about
two weeks , und by shear hard work ho has
reduced his weight to219j. pounds , at which
( Inure bo lipped the beam yesterday.
A largo number of men sporting mon and
good judges of physical culture were of the
opinion that Sullivan could not train again.
Ho had bcon living a life of indulgence and
case too long ever to be able to got into con
dition again. Sullivan himself always in
sisted that ho could train , und bo certainly
knew what ho was talking about that is ,
judging from the shape the big fellow Is in
now.
now.Tho training place selected by Cbarlio
Johnston and Phil Casey for Sullivan is an
ideal ono In many respects. The uir at Bay
Head , or Good Ground , as it is called by the
natives , is pure und bracing.
Canoe Pluco Inn , in which Sullivan and bU
trainers live , is within a stone's throw of
ShlnnoLock bay and only a few yards from
tbeQrcat Poconlo bay. It is a delightful
place to look ut. The inn itself nestles In a
bimill valley nnd Is surrounded by largo elm
It cos that furnish abundant shade.
The peeking nt the inn is done by an old
woman who broolts no inturforpiiro. .Neither
tbb pugilists nor 'he Irninors dnio growl nt
the way in which good raw material is
spoiled. If the walttcssas make a complaint
the cook , armed with n billet of wood , set
tles the argument by deadlier ull intruders
out of thu kitchen. If the culinary depart
ment was belter it would bo an ideal ptaco
to train In.
Sullivan trains dlfTcicntly from most pugil
ists. Ho is not in love with the burning bent
of midday , and although heat doesn't Lconi
to affect him , ho does bis most important
road work early in the morning.
Yesterday bo got up ut5W. : ! As soon as
bo was nwako bis trainers wcro made uwaro
of Iho fact. He begun to sing snatches of
songs iu bis powerful baritone voice , nnd hud
Ashton , Morgan nnu his Japaupbo valet iu a
state of panic before ho hud been nwuko flvo
minutes. Hix first performance was to take
dumb-bull exorcises with very fight dumb
bells. Then bo was rubbed wi h u drv towel'
and dressed for the road. Hu were u * heavy
sweater end co-irso-lcnitlod woolen tights und
Block.tigs eVer heavy undciclothing.
In addition to the underclotning bo worn a
piece of thick flannel over hia.stomach. Win
a pair ot old walking shoes and a jaunty
btock ) tweed cup on his sunburnt .face , and
. singing at thu top of bis voice , ho started out
to do the main walk of tbo day without a
particle of food In his stomach. Asblou and
Morgan , who were wllh him , teen the pre
caution to have a good ineal before they
started.
Ho loft tbo house at a brisk pace and made
his way up tlio Shinnecock hills , and walked
until Southampton wus in view , when ho
turned his head for home. Ho increased his
pace as bo neured the houso. About two
miles from homo ho stalled to run. Ho kept
upi n Jog trotovorthobouvysandyrondsiight
to the door.
t Blg-and heavy as Sullivan is he Is an ox-
troiucly grateful runner. Hu runs straight
us a dart , nnd'nltboucu Iho road wns rough ,
ana in many plates deep with sand , and was ,
in fact , about us ti.vlug u piece of mound lo
cover as one could well imagine , ho moved
along a smoothly as if ho were on a good pre
pared track.
As soon as ho reached Iho house bo was
taken In churgu b\ Casey , Ashton nnd Mor
gan , stripped und given n salt water shower
bath. Then ho was rubood until ho was
thoroughly dry und placed between blankets
( or a few minutes.
Anolber rub down nnd the champion , with
face and skin as pink ns baby's , none the
worse for his ton-mile jaunt , wus eager foi
breakfast. Huatoabeartyino.il of broiled
btuetlsb. steak and toast , and a cup of Iced
tea , and Sullivan , as full ot fun as a big boy ,
sat ou tbo piazza , guyed his trainers and road
the papers until 11 o'clock. Then ho went to
the gymnasium. Ho bo an by punching the
bag. Ho wonted hard and fust at this work
for thirty minutes without any lot up. Ho
stood up like u stone wall and fought the bag
like ho would a foo.
Ho Jabbed it with u straight loft again and
again , und when the bag became too familiar
bo swung bis deadly light on It und diovo It
against Iho colling until it bounded like a
discharge of n cannon. Ho scorned to move
ills head or duck from the ball and lilt it
whenever it came within teach of him.
Straight loft , an occasional left-hand uppercut -
cut , und su liming right-hand blows wcro
Iho only kind of punching practice ho In
dulged In.
At tbo conclusion of tbo thirty-mlnuto
round ho started Iu to throw und catch u
big leather bull , which is about thu size o !
an ordinary football nnd weighs live and a
half pounds. He pitched und losscd this
bull to Ashton until ho was tired , nnd Ihei
were Morgan out iu the same oxorMso. The
ball ho uses for slieuglbt'iilng bis wrists
His next work was skipping the rone. It
looked reully comical lo see ibis giant among
men luke un ordinary skinning rene , cell Iho
ends around Ills wiiuu , nnu uklp like u child
It was pluy to begin with , but u bacmuo a
grand feut of onduianco before he finished ,
Ho aklpucd the ronu without u break or a
falter V51 times. 13 } constant practice ho
bus reduced skipping lo uscionco. Ho eliips
easily and grucafully , end , hard und Irving
work that it Is , ho seems as if he could keej
on indefinitely.
This work completed Ibo n'orning sessioi
in the gvmnasiuin. As noon w > it wns over
ho put on un additional .sweater and startec
for the bathing ground about n mile away on
the Uroat Pfconlo bay. Thu road was n
rough ono. It luy tluough fields , orchards
and scrub pine , and owing to the deep loose
sand on tbo pulh It was n trying mlla lo run
Ho then undiessed mid took a header iulo
the water and swum out to son.
Ho stayed In tbo water about nn Dour , Ho
wan rubbed down r.fter ho came out , drcsnoi
in dry clothing and then went back to thu
bouse by boat through the canal , which will
keen connect Uhlnnecock nnd Poconlc bays.
A honrly meal of roasi mutton , potatoes IUH
broad and some Iced lea was tlu'ii consumed.
The champion then wont to the piazza
where he contrived lo lay atlll for nearly
bait an hour/ Then ho went out on the lawi
ud Dia.vodLbaso bull. Hu pitched aim buttoi
files" for upwards of un hour , and onl/
topped when asked to do so by Phil Casey
Fully iioO persons vultod Canoe Plaoa Int

came In yachts. There were Judos ant
dudoloti , young women and old women , and
entire families , all eager to calpb a gllmp o
of Iho only John L. The place wiu crowded
and every place of vnnlago occupied.
As soon us ho tired ofpunehlng the bag the
turned his attention to tbo big bull , Ho
worked fully thirty minutes with this uui

the program gave immensemitufuctlou to

The Las Veens , N. M. . StocK Grower says :
"Otnnha is growing remarkably fust as n
cattle cantor. All tlio largo packers have
made extensive additions to tlioir plants in
the last year , and fuilhor Improvements the
papers announce to be on the tapis. It is
on-j of the beit feeder markets in the coun

is destined to bo an important factor in the
future cattle trade ot Toxn . These who
have canncis to market should remember
that South Omaha wants 100.000. "
The Chicago stock Journals recognize in
South Omaha n formidable rival nnd are
honest enough to confess It , The Daily

A majority of the si.loonheepers have
banded together nnd will make every effort
possible to escape the payment of the 5200
occupation tax. A petition has boon in cir
culation aim will bo presented to
the council at loniirht'a session. The
petitioners nsk that the amount of the
tnv bo reduced from ? 200 to S50. The mem
bers of the council say tuoy will simply lay
the petition upon the table nnd that the $200
tux goes. If the saloon men fall in having
the tax reduced they auy they will carry the
matter into court and believe they can
knock out too tax on technical grounds. An
Omaha attorney has boon circulating among
them during the past weolt and ho says : that
on technical grounds tno courts will declare
the levying of the lax illegal.
4n ordinance has been drawn nnd will
come before tonight's council
meeting , pro
viding that all saloons must close their Qoors
at midnight. That has bcon the general hour
of closing heretofore , but there bus been no
ordinance compelling Uiom to close at that
time. It Is also s uid , nna by individuals who
know , that if the saloon men tnko a deter
mined stand against paving the occupation
tax , they \\lll bo compelled to close their
doors on Sunday , which will mean the loss
ot-a very prolitablo day's receipts.

The storm of yesterday afternoon was ono

on thosttcots hastily sought shelter , while

No doubt many thought that the amount of
rainfall was something awful , but the actual
pccipitation was pnly .31 inch.
In ono scnso tho'storm was purely jocal as
regards winds. At Sioux City the precipita

TRAINED BANK RECEIVERS
How the Nntionnl Banking System Gould
Bo Improved.
MANY REASONS FOR QUICK WORK
Sonio nC the IHnifultlcs .Surrounding tlio

litloul tiilluunco Ocranldiiolly Intor-
Icrcs In iliu
, D. n. , July 31 , [ Special to
Tun HEK.J "Wo should hnvo n small corns
of trained batnc rccelvnru , " snld ono of thn
oldest and most skillful officers In the ofUeu
of the comptroller of the currency , recently , In
tnllilng uf the dinicullics surioundtug the so-
locllon of rccelynrs tor broken Nnllonnl
banks , "It was only the other day , " con
tinued tlio official , "that wo had n taste of
ttio troubiCs which surround the selection of
n receiver , whou it came to cheese
ono for the Vlnccnnos National lit
Indiana. However , thr.ro was loss qulbhlo
over tlml appointment than any wo hnvo had
for some lime. That place pays but $2,000 a
j oar , nnu the receiver is given n clerk or
bookkopor nt ? t > 00 n yoar. It will take pro
bably two yean to close out the affairs of
the bank , nnd every politician In the state
who was out of u job nnd doslred A place at n
couple of thousand nnd had a pull bore In
Washington made nn effort to got the ap
pointment ,
' There was n delay ot nearly two weeks before -
fore the appointment , was made. It was nec
essary to got u man of some otpoiionco in
such work , a man of good judgment nnd one
who would not uo influenced by prlvnto or
other considerations. Of course , it Is not the
policy of the department to select men for
suoh places from the Immediate locality In
which the bank Is located. Well , n good man
was finally found , but not till a dozen or
tnoro had been canvassed. But it was unfor
tunate that there was delay over tlio selection
ui u receiver.
Iti'asoiiH for Quick Work ,
"The very momenta national bank Is found
to bo insolvent It sbould go Into the hands
of a rcecivei , after the shareholders show an
Indisposition to make good tbo losses of the
bank , nnd start out anew with unimpaired
capital , and I will toll you why. Tbo moment
It is discovered that there will have to bo an
assessment of the stockholders in older to
protect the Interest of its depositors the
stockholders who nro not very strong finan
cially or careful of their financial credit
begin to cast about lo avoid the
assessment penalties. If their assess
ment is to be very heavy they
nro likely to put their real estate possessions
out of their hands In order to avoid a process
to compel them to meat tholr assessments.
It Is thorofotu necessary. In order to protect
all stockholders who want to net honestly
nnd all depositors whoso interests should be
protected , that the true condition of n failed
bank be known accurately and quickly \\lieu
its doors are closed.
"Then the ussessmonts can bo made early
if they nro to bo mndont all. If wo had a
llttlo corps of export receivers In the office
here wo could send ono of them out to a bank
as soon as the examiner loportod the bank in
a failed condition.
All Wontil Ito Protected.
"Tho expert receiver could make a careful
examination mid teport , und if an assess
ment was necessary wo could make It before
there was any special public notice made of
tlio oink's condition , nnd no opportunity
would bo aftordod stockholders to put their
real eslato or oilier proper tv beyond tbo
reach of the law. This done , n receiver
could bo appointed , as now , and nil interests
would bo best subserved.
" \Vlien the big National bank failures
recently came in Philadelphia und Boston ,
thoio was a iogulur tumble fight for the ro-
coiversbips , the politicians ana tnoso per
sonally" interested in th'o" banks' assets taking
a band. There was ono crowd desiring the
positions for the salary In them , and they
offered political influence to support them
In their efforts ; nnd then thcru was another
crowd In each city who exerted
political influence to control the receiver
ships for personal oids. Between the
two factions , both wltn selfish motives in
view , the matter of selecting receivers was
deferred so long that any dishonest stock
holder could have put beyond the roach of the
law any quantity of property. You know It
is legal to transfer leal estate from the hands
of a bank shareholder the day before the
assessment IB made , if no uotico is made of
the assessment. It is dlitcrcnt from a se
curity matter on n note or bond and tboro
nro not many ordinary stockhnldois who will
not avail themselves of the opportunity to
avoid the effect of a heavy loss assessment.
couiii i ; < isiiy iiu iniiiij ; | ! ( i.
"Those expert rocolvois need not number
ever half n ofo/en , and when not engaged in
taking temporary control of broken banks
they can bo making oxnminaUons of banks
In any part of tbo country. If I woio comp
troller of the currenov I would urco this mut
ter upon congress at once.
"Another thing i would ask for , nnd that
is n larger force ) ' . examiners. And I would
stop Ibis thing of having logulnr examina
tions by examinois appointed from the
state whore tbo examinations nro mndo.
They are a furco. I would shift
the examiners about from ono section to
another , and hove now men each time , so far
us possiolo. At loust , I would make the
changes so frequent tbnt tbo banker would
never know who was coming In upon him , or
when. Do you know that the national bank
ing system is a matter of millions of dollars
of profit to the government every year , and
yet wo have not more than half enough ex-
aminoisl There is no o\cnso for It. All of
the revenue from the banks should bo paid
out in protecting depositors und stockholders -
holders , If necessary. There sbould bo a 10-
vision of tlio processes all mound. Tlio
sysiom Is nearly perfect , but can be Improved
in execution. "

been no material change In Iho attitude of
the respective sides in the house with rcgatd
to the World's ' fair appropriation , and when
that body moots tomorrow it in all
probability will bo with the stale of
affairs unchanged from what It "was when ad
journment was taken on Satin day. Neither
nldo has been doing very active work today ,
but each has contented itself with reviewing
what has nhuuiiy been accomplished and
discussing the prospect ot an early termina

The members of the house opposed In the
appropriation have boon discussing in an in
formal way the bovoral propositions looking
to u compromise of the dilllcultloj that have
already been suggested , and It may bo that
one of them will take formal shape before
the pending controversy U much older.
These propositions include ono postponing
notion on the appropriation until u
fixed day In December , ono , making a loan
of $5.000,030 to bo regarded as n
first lion on ibo receipts of tlio fair and al
lowing tbo fair management to provldo suffi

look with favor on uny of the.io
propositions and will not make any
pledees concornlnc tholr future action ollur
man to intlmnto very strongly thut iboy will
take tbo appropriation direct or nothing.
They wil ) uot listen at this time to a proposi
tion to postpone notion on tlio appropriation ,
Insisting that tlio house bus already loccrdod

therefore , see nn reason why tbo matter
should bo delayed ,

In'tlio house tomorrow Heorosontatlvo Iiol-

Mr. llolnmn onjs ho would not ngtoo to nn
