NEW YOIUC , Dec. C. A sensation has
been caused In sporting circles by tlio report
that Champion Corbett will soon he called
before tlio Lcxow committee to toll what ho
knows about nn attempted $7,000 blackmail
several .years ago. Cornell's manager , IJIlly
Drady , It Is said , also knows nil nbout It.
When Charlie Mitchell came to tills coun
try In 1891. n meeting took place between
Corbett and Mitchell In the Clipper oHlce In
1892. After much discussion It was mutually
agreed that for the gate receipts the men
should meet In n limited number of rounds
In Madison Square garden. Hrndy hnd ar
ranged with Mitchell to secure the garden
for the specified date , nnd actually put
down n. deposit for this purpose of $1,000.
Oorbett figured on a J22l,00 house , but It
Is alleged that representative ) ! ) of the police
demanded a third nf the net receipts nnd
would Insist upon putting men nn the ttirn-
Btllcs and In the pay boxes. The proposi
tion almost winded the pugilists , partlcu
Jarly the. Kngllsh contingent. They said
the simple Kngllsh of the thing was a $7,000
or $ SOW blackmail and they declined to
deal with the highwaymen. The day set
for1 the match was Washington's birthday ,
February 22 , and upon Its expiring tlie
signed articles were destroyed. Corbett
nnd Mitchell never faced each other In
competition In Mudlson Square garden ,
though formally matched and scheduled to
do sa on the date mentioned.
It Is said that the garden , when engaged
for any boxing engagement , Is a. prolific
money maker , and Urady will , It Is more
than Intimated , be questioned ns to how
much he has put up In cold cash In return
for permits for his llstlc shows In this city

NEW YORK , Dec. C. The .board of rc-
vlow of the American Trotting association
took up today the request of the Detroit
Driving club for'the maintenance' of'the
suspension of M. L. Hare of Indiana , ant
the horse , draydon , for the nonpayment o
entry money In the $10,000 stake In the July
1833 , meeting of the Detroit club. , The hear
ing was continued to allow Hare an op
portunlty to appear before the board.
The temporary reinstatement of C. II
Nelson was made permanent. Nelson's dllll
culty grew out of the Nelson-Alcyon $10,00' '
Bullion race , trotted at Ueacon 1'ark , Hos
ton. In ISM. He was found guilty of havlnt ,
had his horse Nelson pulled. The verdlc
was rendered on his own confession. George
llobcnH , who was Implicated In the cate ,
also made application for reinstatement , bu '
his request was refused.
Suspensions or expulsions were revoked In
the cases of H. C. Potter , Mlddlebury , Vt.
Al Uussel , Fen du Lac , Wls. , and J. A
Lylnan , lllnghampton , N. Y. The board
refused to reopen the case uf Uriah liitze
and Joseph McDaniels of Lancaster , 1'a.
accused of ringing.
It was ordered that Harry Adams o
Youngstown , O. , be suspended fur chnnglpt ,
the name of Chatham Hey , pacer , to Uiowi
Dick. The suspension was declared fffectua
until the recording fee Is collected und tin
unlawful winnings are returned to the ns
Boclntlon. C. A. I'usey of Htchmoml , Va.
was almost suspended with similar ; ire
visions for having changed the name o
the stallion Fear Not to Feailess.
The Junction City Driving 1'urlc and Fnl
association of Osden. Utah , and all It
ofllcers were ordered suspended for col
looting entry nnd other fees and falling to
account for these moneys to the Nntlona
board. , i

The driving club maintains that If ine tina
Installment on a nomination if not made I
has the privilege to retain the uneninpletei
payments nnd to sell the irlvllegc to an
other bidder. No decision wan reached.
The Fleet wood-Mom oe Salisbury case \
taken up , but not decided. President Me
Mlllnn , of the driving club said he had a
letter from Salisbury admitting all the
facts , Intended to be proved by the club ,
but stating he had committed no Intentional
wrong , and If Me had erred , It was In as
suming too much. The club therefore be-
Epoke leniency In the case.
Dr. C. A. Oarmlehael 3f Hprlmjflo.d Maf ? . ,
suspended for foul driving at Mystic
Park .last season , was reinstated.
The board adopted a resolution ac
quiescing In the request of the American
consul nt Herne to Investigate the charges
against II. T. Kneebs , arrested In Germany
abount eight months ago for ringing In a
mare known us Bethel , which It la alleged
is Mill In Iowa.

CHICAGO , Dec. B. Schaeffer met defeat

billiards tonight and the bills rolled for him
as well ns hecould wish. Schacfter had

A RELIABLE PILE CURE.
The Pyramid Plla Cure Is the safest and
surest pile euro on the market , because It
contains no mineral poisons nor cplum nor
cocaine , but can be used with absolute safety
; and certainty of cure.
Many physicians ore now using the Pyra
mid Pile Cure In place of surgical operations
being painless , convenient to use , and the
patient can attend to his dally occupation
while the cure li being made , as It Is used
at night and no additional treatment Is neces
sary.
sary.Dr.
Dr. Wharton says the Pyramid Pile Cure
will prove a blessing to mankind , when It Is
remembered that heretofore a surgical opera
tion was considered the only euro with all
Its danger to life , Intense pain and an ex
pense of from ten to ono hundred dollars , to
say nothing ot the possible return of the
trouble. The Pyramid Pile Cure costs but
one dollar at any drug store and does the
work quickly and safely. If your druggist
hasn't It In stock ask him to get It for you
from his wholesaler.

FOR ARBITRATION OF STRIKES
Demonstrations Llko Debs' to Be Officially
Avoided in tin Future ,
CARROLL D , WRIGHT DLVZLOPING A PLAN
Commissioner or Labor Will Hold n Con
ference with Medium and Other Mem
bers of tlio llousrt Interested
"
In the bubjcvt. '
WASHINGTON , Dec. G. Labor Commh-
slonor Wright will have a conference to
morrow with Chairman McClann of the house
committee on labor , Representative Springer ,
author of the pending arbitration bill , and
Heprescntatlvo Krdman , who wrote the favor
able report on the bill.
They will go over the question of arbitra
tion of strikes with a view to outlining a
program for Immediate -aptlon In congress.
Mr. Wright's experience In the presidential
commission which recently Investigated the
Pullman strike Is depended upon to give
practical form to the plan ot national arbitra
tion. It has heretofore been urged theoret
ically , but the report of the commission ,
based on Inquiry and experience , recom
mends such federal arbitration as , the surest
remedy against labor agitations and strikes.
It had been hoped that President Cleveland
would , In his message , give specific approval
to the plan of arbitration recommended by
the strike commission , but he confined him
self to an approval of the work of the com
mission.
Chairman McGann says of the prospects
of passing an arbitration bill this season :
"I think such a bill will go through ( ho
senate and house without difficulty. There
seems to bo a general feeling without refer-
encii to party .as to the opportuneness of
such a measure. Under ordinary circum
stances It would bo difficult to get through
such an Important bill at a short session ,
but the feeling Is so ripe for action that It Is
expected to pass both houses. The Springer
"
bill now reported "is almost Identical with
the recommendations of the presidential
strike commission.
"Mr Wright will bo asked for suggestions
to perfect the bill and then there will be a
united effort to secure speedy action on the
subject. "
Briefly , the bill provides for the appoint
incut of a permanent board ot arbitration ,
consisting ot thrco persons , one ot whom
may , In the discretion ot the president , be
the commissioner of labor for the time being.
The term of their office Is fixed at six years
and their salaries at $5,000 a year , and their
appointment shall be made by the president ,
by and with the ndvlco and consent of the
senate. The arbitration Is secured on the
petition ot ono ot tlie parties to a controversy
and when neither party asks for It there Is
no compulsory arbitration , but on the ap
plication of a state legislature the president
may tender the offices of the national com
mission. The power of the commission to
settle strikes Is defined In the bill as follows :
"Tho said national board of arbitration shall
have power , when In their discretion the
public Interests are at stake , to Investigate
the causes of all controversies and disputes
between employers and their employes In , the
United States as they may occur ard the
conditions accompanying them and the best
means of their adjustment , whether such
controversies and disputes are submitted for
arbitration or not , and to report thereon to
the president who shall from time to 'time
transmit such reports to congress. Said
board shall have power to settle and adjust
by conciliation all such disputes and con
troversies as It may bo possible to do so. "
It Is pointed out that the moral effect of a
settlement proposed by the national commis
sion would be sufficient to niako It effective
and that this would be better than drastic
measures to compel acceptance. >

Ono Concern tlmt Win l.oft Out of tlip
Combine tlltvn A \ rujtlio Hoc-rot n.
DKNVKU. Dec. G. L. Smith , president of
the Union Smelting company , which Ims
large works nt hcnilvlllc , confirms the re
port that n smelter combine has been formed ,
The Union smelter 'is not In the combine ,
and Mr , Smith says It has been boycotted
by the trust.
"Wo had an Invitation to Join , " said Mr.
Smith , "but bccaueo wo did not go n round
begging for terms the trust Is going to
discipline us a little. I think we can stand
It. If necessary wo will put In our o\yn
samplers where wo need them , and we can
always get the ore wo need. I do not know
who the ottlccrs of the combine nro , but
they meet In the olllcn of the Philadelphia
Hollnlng' company. The clearing house
feature of the scheme Is n good one , and If
that was all there was to It we would bo
In favor of It. "
"What Is the clearing house feature ?
"Why , each smelter registers all of Its
contracts for ere In the trust clearing house.
The ores are delivered to the clearing house
and paid for and are distributed to the
different smelters In such a way that each
gets Its share of the ore , but the classes
of ore are so distributed that the smelters
are all supplied with the kinds of ores they
need the most , so no smelter has to shut
down for want of a certain kind of ore.
Under the old plan , If n smelter ran short
of a fluxing ore , for Instance , It would have
to go Into the market and buy It and often
would bo compelled to pay n fancy price or
shut down and the smelter would lose money
In the operation. The clearing house plan
distributes the different classes evenly. "
"Has the trust attempted to raise rates ? "
"No , It has not gene that far yet , but
that Is the main reason for the combine.
It must first get the smelters In. The
Utah smelters arc out yet and we are the
only one of any account In this state that Is
out. Just as soon " , as they can get things
fixed the plan Is to" raise the rates. "

A healthy glow to the

sleeping poorly. Often she is troubled with
backache , or a tender spine , with a bearing-
down weight in the abdomen , or at periods
she may be irregular , or suffer extreme paiu
from functional derangements.
Dr. Pierce , chief consulting physician to
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute , of
Buffalo , N. Y. , in his long and active experi
ence , met many cases of this kind , for which
he used a prescription whicli was found to
cure such difficulties permanently in ninety-
eight per cent , of all cases. Having proven
so successful , Dr. Pierce put his " Favorite
Prescription " on the market , and it is to-day
sold more largely than any other medicine
for the ills of woman.
For all functional derangements , displace-
merits , tilceration , inflammation , and the
catarrhal drain from the lining membranes
of the special internal organs of women , Dr.
Tierce's Favorite Prescription reaches the
origin of the trouble , and corrects it.

That's n mystery. Take ( Payne ) nnd work out the two
missing words. Cut it out and bring it to the Nebraska , stat
ing your height , weight and appetite , whether married or
willing to be , and in return the first successful answer will
receive first prize , ' * a guess on how soon the canal will be
built. " Each answer must be accompanied by clcvcnteen
cents worth of Columbian stamps.
Little folks' clothes are nearly everywhere sold on the
same ridiculous guessing plan. Guess it is worth so much
more , because the patterns ore desirable , or perhaps Mrs. So
nnd So's boy wears one of 'em , and the demand might in
crease.
We don't trouble ourselves about what others do , but
what wo do. No guessing here. Small boys' suits arc
here well represented. Large collection of patterns and
styles , perhaps not the prettiest In the land , according to
some queer tastes , but they're the best from the best houses
in the country. Can't do any better unless we could com.
mnnicatc with planet Mars.
There is uo guess work about our prices either the only
guessing we are at is how many new patrons each suit will
make. Onr prices * are a motto , "cheaper bought cheaper
sold. "
