At 9 the business of the day begins First comes n half hour's practice pulling on weights ta strengthen his wrists. Then ho punches the bag for a. while. There's no rest for him between 9 and 12 ; ho simply changes from ono exercise to another. He fights about three or four rounds with each man and you bet he docs not rest till he- gcts through with them , cither. "After that I take charge of him and glvo him a good rub down with coarse towels. ] do all that work myself. I then glvo him n good salt water bath and alcohol rub. lleforo eating his lunch ho rusts by walking nroutu the training quarters , reaaing or eomcthlng of that sort , but rarely lies down except when wo want to sweat him. "At lunch he cats rare beef nnd vegetables His big meal Is served nt 6 o'clock , when he can have nil the meats , vegetables nm fruit ho wants , with a bottle of wlno to tb | off on. Ho Is not a hearty eater , BO I let him have as much as he- wants of n certain kind of food , but no pastries , bread or sweets At 2 o'clock I bundle him up In sweaters ma heavy clothes nnd ho begins his road exercise This means that he runs and walks from fifteen to eighteen miles. "Of course ho comes back to me dripping wet and ready for another rub-down niu bath. After a short rest he Is ready for n game of hand ball , which lasts an hour or two and puts him In good trim for another boxing bout. This time he boxes about nine rounds nnd after that and his bath ho can do as he pleases , for the day's work U ended But promptly at 10 o'clock I put him to bed and ho sleeps like a baby , too. CONFIDENT OF WINNING. "As for the coming fight , ho can't help winning , for ho Is In better condition than ho has ever been. Fltzslmmons Is a good mail and a hard hitter , but ho can't stand up against Jim. Why , Jim will worry the life out of him. Fltz has n right hnnd punch which would do damage If it got there , but It won't , and , mark my words , Jim will get off without being punished. You know Corbett Is cool as a. cucumber and never loses his head , while Fltzslmmons Is Just the opposite. "The- light may last ten rounds , but I don't think so. In about the third or fourth round Jim will tantalize the life out of that long Australian , for If Fltzslmmons don't win then ho will go all to pieces and fight wildly. What do I consider Corbett's best blow ? Well , that's hard to say. He has a right body punch that Is a corker , but his left hand hook would knock down a horso. " Last night a delegation consisting of half a dozen citizens of Empire came Into town and offered Julian handsome Inducements to rent the training quarters In that neighbor hood. Ho refused , however , to break his agreement with Cook. The little manager had a disagreeable experience during the afternoon. About 4 o'clock he took a sleigh and drove out In a blinding storm to the ranch. Ho started for homo at dusk , lost his way In the sago bush , and was com pelled to get out and hunt for the road on foot. While ho was t-oarciilns In the dark for signs of a track his horse bolted with the sleigh and ran over a mile , finally pullIng - Ing up In front of the Nevada penitentiary with the vehicle pretty noiicly smashed : o pieces. It took Julian about three hours to walk back home. Tlio plans for the ampaitheatcr have been accepted , a San Francisco architect carryIng - Ing off the prize. The building will bo different in appearance from any structure used for the same purpose. In shape It Is to bo a perfect octagon. The ring will occupy a central square and In a parallel square outsldo of it will bo the $40 box seats and press stands. Converging from all sides of the walls to the edge of this outside square will run twelve large sec tions rising gradually In height to the sides of the enclosure and giving the whole In terior somewhat the effect of a coliseum. Eaoh of these sections will hold 2.000 people , the square circling tho-j'lng having a scat- Ing accommodation for 4,000 more. The ring Is to be pitched at a height of five feet and the seats for the accommodation of mem bers of the press will be placed directly under It. The sun came out today , but the weather Is still cold. Work on Corbett's training quarters at Shaw's Springs Is progressing rapidly and ho will probably go out there tomorrow. Today Corbett put In some time at the opera house boxing , wrestling , etc. He says he feels no ill effects so far as a result of exercising In the rarefied atmos phere at this elevation. Work has not yet been commenced on the amphitheater , but there will bo plenty of time , ns the cdlllco Is to he merely a tem porary one and a largo force of men can rush It up in a few days. It was stated today that there will bo 17,000 seats In the building and that the fight can bo seen from any one of them. Now that Corbett is here and has been sized up more or less favorably , the arrival of his rival. Rob Fltzslmmons , Is anxiously awaited. The Now Zealunder will probably not tarry long In Carson , as his establish ment at Cook's Rancli will bo all ready for him by the tlmo hu arrives here. So far Corbett seems to bo the favorite of the ex perts and others who have come hero a month ahead of time and nro awaiting Im patiently for the 17th of March , but Fltz slmmons will undoubtedly liavo plenty of admirers In his train. Governor Sadler and a number of other state ofllclals watched Corbclt at his work In the opera house this afternoon. Jim made a good Impression with the governor , who was not slow to express himself to Hint effect. Altogether , the champion put In about an hour and forty minutes today , taking but ono short rest. When the men wnro changing , that they might cot n little rest , Jim would run and prance about , that ho might not get a moment of doing nothing in which to got wind , It seemed that Cor bett Is already acclimated so far as ho or his trainers can see. A lot of newspaper men arrived hero to day and the telegraph offlco here ! nearly swamped tonight , as < the storm has prevented 1ho bringing In of new wires , Julian was down to Cook's grove again today to put the finishing touches on the place Fltzslmmons Is to occupy and reports everything there In good order and all rrady for the Cornlshman , who is expected In ar- rlvtt hero tomorrow. The contract for the lumber to build the pavilion will be let tomorrow and work will then begin at onco. Over , ' 100,000 feet of lumber will he used In Us construction.

Stuart came t > to New York early In December of tha year with articles signed by Fltislmmons t fight Corbstt , as well as a verbal contract t fight Mflher. When the Articles were pro scnted to Corbett , ho refused to sign them hut said In the presence of witnesses nt th St. James hotel that ho would fight the winner nor of the Fllrslmmons-Maher battle.

Vondlg claims that Stunrt failed to correspond with him and later on. the vltascopo com pany was organized with Vendlg holding If per cent of Its capital. W. II. Wheeloek who was Stuart's secretary , called on Vcndlg for funds and Vendlg says ho advanced him $1,366.50 In accordance with an arrangement which Vendlg mndo with Stuart. While the Dallas promoter was hunting for a place where the fight could bo broughl to an Issue Vendlg claims thnt ho rccolvei' letters from Stuart Informing him of his progress and thnt later , when they met Stuart produced papers which showed thai It would take $10,000 to insure Hie bringing off of the contest.

From thai tlmo on Vcndlg assorts that Stuart made several engagements to meet him , but broke them all. A few days ago Vendlg received a telegram from Stuart , dated Carson City , which said that Stuart was willing to give Vendlg pooling Interests on the event , bul nothing more.

"Tho exact objects for which I came over hero have been largely misstated by the press of all countries and their very nature made Impossible any premature discussion which could only have thwarted the whole object of my trip. I am therefore unable to contradict them or hsuo a statement on the subject. I am satisfied to abide by the result 'when all will 'be ' known.

I have not seen many bl- metalllsts and could not glvo the time to accept thcln hospitalities , as to do so would bo simply swinging around the circle and the passing of resolutions which have been passed for years. The gold men were these I was after , and I must say they received mn with every apparent dcslro to assist my plans , so far as they could. "I was recolvod by Prince Hohe'nloho with the utmost kindness nnd attention , I am afraid , from the statements of the North Gorman Gazette yesterday ( which , referring to the far-reaching bimetallic conclusions some newspapers attached to the visit , de clared that the senator's audience was purely ono of courtesy ) , that some ardent sllver- Ito has bacn talking , nut I saw none of them In Derlln , and the statements to which Ihe North German Gazette refers were not Inspired by mo or by my acts.

The newspapers of this city reflect the bitter resentment felt bjr Emperor William at the rejection by the marquis of Salisbury of his majesty's personal proposal to coerce Greece by a Joint blockade of the Piraeus , thu port of Athens , by the fleets of the powers In order to check the warlike demonstrations of Greece. The em peror's proposal caused great Interest In diplomatic circles and It Is generally as sumed that ho will not oppose the Greek pretensions In rcgnrdi to Crete , owing to his sister , Sophia , being the wife of Iho duke of Sparta , the crown prlnco of Greece. Hut. It appears that there has long been an ab solute estrangement between the emperor and his sister , arising from old-time quarrels , and his majesty , In addition , never has been overfrlendly to the royal family of Greece. In diplomatic circles It Is surmised that Emperor William's dignity was injured In. some manner , probably by the firm attitude f \ assumed by Greece In the face of the ro- " ' % | monstrances of the powers and of Germany , and hence the extreme proposal to blockade the Piraeus , which was urged by his majesty with unusual vehemence through the am bassadors hero , upon the European cabinets. The marquis of , Salisbury , without any hesitation , promptly declined the euiperor'ii proposition , saying that public opinion In England would never acquiesce In such a policy. The National Zeltung makes direct charges against the llrltlsh of attempting to disturb the peace of Europe and says : "Tho Immediate future will show whether the agreement of the powers will be disturbed by a manifestation of separate British In terests , which promises to rutso the voll hitherto shrouding the origin of the extremely - tremoly strange Greek adventure. From tha outset wo have been of the opinion that It was not so much to attack Turkey as to strike a blow at European peace. " AUK llISLOlHil'M ) IIY THIS ( JHKKICS.
