Uuced his weight to 115 pounds In ring cos

his wind nnd does about live miles , In tha
morning and plnys bull in the ovot.lng. Ills
tr.ilning Is not of n severe nature , as ho Is
very tioar or quite In condition , Ulxon is
quartered in n comfortable cottage near the
bo.ich.and has a gymnasium rigged up In the
house. The road Is perfectly smooth , nnd
the colored man , attondo'l ' by his tr.ilnor ,
spurts over the ground In u lively styla.
When the run U over nnd utter being rubbed
down Dlxon punches the bag In a vigorous
fashion for n hour. Ho expressed himself as
satisfied with the progress of his training
mid Is modestly conlldent of success Hi the
coming light tno greatest of his life.
O'UourKo ' Is very conlldentand considers
the contest lilto llnding so much money. Ills
only fours were about Dixon's treatment
hero bofora tbo fight , knowing the Olympic
club would preserve order during the light.
Kvcrv while man Dlxon has mot In Now
Orleans has assured him of lair play.

Jimmy Carroll , who Is handling ykelly and
who has firm faith In him , bald : "Tbo moro
I sue of htm the more conlldont I am that ho
will bo a winner. Vestcrday 1 had him to
ituo tha dentist to look alter an ulcaratcd
tooth with an abscess forming around It. Hu
took moro punishment and stood it gamer
than any man I over saw. Hu la at welcht
mid can Unlit oaslly at 114 pounds. I spar
with him uud do not lot up on him. 1 do this
in order to bnvo him used to good stilt
punching. I use him as roughly n * If wo
were In an actual combat. 1 nm colng to
kcop him up against die man nnd have htm
punched nnd give back the same. In this
way when ho fnccs a lltllo man llito Dlxon
ho will IIrid it easier work. Ho Is well up In
ring tactics. "
Nelson and Cross look upon McAulHTo its a
sure winner , nnd both soy that the champion
never trained as earnestly uud us hard as at
the present.
McAullITu has got down to hard training
nnd is steadily at it from morning till night.
Ton o'clock often tinds him nt the gymnasium
pounding away with all his inlaht nt the
ball , In fact , the night tlmo Is and has been
u favorite hour for nls training. The Idea is
a good oiio ana will familiarize him with
spurring by gaslight and bnvo him used to It
when ho enters the nrenii for his contest.
Ho has but a few pounds to taku off. Ho
* can outrun any man at the quarters and
uftcr u six or ton mile spin cols In fresh and
'
'not In any way winded.
Olyniplc'H llfcolpu Already $4n,000.
Although two full weeks yet remain before
the big lights , the Olympic duo has cleared
more money than Is represented In Its purses.
Konn of the general admission tickets have
been placed on the market.vet. lnitovci-iUOJ (
in boxes and reserved seals for thu Sullivan
oud Corbatt light alone have been sold nnd
$ -0,000 of the same sort of tickets have been
disposed of for the smaller events. The club
1ms received among thu largo number of ap
plications for seals letters from a number of
women asking to bo allowed to scothufichls.
ijomo of Hit-so have the indorsement of prom
inent sporting men , but to all such commu
nications the club has written that it would
'bo impossible to extend cuiirtd-Mes to the

NewYoiiK , Aug. 19. What will bo the
real condition of John L. Sullivan and James
, J. Corbott on September 7 Is tlio question u
multitude of sportsmen are twklng them
selves.
Tnoro are a Inrgo number of the followers
of the pnzo ring who expect to see Iho "big
fellow" in matchless form , whllo others are
inclined to be dubious on that point.
Whllo Phil Casey und others who are
looking lifter his interest stuto without ro
corvo that tbo champion is all right nnd fit
to light the battle of his Ufa there are tbosu
who wink the ether eye and say : "Walt
until the big fellow wets tramping around tbo
ring in these light-weight shoes ho has had
made and bis snrn icel begin to gut In their
work , ami you will 900 what kind of form
Hulllvnihs in. "
John Is displaying a romaruablo amount of
grit , and that will help greatly in gaining his
victory. Sullivan enjoyed a sea bath yostar-
day , thu first he has taken during his train-
JIIKiinisu wno itnuw uuruuii ann nave
watched til in carefully are afraid that bo
will bccomo slain buforo the night ot tbo
light. It U true ihut ho ban kept his weight
well , but ho has also gpt hlnuulf Into line
/arm. und that Is the trouble with Him.
September I would have been tlmo enough
for Jim In have arrived at thu condition mi is
today. Another point that sportsmen look
nt In Corboll's case Is his method of training.
Jlo has adopted und carried through Ihu
"do-as-you-plenso" Ihoory. Ice walor , Ice
cream and p'onl.r ' of other food that men In
training usually eschew has been devoured
by the California ! ! ever hinco ho left for
Asbury Park. This plan U diametrically
opposed loSulllviip's ninthod. Thu men are
us dllTorunt as daylight and dark anyhow , so
the followers of tbo two lundlnc ichools of
jmiMllsrn will have it grunt opportunity to
cet.a line on their loudur * when the two "big
fellows" moot.
I'liins for Cctllni ; .Vwuy.
Sullivan nnd his party will lenvo by special
train over the Delaware , Lnuliawanna it
AVostorn railroad at * > o'clock on the after
noon ot Suptembor 1. They nru expected to
nrrivo In Now Orleans on the Saturday
morning following about 11 o'clock. If Sulli
van's wishes are considered Johnston and
Cusoy will no his main Handlers In the ring

with promptness niul dispatch. The llrst tblut ;
that they illil was to Uuoblt tlio' mayor mid
Ills vetoes out ot the box * . Tlio mayor was
on hund with.tils veto on'tho Henry Loh-
'ninnti frescoing contract , the lull text of
which was published * In 'yostorday's ) ) r.n.
The vote was road and disposed of lu short
order. Then the roll " "was onllod mid Mr.
Howell was the only "man who hbld an opin
ion that apt-cod with the mayor.
Upon the question of the surplus funds ,
ttio mayor handed lu this communication ,
which was referred' ' 'Under the nrrnnijo-
mont as at present existing , the city is re
ceiving from tlio banlcs Inturcst at the rate
of only 2 percent , per annum on the dally
balances. 1 have reason to bollcvo that there
1.4 a considerable amount of the city funds
tli.it could bo made to realize a much larger
rate of Interest ami tnoroby sttvo several
thousand dollars to the city , bv investing
the same in whort-tlmo 'bonds of the
city. Section 102 of the charter
provides that it shall bo the duty
of the mayor and council , by ordinance or
concurrent resolution , whenever they doom
pronorsoto do , to rcqulro that any money
to the credit of any Hpoclr.l fund , on account
of which bonds may have boon Issued , bo in
vested in short tlino bonds of the city or
ether good and safosccurl-lcs. As suggested ,
I bollevo that by carrying out the provisions
of the charter a'lar'Kosum of money , amountIng -
Ing to thousands of dollars , could bo .saved
to the city. I respectfully" surest that this
matter-bo referred to the llnanco committee
for Its careful investigation nnd considera
tion.1'
Stirred U | > the Fight with ISnirnilorlU
The mayor stirred up the old light between
blmsolr and Architect IJoiriidorlT. In this
connection ho wrote llko this : "I respect
fully cull jour attention to the condition of
tlio elevator service In ttio now city hall. Jt
is Important that the elevators , cages and
pumps siould | bo carefully examined und
fully tested before acceptance of tbo samo.
It Is doubtful If the pumps uro of sufllclent
capacity to do the work that will bo requited.
It Is cnrtain that tlio pljio In use with the
elevators Is of Insufficient size and must bo
changed. The plan's for the posts and cages
are so defective us to render n portion of tlio
elevators dangerous. Action should bo taUon
without delay to provide new doors
for the cases , 'mado on an entirely
different plan from'those now in use to prevent -
vent accidents. Other radical changes must
bo made In order trrrcitdur a portion of tno
elevators safe. 'As > now run , a cnild , or even
a grown person ls'luxblo to have a naud or
even an < irm taken 9IT by reason of the ar
rangement of the ) elevators and doors and t'.io
unreasonable lared'spaeos loft in the elevator
doors. " ' >
"In view of thp' many blunders made by
the present architect , I suggest the desira
bility of sbourliiK the services of'a competent
architect to prdparo plans for such chanrros
as may horoalter.bu necessary. Change * not
oulv ' In the elevators , but in ether places
abo'ut the buildingnro absolutely required.
It is a notoribuso fact , of which every
city ofllclal nbout.tlio building is fully aware ,
that the presontsarohltect does not give any
tlmo or attention whatever to the construct
ion and completion of the cltyihall. . I have
no deslro to enghgciln any controversy with
him , nnd do iiot.propoao.so to do. I do pro
pose , hoiyevcr , 9.perform ( , the .duties required
quired of ino under lhu. cuartor "and local
tno attention of yotrr-Uonorublo body to these
glaring dofgfts. aid so far as 1 can possibly

This was referred to the cornniittoo on
publio property uiltl'building's. '
The city englneoianil the Board of Publio
Works reported upon tlio condition of tha
pavemcnt'on the Tenth street viaduct. They
said that -10 percent of tbo blocits bad de
cayed , 0 pur cent oX'thotn were rotten , 10 per
conPhnd rotted to the doptu of three inches
or more , and that ! > 5 per cent hail commenced
to decay. They d'd not think that a coating
of coal tar would bo of much benefit. The
report was lecommittcd for recommenda
tions.

man bo nppointoa to look after the city hall
during the hours that tbo inmates might bo

mont of cemeteries within the city limits.
Ho said that ho thought that the city could
not pass an ordinance alToellng the boundar
ies of Prospect Hill , a * deeded by the Into
IJyron Heed.
President Baldwi.i of the Prospont Illll
Cemetery association wrote that it was not
the intention to enlarge the comoterv , but
simply to ese the property which was origin
ally Intended to go Into tno cemetery. The
sanitary question , he said , was all nonsense.
An ordinance to enlarge was rtot necessary ,
as the cemetery could not bo enlarged with
out using tbo streets.- '
Air. Munro said that It was about tlmo to
settle the i-ravoyard question. I'bo ordi
nance prohibiting burials should bo passed
and if itwasjiot l&gal it could bo tested In
the courts.
Mr. Prince said that it was not his deslro
to injure any person , but ho wanted to respect -
spect the living asvoll as tlio dead.
A number ot uOldavlts from parties living
near the cemetery .were read , showing that
0,000 bodies roiled in Propuut Hill , and that
oii account of such burials the water In the
wells In that locality was impure and unlit
for uso.
All of the papers were referred tu the com-
