NEW YORK POLtCETRIED TO WORKCORGETT Wanted a Holing Inhibition Two Ycnrs ARO In Mndlson Siinuro ( liirdcn , but tie ! Odlci-r * Insisted on it Third of the Ittcclpts. 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 AVOUIC OF Till : HO.lltU OF JIUVIIWH , C.

He was found guilty of havlnt , had his horse Nelson pulled. The verdlc was rendered on his own confession.

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.

' 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. > Cubic Kopo Wng Hurtling' .

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. " Tnko Wittclics mill Jewelry. TILDEN , Neb. , Dec. 6. ( Special Tele gram. ) Uurglars entered McDonald Htos.

A reward Is offered for capture air and beautiful the woman who keeps at n distance the com plexion bcntttificrs , paints and powders , whichsoon ruin the face. A healthy glow to the skin , a face without wrinkles , and sparkling eyes , will be yours if you ( I keep tbc system and the special internal organs in good condition. The young girl , or wo man , often grows pale , wrinkled and thin , eats little , everytlntijr wearies her , she com plains of herself as aching- and sore and as 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. Mrs. MARY CRIM , of Fiaakfott , Fmnklin Co. , III. , writes : "A few years ago I took cold , which resulted in female trouble , and affected iqy whple system.

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.
