seen ho stated that Hob was In fair condition
when Julian left Cnrson.

friends do not like the cry of sickness foim
the Kltzsimmons camp. They arc afr.ild tliat
the Cornlshniftii Is getting ready to ilunk cut
of the match or clue. Is working for ft post
ponement. The California ! ! will r.ot submit
to the latter proposition under my oh cum-
stances. Ho Is timing his training P.O as to
lie ready on March 17. A week's delay might
prove fatal , as Corbctt appreciates that In
that time ho might go stale or ir.iln off an
The thermometer nt 8 o'clock this morning
utocd at 8 degrees below , the coldest wo.itber
known In Carson for several years. The sun
came up bright and warm , however , nnd the
mercury rose to 20 above at noon. Thu snow
IB melting rapidly today anil prospects are
ijood for continued bright weather.
IJob Kltzslmmons commenced work toJay
with a four-round bout with Hlckcy nnd a
Imlf hour's work with Ilocber on the wren-
ling mat. He finished the morning's routine
with bag punching for twenty-five mlnutca.
IIo showed no fntlgue from the work. After
Ills rub down. Kllzslmmonu sunned himself
for an hour. declarliiK that he was In splendid
condition. IIo docs not expect lo do tiny
road work until the strip of ground .1 mile
In length , now being cleared of snow , Is In
good shape. IIo Is also waiting Julian's re
turn from San Kranclsco with ntores.
Jim Corbett carried out his routine work ,
putting In more than an hour at hand ball
with Jils brother Joe , and then took on
"Woods until the latter was exhausted.
Aside frojn a slightly flushed face , Jim
allowed no effects. He stated that he ex
pected big JcffrleH up from San Kranclsco
Boon to hrlp nut Wools : , who has inoro th.ui
he can attend to In standing before Cor-
bc-tt. Oeorgo Orccn Is also expected here
nnd will train at Corbett'a camp. Ho has
fought under the ring title of "Young Cor
bett. "
rorhett Increased his work today , while
Fltzslmmons did very little. After light
work with the bag and a few rounds with
lllckey. Kltz drove to Carson with Uoeber ,
multlcd to the eyes In n great coat to pro
tect himself from the Intense cold. He
made a tour of the stores for 'the ' purpose
of buying tilings needed at camp , followed
by a curious crowd. After two hours' shop
ping ho drove back to Cook's place for
lunch. After resting two hours he took
another turn at sparring and bag punch-
Ins.
Carpenters are at work on the pavilion
nt Cook's ranch , preparing a place with a
view to nrrangliiK a hand ball court for the
Australian. Teams were put to work to
clear a strip of ground for running. The
roads from the vicinity of Klts's ritinrtcrs
are rough and probably will bo bad for
Bomo time to come , owing to the continued
thawing and freezing of snow , and a level
piece of ground away from 'the ' road has
been chosen for a track.
Shaw's Springs is still the popular place
With the curbns. The air was filled with
tno music of sleigh bells all day , as people
drove out to see Corbctt at work. He has
numerous spectators whenever he works out ,
whether It be early In the morning or late
In the afternoon. All who come are ad
mitted to the big draughty handball court
and stand about shivering and stamping their
feet till the time for Corbstt's appearance.
Jim did moro work today tlmn on any
previous day since bo settled nt Shaw's gar
den.
den.Wheeled
Wheeled : said today : "I have received
letters from all over the United States urg
ing the management to allow women to wit
ness the big fight. Wo have not decided on
that question , but I presume Stuart will call
a meeting of those Interested In a few < lnyu
to decldi ; the matter. Personally , I see no
objection. The light will be conducted under
the protection ot the law , and order will be
maintain ? ! ] . I BOO no reason why women
may not attend thn fight , as the theater cr
a foot ball game. Numerous orders for
teats are arriving. No teats will be as-
slgnrd until the plans of the arena are com
pleted. The money received for tickets will
be duly credited to the sender find the ap
plicant be given preference over all subse
quent orders. "
Ground wna broken today at the race track
nnd.lumber being1 dumped on the site. Car
penters will bo put to work tomorrow , and
the force will be Increased dally as the work
progresses. Tonight It Is clear and cold ,
with prospects good for continued bright
weather.

CAIISON , Feb. 22. Martin Julian left for
San Francisco on the western express last
evening. He will bo back Wednesday. When
asked the purpose of the trip ho said ho
I was going to buy a stock of provisions ant
also make arrangements for the hlro of
Mechanics' pavilion for the night c
March 19.
"On that date , " ho went on , "Robert Kltz
Simmons , champion pugilist of the world ,
will appear before the public of San Fran
cisco niiil give nn exhibition after beatlni ;
the head off .Mr. Corbett. "
Krnoat Uoeber Is ns confident as Julian
nnd Illckoy Is full of rcocnto dreams concerning -
corning the result of the event that Is to
transpire on 'March ' 17. The wrestler said
yesterday :
" .My wrestling with Hob Is hard , earnest
work throughout. When ho throws mo It Is
on the level , not n gift. Konr days ugo , ut
Deliver , for tlio first time since wo have been
together , Fitzslimnons scored n game. 1
purposely gave him an opening , nnd to my
surprise , despite nil my efforts to prevent
him , he threw mo In n fair nnd square
manner and pinned mo to the lloor for three
minutes , When you consider that I weigh
217 pounds and Kltzslminons only 1G8 , yon
can appreciate the excellence of the per
formance. Kltzslminons Is stronger nnd mnro
cloyer than ho ever was before nnd I don't
ECO how ho can lose with Corbctt. I think
the light will bo all over Insldo of ten
rounds , Kltzslinmons concedes that Corbott
Is clever , but our innn la by far the hardest
I'.ltter. IIo can afford to take- two or three of
Corbett'a blows to land one of his own and
every tlnio ho gets ono In 1 want to tell you
that It will take thirty pounds off of him.
My reason for this statement Is based partly
on what I taw In Hob's light with Mahcr.
I think all fair-minded persons will agrco
with mo when 1 say Mnner Is one of the
bardlet hitters In the ring today. Well , bo
smashed Hob twice good nnd hard , but the
blown dll not bntncr him at nil ,
' 'When ' Kltzalmmons landed on the Irish
man the big fellow went down , nnd ono
more little punch put him to sleep , Cor-
bett'n gnmo will probably bo to spar nt Ions
range , the snmo as ho fought Sullivan , but
ns soon as ho begins to fight In real
earnest Hob will keep him moving , and It
will bo only a matter of time before ho la
put out. Many people profess to believe
that Kltrelmmons won't bo able to land on
Jim. Why not ? Mitchell landed on Cor
bett nnd mndo him think for a while. If
Mitchell could do that , haw much better can
our man , with his advantage In reach mid
everything else. Take my word for It , as
BOOH aa Kltzslmmoiiti lauds it will bo all
over but the shouting. "
Upon learning what Julian and Fltsslm-
tnons had to say about the outcome of the
bnttle , Corbctt said ;
"Oh , well , I am not making that kind of
talk. If they like to hear themselves
spoik , why It's all right. H does not hurt
anybody. I am surprised nt KltTslmmona
running out In thu now today , I don't
think It wns a very good thing for him to
do , but I guers ho knows bent. ' About this
loud talk from their side you juit wait
till Brady gets hero , aud then there will
be some fun. He cn outtalk tlio whole lot
of them , and is not afraid to say what he
thinks , cither. I expect him here on Thurs
day. He left New York today.
With legard to Sharkpy's statement that
ho hag In hta possession tetters from Cor
bctt that , If published , would stamp him an a
fnklr of the worst kind , Jim had very little
to eay beyond denying the truth of the re
port and saying that Sharkcy had evidently
become affected with a touch of what he
characterizes as "the Julian Jaw. "

CHICAGO. Feb. 22. In the slx-diy blcy-
do race at T/Uters.ilIs only eighteen of the
twenty-nine riders were staying at 9 o'clock
tonight. All looked fresh , and all were
working hard. At eighteen hours Fred
Poll In or , the local man , led Hale by a score
of miles , and was ahead of Halo's record In
Mr.dls.on Square Garden. With this record
to hta credit , Schlner retired for n rest and
rub-down. Ashlngcr , th& Oklahoma boomor.
gained the lead and at the twentieth hour
Ashlngcr was abaut six miles back of the
reccrd , with Schlner barely a mile back of
Ashlnger. Teddy Hale WES troubled nil
day with his stomach , losing the lead
thereby. Toward night ho recovered and
made great going In the evening. At a
late hour tonight tlio fight seemed to bo be
tween Schlner , Aehlnger and Halo , with the
chances In favor of the founcr. Halo's
stomach Is very liable to throw him out of
the race , and Ashlnger Is hardly In ahape ,
owing to hard work of last week , to stay the
race out.

Young of the National League of Ilase Hall
Clubs has finished the preparation of the
schedule of thr games to be played during
the coming seascn and will submit It to the
spring meeting , which begins In this city on
Thursday next. There appears to bo but
little doubt that the schedule as arranged by
President Young will be adopted without ma
terial dissension and practically without
change , as It had been prepared after a full
correspondence with various clubs and careful
consideration. President Young Is very reti
cent concerning the schedule , but the fol
lowing details concerning It have been
learned :
The first league game will be In Uoston ,
April 10 , between Uoston and Philadelphia ,
but this U merely to celebrate "Concord
day , " a local holiday. The season proper
will bsgln April 22. with Hoaton In Balti
more , Brooklyn In Philadelphia and Wash

NEW YORK , Kcb. 22. The twenty-first
annual dog show of the Westminster Kennel
club opened today and will continue until
next Thursday at Mndlson Square garden.
The mastiff classes are not so large as last
year. St. Hcrnards nre very much In
evidence. Hloodhounds nnd Great Danes nre
well represented. In the latter class. Major
McKlnloy , prize winner for the last few
years , has found his rival In Marcus
Antonlus , winner of the first prize In the
oijen class last year. Dtiko of Kent , the
heavy weight pointer who beat all comers
last year , will bo challenged for flrslhonors
by Moulton Banner , who won In the llrst
challenge prize In 1S95 nt Chicago , Detroit ,
St. Louis nnd Uoston. There nre 119 Hoston
terriers of n better class than lost year.
Among the exhibitors nro J. Plerponl
Morgan , George Gould , Henry Jarret , J. L.
Kcrnochan and Oliver Ames.
The Blcmpton and Rutherford kennels are
the principal rivals this yeur In fox terriers
and besides all the old prize winners have
several new dogs on the bench. Among
these Is Clandlan , full brother to Claud
Dnval , the best dog In England. The setter
elasces nro well filled. Esquimaux dogs that
drew sleds for 1'eary'n Arctic expedition are
Interesting features of the show. Ono of
the attaches of the expedition Is also present.

CHICAGO. Feb. 22. The Hurllngton route
will not make any reduction In the rate to
Carson on account of the prize fight. This
stand waa taken today after a conference be
tween the olllcluls. P. S. Kustls , general
passenger agent , said this decision was
arrived at because the ofilclnls of the
Uiirllngton concluded that a prlzo fight was
not nn event which would justify them In
making such a concession ns a reduction In
rates.
The announcement of the above by Tin
lice was a complete surprise to the passenger
olficlnls at the headquarters In this city.
They had unofilclally announced a rate or
$ C5 from Omaha and of ? 7 < > .SO from Chicago
for the fight In order that their agents might
solicit business. They Imvo not yet been
advised that the rates offered and advertised
must bo withdrawn. If the message Is con
firmed they will ho withdrawn today. At the
local headquarters the reported action of
General Passenger Agent Etistls Is regarded
is a most probable fact. Should the Hurling.
Ion's lines west of the Missouri river wlth-
ilraw the rate the business out of Omaha
would be left to the Rock Island and the
Union Pacific.

lllds for painting the two viaducts will bo
opened nt the meeting of the city council
tonight nnd It Is understood that the contract
Is to be let. Considerable rivalry Is ex
pected , although up lo last night only ono
bid had been filed with the city clerk. It
Is estimated that the work will cost In the
neighborhood of $2,000.
' .Mayor Knpor has fixed tip a little surprise
for members of the council In the shape of a
veto of the resolution passed at the last ses
Klon , Imtructlng the city attorney to con
fcss Judgment for $ .1.000 In favor ot the
receivers of the American Water Works com
pany. Thin bill was for hydrant rental foic
the last six months of 1S93.
Another matter oi Importance which Is on
the slate to comet up Is the scheme of locat
ing five nre and police alarm boxes In illf-
foruit parts of the- city at an annual coal
of $1SO. In cape this plan Is accepted the
telephone cc.mnany . will erect the street
booths , put In a'long distance transmitter
and a metallic circuit and maintain these
boxes for $ .1 a month a piece , making $3G a
year for each booth and a total of $1SO for the
live. U Is proposed to use these telephones
for police and lire calls only , and to locate
the boxes In sections of the city where there
are neither telephones or nre alarm boxes.
It ccots the city about $1GO for every lire
alarm box In use , and many of those now In
rervlco are of the old interstate pattern and
practically worthless. In cold weather tlicne
boxes stick , and the alarm Is not sent In cor-
lectly. Constant testing and repairing Is
necessary to keep thes ? 'boxes In working
order , and then U Is not possible to do GO In
extremely cold weather , as was demonstrated i
[ luring the recent cold snap. ly ! the pro-1
,5cacd , plan , the city would gain nve nre alarm [
boxes at a very low rate , and by continual
use would be kept constantly in repair
