Judge Clark and Other Authorities Hold the Law Unconstitutional and. in Fact, that to all Intents and Purposes there Is no Such Law Attorney General and Comptroller Wiley are of a Different Mind Test Case Already In the Courts Sale of Tickets will Begin Wednesday 1'ngilUtlc and Baclnsr News. Dallas, Tex., July S. Judge George Clark of Waco has submitted an opin ion as to the legality of the proposed Corbett-Fitzslmmons glove contest. The opinion is very exhaustive and lengthy. His conclusions are: First That the original act of 1891 was wholly inoperative. Second That when its provisions were re-enacted in the penal code of 1S95 It was still inoperative for the want of some court to try the offense. Third That the law was repealed by the revised statutes, which go into ef fect September 1, 1893. Fourth That there is now no law upon the statute books of Texas pro hibiting pugilistic encounters and that upon a payment or tender ot tne license fee prescribed for such exhibi tion there is no lawful power in the state under present laws to interfere with the exhibition. Judge Clark gave the matter at is sue careful study and patient research and his opinion is most sweeping. Austin, Tex., July S. Attorneys rep resenting the Dallas management of the Corbett-FItzsimmons fight called on the attorney general today in ref erence to the constitutionality of the law prohibiting prize fights in this state. They had written opinions from Hon. George It. Clark of Waco, and Hon. "William Crawford of Dallas, hold ing that the law was unconstitutional. The attorney general will hear argu ments from the gentlemen tomorrow. The opinion is that he will hold to the law until the supreme court declares it unconstitutional. Attorney General Crane is known to have expressed his belief that the law is perfectly Found and that the Cor-bett-Fitzsimmons fight will never take place in Texas. Comptroller WUey in refusing a. license to the pugil ists, is understood to have acted under the attorney general's advise. "With such a conflict of opinions, the outcome of the prosecution of Cava naugh and Bright Eyes, two local fight ers who met at Galveston last week, will be watched with unusual Interest. It is likely that the Florida Athletic club, through Dan Stuart of Dallas, will employ the best lawyers in the state to defend the pugilists, for upon the decision will rest thousands and thousands of dollars. Dallas, Tex., July S. At the head quarters of the Florida Athletic club the sale of tickets for the meeting be tween Corbett and Fitzsimmons will begin at 10 a. m., Wednesday. The price of seats will be as follows: Box with five chairs, $200, or $40 a chair; re served seats $20; general admission, $10. The sales of seats will begin in New York, SL Louis and other cities as soon ns copies of the diagram can reach them. Abbott Knocks Duko Out. Boltimore, July 8.

A general banking business is done by the human system, because the blood de posits in its vaults whatever wealth we may gain from day to day. This wealth is laid up against "a rainy day " as a reserve fund we're in a condition of healthy prosperity if we havelaid away s-ufHcient capital to draw upon in the hour of ourgTeateit need. There is danger in getting thin, became it s a s-ign of Jetting dowu in health. To gam in "blood is nearly always to gain in zcholc sov:c flesh. The odds' are in favor of the gcmib of consumption, grip, or pneumonia, if our liver be inactive aud our blood im pure, or if our fie&h be reduced Aro:r a healthy standard. What is required is an increase in our sem-f.ghltrtfr strength. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Disco cry enriches the blood and makes it wholesome, stops the wa?tc of tissue and at the same rime builds up the strength. A medicine which will rid the blood of its poisons, cleanse and invigorate the great organs of the bodv, vitalise the system, thrill the whole being with new energy and make permanent work of it, is surely a remedy of great value But when we make a positive ::tateinent that oS per cent, of all cases of consumption can, if taken in thtj eariv stages of the" disease, be CURED with the ' Discovery," it seemslikc a bold assertion All Dr. Fierce asks is that you make a thorough investigation and irrt a tree ooot witti tne names, adcresscs and photographs of a large number of those cured of throat, brenchiai and lung dieaes, as well as of skin and scrofulous affections by the "Golden Medical Discovery."

GIANT SUCTION IN THE OHIO. Cause of the Wreck of the Longfellow is at Last OIcocreiI. Cincinnati, July S. A clue that may solve the mystery leading to the cause of the Longfellow disaster has been dis covered in the wreckage of the boat. The pilots have all along claimed the boat took a sudden sheer on them as it approached the C. and O. bridge and that almost superhuman efforts upon their part could not prevent the boat from dashing as it did against the pier. United States local Inspectors, after these statements, examined the river at that point, together with gov ernment engineers, and they admitted that there was a certain suction at the Kentucky pier of the bridge that drew them there firmly. When the great Crane boat fastened its ponder ous lifting machinery around the boil ers of the Longfellow and started to pull them something seemed to hold them back. The boilers vere jammed plumb up acainst the Kentucky pier of the C. and O. bridire. After much tugging and pulling the great crane, that has a 50.000-pound lifting power, ceased operations and Diver Hammer nt down into the river. He was himself drawn up a:nint th boilers and had to make quick time in signal ing to be drawn up or he would have lost his life there. Such a suction and such an under-current is not known at any other part of thi Ohio. When the boilers were finally recovered one of them was found to be damaged to such an extent it will never be of ony service. It had been mashed almost flat by contact with the pier. The other boilers out tide this under-current is were found to be in perfect con dition. This fact will prove to be val uable in the evidence in favor of the pilots, who for years were known to be among the most careful and skillful men in their profession. The charge that the boat s-ank through negh-et has almost rusned the prospects of one who has so grieved over his first mis fortune in forty years that he is but the shadow of his former self.

Henley-on-the-Thames, July S. The Henley regetta begins tomorrow at 3:30 p. m. Cornell will meet the famous Leander boat club crew, probably the strongest on the river. Cornell has two sick men and it Is uncertain whether or not they will be able to row. Great crowds of people witnessed the final practice of the crews this evening. None of the crews did the full course. As the Cornell crew rowed up stream and passed the town where great masses of people lined the bank, and in going under the bridge, they were greeted with hearty cheers of "Well rowed." When the crew returned to their quarters after their afternoon spin, they looked much brighter. Two policemen are guarding the Cor nell boathouse tonight. In the morn ing the crew will paddle in the racing boat to the starting point and will then take carriages to their training quar ters and rest until an hour before the race. Their carrages will then take them to the starting point. Commenting on this arrangement, Courtney remarked: "This insures avoidance of the crowds which line every inch of the road way and which would tend to excite the boys. Once seated in the boat they will not notice anything else. According to present arrangements no substitutes will be necessary. Lock to Lock, a newspaper which is considered an authority on Thames rowing matters, says tonight, in re viewing the prospects of the racing to morrow: Cornell's style Is different from ours, but any style is to be com mended that applies strength at the right moment and does so in perfect harmony. In all these esentials the Americans excel. I also believe that they have sufficient stamina ri nego tiate this trying course and label them 'Dangerous very.' " Sporting Life's correspondent says: "Sunday's rest worked wonders both with the Cornell crew and the Canadi ans. Noting the fact that the Cornell men have shown the best tim eof any of the crews In the grand Challenge class, both in calm and against head winds, the correspondent predicts that there will be a grand struggle between Cornell and Leander. As ther edoes not ap- pear to be more than half a length be tween the two, Leander should just out stay Cornell. City Chemist, St. & Royal Baking I others.

And there is Every Possibility of Him Do ing It in New York. New York. July S. Solan J. Vlasco a wealthy Greek merchant of this city and proprietor of the Greek newspaper Atlantis, has been holding and anima ted discussion in his newspaper with A. Romanos. a member of the house of dep uties of Greece and formerly Greek con sul to London. The two men have been saying all sorts of hard things about each other and now Vlasto's friends are alarmed because they think a duel imminent. In a recent number of Atlantis Mr. Vlasto came out with a letter in which he openly accused Mr. Romanos of hav ing obtained his seat in the house of deputies by fraud. Vlasto declares further that he had "aken measures tA punish Romanos through the courts for attacks made on his character. He wound up the letter by intimating that he was willing to give Romanos any satisfaction the latter wants, and expressed his willingness to cross the ocean and meet his enemy either in France or Belgium. Mr. Vlasto is loath to talk about the matter at all, but to a reporter who caled on him today he said that, while he had not challenged Mr. Romanos, to a duel, he had agreed to give him any satisfaction he wnnted, and wouldn't be surprised at any time to get a chal 1 en ire. "This is truly an unpleasant matter" said Mr. Vosto, "and I am sorry that it trot out at all. I had hoped that it would not go further than the col umns of my own paper in this country- "It would take hours to tell the whole story, and I will not attempt to do It. but will only say that the trouble be tween Mr. Romanos and myself was started by D N.

During Romono's campaign a letter was pub lished in my paper about him. to which he took exceptions. I don't remember just what the letter was about but it made Romanos very angry.

Later an investiga tion committee was appointed to look into the charges of bribery, and during the course of the investigation one of the deputies asked Romanos what he had to say to a letter about him pub lished in my paper. Ha said that 1 was a personal enemy of his, and that no credence should be given to my words" Mr. Ylasco refused to talk further about the matter. It is said that the real cause of the trouble is a speech made in the house of deputies at Athens by Romanos, in which Mr. Vlasto's char acter is severely attacked. Are You "From Pennsylvania?

STANFORD WILL GIVE Ue'r Diamonds are all Noted and have Far ticuiar Points of Beauty. Washington, July S. The statement recently made that Mrs. Leland Stan ford wasabout to sell her marvelous col lection of jewels in aid of the Stanford university has revived interest in these famous gems. Mrs. Stanford on sever al occasions during her residence here, either at the White House receptions or at dinners, wore such elegant jewels that it was generally supposed Wash ington had seen the last of them. After the death of her son Mrs. Stanford never again cared to wear jewels, and when she did so it was because of her husband's desire, and she selected the simplest she owned. The others re posed In the darkness of her banker's vaults, and were never brought to this city. There are few more choice and ex tensive collections of gems among the royal family of the old world than hers. Their value is variously estimat ed at from $1,000,000 to $2,000,000. Of the four Queen Isabella diamond sets, which cost $600,000 in Paris, the first is of blue diamonds, as they omit violet rays by day; another has pink rays in its stones; the third set is of diamonds as yellow as topaz, and the fourth of flawless white stones. Eeach set has a tiara or neckless, pendant brooch, ear- rings, from four to six bracellets and some finger rings, all of the same style ot make and of corresponding stones. One necklace (not belonging to any Louis : Powder excels all of the sets above named) is valued at $100,000. and its pendants at $30,000. This was manufactured to order, and consits of large colored diamonds, ru bies, sapphires and emeralds, all of the purest water. A band of large yellow diamonds encircle the throat, each set in smaller white stones. Below this band is placed a floriated design in small white diamonds and colored stones extending in deep points. Be tween each of these points is suspended an immense yellow diamond set in white diamonds and attached to the upper part of the necklace by a ruby, emerald or sapphire. There are five of these pendants, the central one being the largest and having once figured in the collection of the Duke of Bruns wick.

The sensational story of the kidnapping of Mrs. Gor don, the widow of the late Hon. Sack vine Gordon, was fully ventilated In the police court today, when Ernst Crane, Henry Crane and James Hook were committed for trial charged with participating in the crime. The abduc tion of the woman, it is claimed, wa3 done at the instance of an American named Clamp, with whom Mrs. Gordon had lived, in order to obtain the bonds, money, jewelry, etc., which she was possessed of. Mrs. Gordon said she lived at 147 Brixton Road. Last March a man named Herber Krahn made a commu nication to her In consequence of which she drove him to a house called "Sea combe," King's road, Chapham Pctrk. She had on her at the time $15,000 In money and all her Jewelry. The money and some of her jewels she carried In a pocket fastened under her skirts. In her ears she wore diamond earrings and on her hands were several costly rings. Her idea was that It was better to carry her valuable about like this than leaving them at home to be stolen. As soon as ther arrived at the house Krahan said he wished to see a billiard table whifh had been advertised. Krahan said he was shown in. a one armed footman closed the door behind her. and she saw the defendant. Crane advancing. She screamed and Crane and Krahan, together with a man dis guised with a towel over his head, dragged her dawn on the ground and took her earrings away. Then they we-tt for her finger-rings. The man with the twel on his face then fetch ed handcuffs, but before they were fix ed on her face she pulled the towel off the man's face, and she recognized him at a clerk of Krahan's. She then was carried Into the dining room, which was empty and lichted only by one candle, the daylight beinsr excluded v closed shutter. Krahan said: "Strip her! Tear her clothes off'" The other three did so. wh'ie they went through her clothes for her valuabl" They even felt In her stock ing and slippers 'or note?

Krahan left with the witness keys and went to her house in Bnxton road, and witness stood entirely unadorned and handcuffed, imploring Crane to give her some clothes, which he would not do for a long time. On the third day she was released, but she stopped at the house until a constable came by. In the hall of the house was found a note signed "Henry Crane," referring her to the defend ant's solicitors, Messrs. Beard & Sons, while in Krahan's writing there was a postscript saying her jewely would be returned to her intact. Next day there came another letter from Crane, urging her not to fail to see Messrs. Bear. DIED ON HIS MOTHER'S GRAVE. Yooug Man Kills Himself Becaoss lie was Gradually Golnff Deaf. Stanford, Conn., July S. Undertaker D. D. Divan was shocked this morning upon reading the contents of a letter which he had received by special deliv ery. It was signed A. Roux. and it in substance requested the undertaker to go immediately to the cemetery, where he would find the dead body of the writer. It was coupled with the re quest that the remains be sent to Fresh Pond creamatory. The letter went on to give directions where the body would be found in Woodland cemetery. About the same time that Undertak er Divan received the letter Grave Dig ger Fairchild discovered the body of Albert Roux. shot through the heart. lying near the grave of the mother of the suicide. An umbrella was raised over the body, probably by Roux be fore he fired the fatal bullet. He was a cigarmaker. about 41-years of age and unmarried. He lived with his brother here, and had repeatedly talked of suicide. The death of his mother and growing deafness preyed on his mind and was the cause of his act.

Another Battle which will Gite the Monroe Doctrine Runiuess In South America. Washington, July S. The strained re lations between France and Brazil over the French Guina boundary appears to become more complicated dally. The subject is analogous to the British Venezuela trouble In which the United States has taken a hand, and in the opinion of officials here, the French con test with Brazil is rapidly assuming an aggravated aspect, which may again call for he attention of the United States, as the Monroe doctrine applies to one no less than the other. An armed conflict has occurred in the dis puted territory between French soldiers and Brazlllians. The French govern ment has demanded redress and the Brazilian congress has passed a resolu tion couched in sharp language calling for an explanation from France. A cable report from Brazil states that the government regards the subject as so menacing that a strict censorship has been established on all information regarding it. The armed conflict has merely brought to a crisis the long con tention over the French Guina territory Both countries claim a large tract of territory extending north from the Amn. zon river and equal In extent to what Is usually designated on the map as French Guina. Both countries regard the occupation of this disputed territo ry as unwarranted. The fault for the recent conflict cannot be placed.French Guina Is wanted by France as a con vict colony for the deportation of the worst classes from the French prisons As a result the population i3 a strange mixture of French. Arabs, Malays, and Greeks and the riff-raff of Paris, where they are a desperate and lawless class. A few years ago one of these adventur ers, a man named Gros, attempted to set np a-n Independent country. He established a capital and called his government "Independent Guina." The boundary dispute has run through two centuries and has the distinction of be ing en article in the two famous trea ties, Utrecht and Amiens. Brazil was formerly a Portuguese col ony and Portugal Insisted that It ex - tended up to the French-Gulna bounda ry now shown on the maps. France claimed that their territory ran down to the Amazon. In the treaty at Ut recht the river Vincet-PInzeon was fixed as the boundary. Portugal then claimed that this river was the north, crly stream now marking the bounda ry while France claimed that it was the stream near the Amazon, so that the treaty left the dispute as far open ns ever. Since the recent armed con flict French soldiers have crossed the boundary and permanently established themselves in the disputed territory with the purpose, it is believed of hold ing it by force.
