Nashvi’le. Tenn., Oct. 16.—Governor
Turney said today that If the prize fight
lovers attempted to pull the Corbett

would meet a hot reception from the civ

THE CITIZENS’ COMMITTEE
Offer $t 0,000 as a Guarantee That Theie
Will Be No Brutality—Working on
Governor Clark.
Hot Springs, Ark., Oot. 16.—Goveronr
Clark arrived on the 12:45 p. m. train,
and was met by a delegation of the cl'tl
rens’ committee. He was at once driven
to the Arlington hotel, where a confer
ence was held at 2 o'clock this afternoon.
Judge Duffle adjourned court to be pres
ent at the conference. Among those
present were also State Attorney Teague,
the officers of the Florida Athletic club
and General Taylor. The meeting was
held in private; newspaper reporters and
correspondents were excluded, but a
member of the conference said the citi
zens' committee would endeavor to
handle Governor Clark as they did Gen
eral Taylor. The committee completely
satisfied General Taylor before the con
ference adjourned that no law would be
broken. The gloves will be shown and
a guarantee of $10,000 will be offered that
there will be no brutality.
IT LOOKS like a go.
Governor Clark May Let Corbett and Fitz
Hammer Each Other With Solt Gloves.
Hot Springs, Ark., Oct. 16.—A confer
ence regarding the proposed fight took
place at the Arlington hotel this after
noon, Governor Clark, Judge A. M. Duf
fee. Sheriff Houpt, State's Attorney
Teague, the citizen's committee and
their legal representatives participating.
Newspaper men were excluded.
A member of the conference stated af
ter adjournment at 5:30 that ihe govern
ment had agreed to leave the whole mat
ter to the local authorities; that the lat
ter have given him positive assurances
that there will be no prize fight, but a
glove contest as indicated in the revised
articles of the agreement as sent out yes
terday. He stated that the governor
gave him positive assurance that if there
was no law to prevent glove contests,
and if only a glove contest was contem
plated, he would not Invade the city with
an armed force to prevent It.
Another member of the conference
committee stated that he could only re
port progress of a favorable nature at the
time of adjournment. The governor's
views had undergone somewhat of a
change, caused by a more thorough un
derstanding of the intentions of the prin
cipals, and that a brutal exhibition of
the manly art was comtemplated to be
brought off here.
The programme is now to make a test
case by causing the arrest of Maher and
O’Donnell, who are both in near proxim
ity to the city, some time tomorrow. They
will be placed under bonds to keep the
peace, which they will refuse to give, and
they will go to jail, when a writ of ha
beas corpus will be issued and taken be
fore Chancellor Leatherman for trial.
Col. John J. Sumpter, a church member,
and one of the most active opponents of
the mill, said this evening that he, in
company with Judge Hudgins, had ex
amined the statutes of the state and
found that there is no law against prize
fighting, and that he would oppose -any
attempt that might be made to place the
county under martial law for the purpose
of suppressing something that was not
a violation of any law. In other words,
he did not propose to violate a law him
self or see it done if he could prevent it.
He was assured by the governor that
there would be no militia sent to Garland
county, but the governor would insist
that there should be nothing more than
a glove contesf.
The conference as called today at the
request of the citizens' committee, whose
chief desire is to convince the governor
that no infraction of the law is contem
plated by the revised articles of agree
ment, and that a contest with five ounce
gloves for a limited number of rounds
could not be construed as a prize fight
or result in bodily Injury to either con
testant. The citizens’ committee was
represented by W. H. Martin, C. N. Rix,
R. L. Williams, L. Thay, J. D. Kimball, J.
B. Varndere, W. J. Little, L. D. Cooper,
W. F. Waters, W. L. Babcock, J. W.
Johns and C. G. Conners. Sheriff Houpt,
Prosecuting Attorney Teague and Judge
Duffle represented the Judicial and exec
utive branch of the county government.
Judge Duffle,at the request of Governor
Clark, adjourned the circuit court until
tomorrow so as to be present at the con*
ference. The state was represented by
Governor Clark and General Taylor. The
conference began at 2:30 o’clock and last
ed three hours. The members continued
in earnest discussion during all this time.
Prior to the holding of the conference
Governor Clark was given a hearty re
ception by the citizens. He greeted them
cordially and expressed a desire to do
right, to assist them out of their financial
embarrassments, but could not allow the
law to be violated that they might pros
per to the detriment of the rest of the
state.
At 5 o'clock Judge Duffle and Governor
Clark emerged from the conference room
alone and walked to the Milwaukee hotel,
where they made Inquiry for Judge B. B.
Hudgins of the Fourteenth Judicial cir
cuit. who is here for his health. Judge
Hudgins has made several speeches
against allowing the proposed contest
coming off here or at any other point In
the state. At a mass meeting held last
Monday at the Methodist church he said
that it would disgrace Arkansas forever
If the officials allowed it.
Today it»ls stated that Judge Hudgins
has given his opinion that there was no
law to prevent it.
The Fighters on Exhibition.
Hot Springs, Ark., Oct. 16.—The citi
zens’ committee remained in private ses
sion last night until long after midnight.
What action was decided upon is known
to no one but the members of the com
mittee. as they bound themselves to se
crecy before they adjourned.
It is understood that Fitzsimmons and
his company will be here soon and also
give an exhibition with his company in
the opera 'house as Corbett will do to
night Peter Maher and O’Donnell came
in last night. Peter Maher remained at
the Arlington last night, and this morn
ing went bo Hughes' garden, which will
be his training quarters.
The Railroad* Are Preparing.
St. Louis, Oct. 16.—That the Iron Moun
tain railway officials feel assured that
the Corbett-FItzsimmons fight will take
place at Hot Springs is evident from the
conference of the passenger agents at
the headquarters of that company for
two days past. Nearly every passenger
representative of the Iron Mountain road
In the principal cities between New York
and Denver has been In attendance,
■which was presided over by General Pas
senger Agent Townsend. The number of
people who will attend the fight was es
timated by outside agents at 30.000 and
possibly the figure will be Increased If
the public becomes satisfied that the
fight will surely take place.

THt FARMERS’ CONGRESS
Epjoy an Outing at Fruithurst—Editor White
of Iowa Gives an Account of the
! Pleasures.
Mr. F. S. White of Des Moines, la., was
lit the city yesterday on his way home
from the Atlanta exposition. Mr. White
i»! on the staff of the .Iowa State Register
of Des Moines and is In charge of that
paper’s agriculture exhibit at the exposi
tion. In conversation with a State Her
ald reporter Mr. White expressed himself
as well pleased with the exposition. He
said it was a great thing and ventured
the prediction that inestimable benfit to
the whole south would accrue from the
showing there made. He said thousands
of people from Iowa and other northwest
ern states would visit the exposition and
from there go Into almost every southern
state to investigate for themselves the
wonderful resources reported to be here.
Mr. White furnishes the State Herald
with the following proceedings of the
farmers’ congress, which adjourned in
Atlanta to meet at Fruithurst Tuesday,
under special invitation from the Fruit
hurst Fruit Growers’ and Winery asso
ciation:
special coacnes ror tne party were
secured from the Southern railway and
110 delegates of the congress, nany of
whom had their wives with them, board
led the train for a day’B outing and recre
ation. This select delegation represent
ed thirty-eight states and some of the
ablest talent of the country.
"We reached Fruithurst at 9 o'clock
in the morning, when the congress was
called to order by President Clayton in
the piney woods, where a very profitable
session of the continuance of the pro
gramme was discussed while the good
people were preparing a royal feast. The
association having a saw and planing
mill on their grounds, nice pine benches
were soon provided for our comfort. Af
ter a few hours spent on the programme
dinner was announced. There being
enough ladies to fill the tableB It was
voted that the president take the ladles
to dinner. The president being a mar
ried man and we having in our party a
batchelor, Colonel Powell, of Pennsyl
vania, our president conferred this honor
on Colonel Powell. While this gentle
man and the ladles were at dinner the
regular routine of the business was dis
pensed with and a regular line of short
speech making was indulged In by the
delegates, and speeches were made by
members from Massachusetts to Florida
and from New York to California.
“As soon as dinner was Berved the la
dies were driven over the grounds of the
association and for several miles out to
see the country. After being served to a
grand dinner we were turned loose to do
as we pleased. Everyone seemed to en
joy himself to the fullest extent. Judge
William Lawrence of Ohio was made
chief of ceremonies and many nice things
the judge hadl to say. After spending the
afternoon In seeing the fruit farm and
adjacent country, loading ourselves w’ith
relics, telling Jokes and singing songs, we
were called to order by our president at
the depot, when Judge Lawrence made
another of his speeches and a vote of
thanks was tendered our hosts, Captain
Phillips and Mr. Spencer; also a vote of
thanks to Mr. White for the part he had
taken in securing so great a treat for
the congress.
“At 6 p. m. we were taken by special
train over to Tallapoosa, Ga., to a grand
hotel, where another banquet was given
and Judge Lawrence of Ohio again
brought out for a speech. We found a
superb supper In waiting for us at the
hotel, where we were served with food
fit for kings, to say nothing of the fine
wine made from the grapes grown by the
colony on their Alabama farm. After
supper Judge Lawrence was called upon
(to make a parting speech, and as all hadi
so fully enjoyed themselves the Judge
was just In the right mood to do his best.
In this parting speech the judge spoke of
what an honor it was to be an American
citizen; how the Atlanta exposition and
the friendly shake of hands at these great
national congresses were healing over all
the bttternr f, between the sections of
our country He spoke of the grand re
ception which the people of Georgia and
Alabama had given the people of the
north; how in this day’s mingling to
gether we had formed renewed friend
ships, which would last as long as time
should last.
“After the judge closed his speech the
party joined in singing “America,” un
der! the lead of Colonel Abraham of Iowa,
who Is renowned as a famous singer of
national songs."

THE RACES.
Robert J. Is Still King.
Lexington, Ky., Oct. 16.—Robert .T.
proved blmself the best of the four start
ers in the free-for-all paee today, and
vanquished the two star performers.
John R. Gentry and Joe Patchen, quite
handily. His strongest rival for first
honors was the New England gelding,
Frank Agan, who figured In the three
heats a close second, but a break near
the wire of the deciding heat caused him
to be placed last and Gentry second.
Robert J. and Joe Patohen sold for $50
eaoh, while Agan and Gentry brought
$15 as a field.
In the first heat Agan drew the pole,
with Robert J. on the outside, and tt wa|
a merry slip to the half In 1:0114, against
a stiff wind. Patchen and Frank Agan
went like a team, with Robert J two
lengths back and Gentry not In the hunt.
Swinging down the home stretch Geers
moved up with Robert J. and outfooted
Agan by a small margin. In the next
two heats It was Robert J. all the route,
and the four pacers were closely bunched.
Geers reserved his speed for the last,
whre Mr. Hamlin’s great pacer showed he
was by odds the best horse. Lynne Bell
proved himself a game and reliable race
horse today In the 2:11 trot. Five' of the
Transylvania starters were In today’s
event, and Lynn Bel proved the best.
Altao won the third heat In 2:11. In the
next heat McDowell wept away with
Altao at a killing clip, making the half
In 1.04%, and was a length in front of
Lynne Bel. At the seventh furlong Al
tao made a stand-still break and dropped
out of It. The 2:20 pace proved tiresome
before a conclusion was reached. Madge
D. won a heat last evening, and after one
today appeared distressed, but revived In
the seventh and distanced the two heat
winners, Harry Victor and Rjtssle Clay,
In very slow time. The pair of pony
trotters. Winnie D., by Aaron Wilkes,
and Algeria Queen, by Algeria Wilkes,
lowered the world record of 2:46 to
2:32%, double, to a bike wagon, making
a new record for a trotting team under
1214 hands high. They are owned by A.
Welch, Hartford, Conn.
