CORBETT PULLED FITZ'S NOSE After Which the Champion Pugilist Delib erately Spat In Bis Antagonist's Face, Subsequently Fitz Threw a Water Bottle at Joe Corbett. PllILADLErHIA, A tig. 12. Pugilist Fitz llmmons left for Now York yesterday forenoon nud Pugilist Corbott wont to Scrnnton last night. During tho six hours which elapsed botweon tholr moet Ing nt Groon's hotel, on Saturday night, and Fitzslmmons' departuro thoy kept nut of tho wny of oach other, and there was no moro trouble. It Is gonorally agreed that tho wholo nffalr was an exhi bition of chlldlshnoss on tho part of both men fnrmo,ro worthy of a pair of school boys than of men who nro claimants for tho leadership In tho "manly art of self defense" In tho excitement Immedi ately following Saturday night's affair, It Was difficult In the oxtrcmo to got ah au thentic account of It, as there wore but few who saw tho light from beginning to end, and of thoso who did thero wcro not many who wero lnollnod to tell of it. Mr. H. F. Footo, Jr., an employe of tho Reading Railroad company In this city, was ono of thoso who saw It from start to finish, howovor, and from him n reportor for tho Associated Press secured tho fol lowing account: "Joo Corbott and I," said Mr. Foote, "wero standing at the oystor countor in Groon'i about midnight when wo noticed Fitzslmmons, Forrest and another man at the bar, Presently Fitzslmmons walked over to tho hotel desk and loaned on tho countor as If to register. Just thon th door, oponod nnd Brady, MoVoy and some others enmo In from the cigar storo. I saw Jim Corbott outsldo, and Joo, catch ing sight of him at tho samo tlmo, ran out to meet him. What ho said I do not know, but in a fow seconds Jim camo In and walked straight ovor to whore Fitz sliunions still stood at tho dosk, Loaning on one elbow, Corbott put his faco close to that of Fitzslmmons and said: 'Well, you aro up to your old tricks aguln, I see. Beon saying you would pull my nose, and all that sort of thing, I hearf. " 'I don't know that I havo,' ropllod Fitzslmmons, 'but what of It, anywuyf " 'Why, that's what of It,' rotortod Cor bott, as ho reached ovor and caught Fitz slmmons by tho noso. Tho lattor jerked away, giving Corbott a slight push, with his left arm as ho did so. Thon Corbott deliberately loanod ovor und spat squarely In Fitzslmmons' face. Fitzslmmons backed away, and for an instant stood looking at Corbott. Thon ho said In a low, sneering tone, with a strong accent on tho flrst word: "Gentleman Jim I Gentleman Jim I Oh, yos, Gentleman Jim, I don't think. This shows how much of a gontlomau you aro.' "Just at this point," continued Mr. Footo, "Brady earned running up, and Fitzslmmons sneorod: '' 'There's that suckor of a manager of yours. I guess you have your whole gang horo. "Nothing more was said by olther man," added Mr. Footo, "and I think that would have been tho end of It, but Forrest ran ovor and Joe Corbott rushod up to tako a hand. Thon thero was a gen oral scrlmmago, In which all hands, ex cept Jim Corbott, took part. Ho stood as cool as a cucumber until tho others had quieted down, still leaning against tho desk. Finally Fitzslmmons' friends got him over to a tablo, and he sat down, whllo Joe Corbott took up his position at the oyster counter near by. " 'I can lick you myself, you red headed chump I' shoutod Joo Corbottt, after a minute or two, at the same time shaking his fist at Fitzslmmons. "The lattor jumped tohls foot, and pick ing up a carafe that stood boslde him fired It straight at Joo Corbett's head. Brady happenod to pass just at this tlmo, and tho bottle struck him squaro in tho chest, al most knocking him down. Fitzslmmons roaohod for another bottle, but Forrest caught him and hold his hand. All this time Jim Corbett stood loaning against the desk, laughing with all his might. '"Look at the duffer,' he said, 'he is as white as a ghost. Ho's scared to death. Seo that look of fear on his face. I wouldn't bo that scared, and show It, for a mtllon dollars,' and he laughed and joerod again until Fitzslmmons looked as If he was about to throw something at tho older brother, too. Ho didn't, however, oontent lng himself with sneerlngly remarking as he glared at the champion: " 'You fat head.' "'You red hoad,' was Corbett's re sponse. " 'Puddln' head,' sneorod Fitz, again. " 'Sap head,' rotortod Corbott. And thus the two men stood calling oach other names and oxchauglng childish epithets until they got tired of It, and both wont out." Fitzslmmons, In an Interview after tho fight, donlod that Corbott bad tweaked his nose, but admitted that ho had tried to do so, and the champion had autuully spat in his face. Ho und his frlonds ox plain bis failure to resont tho Insult with u blow by saying that Fitzslmmons could not afford to jeopurdize his chancos in tho coming fight In that way, as noarly all tho men In tho placo at the tlmo were friends of Corbett, and that Fitzslmmons would havo stood no show whatever, Cor bett's party, on tho other hand, contend that Fitzslmmons cloarly showed the whlto feather, und say his actions In the matter show that ho has "a streak of vellnw" in his uiakBun Special to Private I'liiullloit.

THE SUPPLY ORDERED SHUT OFF Councllmen Claim an Attempt Has Been Made to Use the Water for Washery Pur poses at the Breaker The Progress of Town Connections. A breeze has been stirred among tho Coun cllmen by a report that tho right granted to tho operators of the Furnace colliery to use witter supplied by the public miter works has been abused. Ifecently tho operators ap plied to Council for permission to connect tho colliery with tho pipe of the public works laid to Turkey Itunand after some discus sinn the right was granted and the establishment of terms was left in the hands of tho water committee, which took the matter up nmldecideilthnttlie operators should pay five dollars per mouth for each of the three boilers and each head of mules. Pending the preparation and signing of tho agreement the operators pro ceeded to make the connection and to that end laid about seven hundred yards of pipe. Yesterday Counclhnen Gable and Kane, who are members of tho water committee, went over to the colliery to see what had been done. In the survey of the field they acci dentally discovered a pipe connecting the tank erected to receive the borough water with one which takes surplus water for use in the washerj- operated at the mine. The pipe was a short one and covered by a man's coat. The Coiincihneii concluded that an ad vantage was being taken of the grant and ordered that the water bo shut otr until the operators and Council arrive at some con clusion as to the connection discovered yes terday. I Tho work of making the connections in town is progressing very favorably. Con tractors Gallagher and Lamb on Saturday commenced work at tho west end of Oak street and tills morning had made connections as far as West street. They expect to com plete the work on O.ik street as far as Main street by this evening and will then begin at the west end of Lloyd street. They expect to finish that street as far as Main and West Coal street this week, but this will depend altogether on the furnishing of the corpora tion stops, which the manufacturers aro slow in delivering. It is said that the supply of stops the manufacturers had on hand had run out before the demand caused by the local contract arose and they are now being shipped right from the work shop as fast as they can bo turned out, and the supply, of course, can not keep up with the demand.
