BOB FIHliSo' R1L The Pugilist's Backer Refuses to Sign the Altered Agreement. CONTEST FORMALLY DECLARED OFF An Arrangement May be' Made for a Bout Between Maher and Corbett The Cham pion Declares That he Will Assault Fltzslmmons on Sight. Hot Si-rings, Ark., Oct. 23. Unless Robert Fltzslmmons recants and, through his manager, Martin Julian, accepts tho extraordinary condition which confronts tho fight situation here, thero will bo no contest between Corbctt and Fltzslmmons unless It bo an Impromptu ono, shorn of purso offering, ring rules, referee and seconds, for Corbctt says that unless Fltz slmmons acts tho man nnd accommodates himself to circumstances "ho will send him to a hospital" tho first time ho moots him, and that ho will goqultoaway out of his scheduled thoatrlcal routo to meet the Cornish man. Yesterday thero was a conferenco be tween Dan Stuart, Joo Vendlg and tho fighters, tho latter by proxies, Hrady rep resenting Corbett, and Fltzslmmons' rep resentative being his brother-in-law, Mar tin Julian. Mr. Stuart wanted a post ponement until Nov. 15. Ho argued that oven if tho court of final rosort sustained tho decision of tho chancellor it would tako that long to restore confldonco and get tho crowd to Hot Springs. Brady, for Corbett, was willing, but Julian was not. Tho proposition was then mado to havo tho men light In private for tho main stake, $10,000 a side. Hero Stuart inter jected an oiler of an ndded $10,000 Brady was ofmln willing, but Julian domurred. Ho opined that tho club, if it pulled tho fight off on Oct. 31, would havo to niako good Its full promise of $11,000. In nil equity, in tho fueo of tho entan glements which havo besot tho path of Ban Stuart and Joo Vendlg, this cannot bo done. Where, a month ago, hundreds of excursion parties woro being organized for tho trip to tho fight, there are nono to day. Stuart asked for time, nnd Corbctt granted It, but Fltzslmmons 1ms exacted his full pound of llesh. As manors stand at this moment, to uso tho words of How ard B. Hackctt, tho highest pugilistio au thority in America, Corbett wants to light, but Fltzslmmons dow not. Finally, In a moment of disgust, tho Florida Athletic club declared tho contest between Jumes J. Corbett and Robert Fltzslmmons off. Tho programmo now is to substitute Peter Mnlier for Fltzslm mons in a contest with Corbctt, and an other man to bo found will bo depended 011 to entertain Stovo O'Dounoll. ' President Dan A. Stuart last night gavo tho following statement to 11 representa tive of tho Associated Press: "At tho out set," began Mr. Stuart, "it must bo con ceded that I was right. The fact that I was right Is demonstrated when it is recollected that it took au extraordinary session of tho legislature of the stato of Texas to mako mo wrong. This, after tho highost criminal tribunal of tho stato had adjudged 1110 right. "I seek other coigns. Ono Is afforded mo hero in tho stato of Arkansas. Every inducement Is mado mo to bring off tho contest horc. I am told that there Is noth ing illegal in what is projected. Woro I other than sound in my bollof that Chan cellor Lenthormnn would bo sustained by tho supremo court I would never havo mado tho offer to defer tho contest and per sonally obligate mysolf to seo that the full J41.O0O would bo paid over to tho winner of the contest. "I did know, howovcr, that there was a great deal of doubt as to my ability to ro lustill confldonco into tho light going pub Ho by tho timo originally agreed upou. I asked for a postponement of eleven days. Mr. Corbctt was willing. Mr. Fltzslm mons was not. To my offor to add a purso of $10,000 on tho heels of Fltzslmmons' proposition to moot Corbctt In private on Oct. 31 Mr. Julian, acting for Fitz simmons, domurred. Ho would have tho contest tako plneo on Oct. 31 or not at all. I contended that if it was worth Fltzslm mons' while to light on Oct. 31 It woro better to wait olovon days and win 110,000 more. , "My offer Is now permanently with, drawn. I nm unwilling to beliovo that any fair proposition will meet tho ap proval of Fltzslmmons. I havo no partic ular liking for tho prosent champion, yet I must accord him that which is his duo. Ho saw tho plight in which tho Florida Athletic club was placed and appeared willing to accommodate himself to cir cumstnncos. Mr. Fltzslmmons may or may not bo ablo to comprehend tho situa tion, and his personal actions I would not attempt to crltlclzo." In tho supremo court, at LtHIo Rock, yosterday Attornoy General Klusworthy presented a petition for an order re straining tho proposed fight from taking placo pending a hearing of tho caso on its merits. Attornoy Martin asked for further time, und tho hearing of this motion was thereupon adjourned until today. Should tho restraining order bo granted tho caso will probably not como up for n hearing on its merits until somo time next spring, relieving tho governor of further responsi bility. In tho ovent that tho order bo re fused Governor Clnrko Intimates that he might convene tho legislature to pass a felony net. It is given out that Julian will have Fltzslmmons in Dallas on tho 31st, where tho contract stipulates tho fight shall oc cur, and claim tho forfeit of B,500.

One Miner Instantly Killed and Another , Dangerously Injured. I ROCK FALLS IN MAPLE HILL I The Unfortunate Men Wore at Work Shovoling Away Debris From Under the Treacherous Mass When It FeU Without Warning. Thoro was an accident In tho workings of tho Maple Hill colliery hist night by which 0110 miner was instantly killed and another dangerously injured. A third man working on tho shift escaped injury, although ho was close to tho victims when tho accident oc curred. The man killed was Albert Defrohn, who resided at 218 Wont Coal street. The injured man is Anthony Rulmls, a Lithu anian, residing on Xortli Plum alloy. Defrohn and llulmis were contractors on the night shift driving what is known as No. 1 plane of tho slant gangway, lloth mon were under tho top rock, shoveling out the loose stuff to George Matchulis, tho laborer, who was shoveling the debris into a car. Tho intention was to clear fho placo and mako ready for another shot. It was be tween seven nnd eight o'clock. After tho miners had shoveled for somo time tho top rock fell without warning. A solid mass fell upon Defielm, throwing him down upou his face and crushing the life out of him. Death must havo been instantaneous. Ilubnis, tho Lithuanian miner, was fortunate, but suf fered considerably. He escaped tho bulky mass and was covered by smaller pieces, lie was not as close to the faco as Dufrohn was. Matchulis, who was not working under tho top, but closo to tho opening under it, es caped tho fall and did not receive a scratch. Matchulis hurried out after tho full occurred and summoned assistance from the main gangway. Willing hands were soon at work and Hubnis was pulled from beneath the debris in a half smothered condition. Efforts to get Dofrohn's body out failed for a time. Tho piece of rock that pinned it down was so heavy that tho united efforts of nine men could not move it. Tho men wero obliged to break tho rock in nieces to get tho body out. An examination of the I remains showed there were no outward indi cations of mutilation, llulmis' right leg was crushed below tho knee and his body was badly contused. It is believed he is injured internally. llulmis was sent to tho Minors' hospital this morning. Albeit Defrehn was 3S years of age. Ho is survived by a wife, hut no children.
