El Paso, Tex., Feb. 10. T5ol Fllzslm
mons and Peter Alaher will meet in tho
ring in spito of official action, nnd there la
rtroug probability that several of tbeother
carnival events will take place. Dan
Stuart so declares, nnd the preparation
nro going on as though no bar had been
placed upon the events.
The only effect of the action nt Wash
ington has bsen t niiiko the promoter
uml his associates m-iro secretive in to tho
plans. Saturday nnHi of tho parapher
nalia for the mills was tnlccn from this
city. Great euro was taken to) keep tho

..... -.s-i-itr intu Mexico, nt a
point north of hero.
.. ... ..it Mabey, of Texas, gal
loped Into th? city yesterday at tho head of
n company of twelve Texas rangers. Their
arrival causeda stir until it became known
that the object of their vb.lt was to sea
that the tights did not tnke plnce on Texas
soil. When the troop found tero was no
likelihood of It being called into action tho
individual rangers expressed an intention
of being spectators. Tho lights may tako
place at any time, although they aro not
likely to brought off for at least forty-eight
houra.
Last night Jlnrtln Julian received the
following cablegram from London:
"Should the contest not take place, nnd
there Is no chance to pull it off, the Na
tional Sporting club of London will post
5,000 for a twenty round fight. Wire
acceptance or dcclinntion to A. Lumlcy,
Now York."
AVlien Julian opened this message he
crumpled It up and said indignantly:
"Well, what do you think of that? Hero
we arc, fighting to a finish for a cheap
purse, and taking chances against sol
diers, when we might pull tills off in the
best sporting club house in the world and
get i lot of money out of it."
Julian seemed very much out of sorts,
and in view of tlio message from London
bo will evidently not be broken hearted if
the contest is preveuted nnd the big fight
driven from this hemisphere tu London.
Kltzslmmons took a run of ten miles
yesterday behind a bucklionid driven by
Jullun. Thii return to bis training quar
ters In Juarez, Mexico, was innile through
here, and tho pugilist was the object of all
eyes as he clung to tho rear of tho vehicle,
which Julian drove nt a smart pace. Jerry
Jlarshall took a long walk, breaking Into
run now and then.at Las Crazes. Tho other
fighters booked for carnival events also
took their usual exercise. All have been
notified to continuo work, that they may
be called upon at nny time to enter the
ring.
At a meeting of Dan Stuart and his
lieutenants yesterday it was decided that
on the day of the big fight Hat Mnstcrson
will be given charge of tho train, ami will
have a hundred men under his orders.
Jim Bates was given charge of the equip
ment, and Secretary Wheeloek was matin
muster of transportlon.
Governor Ahumnda, of tho state of Chi
huahua, nrrlvcd at Juarez last evening,
and the story nt once spread around that
he had come to prevent tho fight taking
place. Ho laughed when asked if such
was the case, and declined to discuss the
fight in any way. He had, he said, de
clared himself once, and that was enough.
