Letter-Writing Contest.
New York. Oct. 2.—William Brady,
the representative of James ,T. Corbett,
in 1 the champion middleweight. Bob
Fitzsimmons, and his representative,
in t in the office of a morning newspa
per. Fit,•Simmons being there for the
purpo? -r depositing SI,OOO as a guar
antee <>t' good faith In his Intention to
fight Janus J. Corbett for a purse and
a side 1. t of SIO,OOO. Brady was there
t" deposit SI,OOO in behalf of Steve
O'Donnel, whom he was anxious Fitz
simmons should meet.
Fitzsimmons declined, however, to
consider Steve O'Donnt 1 In the matter
at all. Fitzsimmons said ho wanted to !
fight for the championship of the j
world, and Corbett was the man he
Y anted to fight to got that title.
The men could come to no terms, but
n fight on the spot was narrowly aver- j
ted. Addressing Fitzsimmons in angry j
and excited tones, Brady said:
"What a nice man you are to go ,
around the country saying that you'll
plant your gloves on Corbett's face." |
"I never said such an ungentlemanly j
thing. I deny it, explained Fltz. Every
one was on his feet, the talk was loud
and a sporting man did his best to get !
the men to moderate their tones.
"It's all over. You must retire from !
the place if you don't keep quiet," said j
another man, and then Brady, who I
•was getting more and more excited,
shouted to Arthur Lumlcy: "Corbett Is
the greatest lighter in the world, and
no man can say he is a cur."
"Yes he Is," said Lumlcy, as cool as
on Icicle.
"You can't prove It," yelled Brady at
the top of his shrill soprano.
"Yes I can," and Lumley rose to his
feet and moved In Brady's direction. !
and everyone looked for a row.
"You're a cur." roared Brady.
"You're another," said Lumley, and
then Charley White stepped in between 1
tiim and Capt. Glori apollglzed to the
newspaper folks for such an unpleas- 1
ant scene As Brady moved off to the j
front door in order to got out on Broad
way, he was heard to say:
"I won't let any gang do me."
Lumley asked him what kind of a
pipe he was smoking to lose his head In
such a fashion, but he disappeared
through the door and another chapter
wan added to the Fitzslmmons-Corbett
controversy. After leaving Manager
Brady, Bob Fitzsimmons Journeyed
down town and issued a statement ex
plaining his position. He said thut he
exported to become the champion by
default, and in that event would defend
It against one Stove O'Donnel. bantams
and heavyweights, and that his theat
rical engagements would never inter
fere with his defence of the title.
AGAIN SAYS NO.
Corbett's Latest Reply to Fit/.'s Chal
lenge for a Fight
Boston, Oct. 2. —The following letter
to Robert Fitzsimmons has Just been
mailed here by Champion Corbett:
Dear Sir:—ln reply to your communi
cation of to-day, I desire to state that
I am the champion heavyweight of the
World. I won that title, not by defeat
ing middleweights, but by battling with
every heavyweight that stood between
myself and John L. Sullivan. I dispute
your right to claim a battle with me I
nt the present time, because, while you i
are undoubtedly the best middleweight
In the world, your record gives you no ,
right to a place in my class. I propose
to enter the prize ring once more, and
then retire, whether I win or loose. I
want my next contest to be with the
best man in the world. I do not con
sider you that man, and I do not pro
pose to meet you, and then after hav
ing defeated you, be told by your
friends that you are only a middle
weight, after all. I care nothing for
the past history of the ring, or its ob
solete rules. My future is in my own
hands, and I do not propose to be told
by you, or any other man living, what i
lam to do. I consider Steve O'Donnel
a better man than you are, and he will
prove it when he meets you. If you
accept his challenge and defeat him.
then you will not have to worry much
about securing a contest with me. You '
pay that Steve O'Donnel is a fourth
rater, and that you are sincere in your
deslro to become champion of the
world. Then you should remove the
only obstace that stands between you
and me, especially when he is so easy.
I am prepared to post $5,000 with any
reputable man or newspaper in this
country, to be paid to you in case I re
fuse to fight you after you have defeat
ed O'Donnel. Mr. Brady has posted
SI,OOO with the New York Herald as
an evidence of O'Donnel's good faith.
You do not need to wait thirty days
for me to pay any attention to you, for
I do not propose to do s<. and, if you
are sincere, then you had better ar
range a match with O'Donnel at once,
for, the sooner you do, the sooner you
will open up the chance you seem to
desire so much (?), a meeting with me.

VICTORY FOR ROW MAN.
End of t lie Long Evangelical Church
War.
Reading, Pa., Oct. 2.—A victory for
the Bowmanites in the long Evan
gelical church war has been scored by
Bishops Esher and Bowman in the
supreme court. This decision ousts
the Dubs' faction from not only the
Reading church, which brought the
test case, but from the 210 or more
Evangelical churches in eastern
Pennsylvania alone. This is a final
decision and involves church property
worth about $1,000,000 and 460 preach
ers. The ease was argued before the
supreme court at Philadelphia, but
the decision was made at Pittsburg.
These lights have gone on in the lower
courts of Pennsylvania for several
years, and now all are ended as all
Involved the legality of the Indian
apolis conference. Bishops Bowman
and Esher were leagued against Bish
op Dubs. The whole question which
has caused a split in the Evangelical
church all over the United States
hinges upon the legality of the Indian
apolis conference.
The Evangelical association Is a re
ligious society existing in the United
States, Canada and part of Europe.
It consists of twenty-five annual con
ferences and a general conference
meeting every four years, and Is gov
erned by an organic law, entitled the
discipline. In 1887 the general confer
ence met in Buffalo, N. Y., and passed
a resolution, referring the place of
the next meeting to the board of pub
lication of the association. The de
fendants alleged that this was con
trary to a provision In the discipline
which provided that the time and
place of the general conference should
be appointed by the bishops and pro
visionally by the general conference
of the oldest annual conference. The
board of publication appointed Indian
apolis as the place of meeting, and
October l. 1891, as the time. Mean
while, Bishop Dubs, one of the digni
taries of the church, was tried for im
moral conduct and suspended. As a
matter of retaliation the friends of
Bishop Dubs commenced proceedings
against Bishops Esher and Bowman
and they were suspended. Eighteen of
the twenty-eight annual conferences
forming the society repudiated such
suspension, and went over to Bishop
Bowman. The Bowmanites held their
conference in Indianapolis according
to programme. Then their opponents
held another conference. Each fac
tion alleged that the conference held
by the other was Illegal and hence
the appointment of preachers made
were alleged to be illegal. Each con
ference appointed preachers for all
the churches in the land, making
just twice as many preachers as were
required. The supreme court decides
that the Indianapolis conference was
regularly and legally held.
Foreigners Unsafe in IVkin.
Fan Francisco, Oct. 2.—Mrs. Dear
born, for many years In the employ of

any foreign resident to go out unat

ants, they are hooted at, called all
sorts of names In Chinese and not in

barbarians are crowding into the city
from all sides and the authorities seem
to exercise little or no restraint in pro
tecting foreigners from abuse or as
sault.
Divorce for a Clubman's Wife.
New York, Oct. 2.—Justice Ingraham,

PERU'S NEW PRESIDENT.
Gen. Cacores* Military Experience Will
He of Service to I Urn Now.
Gen. Cacercs, who Ims just taken his [
seat as president of Peru, has held tho j
same position before with honor to him- :
self and advantage to his country. This
was from 1880 to 1890, after the humili
ation of Chili by Peru, and a very erit- '
ical period.
But he has won most of his renown '
as a soldier. Entering the service at
the age of sixteen (he is in his fifty
sixth year), he has seen a deal of hard
fighting and proved not only his valor
hut his exceptional military skill. Pro
motion he won step by step on the field j
of battle until he became head of the j
army.
Ills abilities as a warrior will stand l
him in hand now, for Gen. Pierola, who
is a renowned fighter, too, and has
likewise been president, is leading a re
volt already formidable. Pierola had j
been an exile, and his return a year |
ago was understood to mean another

revolution. He wanted to be elected
president, hut complained that Caceres
controlled the army and manipulated
the government so that he would have i
small chance at the polls. j
President Bcrmudcs died last March.
First Vico President del Solar was
afraid to assume the office, to which ho
would have succeeded. lie fled, and
Second Vice President Ilorgono took
tho chief magistrate's position. It is
said he was merely a marionette, and
that Gen. Cacercs pulled the strings.
Senor del Solar subsequently turned
up in the south of Peru, Gen. Plerola's
bailiwick, and a duplicate government
was set up there with Del Solar as the
figure-head and Pierola as boss.
Tho election resulted in a proclama
tion that Cacercs was elected president,
Cesar Canevaro (once Peru's minister
to the United States), first vice pres
ident, and Ccsareo Chaealtana, second
vice president. Pierola says tho electors
were bulldozed and ho does not pro
pose to submit to the announced re
sult. Caceres now takes his scat and
the merry war will go on between tho
ins and outs.

Important Bond Case,
j In the supreme court decisions hand
: ed down at Pittsburg this week the de
' creo of the Luzerne court in the matter
I of tho petition of the Lehigh Valley
I Goal Company to make roads in Plains I
, township was reversed. The coal com
j pany presented a petition to the court
for tiie right to make and repair roadß,
under the act of June 12, 1893, enabling
j the taxpayers of townships and road
districts to contract for making at their
[ own expense the roads, and paying sal
j aries of township and road district ofli
cers, and thereby prevent the levying
and collectingjof road tax thereon.
] The supervisors filed a demurrer on
the ground that the act was unconstitu
tional. It was argued that this law
would be productive of local results, and
therefore is a local law. This is that
some townships would take advantage j
of its provisions, while others would {
work under the old system. It is urged
also that the law is unwise and cannot!
result in tho improvement of the public
roads. Evan if this is so the supreme'!
court holds that the legislature and not i
| the supreme court must repeal it. The !
| constitutionality of this act does not I
seem to lie even doubted, therefore cor
i porations can repair township roads if !
j they so desire.
