The order granting the injunction was vcrv Iiriti, the judge limply stating that in his opin ion "glove contests" wire not violative of the law of Florida, which lorbids "fighting by previous appointment." Before The Flitht. Jacksonville, Fin., Jan. 23. At day break the rain was pouring in torrents and the early ntcrs felt that the fates and the elements were dead against the financial success of the Duvul athletic club in "pulling off" theCorbitt-Mitchcll fight according to schedule, The hour announced for the men to appear in the ring was 1:30 p. m., and the report got started early in the forenoon that by that time the arena would be flooded because the roof was only a sham affair, something in the nature of a protection from the rays of the sun. This, of course, was not wi 11 calculated to help the sale ol tickets, but in spite of it the Duval quarters were crowded from 9 o'clock up to 11:30 with eager seekers after the costlv pieces of paper which would take the holders to the ring side. The streets were crowded with strangers; every hotel and boarding bouse was lull to overflowing with guests last night, and hundreds of pri vate residences had to be called upon to shelter the strangers. Along Bay street for seven blocks every b;irroom was jammed full ol spur, ing men, and men and boys blocked the d or ways and all street corners. Despite the steady rain that was fulling, at li-e pool rooms the hnarsc voice of sellei s could lie luard far out on the street as tliev arose rcirularlv above the din and clatter of bar busi ness. Sports were unusually t'tnid about putting their money un. There was very lit lie going out on either of the tu:;ilils At the Gl"lc ells' po d sellers still keot offering the chestnut ''100 to 1-0" on Corbctt and occasionally a venturesome man would pu'l out a little ui )ney.

Dave Johnson ol New York put up 8700 lor Mitchell against $2,000 on Corbctt on result ol the light, and there were di .ens ol wagers in varying nnwuuts that the lvnglishmnn would stav in the ring lor UO rounds. A well kuown Boston sport, in maki.ig a bi t of this kind, e xplained that he based it upon his confidence in Mitchell being able to run away fro in CorlKtt tor that so -ice ol time, "but il he allows himself to be hit a lew times by the American champion," continued; the speaker, "he cannot stay lor 10 rounds even." Bv 1 1 o'clock nearly every caniage in town was in cotnm ss;on and . hey began bearing eastward toward the arena through the deep mud and water, their occupants blowing great cloudsol smoke Irom the winnows that gave the caval cade somewhat the appearance of roar ing volcanos. The sensation of the morning was the charge of $20 each to nil press represent atives ana correspondents lor "('mission to the arena. The rumor has been cur rent for two days past that this uoult be on the program, but very few be icved it.

Melvin Udmondson Carter is ex pected to assume charge of the office of collector of internal revenue for this dis trict on the first of February. Collector Carter's blank bond was re ceived by yesterduy afternoon's eastern mail. The bond was prepared this morn ing and was taken this afternoon by special messenger, Duff Merrick, esq., to Judge Dick at Greensboro for approval. The bond is the collector's official bond, and is for $100,000, to be justified in double the amount. This one, however, is justihed lor $275,000, simply for "good measure." The bondsmen are some of Ashevillc's most prominent business men who voluntarily became Collector Car- ter's sureties and who have no favors to ask. There is another bond, known as the disbursing bond, for $40,000, to be lustihcd in twice that amount, which wdl be made up after the collector takes charge ol the oliice. A telegram to Collector Carter from the department lust evening staled that if there were no delav in the oreoaration of the bond, the office could be transfer red to him on the evening of Tanuarv 31. As there has been no delay it is likelv that February 1 will see the new collector installed in oflice. AN INTERENTINn CAPE. OrclMlou In The Penland Case lu Criminal Court.

He pleaded former conviction and this was sustained, ludge Jones ordered that notice issue to Patrolman Ycutmnn, who sworeout the city warrant, to appear today and show cause why he should not lie taxed with the costs in the case, In the case of Jacob Stevens, charged with retailing liquor without license in the city, it was claimed by the defense that the city had no jurisdiction.

Killing of F.d Davis' wife and iil' Mulclde Monday Nlirni- The Greenville, S. C, News of Wednes day contains an account of the killing ol I he w ile of Ivd. Davis and Davis' suicide in that city Monday night or Tuesday morning. Mrs. Davis, who was the step-laughter of Tecumseh Hamilton of Asheville, was murdered with an nxe while in bed. Davis committed suicide by drowning himself in a well. The News eavs Davis butchered his wife, although the coroner's jury rendered a verdict that she came to her death bv wounds inflicted with an axe bv the hands of some person or persons unknown to the jury. Davis was, the News says further, one of the Iks; known and most populur negroes in Greenville. There is a strong suspicion among the colored people tnat some one else is involved in the tragedy, and that Davis, as well as his wile, was a victim.
