Jacksonville, Fla., Jan. 23. "The
fight is practically off," said -W.. E.
Harding, tjie sporting editor of the Po
lice Gazette, this evening. This opinion
of Mr. Harding is based on the attitude
of the Governor, the trouble about the
check for that $20,000 and the misman
agement of the Athletic club in general.
Nearly every thoroughbred in the city
bias the opinion of Mr. Harding, that the
fight is practically off. It is understood
that Mr. Blake, who is the only member
of the club who knows a little about
prize fighting, is also of the-opinion that
the odds are 100 to 1 against the
Duval club pulling off the match. Of
course. the club people are still talking
fight they can always be depended , on
to talk, that is, Mr.Bowden can but
then gab does not pull off prizefights, at
least it does not when the Governor of a
State gets his back up and i quarters a
battalion of State troops in a city to see
that the fight does not occur; and that
is just what Governor Mitchell has done.
At 5:30 o'clock this afternoon the Sec
ond battalion of the State Guard, 200
strong, Maj. C. P. Lovell in command,
reached the city. The troops had to
march rearly the entire length of Bay
street, the principal thoroughfare of the
city, to reach their quarters. The side
walks were lined with hundreds of the
short-hajred gentry, and as the soldier
boys- went tramping past these people
broke out with hoots and hisses. - Bat,
steadily as veterans of the Old Guard,
the soldier boys marched on, looking
neither to the right nor the left nor giv
ing sign that they heard tho hisses. The
soldierly bearing of the soldiers had its
effect on the sports who lined the side
walks, and before the battalion reached
its quarters the hissing and hooting had
ceased. ' I
The battalion, is composed of four com
panies as follows: Company A, of Ocala,
Capt. McConnell; company B of Lees
burc. Cant. B. Smith; company C,' of
Orlando, Capt. P. Brewson, and com
pany D, of Sanf ord, Capt, C. D. Leffler.
The boys look every inch like soldiers.and
there is no doubt that, if ordered to do so,
they would use their guns, The battalion
has seen service, having been ordered to
Jacksonville, two years ago, to aid the
local troops in j quelling a riot. They
quelled it, too. They are known as
"Crackers," and know nothing save to
obey orders even if those orders are to

''Wait till you ! see tne wmtesoi ineir

Houston accompanied the battalion.
The hearing on the bill filed by the
club yesterday asking for an injunction
restraining Sheriff Broward from inter
fering with the contest came up before
Judge Call, of the Circuit court, at 10
o'clock this morning. The attorneys
for the club and State were on hand,
but Judge Call was asked by the repre
sentatives of the i State to postpone the
hearing until to-morrow in order to give
Attorney General Lamar, the highest law
officer in Florida, an opportunity) to be
present. The attorneys for the club
fought the motion for a continuance,
claiming that the Attorney General had,
had ample time to get here and that tne
elub wanted the matter settled immedi
ately, as continued doubt in regard to
the fight was very injurious. Judge
Call, however, granted the motion for a
continuance, and so the matter will be
disposed of to-morrow.
In spite of the statements by the club
people that they would accede to the de
mands of "Honest" John Ielly in regard
to the check for $20,000, they have not
vot done so. The string is stiu tiea
the purse. Perhaps it would

requires such a procedure for re
lief to apply t wherein damages are
irreparable, and does not pass on the law
question, then we will go ahead and
pull off the fight, where it will not be
interfered with in Florida woods."
If however the fight takes place day
after to-morrow in the woods Mr. Bow
den will have to eet a hustle on him. So
far, in spite of the club's confident talk,
very little preparation has been made
for holding the contest anywhere save
in Jacksonville.
Thoughtful people think that the hiss
ing of the troops is one ot the greatest
mistakes of the scores that have charac
terized this affair, j
The club -this morning received the
following telegram:! "Lord Percy Earl-
Bton and Sir Harold Weathersby will
arrive by special train Thursday. Hold
box." I. j
Bud Renaud, of New Orleans, reached
here thisevening. iHe has $10,000 to
put on Corbett at odds of two to one.
There is practically $0 betting, however.
Everything is waiting on Judge Call's
decision.
The club has decided, in event that
Judge Call decides in its favor to post

Washington, Jan. 23. The attendance
of Senators at the opening of to-day s
session was larger than usual, both polit
ical parties being pretty equally repre
sented. . .
Senator Turpie reported from the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations the follow
ing resolution: ' ' '
Resolved, That from the facts and
papers MaiJ "before the Senate, it is un
wise and inexpedient, under existing con
ditions,
to consider at this time any
project of annexation of the Hawaiian
territory! to the United States; that the
Provisional Government therein having-
been duly recognized, the highest inter
national1 interests require that it shall
pursue its own line of policy; that for
eign intervention in the political affairs
of the islands will be regarded as an act
unfriendly to the Government of the
United States. i
Senator Turpie said that the resolution
complied with the position of the com
mittee, save a dissent by the Senator
from Oregon (Dolph) as to the first sec
tion.' He had been ako directed by the
sentative of the State he advocated the
ameniment substituting the coal sched- '
ule of the McKinley law for the corre
sponding provision of the Wilson Dili ana
he asserted that putting coal on the free
list would not cheapen the product to
those people who lived west of the Alle-
ghenies and east of tne Kocmes.
Messrs. Oates, Wheeler ana lurpin, 01
Alabama, wanted a tariff duty on coal.
Mr. Turpin offered an amendment to
the substitute providing that the tax of
75 cents per ton should be decreased
124 cents a year and cease altogether
after the sixth year.
A vote was then taken on the amend
ment offered by Mr. Wise raising the
tariff to 50c and it was defeated by a
viva voce vote.
The vote was then taken on the amend
ment offered by Mr. Turpin, and it was
lost ayes 2, nays 172.

New York, Jan. 23. The sensation of
the day at the Stock Exchange was the
nhenomenal trading in American Sugar
and the big break in the price. Rarely
if ever, have such crowds been witnessed
at the board, and the " excitement at the
opening ran high. It was impossible to
get the first sale of the stock, the official
list making it 79 to 77, fully 8,000 shares
being sold at this range almost simulta
neously with the hrst beat 01 tne gong,
which declared business open for the
day. The break was no surprise, yester
day's vote by Congress, abolishing tke
bounty on sugar and placing refined on
the free list, accounting ior tne general
desire to sell. In the first thirty minutes
of business over 66,000 shares of
the stock were traded in and it can
safely said that of this amount fully one
half changed hands in the first ten min
utes of the session. After tne opening
the stock fell to 76 in one part of the
crowd, while in other parts 77 and better
was bid. Tbis will convey an idea or
the demoralized condition of the market
at the time. Later on, there was some
coverincr and a rally to 791. There was
also a little buying by room traders, wno t
figured that there was a chance for j
the reversal 01 tne iiouse action wneu
the Robertson amendmgnt came up for
final decision to-dav. When it was an
nounced that the House had'defeated the
amendment and had placed both raw
and refined sugar on the free list by a
heavy majority, the selling of sugar refin
ing stock was renewed and the price once
more touched 76. Near the close, arly
short sellers took in their contract8and
a recovery to 77 ensued. Ihe dealings
in the stock were on an enormous sale,
footing up 153,200 shares in a grand
total of 272,863 shares. St. Paul,"which

against 7.72 at the close yesterday. The
lowest price on this month was 7.67, and
the highest was 7.79. this showing a
range of 12 points. The market opened
with an advance 3 to 4 points, as com
pared with yesterday's closing prices of
from 8 to 5 points, owing to an advance
in the Liverpool market of 3 to 5 points.
This improvement was not held, and dur
ing the forenoon prices dropped to the
lowest point of the day.
The chief factor in the decline was the
heayy portward movement, which points
to receipts for the week of 155,000 bales.
Word was received from Galveston that
the Texas crop wiil probably be 2,100,
000 bales, The repeipts at Norfc-lk were
nw full nnH pxedded expectations, they
footing up 4,649 bales.
There was less "interest taken in the
market to-day than there has been for
some time past. There was fred selling
by longs, and local traders put oAt some
lines of short cotton. There is: a dif
ference in opinion as to the future move
ment, some claiming the receipts at the
ports will show a material falling off in
the near future, while others claim the
moment will continue about present
nrooortions for some time. Meanwhile,
there is a general hesitancy on the barti of
operators to enter into sextensivp deals
and the principal traders are apparently
adopting a waiting policy. U -

After the transaction of some routine
bqsiness in the House, Mr. Wise, of Vir
ginia, moved that the New York and
New Jersey Bridge bill, together with
the veto message, be referred to the
Committee on Inter State and Foreign
Commerce, which was done.
A motion was then made that the
House should go into Committee of the
Whole, but before the question was de
cided the House sought to unravel the
tangle in which it was placed by ad
journing yesterday without completing
the consideration of the sugar schedule.
A special order having been adopted last
Saturday, setting aside to-day, (Tuesday)
for consideration of the coal and iron ore
schedules, the House was undecided as
to whether that order should go into
effect at once or whether the sugar
schedule should first be completed. After
a quarter of ah hour had been spent in
the discussion, the Speaker ruled that
the sugar clause should be given right of
way.
The House then at 11:25 o'clock went
into Committee of the Whole, but the
committee was beset with shoals and
quicksands as the House was, and more
than an hour was spent in getting its
bearines. S Late yesterday afternoon an
amendment had been offered by Mr,
Robertson. Democrat, of- Louisiana, pro
viding for a duty of 1 cent per pound
and upwards for raw sugar, lo this,
Mr. Warner, of New York, had offered a
substitute, the effect of which was to
place all sugars, raw and refined, on the
free list, while the bounty is abolished
The House had adiourned without
acting upon Mr. Robertson's amend
ment, aitnougn it naa aaopteu
Mr. Warner's substitute. The question
was as to the status of Mr. Robertson's
amendment. It took an hour and three
quarters to "come to the conclusion that
Mr. Warner's substitute had displayed the
Robertson amendment. The Warner sub
stitute was then agreed to, and all sugar
waa made free and the bounty abolished.
At 1.05 o'clock the coal schedule was
taken m and Mr. Oates, of Alabama,
offered an amendment striking coal from
the free list and putting a duty of 40
cents per ton on it and 20 cents per ton
on slack.
Mr. Wise, of Virginia, offered an
amendment to this amendment, placing
the duty at 50 cents per ton.
fr. McKaieh. Democrat, of Maryland,
subinitted a substitute providing for the
retention of the present law 75 cents
per ton on. coal apq 30 cents pgr ton on
nlack.
Mr. Ray nor, of Maryland, made an
eloquent plea for free coal. He said he
tiolA a. rmsitinn antagonistic to his State,
which wanted a protective tariff on coal.
But he was not a Democrat in everything

would not see a duty put on coal and not
