It has finally been decided that the Duval Athletic Club of Jacksonville, Fla., be com- pelled to turn into cash the check Referee John Kelly holds in trust for the winner of the big fight. Kelly yesterday waited on Jim Corbett at the latter's training quarters at Mayport, and had a long talk with the champion, Brady and Delaney. Kelly show- ed the check he held and remarked that he had heard that Mitchell had entered a pro- test against fighting for a piece of paper which by injunction could be tied up and made unavailable. Kelly stated that he did not care to take part in a transaction which might terminate as Mitchell feared. He had no doubt as to the sincereity of the club in the matter, but he wanted both of the prin- cipals satisfied before he left for the scene of the contest. He then flatly put to Corbett the question: “Are you satisfied to fight for the purse in its present shape?” ‘The champion thought the matter over for @ moment and then answered: “I am satisfied with anything that Mr. Mitchell is. If Mitchell wants the check converted into cash, it is his privilege. I see no reason why it should not be done. It is not an unreasonable demand, and it will tend to promote confidence in the contest. I shall back up Mitchell if he insists that the money be put up.” Mitchell does insist, and there is nothing for the club to do but to comply with the demand, which the sporting men agree is the only proper thing to do. It is argued that if the club {is “on the square,” there can be no objections interposed to the proposition, which carries with it nothing more than does the provisional indorsement on the back of the check, save that the money must be in the hands of the referee when he enters the ring, to be turned over to the winner at the conclusion of the battle. Tonight W. A. Brady, representing Cor- bett, and “Bat” Masterson, on behalf of Mitchell, will take-Referee Keliy before the club and make a formal demand on the for the cash. The arrangements for the fight are about completed, although the location is still kept secret by the club. In order to bewilder the mind of the “hoodlum,” who is incidentally | arriving very strongly in straggling num- bers, its emis: jes have given out a dozen or more places where the fight might be pulled off. The guessing ones are at their wits’ ends as to the location, and many and ludicrous are the methods employed in order to get tips. It has been decided to spirit the principals away with their parties some time Wednes- day afternoon. Each will be furnished with @ special train consisting of a Pullman but- fet car and engine and pulled away toward a common center by circuitous routes. The most plausible theory is that the men will be taken to a point north of the city, near a neck of Georgia lands, which puts quite a distance between two strips of Florida ter- ritory. The start will be made early in the morning, before sunrise, it is intimated, in order to give the fighters as much time as possible in which to effect a finish. tee On Saturday night the body of a dead in- fant was found at South Capitol and K atreels. DUTY OF THE STATE. Berlin’s Unemployed Say That It is to Furnish Work. REINFORCEMENTS REPORTED AT Elo, Reported Assassination of Ex-King Milan. GENERAL FOREIGN MATTERS. ———__+—_—_ BERLIN, Jan. 22.—About 9 o'clock this morning streams of unemployed workmen began to pour in the directions of the halls, where meetings had been called for today. The five places in which the meetings were held were filled to their utmost capacity. The following named socialist members of the reichstag presided at the meetings: Herren, Singer, Schmidt, Vogtherre, Lieb- knecht and Fisher. The proceedings in each of the halls be- gan at noon. The police were present in great force, but were stationed out of view of those in the halls. The demeanor of the crowds was excellent. The men who were not able to find places in the halls were allowed to assemble in groups in the Streets, the police making no attempt to interfere with them. . At all the meetings the proceedings were about the same. Resolutions were adopted declaring that the government ought to begin immediately the construction of pub- He works in order to benefit the unem- ployed. The resolutions also declared that eight hours should be a maximum day's work for all government workmen. The conduct of the police in attacking the unemployed workingmen last week at Friedrichshain was denounced. The anarchist Gumplowicz, from Zurich, who has before been mentioned in these dispatches as taking a part in the agitation among the unemployed, made an address at one of the meetings, in which he made an attack upon the government. Gumplowicz was outspoken in his advoca- cy of anarchism and his denunciation of all governmental authority. After he had spoken for a few minutes two policemen stepped upon the platform and placed him under arrest. There was no excitement among the audience, Herr Liebnecht, the chairman at this meetirg, made an address after Gumplo- wicz was taken away. His remarks were entirely academic. The proceedings ended quietly. DISARMING THE SICILIANS. Taking Me: res to Prevent Any More Disorder. Copyright, 1894, by the United Press. ROME, Jan. 22.—Dispatches from Paler- ™mo state that the disarming of the work- ingmen and peasants of Sicily is proceed- ing in an orderly manner. The Sicilian senators held a meeting in Rome yesterday and debated measures for the relief of the poor of the island. They concurred in the opinion that the govern- ment ought to take decisive action, for the reason that after the decree establishing a State of siege in Sicily is annulled many of the land owners who, under fears of revo- lution, had modified their contracts with peasants, will refuse to stand by the modi- fications they ‘nade. Everything is quiet today in the Carrara district. Altogether about three hundred anarchists have been arrested there. At the reopening of the chamber of dep- uties. Prime Minister Crisp will not wait for interpellations to be made, but will at once report to the chamber the exception- al measures that have been adopted by the government to meet the danger of insurrec- tion. Fle will state that the preparations for a rising were made some time ago, and will produce the documents proving that such prepartions had been made. REPOR'?S OF REINFORCEMENTS. It is Said That 5,000 Troops Have Joined Mello at Rio. LISBON, Jan. urther details from insurgent sources have been made public regarding the movements of Gen. Saraiva, who, as told in these dispatches of yester- day, was said to have arrived in Rio Ja- neiro bay with reinforcements of 8,000 troops for the insurgents. This force is said to have arrived at Rio! Janeiro on the night of January 15. fore leaving Parana Gen. Saraiva is said to have seized 2,134 rifles,200,000 cartridges, two Krupp guns and ammunition for them and W,000 in cash. All the seized ar- ticles, together with the cash, were turned over to Admiral de Mello, who gave Gen. Saraiva a réceipt for them. ‘The following incident, also from an in- surgent source, is given to illustrate the treatment accorded government troops by some of their officers: A private in Rio Janeiro was severely wounded by a shell that had been fired from Fort Villegagnon, which is held by the insurgents. As the missile struck him, tearing flesh and crushing bone, the man gave a loud cry that was heard by an of- ficer standing close to him. An officer, who had his sword in his hand, turned on the wounded man and dispatched him. The comrades of the man thus foully murder- ed sprang upon the officer and would un- doubtedly have killed him had it not been that another shell fell into the struggling crowd and exploded. Five of the men were killed by this shell, and the others then re- turned to their posts. Be- No News of Importance. Admiral Benham and his big American fleet are not at Rio de Janeiro for the special purpose of arbitrating the differ- ences between the Peixoto government and the Mello insurgents. The officials of the State and Navy Departments are willing to admit that much concerning the adminis- tration’s Brazilian policy, but further than that they will not go. Arbitration can be reached only by the joint action of the two parties, and, from latest accounts, neither is prepared to accept such a solution of the trouble. The administration has kept its purposes in this matter from the public, but it has leaked out that it is greatly in- terested in the speedy establishment of peace in Brazil and that it will use its best endeavors to bring about that result, care- fully avoiding, however, any appearance of transgressing international Jaws or diplo- matic usages. It is, therefore, likely that Admiral Benham will act the part of a me- diator rather than that of an arbitrator. He will endeavor to bring the war to a close, so it is said, but will act so as not to aid or interfere with primary object is the prote can interests, and ction of Ameri- American commerce. it is known that European governments are greatly dissatisfied with the situation at Rio, and that they can be counted upon to assist in any movement looking to a peace- ful settlement of the questions at issue on an honorable basis. The United States has gone to great expense in concentrating a large fleet of war vessels at the Brazilian capital, and will feel that its efforts have been wasted if the strife is prolonged very much longer. A cable message was received at the Navy Department this morning announcing that Lieut. T. B. M. Mason, executive of the New York, is ill, and has been invalided home for treatment. The telegram makes no reference to the political situation at | Rio, and it is therefore assumed that there has been no change of importance. ALEXANDER NOT MURDERED. Reported Assassination of Milan, Ex- King of Servia. BELGRADE, Servia, Jan. ‘The re- port that King Alexander had been assas- sinated is without foundation. He is ac- tively employed in seeking to end the crisis now prevailing here. Acting under the advice of his father, he is endeavoring to obtain a coalition ministry. BERLIN, Jan. 22.—At a meeting of the budget committee of the landtag today Councillor von Mossow stated that he had received information from Belgrade that | ex-King Milan had been assassinated last night. No official confirmation of the re- port has been received, and it is generally considered to be nothing more than an either party. His | that can be best sub-| served by reopening the ports of Brazil to echo of the report recently circulated that King Alexander had been killed. PARIS, Jan. 22.—Four hundred and fifty offices where, under the new law, the 4 1-2 Fer cent rentes may be exchanged for 3 1-2 Per cents, were open yesterday for the pur- pose of receiving acceptance of the low interest-bearing securities from holders of the 4 1-2 per cents. Two-thirds of these offices have reported to Finance Minister Burdeau that they neither received depos- its of bonds for conversion nor applications for repayments. M. Floquet's Iiness. PARIS, Jan. 22.—Ex-Minister Floquet,who was recently elected a senator, is suffering from influenza. Count Muen, the well-known leader of the conservative rallies, who was defeated in the general elections for members of the chamber of deputies, was returned yester- day by the electors of Morlaix. The British in Sierra Leone. LONDON, Jan. 22.—A dispatch from Free Town, Sierra Leone, states that the British expedition under command of Col. A. B. Ellis, which was sent out against the Sofas, returned to Free Town yesterday, the work of the expedition having been accomplished. The interior of the country is now quiet, 7 Dublin Suspects Leave for America. DUBLIN, Jan. 22.—Nolan and Mearns, the men who were arrested on suspicion of having murdered Patrick Reid, who it was said had knowledge of a dynamite con- spiracy here, have started for America. Nolan and Mearns were recently discharged from custody, the crown not being able to produce evidence that would warrant their being held for trial. Foreign Mention. Emperor William invited Count Herbert Bismarck to attend yesterday's decoration ceremony at the castle. The kaiser will be thirty-five years old on Saturday next, and the anniversary of his birth will be celebrated with great eclat. The Gallia arrived at Queenstown this morning with damaged machinery. She proceeded for New York at 10 o'clock. John Redmond, addressing a meeting at Roscommon, Ireland, yesterday, said that he would demand the appointment of Irish representatives on the committee to inquire into the financial condition of Great Britain and Ireland. ———> ASSAULTED BY McKANE’S MEN. The Story Told by an Agent of the Brooklyn Reformers. NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—Frank P. Cottrell, @ young man living in Brooklyn, paid a visit to Gravesend on Saturday night, and, if the story he tells be true, he was the vic- tim of an outrage at the hands of several of “Boss” John Y. McKane’s henchmen. The scene, from all accounts, was similar to that at Gravesend on election day, when a number of men went to that place to per- form a duty delegated to them by the courts and were assaulted by McKane men. It was in connection with the election day occurrences that Mr. Cottrell visited Grave- send on Saturday night. He went there as the representative of the committee of twenty-five which ts now pushing the cases against McKane and his indicted followers, for the purpose of serving subpoenas on Capt. John E. Hinman of the Coney Island police force and Isaac Ring, a resident of Gravesend. Both of these men were wanted as witnesses in court today. On reaching Gravesend, Mr. Cottrell, as he states, stopped at the saloon of Florence Donovan, ex-member of the state board of arbitration, to inquire where the patties of whom he was in search could be found. He claims he was immediately recognized by John W. Murphy, ex-president of the Coney Island Athletic Club, and ‘Mort” Morris, | who were in the saloon. Murphy and Mor-| ris, Mr. Cottrell claims, without any provo- cation whatever, gave him a terrible beat- ing, much to the amusement of the other n. men in the salo ‘Then they kicked him His subpoenas were taken from his pocket and he was thus prevented from carrying out the work which he went to the beach to Besides several bruises on his face, a black and blue mark, showing the print of a man's fingers, encitcles Mr. Cot- treil’s throat. | Florence Donovan, the saloon keeper, s: Cottrell was drunk and disorderly and tiat | there is no truth in his story McKane corroborated Donovan's state- ment of the case. COMPANY'S TERMS REJECTED. Railway Strikers at Bridgeport Re- solve to Continue the Fight. BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Jan. ~at 9 o'clock this morning a big crowd had col- | lected about the Traction Company’s stables in East Bridgeport, but there were no hos- tile demonstrations, and none of the strikers were there. The company made no attempt to send out cars, and officials of the road had not decided whether to do so or not. ‘The strikers, having received Col. Heft's Proposition to take back all men except nine, whose names have not been given, | declined it at a midnight meeting, and will probably decide upon a counteg pro- Position. The officials of the company will not meet the men, but are acting through the mayor and the police board. ‘The men demand that all be taken back, and then if there is any cause for discharg- ing the nine men, that they be given a chance to prove their innocence. They also insist that in the future they shall | not be discharged without being given a reason. The strikers number 117, and have | formed a union. —___. FILLETTE’S ESCAPADES. LIEUT. He Has Been Making More Evidence for the Court of Inquiry. PORTSMOUTH, N. H., Jan. 22.—The es- capades of Lieut. T. Glover Fillette, U. S. M. C., who 1s to come before the naval court of inquiry ‘at the navy yard on Tues- day, have created a sensation in naval circles in this vicinity. Several weeks ago Fillette went to Washington as a witness, and he did not arrive at the yard until several days after he was due there. His absence and the fact that his wife became insane over it caused comment at the time. Last week the Secretary of the Navy or- dered a court of inquiry to be held at the yard to investigate the conduct of Fillette. Since the hearing was ordered Lieut. Fill- ette has been involved In two disgraceful occurrences, On Friday a well-known cit- izen attempted to chastise the officer for an alleged insult to his young daughter, but a policeman interfered. Shortly after 4 o'clock Saturday morning two officers found Fillette in a Vaughan street resort engaged in a rough and tumbling fight with the proprietor. He was taken to station, but was afterward released and allowed to go to the yard. On learning the facts the commandant of the navy yard sent a non-commissioned of- ficer to this city to obtain written state- ments from the police and other parties, so the case could be reported to the Secretary ara aia ‘that Ident. Willette intends, if the charges are pushed against him, to prefer charges against some of his superior officers. See BURNED HIM AT THE STAKB. ourl Farmers at a Ne- sro’s Crime. AURORA, Mo., Jan, 22.—A twelve-year-old girl, the daughter of Mr. Jaquin of Vernon, Mo., was dragged to the woods, tied to a tree and assaulted by two burly negroes and was not found until 4:30 o'clock yes- terday afternoon. Fary of M One of the negroes 0 yesterday assault- ed the twelve-year-old daughter of Mr. Jaquin, near Vernon, Mo., after having dragged her to the woods and tied her to a tree was early this morning captured by @ posse of farmers and burned at the stake. —_ Powderly Would Not Have It. NEW YORK, Jan. 22.—A special to the Sun from Scranton, Pa., says: ©x-General Master Workman Powderly said in an in- terview yesterday that he has nothing to do with the alleged secret movement to se- cvre his reinstatement in office with the Knights of Labor, and that he would not take the place again if it were offered him. So Ex-Congresaman Calkins Dying. TACOMA, Wash., Jun, 22.—Judge Wm. H. Calkins, ex-Congressman from Indiana, who was defeated for governor of Indiana by Isaac P. Gray in 1884, is reported to be dying at his home in this city of a compli- cation of diseases. | Tailroad stations night and day for the ex- J national capital, MINISTER THURSTON. He is Back in Washington to Await Developments. EVERYTHING QUIET WHEN HE LEFY. What the Royalists Say They Are Waiting For. CHANGES EXPECTED. A characteristic story is told on a well- known scientific man of Washington, whose ideas are always among the stars and whose imagination is confined to the facts and figures that go therewith. Some years ago he attended the wedding recep- tion of a young relative. All the other guests were crowding around the bride to shower her with good wishes; the scientific gen- tleman aloné stood aloof, apparently lost in thought of things millions of miles away. “Why do you not go over and speak to the bride?” asked the great man’s wife. “Really, my dear, I do not know that I have any new facts to communicat And the great man again went off for a mental ride on his parallax. The same might be said of Mr. Lorrin A. Thurston, minister plenipotentiary and en- voy extraordinary from Hawaii to the United States. He is just back from a fiying trip to Honolulu, but with all that he has no new facts to communicate. So, at least, he told a Star man who called at the office of the legation in the Everett this morning. Mr. Thurston arrived in Washington Saturday evening, having been away from here only since December 2. Of this time two weeks were spent in Honolulu in consultation with President Dole and the powers that be. AM Quiet When He Left. Mr. Thurston reports that when he left the islands everything there was in a quiet state, although there was much sup- pressed interest and excitement caused by the delay of this government in consider- ing the Hawalian matter. To all appear- ances theHawaiian minister is not seriously concerned about the final outcome of af- fairs, and he expresses himself as confi- dent that the provisional government is Perfectly competent to take care of itseif, unless it is interfered with by outside Powers. According to Mr. Thurston, there | is now a bill before theHawajian legislature to separate the offices of president and minister of foreign affairs, and it is prob- able that Vice President Hatch will be ap- pointed to fill the latter position. Queen Lil. has by no means given up hope of re- turning to her dusty and moth-eaten throne, and she confidently expects that this government will officiate in the cere- monies of restoration. The provisional government has received offers from thou- Sands of men in the states, who are willing to go out and fight for the cause of lib- erty, and make themselves eligible to membership in some future society of the sons of the Hawaiian revolution. To all h offers a kindly and courteous answer hi , to the effect that the gov- ernment is in a position to do its own fighting, if there should be a real call to arms. These and other such subjects were touched upon in the conversation this morning. Minister Thurston is not a taciturn or Tepellant sort of man. He is one of the pleasantest men in the world to meet and when he has anything to say that he can say with propriety he says it cheerfully and nicely, but as a diplomat there are | others older in the service who might learn @ lesson from him in the matter of tact and discretion. He has never yet made the mistake of talking too much about matters of state, and the American government, which was such a stickler for secrecy until the whole affair was turned over to Con- gress, can have no complaint to make of the Hawaiian representative in this respect. Even the Chicago interview with him,made as he was hurrying through the windy city | on his way to Washington, has been char- acterized as a pure “fake.” The inierview | was a “turn down” by the minister, that | lasted Just about eighty-five seconds, and out of that the enterprising Chicago jour- nalist managed to weave an interesting talk that filled a column and a half. The Famous Cleghorn Fake. Speaking of this incident this morning, Mr. Thurston was reminded to speak of the famous “John M. Cleghorn fak. that also had its origin in Chicago at the time, last February, that the five commissioners from Hawaii were hurrying across the con- | tinent to urge upon this government the desirability of the immediate annexation of the Islands. This mythical Mr. Cieghorn was then brought full fledged into being and the story was hurried over the wires that this man as the representative of the interests of Princess Kaiulani was travel- ing by special train and at full speed to Washington in an effort to reach here first, and the idea spread that whichever party won the race and secured the ear of the excutive first would have it all his way. Newspaper men in this city watched the pected Mr. John M. Cleghorn, and fruit- less, watchful hours were spent in waiting for the man that never came. A year has elapsed and to all intents and purposes Mr. Cleghorn is somewhere betweeh San Fran ¢isco and Washington, for he has not reached here yet, though his spirit might seem to be active in delaying action upon the treaty of annexation. Great is Chi- cago! In the conversation this morning Min- ister Thurston was asked if there was any news from Hawaii. He said that there was rothing really to add to what had been contained in the rious press dis- Patches from Honolulu. ie center of in- terest just now,” he said, right here in Washington. It is curious how the news of importance has oscillated, coming first from Honolulu, then from this city, and so on back and forth. My peopie are waiting now to see what Congress is going to do. What there fs left for us to.do in case the American government decides against us is, of course, something I am not at liberty to discuss, It is easy to understand that pending a final solution of the problem the conditions of civil and socia! life are much disturbed, but the provisional gov- ernment has nothing to fear from any or- ganized internal force. If there is any trouble it will be caused by foreigners or outsiders or private violence. There is no probability of any action being taken by the royalists. What the Ro: ints Expeet. “They openly assert that they are waiting for the United States to take their part, and declare that Congress will authorize the use of force by the United States in order to secure the queen's re-establishment upon the throne. The royalist paper even got out an extra just before my departure from Honolulu insisting upon the truth of this statement. The natives are taking no part in the matter. They seem to be up in the air. I don’t believe that they would take any part in it under any circum- stances. Why, when it was rumored that troops were going to be landed they fiocked down to the wharf and sat with their legs dangling over in order to see the show.” In answer to a question from the re- porter, Mr. Thurston said: “The provisional government will take no action regarding the future of Hawaii until Congress, into whose nands the en- tire matter has been placed, takes action upon it, or indicates in an unmistakable manner what the result of its considera- tion will be. I received a dispatch from Honolulu by the Monowai, which reached San Francisco yesterday, that matters were aulet. It contained no further instruc- tions supplementary to those I received in person before I left.” ‘Will Remain Here and Wait. In conclusipn Minister Thurston said that it was his intention to remain now permanently in Washington. There did not seem to be very much for him to do, how- ever, but to wait and he was unable to say whether or not he would go before the subcommittee of the Senate committee on foreign relations to testify about the Ha- waiian matter. As yet he has received no intimation that his presence is desired by the inquisitorial solons. Searle Rev. John F.

The New York Ball Club has reopened its negotiations with the Washington club for the transfer of Catcher Farrell and Pitcher Meekin to the Giants. Some time ago President Wagner, when asked by the New York directors what he wanted for his battery, said $10,000. Negotiations with him were cut off at the time, but since then he has written to the club that he is willing to do business on a more reasona- able scale. Treasurer Talcott has been in constant communication with both Mr. Wagner and Manager Schmelz, with the resu:t that it is only @ question of dollars and cents now between the two clubs. If Mr. Wagner ac- cepts the New York club's latest offer 1 two players will go to New York and sign contracts. Mr. Talcott said cn Saturday that with Meekin and Farrell secured New York would consider itself ready to begin the season. The Boston Herald says that Arthur Irwin would give part of his «ight han} for Charley Farrell, and then intimates that Boston could find pienty of room for the “Duke of Marlboro’,” as Farrell was affectionately called by the old Players’ League and association cranks of the Hub. Charley would undoubtedly strengthen any club, and the Phillies especially couid find @ place for him, but the Washington ciub is in no position to let so good a man go unless he is made the basis of a deal which would add strength to the Senators. Une man eannot make a weak club strong, but @ club that is weak owes it to iis patrons to do nothing that will tend io make it weaker. Gus Schmelz will doubUess make @ trade with Boston for Farreli—say on the basis of Nash and Leng in exchange-and Boston would consent to do this when the devil had practical use for skates. So tar as the Phillies are concerned Manager Ir- Win is in no position to make an offer— outside of a cash one—that the Washingtons could afford to: accept. The chaaces are that Farrell will continue in his Senatorial capacity for another season. New York has signed Wm. Siurphy, the nimble shortstop of the Yale College team, He weighs only 123 pounds, is tive feet three inches in height and is said w be a “comer.” New York has also secured aa amateur in Westervelt, the New Jersey pitcher, who has pitched the Me Se nine into front rank for 5 years, New York has been after him .cr several years, but Westervelt always lacked ibe courage to face league baismen.

Both Ful- ler and Richardson have played short for the Washington team, and there has been good opportunity to compave their work. Barnie has given up hope of getting Rich- ardson for Louisville. Brooklyn wented too much in exchange. Richardson has been serving as a text for certain writers on the ephemeral greatness of ball players, and the very club that has olack-listed hina holds him so high that another club can- not secure him.
