ARRIVAL OF CORBETT AT CARSON The Champion Says, of Course, He's Confident of Winning. BOWLING BY LOCAL TEAMS Denials come from both the Philadelphia and the New York managements of the re- ported contemplated exchange of Rusie for Taylor and Clements. This is what the Philadelphia club officials say: “The statement made in several of the morning newspapers of an exchange be- tween the Philadelphia and New York clubs of Clements and Taylor for Rusie is without even a scintilla of truth. Last year the Philadelphia club was anxious to secure Rusie, and President Freedman said if he would trade Rusie the Philadelphia club should have the first preference. Since that time Mr. Freedman has reiterated Many times that he would not trade Rusie at all, and at the present time Col. Rogers has charge of the New York club's defense of the suit of Rusie brought in the United States court at Trenton to break the re- serve rule. Nothing is more unlikely than a trade in which Rusie participates; but if one were probable it is not likely that Man- ager Stallings, who would have to take charge of the deal, would let two such va!- uable players as Clements and Taylor go’ in return for what at present must be an anknewn quantity, if reports about Rusie’s condition are true. President Freedman said: “Under no cir- cumstances will I consider any such prop- osition from Philadelphia or any other club. The position I now hold is the one I have always maintained, and that is that’ Rusie will play with New York or not at al” “I have no bitterer enemy in the league than President Rogers,” said Rusie, “and it is strange that after talking about me as he has he should want me to play with him. Weil, I will not do it. My case against the New York Base Bali Club is pending in the New Jersey courts, and I will make no arrangements until after that is decided. I intend to be released from reservation and sign where: I please. I have begun to do light train- ing, and expect to be in better condition than ever next season.” CORBETT CONFIDENT, OF COURSE. Preparing to Make the Battle of His Life. CARSON, Nev., February 17.—Jim Cor- bett, accompanied by his brothers, Harry and Joe, has arrived here, and has gone to his training quarters. The champion was met at the train by nearly half the population of the city. Cor- bett informed the Associated Press repre- sentative that he would begin training at ence, using the hills and mountains as a course to run over. “This sudden change in altitude from the sea level to nearly 5,000 feet above,” said he, “is an experiment with me, and I am anxious to get to work and see what the effect will be, so I will get out as soon as possible. I have heard a great deal about this matter of altitude, but I can say noth- ing about it until I have been in training Iw self. He was then asked as to what changes in his training would be made. He said: “I have no reason to believe I should make any radical change in the mode of training I have always pursued. I will make no radical departure from that, except, as I understard it, my training quarters have been established where I may run on a level road or take to the hills. I believe now that running up and down these hilis will be a large part of my training.” Mention was made again as to his condi- tion, and to this question the champion declared that he will be prepared on March 17 to make the fight of his life. Confident?” he said. ‘Confident of win- ning? Of course I a but then so is the other man, for all that; but I feel sure that when the fight is ended I will be up. 1 ! probably be able to judge for my- do not think {t will be a very short con- test.” Julian arrived last evening and is in Fitzsimmons.

Goodrich at Ithaca. NEW YORK, February 17.—A special to the World from Ithaca, Y., says: Capt. Goodrich of the Harvard crew is in town to explain to the Cornell naval authorities the aquatic situation. Nothing has been announced as yet regarding Cornell’s prob- able action, but something will soon be de- clded. Many of Cornell's undergraduates look for a solution of the present rowing problem in a _ five-cornered regatta at Poughkeepsie, with Harvard, Pennsylvania, Columbia, Yale and Corneil as the con- testants. Shortly before the announcement of the Yale-Harvard agreement the Cornell Sun, the students’ daily, in an editorial strongly favored a quintangular race. Challenge to AI Wrestlers. PARKERSBURG, W.

A smoker was given at the High View Club, 1252 New Jersey avenue, last night, and the members of the organization and their friends that were present fairly crowded the structure from top to bottom.

A Divorce aud a Partnership Involved in a Case. The suit brought some days ago by Wal- ter H. Wills, the divorced husband of Nor- ma W. Jones, to restrain her from holding up in the post office here the mail address- ed to the old firm of W. H. Wills & Co., in which the parties in litigation were for- merly partners, came up before Judge Cox in th> Equity Court yesterday. In behalf of Norma W. Jones, her attorneys, Chapin Brown and BE. P. Ernest, set forth that their client had held up the mail addressed to the old firm of W, H. Wills & Co., in which firm she was a partner, until such time as an agreement could be reached as tc who should receive it in the future, or a receiver be appointed; that to avoid con- tention she had allowed all of her mail in these old cases to come through the office of W. H. Wills for the past six or seven years or since the partnership was dis- solved, but has recently found that this arrangement has worked irreparable injury to her business in many and various way: Among others, that in this way he ob- tained the names and addresses of a large number of her clients, tg which he sent his papers and circular ntaining “‘special notices,” calculated to throw into doubt ard disrepute the firm of N. W. Wills & Co., under which n&jme she has been con- ducting her business, since the dissolution of the old firm of W. H. Wills & Co. She prayed that a recetver might be appointed until she should file ther full and complete answer to the suit breught by W. H. Wills. She also denied that; W. H. Wills had given her $5,500, as he alleged, that being her in- terest In some propertyfowned ‘by them as tenants in common, jand, not sold until sev- eral years after the separation, when she Ead her just and Tapyfmi share; that the household furniture was left with her to offset the patent business, of which W.

SUNDAY NEWSPAPERS | Judge Kimball Upholds the Order of the Commissioners. QUOTES FROM RECENT DECISION Newsboys Cannot Cry Their Papers on the Streets. FUTURE PROCEEDINGS Newsboys will not be permitted to cry the names of newspapers Sundays here- after in the city of Washington. So ruled Judge Kimball today in the Police Court, in announcing his decision sustaining the right of the District Commissioners to frame and carry into effect a police regula- tion prohibiting the crying of papers on the day mentioned. The regulation has cavsed much comment and has met with vigorous opposition. Four newsboys were recently arrested for violation of the or- dirance and when the matter was heard Saturday in court it was contended that the Commissioners were without authority to pass such an order. The court reserved his decision until today. The matter, said Judge Kimball, was one that could not be governed by sentiment. It must be determined by law. A case recently decided by the District Court of Appeals involved the identical questions that were raised in the newsboys’ case. ‘Two railroad engineers were fined in the Police Court for failing to stop their trains at certain street crossings, as required by the Commissioners. By habeas corpus proceedings the case was carried to the upper court, it being contended that the regulation was unusual and irregular and that the Commissioners were without power to pass it. The Court of Appeals upheld the Commissioners in the making and enforcing of the regulation. “The decision of the Court of Appeals, said Judge Kimball, “settles this case. He then read the joint resolution of Con- gress approved February 26, 1892, 2s fol- lows: “That the Commissioners of the Dis trict of Columbia are hereby authorized and empowered to make and enforce all such reasonable and usual police regula- tions, in addition to those already made under the act of January 26, 1897, as they may deem necessary for the protection of lives, limbs, health and comfort and quiet of all persons, and the protection of all property within the District of Co- lumbiz Court of Appeals Decision. Judge Kimball quoted from the Conrt of Appeals decision as follows: “The conten- tion on behalf of the appellants that the resolution of February 26, 1892, confers no new powers not authorized by the former act, and must be limited by construction to such other and further regulations cnly as may be of the class enumerated therein, is without foundation. “The resolution is so general and so com- prehensive in {ts terms that had it been incorporated into the act of 1SS7, as the conclud'rg clause of section 10, its opera- tion could hardly be limited by the scope of the specific gran‘s of power preceding it. But, enacted after five years of ex- perience under the old law and in express addition to the powers therein conferred, we think it clear that Congress intended thereby to increase tne powers of the Com- missioners to the full extent of those fre- quently, if not generally, inirusted to municipal corporatioas. Upon no other ae reasonably ac- d of entering into act, the gray and reasoi expressed in the police regulations v broadest terms.” Continuing, Judge Ki Cecision: “Whilst doubted power to ina’ ableness of munizinal pall read from the courts have un- » into the reason. regulations t free exer: of the crdinary erson and property, when sought ed, they will not declare them invalid, save in plain cases of usurpation of power or of abuse of retion. “The use of ail property, more especially that situated or used in the public streets, is subject to the exer rezsonable police sup: tion, for the protection of the public health and safety. And waat = ind what may not, be a reasonable requirement in ene case cannot be determined by « tlxed rule applicable alike to all, but must, of reces- sity, depend upon special circumstances and the exigencies of the situation to meet which the regulation may have been adopted. Every such regulation may be, and often is, inconvenient, burdensome and oppressive in a certain sense, but it does not follow that, by reason of such consequences alone, it must be declared beyond the power and discretion of th> legislative authorities. Regulations ap- parently far more burdensome than this have been declared by the Supreme Court of the United States not to be unreasonable or in violation of private rights, “Now, in a case where the question of the invasion of private rights is one more of law than fact, or where the facts are sus- ceptible of reasonably certain proof, cours may give slight weight to the judgments of the municipal authorities, and presume lit- tle in their support beycnd good intentions and integrity of action in the premises. But in a case like the present, where the question is one of practical fact, unsettled by experience, and resting in opinion, a court should surely hesitate to set up its judgment in opposition to that of the mu- nicipal officers, who, by virtue of their training, observation and experience in the performance of their duties, ought to be well informed and capable of arriving at satisfactory conclusions in such matters. “As it is, however, we have no satisfac- tory proof that would justify us in overrul- ing the action of the Commissioners in the course of a duty imposed upon them and intrusted to their special discretion, and in the discharge of which they must be pre- sumed to be actuated by the only motives that should control the conduct of public officers. “The Commissioners had the authority to make the regulation in question,” said Judge Kimball, in conclusion. “The rezu- lation is within the power of the Commis- sioners, is legal and is one that ought to be enforced.” Future Proceedings. Maj. J. McDowell Carrington, who ap- peared for the defendant newsboys, inti- mated the possibility that the case might be taken to the upper court by habeas corpus proceedings. He did not care to act, however, until he could consult with Gen. William Birney, who was directly in- terested in the case, and who was not pres- ent in court today. It was agreed that the matter be disposed of so far as the Police Court is involved Friday next. In the event that counsel for the defendants desire to carry the case further, the court will prob- ably impose a fine. If it is concluded to abide by the decision of Judge Kimball the boys will probably be released on their Personal bonds, as the cese zgainst them was the first brought’ under the new regu- lation and was in the nature of a test of the ordinance. ——— HONOR TO GE! CLARKSON, The Commander of the Grand Army Present in Washington. Gen. T. S. Clarkson, the commander-in- chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, spent today, like yesterday, in visiting Prominent G. A. R. men about town and calling on old friends at the Capitol and the departments. His visit is intended more as a social than an official one. He will attend the annual encampment of the Department of the Potomac at G. A. R. Hall tonight, and there deliver an address to his old comrades. Preceding the encampment he will be tendered an informal reception. After the evening session of the encamp- ment there will be a banquet in Gen. Clark- son’s honor at the Ebbitt House.

Now that bicycling has become so popular with middle-aged and elderly people, a word ot advice—not advertising the Columbia—is not out of place. Young people are not often seriously injured by a tumble caused by some defect in a “cheap” wheel, but with older people, and, indeed, with children, it is very different. Therefore the best and strongest made wheel should be selected with the greatest care. For another reason, too. The good wheel, while costing more, will outlast three poor ones.
