The hard work has been dono by both. Attention will be given to bracing up their wind from now on.

He has dropped over forty pounds 1n weight sinca then. This has been removea for the most part from under bis belt and collar, Sullivau's complexion is better than it has boen in years.

Wit Gontl Jim is Doing. Corbett is still down at Loch Arbor, com- fortably located in a private cottace 1 plain sight of 0ld ocean. Kumors havo been afloat ever sinco ho hns been training that he was not paying attention to business. These rumors wero for the most launched forth for advertising purposes. (Corbett has too much senso to do half the things that he has been reported s doing, even 1f he was training for an ordinary match. Wher: Corbott steps in the ring he will be in as good condition as he knew how to get nimself in. His ono groat Jault has been overconfitenco. Ho is 5o sure that be can whip Sullivan that be may nave left undone some things, but still this” may have worked just the opposite. Corbett’s method of training has not been 10 take off weight or put much on. Ho has worited to hurden his muscles, increase his agility and power of endurance. In all theso points he has succoeded admirably. Corbett, will leave for New Orleans on a special train from Asbury Park September 1. He will have facilities in the baggage car t0 train enroute, He will tako a large quantity of drinking water sonth with him: also enough food to feed u military company. He will arrive in New Orleans September 3, While Corbett's spccial train is speeding toward the Crescent City another svecial will be bounding the same way. This will rontain Suliivan and his friends. Sullivan will have a miniature gymnasim fitted up in one of the cars, so that he may keep tho Long Istand bioom on mis cheeks without much trouble. He will have a Jarge supply of water on hand, taken from the Shnnecock hills, 50 that he need not be bothered by chango of water. He oxpects to arrive in New Orleans September 3 also. Pugilist James J, Corbett’s entertainment in Miner's Nowark (N. J.) theater last night was a financial and pugilistic success. Tho muscular and agile Californian was given a roception that must havo made his heart +hrob with joy and showed that he had hun- dreds of adiirers in the factory city. Corbett Exhibltio After the house had shouted itself hoarse, Manager Bradley announced that Corbett would wrestle with McVaighe to give the audience an opportanity to gauge *Jim’s" strength and tfine physical condition. The bout. which lasted five minutes, was very soirited and showed *Jim” off to ' good ad- vantage. McVaighe weighed 223 pounds und stood six feot oue ivch in noight. Do- spite McVaighe's decided advantage in weight, Corbett pulled and threw the Phila- delphfun about hike a school boy would a base ball. It was splendid excreise for *Jim” and made his muscles stana out like whip cords. Corbett's movements were quick and cat-like. Every musclo was put into play. The exhibition was enthusiastic- ally checred. Corbett never looked better and he was as hard and solid as & rock. In his windup with “Jiw" Daly, Corbett sparred veautifully. In response 1o the wishes of New York admirers Corbett said that he would probably veconsider his intention not 10 show in the” metropolis before his battle with Sullivan, and would try to make some arrangoment whereby e would be atlo to glve his friends iu this city a chance to seo im, Corbett said he was feeling better physic- ally than ever before in his life, and said ho folt conhdent of defeating Sullivan.

Y., Aug. 2L—Tho most sauguine of tho striking switchmen can no looger deny that the roads are moving Since the resumption of work vesterday morning tho Mizhigan Central has moved more cars than crdinarily and tho prospect that strikers would fmpede furtber progress is hourly dimimshing. The congoested condition of the yards at Black Rock has boon relieved to such extent that ail embargo on western freight 1s prac- tically removed and cars that have been held back along the Michigan Central are being shoved across the International bridge in numbers that excoed the ordinary influx.

Empty cars are beiug leld back asmuch as* possivle aud are not touched except to supply what are required for transfer and house freight uso The Erie officials made their first attempt to start freight out of the Black Rock yards this worning. It was the first sign of life seon in these yards since last Monday. Only one train was ont over this morning, and her this uftornoon. It is not probablo that any attempt to work the Irio yards north of Bast Buffalo will be made tonight. The Central, Erie and Lohigh are all work ing vigorously -at Iast Buffalo. Tho Erio sent <ix full traius cast .this morning, the Centra doae a trifle better, and the Lehigh avout the same.

To supply food to nonunion men or even soldiers is regarded by tbose in sympathy with tho strikers as a high crime. Any saloonman or innkeeper who undertakes to iocroase his revenue by catering 1o eithor members of the militia or the nonunion stran- gors has the assurance of s boycott from ail organized laborng men. Mr. Orther, the Black Rock saloonkeeper, who was said to have furaished dinner to the new men from the Central yard, bas repented, if the circum- stauces are s stated. Today he not only re- fused them any food but ordered a gang that bad been brought to his place under euard of a squad of soldiers to get out, saying: “L ain’t feeding scavs.’” He afterwards told somo of the soldiers that he was willing that they should eat at nis table. _The forces in the ueighborbood of the Lake Shore tracks on Llk street wanted od this morning and they wanted it bad, ‘They are 1n the midst of a strong,railroad aistrict and the seutimedt there 1s strongly 10 favor of the strikers.

Not only this, but a doubt was left in the minds of all the party whether the summoning of more troops would not be necessary, (eneral Porter talked with the commanding and subordinate ofticers at all the posts he visited. All made comforting roports of the condition of their ' men, suid that the food supply was now satisfactory and stated that vory little troubfe from strikers or their sympathizers had been ex- periencea. Noearly all, however, said that the work assigued to them was fully as much as thoy could eare for, Others went furtior and said thoy could muake good use of moro men. THE CAM General Port at General Porter's Views. At the engd of his day's investigations at 8 o'clock onight, General Porter stated to an Associated Pross correspondent that ho was decidedly of the opinion that there was ueed for all the troops that lad been called upon. Ho said: “If these great railvond properties aro to be guarded, if the men at work uro to be protected from assault and 1f the roads are to be oponea for regular trafic, there cortainly are not too many men on the grounds, and I don't know but it might bo wise to have 2,000 or $,000 more meu hero,” General Porter shook his bead when asked how loug the troops would remain bere, General Doyle, when asked 1f ho thought there wero enough troops here, snid the fact that he had today oraered an extra company of militia from Hornellsville wos sufiicient evidence that he did nov think so. General Porter started on lus day's inspection ufter midday. He was accompanicd by General Doylo and escorted by troop A of New Yorlk. Ali the camps accessiblo on horseback wore visited.

The Twelfth is uot located in a very desiraple spot and Gtueral Porter said later that this rogiment ‘and the Seventy-fourth were the onlv roglfuents whose camping grounds were inov satisfactory.

Y., Aug, 21,—"The firemon have the wholo thing in their hands, said a railroad man toan Associated Press corre- spondent today. *'If they go out you will soo the groatest strike the world ever knew. It will not bo coufiued to freigat trains alone, but passenger trains wiil bo involved. When the firemon go out, the ongineors will be practically out too. Chief Engineer Arthur does not believe 1n strikos, but ho will vot aliow nis men to go on the rond with green firemen. When thoy strike the roads are tlod up. They can win a fight without thy aid of the encineors or switchmon. Tho firemen are very well organized, but thoy are slow to go out and really 1 am doubiful about the that th are going to strike." *‘They are too well paid. They have no griovance of their own. They have good pluces, which they wouid bo loaih to throw up. It is not generally the rulo to oater sympathy strike. You may bo sure that tho firemen will not go 1nto this thing ill-advised, but should they do so all along the line, look at the result. Passengor and freight busi noss will bo uourly or entively stopped. Business houses will suffor because goods will not bo shipped. Poople away from home will have troublo gotting back; others will have to stay at homo, the entirs military forco of the state 1s mobilized at this point. It there should be ouble at any other city what would thoe soldiers do with traios ata standstill? It seems to me that if the firemen go out the strikers will have the situation in their own hands." ompany Dt ‘W ON SITUATION, He Has No lden That the Steike Will Last Any Length of Time. HAMBURG, Aug. 21.—A correspondont of the Associuted Press called today unon M, Chauncey M. Depow for the purpose of learning his views as regards tho switch- men’s striko at Buffalo, Mr. Depew said tho strike was o surprise to bum, as when he salled from New York evervthing was quiet, and as far as he knew ac that time there were not the slightest signs of impending trouble, When questioned os to the origin or immediate causo of the strike Mr. Dopow said he could not yet venture to discuss the subject, but from tho iuforma tion ne bad roceived through the newspapers and from other sources ho thought that the trouble would bo focusod in tho Buffalo Although somoe of tho Now York utral men bad strack out of sympathy with the Lehigh Valley men, he dida not think the strike wonld spread farther. On tho contrary he belioved that the trouble would s0on bo over - and that the roads affected by the strike would in a few aays be conducting business uuder normal condi- tions, Strike tumo Aug. 21.—Ivis rumored 215 10 bo a general tie- up within the next twenty-four hours on tho Lebigh Valley, Delaware & Hudson and Central railroad of Now Jersey, but nothing de ite can be learned, Al trains were run- ningtonight. Mo WiLkessarne, Pa here tonight that ti “Ensign” at Boyd's, Among tho most popular and profitable theatrical enterprises of recent years have been the war plays, and in **The Kosiga, presented au the Boyd last evening, William Haworth has made a successful bid for the same patriotic favor through a play based on navul fneidents, The motive of the work 1s found in tho in- cident of the late war known in bistory as “the Trent affair.” Mason and Stidell, the confederate comuussioners, arg woave Havana on the - Trent °* England and Frauce to soek aid for south. A renegade American who haa es caped hanzing i the union navy and joined the English service as a lieutenant plots to prevent the San Jacinto, a union man-of-war. from leaving Havana to overhaul the I'rent at sea ana capture Mason and Slidell. His plan is to eugage Ensign Ben Baird of tho San Jacinto in & quarrel, have the Cuban police iuterfere and thus detain the vessel, whose ofticers will be competled to remain in port and testify at the subsequent trial, The schemé is to iosult Baird by casting reflections on his sweetheart, but tho plot is discovered by an American mid- shipman, and Baird spoils that game by teli- iug the roncgade of the discovery. TEe lat- ter then teurs down the stars and stripes with iusulting taunts, aud in_the cncounter whicn follows ho is Killed, Cockswain Jack Dudley of the San Jacinto arrives just as the swords are drawn and tries to provent trouble by smashing the chandelier and put- ting out the ghts, but in vain. The wounded man staggers out ou the balcany and falls ovor. The subsequent soenes ave taken up with the trial of Baird by court-martial aud tho efforts to secure his pardon or reprieve. An oflicer of the English navy even woes so far as to have Bawrd chloroformed and carried from the San Jacinto a fow minutes before the time set for his execution, but the con- demnea man haa given bis word of honor to the captaiu that he would make no effort to escape, and on reggining consciousness he rewurns to the vessel and to the hangman’s noose. Of course he is pardoned just as the suilors are about to swing him into etornity from the yardarm, and everything onds happilv. While it bas not as much of the bustle and clangor of war as the army plays, “The sign’ 1s nol wanting in_stirring' incidents skillfully worked up into thrilling or p taetic climaxes, and it has sevtings and cplor- mgs quite as interesting as those of tho other branch of the service, The play is pervaded by tho loftiest sentimonts and there are scveral very effective scenes ju_ which pathos i3 the domi- nant element. The drama has no distinctively comeay role, but it is lightened with wany bright flashes of humor from several of the charucters. B.

Grabam mukes an admirable study of it.

All that was required of them was simply to, disembark from their tr fall fn line bohind their escorts and follow their noses to tho camp grounds, where thoy wero taken in charge by their quartermasters or reception com- mittoes and shown to thoir quarters. The reception of the ordinary civilian was nmore arduous, and involved the unwinding of considerable red tape. Of course, thoso who hiad engaged quarters at the hotels wero quickly enough cared for, but the rub came in caring for those thousands who had taken uo thought of the morrow, where they should cat or where they should sleep. For these it was necessary for them to be sent to the nearest burcau of informauon. There thoy were taken in hand, given claim checks for their baggagd, and assigned to the various quarters listed with the recoption committee for the entertainment of visitors by lodging and boarding houso keepers and private citize The immenso amount of work thrown upon these burosusof information may be imagined when it is known that they wave mformation to no less than 18,500 in- quirers, Crowds at the Unlon Depot.
