Corbett's wanager, signed articles calling for & coutest at Coney Island, next Beptember, of Lwenty rounds or more, be- tween Mitchell and Corbott for a purse of $10,000, unaer Marquis of Quecusberry rule the winner to receiwe the full purse. The articles stipulate that Mitehell's signature must be obtained by August 5. The club | agrees to nost $10,00 aud the princi- s #5,000 each. The articles will delivered o Mitchell for his signature, which must be obtained on or before August 5. By the stipulation in the articles neither Mitehell nor Corvett is permitted to fght with anyone else rfor to meoting each other. As Corbett Bas arranged to meet Jackson in June, 1864, itonly remains for Mitchell to attath his pignature to lusure the match boing held at Coney Island. LoNoox, July 12 --Peter Jackson has re- celved a cable from Charles R. Davies (Par son) to return L0 Awerica 0 arrange a match to fight Jim Corbett for §10:000 a | side and & purse inthe Columbian Athletic club in November. Jackson will sail for New York on July 19.

We both agroed the fight should take place the second weok in December, as he would not fieht sooner, although it was freely stated he was willing to meot me on my arrival in Amorica. The only club articles that I have secn were those at New Orleans whero Charles Nool, presidont of the Crescent City Athletic clubasked me to put my name to his club's articles, Ho said thav the roscont City club would give as large a purse as any organization, and I signed them provisionally—that is to say, if Corbett would not agree to them, they would not be binding upon me. Now, as regards his fighting Peter Jackson in November, he can do s he pleases, but if he should suffer defeat [ certainly have no use for him. I shall be in America early in September. T will sign the articles then, or it it will be more satisfactory 1 am perfectly willing to sign them here if thoy are forwarded to me. Up to the present time 1 had thought that Corbett meant business and was a fair and square man in all his dealings. Now, however, 1 feel certain that he desires to avoid meeting me. The Columbian Ath- lotic_elub, or any other club in Amorica where the authorities will not interfere with the match, will suit me, I trust 1 will hear no more of Corbett’s babbling until 1 reach America, where it will be much easior for moto answor him in person or other- NATIONAL AGUE GAMES, Boston Tukes & Turn at O and Likes It.

DAILY BEE; THURSDAY GOLDEN RULE AS A REMEDY Oauses of Hard Times as Seen Through a Preacher’s Eyes. ELDER SPECK ON THE FINANCIAL CRISIS Speculation, Greed and the World's Fair Are Factors, Acoording to 1 Oyer Mogs Another Reason. Elder J. R. Speck of the First Christlan church, South Omaha, delivered a sermon on the “Causes of Hard Times," last Sun- day. He spoke, in part, as follows: “The American people aro a fast peoplo and prone to wild spoculation. A carcful study of history will show that these hard times come about once every elght yoars. Wo have more men raised to sudden wealth than any four nations of the old world. That the Anancial condition of the country is seri- ous at prosont 1 will not deny, but I do not taink that it is appalling. Thero are alarge number of failures of a sensationsl charac- tor—failures that have startled the nation— but as yeot thero are no failures that need givo widespread alarm. Nearly all of the concerns that have gone to smash have done 80 from clear violation of plaiu business princivles, or from wild, and wo might say wicked, speculation. “Thero is no denying the fact that there is a financial pressura over the wholo country that, if continued much longer, will have far mora serious results. “The frightful reverses in Australia, amounting to nearly 300,000,000, one-third of which consists in investments and securi- ties held by English and Scotch capitalists, has caused the continual selling of American securities by Knglish hoiders, and the whole stock market has been forced very low. Wheat in the Chicago exchange reachod its lowest mark a fow days ago, lower than it ever was bofore in the history of tho ex- change. All of chis means, of course, & shrinkago of the price of stocks of all kinds, and credit has almost reached bottom. When we consider that almost two-thirds of tho business of the United States is done on a credit basis, the force of the remark can then be realized when we say that crodit has almost reached the bottom. Inabillty to Moot Obligations. “‘Men borrow money from banks, giving certain stocks or bonds as securities. The price of these stocks goes down to 30 per cont and the bank demands the payment of part of the loan or more securities, the bor- rower is unable to pay or give additional se- curities, the bank forecloses and failure is the rosult. Commercial paper is more spar- ingly discounted, the bauks must keep a large reserve to guard against a run and thus avoid failure for themselves. All this involves large shrinkage of commercial op- erations and of credit currency, which 1s in the form of checks, drafts and notes. These constitute over 90 per centof our commercial currency today. In order for this nation of peoplo to do business on a strictly cash basis we would have to have 80 where we only have $1 now, and still I hear men talk about there beiug t00 much money in circulation. But there are bound to be failures when it is the consuming ambition of thousands of business men to do$500,000 business on §100,- 000 of capital, ‘“The reason for the stringency is gen- erally assigned to the operation of the She man law and the strain on the United States treasury. Through its operation the gold fell below the $90,000,000 mark a few weeks ago, but just why there need be such a vast amount of money hoarded in the United States treasury is a mystery to the ordnary populist. It may be clear to a good demo- crat if he is nearly starved. All this time, though, silver is heaping up in the sreasury, too, at the rate of $50.000,000 a year, adding bulk to the already hoarded hundreds of millions. Cotnage of American Product. “True, part of this is in circulation in the shape of silyer certificates, but it all ought to be available. As it is, they are heaping up nearly $1,500.000 of unavailablo assets daily, and it scems to me that itis a costly luxury, when Uncle Sam is living so high any Thers are two ways that have been suggested as a remedy for this cond: tion of things. One is free coinage, and while I am not in favor of the free coinage of the world’s silver, I am of the American pro- duct. Free comage on any basis would be better than the present method, ending the present stress more quickly, Another way would be to redeem government notes and certificates with silver bullion at the market value of the bullion at the time of redemp- tion; this would give us a sound and non- fluctuating currency, and it seems to me that it is the wisest policy 1 have read of, and the prohibition party is the only party I know of that is advocating such a poli ‘What do you think of it! This would check the drain of gold from our country and givethe treas- urer at one stroke an increase of several hundred millions in his available assets, World’s Fair asa Factor, *‘We must not lose sight of the World's fair when we are considering the financial condition of our country at present. The (as_yet) unproductive investment repre- sentéd by the fawr must be immense. The amount expended by the direotory and by the states must be over §0,000,000. The amount invested by exhibitors’ will amount to many millions more. The railroads have largely increased their rolling stock, and at the same time with this tremendous outlay there has been, certainly, o curtailing of ex- pensos of living in hundreds of thousands of homes all over tho land, in_order to save up money o go to_the fair. We would not bo surprised if the World’s fair should ropre- sent the withdrawal of $100,000,000 from pro- ductivo sources. Even if the fair proves a financial success to its stockholders it will represent the expenditure by the Amori- n people of this sum in what may be med & luxury. The investment may bring us futuze trade with forcign lunds and iv may bring millions into the country from foreign visitors, but at presenv it represents a wonstrous outlay, and it must have its effect on the markets, But I do think that theso hard times are caused by overproduction, but not of corn, or hogs of the four-legged varicty, but by hogs of the two-legged breed in the shape of men, 1h fact, by the overproduction of grecdy people. What does it moan when we say silver is down to 70 cents! It means that silver is worth 70 cents an ounce, The rate 20 to 1 means that one oupce of ¢old is worth s much us twenty ounces of silver, What does a rise i gold inean?

SALT LAke, July 12, —[Special Telegram to e Brr.]—A monster silver demonstration was held at the Salt Lake theatoer tonight. The capacity of the large hall was inade- quate to the crowd that clamored for ad- mittance. Spirited speeches were made by Governor West, Mayor Baskin of Salt Lake, Congressional Delegate Joseph Rawlin Judge C. C. Goodwin of the Salt Lake Tribune and others, reviewing the present condition of silver and finance and favoring the free coinage of silver as the only salva- tion of the west, Resolutions were passed petitioning don- gress for the enacument of a law repealing the Sherman law and all other laws unfay- orable to silver, and the substitution thereof of a law restoring to silver its former value as a legal tender on an equal standing with old. Thoe resolutions also called upon loyal tahans 1o go to Washington at the coming session of congress to aid in overy possible way the passage of u free coinage law. Delegate Joseph Rawlins favored &.com- promise law that will give the west tree silver at a ratio of 20 to 1. A petition to congress embodying a free coinage resolution will be circulated throughout the cities’ and mining camps of the terrtory. Comments of nglish Paper. LoxpoN, July 12—The Mail, discussing the silver crisis, says: ‘The action of Indin and of President Cleveland merely precipi tated the trouble caused by America’s silyer policy, her reckless pension scheme and tho McKinley tariff law. ““Threats from Denver ot armed violence if the Sherman law is repealed will not ter- rify anybody. Such desperation only proves that the silver monopolists are hopeless. Fightiug the battle on the ground of politi- 1 and economic argument, both the mate- rial and the moral forces are on the side of the classes in America who are resolved to support the silver bur- dev. It India had allowed the question to drift, the sudden action of America must have disastrously shaken India’s credit by closing the muts. 1t is believed that a measure of stability has boen sccured which will defy the shock of any charge from America or clsewhere, In the meantime India's alarm at the sale of coun- cil bills under 16 pence, is not justified. The measure is exporimental and the rate of ex- auge holween any two countries cannot bo fixed absolutely forevel SUCCESSF UL BEYOND MEASURE.

The attendance was large and the program was rendered in fivie form. The Cleveland soprano, Miss C. Ford, was given a flatter- ing reception. The orchestral numbers were heartily applauded, as was tho Junger Macn- nerchor of Philadelphia, which saug *“The Hero's Grave.” Courad Behrens, the basso, sang well and was well received. A furore was created by the united singers of Cincinnati, who rendered the Suomis song. The famous Lioderkranzof New Yoric added to its laurels when 1t sang “Charm of the Night.” Baron Berthald, the tenor, and Miss Lena Littlo, the contralto, carried off their share of the nfternoon’s honors. “This evening Suengerfest hall was packed full.

Rita Blandi sang an aria from Fidelio and was as warmly received as last night and equal honors were given her when she sang a scene and avia from “Freischutz.” Baron Berthald's fine rendi- tion of Walther's prize song, from the master songs of Nuremburg, drew forth a storm of applause, and after him the mighty mass chorus sang a folk song and a composition by Dumack, electrifying tho audience later with a magnificont rendition of Scwalm’s **Death Song of the Goths.” Last on the program, but the best thing yet heard in the festival, was the festival cantata, “The N 'the prizo com- vosition of Heinrich Zoellnér of New York.

Beckett followed up and fired two more shots, hitting the dog cach time, ho says. At last reports the doz was running towards home and will no doubt be on hand today to attack another victim.

Drxver, July 12.~An Associated pross reprosentative loarned today that Rev. T. H. Malone, editor of the Colorado Catholic, had ia his possession a very important do- cision of Mgr. Satolli on the school quos- tion. When asked about the matter, Father Malone replied that it was trne. The facts are as follows: On the 2Sth of August, 1891, Bishop Matz issued the follow- ing order: “Be it understood by all the faithful, both of the clorgy ana tho laity, that for tho future no children will be re ceived for first communion and confirmation who have not, for at loast two years pre- vious, boen attending the parish school, or somo other Catholic school. And we re- serve to ourselves tho right to judge whether the reasons are suficiently grave in cortain cases to allow an excoeption to the regula. tion, This law has nover boen withdrawn by Bishop Matz, who has strenuously opposed the school policy of Archbishop Ir I is claimed by the opponetts of Archbishop Ireland and Archbishop Satolli that in view of the letter of the pope on the school ques- tion thoe bishop of a diocese is_sole jidge as to the lawfulness or unlawfulness of Cath- olic ehildren attending the public schools. In view of this contention the letter of Mgr. Satolli may prove of far-reaching im- port. The substance of the lotter is this: Archbishop Satolli, on learning of the exist- ence of Bishop Ma'tz's deoree, wrote to him strongly lhs.’\pRmvh\z it. Bishop Matz re- plied that he had eniirely modifiod his fn- structions. There is no public record, how- ever, of the law ever having been modified or abrogated. Mgr. Satolli's instructions to Father Malone are, that tho law,which he character- izes as a harsh and injurious measure, 15 to be ignored, and, further, that greater care and charity are to be exercised in giving ro- ligious instruction and in administering the sacraments to children who do not attend the parochial schools. Father Malone is empowered to announce the abrogation of the law Iaid down by Bishop Matz The de- ion is_completely in line with tho conten- tions of the Colorado Catholie, and 18 looked upon_here as u great victory for Archbishop Troland, whose policy Bishop Matz saia he would sce his hand wither before he would adopt in the diocese of Denver.
