LONDON, Nov. Ww. 25.—When The Evening World correspondent called on the agent of the White Star line and asked about the reported |. sinking of the Cedric, he said: “We have no ground whatever for placing the slightest credence in reported sinking of Cedric in midocean. We deny it absolutely, It is simply a cruel hoax and all efforts of our representatives in Ciyerpone have failed to trace its origin.” NO CONVIRMA TION OF RUMOR. ‘The report that the great White Star liner Cedric, which sailed from Liverpool last Thursday, was sunk in mid-ocean in collision with ‘a’ vesse! of the Lamport & Hoit line is without verification, In answer to hundveds of telegrams from all over the country and to telephone inquiries the local agents of the line assert their belief that the rumor is false. That the viganiie Cecvie with her many water-tight compartments and ange t's coul! de sank in coiision with angvhing that floats shoct of uw battle-ship is not credited in shipping circles. The Cedric is the largest steamship afloat. She carried nearly 1,000 Passengers when she sailed from Liverpool last Thursday. There were 290 first cabin, 160 second cabin and 440 steerage passengrs, She is due off Nantucket some time to-night or to-morrow. In case she fails (a report when due the local agents will cable to Liverpool for a list of the passengers and arrange to send out for definite information, STOLE MOUSETRAP SECRETLY WED HIS AND GOT 3 MONTHS PRETTY EMPLOYEE Had There Been a Mousse in It; Thomas F.

A select circle of invited guests were present at the weighing in, There was a murmur of admiration as the two Siadiators stripped and stepped on the scales. ibe The beam was fixed at the weight, 168 pounds, and a hush fell.on the crowd as. Fitz and Gardiner jumped on the platform, Neither man raised the beam. I saw both men early to-day and they are certainly in prime shape. elf Fitz has a cold it must be at home in the ice-box. He looks like a race-horse to me. Unless } am very much mistaken he is the same grand old wate ~ horse. HE SHOULD WIN ON THE BIT. The betting is still 10 to 9 and 10 to 8. There is a flood of Fitz. . simmons money under cover which will be sprung at the last minute, 1 j think they will go into the ring with Fitz favorite at odds of 10 ta.¢ or 10 to 7 at the most.

Both did light work yesterday afternoon, As both are well within the | weight limit they needed no more. Gardner went on the road, as usual, and did eight miles. Greggains says they are taking no stock in storits coming from Filz’s cayip saying he is ill and not feeling right. Gardner has worked faithfully and will enter the ring ready for the vest Fitz has. Fitz's feet are still very sore. many saw him yesterday bandaging them he was walking on his heels. The fect look raw have salve and bandages on them when he ‘old boy” is feeling good. Joe Kennedy rubbed cold out of his shoulders and Fitz said all well, He le.ves Alameda to-day on the 11 o'clock boat for the ‘Frisco side; He intends stopping at the Adams House, on Mddy street, where Jeff stayed prior to ring time with Corbett just the same, There is no joke about this, however, and When he came from the shower and in pility.y s into the r was o later.

Besides Delaney, Fitz will have Sam Berger, Joe Kennedy and Johnny Croll, son of the proprietor of Crotty Garden, where Fitz has been working. ‘There will also be a mascot in the corner—a youngster named Bi who hen: his way from Omaha to see Fitz fight.
