Dave Johnson of New York put up
S7OO for Mitehell, against $2,000 for Cor
2>ett on the result of the fight and there
were dozens of wagers in varying
amounts that the Englishman would
Stay in the ring for 20 rounds.
A well know Boston sport in making
a bet of this kind explained that he
based it upon his confidence in Mitchell
being able to run away from Corbett
for that period of time. "But if he al
lows himself to be hit a few times by
. the American champion,” he continued,
| he cannot stand for 10 rounds even.”
By 11 o’clock nearly every carriage in
town was in commission and began
bearing eastward toward the arena
through deep mud and water.
Their occupants were blowing great
clouds of smoke from the windows that
gave the calvacade somewhat of an ap
pearance of a moving volcano.
The Fight.
A number of persons in Rome who
, were interested in the fight, assembled
in the room adj lining the Western
Union office where Manager C. W.

Scenes In Court Room.
Jacksonville. Fl*., Jan. 85.— Ths
wildest excitement prevailed in the city
when the decision of Judge Call, enjoin
ing the sheriff from interfering in the
Corbett-Mitchell fight was rendered.
Goverm r Mitchell had been, practically,
overruled, and the arguments of his at
torney general had been of no avail.
The judge said the only point that
struck him was whether the statute cov
ering fighting by appointment would aj>-
ply to this case.
He did not think that the statutes
would cover a case like this. He said:
"The injunction is granted.”
When the court r«ached a decision the
audience could not restrain itself, but
broke out in loud applause. The sheriff
and court rapped repeatedly and loudly
for or.lor. Colonel Cockerell jumped to
his feet, raised his baud in admonition
and eaid:
“Gentlemen. I bag you to remember
this is a courtroom.”
The crowd mads a wild rush for the
door, uttering cheer after cheer. The
court ordered the disturbance to cease.
The sheriff and bailiffs rushed to the
doors, pushed those on their way out
out of the doors and locked the doors.
When quiet had finally been restored
Attorney General Lamar stood up and
asked for further time to file an answer
and move to dissolve the injunction.
Further time was given. The court
said he would be ready to hear it any
time.
It was a great battle before Judge
Call. There was intense interest man
ifested in the case. Every sporting man
in the city was present, besides a large
part of the populace. There was only
standing room in the court room when
Deputy Sheriff Williams sung out, in
stentorian tones, “Order in court!” and
brought down his gavel with a re
sounding report that emphasized the or
der.
The ass* far the dub was canductad
py voionei Cockerell, with Judge
Young; that for the state by State’s At
torney Hartridge, with whom was asso
ciated Attorney General Lamar.
The argument was begun at 10 o’clock
and lastiid until 1, when the case was
submitted. Judge r? Call pulled out his
watch and announced that thecourt was
adjourned until 3 o’clock. There was
considerable disappointment that a de
cision had not been reached, and the big
crowd filed out.
The lawyers for the club made an
effort to have the case decided on the
merits ot the law. The state fought for
a decision on the question of equity,
maintaining that the court hud no juris
diction to decide the question of law as
to whether glove contests were prohibit
ed by statue. The club people were
much encouraged when tiie judge asked
Mr. Lamar to discuss the contention of
the complainants that a glove contest
was t JlWal. AfiM> M>
VMJI WREKLY TBIBVJKK. THOB-SDAT, 1,
*>me« ai* discussion «f the question
the judge asked the complainants’ at
torneys to discuss it also, and they did.
with good effect.
They maintainel that there was ne
law in the state of Florida which pro
hibited even prize fights, and Coloudl
Cockrell defied the attorney general to
cite one instance where a conviction had
been secured in a stat* in which there
was no specific statue pasted for the
prevention of prize fights.
Judge Young reinforced him with the
argument that the old duelling statute—
the statute designed to prevent fighting
by appointment—which the .attorney
general maintained was prohibitory of
glove contests, prize fights or whatever
they may be called, contemplated fight
ing with weapons. That those articles
of agreement under which Corbett and
Mitchell were to contest for athletic su
premacy coiitenrplateii gloves --glpves
allowed by law aid that the city of
Jacksonville had passed an ordinance
under the right given it by the state in
its special charter regulating legal gloves
at five ounces.
Colonel Cockerell followed Judge
Young in the statement that the basis of
a fight was malice and anger. That
-• there was no malice nor anger in this
. case. It was to be a friendly .content —a
scientific exhibition. Ho also main
tained that in a prize fiifht it was not
necessary, as the state had attempted to
show, that bodily injury should be
done.

general made their strong fight on the
equity part of the proceedings. Mr.
Lamar said that an injunction would
not lie wherein t’.iei"s was redress at law.
The complain .tits, he aided, had failed
to show that the redress provided by the
sheriff wm inadequate. They had only
made and uncertain claims that
the sheriff would damage the club irre
parably by interfering with the enter
tainment.
He also argued that as a peace officer
the sheriff had a right to enter into th*
premises of the Duval Athletic club
with a sufficient force to conserve the
peace.
The club side maintained that the
sheriff had announced that ho would
take possession of th* premises until th*
entertainment was abandoned and that
he had no right to assume that this ex
bition was to be a violation of th* law.
He had no evidence further than the ar
ticles of agreement as to th* character
of that entertainment and no right be
yond that evidence and assuia* that
th*r* was going to baa brdhch of th*
peace. Judg* Young said that the club
did not ask th* court -to enjoin a peac*
officer in th* discharge of hi* duty, but
that tho sheriff iur*nded to go beyond
his duty and do an illegal aot under the
color of hi* offic*.

It seems that a number of the men

reaching the corner of Hogan street the
guard descried a squad of the missing
men approaching and immediately gave

TO PUSH ROME, "i
——
Mr. Samuel Funkhouser Has
a Plan
WHICH IS PRACTICAL.
To Cover the Gieat Northwest
With Printed Matter Con
cerning Rome.
(
Mr. Samuel Funkhouser has a practical '
plan for pushing Rome’s interest.
“Almost every day I get letters from
the Norihwest asking for infoimation,”
said he, “and I try to answer them, but 1
might write for an hour or two, and not
begin to do just ce to the subject. If I
had at hand a well prepared pamphlet of
fifty pages, it would not take me two
miuu es to address one and write a po
lite letter stating that it wou'd have the
desired int'ormaliori in reliable form.
“This, I have no doubt has been the
experience of eveiy business man in
Rome. We all have calls for inhuma
tion which they have not the time to give
if it must be wiitten out every time, but
it could be easily sent if we had the
matter carefu ly prepared and printed in
attractive style.”
Mr. Funkbouser does not believe in
sending out anything shabby, but thinks
some money will have to be spent on it.
“I am satisfied we can raise what is
needed to do the thing right,” said he,
"at least lam going to make an effort. I
have seep several public spirited gentle
men, and they all entered into the plan
heartily at once. We must have § me
thing authoritative, with articles wri ten
by the men most qualified to speak ou
each subject. For instance we ought to
have an article by Dr. Robert Bittey on
I the health and climate of the place, one
by Mr. G« H. Miller on horticulture, and
so on through the list, not forgetting any
advantage or any resource which we may
have.
'‘The time is ripe for such an effort.
The people are creeping out of tho cold
northwest, and once more the south is
their obj-c ive point. The first in the
field will reap the advantage of this turn
of affairs. Besides this, we will have the
eyes of the world tumid on this whole
region before long. L ng before the
S in thorn Exposition opens in, Atlanta we
will have a great rush of inquiries from
home seekers all over the piedmont re
gion. We should take time by tlie fore
lock and be prepared to reap whatever
benefit may accrue fro n the enterprise.”
THE POPULATION OF ROME.
The School Enumeration Shows That With
the Suburbs It Is Over 13,000.
The school enumeration in the office of
County School Commissioner Bridges
shows the population of Rome and its
suburbs to be something over 13.000
This school enumeration is more com
plete than the United State* census.
More enumerators ware employed and
there is a name on file for every child
mentioned. The way it shows the whole
population is explained as follows:
The school population, that is to say,
between the ages of six and eighteen
years in Floyd county is 9,647. That of
the city of Rome is 2,249. Around the
city are a number of suburbs, comprising
moat of the population in the Rome dis
trict outside the city. The school popu
lation of the district is 1513 exclusive of
the suburban towns of North Rome and
East Rome, which have a school popula
tion of 448, making the total school pop
ulation of the Rome district outside of
Rome 1966. Os this there are about 200
beyond the suburbs. The suburbs have
at at least 1750 of the 1966. Add the 1750
of the suburbs to the 2,249 of the city
and you have a school population of 4 000
for the city and suburbs. The ratio of
school population to whole population is
in this region estimated at one to 3 1-3
On this basis the whole population of
Rome and its suburbs is 13,333.

A RAILROAD DEAL- '
W. F. Shellman Will Take Charge of the
Atlanta and West Point.'
The appointment of J. M. Scott for
merly of Anniston, to the management of
the Georgia railroad, it is now under
stood, was the first chapter of a deal be- *
tween Receiver Comer, of the Central, I
and Manager Smith, of the L. & N. :
Railroad men in a position to know, <
say that Mr. Comer has for some time J
been anxious to relieve President Charles
Phinizy and Col. Tyler, of the Atlanta
A' W eat Point anß the Westerfi ' Hailroad
of Alabama, and to put in charge of
that line W. F.. Sbetlmae, of Savannah,
but, it is said the LAN. would not con
sent to this tin ess an L. <fc N. man could
ne put in charge of the Georgia. And
«hen Mr. Scott took charge of that line it
was uudeistood to be by the consent of
Mr. Comer.
It is said there has been some hitch in
matters which has prevented Mr. Shell
man from taking Charge of the Atlanta
& West Point and thoWes'eru Riilroad
of Alabama as the deal contemplates,
but by Febtury 21,t, it is said, Messrs.
Ph’n'zy and Tyier will be ousted, and
the Sivaunah man will take bold. It is
still doubted bv some whether that part
of the deal will ever be consummatid, as
Mr. Phinizy has developed unexpected
strength with the security holders.
