for Their Action.
Jacksonville, Fla., Jan. 4.—Manager
Cow tie ii, of tho Duval c!ul>, has gone to
St. Angnstiue to get Mitchell to sign ar
ticles allowing the club tho privilege of
naming any place where the contest
*hall l:e held. If Mitchell signs, so the
club says, the contest will be sure to j
come off, and not in secret either, as it
could not afford such a program. i
If Mitchell does not sign the club will I
announce the affair to th* world. The
passage by the city council of an ordi
nance licensing glove contests, tho club
claims, gives them a case for damages
against the city, if the city does not give
police protection to stop any interfer
ence with tho tight. This is a new* phase
of the caso.

They came strictly on business, accom- J

no interference to speak of, and it ia
lucky that they did not. for they were
strong enough to overcome any ordinary

The visit grew out of a raid which
deputy marshals made on the moon

Atlanta, Jan. 4.—Govern
has thrown a cold douche ovt
osition to have the fight bet w
and Mitchell take place hero.
The governor said that if there w'as
the slightest trace or shadow of a law
applying to prize fighting he w’ould en
force it. Ho says he will not allow’ the
matter to go even as far as the governor
of Florida has done, bnt if there is
much more talk heard he will cause the
arrests of those taking part in the affair.
Persons W’ho thougnt they could bring
iff the fight have been confident for sev
eral days because the legislature refused
to pass a hill introduced forbidding
prize-fighting. It was thought this
meant that those who are opposed to the
affair taking place in the state were un
able to stop it. 4
According to Governor Northen and a
number of lawyers the reason the legis
lature refused to take any action was
that the law on the statute books was
considered sufficient. Somo of those who
were interested in bringing the fight ad
mit their mistake.

While the night operator at Calhoun
was listening to the monotonous click of
his instruments, at 11:30 o’clock he heard
something crash. He ran out of his of
fice and found the car containing the
stilts w’as being opened by a band of
White Caps, numbering at least 100
men. They leveled their guns on the
operator and commanded him to return
to his office and attend strictly to his
business. They proceeded to open the
box car and took from it the two stills
that were captured the night before.
The White Caps shouldered the stills
and carried them to a wagon, loaded
them and returned with them to their
mountain homes.

neavy Storms in England.
London, Jan. 4.—Blinding stow
storms, accompanied by heavy wind and
furious seas prevailed in the English
channel all night. The packet service
between English and French ports is in
terrupted, aud some of the steamers suf
fered severe damage. Packets from
Ostend were unable were unablo to land
at Dover owing to a tremendous sea,

storm will abate somewhat.
Rjtonl’a Warning.
Savannah, Jan. 4.—Captain W. G.
Kaoui former president of the Georgia
Central rail lord, now president of the
Mexican Central, writes a letter to the
Savannah Press strongly urging the re
moval of tho Southwestern from the
Central sys - ;m. Raoul claims that a
speculative scheme is organizing in New
\ork to secure control of the Georgia
Central railroad aud that the South
western centering at Macon should be
saved from the wreck.
A New Prison for United State* Prisoner*
Askc«l for by Atlanta.
Atlanta, Jan. 4.—An important doc
ument, proceeding from the United
States court for the northern district of
Georgia, has been transmitted to Wash
ington city. The document relates to
the establishment of a United States
prison in Atlanta for the accommoda
tion of federal prisoners in the southern
territory.
From the urgent manner in which the
erection of a prison isj urged by tho
grand jury—the fact that a general bill
providing for the location of a prison in
the south has already passed—and the
further fact that Atlanta is the most
convenient and available situation for a
prison m this section of the country—it
is highly probable that the petition will
be granted.
In addition to the i>lea of the grand
jury, addressed to tho congress of the
United States, through the congressman
from this state, Colonel L. F. Living
ston, special petitions will be sent oy
Judge Newman, District Attorney
James, the clerks of the federal court,
the postmaster, the commissioner of the
internal revenue and the United States
marshal.
