Moore is the enirineer. A lew minutes before the train started, Sullivan, in response to calls, came out on the rear platform of his coach aud bowed to the crowd, which surged to that portion of the yard and cheered lor the biff fellow. At exactly 5:30 o'clock the train drew out of the depot, followed by the shouts of the throng. Theajjentof the "West Shore said that numerous applications for berths had been received lrom points along the route, and that additional coaches would probably be put on. It was noticeable that the makeup of the party was of higher grade than that which attended the Snllivan-Kilrain battle.

SULLIVAN ON THE ROAD. A Big Crowd at Kingston Falls to Sre the Man Tor Whom They Cheer The Champion Can't Grt Half Enonch to Eat. imOM A STAFF COBUESFOf DETr.l Kingston, N. Sept. 1.

The country lolk drew near the train of the AVest Shore Railroad this evening as the special train chartered by the Bryant Athletic Association to convey John L. Sullivan and 250 of his admirers to Xew Orleans arrived on its nay to the Crescent City. Each hamlet had its contingent of sports at the depot, and there were the usual demonstrations of hai-waving and cheering. Sullivan occupied the stateroom of the vestibule sleeping car, and, as soon as the train pulled out of Weehawken, Phil "Wakeley and Johnston endeavored to get the hall dozen friends of the big fellow who had crowded into bis quarters to return to their own cors and leave ike champion in peace. John would have liked their companionship tor awhile longer, but he stretched his great arms above his head, jawned, cracked his hands together and said to his trainer, "Phil, I could eat a horse, I am so hungry," and Casey hustled the crowd through the door and Sullitan laughed heartilv as they departed, saving "I'm something of a jollier, myself," but he was really hungry, and attacked the food set betore bim with as great avidity as a backwoodsman in a logging camp.

The last vestige of the meat had disappeared when West Point was reached. I'leniy to Kat and Drink. There were many gay spirits in the party, and there was a great display of bottles of various kinds, long and short, while an abundance of muscle as on hand to wield the corkscrews. Xone of it went to loss, a well-known judge lrom Boston leading the fun. Introductions were unnecessary, and the square-janed individuals with shaven laces and diamonds as big as hazel nuts sparkling in the bosoms of their shirts clinktd glasses with prosperous looking men ot business who were probably going to see their first nrize fiirhf There was loud talk, but it was all per4 lectly good natureU, aud all bad money to wager on Sullivan.

At Cornwall the train made its first stop, and the Blithedale was naturally surrounded by hundreds of persons who shouted "Sullivan! Sullivan! speech." The champion came out of the state room and sat beside Frank Moran. Charley Johnston wanted him to go to the window and acknowledge the plaudits of the crowd. John smiled cynically and said something about punching a hole in his backer's waistband, and when the mere persistent of the crowd pressed through the windows, Sulli van beat a retreat. There he rei.mineri nn. til the train started, when three rousing Dr.

Hcrron was called and upon examma-cheers went np lor the man lrom Boston. tion found that his neck had been broken. uMv.in's Followers All Coufi lent. The followers of Sullivan's pugilistic fortunes have no fear that their man will not go into the ring on Wednesday next fit to fight of his life. He is a better looking specimen of the prize fighter than when he went to New Orleans in 1889 to fight Jake Kilrain, and this evening, as he chatted aiter his supper, he was a picture ot health.

Eyes snapped brightly and there was plenty ot color in the strong face, browned by exposure to the sun on the sand of Long Is'and. John was bubbling over with good spirits alter his supper and chatted with The Dispatch reporter saying among other things: 'I'm awful glad to get started lor New Orleans, but I will be glad when it's over and I can get out on the road with my play. How do I feel? First-class, never better; think I'm stronger than ever before at any rate, that's the way I feeL I will keep going all the way down, doing just enough training to be in trim on Wednesday." Sullivan wore a blue flannel shirt, open at the throat, while a blue yachting cap gave him quite a jaunty appearance. Sullivan's 10-year-old nephew. John L.

Leonard, is with the big fellow as a mascot. There was a large croud at Kingston station, and Sullivan received a very warm reception. He remained in his stateroom and was content with a peep through the curtains. CORBETT'S PLANS CHANGED. Do Won't Leave for Sen Orleans Until Soon ot Saturday.

AsbukyPamc, Sept 1. Special' A. Brady, Jim Corbett's manager, has, to a certain extent, altered his plans in regard to leaving here for New Orleans. Instead of taking a special train in the Interlaken station, for the scene ot the big fight, the Corbett party will have a special car attached to the regular Pennsylvania train to Jersey City, Saturday noon, arriving there in time to have the added to the Corbett special, which will be in waiting. After his arrival in New Orleans Corbett will be taken to the house ot a triend, where he will remain until he enters the ring to face Sullivan.

He will not witness any of the other fights, and Manager Brady Mill attempt to keep him away from the big crowd. For the short time that he will be in New Orleans Corbett will do his training at the gymnasium of the Southern Athletic Club. To-day Corbett put in a good day's training. He played out several both in wrestling and jparring. After tiring out, Daly requested McVey, the heavy-weight wrestler lrom Philadelphia, to give him a turn, aud after a full hour's tugging and clinching McVey had to give up.

The perspiration was streaming from bim, but Corbett looked as cool as a cucumber and was disappointed at not having some one else to finish up. He complained that no matter how hard he worked with his trainers he was unable to tire himself out NEW ORLEANS FILLING DP. Crowds Arriving at the Crescent City to Take In the Big Fislilg The Tiottlnc t'icks Cp Where tho Pugilists Trill Hoard V. line in the City. New Orleaks, Sept 1.

Special. The crowd is beginning to arrive for the big fights. The first-comers are mainly newspaper men who want to look over the field, or sporting men anxious to see how the pugilists are so as to make their bets. Betting on the fights continues to improve, but as formerly they are mainly on combinations. A bet of 54,500 to 53,000 against the Corbett, Myer and Skelly comDination was made this evening, and one ot 51,040 to 5400 on Siillhan, McAulifie and Dixon.

A bet ol 52,500 even on Myer was also made at a pool room, to-dav, and yesterday Corbett was backed at odds of 5 to 8. The Olympic Club has appointed a committee to meet Billy Myer at the Illinois Central depot to-morrow night He will go at once to Wellman's, in Carrollton, a suburb of this city, where he will remain until his fight comes off Sullivan is expected Saturday and will be given a big reception. President Noel will appoint a committee of the Olympic Club to meet the champion -at the train and take him to his temporary quarters. Arrangements are being made to secure quarters lor Sullivan on Bampart street near the Young Men's Gymnastic Club, and it is 3uuc nicely mat tuu uil; icjiuw, mr mc ct ays he is in town, will have the rooms he occupied when he stopped here just before the Kilrain fight The Olympics seem worried about the stories that have gone out that the Dixon-Skelly fight is unpopular here because of Dixon's color, and say that Dixon will get as fair a show as any of the pugilists. BIG BETS ON THE BIG BOY.

Boston Sporty Men Hacking Their Favorite for Good Money. NewYoek, Sept 1. Special. A large delegation of local and out-of-town sporting men left the Vanderbilt Hotel at 4.30 o'clock this afternoon for New Orleans. Betting on the coming fight was pretty brisk, with lots of Sullivan men around aud a few takers.

Thomas Vogue, of San Francisco, has wagered a few hundred dollars on Sullivan and carried a sum between 55,000 and 510,000 with him to New Orleans to wager. Vogue made one wager of 51,000 to 5G00 just before he boarded the train. Billy Mahoney wagered 51,000 to $700 on Sullivan. Jack Walsh, of Bridgeport, also thinks so well of the big fellow that he placed $1,000 to S800 on him. A.

Patrick Jloran Beaten and Then Bobbed by a Crowd of Men. HUGH ROSS SURRENDERS HIMSELF Famous Mark Baldwin, the premier pitcher of the Pittsburg Baseball Club, is under arrest. He is charged with having incited and participated in the rit at Homestead on the morning of the 6th of July. Late yesterday afternoon the famous ball tosser entered Alderman McMasters' office. He was accompanied by his father, Frank E.

Baldwin, of Homestead. The pitcher made his way to the Alderman's desk, and said: 'Squire, I understand that there is a warrant out for me. Is it true?" "Yes," replied the Alderman, "you are charged with aggravated riot, and the information is made by Secretary Lovejoy, of the Carnegie Steel Company." "Well," answered Mark, "I desire to furnish bail. What is the amount?" "Two thousand dollars," said the Alderman. "I will go my son's security and sign the bail bond," quickly replied the elder Baldwin, as he edged his way up to the desk.

In response to the Usual queries Mark's father stated that he was a member of the real estate firm of Baldwin Wilson, that the office of the firm was at 603 Ann street, Homestead, and that he (Baldwin) was a property holder. Alderman McMasters accepted him as security and the bond was quickly filled out aud signed. Then the big pitcher was released and left the office. Una Ytatchrd for Soran Time. Ever since the eventful morning of the 6th of July last, the lawyers oflhe Car-n gie Company, Limited, have been watch-ins Pitcher Baldwin.

Thev claim that they have found men who will testify that Mark was in the company's yard on the morning ot the battle on the river front, and that he participated in the proceedings. On the other hand, both the Baldwins, son and sire, insist that they took no active part in the fight Baldwin pere is well known in Homestead. He was originally a steelworker, but retired from the mills some years ago and devoted bis time and talents to speculating in real estate. Young Mark was born and raised in Homestead. Seven or eight years ago his skill as a ball player attracted the attention of Captain Adrian Anson, of the Chicago Baseball Club.

Mark was induced to join the ranks of the professional Dall players, and quickly blossomed out as the star pitcher of the Chicago club. His success as a pitcher was as emphatic as it was instantaneous. He was a member of the famous party of baseball men who, under the management of Al Spalding, made a successful tour aronnd the world. On his return he was released by the Chicago club. He was immediately signed by the Columbus, club.

Final Joined the nttsburgs. Later on he joined the Pittsburg club, and has been a prominent member of that organization ever since. There was a story in Homestead last night that Mark Baldwin was suspected of, having iuruished his fellow citizens with two Winchester rifles on the memora ble morning ot the battle, and that it was for this act that the company had caused his arrest. Bald in pitched against the Brooklyn club on the atternoon of the 6th. He lives in Homestead village and knows almost every man, woman and child in the borough.

Despite the fact that the leading members of the famous Advisory Boaid spent the best part ot the day iu Pittsburg, the men and women of Homestead borough had plenty to think of and talk about yesterday. It was noon when the day as far as Homestead began and it was close onto midnight when it closed. Patrick Moran, who has been working in the Carnegie mills for the last four or live weeks, figured as the hero of the first sensation of the day. These are the tacts iu the case: Wednesday morning Moran drew his wages from the company's office and decided to go to Homestead village and make a day of it He left the works and walked 'down Eighth avenue. Just below the City Farm fence he met a mild-mannered, smooth-spoken stranger, who said he was a dcoutv- sheriff Moran suggested that they retire to a neighboring saloon and drink each other's health.

The stranger was agreeable and they went" Several saloons were visited and the pair absorbed more than a dozen drinks. The wanderings of the congenial couple finally brought them to a cale located near the Pemickey station. Ordered Moran Out of Town. As luck would have it a train bound for Pittsburg rumbled up just as the two men were crossing the tracks. The stranger suddenly turned to Moran and in a stenrvoice said: "Here, my man, I'va fooled away enough time uith you; get aboard this train and quit the town for good." "Not on your life," murmured Moran, "I've got a good job down at the mill, and I don't intend to throw it up." Having made this speech, Moran turned on his heel and started up Amity street The "deputy sheriff" followed close behind.

Just as they had crossed the Sixth avenue railroad tracks three more men joined the supposed deputy. Moran started up the hill and the others followed. By a diplomatic blending of force and persuasion Mr. Moran's companion induced him to wander -lrom the precincts ot the town. Then, to his surprise and disgust, they knocked him down, and after taking 525 from his pockets beat him into insensibility.

Several hours later Moran staggered into Major Crawford's tent, who is acting Provost Marshal in tho absence of Colonel Mechlins. After telling his story Moran was carried to the hospital in the mill yard. He is very badly battered up and late last night it was reported that his condition was most serious. Anotlifir Arrest Blade by Wall. Midway between 2 and 3 o'clock in the afternoon, Frank P.

Curry was arrested 'by Borough Officer Wall, while walking on the Pemickey tracks just above 'the company fence. According to Officer Wall, Mr. Curry was drunk and disorderly. He was taken to the lockup and will be given a hearing before 'Squire Oefuner this morning. John Weaver, a non-union man employed in the mills, moved his family and furniture from his house on Fourth avenue into the mill yard late yesterday afternoon.

A crowd of women and children and a single star, Joseph Hallis, witnessed the proceedings. There was a deal of talk and Hallis made himself especially prominent by hissing the men engaged in loading the furniture on the trucks. Colonel CAUGHT PITCHER and a squad of After It was all over Colonel Gray de clared that he would make against the Homestead women for unlawful gathering and inciting a riot Last night's meeting of the Advisory Board lasted over two hours bat yielded nothing in the way ot news.

THEEE HOKE AESESTED. Hugh Boss Surrenders and Gets Balled While Wo Others Are Arrested. Patrick McCool was brought to Alderman McMasters' office last evening about 8:30 o'clock on a charge of aggravated riot, preferred by Secretary Lovejoy. He offered no defense nor did he make any statement He was committed to jail in default of $2,000 to have a hearing on Monday morning next Hugh Boss, one of the Homestead strikers for whom Alderman McMasters has had a warrant, gave himself up to the 'Squire yesterday afternoon. He had heard that there was a warrant for him and surrendered himseIC Bail was furnished in the sum of 52, 000.

Peter Moran-, another striker, was arrested yesterday moraine, but waived a hearing and furnished a 2,000 bond. ONLY ONE ON RECORD. A Colored Man Is tlin First Person Who Evrrltspald the Department of Pnblio Charities Chief Elliot Will Hns Ills Picture on the Wa'l. For the first time in the annals of the Department of Public Charities, a person who received a benefit from this source, has, reimbursed the department Nearly everyone of the people who apply for aid say will return the amount given them as soon as they are able. Chief Elliot ordered recently that the first person ho kept his word in this regard should receive the honor of having a large picture of himself placed above the mantel in the large room of the department's building.

Some 20.000 to 30,000 persons have received benefits lrom the city, but until last week, never a cent has been returned. While Chief Eliot was on his vacation a letter was received with 75 cents enclosed from Julius Casper, dated Freedom, Pi The contents ot the unusual parcel were not understood by those in charge and it was laid away for the Chiefs examination on his return. After giving some attention to the matter Chief Eliot found it was from a colored man who applied to him for a ticket to Phillipsbtirg some years ago and the 75 cints was to reimburse the city for the money advanced him. "This is the first case of this kind in all mv 13 vears' experience in this department," said Chief Elliot. "We have had lots of promises, but nary a one has ever been kept Following the understanding we had about the, first person who should do this, I wrote Julius Casper a letter askine him lor a tin type or photograpn of himself, stating that we desired to have a large picture of him made to place above our mantle piece as a token of our appreciation of his honesty and veracity.

We intend to place the picture there, tor the man's honesty is worthy ot some consideration, especially as he is one of 30,000." Julius Casper works in a stone quarry and now lives at Freedom. He has doubtless received the Chiefs letter by this time and his picture will soon be a decoration of the department's building one that will make Chief Eliott's bosom swell with pride as he gazes upon it, being fully convinced of the fact that there is at least' one honest man in the world. ALDEBHAN DOUGHTY BELEASED, Ho Is In Good Health and Spirits and Still Affirms Ills Innocanc-. At 7:45 o'clock yesterday morning ex-Alderman David Dougiijy, of the Sixteenth ward, was liberated from the workhouse after serving 10 months and 23 days for conspiracy. He was met at the door by his wile and 12-year-old daughter.

bidding the workhouse officials goodbybe entered a carriage with his wife and child and the three were driven to their home in this city. Mr. Doughty still firmly asserts his innocence of the crime of wliich he was convicted, and says be is not guilty of any of the dealings ot the Blander gang, in which be says he was implicated by a gang in whose way he stood politically. In personal appearance the ex-Alderman does not now differ much from tiie time he entered the workhouse. When he went there he weighed 210 pounds, but has fallen off 22 pounds.

He says he is enjoying the best ot health, although his friends thought when he went to the institution that he would never come out alive, being broken down in health. Mr. Doughty praises the workhouse officials for thefcind treatment which they accorded him tiuring his stay there. "The first five weeks he was put in charge of the engine of the cooper department and the remainder of the time had charge of the pump station engine. He" says he was allowed the freedom of the place at all times.

He will not say anything 'as to bis future, but says he will spend a few weeks privately with his family and friends. HABEBS HELD 70S C0TJBT. The Assailant of the Workhonso Watchman Bound Over In 83,000 Bal'. Charles Habers, the assailant of J. W.

Eberhart, a keeper at the Workhouse, was held for court yesterday to answer three charges, those of felonious assault and Bat terv, larceny and escape.

He immediately issued a call for all the heads of the city departments to meet yesterday afternoon for the purpose ol immediate action on cleaning the city, preparatory to the possible cholera scourge. He says that the city will be thoroughly cleaned at once if it takes a thousand men.

Every nook, corner and cranny of every alley, as well as the streets, he says, is to, be to regardless ot expense. He thinks it folly to believe the cholera will not reach this section, as it has been here before. As to the question of his power to act in the matter, he will not wait for a meeting of Councils as it will take two or three days but he wilr be guided by the chiels ot departments. For Assault and Battery. Charles Damns entered suit before Alderman Donovan yesterday charging Benjamin Peifer with assault and battery.

II Gray, chief of the dopy ties, soldiers scattered the crowd.

SHE VISITED CORBETT. A Prominent Society Belle of Pittsburg Calls on the Fighter. HER OPINION 0P THE PUGILIST. He Said He Considered Himself Away iboTe His Profession. THE YOUNG LADT 18 ENTHUSIASTIC A prominent society lady of Pittsburg visited Corbett at his training quarters at Asbury Park recently and had quite a conversation with the pugilist Dr.

E. A. Woods, of Ellsworth avenue, is a particular friend of the young lady, and in a letter recently received by him from her she relates her experience with the noted fighter. The young lady says: "I went to see Corbett the other morning before leaving Asbury Park, and I passed with him the pleasantest honr or my stay there. The cottage at which he is stopping is delightfully situated on Deal Lake, adjoining the athletic grounds, but somewhat isolated from other habitation.

The rooms are large and airy, with hardwood floors and rugs, and the general impression conveyed to one is of culture and comfort We were on the piazza at first, but alter a few moments Mr. Corbett asked me into his private sanctum. A Pugilist With Courtly Manners. "After placing an easy chair for me, which, by the by, he did in a manner that might be imitated by some society young men to' their advantage; seating himself in his own particular chair at his desk, we proceeded to talk. Of course the approaching fight was 'the' topic.

"I frankly told him I had not liked the look of him when I had seen him training a few days before, and that I thought bim a bit to thin he smiled, and just as frankly acknowledged that he thought so himself. He now weighs 192 pounds, dressed (stands 6 feet 1 inches), strips at 183, and expects to fight at that, but would like ten pounds more. I saw and felt bis arms they are more like any other hard substance than flesh. There can be no doubt about the quality of him, the only question in my opinion is quantity. It he whips Sullivan it will be the triumph of science over slugging, as it were.

His is in the fullest sense of the term the art of self defense, bis methods being tbe very antithesis of Sullivan's, which consist wholly in heavy slugging. Corbett's tactics are to defend himself and reserve bis strength in the beginning, then on the homestretch he slugs. Sullivan being probably a poor stayer, Corbett confidently expects to win. Bend His New PlnjJ "He read me the first act of his new play, 'Oent(eman all that nas finished, but gave me an outline of the rest He is only, called upon once during the entire play to give an exhibition of his pugilistic powers. He told me that he liked the stage much better than the ring the latter is purely business with him.

He cares nothing for the kind of glory that attaches to it, and considers himself superior to and apart from pugilists save in a purely business sense. He is, too 1 believe him to be a gentleman in the best sense certainly he' is a genial, polite man. His is an unusually frank, open countenance, with clear gray eyes that look one steadily in the face. He is a graduate of a college in San Francisco, aud was clerk in a bank there for six years. He has been married several years, has no children.

His wife was absent, so I did not see her. "Some other visitors being announced, I arose to go, wishing him success, and left him after receiving a cordial shake of the hand. The personalitr ot the man is win ning to the last degree may he win is the uppermost wish with me at present And may America come to be proud of James J. Corbett as an American institution." DOHEBTY IS H0HINATED. Ue Is the Democrjtlo Candid ito for the Forty-Third Senatorial District.

The Forty-third Senatorial District Convention of the Democratic party met in Common Council chamber last night and proceeded to select a candidate for that district.
