WILL MEET THE PROFESSIONAL TEAMS Steps to Be Taken Soon to Ar- range Preliminaries. PROSPECTS OF SUCCESS > Following right on the heels of the three international cricket matches in this town, says the Philadelphia Press, comes the news that the Gentlemen of Philadelphia eleven will take a trip to England next year and play some of the crack elevens on the other side. This, of course, will in no way interfere with the international matches with English elevens in Philadel- phia next fall, for the Americans would be abroad during the two latter weeks of May, the month of June and the first fortnight of July. This matter has been under careful con- sideration for some time, and while no formal meeting has yet been held to adopt resclutions and formulate a letter to send abroad, it has been as good as decided in a certain quarter to take the step In the very near future, probably before the end of the month. The cricketers, whose object it is to send a team to England, wil make inquiries as to the willingness and ability of the play- ers to go. Having seen their way clear in this direction a meeting will be called and a formal letter sent to C. W. Allcock, secre- tary of the Surrey Cricket Club, to make matches for the team in Great Britain. This letter will probably be on the water before November 1. About thirteen men would be in the touring party, and the trip cculd be made at the expense of about $600 per man, or a little less than $8,000, The question of expense will rever enter into the question, not that extravagance will be advocated, but there are too many ardent cricketers in Philadelphia to permit such a project falling through for lack of funds. The Gentlemen of Philadelphia played abroad in 1884 and In 1889, and they can do it again in 1896. On those trips they defrayed all their expenses, the money taken in at the gate being donated to the cricketers’ fund, a sum for the support of old and decrepit players. On_both the former trips the Gentlemen of Philadelphia did not play the full strength of the counties, as they barred the professionals. This time, however, our men will not insist on this and meet the best teams of the counties in which they play. A member of the Gentlemen of Philadel- phia elever that played against the Cam- bridge-Oxford team, in speaking of the Proposed trip yesterday afternoon, said: “We will be gone about eight weeks and play three matches every two weeks, or about a dozen in all. The teams Mr. All- cock will be instructed to schedule us with are the Gentlemen of Ireland, Oxford Uni- versity, Cambridge University, Middlesex, Gloucestershire (the great Grace’s county), Sussex, Leicestershire, Kent, Somerset, Darbyshire and the like. It is very improb- able we will play Yorkshire, Surey and Lan- cashire, as they are the three strongest counties in England now and would be a little too much for us.” “How do the Gentlemen of Philadelphia rank with the English county teams?” was asked. “We will probably lose more games than we win; about seven out of twelve, say.” “How will our players show up on the other side?” “Our men will bat better on the English wickets than on our own, and I think our bowlers will do equally as well abroad as at home.” ANOTHER FOR CLEVELAND. Exons ca py Wins Yenterday’s Game Baltimoreans. ed won yesterday’s game for the Temple cup at Cleveland for the Cleve- lands. The Baltimores could not touch him. He pitched the game with the thumb nail of his right hand torn loose. It hap- pened in the second inning. Carey batted a stinging grounder toward center field, and Cuppy threw out his hand and tried to stop the ball. By that operation he nearly lost his thumb nail. Blood spurted from the wound, and it looked as though Cleve- land would havo to be in the dumps for the remainder of the week, but the sturdy player kept in the game, and eventually saved it for his team. Cleveland hit Hof- fer hard. In the first inning Burkett begin with a single to right field. A wild pitch put him on second, and he scored on McKean’s line hit to right. Childs bunted, and McKean went to third McAleer was hit by a pitched ball. Tebeau flied to Keeler and McKean stole home after the put-out, while McAleer went to second. It was an easy task for the latter to score when Zim- mer rapped a long two-bagger to left field. In the second inning Kelley hit McKean end the ball was fumbled. Then two men went out in succession, Carey rapped the grounder that almost disabled Cuppy and MceAleer’s fumble of the hit gave Kelley his run, In the fifth Cleveland scored again. Burkett began by beating an infield hit. McKean tried to sacrifice and was an easy out. Childs forced Kurkett ut second bese. Hoffer tried to catch Childs nap- ping and threw wild, Childs going to third. McAleer hit a hot grounder to Jennings, who fumbled the ball, and Childs scored.

HARRY WRIGHT’S CAREER, The Most Widely Known Man in Base Ball Circles. Harry Wright, chief of umpires of the National League of Base Ball Clubs and ex-manager of the Philadelphia National League club, whose death was announced in yesterday’s Star, was sixty years of age. He was taken ill in Philadelphia ten days ago, and thovght a trip to the seashore would be beneficial. He grew worse. He had catarrhal pneumonia. Harry Wright was the most widely known and perhaps the best posted base ball man of the times. Honest in his dealings with managers and players, he established an enviable reputation. He was born in Eng- land in 1835, but came to this country with his parents a year later. His_ athletic career began as a cricketer. He played with the St. George Cricket Club of ae York when but fifteen years of commenced t> play base ball in 1857 Stes he was center fielder for the famous Knick- erbockers of New York. In 1866 he went to Cincinnati and helped to organize the famous Cincinnati Red Stockings. During the season of 1869 the Red Stockings traveled all over the United States without losing a game. It was while a member of this club that Harry W: right, in a game at Newport, Ky., June 2: made seven home runs, the record ‘to ay. In 1871 he was engaged to play center field_and captain the Boston club. After the National League was organized Harry's Boston team won the championship of that organization in the seasons of 1877 and 1878. He remained with the Boston club until the end of the season of 1881. He was engaged in 1882 to manage the Providence club, and it finished second in the championship race that season and third in 1883. Harry Wright in was engaged to manage the Philadelphia club, with which he remained until the close of the season of 1898, when he was made chief of the league staff of umpires, a position which was created for him, and which he held at the time of his death. MIGHT MEET IN MEXICO. this Corcession Granted for an Athletic and Bull Fighting Exhibition. Charles Campbell-and several other par- ties In San Antonio, among them a Mexican official, have made a proposition to Dan Stuart to get a concession in Mexico to pull off the fights there. Stuart has agreed if absolute immunity from interference {s guaranteed. The gen- tlemen, who have very high and influential connections in Mexican official life, have received telegrams announcing that the states of Chihuahua and Coahulla and Ta- maulipas had granted comessions to pull eneral athletic and bul. fichting ex- ” in those states Octoner 31. Which, if any, of these concessions will be used ‘will not be determined for several days. If the Chihuahua should be used, the fight will come off at Juarez, which 1s just across the river from El Paso. Laredo ard Diaz are the towns in the other two states. Each town will be asked to contribute toward the expense, and the amount of the contributions will be an element in selecting the place. The concessions carry with them an absolute guarantee of non-interference. There is a bull ring at each place capable of seating from 18,000 to 20,000 people. These will have to be repaired, and the railroads touching these points have volun- teered to defray the expenses of repa®ing them. The parties who have received the con- cessions are under contract to turn them cver to Dan Stuart free of cost. They are to get their remuneration from the bull fights. Already they have contracts with the famous troup of toreadors in Mexico, and have received six bulls, which are sald to be the most ferocious animals in the country. Little Chance in Indian Territory. Judge Kilgore of the Indian territory says: “I am against prize-fighting under any and all circumstances, and will do anything in my power to prevent the mill taking place in the Choctaw nation south- ern district.” Marshal Stoll says fight.” ‘United States Attorney Cruce say: “There 1s ample authority under the cr inal laws in force here to prevent the mill taking place in the Chickasaw nation, and the fight will not be permitted to take place in the southern district.” Lem Burruss of Stonewall, the newly ap- pointed national secretary of the Chicka- saw nation, says that the members of the Chickasaw legislature, now in session, are opposed to the fight. Gov. Culberson of Texas signed the anti- prize fight bill yesterday afternoon. Gov. Gardner's Opposition. The Choctaws are sanguine that the coun- cil, which meets at Tuskahoma next Mon- day, will pass an anti-prize fight bill sim- ilar to the one passed by the Texas legisla- ture. Governor Gardner is a full-blood Choctaw Indian, and his opposition to the fight will rival even that of Governor Cul- berson. The statutes of Arkansas of 1884 are in force in this country, and they are silent so far as they pertain to prize fight- ing, and there is nothing in the federal statute books which would warrant the marshal to take a hand to prevent the fight coming off. The Attorney General has sig- nified his willingness to call out the militia to the assistance of the Choctaw tribe, if requested to do so. It is not believed that the principal chief has the authority to call upon the United States government to prevent the fight In the absence of a law prohibiting it on the statute books of the Choctaw nation. Unless the bill is passed there is nothing bere to prevent the mill being pulled off. If it were possible for the Florida Athletic Club to get permission of the council, then the federal authorities would not interfere, even if requested to do so by Governor Gardner. A representative of Dan Stuart was at Atoka yesterday, and the general impres- sion is that an attempt will be made to secure a place two miles below, on Boggy creek, for the scene of the contest. It is about three hours’ run from Dallas, on the M. K. and T. railroad. Sufficient lumber can be had to build an inclosure. President Dan Stuart of the Florida Ath- letic Club wired from Dailas last night as foliow “Everything loo! favorable for arrangements being completed within twen- ty-four hou: t present no one knows which way my face is turned, but when [ “I am opposed to the give location out, I am certain I have it clinched.”” California Mentioned. A San Francisco paper says there is a strong probability that an effort will be made to have the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight take place in San Mateo county, Cal. under the auspices of the Colma Athletic Club. Months ago some prominent San Francisco sporting men got the officials in San Mateo county to allow prize fighting. A strong undercurrent of influence was brought to bear on those officials, and the several fights which have been held at Col- ma would not justify the amount of pres- sure which was put in motion to get the franchise. It is openly stated that the prize-fighting permit at Colma was obtained with a view of getting some big fight, the Corbett-Fitz- simmons physical contest preferred. Dan Stuart, the manager of the fight, said yesterday that he had three places in view, two of which he named as Mexico and the Indian territory. ‘The third place he omitted to mention. It is believ2d that he had California in mind. TOMORROW'S ATHLETIC MEET. Capt. Riordan of Cambridge Picks Out His Starters. Nothing remains undone in ihe way of preparations for the great Yale-Cambridge dual athletic meet tomorrow on Manhat- tan field, New York. Alexander Jordan, who was starter for the New York-Lon- don Athletic Clubs’ games, will act in the same capacity tomorrow. The experiment of conducting a meet with only nine field officials will be tried. It is an English idea. Capt. Riordan of Cambridge has decided upen his first and second strings. as fol- ue with the order of events as they will run: 10-yard run—Lewin and Wilding. 128-yard hurdle race over cinders—Fletch- er and Pilkington. High jump—Johnson and Jennings. 300-yard run—Fitzherbert and Lewin. Putting the 16-nound shot—Watson. Half-mile run—Horan. Broad jump—Mendelson and Jennings. One-mile rnn—Luytens and Davenport. Throwing 16-pound hammer—Johnson and Jennings. Quarter-mile run—Fitzherbert and Lewin. 120-yard hurdle race over turf—Fietcher and Pilkington. McDONALD WON THE GOLF CUP. The Chicago Player Had No Difficulty in Winning From Sands. Charles B. McDonald of Chicago won the match yesterday at Newport in the finals in the national geclf tournament, with Charles E. Sands of St. Andrew's Club of New York, and therefore took the United States championship and the association's gold medal, a silver one going to Sands. On the whole, the westerner’s task was a light one. Sands utterly failed to push him to any great extent, and the match amounted to a practice game for McDon- ald. But he reeled off holes at a rapid rate in the afternoon's play, giving the specta- tors an idea of how he might play. Sands, however, gives great promise, and, were he to stick to golf, would make a strong bid for higher honors next year. He cleariy lacked form, wherein McDonald is very strong. Summary: Finals—Charles B. McDonald, Chicago, beat Charles E. Sands, St. Andrew, 12 up and 11 to play, holes, by strokes for 3 rounds. McDonald, 44, 44, 44-132. Sands, 54, 47, GO—161. ‘The prizes of the meeting are as follows: Champlon gold medal, C. McDonald, Chi- cago; silver medal, second prize, C. E. Sands, New York; bronze meSal, third prize, Dr. Charles Claxton, Philadelphia; bronze medal, fourth prize, F. J. Amory, Brookline, Mass. YALE AND HARVARD. A Foot Ball Ultimatum is Expected Before Sunday. It is thought that before Sunday there will be some sort of a Yale-Harvard foot ball ultimatum announced. The managers of both elevens announce that after Saturday the:r schedules will be completed and that ro games will be arranged then. Yale and Harvard have three days left open about the middle of November, which were left so expressly to allow for the possibility of a Yale-Harvard game on one of them. Many Harvard graduates have expressed satisfaction at the withdrawal of Professor Ames from the Harvard athletic advisory committee, as they have regarded him as the chief obstacle to a Yale-Harvard game this fall. Outside his management of the Yal-Harvard foot ball trouble this spring they express the greatest admiration for his management of Harvard athletics. No Show for Men Like Sullivan, The Cleveland Athletic Association ap- plied yesterday to Mayor McKisson for per- mission to conduct a boxing exhibition in which John L, Sullivan, Paddy Ryan and others were to participate. The mayor re- fused in the following written words: “Your request for permission to hold a sparring exhibition October 5, in which John L, Sul- livan and others shall figure, is refused. I feel that such an exhibition in w pro- fessionals of the reputation of Sullivan Mig- ure should be discouraged in every possible way, and am, therefore, compelled to refuse your request.” s Pool Tourney of Elks. The crack pool piayers of the Elks are taking part in a tournament at the club house, 1006 E street. The tournament open- ed Monday night, which resulted in the fol- lowing scores: W. H.

Last evening William P. Harding defeated Tom Wilkinson, jr., giving him ten points, by 50 to 39. The preliminary contests will terminate Saturday night, and next week the winners and losers will play for handsome prizes. Freeborn Captain of Cornell's Crew.

Dr. Fernia takes a bicycle spin every afternoon, the weather permitting. Yesterday he was riding along Rush street when his wheel struck a stone, throwing him into an open carriage that was pass- ing. In the carriage was Dr. Darling. Dr. Fernia apologized for the prank of his wheel and handed Dr. Darling his card. Dr. Darling laughingly accepted the apol- ogy and gave Dr. Fernia his card.
