GENERAL SPORTING NEWS HOT SPRINGS, Ark., October 22.—It may yet develop that Corbett and Fitzsimmons will meet. Stuart and Vendig now state that in view of Fitzsimmons’ arbitrary stand, the contract between the club and the fighters, in so far as it relates to Fitz- simmons, is abrogated. The club stands now ready to offer a new contract, which comprehends a mcdifica- tion of the purse offered to $25,000 at the most, and the fixing of the date of battle two or possibly three weeks later than the original date. Vendig and Stuart are a unit on this point. Vendig this morning got a telegram from J. J. Quinn, Maher's backer, offering to bet $5,000 on the Irishman if the match between Corbett and Maher can be made. Julian is still here and has till noon to make another application for a purse. EL PASO SUGGESTED. Corbett Will Be Invited to Fight Fitzsimmons There. EL PASO, Tex., October 22.—A telegram was received here from the Fitzsimmons People at Corpus Christi, stating that Cor- dett will be invited to meet Fitzsimmons for a fight to a finish at El Paso. Fitz- simmons refused to enter into a “pillow throwing” contest with Corbett at Hot Springs, because he had assurance that a fight to a finish could be brought off at El Paso. FITZSIMMONS STUBBORN. Stuart Says He Wouldn't Agree to Any Proposition. President Dan A. Stuart of the Florida Athletic Club last night gave the follow- ing statement to a representative of the Associated Press: “At the outset,” began Mr. Stuart, must be conceded that I was right. I do not think there was any question to that Froposition when it is taken into considera- tion that I have maintained from the start that I was right. The fact that I was right is demonstrated when it is recollected that it took an extraordinary session of the legislature of the state of Texas to make me wrong. This after the highest crimi- nal tribunal of the state had adjudged me right. I am then confronted with special legislation, which outlaws and makes null and void that which I had engaged in un- der the strict letter of the law. I seek other coigns. One is afforded me here in the stute of Arkansas. Every inducement is made me to bring off the contest here. “I ask for a postponement of eleven days. Mr. Corbett was willing. Mr. Fitzsimmons was not. To my offer to add a purse of $10,0.0 en the heels of Fitzsimmons’ propo- sition to meet Corbett in private on Octo- ber 31, Mr. Julian, acting for Fitzsim- mens, demurred. He would have the con- test take place on October 31, or not at all. I am not a self-opinionated man, but I con- tended that if it was worth Fitzsimmons’ while to fight on October 31, it were bet- ter to wait eleven days and win $10,000 more. In fairness, and in view of the fact that I was entitled to some concessions. even though at a personal loss, I thought that Messrs. Julian and Fitzsimmons should agree to defer the meeting for the period stated. I stand ready to make good any proposition I have ever made. Originally the men signed to meet anywhere the Florida Athlet’c Club named after the first day of July. With this latitude, which embraces pretty nearly every point of the compass, why then should they not agree on a post- pcrement of eleven short days? “Yes, my offer is now permanently with- drawn. I am unwilling to believe that any fair proposition will meet the approval of Fitzsimmons. I have no particular. liking for the present champion, yet I must ac- cord him that which is his due. He saw the plight in which the Florida Athletic Club was placed, and appeared willing to accommodate himself to circumstances.

William A. Brady, Corbett’s manager, last night made the following statement: “The action of Fitesimmdhs today is no surprise to me. I have ted it for weeks. Mr. Fitzsimmons never been sincere in his desire to meet Corbett. He has not sufficient nerve to face Corbett in a ring or anywhere else. Hé4is not in Cor- bett’s class as a pugilist or g.man, and his every action in this whol £ matter has proved it. He is a very byaye man when Pitted against undersized middle weights or second-class heavy weights, but when it came time to face the champion, he has weakened just as I thoughthe would. “Corbett will pay no mogg, attention to Fitzsimmons or his bluffs and will probably retire from the ring.” JACK DEMPSEY DYING. The Former Champion’s Hours Are Numbered. PORTLAND, Oreg., October 22.—Jack Dempsey is dying. Within the past few days he has been rapidly sinking, and it 1s announced that his hours are numbered. He has tried a change to country air, but with ttle apparent benefit. His physicians allow few of the pugilist’s friends to see him. Dempsey realizes his condition, and says it Is due to the blow he received at the hands of Fitzsimmons, four years ago, but his friends say st is consumption. Since his return to his home here, some months ago, Dempsey has absolutely refused to talk to reporters about prize fighting. SIMS’ TIME WAS BEST. Th: Road Race of the Dupont Cycle Clup, ‘The road race of the Dupont Club was held on the Conduit road yesterday after- noon, and attracted a large crowd of cyclists and drivers to the course, just above Georgetown. This even has been looked forward to by the roaé riders for some time past with great interest, as good prizes were up, and a healthy rivalry had been aroused between the crack riders of the city. There were thirty-seven entries, and when the starters took positions thirty- five were ready to start. The day was an ideal one for a road race, that 1s, for the lookers-on. A heavy wind made record time impossible, however. ‘The race was well contested all through, twenty-one riders coming in. ‘The winners came in as follows: Allowance. 9% inin, Time prizes were awarded as follows: W-. F. Sims, scratch, 59 minutes 36 seconds, first prize; T. N. Mudd, second prize; C. Leatherbury, third prize. IVES AGAINST THE WORLD. Is Willing to Meet Any Billiard Player for $10,000 a Side. “J ‘will play any man in the world for $10,000 a side.” The young man who made this rather startling announcement in Maurice Daly's billiard room on Broadway, New York, the other afternoon spoke as carelessly, as in- differently, as if proposing a game for the cigars. It was Frank C. Iyes,the “Young Napoleon of Billiards.” “I would prefer to play, Vignaux, the Frenchman,” said Ives, in speaking of his $10,000 challenge, “and am- willing to con- cede him 1,000 points in 6,@00—that is, play ten nights, he to make 500 pgints a night and I 6W. I beat him twiee while in Paris, and he agreed to play me tor $10,000 a side. I posted $2,500 as a forfeit, but have heard nothing of him since regarding the match. He wanted to come over here and have a match on the split-the-gate-money plan, but there was nothing in that for me, and I refused. I do not wishj to direct a challenge at any one else, but/am ready to concede any player 1,000 points in 6.000, fourteen-inch-balk-line, for $10,000 a side. “Would that include Schaefer?” “Anybody in the world,” {replied Ives. Schaefer Sayn It Looks’ Like a Blut. CHICAGO, October 22,—When Jake Schaé- fer was informed of Frank Ives’ proposition to play for $10,000 and give odds, he said: “That looks like a bluff to’'mé. He knows well that I have not got a backer that can stand for that amount. There was a time,” he continued, “when I could command backing to the extent of $20,000, but I never asked anybody to play me for that amount. I was always willing to play for from $500 up, which I considered a fair proposition. _I have beaten Ives oftener than he has defeated me, and do not under- stand why he should offer me odds or why I should accept any. If he fs really anxious for a match, or for such a match, I will play him at 14 or 18-inch balk line, cushion caroms and straight rail for $500 or $1,000 a side, the winner to take all the gate re- celpts, games to be played in New York or Chicago.”” TURFME) AGITATED. The Ruling Off of Baldwin’s Horses Cauxes Excitement. Wherever turfman gather the action of the Morris Park stewards in practically ruling off “Lucky” Baldwin's horses is dis- cussed and commended. Racing officials in the east have been so lenient with this stable that it seemed almost impossible to stir official apathy into action. It is incon- ceivable that a whole stable of prominent horses could perform so inconsistently as the Baldwin horses have performed on the theory that they have been run honestly. There has not been the slightest friction with the police at the Morris Park track. “The police are working with us,” said Au- gust Belmont Saturday. “We all have in view the sanie thing—the enforcement of the law. If there are any violations we want to know of them at once, so that we can stop them.” The feature of this week's racing will be the Municipal handicap, at a mile and three-quarters, to be run Thursday, the gross value of which will be $3,500), Al- thcugh Henry of Navarre carries top-we'ght —130 pounds—he will be the favorite. A NOVEL RACE TO BE RUN. A Contest Between Horselexs Carri- ages for a Distance of 100 Miles, The motocycle, or horseless carriage, race from Chicago to Waukegan and return, a distance of about 100 miles, will be con- tested Saturday, November 2. From in- dications there will be not less than forty starters in the great race. It is expected that several of the motocycles will make the distance in less than six hours. ‘The following judges have been selected: Major General Wesley Merritt, command- ing the department of the Missouri; Prof. Jobn P. Barrett, city electrician of Chicago, and formerly chief of electficity of the world’s fair, and Henry Timken of St. Louis, president of the National Carriage Builders’ Association. Major General Mer- ritt has selected Lieutenant Luddington as his assistant. Professor Barrett has named Leland L. Summers, editor,of the Electrical Engineer, and President Timken has named C. F. Kimball, the Chicago carriage manu- facturer, as his first assistant. All contestants must pass_ preliminary tests, which will be held dn Oetober 29, 3 and ‘31, at which time all impracticable vehicles will be debarred from the contest of November 2. Several motocycles from France and Germany are efftered in the race. Joe Elliott Knocked Out, “Joe” Elliott, the 125-pound champion of Maryland, was knocked out in,nine rounds last night by “Joe” Gans, the colored champion, at the Eureka Athletic Club of Baltimore. It was a most unexpected turn in affairs, and Gans was as much surprised as the spectators. Sporting Notes. During the progress of a practice game of foot ball on the White Lot yesterday Henry D. Goldschmid, the captain of the Emerson eleven, had his left hand quite badly injured, although it is thought that there will not be any serious result from the mishap. Lord Dunraven received a visit from the mayor of Cardiff yesterday and accepted an invitation delivered by him to attend a banquet in that city. He also promised on that occagion to make a statement of the America’stcup races which would throw an entirely new light upon the event. ‘At the National Sporting Club, in Lon- don, last night, in a ten-round contest, the Howard’s Corset Emporium, 1003 F St., Adjoining Boston-Dry Goods House.
