Mar- Mont- iFIGHTERS’ FRIENDS Admirers of the Pugilists ‘Stick to Their Favorites, ee DELANEY KEEPS A WATCH ON CORBETT Gloves for the Big Fight Have Been Sent to Carson. WORK ON THE AMPHITHEATRE ee CARSON, Nev., February 26.—Until both Corbett and Fitzsimmons have shown the effect of the steady training they are just starting on all prophecies will be valueless. Corbett’s friends stay with him steadily | and are as enthusiastic as ever about his chances, while the admirers of Fitzsim- mans seem to be increasing, a change brought about, no doubt, by the excellent appearance of the Australian. Billy Delaney watches Corbett closely. While thoroughly satisfied with Jim's con- dition, he is somewhat afraid that Jim's desire for work may rob him of some of the steam which he now vossesses and leave him feeling stale around fight time. Delaney has had several talks with Cor- bett on the subject, and Jim has promised to case up a bit. The effect of the Californian’s exertions is only evidert in his face when he finishes work and places himself in the hands of his rubbers. There is no distress of breath- ing; uo dragging of the limbs and droop- ing of the shoulders, but his features for a few minutes have a drawn appearance. When splashed with alcohol and with witchhazel and his flesh is slapped and kneaded by his handlers the color returns in his countenance and the expression disappears. Both Corbett and Delaney ap- pear to be pleased with Jeffries, the latest addition to the former's camp. Of his bout with Corbett Delaney said: “Jeffries is a strong, active fellow and quite clever. He made a very creditable showing. I told him as soon as he put on the gloves to go at Jim and do his level best to land as hard and as often as pos- sible. He carried out my instructions to the letter, and the result was a right good exhibition. Corbett's felnts bothered Jeff- ries considerable, but, nevertheless, he be- haved splendidly. Jim hit aim pretty hard, but the Los Angeles boy took the hard knocks in good part, showing that he is a game fellow and just the right man to give Cerbett plenty of hard work. In point of reach and height Jeffries and the champion are very evenly matched, and they shaped up well. I thought Jim was a dead one after his fight with Sharkey, but his bout with Jeffries completely changed my mind. Corbett never sparred with better judgment in his life. He also showed his old-time speed. I was very agreeably surprised by his work. I new feel that Jim can’t lose.’’ Dates to Be Left Open. Stuart has decided to leave the dates for the Green-Smith and Faherty-Hawkins con- tesis open for the present. It is rumored that they will take place on March 18, but Stuart reserves the right to send the men into the ring on any date from March 16 to 18, inclusive. Stuart till, confined to his room. The warmer weather conditions are already be- ginning to show thfir effect on him, hew- , and he looks stronger than at any time since the beginhing of his illness. His doctors promise; to have him on the street again by Sunday. The amphitheater work is going ahead rapidly. Over a hundred men are now em- ployed on the building, and this number will be doubled at the beginning of next week. Tickets are being asked for in large blocks. Sulinm Cireumvented. SAN FRANCISCO, February 26.—The Me- chanics’ Pavilion in this city has been se- | cured by Corbett’s agent for an exhibition to take place there on March 18 or 19. In accordance with instructions from W. A. Brady, Alf Ellinghouse secured the pa- vilion, thereby circumventing Julian, who arrived here later, with the same object in view. Ellinghouse said last evening that Cor- bett would probably spar a four-round or five-round bout with either Sullivan or Maher in the event of his winning the fight. When Harry Corbett returned to Nevada last night he took the silk flags that will decorate Jim’s corner during the fight. One of the flags has the stars and stripes, while the other is the emblem of Ireland. He also took a trunk full of gymnasium ap- paratus. Wm. A. Brady ts expected to arrive in San Francisco today. Gloves to Be Used March 17. CHICAGO, February 26.—In an express package that left this city for Carson City late last night were four pairs of the finest boxing gloves that experience and skill could make. They are the ones that will incase the hands of Corbett and Fitasim- mons when time is called for the big fignt March 17. They were rially designed a maker of this city, who took the measurements of the hands of the men some time ago, when Dan Stuart gave him | the order. There are two pairs for | man. Hach glove weighs over fi | just enough over to make weight. They are of the finest veivet- tanned dogskin, and stuffed with selected curled hair. The cuffs or wrists are extra | long and well stuffed, and the fronts are | laced with heavy ribbons. They contain a | patent safety grip, the inside being so made that the fighter can clinch his fists firmly. Game Between the Washington and Regent Hockey. Teams. The Washington and Regent hockey teams played a tle game at the Convention Hall Ice Palace last night before a large number of spectators, who thoroughly en- joyed the exciting contest. In view-of the previous close game played by these two clubs, many friends of each organization turned out last night, and the result was a gathering that about filled the rink. Neither of the teams was able to score in the first half, and several scrimmages added to the excitement. In the second half the Regents took a spurt and carried the puck to within a short distance of the Washington’s goal, when Wimsatt, by a clever stroke, sent it through. The play was greeted with the utmost enthusiasm, but _a few moments later McDonald, for the Washington team, duplicated the trick, and the score was a tie. After this ‘neither team was able to score again, and the game resulted in a score of 1 to 1. * ‘The Regent teamliehowed a marked im- provement in skating and in team work.

Dissatisfaction With the Ticker Re- .Ports of Games. The national board of arbitration of the National Base Ball League was called yes- terday morning at Baltimore, and remained in session until 1 p.m. President Young says they took up several unimportant minor league tangles and straightened them. This board, which is identical with the board of control, consists of President. Young and Messrs. Byrne of Brooklyn, Soden of Boston and Brush of Cincinnati. The league was called to order at pm. Mr. Soden was made chairman, and the minutes of the Jast meeting were read ard approved. According to Mr. Young, this is the first time in twenty-five years that such action has been taken. " Mr. Young was instructed to send a copy of the minutes of every meeting to each club as secon after such meeting as possible. The committee on telegraphic contracts Presented its report, which was finally ac- cepted. During a discussion of the report FOR MEDICINAL USE NO FUSEL OIL The nipping winter air cannot harm Bodies forti- fied by this great medicin- al Stimulant. There is no better protection against Colds. a as oa DUF MALT WHISKEY CO., Rochester, N. Y. of this committee it was determined to take some steps to do away with the “tick- er” reports of the games, at least in the home games in respective cities. If this should not prove feasible, it is thought that the league will endeavor to make the tele- graph companies pay for the privilege of running wires into the various grounds, which may possibly have the effect of bringing about a clash with the telegraph companies. Billy McGonnigle’s case will be settled out of court. The matter was left to two arbiters, each side to choose one. Mac named Dr. Stuckey, former president of the club, and the Louisvilles chose Mr. Abell of Brocklyn to represent their cause. ‘These two gentlemen are given absolute power to adjudicate the difference of about $2,700, which McGonnigle claims is due him a5 balance of '96 salary and full pay for YALE CREW ON THE HARBOR. The Blue's Oarsmen Rowing 2 27 to 30 Stroke. Ceptain Bailey of the Yale crew is mak- irg the most of the present favorable weather with his candidates, and the men are rowing regularly on the harbor. Yes- terday the "Varsity rowed in the new cedar barge, built on the plan of a shell and only forty pounds heavier. Much to the sur- prise of those Interested the second crew distanced the "Varsity by a length in a half-mile race up the Quinnipiac. It is un- usval to reduce the men befcre Easter, but the candidates are far in advance of previous crews and show the good ef- fect of getting on the water early, which is believed to give Yale a big advantaze over Harvard and Cornell. The men are already beginning to raise the stroke, which at present ranges from 27 to 30. Thus far the work has consisted of row- ing short stretches, but as the ice is en- Urely out of the harbor the crew will at once be given long pulls. YALE PLAYS HARVARD Nov. This Puts a Harvard-Princeton Out of the Question. 4 conference between the Yale and Har- ame vard foot ball moguls at New Haven yes- | in a conditional agree- | terday resulted ment to play the annual game between the two to be resumed this year at New Haven November 13. After the meeting Captain Rodgers of the Yale eleven stated that the Prince- ton game would probably be Princeton November 20. It was rumored that the game might be played at Will- iamsbridge, just outside of New York, on | the new grounds of Columbia University. ‘This practically decides that there will be no Harvard-Princeton game this fall. Sutton Defents Mage ti. In the billiard tournament at Pittsburg last night Sutton retrieved his loss to Spinks Tuesday night by defeating Mag- gioli. The game was the poorest of the tournament so far, nelther man playing in his usual form. The contest, however, was very even throughout. pings and McLaughlin will meet tonight. The score was: Sutton, 400; highest run, 52; average, 8 46. Maggioli, 391; highest run, 55; average, 5 23-46. Chicago's Six-Day Race. CHICAGO, Felruary The following was the score of the six-day bicycle race at 10 a.m.- Schinreer, 1,417; Miller, 1,355 Lawson, 1,336; Ashinger, 1,330; Hansen, 1,198; Stewart, 1,194; Hannant, 1,143. Bradis dropped out at 5 a.m. and will not appear ou the track again. Smith left the track at 2:30 this morning, and it is not likely he will re-enter the race. The re- maining contestants are all in good condi- tion. 26. Prize Fig! Bill Beaten. SALT LAKE, Utah, February 26.—Repre- ntative Kenrer’s bill, introduced in the legislature several days ago to legalize prize fighting, was defeated in the house. Harvard Selects June 25. The intercollegiate boat race between the Harvard, Yale and Cornell crews on fhe Hudson river at Poughkeepsie will oc- cur June 25. This date, which is Har- vard’s class day, was voted for by the Harvard men, and the choice will be sent to Yale tomorrow for ratification. A New Athletic Organization. The male teachers and students of the Friends’ Select School have formed an ath- letic association. The officers are Mr. Wil- sen, president; Gould Lincoln, vice presi- Gent; Redfield Proctor, secretary, and Reu- ben Clark, treasurer. Pennsylvania Satisticd With Cornell. An effort has been made in certain quar- ters recently to create the impression that the University of Pennsylvania students are indignant at what is styled Cornell's “desertion of Pennsylvania” in agreeing to enter a boat race with Yale. The Penn- sylvanian, the daily organ of the students of the University of Pennsylvania, says, re- garding the matter: “Cornell has ever been a stanch friend to Pennsylvania, and she has maintained this character throughout the recent negotia- tions. From the beginning she has been strongly in favor of a quintangular race, and only when she saw that the project was impossible did she abandon her de- mands. Her conduct has been entirely sportsmanlike and justifiable, and if any students of Pennsylvania have condemned her for it, they have done so through mis- guided and selfish motives, and have no support from the student body.” Goeckel Signs With Wilkesbarre. Wiiliam Goeckel, who played such a strong first base for the University of Pennsylvania nine two years ago, has been signed for the position by Wilkesbarre for the coming season. His record for last year’s work on the team was: Batting, 393, and fielding, WWI. He lives at Wilkesbarre and is very popular. Duffy to Coach Wesleyan.
