DEFEAT OF COLUMBIA BOWLERS Kid McCoy Claims the Pugilistic Championship. EASTERN BASE BALL LEAGUE The basket ball team of the Eastern Athletic Club Gefeated Mount Pleasant Athletic Club in a game last night at the Washington Light Infantry Hall by the score of 5 to 2. In the first inning the Mount Pleasants were given two free throws for rough playing and foul work on the part of the Easterns. On this account Umpire Adam Johnson was obliged to stop the game on several occasions and caution the play- ers against a continuance of the same. The Easterns succeeded in earning but one goal before the gong was sounded at the ending of the rst inning. In the sec- ond and third innings the Easterns made two goals each, all from the field. The Mount Pleasants, while they put up an excellent game, could not catch up to their opponents. snappy, The game was quick and and the passing and goal throwing of the Easterns were features of the game. For the Easterns Dunn, Gates and Roab did fine work, while Smith, Holmead and Mueller shared honors. The line-up: -Ockert liflower goals—E. A. C., Dunn, 3: 5 throws—Mt. P. A. C., Mueller, 2.

The Columbia Athletic Club bowling team took a tumble in South Washington last night, at the hands of the Business Men's Bowling Club. The Columbia boys bowled peorly in all the games, securing but one game over the 700 mark. Business bowled ccmparatively small scores as well, but had no trouble in capturing the series. Shlesinger again did good work for his team, his score of 188 in the final game be- ing the highest individual string on either side, and leading both teams with an aver- age of 178. Stitt, as usual, did good work for Columbia, averaging 163. The first poodle made for some time past was rolled by Walker last night, and he is now a candidate for Mr. Korn’s prize. The visitors made a poor start in the opening game, securing but 46 pins in the first inning. They virtually lost the game in this frame, as the game was close throughout, the Business Men winning by but 34 pins. The score follows: CL.,COL’BIA ATH. CLUB. Se. St.Sp. Se. BUS.

He Says He is Rendy to Defend the Title Against AN Comers. Kid McCoy withdrew the $5,000 forfeit money which was placed with Richard K. Fox when McCoy challenged Fitzsim- mons and Corbett, several months ago, and has anrounced himself champion heavy-weight pugilist of the world. Me- Coy will now accept all challenges from heavy-weight pvgilists and has signed to fight Gus Ruhlin within twelve weeks, probably at San Francisco. “We have had $5,000 on deposit in New York for several weeks to cover McCoy’: money or the money of any other pugilist,” said.

Court Issues an Order on Petition of Receiver Schoepf. Receiver W. Kesiey Schoepf of the Belt Railway Company today presented, through his attorney, Mr. John Ridout, a petition to Judge Cox, in Equity Court No. 1, ask- ing that he be granted authority to sell certain property of the railway company. Mr. Schoepf, in his petition, explains that among the property of the Belt Company in his possession as receiver are about twenty-five unused box cars, a number of open cars and a lot of old and useless ma- terial anc equipment, also a water meter at 3d and B streets southwest. The box cars, according to Receiver Schoepf, would Probably sell for abou®$200 each. None of the property mentioned, Receiv- er Schoepf goes on to say, is of any use in the present operation of the road, nor would it, in his opinion, add anything to the value of the property in the event of its sale, as a purchaser would attach prac- tically no value thereto in considering the question of purchase. It is necessary that funds to provide for the operating expenses of the road be im- mediately obtained, it is added, and Re- ceiver Schoepf states the belief that he can sell the properiy in question for cash as second-hand material, and thereby raise a sum which will be very helpful in the present situation of affairs. On the strength of the petition and with the understanding that counsel for all the parties interested in the road consented, Judge Cox signed an order authorizing the receiver to sell the property, either at pub- lic or private sale for cash, and at such price as-he shall deem best, and to use the proceeds in paying the current operating expenses of the railway. It is stipula that the sale shall be reported to the court for its approval and for its direction as to the disposition of the proceeds of the sale. > ANACOSTIA HAPPENINGS.
