SCENE SELECTED FOR THE MILL. Governor Culberson of Texas Signed the Bill Making Prize- Fighting a Felony. PARIS, Tex., Oct. 3.—Since the special session of the Texas Legislature enacted a law prohibiting the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight from being pulled off in the State the management of the Florida Athletic Club has been forced to look elsewhere fora base of operations, in so far as the fight it- self is concerned. Developments to-day show decidedly that the club has lest no valuable time and to-night it is safe to predict that the fight will occur in the Choctaw Nation of the Indian Territory, just across the Red River from this city. The National Council of th: Choctaw Nation will. be convened in regular session on Monday next, at which time it is safe to predict that a bill will be intro- duced permitting the fight in the Choctaw Nation, and in additicn it is stated to- night upon reliable authority that peti- tions were presented to Indian legislators from the Indians en masse asking the body to extend a tribal invitation to the management of the club and asking them to bring the fight off asindicated. The promptness with which this whole affair has been sprung smacks of the sug- gestions that the Florida Athletic Club people have not been 1dle while the Texas executive has been making his threats. The spot selected is ap ideal one and is particularly easy of access, being only six- teen miles from this city of 20,000 people and only a little over a hundred miles from Dallas via the Santa Fe. There is no doubt as to the ability of Paris and Dallas to jointly entertzin the large crowd of people nor of the Santa Fe to furnish emple equipment to handle the crowds. The run can be made from Dallas in three hours easy enough, if this plan of proced- ure is carried out, and, as it doubtless will, it is safe to indicate that a larger crowd will attend this fight between the pugilistic giants than was first anticipated. gt PRIZE-FIGHTING 4 FELONY. Governor Oulbersom Lost No Time in Signing the Biil. AUSTIN, Tex., Oct. 3.—The anti-prize- fight bill, which was paseed by both houses yesterday, was sent to the Gov- ernor this afternoon by the Senate, and he signed it at 5 o’clock. and it is now a law. Governor Cnlberson received many con- gratulatory telegrams from every section to-day. and he says he feels very proud in the way the lLegislaturé has backed him up in the matter. The Representatives say that private information to them from their bomes gives evidence that in voting to quarantine prize-fighting from Texas soil they have done that which meets with universal approval. The excitement being over now, the hotel lobbies are clear. The Legislature will adjourn sine die Monday, and in the meantime consider some bills | purely of a local nature. CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex.,, Oct. 83— When asked to-day what he thought of the passage of the prizefight law Manager Julian said: ““We are sorry the law passed, bat weex- 1ands’ hits were bunched, and most of them connted in the run column. McKean's work at short was gilt-edged. Between 8000 and 10,000 people saw the game, and it wes necessary to establish a two-base hit ground rule. Theteam will rest to-morrow and play the final game of the series in this city Saturday. Young and Hemming will probably do the pitching. Score: Clevelands, 7, 10, 2. Baltimores, 2, 6, 4.

J., Oct. 3.—Harry Wright, the ¥eteran baseball player and manager, died here shortly after 1 o'cloc} | this afterncon from catarrbal pn: umonia after a lingering illness. Harr Wrigh the grand old man of baseball, was tb best-known and by all odds the most popu- lar man ever connected with the great American game, and be did more o any other to bring the game to its-present high standing. Always thoroughly honest and con- scientious in his dealings with menagers and players, he established & previodsly unknown standard of uprightness among the ball men. His death will cause sorrow in the hearts of all who have ever enjoyed is acquaintance. His close and confident s, apart from the game, were few and to them be was a most lovable companion. He was a thoroughly domestic man and had bLeen three times married. His third wife, to whom he was but recently mar- ried, survives him, as do also seven chils | dren by the former marriages. “Uncle Harry,” as he was affectionately called, began his athletic career as a crick- eter. He was born in Sheffield, Eng., Jan- uary 10, 1835, but his parents brought him in 1836 to New York City, where he at- tended school until he was about 14 years olds - In 1857 he commenced to play baseball with the then famous Knickerbocker Clad of New York. In 1866 he went to Cincin- nati under engagement of thbe Union Cricket Club of that city. by In July, 1866, be helped to organize the | afterward famous Cincinnati Baseball ) This was one of the first regularly ined professional teams ever put on the diamond.

J. W. Grant, manager of Theo Winters’ Nevada stable, the horses of which sre now racing 2t the Bay Dis- trict track, received a telegram Yesterday stating that the horse died Wednesday evenine. Joe Hooker was a chestnut horse, stand- ing sixteen hands high, both hind legs white to hocks, blazeface and with a white atch on side. He was foaled in 1872 on ranch of A. Maillard. in Marin County, and was consequentiy 23 years old at the time of his death. The great racd sire, who was a son of Monday out of Mayflower by im: Eclipse, made his reputation in the stud and not on the racecourse.

The speaker was, however, strongly in favor of quail proteciion be- cause those birds were indigenous to this Btate and seldom left the ranch or farm upon which they were raised. Judge Buckles of the Superior Court of Solano County will decide on Monday next an injunction suit that has been nding against some members of the allard Gun Club since last season. The Cordelia Club, which has Jeased something like 4000 acres of marsh land, was defeated last year in several jury trials and as a final resort 8s a means of keeping trespassers off the wet grass an injunction suit was institated against hunters who persisted in trespassing apon the preserve, and the case which will be heard Monday will decide a matter of very particular interest to the sportsmen of Bolano County and the members of the so- called preserve clubs who desire unham- pered pleasure. The Mallard Club proposes to bring suit against the Teal Club becanse the latter bas blockaded some of the navigable sloughs, which act the Mallard Club con- tends is an open violation of the laws of the State. The outlook for trouble on the Suisun marshes this season between the “preserve” clubs and the contestants looks very promising. ZLast of the Yacht Drama, NEW YORK, N.Y.,Oct. 3.—The last act of the yacht-racing drama of 1895 had the curtain rung down on it yesterday when the Defender went into winter guarters and the two captains and the twenty-four members of the crew of the Valkyrie sailed on the Teutonic. The Defender was towed down to her winter anchorage at high tide at 8 o’clock in the morning. She now lies a little way in behind Glen Island in asheltered nook where no winter storms can disturb ber season’srest. Captain Haff and her crew will have a reception at Deer Isle, Me., on their arrival there, bttt Oklahoma’s Offer. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Oct. 3.—A special from Perry, O.T., says that Dick Plunkett, one of the best known sports in the West, telegraphed Dan Stuart this afternoon that Perry would giye $25.000 for the Corbett- Fitzsimmons mill. The law against prize- fighting in Oklaboma makes it a misde- meanor punishable by a fine not to exceed $500, or one year in the County Jail.

Hard Practical Work Being Done by the University Athletes, STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CaL., Oct. 3.—The cinder-track is a pretty busy part of the Stanford campus just now, as a number of athletes are preparing for the Amateur Athletic Association meet at Berkeley. The path was put in condition for work s few nights ago, and for two weeks a number of the best men in the university have practiced hard. The result is that the athletes in several instances show up very well. Hazzard, 9, is putting the shot in excellent style of late. Bernard '96, and Brunton, ‘9, do well in the sprints.

Their desire to select a referee four weeks before the fight shows that dirty work was intended. We know and can guarantee a place where the fight can take place, and the crowd and purse will be as large as in Dallas, and Corbett will have to fight. Fitzsimmons will train here four weeks, then go to Dallas and claim forfeit money.” e MEXICO IS WILLING, No Law in That Country to Prevent the Fight. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 3.—Minister Romero of Mexico, speaking without of- ficisl information on the subject, in- clined to the belief this afternoon that the proposed Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight might be brought off within the Mexican borders if all parties con- cerned so agreed. The place said to have been selected isin the State of Tamauli- pas, which touches the southern border of Texas, on the Rio Grande, and is con- venient to the railroads. There appears to be no existing law that will prevent the fight there, Speaking of this possibility, Mr. Romero said that as a general propo- sition the varions States of Mexico are independent and suprema over their own territory in regard to police regulations, the Federal Government exercising con- trol only st the seat of Government—the City of Mexico. Although he could not say so positively, Mr. Romero was in- clined to believe that the State of Tam- aulipas had no law against prizefighting. President Diaz has been quoted as being opposed to the fight taking place in Mexico, but this opposition, as Minister Romero understands it, was restricted to o womom P trotted in 2:26.

The Union League Club will hold its regular monthly dinner at its clubroors in the Palace Hotel next Saturday evening. o the City of Mexico itself. Although the President had no authority over the Siate of Tamaulipas, any suggestion from him to the Governor of that State, Mr. Romero thought, would have much weight. Asto the question as to whether the fight would take place on Mexican soil, Mr. Romero bad no opinion to express, Attorney-General Harmon says there is no probability that the Corbett-Fitzim- mons fight will occur in Indian Tern- tory. Government, for a moment, will not sanction it, and should the at- tempt be made, troops, if necessary, would be called out to preserye order. sl s CLEVELAND AFTER THE CUP. Won the Second Game in the Temple Series. CLEVELAND, Oxio, Oct. 3.—Cleveland won the second game of the Temple cup series in a walk to-day.
