THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1895. Interesting Sporting Events at Home and Abroad. MEMPHIS NOW THE MECCA Sporting Men Expect to Pull Off the Fight From That City. OFFICIALS ON THE LOOKOUT. Governor Clarke of Arkansas Says the Pugllists Cannot Battle in That State. | , Oct. 14.—Tt is now d by local sports that | to pull the Corbett-Fitz- | MEMPHIS practically the inteat t T simmons fight off from this city. Tele- graphic correspondence between them and of the affair has been going rate to-day, and one of the s end of the line admitted toa evening that the plan was as the ma The proposed arrangement is to have g the sports who come to see e up on the river front, pre- o moved 1n any directions that may be advisable—either to Mississippi, Arkan- sasor this State. The night before the fight, ith hundreds of laborers and the material all ready to be put in shape, the.amphi- theater can be rushed into form, and the one holding the greatest appearance of security from interruption will be adopted at the last moment.” The party quoted said the talk now about Hot Springs as the point at which | the fight is to take place is merely a blind. | In view of the indications given, senti- ment is rapidly crystallizing against the | fight taking place on Tennessee soil, and those working up the project will be | strongly warned on the subject in due time. LITTLE ROCK, Agk., Oct. 14.—No visi- ble change has taken place here since | Saturday on the question of the proposed Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight at Hot Springs. | When seen this afternoon Governor | Clarze authorized the statement that he bhas now full charge of the execution to the State law which makes prize-fighting a misdemeanor and that ounce of prevention is worth a pound " and therefore he, as Governor, | was going to administer the prevention be- | fore the cure was needed, or else resign his | ce and turn the State over to the thugs 1 their cohorts. “I am going to prevent this fight with peaceable means if possible, and in case this fails I shall resort to a force that will -ompel respect. The fight will not take Jlace at Hot Springs, nor at any other place in the State, either on October 31 next or at any other date, while I am Gov- ernor.” Although the dispatches state that Cor- bett and Fitzsmmons will be in Hot Springs within the next day or two, the Governor says he will cause their arrest immediately after they enter Arkansas territory. All parties at Hot Springs are still hopeful that the fight will take place, and preparations for the mill are being pushed rapidly. Public sentiment at Hot Springs is de- cidedly in favor of the fight, as it is in fact among sporting circles all over the State. | Corbett is expected to arrive at HotSprings to-morrow, and a telephone conversation with thesprings this afternoon says he will give a glove contest there Wednesday night. Governor Clarke says Corbett will do nothing of the kind, and future develop- ments will be watched with the deepest interest. HOT SPRINGS, Ark., Oct. 14.—The law will soon be appealed to decide whether a contest between boxers with soft gloves is | a violation of the Iaw. Mr. Vendigsays: We have not come to Arkansas and to the city of Hot Springs with any purpose to violate its laws. If Mr. Corbett and Mr. Fitzsimmons cannot come to_this city | an exhibition, as is provided for in es of agreement asthey now stand, imited number of rounds with soft oves, the authorized officers being em- red to stop the exhibition if it be- es brutal, then the exhibition will Iy not take place 1n Hot Springs. The authority at our service says there be no violation of the laws of the ate, but to make our case absolutely safe the citizens’ committee has engaged the ablest representatives of the legal profes- sion in Arkansas, and they are looking diligently into the matter at this time. We shall have a decision from them by to-morrow, and upon their advice we will act. The matter will be brought into the courts as soon as Wwe can get it there, and by the decision of the courts we shall abide. - The Florida Athletic Cinb desires that if possible the exhibition shall be given here, but if we cannot have it here we have an absolute guarantee of protection from three differ- ent places in Mexico, one of them just across the Rio Grande from El Paso. TUntil we know just where we stand legally in this matter here we shall do nothing. Thus temporarily the matter remains in statu quo. In the meantime excitement runs high. The small minority is making itself heard. The ministers called a meet- ing at Central Methodist Church thiseven- ing, and quite a crowd gathered, prompted by motives of curiosity largely. During the progress of the meeting after the preachers had had their say, and the Judge bhad spoken and several of the church members had inveighed, W. A. Brady, Corbett’s manager, arose and asked if a representative ot Mr. Corbett might be permitted to speak. There were a few murmurs of dissent, but calls to “Speak,” “Speak” began to fill the room, and Brady was permitted to talk. Mr. Brady’s talk captured the house, and when he finished such an acclamation of cheers and hand-clapping went up as was never before seen or heard in that sacred edifice, and which showed the drift of sen- timent. The church people were com- pletely nonplussed. Corbett will be here Wednesday and give an entertainment in the opera-house with his company. All the seats are sold. Hot Springs is alive with preparations. The Great Eastman and Park hotels will be opened the 20th. AUSTIN, Tex., Oct. 14.—The Supreme Court this morning handed down its opinion in the cases of the Tax Collector oFWiliiammn and Hays counties seeking to force the Comptroller to issue them a prize-fight license under the law passed at the regular session of the Legislature held last spring. The court declined to mandamus the Comptroller for a license on the ground that a special session of the Legislature recently convened nullified all previous laws on the subject by passing a new law making prize-fighting a felony, and no license can be secured. SAN ANTONIA, Tex., Oct. 14.—After a stay of nine days in San Antonio, Jim Cor- bett and party left to-night for Hot Springs, where he will resume his training, unless the position of the authorities there forces him to make another move. Corbett did not leave for his prospective field of battle in the best’of spirits. % He stated just before his departure that he believed the move is an unwise one, as he bas no confidence in the statements that the fight will be pulled off at Hot Springs and that protection is guaranteed. “In my opinion,” said be. “1 will find Arkansas no better place than Texas in which Lo fight and am still of the belief that my only chance for meeting Fitzsimmons no interference on the part of the authori- ties.” It is reported here this evening that Fitzsimmons will to-morrow change his training quarters from Corpus Christi to San Antonio. CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex., Oct. 14— ‘While working in the blacksmith shop to- day Fitzsimmons hurt his left hand. He said that his injury would not inter- fere with his fighting. He took a six-mile spin on his wheel this morning, and this afternoon he put in three hours’ solid work. e ROSE’'S CHALLENGE ACCEPTED, The Englishman’s Yacht to Race for the America’s Cup. NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 14.—The spe- cial meeting of the New York Yacht Club, called to take action on the challenge of Charles Day Rose for the America’s cup, was held at the Madison-avenue clubhouse this evening. The challenge was accepted and the cup committee of 1895 reappointed in charge of the arrangements. The formal reply to Percy Thefluson, cretary of the Roval Victoria Yacht Club, was cabled and international races are assured. The tollowing cablegrams were sent by Secretary Oddie of the New York Yacht Club after the meeting: Thelluson, Fflcrcmrg Royal Victoria Yacht Club, Ryde, Eng.—Challenge accepted. Com- mittee appointed with full power to arrange conditions. ODDIE, Secretary. Charles D. Rose, 39 Hill strect, Berkeley Square, London—Challenge accepted: have mnotified Thelluson. ODDIE. The cup committee remained in session until midnight and did not give the result of the deliberations. S s BALD WON THE HONORS. First National Cirouit Bicycle Meeting at Lincoln. LINCOLN, NEBR., Oct. 14.—The first Na- tional circuit bicycle meeting yet held in Lincoln, and probably the biggest wheel event in the State, occurred at Lincoln Park to-day, with a good attendance and under favorable auspices. The time made was not especially fast, but each event was closely contested. Among the star riders of the East, Eddie Bald of Buffalo carried off the honors, closely pressed by Murphy of Brooklyn. Local riders made good records, the class A men especially distin- guishing themselves. Half mile open, class B (unpaced), E. C. Bald, Buffalo, first; C. M. Murphy, Brook- n, second; ¢. 8. Wells, San Francisco, third. Time, 1:13. Half mile open, class A, 0. W. McBride, Lincoln, won; W. T. Banks, Lincoln, sec- ond; Ray McGreer, York, Nebr., third. Time, 1:08 3-5.

DES MOINES, Iowa, Oct. 14. — The Doane College football team from Crete, Nebr., defeated the Des Moines Y. M. C. A. team this afternoon—10 to 6. It is the first time an Iowa eleven has scored against the Nebraskans, who de- feated Iowa College and the State Univer- sity last week, not allowing them to score. PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Oct. 14—The TUniversity of Pennsylvania defeated Le- high at football to-day by a score of 54 to 0. Emial s Creedon Won the Fight. LONDON, ExG., Oct. 14.—The match between Dan Creedon, ex-middleweight champion of Australia, and Frank Craig, the Harlem “‘Coffee Cooler,” for a purse of $400, took place to-night at the National | Sporting Club. The men weighed in at 158 pounds. Creedon won the fight in twenty rounds. STRNFORD VS, BERKELEY, Eligibility to Freshman Teams the Subject of a Slight Disagreement. Palo Alto ‘’Varsity Players Not Showing the Form Requisite to Success. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CaL., Oct. 14.—Manager Eaton of the Stanford eleven has held an important conference with Manager Lang of Berkeley regarding the freshman game. It seems that there is a snag in the proceedings, and that while both managers desire to see a game be- tween the freshman elevens there is a dis- agreement regarding the rules governing eligibility of plavers to the freshman teams. A favorable outcome of the dis- cussion will doubtless be reached within a week, and the game be played on the day heretofore announced. Berkeley will have a much heavier freshman eleven than will Stanford. Un- less conditions change, and that speedily, Stanford’s freshman eleven is going to have a decidedly poor show for victory. The ’varsity candidates are practicing diligently each evening, but the progress of me{) ayers is far less perceptible than at the beginning of the season. Thereisa general feeling of confidence among them that Stanford will win the next intercol- legiate match from Berkeley, but unless the men do better work than’ they have done recently they wili have a hard fight to prevent defeat.” Several of the players express this opinion, so an improvement is likely to soon be noted. _While Stanford will have no punter to rival Ransome of Berkeley it has now three candidates for fullback who would do well in that position. Frazier '98, Weldon '97, and Harry Reynolds, ’96, are the men, and with proper training it will be hard to de- cide which is the better plaver, though their style of play is entirely different. In the game between '96 and 98 the lat- ter team protested against the placing ot Field in the line on McGuire’s alleged in- jury. The umpire was supposed to have decided the protest in favor of '98, but he has finally announced that he will not de- cide the protest at all. The Stanford training-table will start up to-morrow evening, so Captain Cochran has announced. Following are names of those players put on the table. Their number will be increased gradually until shortly before the big matcg, when ail but the best men will be removed: Spalding, Pauly, Cotton, R. Smith, Campbell, Rice, Fickert, Field, Garton, Carle, Thorsan, Bigelow, James, Code, J. Reynolds, H. Reynolds, Frankenheimer, Weldon, Over- acker, late, Mclntosh, Harrington, Lewers, Holbrook, Emmet, P. Smith, B. Thomas. .

An Organization Which Has Rapldly Won Its Way to the Front. BAKERSFIELD, CaL, Oct. 14. — Wherever any number of Englishmen gather together in any part of the world they are certain to find time to devote to athletic sports of various kinds. No mat- ter bow arduous may be their business du- ties, they manage to find spare hours in which to enjoy themselves in a sensible manner and at the same time afford en- joyment to others; and withal theirsports are usually conducted in an honest, straightforward manner, and with little or I Though defeated, by no means was he disgraced, as every inch of the five heats was he an active contestant, figuring in the fray as long as he re- mained in the race, torcing Fred Kohl to earn his best record of 2:12i4, and it was the fight of Fred Kohl and Oakland Baron that zave Boreal the race.

[Reproduced from a photograph.] none of the jockeyingand chicanery which have caused so many lines of sporting to fall into disrepute. The English colony at Bakersfield num- bers some enthusiastic sportsmen among its membership. Under the name of the Kerm® County Country Club they have an organization which is actively engaged in promoting the enjovment of its own mem- bers as well as that of the community as a whole. This club is now preparing for a race meeting which is to come off at Ba- kersfield on November 5 and 6, and for which a very attractive programme has been prepared. The Country Club was first organized under the name of the British Club. on Oc- tober 1,1893. It started with forty mem- bers, with H. G. Clifft as president and T. H. Dudley secretary. Almost from the start it took a prominent place inathletics. During the year after its organization four cricket matches were played by the club team, with results that at once brought the organization into prominence. One beat a picked team from the south by one inning and 80 runs. [wo matches were playeg with the Alameda Club, in the first of which the Bakersfield boys were de- feated, while the second resulted in a draw. Another match with the Penryn Club of Placer County was won by the Bakersfield team by 75 runs. arold Richardson of this, place, who distin- guished himself all through the season of 1894 while playing for the Alameda team, captained the home club. A Rugby football team was also organ- ized, which was captained by A. E. Cheals, without doubt one of the best Rugby foot- ball players in the country. One match was played in 1894—wiih the Nomads of San Francisco on April 7—and was won by the latter by eight points, after a very ex- citing and well-conducted game. An association football team was also organized and was captained by D. V. Craigie. Three matches were played dur- ing the season, the most important of which was with the Pacific Wanderers of San Francisco. This was won by the home club by three goals to one. Following are the officers of the club for 1895: President, J. Beresford Jobling; vice- resident, R. G. Morrison; secretary, T. . Dudley; treasurer, C. Bickerdike; cap- tain of cricket team, Captain. A. E. F. Rich, late of her Majesty’s service; cap- Club committee—W. J. Camidge, Dr. R. A. Ferguson, Donald Grant, E. Scharff and Fred Clifft. The annual election of officers will be held on the 24th inst. It is expected that Dr. R. A. Ferguson will be unanimously elected president and T. H. Dudley secre- tary for the third time. Thne gentlemen riders of the Country Club are: Messrs. F. W. D. Gwynne, M. G. Burmester, Gervais Wright, Lynn Roberts, R. Patterson Fox, T. H. Dudley, G. Bagot, Captain W. Hicks-Beach and Dr. John Snook. The race committee having in charge the programme for November 5 and 6 is as fol- lows: Reg A. Ferguson, chairman: M. G. Burmester, secretary ; Fred W. D. Gwynne, treasurer; T. H. Dudley, John Snook, W. J. Camidge and Gervais Wright. The programme for the races is an ex- tensive one and the prizes liberal. e MiDE A NEW WORLD’'S RECORD. Miss Rita and Josie B Paced a Mile Double in 2:12 1-4. LEXINGTON, Kv., Oct. 14.—When the two pacing fmares Miss Rita and Josie B went a mile this afternoon, double, in 2:12}4 they made a new world’s record. Another world’s record was broken in the 2:06 pace, as there developed a result of the ounly instance when five horses earned money out of a race where only four moneys were given, as Rachael, Vera Capel and Direction divided third and fourth moneys. Guinette won second quite handily by finishing three times second to Star Pointer. Geers drove the three winners in to-day’s events, and with Boreal in the Kentucky stake his masterly hand had much to do with the victory. On form Boreal was hardly regarded in the contest, but he de- veloped high rating in the stamina test. Oakiand Baron and Fred Kohl fought a battle to the half in two heats. Kohl won two heats and Killona one and Geers, who had been circling the track well behind, showed up next time and out- posted Oakland Baron home in 2:164. game was at_Los Angeles, where the club | tain of Rugby football team, R.

Centerville’s High-School Football Team Easily Defeated. STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Car., Oct. 14.—The Stanford freshman eleven won its first victory over an outside team to-day, defeating the Centerville school boys. The score at the game’s conclusion stood 28 to 0 and, as only one goal was kicked by the Stanford fullback, it will be seen that touchdowns were numerous. The Center- ville team played a very loose game, man- aging at intervals, however, to hold the college players down, but soon going to rieces again. Mass plays agamst Stan- ord’s center were generally fruitless, so Centerville was forced to depend on end runs by their backs. Here, too, its team was at a disadvantage, for the Stanford ends and tackles prevented any long gains. A noteworthy feature of the game was the clever playing of Stanley Harris, one of the Stanford backs. Four of the touch- downs were made by him alone, and he showed up the best of any man on the tield. He injured his ankle during the first half of the game, vet continued to play un- til the call of time. Plate, one of the Stan- ford halfs, and Overacker made five gains through the opposing rush line, and the tackling of the former was very good. Smith, at end, was very quick at gettin, down on punts, and tackled low and hard. The next game of the freshmen will be with the Santa Cruz Hich School eleven on October 26. It is not probable that a game will be played with the Oakland High School team. —_— BASEBALL AT SANTA CRUZ. The Electrics Beat the Petalumas Fifteen to Five. SANTA "CRUZ, Cin., Oct. 14— A game of ball was played yesterday at Vue de I’Eau Athletic Park between the Electrics of this city and the Petalumas. Eight innings were played, which re- sulted in a victory for the Electrics. The THE BAY DISTRICT RACES, Tim Murphy Rattled Off Five Furlongs in His Inimit- able Style. FOUR FAVORITES WON PURSES. Arnette Was Right on Edge and Downed Oakley In a Fast Run Mile. Encino was played for a mild “killing” in the opening race. She hungon longer than usual and some day may run up to some of her pri- vate trials. The well-known Eastern trainer, Jimmy McCormick, arrived from the East Saturday evening. He comes West under engagement to train the horses of the firm of Burns & ‘Waterhouse. Mr.McCormick was an on-looker at the races yesterday. Leonatus was quite extensively packed to get the place in the second race at odds of 12 and 15to1. Heran a surprisingly good race, and it certainly looked as though he got the place, but the judges placed him third. Johnny Coleman of the Stuyvesant Club started in laying 8 to 1 against Model, but when Denny Lynch of the Arizona stable and a few others thut get up betore breakfast and own a chronometer began becking her he soon rubbed. Hugh Jones, the popular bookie, couldn’t see Tim Murphy in the lastrace at all, and con- cluded to take a fall out of the roan horse. He is said to have lost over $1200 on the race, and the very healthy-looking line back of his stand after the race fully substantiated the fact. The odds about Toano in the last race were very short, and many labored under the im- pression there was going to be a watermelon party, but the company was undoubtedly too speedy for the old sprinter. Timothy Murphy—Tim for short—the roan sprinter, must have been imbibing of the elixir of life of late. He started 1n a five-furlong dash yesterday against three very ordinary articles in the racehorse line, yet as good as 7 to 5 was at one time laid against him. There were many race- goers that didn’t like his chance, and that made the odds. After a little those who did like him put their coin in, and Tim went to the posteven money. He galloped the five furlongs in 1:00}4 with such ease there is no telling how much faster he could have gone. Major Cook, who was heavily backed to beat him, finished second, and Venus finished ahead of old Toono for third money. The winner has been racing for years, and it wonld not be surprising if he would some day win a Brooklyn handi- ca’E or a Suburban. he day was far from a pleasant one for racing purposes, and the attendance was light, likewise the betting. The favorites all managed to step past the finishing post in front, with one exception, and that was ‘Warrago, the first choice for the third race on the card, who failed to get inside the money. The 6 to 5 favorite, Claude Hill, took the | opening race, at four and a half furlongs, | for members of the two-year-old division, very handily. Easel, the second choice, headed the favorite into the stretch, where the latter drew away and won by four lengths. Encino, a 25 to 1 chance, headed Easel out for second place. The next event, a slx-lnrlong dash, went to the 6 to 5 favorite, Elmer F, with little to spare at the end. Miss Fletcher, at 4 to 1in the betting, ridden by Shaw, led until within a few yards of the wire, when the favorite came along and beat her out a neck in a drive. Leonatus,a long shot, was third. “Billy”” Donathan’s mare, Warrago, ran a very disappointing race in the seven- furlong run. Going to the post an 8to5 choice, she was never able to get to the front. Lady Jane, with 8 to 1 about her in the betting, led the other seven starters until well into the stretch, where Model, who had run into second position, passed her, and won_handily by two lengths in 1:27}. Mary 8, an outsider, came through 'fi the end, being beaten but a head for the ace. L The Garden City stable’s honest little mare Arnette opened an even money choice for the mile dash, with Oakley second choice at 8 to 5. The odds against the mare went back to 8 to 5, but a strong play cut the price to 6 to 5 arcund post time and Oakley went back in the betting to twos. Remus and Detective headed the favorite, Jones,who had the mount on her, getting cut off a couple of times while try- ing to pass them, but when straightened away in the stretch she assumed command and won by a length from Oakley, who came fast the last furlong. Remus was third, five lengths further away. The dis- tance was covered in 1:403{. (SUMMARY. Twentieth day, Monday, October 14. Weather cold; track fast. Q7.

Mrs. Graydon Supposed to Have Been Killed at the Gumry Hotel. DENVER, Coro., Oct. 14.—More missing victims of the Gumry Hotel horror may be added to the list of dead. A Sixteenth- street jeweler has a lady’s watch, left for repairs on the day preceding the explo- sion, and the address given was ‘“Mrs. A. Graydon, Gumry Hotel.” The watch has remained uncalled for. The hotel regis- ter gives the name of Alexander Graydon, Indianapolis, under date of August 12, six days before the fire. When the lady left the watch she stated that she was to leave the city in a few days. Inquiries have been sent to Indianapolis to clearfup this matter. There has always remained a doubt if all the victims of that disaster had been correctly accounted for. — - TWO HUNDRED SWITCHMEN. They Have Met at Omaha for the Annual Convention.
