GLOVE CONTESTS ARE BARRED. THE SHERIFF OF GARLAND COUNTY ORDERED AGAIN AR- ETT. LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Oct. 23.—The 1. That was the de- cision handed down the Suvreme Court here at 11 o’clock this morning. Chancel- lor Leatherman of Hot Springs was over- ruled and the Sheriff of Garland County was ordered to rearrest Champion James J. Corbett. The courtroom was crowded with spectators when Chief Justice Bunn rendere decision orally in substance as follo: prize-fight law is val t holds that the law of 1891 is parts and the Chancellor is i. The Chancellor had no right to examine the matter and was in error in 1g jurisdiction. The conclusion of the rtis that the proceeding on the writ of habeas corpus should be quashed and is quashed, as the proceedings are errone- ous. “The order of this court is that the Sheriff of Garland County proceed to exe- cute the writ issued by the Justice of the cou Peace in the first instance as if the Chan- | cellor had never had anything to do with this case.” Immediately after the decision had been rendered Governor Clarke hastened to seneral Kingsworthy, and he eard to say that the court had not decided the differences between a prize-fight and a glove contest—thai was the decision wanted. Kingsworthy imme- diately went to Chief Justice Bunn and ed him to rule on this guestion, but the Judge did not grant the request, say 1ng that was not the question in the case. *A few minutes after the decision been rendered a United Press representa- tive visited the Governor and asked his opinion on the Governor Clarke had very little to say. He reiterated his former statements that there would be no prize-fight at Hot Springs. He also said he had discovered what the prize-fight law of Arkansas meant. Turning to Cily Attorney Martin of Hot Springs, who was present, the Gov- ernor said: “‘Well, Mr. Martin, what are you going to ao?” Martin told the Governor the people of Hot Springs had no desire to violate the rkansas. is people when he returned home as that there would be no prize-fight at Hot | Springs. — - BALKED BY JULIAN. All Efforts to Bring off the Mill Seem to Be Unavailing. HOT SPRINGS, Agk., Oct. 23.—Another strenuous effort to bring Corbett and Fitz simmons together was made to-night by the citizens’ commitiee, which met at the Arlington at 9 o'clock with Mayor Waters presiding. Brady and Julian were invited to meet the committee, and after both had responded a legal member of the committee gave an opinion that the Supreme Court decision cleared the way for the men to meet sub- ject to conviction and fine for misde- meanor. It was suggested that new arti- cles should be drawn up, and President Babcock annoanced that a gentleman now in the City was prepared to see t the purse of $10,000 was forth- coming or to put up $5000 toward ight in private with six men present 1 each side. No names were mentioned, was understood that the person re- to was Valentine Hoffman, the gton. A proposition to make the purse $41,000 was aleo discussed by the Hot Springs people would raise this stake. Brady insisted that, as a condition prece- dent to his consideration of any new ion or the signing of new articles, & definite understanding must be had con- cerning a referee and the putting up of the purse. When he and Julian named their choice for referee, Brady submitted Phil Dwyer, Macon McCormick, Herman Oel- richs of New York, Johnny Clark of Phila- delphia; Tim Hurst, the National League umpire; honest John Kelly and Arthur Moore of the New York Athletic Club. Julian in turn submitted John L. Sulli- van, Jake Kilrain, Mike Donovan, Yank Sullivan, Louis Houseman and Professor Duffy. Brady objected to all of these, giving his reasons, wth the gwseption of Kilrain, whose name he hefl under advisemen. Julian did the saile with John Clark. Brady then offered to admit six more names and to keep on doing so until Julian found some one that would suit him,but again Julian objected. Concerning Sullivan, Brady said that he had no ob- jection to him, but that he had stated in type that he would not serve. sisted that Fitzsimmons’ $10,000 must be up on the day the purse is in sight. Before the committee ad- journed at 10:50 Manager Price of Whit- tington Park said in reply to a question that he could get the amphitheater in shape for 40,000 spectators in three days and nights. In the Western Union office to-night Brady offered Julian to toss a. penny whether Kilrain or Johnny Clark be the referee. Both men had been held in re- serve out of the list named. Julian replied that he had come to the conclusion that Clark, having only one eye, would be in- capacitated from acting. To-night Corbett gave out the following: “‘Unless Robert Fitzsimmons or his rep- resentative agrees to a referee by 12 o’clock to-morrow (Thursdav) and deposits $10,- 000 l:iy 12 o'clock Friday and making his deposit good and rendering this fight an absolute certainty, I declare the match off. I will not train another moment. I have named for his consideration [here follows the list al- ready given with the addition of Billy Ed- wards, Jere Dunn and Jimmy Colville], and an offer has been made to toss ‘a penny whether Jake Kilrain, named by him, or John H. Clark, named by me, shall be the men selected. This is posi- tively my ultimatum. “Janmes J. CorpETT."” —_——— JAW-WORK NOT AFFECTED. Fitzsimmons Now Wants to Fight for Money or Marbles. HOT SPRINGS, Ark., Oct. 23.—The de- cision of the SBupreme Court at Little Rock to-day in the matter of the appeal from the decision of Chancellor Leatherman, who held in effect that the proposed prize- fights would not be a contravention of the law, address another and perhaps a final complication to the series of remarkable episodes that have attended the move- step, if any, of the prosecuting authorities of this district will probably be decided to- morrow. According to the decision, Cor-- bett has been ordered back into the custody of the Sheriff. This, however, is regarded as apoeryphal, as the champion was abso- lutelv released from the custody of that official after Chancellor Leatherman’s de- cision and was not required to even find bonds for his appearance should the appeal of the State to the Supreme Court be ad- verse to his position. President Dan Stuart of the Florida Athletic Club had left for Dallas before the bulletin of the decision reached here, but Joe Vendig, who was delayed at Malvern by 2 wreck, returned to Hot Springs this afternoon. When made acquainted with the action of the court he said that in his the club, it could mnke no further effort to bring off the fight. 4 “We don't propose,” he said, “‘to fly in the face of the law. All our outstanding bills will be settled up at once. The money we have expended has been forthcoming as we needed it, so that the balance to be called for will be small. The club will be out about$24,000. PresidentStuartintended to return on Sunday, but whether he will do so after being acquainted with the situa- tion is & question. He has nothing to re- turn for, as our club has said good-by to Hot Springs and its people.” On the other band, Julian regarded the had | preme Court’s decision. | The Governor told him | brewer, who is stopping at the | ttee, butit was not believed that the | Healso | side bet of | | situation with equanimity. To & United | Press representative to-night he said: | “Let it be understood first that I am | not talking at long range or indulging in | a bluff. I have the guarantee of the city | of Hot Springs, signed by Mayor Waters, | that if Fitzsimmons is brought here he sha!l not be molested. If he is ali | nothing on earth shall prevent my | him in this city on Thursday nex | vided that Corbett has not sneaked away |in the meantime, I shall send him word | that Fitzsimmons is at the hotel and de- sires him to come down and arrange for a meeting in_private, provided, of course, that the Florida club cannot bring the thing off. CORPUS CHRISTI, Tex., Oct. Fitzsimmons is putting in as hard wo! as he did the first week of hi ing. he big talk,” said Fitzsimmons to The United Press reporter, ‘made by Dan Stuart, Brady and others in the press di patches yesterday is the outcome of malice and degraded hearts,” He desires to fight Corbett for a side rse of $10,000, and said : “If Corbett thinks I am crawling let him accept the challenge. el A JORKE FROM TEXAS. Brilliant o now s traini pu Scheme Emanating From a Correspondent’s Brain. PARIS, Tex., Oct. 23.—A match game of football has been arranged between the champion teams of the Texas State Uni- versity and the Arkansas State University for the championship of the two States. It will be played in the Paris Park, the deal having been closed to-day, when the | purse money was fimshed being raised. | from both States, and it has been sug- | gested that advantage be taken of this obportunity to bring off the Corbett-Fitz- | simmons mill. | Ttis proposed that they take -art in the game, but upon opposite sides, and of course during the progress of the game | they will naturally come in contact, when it is proposed that the fight shall begin. | That will also decide the championship in | heavy-weight pugilistic circles. It 'is claimed that such a procedure | would not conflict with the prize-tight law | }uqt enacted by the special session of the | Legislature. This opinion is given by several eminent attorne; The matter is ing investigated thoroughly and if it is ascertained that the mill can be pulled off without legal interference Paris will take | steps to secure the battle. g netl B ON EASTERN TRACKS. rs of Racing Events at the Principal East of the Rocky Mountains.

NEW YORK, N. Y., Oct. 23.—A novel international contest in the shape of a re- volver shooting match by cable between the cracks of England and America is be- ing projected, and the idea is attracting much favorable atteniion. Invitations nave been sent to the leading amateurs, and the responses have been most encour- aging. A meeting will be held Friday night at the New Manhattan Athletic Club, when definite action will be takeun. The plan is to organize a revolver shoot- ing club and in a series of matches this winter to select the most expert for a rep- resentative American team, which will challenge the English experts, using the cable to record the results. It is proposed to have four to ten men in each team, with ments of the would-be fighters for the past 8ix months, Just what would be the next the distance between thirty-six and forty- eight feet. judgment, as one of the representatives of | This game will bring thousands of people | The track was fast, | A VICTORY BY STANFGRD, | THE COLLEGIANS SCORED EIGHT, WHILE THE VISITORS MADE A CIPHER, RELIANCE PLAYED FAST BALL. | CAPTAIN COCHRAN'S GREAT TACKLE | | AND OTHER FEATURES DOWNED | THE OAKLANDERS. | | STANFORD UNIVERSITY, CarL., Oct. 23.—Stanford has won her second vi this season over an outside team, The | Reliance eleven was downed in a more de- | cisive manner than was the Olympic team. | The score at the end of the game stood 8—0 | in favor of the collegians. | Fully 800 students turned out to see the | match to-day and cheered their players at | | all times of the play. Coeds were out in | | greater force than on any previous occa- | | sion. The gridiron was in fine condition | and, as was expected, a first-class game re- sulted. At bucking the line, which was Re- | liance’s strongest play, the Oaklanders made good games on nearly every attempt. | The visitors showed a fair degree of in- terference, and in team work they were | not at all inferior to the college boys. | Their play was much faster than Stanford | at first, but slowed down some after the first ten minutes of the game. | | For the Reliances McMilian’s bucking | was & special feature, In fact, the Reliance captain was by far the most formidable man on the visitors’ eleven. He tackled low and hard, bucked like a piledriver, and seemed to get into every play. With Harrington McMillan had no great trouble, | but when Williams was placed opposite | him he had all he could do. Sherrard and | Racine played good ends, but were none too good for Cotton and Spalding, who | were down on every kick and made several very pretty tackles. Huff and Hanlon did the best work for Reliance back of the line. For Stanford Captain Cochran played a | great tackle—the best he has done this | year. He was opposed to a man who used | very questionable tactics, and who should have been ruled off a half dozen times for | fouls. Fickert at guard literally toyed | | with McHugh. He broke through repeat- | | edly, and did some excellent tackling be- | hind the line. For a new man at tackle Carle put up a strong game. Back of the | line the Reynolds boys and Frankenbeimer did some long ground gaining. Harry Reynolds’ long run in the first half was & star play of the game. Weldon punted in | good form at nearly every try. The line-up at the beginning of the game is here given. During the progress of the | match Reliance changed six players and stanford made two alterations, putting in Williams at right guard and Weldon at fullback. Weldon i Stanford took the ball for the kick-off and sent it twenty vards. Harlow brought the sphere back half the distance, when | Carle stopped him. A scrimmage and no | gain was the r-sult of two attempts, and | Huff kicked for twenty-five yards. Cotton received a punt and planged through Re- | liance men for five yards. H. Reynolds again punted for twenty-three yards, and | Huff, who captured the high fly, was taken | off his feet by Spalding. | Rel iance entrusted the pigskin to Har. low, but no gain acerued. Two wedg spent their fury against Stanford’s line | with but slight effect and Huff punted. H. Reynolds caught the ball on the run | and made his star run of thirty-five yards without interference. The ball wentto the Reliance,however, on Frankenheimer’'s J offside play. McHugh made no gain and Stanford got | the ball. | Frankenheimer shot around the Reli- | ance’s left and for ten yards. J.

C,, Oct. has been a sudden spurt of acti navy-yard. Last night between seventy- five and a hundred men were put on night work to finish up the armament of the battleship Oregon, now lying at Mare Isl- and Navy-yard, San Francisco. This is the first time in many years that a night shift has been worked at the navy-yard, and it is regarded as most remarkable, since the force has been continually re- duced in the past year. Officials at the Navy Department are reticent about the night work. —_— Prostrated in Court, WASHINGTON, D.

DORSEY A SHIFTY MAIDEN. | BLUE BELL, ONCE 20 TO 1 IN THE BETTING, FIRST IN A HANDICAP. Artemus was away from the post absolutely last in the opening race, but made a good showing. He should be able to win in ordin- ary company. Monita was backed down from 8 to 3 to 1 and off the boards to pull off the last race. He showed prominently for half the journey and then gave it up. Frank Jackson, the Roby jockey who has been in seclusion at the ocean beach, came in | yesterday and rode & good race on Crawford 215 to 1 shot, finishing second. Minrichs, on the even-money favorite Ran- som, managed to get cut off rounding the far turn. He came fast at the finish, but his back- ers cashed no tickets. The judges questioned | Hinrichs, and his explanation proved satis- factory. Frank Taylor, the well-known trainer, re- ceived a telegram from his partner, Sam Hil- dreth, who has been training E.J. Baldwin’s Santa Anita string. saying he had resigned his | position and would leave for California Satur- day, the 26th inst. ' A well-known California sporting men at present located in Chicago, writing to a friend | in this City, states that the new race tracks that have sprung up with a mushroom-like growth in the vicinity of the Windy City are mere “‘blinds” for the running of the foreign book. From 3000 to 5000 people are inat- tendance every day, but he says the racing is a farce. Jobbery is rampant, everything is overlooked by the officials in the stand, and |any one from a tramp to & cook cangets mount if he can sit a horse. a horserace, and came very nearly develop- |ing a survrise. There were six starters | and J. Weber's Little Cripple ruled an 8 to 5 favorite. - One peculiar phase of the bet- ting was the ehifting of the odds against Claudius. He opened at the same price as ‘Weber’s gelding, but went back until 6 to 1 was obtainable. place honors in the ring, while another wise set hustled their coin in on the light- weighted Mamie Scott, who was backed | from 5 to 324, and this scrawny iooking daughter of Canny Scott, who a week back was running in *‘October derbies,” | came near landing the purse. | When the flag fell Ed Jones, who had the mount on Mamie Scott, took the mare | | out in front, opening up a gap of three or fourlengths. The pace set was a red hot | one, and Gussie, who had been running in second place, had enough when the stretch was reached. At this point Claudins was in fifth place and Sloan urging the big horse hard. A furlong from sue was seen to lie between Claudius, | Little Cripple and the light-weighted | mare who was still leading. Until the last | twenty yards victory looked to be with the | latter, but under Sloan’s persuasive riding | Claudius came thundering on with that | phenomenal burst of speed and snatched | the race on the wire by a bead. Honest plodding but unfortunate Little Cripple was a bang-up third, a neck away. The winner equaled Del Norte's track record of 1:47 for the distance. The racing throughout the day was good and the attendance was the best of the week. It was a day for outsiders in the | betting, for Dorsey was the only success- | ful first choice. | One of the shiftiest maidens uncorked in | some time bobbed up in the opening race, | a five-furlong dash. Dorsey, backed 4 to 2, was the horse in question, and he the field pitted against him look like cattle and won galloping from Irma in 1:0114. After opening in the betting at threes, being piayed down to 8 to 5and then re- ceding to 434 to 1 again, Gold Bug led all the way in the second race ateleven-si teenths with light welter-weizhts up, win- ning by three lengths from Crawford, who finished a nose in front of the 11 to 5 favorite, Rey Alta. Mainstay was backed at even money and 4 to 5to win the five and a half furlong handicap, but Blue Bell, at one time as good as 20 to 1, with post odds of 12 to 1 against her chances, got the best of a miserable start, and, leading the entire distance, beat Clacquer, a 10 to 1 outsider, a length in 1:07. Roadrunner was a close third and the favorite fourth. Tne Eastern horse, Ransom, was an even-money chance for the last race, a mile dash, but failed to zet a piece of the money. The Duchess of Milpitas, second choice in the ring, led all the way and won by a length from Olivia in 1:41}4. SUMMARY.
