rEPFCIAL TELEGrAM TO THE DISPATCH. 1
2s Eiy Okleass, Jan. 10-j Next "Wednes
day the Dempsey-Fitzsimmons figbt comes
off here before the Olympic Club, and
already the city is beginning to look very
ranch as it did in the days just preceding
the Sullivan-Kilrain match. A large num
ber of sporting men have already arrived
and looked over the field. Tue battle
trill be seen under the most favorable
circumstances. The match is held under
a city ordinance which allojvs glove
ght, so that there is no chance of
pc'ice interference. A detail ol 75 police
will be present to preserve order. The fight
is fixed for 9 P. M. There i of course, not
the slightest chance of now calculating its
length, but Fitzsimmons' friends are betting
that it will be a short fight and offering to
wager money that it does not last over ten
lonnds.
The merits of the two men are still under
discussion with no conclusions reached.
Fitzsimmons is much the taller, and with
the longer reach; but his hips are narrow and
his legs ihin, and there are many ulio think
tbej cannot carry him through a long fight;
moreover, his wind is an unknown quantity, for
he has never had a long fight and has gen
erally knocked out his man In three or
four rounds. He has been training largely
for wind, walking and running a great deal
and has been at it two weeks longer than
Dempsey, and without interruption, whereas
the latter stopped his training to rnn no to
Dallas and has been present at a number of ex
bioitions. lhe match Hill cost the club in all
about $20,000. of which J12.ClJUgo for the prizes.
The building will hold 543.1)00, so that the club
vill make a handsome thing out of it if St can
sell all the tickets as it hopes to do.
Am profit it may make will be saved for
other purses for list fights, purses so large as
to attract the best talent in this country or
England. George .Lablancbc, w ho gave Uemp
sej his only defeat, is on bis h ay to New Or
leans, and sap. he will challenge the winner of
the Demp&ej -Fitzsiminnns fight. It is an opeu
stcrel that the Olympics long ago intended to
n itch the winnimf iheDetupscy-Fitzsitnmons
fight against led Fritchard, the English cham
pion. There are at least a half dozen
lLCn here Hbo would like to chal
leLge the winner of next Wednesday's
fight. Among the matches proposed and tor
which it is said tl e Olympics or other clubs
here are willing to put up good purses, are be
iweenJim Corbett and Charlie .Mitchell; be
tween Jimmy Larroll, the lightweight, and
Jack McAuliffe; between Bowen and Mc
Auliffe and bctneeh Fi zsimmons and Ted
i'ritLhard.
ArnoDg the arrivals to witness the fight are
Boblarrell, Larned Tracey, bteve Brodie and
Abe Levy, ot New York, and Jimmie Carroll,
of Brooklyn. A telegram has been received
from Ed Kearnev advising that he would ar

THE COMING H0KSE SALES.
An Opinion That High Prices Trill Continue
for W ell Bred Trotters.
rFrlCIAt. TELEGBAM TO THE DISPATCH.:
Lexctox, Jan. 10. The coming sales of
trotters in eu York and Lexington are being
discussed at great length by some of the able
tnrf writers. One gentleman located in New
York Citj, and writing for a syndicate of
Western dailies, gives It as his opinion that the
prices of trotters nai e been too high, and the
approaching sales will show a marked falling
off in prices. I have been at some trouble to
Interview a number of the leading dealers and
breeders here on the subject. The opinion
seems to prevail amung well-informed horse
men that good individuals well-bred will sell
lor more money than similar stock ever told
for before, while the medium bred and poorly
bred ones will probably go for less. One intel
ligent breeder puts it this waj :
Jhe tendency is toward the best. The busi
ness, in my opinion, has just emerged from its
experimental state, although the breeding ot
trotters will alwajs be more or less In the
nature of experiment. It is becoming more gen-
V eralb known that to produce a trotter it is nee
fary to breed in trotting lines; that is, if one
wishes to lake the least possible mk. The hap
hazard breeding of 23 years ago would not be
countenanced by the veriest tjro now, for the
aimof every wide-awake man in the business
is to breed the best. It is this fact that keeps
op the prices of richly bred trotters, and I am
surprised to see so many of j ou turf writers
predicting that the bottom will soon fall out of
the trotting horse market. I tell you this
is a mistake. When a colt like btern
berg in the 2-j car-old form can win $3,000 in
stakes and purses and then sell for !15,C00:
when a Wilion can ell for 60,000 and earntoO.
009 the first tuo Tears in tbe Ktud. .tnd one of
bh 2-year-old daughters bring 510. WW: wLen an
Egbert sells for H5 000. earns S15.U00 a year in
the stud, and SoO 000 is refnsed fur one of his
sons: when a Red Wilkes brings $G0,OD0. earns
3S.G00 a j ear as a stallion, and fires a gelding
that sells for $23,000; when a fairly well bred
mare that would sell for 1,000 is farmed for S3C0
a year, j ou can tell our reader, that the bottom
hasn't quite lallen out of the trotting horse
business. No, young man, toe business is here
to stay."
THE FATHER CONSENTS.
Corbett Can Now Arrange to Tight
J. J.
Peter Jackson for a Purse.
SAX FtiAJ Cisco, Jan. 10. Patrick J. Corbett,
father of ban Francisco's star heavyw eight, Jim
Corbett, has relented, and will now place no
obstacle in the way of a meeting between Peter
Jacksou acd his son. The letter is as follows:
ho much adverse comment has been raised
through the positiOT I took regarding my son,
James Corbett, meeting Peter Jackson in a box
ing match before the California Club, and so
many unkind things have been said and insinu
ated, that I am constrained to forego raj princi
ples for the sake of my son's reputation, as
thoroughly adverse as I am to his adopting
pugilism as a means of livelihood. I therefore
beg leave through your columns to rescind my
lormer declaration tbtt be should not meet
Jackson and to add my consent for the con
summation of the match at such time as tbe
parties coi cerned see fit to ax it. I think that
among these who know me and my boy best, it
is scarcely necessary to say how unjust are the
rumors concerning anv collusion between us
tor the purpose of making a bluff at such a
match to aud interest to the combination with
which he is traveling.
AFTEE HTM 'WITH A GTJN.
The Sporting Writer Whom Sullivan Struck
Terrorizes the Pugilistic Actor.
Milwaukee, Jan. 10. Actor Sullivan's
drunken reign of terror ends tbe moment some
body tells htm that a victim is after him with a
"gun." John don't like this article.
Last night be was badly scared. He heard
that William Dillon, the sporting reporter,
whom he had slugged Thursday, was after him
with a revolver. The management tried to
keep Dillon out of the theater, but he attended
the show and guyed the pugilist-actor from a
high-priced seat.
During the performance Sullivan made a
characteristic "speech," In which he stated
that be only pushed Dillon with the back of bis
band. Ho also said the woman who was stop
ping with him was his wife, and he had regis
tered her as such at the lioteL
Reporter Dillon asked John for his opinion
ot the Dempsey-Fitzsimmons contest and re
ceived a drive in the jaw. John also whipped
a little bell boy at the Plankinton House,
where he is stopping with the blonde he regis
ters as his wife.
Want a Change at Louisville.
Louisville, Jan. 10. It was learned to-day
that a secret meeting of tbe principal stock
holders of the Louisville club was held in
President Parson's office yesterday,, and It is
eiid to have been an exceedingly lively one.
The only information that cojld' be" obtained
was that it was a meeting to devise some plans
for next season. Some of tbe stockholders are
dissatisfied with President Parson's manage
ment, and are determined to make a change.
A letter rereived from Manacer Chapman
states that he has not signed Ely. Manager
Chapman says the team will not be taken
bouth unless be can secure enough of tbe old
players to go by March 5. Ihe Cyclones will
open the exhibition season here with St, Paul
on Much 29, SO, SL aud April 2. 3 and 4.
THEY ABE HOME AGAIN.
McAullfle aud Madden Return Expert
Opinion on Dempsey's Chances. .
New- York, Jan. 10. Joe McAuliffe and
Billy Madden arrived home to-day on the Brit
annic Notwithstanding tbe thumping Slavin
gave him, McAuliffc still thinks he can do any
man who walks on two legs, and he wants all
the big fighters to know it. too.
He was candid enough to acknowledge that
Slavin whipped him fairly, but is or the opin
ion that a second trial would result differently.
"In London there is much interest In the big
middle-weight battle," said Madden. Fitz
simmons seems to have the call in tbe betting,
but Dempsey is well supported. Charley
Mitchell has bet a whole lot of money on Jack,
and be thinks as I do, that Fitzsimmons will be
defeated."
"Will j ou look after McAuliffe in case he is
ma'ched with Carroll again? '
"I don't know yet what arrangements Jack
will make. Let me predict right nuw. though,
that Carroll will not last 23 rouuds if they
fight."
IJave Holland invited McAuliffe and Mad
den to accompany him to New Orleans as his
guests, but they concluded that the journey
just finished was enough for them for awhile.
B. H. W. writes as follows regarding the
Dempsey-Fitzsimmons fight: "Dempsev trains
to 154 pounds strong his tightinc weicht. It
Fitzsimmons enters the ring at 151 poundshe
will have baa to train down from 170 pounds.
Will bo be as strong and fit as Dempsey at that
welghtT Ihe five-ounce gloves are in his favor.
Dempsey would like skin tight or two-ounce
gloves. Fitz has height and reach also in his
tavor. Can Deinpse equalize gloves, length
and reach, both being strong and fit?"
HANL0N IS MANAGES.
His Terms Accepted by the Local Magnates
and All Is Harmony.
Another meeting of the local baseball mag
nates was held at ihe Hotel Anderson vestei
day afternoon. All the directors except Mr.
Ni'mick were present. Manager Hanlonwas
also on hand.
The most important business transacted was
tbe election of Ei Hanlon to manage the team
during next season. His terms were accepted
without a murmur. Tbe President of the club
was instructed to represent the club at the Na-(
Lionai .Lieague niueiius on r cuuc.uji wo As
sets of the P. L. and N. L. clubs wore voted
into the new clnb. and everything was reported
as being gloriously satisfactory. A meeting of
the Pittsburg Athletic Association will be held
on Tuesday, as that organization, which owned
the N. L. club, will not dissolve until all its
debts are paid.
During j esterdav afternoon Manager Hanlon
stated that everything looks satisfactory in the
East except the little trouble at Brooklyn.
There are still strong hopes of signing Ward.
Manager Hanlon 'will now start and hustle for
good men, and he hopes to get a few.
ABE SMITH WON.
The Homestead Man Defeats Ed Niklrk In
Their 150-Yard Race.
Between 200 and 300 local sporting men were
at Exposition Park yesterday afternoon to wit
ness the 150 yard foot race betweenJAbe Smith,
of Homestead, and Ed Ntkirk, or this city.
The race was for 150 a side, Tbe track was in
a wretched condition, being almost all covered
with ice. The betting was lively at even
money.
When the pistol went oil Smith got well
awav, and Nikirk slipped on to his knees,
and before he could recover Smith was a little
more than three yards ahead. Nikirk settled
down and decreased the lead, but he could not
catch bmitb, who won bv aoouta yard and
a hair. No time was taken. George Smith
was referee.
Abe binlth called at this office .last evening,
and stated that be will not run any more races,
and that challenges to him will be useless.

Rapids. Rockford, Freeport, Peoria, Dubuque,
Juliet and other cities, all of which have prom
ised to send delegates to the meeting.

tbe Inter-State League will bo reorcanized on a
far more substantial footing than heretofore.
CHALLENGE TO GHAUT.
A Very Definite Offer to the Pugilist of
Beaver Falls.
A local sporting man called at this office last
evening and lelt the following interesting chal
lenge: "An unknown of Pittsburg can be matched
to fight Elmer Grant, of Beaver Falls, to a fin
ish with two-ounce or skin gloves, Quensberry
rules to govern, for not less tban JoOO a side.
Business only is meant by this challenge, as
Grant has already declared his willingness to

Grant will name a date of meeting a represen
tative of the unknown will meet him at The
Dispatch office to sign articles. The un
known will fight at catch weight."

Associatiou franchise to Allen W. Thurman,
Chairman of the Association Conference Com
mittee. The latter arrived in this city late last
evening and registered at the Lafayette Hotel.
There Mr. Wagner and Frank Elliott, also a
stockholder in the Philadelphia Players' club,
found htm. When seen by a reporter Mr. 1 bur
man said: "I am here to listen, not to talk. I
shall hear all that Mr. Wagner has to say this
evening and to-morrow. I will give George
Morrison Taylor, who represents the minority
stockholders of tho Athletic club, a hearing.
Four applications for the 1'bilidelpbia Associa
tion franchise have been received. Iwant to
hear all of their claims and then I shall give
tbe f ranehbe to tbe one who, in my judgment,
will be the best man for the American Asso
ciation." Shooting at Glenwood.

Big Offer, if True.
New York, Jan. 10. It is stated on excel
lent authority that the Boston triumvirs
Soden, Conant and Billings, have offered Mr.
Prince, through their lawyers, $10,000 in cold
cash to give up bis club and grounds In Boston,
and tbat Mr. Prince is sew considering tbls
offer rather favorably. It seems that Prince
has been gradually buying up the tock in the
Boston Players' League club until now he holds
tbe controlling Interest. If he accepts the
Boston League club's offer it will effectually
block tbe Association's chances for getting a
franchise in Boston.

Cleveland Brotherhood leader and President of

TWO STARTLING CASES-
Mrs. Mangold, of Butler, and
Mr. Mahan, ofSh'arpsburg,"
Escape an Inevitable
Doom.
THEIR TESTIMONY.
IJrobibl y one of tbe most thrlTing towns of
its size in Pennsylvania is Batter, tbe count?
sent of Batter county, a pleasant place of about
7,500 inhabitant.'.
Mr. Mangold, an indnstrtous and well to-do
mercaant, is well Known anil respected by all
Batlerites. His wire. Mrs. Anna Mangold, is
charniinc ladr, and bas many friends. KecenU
ly tbe writer bad tbe pleasure of an interneW
witb Mrs. Mangold, dannz whicb sbe recited
brief history of a portion of ber life, interest?
in to a decree, and tbe conclusion of whictt
seemed truly wonderful.
"Some time aj;o," cays Mrs. Mangold, "I con.
traded a cold: nothing alarmintr about tbat,
bat ere I recorered from Its effects I cauzbe
another and tben another, until I bad a cold all
the time. My bead and nose would be stopped
up so I could hardly breathe. There was a con
stant rumbling and buzzing in mr ears, whicb
later on affected my hearing. Soon a severs
cougb set In. I would raise great quantities of
offensive matter.
Mrs. Anna Mangold. Butler. Butler Co.. Pa.
"As mr tronble grew worse sharp pains would
take me In the breast and rejion of the heart,
shooting through under tbe shunlder blades.
Nlehtsueats came'on and weakened mc fear
fully. My appetite Lontinued good, but every
thing I ate seemed to d.agrce with me. I
suffered almost constantly witb spells of terri
ble neuralgic pain in my stomach, which would
invariably bo lollowed by diarrhoea ana a sen
sation of nauea and faint'icss. My sleep was
re&tlcrss and broken by bid dreams aud night
mare, and did me no good. I would arise in the
morning feeling more- tired tban tbe night
before.
I tried many things to get relief, but all in
vain. My wble sytem was undermined by
tho disease I finally grew so weak I was un
able to walk. In short, I was as near dead as It
was possible to be and still live. I was in this
condition when my attention was attracted to
Srs. Coneland and. Blair. I decided to call on
tbem. I did so, and finding their charges so
Terr reasonable began their treatment.
"Wnat was the result? Very surprising to
me, I assure you. I began to improve almost at
once. My svmptoras gradually left me, until
to-day I am like a different person entirely. I
feel better than I bave in five years. I gained
31 pounds In two months under tbelr splendid
care. It is certain, without a doubr, they saved,
my life, and I cannot find words to express my
gratitude." J
Mrs. Mangold lives, as stated, in Batter. Pa.;
wbere this statement can be readily verified lot
person or Dy letter.
