BROOKLYN POINTERS.
latest Kews About Candidates for
the Big Turf Event.
THE MITCHELL AND CORBETT BOW.
Excursion Trains for the Opening of the
Local Ball Season.
THE SEW TOJ5K TEAM'S FIRST GAME
Patrons of the turf are beginning to take
a livelier interest than ever in the big turf
handicaps that are approaching, and as far
as Pittsburg is concerned more money has
been invested for the Brooklyn and Su
burban so far this Tear than on any previous
events of the kini Many "Western Penn
sylvania citizens are backing Tenny, hut
that famous horse is gradually receding in
the betting and has gone back a point or
two during the last few days. An Eastern
authority of prominence is inclined to
think that Tenny and Longstreet may not
see the post for the Brooklyn, and as a re
sult he says a 4-year-old will be the win
ner. He points out that the 4-year-olds
entered are an exceptionally good class of
horses and if fit and well will be hard to
beat.
Soma Likely Runners.
The authority referred to says: "Just
consider for a minute, Bermuda, Pes
sara, Strathmeath, Picknicker, Terrifier,
Enssell, Key del Key, Portchester, Montana,
lleckon. Ambulance, IIntriguante, San
Juan, Uno Grande and some eicht or nine
others. "Why, they all know how to use
their feet, and what's more, on last year's
running they're all on top of one another.
One can have a preference, but he can't
back it up by any line of argument. Take
the J. A. & A. H. Morris lot "What can
anv one tell about them? They were run
off" their legs, and they had to run them
selves 'on' atjain. Beckon, Terrifier and
Ambulance all three looked as if they were
in training to tro through a keyhole half the
season, while Bnsell was run often enough
to sour the best tempered horse in the world.
Considering the grcellinc he's been given,
both as a 2 and 3-year-old, he must not only
have been a wonderful colt, but he must
also haTe been made of cast iron.
Hones Doing Well.
"I hear a lot about L'Infrignante. She's
certainly a hard, useful-looking sort, but
she's never won over a mile, and seems
better suited lor seven furlongs. I may be
wrontr. but that's mv opinion. As regard?
Terrifier, I know at the opening of the
Brooklyn spring meeting he was tried better
than Busseil, but that stable's trying their
hordes most every day, so that one can't lay
much stor by that. Ambulance, who
never looked herself, didn't show that she
liked a distance: so what an you to think
about a stable like that? They were beaten
by nearly every horse that they beat, and
yet people are going crazy over Busseil,
Terrifier and IIntriguante. As for the
others of the same age, I shan't say any
thing until some of them have been put
through their facings."
Dispatches from the East state that the
weather has not been favorable lor training,
and everybody agrees that Bey del Bey has
a trood chance, as he is the fancy of "Matt"
Allen. The hone is big framed and has
thickened considerably and looks now every
inch a weight-carrier. He is expected to
stand his training well. Uno Grande has
also wintered well. Clarendon so far has
not given satisfaction, and he will not likely
be a starter.
THE H01SY PUGILISTS.
Latest Alleged Escapaaes of Mitchell and
Slavln In the East.
According to dispatches from the East
Mitchell and Slavln aie having a high old
time in New York. Mitchell is once more
reported as wanting to fight Slavin and tho
latter is once reported as calling Mitchell a
cur.
The two pugilists are also roported as hav
ing gone to where Corbett was and told him
that he was onlv a bluffer and couldn't
fight a little bit. Tho reports conclude bv
saying that the police stopped the noise of
the two foreigners. ,
If Mitchell and Slavin acted as stated their
conduct is to be severely condemned, but it
must not be forgotten that almost everv
iastern paper has for a long time been cen
suring and slandering the pair in an extrav
agant manner. While Mitchell may be talk
ing foolishly, the wild vaporing ot Sullivan
about everybody eUe, and the tall talk of
Corbett cannot be oveilooked. This all
shows that the entire business is one of
blufl and bluster, and all parties are striv
ing to get the public ear. It is also apparent
that not one person in a hundred is disposed
to give Mitchell and Slavin a fair show.
THE FAMOUS LOCAL PACES.
Charles F. rreilmore Will Drive Him Tills
Tear as Usual.
Mr. McCormick, tbe owner of the local
pacer Dallas, said during a conversation
with the writer yesterday:
"Dallas is getting along wonderfully well
and I sec no reason why he does not make a
new mark this year. He will not start until
the Homcwood summer meeting, and al
though Hal Pointer mavnotbe here there
will be pacers here that will give Dallas quite
an argument."
A report has been circulated by several
newspapers that Charley Predmore, who
drove Dallas last year is dead. This is not
true. Mr. Predmore's brother Cal died at
Youngstown lately, but Charley will be up
behind Dallas this year as usual if all goes
well.
Slavln Defends Mitchell.
After Mitchell and Corbett had theirq'uar
relMonday nlght,tbe following conversation
took place between Slavin and Corbett:
"Xou haven't treated Mitchell right," said
Slavin. "You said he refused to box you in
the Garden."
"So he did," returned Corbett.
"That is not the case," -was Slavin's re
joinder. "Weieceiveda telegram in Chi
cago saying that you were sickand couldnot
po on with the show. It was signed bv
Brady."
"Well, Brady never sent it," said Corbett.
"I'm as game a man as you or any other
pugilist on top oreaith."
"But - 011 haven't treated Mitchell right,"
insisted Slavin, "and that's all there is to It,
I've got a record and so has Charley." ho
went on. "and vou've cot one. too." '
"Yes,and it'sasgoodas yours or Ct
5 yours or Charley's,"
said Corbett.
"Well, Charley Is a game man, and you
made a mistake in saying ho w as afraid. Ho
isn't afraid of anything that breathes, Mr.
Corbett, and you can bet pounds to pennies
on that."
The Giants Play a Tie.
Hichmokd. March 22. Special. The New
Yorks played their first game of the season
to-day. There was a fair crowd scattered
around the bleacheries, and the work of
rowers' men seemed to please them. Inter
est In the game centered in the work or the
new men, and it was very pleasing to all
who saw it. Tbe game was cut short during
the first half of the ninth inning owin" to
the chilly state of the weather. Powers
deemed it inadvisable to keep the men in
the damp air any longer. Silver King ar
rived to-day, and will take part in to-morrow's
game with the Dominions, assisted by
a New York battery.

Mntrle for Elmira.
Elvira, March 22. James Mutrie, wearing
a high silk hat and a nobby suit of clothes,
arrived In Elmira last night and. has spent
to-day talking baseball -with the local mag
nates. The ex-manager or the New York
Giants attended the meeting of the directors
of the Elmira club to-night and made
arrangements to act as manager of the
team the comlnir season. He is very en
thusiastic over Elmlra's prospects, and says
lie will eause considerable hustling among
the other clubs. He expects to arrange ex
hibition frames between the local club and
the New York and Washington clnbs before
the season proper opens. The directors
voted unanimously against admitting New
Haven and Providence to tbe League and
thus making a ten-club League.
STILL KOBE WILD TALK.
Mr. Mitchell Alleged to Fay Bis Respects
Pointedly to Mr. Sullivan.
New York, March 22. A morning paper
affirms that these words were used by
Chailes Mitchell in talk with its reporter
yesterday:
"Sullivan's a nice chap, isn't heT He can't
fight a little bit. He is a big, fat, stiff lusher.
John L. Sullivan is a good for nothing
drunkard. He is afraid of me, that's all there,
is to it. Why didn't he accept my proposi
tion to fight me before the Olympic Club, of
New Orleans, for a $25,000 purs and a side
bet of $2,500? Isn't $30,000 enough to make
when you know you've got a sure thing? If
Sullivan thought he had a walkover why in
tho blawsted world didn't he give me a
fight? Oh! I know the reason why be
flunked irom me," said tho wily Englishman,
winking significantly.
"It's because he is afraid of me; that's all.
Ho knows very -well that I couldn't bet
$10,000 on the outside, and he knows posi
tively that the odds wonld be 2 to 1 against
me. It's a lie if they say tbat I didn't want
to fight him when we met on two occasions.
He, the big, fat stiff, also knows that be can't
lick me. He took up Corbett, another fake,
to have an excuse not' to meet me. They
will never meet, mind you. It's all a piece
of advertising."
MEMPHIS SPRING MEETING.
Big Crowds Arriving for the Races,
and
Good Racine Expected.
Memphis, Tess., March 22. As tho open
ing day of the spring meeting of the New
Memphis Jockey Club approaches, throngs
of people can be seen wending their way .in
tbe early morning to Montgomery Paik.
Owing to the recent bad weather and the
condition of the track Jor the past two
weeks, tho "going" has been off for this
time or the year, thus the majority of the
trainers say they have not had the chance
to give their colts the training they should
have had this late in tbe peason. Notwith
standing all that, the majority of tho horses
have wintered well.
Among the most promising 2-year-olds so
far are G. W. Johnson, a full brother to
Huron, Harvest Time, Humminz Bird, St.
Croix, King Lee, Shadow, Fort Worth and
C. II, Gillock. The trainers are keeping as
mum as Egyptian mummies about their
Derby candidates. Phil Dwyer and Wight
man are the best thought of so far, but the
knowing ones think that the Scruggins have
a high class one in Tom Harding. There
are now at the track 319 horses. Captains.
S. Brown's string is expected soon. The
majority of the jockeys have arrived, and
bookmakers and followers of the races are
arriving daily.
A NAEEOW POLICY.
Roles of Limitations That Cause Trouble
Among Homestead Ball Players.
Homestead, March 22. Special. At a
recent meeting of tho newly organized base
ball club of Homestead, a resolution was
passed tho sense of which was that no
players but those who were bona fide resi
dents of Homestead should be eligible to
membership in said club.
This action on the part of the new club
merits tbe severest criticism and those who
were friendly toward the new organization
and contributed liberally Irom their purses
say they will withdraw their patronage if
the objectionable resolution is allowed -to
stand. Bennett and Bothrunff. two of the
best players in tho new team, will leave if
the objectionable feature is not withdrawn
at once. In fact, this narrow policy adopted
at the outstart has been condemned on all
hands. It is without precedent, too, for
there is not a good ball team in the country
without at least one or two outside pi avers
in it; and this is as it should be for reasons
apparent to any ond with but the slightest
experience on the diamond. It is to be
hoped the Homestead club will soften its
bigotry toward outsiders and permit one or
two of them at least to Join their ranks.
WANT A BIG OPENING DAT.
Excursion Trains to Ron Here When the
St. Louis Browns Appsar.
Everything that can be done is being done
by the management of the local baseball
clnb to have a great opening day when the
St. Louis Browns come here. All the local
railroads have been asked to run ex
cursion trains from nearby towns on tbe
occasion of tbe opening event. Tliis re
quest will likely be granted, as tbe patrons
of the great national game residing at
Wheeling, East Liverpool, Beaver, Youngs
town and other places will have a chance to
see the contest at cheap rates.
ilanager Buckenberger, during a conver
sation, said: "All the players training at
home are in excellent condition and are
working hard. Bieroauer, Miller, Galvln
and Swartwood are all right."
A New Tennis Organization.
Bostox, March 22. Special Au effort Is
being made by tbe National Lawn Tennis
Association to make tbe inter-scholastic
tournament a national affair, to be held an
nually at Harvard. To bring this about an
inter-scholastic tennis association will have
to be formed from the principal preparatory
schools of the country." Notices in regard to
the association will be sent very soon by the
Harvard committee which has the matter in
charge. No one will be permitted to play in
tbe tournament unless the school he repre
sents is a member of the inter-scholastic
association. The tournament this year will
be held In the early part of May.
Smith Defeats Armstrong.
Sax Frakcisco, March 22. Billy Smith, a
Boston lightweight, defeated Billy Arm
strong, of San Francisco in U rounds at the
Occidental Club last night. Smith dropped
Armstrong in the second round with a left
in the face, and the latter remained on his

The claim tbat he was counted out was not
allowed. In the 13th Smith caught Arm
strong with a pivot blow on the Jaw stagger

Eble That is correct. .
Collier Call the next
Patrick Fallon had a license last year at
606 Grant street, and is all right. John
Finnerty, of 183 and 185 Fifth avenue, fol
lowed. He has a lease for ten years and
will build a new house there if granted a
license. His intention is to "have a $1 50 a
day house and about 33 rooms.
Christy You were refused for this house
in 1890, and 228 Fifth avenue in 1889.
. Finnerty I was.
Here Finnerty's counsel, B. 8. Fraser,
objected; tout Mr. Christy said he was
through. Mr. Fraser, however, agreed to
have his client 'build the house first, pro
vided a license was promised at the time it
was completed. He did not want to have
the license issued until the building was
completed.
Did Not Press the Remonstrance.
John J. Gallaher, of 21 Bedford avenue,
has a five-year lease on -the property, and
expects to get custom from "transom trade."
The Judge seemed satisfied, and called
John M." Green and Edward McCaffrey,
both vounp men, who are after a license at
5 "Wylie avenue. B. C. Christy had a re
monstrance against them, but said he would
let them stand on their faces.
Cornelius Horgan, better known as "Con"
Horgan, of 17 Wylie avenue, was only asked
a few questions.
Peter Hoartv is a new applicant -for the
house at 243 Fifth avenue. 'Squire BeiUy
and others were called to prove necessity
and character. Christy had a remonstrance,
stating the house was not a fit place bnt
this was denied.
F. "W. Jones is also a new applicant. He
is colored. The place is 21 Wylie avenue.
"William Knolle gave him a good character.
Christy called the attention of the Court to
the fact that the house was refused to
Thomas McDermitt last year.
Dennis McGlinchey, of "Wylie avenue
and "Washington street, has been licensed
for 12 years and is good for another. Peter
McGee, of 99 "Webster avenue, had license
before and was not questioned. Frank Mc
Laughlin has had license lor 13 years at 58
"Wylie avenue and just to take off the un
lucky number he is to have another. D." C
Ke'ary, of. 227 and 229 Fifth avenue, was told
there was a complaint from the police and
that his case would be held over for a fur
ther hearing. He is the first ot the present
license holders who has struck a snag..
John O'lfeil, of the Sixth Avenue Hotel
and President of the Pittsburg Protective
Association of Betail Liquor Dealers, was
not represented by counsel, and apparentlv
