MEN WITH MITTENS.
The Coming Battle Between
Sullivan and Ryan.
The Roller Skaters Get up a
National Congress.
Kansas Quarantined Against
Pleuro-PneumOnia.
The Montana smuggling Match.


NEW YORK, April l6.-There is CON
siderable talk to-day in sporting circles
over the match between Paddy Ryan and
John l. Sullivan, and already several
large bets have been made on the result,
the odds being slightly in favor of the
champion. Paddy believes that he
will win this fight, and he is joined in this
belief by many who heretofore gave him
the cold shoulder and ridiculed his
claims.
One ofthese men who has watched Sui
%livan's movements for six months past,
said to-day that he would not bet a cent
on him, even if he were matched to fight
with such men as Greenfield or Joe Co
burn,
THE fact is he remarked, the Bos-
ton man has abused himself SO badly by
drinking and general dissipation of
late that he has lost not only his
head but his strength. and with all his
training he won't be able to get away
with Ryan. Paddy, on the contrary. al
though addicted to an occasional spree,
has taken wonderfully good care of him
self, and if he is trained right he'll win
this fight if foul play is not resorted to.
I'll bet on him now, but you could not
have hired me to do so before
Col. Wizard, of Chicago, and Jimmy
Patterson. who are backing Paddy, are
enthusiastic over their man and are taking
all odds offered against him. Friends of
Sullivan express no alarm on his account
and ridicule the stories that he is broken
up.
Sullivan is as sound as a dollar and, if
anything, is in better form to-day han he
ever was said Billy Harding of the
Police Gazette, and will knock Paddy
as easily as he did Slade. All this
talk about him is simply nonsense.
The battle in all likelihood will be fought
at Butte, City, Mont. Sullivan will go
into training near Philadelphia next week
and Ryan probably will train at Chicago.
There is some talk that the match will he
made the subject of an investigation by
the grand Jury and hat Messrs. Harding
4 Fox will be arrested for conspiring to
violate the laws relating to prize fighting,
but those who are familiar with all the
circumstances connected with the match
say that neither the principals nor their
hackers need have the slightest fear, since
all the arrangements have been so care
fully made that no law has been broken.
That no alarm is felt among sporting men
is shown by the action of Harding, who
yesterday deposited with Harry Hill the
50, 500 for which Ryan and Sullivan are
expected to fight.
