"We are willing to pay big money for the
best fight" said Captain Williams, s'but
we want the best fight" The pool rooms
say the betting is very light so far. The
odds, however. will be about to 8 on Sulli-

money on the Mver fight. There is nothing
new from the camp fighters. At Bay st.

Batting on the Battle.

CHICAGO, Aug. 24-[Special ]-But little
money has been placed on Corbett in this
city. In fact in no city in the country has
Corbett so few supporters as in Chicago. He
showed here several times and the universal
verdict was that he was not strong enough
physically for the champion. There is
plenty OF Sullivan money here and those
who desire to place it are willing to give
odds, but cannot get on at any fair figures.
The report that Chicago syndicate had
sent sl5, 900 to Boston to back Corbett is alb
surd. The betting here is almost entirely on
combinations. The three lights are grouped
and local hackers are picking Sullivan.
Dixon, and Myer to win. Odds Of two to
one are being offered and taken against
picking three winners. Those are about the
correct odds, as Sullivan and Dixon will be
at 500 to $40 at the ringside, and Myer and
Dixon. All the talent regard the colored
boy as the certain winner, and rightly so.

HARTFORD, Aug. 2S.-[SpeciaL]-A reporter
had chat with the great driver, Charles
Marvin. on Monday.
He was asked what he thought of Sunol's
chances against the new record with the
bicycle sulky. The great reinsman said:
"Well, 1 am not very confident, but we
will have a good try later in the season.
You know Sunol is always at her best in the
fall"
How much will the pneumatic tire help
herr"
"Nearly one and a half seconds, believe"
was Marvin's quiet answer.
"Mr. Bonner saw the rubber wheel for the
first time at Meadville, did he not?"
Eyes, and he was immensely pleased with
what he saw it do. He told me that he

heard about it, but then he had not seen
one. Now he Is figuring what Maud could
have done hitched to one."
"Shall you trot Arion at your meeting
next month at Meadville?"
"Arion is being shaped up now and
think he will surprise some Of the folks be-
fore snow flies"
Have you heard any authentic news
about Alierton's mishap?" was asked.
Eyes; it is not the weak ankle which has
given way again, as reported but merely
strain of the muscles of the hip, and am
told the colt will come out better than

There is now chance offered to any 100
pound pugilist in the country, as the follow
ing business-like challenge shows. The
challenge was lett at this office last evening
by John Quinn and accompanied by forfeit
OF $3.50.
"As any number of pugilists who say
they can fight at 120 pounds are talking
about wanting to fight for the feather-weight
championship a chance is now offered any
of them. Paddy Mcbride will fight Van
Heest, George Siddons, Ed Pearce or any
body else, at the weight named, to q finish
for bet of 81. 600 and tho largest purse of.
fered by any club. now put up q forfeit of
$3.50 and If anybody accepts the challenge
they can either cover the money at THE
DISPATCH Office or put up $3.50 at any other
office and my forfeit will be forwarded on.
This is no bluff, as Mcbride is quite willing
to act up to this challenge"
The above is directly aimed at Van Heest,
as he has been talking 80 largely about
fighting Dixon. The latter states he will
take long rest after fighting Skelly, ana
that will give Heest, Siddons or any of the
others ample opportunity to meet M Bride.
If Van Heest does not respond to the chal-
lenge he will certainly have no license to
keep talking about fighting Dixon.

MARK BALDWIN RELEASED,
The Local Pitcher VIII Get His Walking
Papers This Morning.

There was so much dissatisfaction regard
ing the work of Mark baldwin in the box
during the second game yesterday that the
club officials last evening decided to release
him this morning. For some time past
Marks work has not been satisfactory to
the club officials. He has been loser, and
his unfortunate work OF giving SO many
bases on balls has turned all the local
patrons of the game against him. Almost
every game he has pitched recently the
crowd has yelled its disapprobation of him
most numerically. Under these circum-
stances the management came to the con-
clus1on that it would be better for the club
and better for Mark to leave the team.
An official of the club, speaking OF the
matter last evening, said: 'No doubt Bald
win Is good pitcher, but he is loser Tor
u.s. His work has disgusted almost all of
our patrons, and we could not keep him any
longer. He has wanted to leave the club for
some time. and that may have made him
careless. He may do better for some other
club than he has done for us. The frequency
with which he gives bases on balls makes
him most unreliable and lost game to-day.
We have three good pitchers left in Ehret,
Terry and Esper.''
After the game last evening Baldwin's
father and an official of the club had sit hot
and heavy" concerning Marks pitching.
