SERIOUSLY ILL.
Corbett Said to Be in No Condi-
tion to Fight Mitchell.
A Blood Disease That May Lose Him
His Proud Title.
Corbctt Has Not Been Thoroughly Wen
Man For Years, since lie Fought
Jackson-It Is Thought lie May
Forfeit to- Charley Mitchell.

New YORK, March 2.-The report
comes from the west that Jim Corbett
is seriously i'll. and that Manager w.
A. Brady may cancel his engagements.
Corbett has not been thoroughly well
man for years, or since he fought jack
son in San Francisco. At that time,
nearly three years ago, he was suffer
ing from a blood disease, which then
threatened to incapacitate him. His
face and body were said TO have been
broken out in spots, and he was greatly
debilitated Had he been well he no
doubt would have whipped Jackson, as
the Australian was hardly able to rise
from his chair when so ordered by the
referee. 1t is now thought that Corbett
may have to forfeit to Mitchell In
that case English Charley would be
5000 richer and the proud possessor
of the title of champion of the world,
1t has been no secret here for months
that Corbetts blood malady was troub-
ling him again. In sporting circles its
character was made the subject for
many jokes. He was examined few
months ago by DR. J. w. Gibbs, who,
when seen Tuesday, said lie did not care
to discuss the diseases of Il patient
Mike Donovan, who knows more
about Corbett's real condition than any
man in America, was equally reticent.
He admitted the champion was II sick
man. but did not wish 10 express him
self on the subject The general Inn
preston is that Mitchell is a lucky man.
