friend Pat Sheedy says, the marble

Yes, it is dollar to a doughnut that
Corbett and Mitchell will fght-but
where? All, there's the rub. The
battle will cause, in my opinion, more
international interest than the Cribb-
Molyneaux, Heenan-Sayers, Sullivan
Mitchell, Kilrain-Smith, or any other
international contest. The two men,
with the possible exception of Peter
Jackson, are unquestionably the clever
est living. The majority of people be-
lieve that they are the greatest Caucas-
ian fighters breathing, and naturally
the most intense interest attaches To
the contest. Representative clubs,
North and South, Will undoubtedly
make big bids for the fight, but whether
they will reach the colossal figures
demanded by Champion Corbett is prob
lematical. Seventy-five thousand dol
lars is n tremendous sum to take
chance on, but this | will say, Judge
Newton and his confreres of the Coney
Island Athletic Club are public spirited
and game men. IL there is any possible
chance to secure that contest these en-
terprising gentlemen will seize it. 1t
is their ambition to have the heavy
weight championship of the world de-
cided at the clubhouse by the sea, and
IL our Southern friends expect that bat
tie they will have to put up the har~est
kind of hard fight to secure IL.
Corbett, i see, gives us The prefer
ence, other things, that is, stakes,
purse and non-magisterial interference,
being equal, while Mitchell, it is said,
prefers some club in the Sunny South.
The reason he assigns for this is pc
culiar one. He AYERS that he prefers a
referee who is wealthy, influential
man, the inference being that a poor

JOHN NJ. DEAN COMPANY.

The same viii be extended to Mr.. Cor
bett. The contest will be absolutely on
its merits, and the best man will win.
The wealth or poverty of the referee
will cut no figure in the contest.
Now word as to the fight. II will
probably be the most scientific and de-
termined ever witnessed in this coun-
try. Both men are clever to the high
est possible degree and possess marvel
Gus powers of endurance. Each is brim-
full of confidence and will hot succumb
until given the coup de grace. Mark
the prediction. 1t will be nothing of
one-sided battle, as the partisans of
each hope for and vociferously pro-
claim Any one who wagers his money
on such an outcome of the issue will be
literally throwing it into the fire. 1t
will be grand, determined struggle
from beginning TO end.
The purse which will be offered will
be the of greatest ever known in the an
mails fistiana. Purse and stakes will APP
proximate 100000, fortune fit for
Kings to contend for. The subsequent
emoluments which will accrue from
theatrical exhibitions will probably
amount to 500, 600 year. Should the
present pugilistic rage keep up the win
ner could in the next five years thus
coin half million of dollars. Should
he remain champion, Corbett ought TO
be able TO keep on the high road to
prosperity for decade, as he is but 26
years of age and in the lusty youth of
his pugilistic career.
The Coney Island Club is engaged in
no game of bluff when it says that il
intends to employ all honorable means
10 win this contest. II is not concerned
m this battle alone, but is ambitious TO
make its home the home Of square,
manly fistic sport in the future. 1t will
strive TO have all the championship bat
tleS come off within its arena. II will
especially endeavor to have the battle
between the winner of this contest and
that sable Antipodean wonder, Peter
Jackson. take place within its walls.
Should Corbett win that contest is sure
TO occur and it would be the battle of
century
Patrons Of fstic sport are exceedingly
acute and wlll stand no imposition.
They are quick 10 detect fraud and will
have no "barneys" or "throw-downs. v
II fighters yield to the temptation which
the offers of large purses induce and

BY FALSE DRAFTS.
A FRENCHMAN SWINDLES SEV-
ERAL MONTREAL BANKS.
Ho Moved In the Highest Society and
was supposed to bo q Reputable
business Man.

! MONTREAL, March s.-A clever French
man has swindled some of the principal
banks of this city out of about $4,000.
The man is one Riboulet, who arrived In
Canada from Paris about five years ago,
and, starting for the northwest, worked
himself into the good graces of Gabrielle
Dumont, the once trusted lieutenant OF
Louis Reil, the half-breed lunatic who led
the northwest rebellion.
Riboulet organized sort of "Wild
West" show, with Dumont as the chief at
traction. When the "Wild West business
was played out he came here and started
sort OF commission business, after which
he organized the Montreal Cork company.
He was great swell In way,
Spent Money Freely.
was member of the best French-Cana-
dian societies, and supposed to do good
business.
Two weeks ago he suddenly disappeared.
But little notice was taken of the matter
except among those directly interested.
His total liabilities amounted to about
$4,000, but IL has since leaked out that sew
eral of the principal banks in the city were
taken In for about half that amount
through an ingenious series of false drafts
during the last week of his stay here.
IL appears he presented a number or
drafts at various banks, on supposed Gus
toners both in the Dominion and the
United States, who, according to his story,
owed him for supplies Of cork; in each case
the money
Was UnhesitstingIy Paid.
The Banque National was bitten to the
hume of $4,000, some Of which, 1t Is said,
Is secured.
When the drafts were returned, deteo-
tives were Immediately engaged to trace
the man, but at first the only clew was
that he had gone across the line. Yester-
day however, word was received that he Isl in
hiding with some French Canadian friends
in Boston, and that his arrest might be ex-
pected shortly.
His friends here say that, should he be
captured, he will fight extradition to the
bitter end. The banks, however, are de-
cided to press their case, and will bring
him back il possible.
