Every Facility Afforded the Champion
for His Preliminary Work.
The training quarters where Champion
James ]. Corbett will put in his last
months work in preparation for his battle
with Fitzsimmons at Dallas, October 3, are
beautifully situated in the suburbs of San
Antonio. The commodious club house cf
the San Antonio Jockey Club has been
placed at his disposal and he will find the
track to be in fine condition for his road
work.
A hand ball court is being erected near
the house according to plans made by a
New York architect and approved by the
champion. The designer had no very great
strain on his intellect, for the entire "shoot-
ing MATCH" as Texas sports say, consists
of four high wooden walls. Rooms will be
provided for the party at the club house.
They have all been furnished at a consider
able expense. The Russell cottage, which
will be occupied as residence by the

his party are expected to arrive not later

On rising she was again struck. At her
loud cries for assistance the man ran off.

There will be a special meeting of the
trustees of Howard University in Novem-
Der for the purpose Of considering the Pc
tition of James NJ. GresOry for reinstate-
ment as professor Of Latin at that insti-
tuition. Prof. Gregory was dropped from

economy in this department in order that
certain repairs and improvements might be

he should be forced now to leave the in
stitution from which he graduated many
years ago, and with which he has been
connected as teacher for twenty-seven sea-

view of their action by the trustees last
spring, but a meeting could not be had
owing to the absence of several members
Of the board from the city.

ANOTHER EXCITING FINISH.
Senators Pulled OF II Victory In the
Tenth Inning.

Senator's Pulled OF u Victory in the
Tenth Inning.
The Washington team owes its victory
over the New York insists yesterday to
Umpire Hurst. At the close Of the ninth
inning, with the score a tie, to A, 1t was,
in the opinion of both teams, and Of the
great majority of the thousand spectators,
much too dark to play another inning. But
Mr.. Hurst thought differently, and ordered
the game to go on, despite the rather vigor-
Gus protests of both sides.
Doyle, the first man at the bat in the
tenth inning, foGled to Mcclure, Dohney
struck out for the third time, Fuller and
Herman singled, and then Van Haltren put
one in center, which, getting past Brown,
placed the batsman on third and scored
Fuller and Herman. Davis ended the inn
ing by fly to DeMontreville. Then every
body but the New York people insisted that
the game be called because of darkness,
but Hurst obstinately refused, land the
ban1 played on"
Mcclure reached first on Dohney's slow
ness, Setback singled, Cartwright followed
The best that Crooks could do was to fly
to Stafford But DeMontreville lifted a long
one to Herman, on which Setback scored,
Cartwright going to third, and then Ander-
son batted in place of Mercer, putting a
hot one between first and second, bringing
Cartwright in with the winning run. At
that point in the proceedings Mr. Hurst
concluded that it was too dark to play, and
called the game.
Mercer and Mcclure formed the home
battery, and again the youngster proved
too much for the metropolitan pigmies.
Dohney, the south paw, assisted by the
angelic Doyle, officiated for the visitors
Both clubs scored one each in the third
inning, and in the following one the second
raters put three to their credit After the
two Davis players had gone out, German
and Stafford singled. Mercer was instruct
when Dohney fooled everybody. Including
himself, by knocking one over Selbac his
head, scoring the three base runners and
putting himself on third, where he stayed.
The Washington people got one in the
same inning. and then in the sixth they
tied the score. The following score tells
what they did:

1t is Said She Will Not Return This
Fall.
The New York World says: 1t may be
safely stated that Valkyrie III will not
cross the ocean this year. She will, unless
all signs play false. be laid up for the win
ter at South Brooklyn or the Erie basin.
Lord Dunraven's change of front is in
reality not so sudden as it seemed to those
who took trip down to the Erie basin yes
terday morning expecting to find Valkyrie
departing and found instead the crew busy
unloading her stores and carrying them
aboard the City of Bridgeport. Rumors
that the unsuccessful cup hunter would
stay on this side until next season have
been rife since last Friday. These rumors
crystallized into what was practically
certainty last Monday night when Capt.
Garfield showed Theodore Krombach, one
of his most intimate friends in this country,
telegram ordering him to stop work on
Vaikyrie until further notice. The further
notice. came at breakfast time yesterday
in the shape of another telegram ordering
that the stores be taken out of Valkyrie
and put aboard the Bridgeport. And it was
in the performance of this order that the
crew devoted the greater part of yesterday.

NEW YORK, September 26.-Lord Dun

sIeIo the winter on THIS SIDE OF the Attain
tic is to have her race again, and Incl
dentally, 1t is said, to silence those of his
critics who have asserted that he was
afraid to have his yacht meet the Defender
again.
The fact that the Valkyrie is to race here
next year, if opportunity offers, was made
public today by H. Maitland Kersey, who
has acted as Lord Dunravens spokesman.
There has been great deal of talk
about special races between the two YES
sels," he said, land If anybody wants Val
kyrie to race, she will be on hand. If De-
fender goes to the Mediterranean, Valkyrie
will go there Also"
