The managers of the Corbett- FitZsimmons
mill VIII meet with as cffectual opposition
at the hands of the United States Gov
ernmcnt as they did W ith Gov. Culberson,
OF Texas, if they cnceayor TO pull off the
big fight in the Indian Territory.
The United States statutes are sufficient
10 prevent the fight, and steps looking to
that end are now being taken by the In
terror Department, and should the man.
ayers of The affair invade the Indian Ter
ritory they viii be rejected as intruders.
The class OF people that will be brought into
the Territory to witness the fight are
considered a demoralizing element to the
Indians, and their presence is not wanted
there.
United States officers OF the Territory
will be instructed TO see that the statutes
are enforced and the fight prevented.
Ample means will be furnished these Of
ficials to eject intruders. and the chiefs of
the five civilized tribes will be instructed
to cooperate with the United States Of
ficcrs in the matter.
Officials laugh at the Aabsurdity of the
statement that the principals of the fight
would join the Choctaws or some other
tribe to enable them to successfully cope
with the authorities and pull off the MILL
Such action on their part would not aid
them in the least in the fulfillment OF their
object.

The Washington Market House team, the
crack colored ball tossing aggregation of
the District, Travelled in fast company YES
terday afternoon wncn tney contested with
the All Washington nine in a game at Ma
tional Park. The latter organization was
composed of local professionals, who have
been playing ball out of town during the
season and they had no difficulty whatever
in defeating the colored gentlemen who
opposed them. "Lany" wade's ball, which
has so often been the winning card for his
team, was very easily connected with by his
opponents. In fact, the sphere came over
the plate as big as balloon and was
nailed hard and in every direction by the
Washingtonians. who earned nearly every
run they scored.
Mace, who at one time-long ago-twirled
the ball for the Senators and who has re-

locals and was excelently supported by

was performed very creditably. He was
an immense success with the esuck, smashing
out two doubles and single, and tallying
three scores out of three times at the bat.
The remaining portion of the team played
pretty clever fielding game, but was rather
weak with the stick.
The Marketers, although giving fair ex-
