NJ c. A. team again yesterday at Capitol
Park by a cne-sided score Of 16 to 8. This
was the second game in the new District
Amateur League. and the increase in at
tendance proved that good ball playing will
always draw.
The Pensioners had the game won by the
fourth inning. when eleven hits were made
off of Kearns delivery and five bases on
balls netted thirteen runs. Morrison was
then substituted, and, while he was batted
hard. the hits were we'll scattered, and only
three runs resulted.
first inning on hits by Kearns. Durant and
Hodge. and were then held down until the
fifth, when Knowles was hit by the pitcher,
stole second and came home on Cooks hit
to center. The next three men went out in
order. In the seventh a batting streak
came down Upon them, and three more
runs were added. In the last inning kearns
hit for base, stole second and came home
on Durant's hit making their last run.
1t might be said that the Pensioners were
somewhat strengthened by the appearance
of Bolway and Wright The latter. who
pitched, was very effective. holding his OPP
ponents down to ten hits. Beall played
third base. and put up very pretty game,
accepting all but one chance.
For the Y. NJ. C. A. Hodge, Dalton and
Knowles played a sharp fielding game, and

TALKING OF MENICO.
SpOrtin.; Men Doubtful About Pulling
or the Fight Mt Dallas.

SAN ANTONIO. Tex, July 30.-A private
dispatch was received here this morning
from one of the officers Of the Florida Ath-
letic Club inquiring as to the feasibility Of
pulling off the Corbett-Fitzsimmons battle
in Mexico, just across the border from
Laredo or Eagle Pass, Tex. The club de-
sired to know what facilities in the matter
of transportation could be afforded by rail-
roads leading to the border. The latter
question WAS Immediately taken up by tele-
graph with the railroads, and 1t is believed
a satisfactory guarantee as to rates and
transportation facilities will be given by the
passenger department of the roads con-
cerned.
1t is believed that the outspoken attitude
of Gov. Culberson toward the proposed
pugilistic carnival precludes all possibility
of it taking place anywhere in Texas.
A telegram has been received from Cen
eral Passenger Agent Martin Of the Aran-
sas Pass railroad, now in New York, stat
ing that he had been authorized to procure
training quarters for Champion Corbett. A
preference was expressed for quarters on
Government Hill, near Fort Sam Houston.
DALLAS, Tex, July 30.-The following
telegram has been received at the head
quarters of the Florida Athletic Club:
ORANGE, Tex, July 29.-Offer $4,000 for
the Corbett- Fitzsimmons glove contest and
guarantee to bring it off free from Interrupt
ton or interference on island near
Orange the title of which is in dispute be-
tween Texas and Louisiana.
