wishes of the members.
Mr.. Osten has opposed the Academy

Warren Lewis, manager of the Greater
New York Athletic Club, located at Coney
Island, called on Mr.. Backus today in re-
gard to the matter Mr.. Lewis had of
fered purse of $4,000 for the big fellows
to fight for at his club and Corbett had
signified his intention of accepting this
sffer Mr.. Lewis was accompanied by
Lawyer Taylor, his counsel Police Com
missioner Welles was also present.
After a brief discussion District Attorney
BaclSus gave it as his opinion that the
proposed match was a prize fight and in
violation of Section 458; that it would not
be allowed ito take place and that the men
would not be allowed to go into the ring
for the purpose of having q fight.
This emphatic opinion of the District
Attorney, which was coneurred in by the
Police Commissioners. makes ii certain
that the fight cannot take place at Coney
Island Mr.. Lewis will withdraw his offer
OF purse of s26,000 for the fight This
leaves the Bohemian Club of New York

club has offered a purse OF S25000, and
