Dallas, Tex, Nov. 2.-Joe Vendig to-
day telegraphed Dan Stuart he had a
building In Brooklyn secured where Cor
bett and Fitzsimmons could fight before
10000 persons. and asked Stuart to offer

con, Columbus and Charleston.
The admission Of Columbus completes
the circuit and makes the league six
club one. There is nothing TO be done
now until spring, but the league magnates
should not let too much time 20 by. They
should organize more thoroughly and for
mulate set Of rules, appoint a commit
tee on schedule, fix salary limit and do
many other little things which 4 will not
be wen to leave or until ii Is too late.
Mr.. Charles A. Lamar OF Atlanta, one
OF the league promoters, and prominent
figure In the league was in Savannah last
week. He talked most encouragingly OF
the new league and said II Is here to stay.
The Atlanta end, he said, was being well
looked after and stated that the Gate
City would have team Of pennant win
ners.
Now that the Southern League has been
turned down by Nick Young, and In the
language OF the street, given the
marble heart, Henry Powers has lost
some Of his confidence and wants to make
terms. He has suggested a scheme which
is to disband the Southeastern and or
ganize Southern League. giving Atlanta,
Savannah and Charleston franchises in
the proposed league along with New Or
leans, Montgomery, Nashville and Mem
phls. ...
His proposition was rejected by the
Southeastern people. and now Mr.. Pow
ers is in the position OF one which CHM
ME Fadden would Illustrate as being
"trun down." The Southeastern Is an as
sured permanency, and will offer and ac-
cept no compromise OF any sort Compro-
misses seem TO be in order Just now. but
not with the Southeastern.

months, making time that would show him
to be easily a faster man than Walthour.
Charlie Coburn, Kinsey's tandem mate,
and fast rider himself, was in Valdosta,
and gives several reasons for Kinseys
poor showing. The Valdosta track is pc
cuiar one, very heavy and easily blocked.
MI Coburn says that Walthour and Win
sett, the professionals who raced with Kin
sey. blocked him and worked system OF
pacing which defeated the Savannah boy
Mr.. Coburn says Walthour is a very clev-
or rider but he does not think he could
beat Kinsey on the Savannah track. What
Kinsey lacks and what he has always
lacked is a good head. In race he appears
to lose himself entirely and while he has
plenty OF speed he Is wanting in track
generalship. This was noticed in the races
in Savannah last spring, when Henry Pow
ers OF Jacksonville defeated him. In these
races Kinsey paced all the way through
and appeared to have the races well in
hand when Powers would squirt at the end
and lose him.
OF course kinsey was at a disadvantage
in Valdosta, being alone, and there is a
great deal in that.IIad he had some one of
his own team in the races with him to pace
him and keep him up in spirits he might
have done better, for that he is fast rid
er and has lots Of speed cannot be gain
said.
The match race between Kinsey and
Walthour yesterday was victory for Was
thour. The distance was mile, and the
time 2:45.

betting of small amounts on the Yale
Princeton game and the terrible trounclng
given the Yale team was a surprise even
to Princetons most ardent followers.
Princeton was the favorite in the betting,
but the reputation OF Yale, along with its
accustomed luck and well known grit, gave
that team many followers. The victory
OF the Tigers places them at the head OF
the big teams of the east and there must
have been joy to spare in old Nassau last
