THE RING

James J. Corbett denies that there is
any truth in the reported negotiations
for match between himself and Peter
Maher, as stated in the New York Sum-
So far as the Olympic club is concerned
the ex-champion states that he is on
good terms with it's members. Corbett
emphatically declares that he will en-
tertain no proposition to fight any man
except FitZsimmons. He adds: "If the
American people can stand Fitzsim-
mons without meeting me. all right
can stand it, too. as 1 don't have to de-
pend on fighting for livelihood"
w. w. Naughton Of the Examiner
thinks that whatever arrangement
Fitzsimmons may enter into will to a
certainty be contingent on his being al
lowed to take a trip to England. He
is inflated with the idea that they will
make hero of him over there, and pos
sibly he may have a somewhat cordial
reception if he is far-seeing enough to
sign for a go with Corbett before he
starts on his travels If he neglects to
do this he will find that tae average
Briton will regard him in the light of
a shuffler and poser, and before many
moons he will gladly avail himself of an
opportunity to return to this country
and tackle Pompadour Jim in "self-de-
fense."
The National Athletic club of San
Francisco is endeavoring to secure
second meeting between Choynski and
Sharkey. Choynski is very anxious for
another chance to prove to the public
that he can stop Sharkey in eight rounds
or less. He says that had it not been
for the accident which happened to
him in the first round of bis last fight
he would have won the long end of the
purse. but Sharkey is of a very different
opinion.

ing the record. d. e. Brown of STAN
ford broke the previous mile record by
more than couple of seconds. The

THE HORSE

The advent Of Nancy Hanks as ma
tron. following her retirement from the
turf in 1893, Is regarded as a sensatlonal
occurrence in the trotting world. AS
the filly which the junior ex-champion
of the sulky foaled at the Forbes farm,
near Boston, on the 4th inst, was got
by Arion, she combines the two fastest
records ever inherited from a sire ana
dam. The average Of speed thus rep
resented is small fraction under 2:O6.
Regarding this notable event the
American Horse Breeder or Boston says
in it's last issue:
Attempts to produce foals from
mares that have held worlds champion
trotting records have in several in
stances proved unsuccessful. 1t was SO
with Lady Suffolk, and has been so thus
far with Maud S. (2.0SA), and Sunol
(2.0SA). The time trotter, Floral
Temple (219A), produced three foals.
Two were by sons of Rysdyks Hamble-
tonian, the third and last being by
imported bennington. Neither of them
is found in the 2:30 list. The famous
Goldsmith Maid (2:1D also produced
three foals after she was ~ years old,
one of which died young. All three were
by Gen. Washington, whose sire was
Gen. Knox and whose dam was the re-
nowned trotter, Lady Thorn (2:1SA).
Neither of Goldsmith Maids foals ever
got into the coveted 2:30 circle. Her son.
Stranger, however, Is SuCCeSSLul SpeS9
perpetuator."
Last year the Year Book recorded Al
stations that had sired 30 or more trot-
ters that had broken marks of 2:30 or
2:25 or better according to their way
of going. This season there are eight
newcomers. These are Wilkes Boy
(2:241s), Chimes (2:3OA), Wedgwood
GID, Egmont, Dauntless, Brown
Wilkes (2:211a), Altamont (2:26a4), and
Sphinx (2:201h), Electioneer is still far
in the lead, he having 151 trotters and
lone PAGER, 152 in all to his credit.
Eectioneer has fewer new ones this
season, only five, than he has had for
some time past. His sons are doing
very well in the stud. and of the eight
