II Brooklyn. to finally decide upon The
DUPLICATION of Lewis in the matter of
holding the Corbett~F itZsimmons fight Al
'oney Island. There had been hearing
n the case. Friday at which Mr.. Baekus
plainly told Lewis and his companions
hat the battle could not be held in his
Jurisdiction. After a long conference Mr..
3ackus reiterated his previous opinion.
,nlE that he was more emphatic. This
opinion was that the proposed meeting
between Corbett and Fitzsimmons is il
'rize fight and in violation of section 45S
If the Penal Code. and would not be al
owed to take place and that the men
would not be allowed to go into the ring
or the purpose of having a fight. War
'en Lewis it is reported. said in SUBJ
stance later that the local authorities
'annot prevent the fight. and that in his
opinion it would take place just the
same. whatever the Kings county Off
,ials said or did All OF which seems very
oolish. In the first place, neither Cor
,ett nor Fitzsimmons would take the
nance of being arrested over the river
or any number~of alleged athletic club
purses. and any attempt on the part OF
.ewis to defy the Kings county authori-
les Woald end in his defeat
