LEFT FOR LANGTRY. TEXAS
Pugilistic Party Departs From FL Paso on
an EastSound Train.

FL Paso, Tex, Feb. 20-The pugilists
and the crowd bound for the fight left
on the eaStbound train over the South
ern Pacific, leaving here at 1905 o'clock
pm. The immediate members OF the
Maher and FitZsimmons parties are
provided with railroad tickets TO Lang
ley, Texas. and sleeping car berths 10
Del Rio, Texas, the second station east
Of Langley. The train on which the
pugilists left is due at Langley at 1:32
tomorrow afternoon.
At the depot tickets were sold 10
those who wanted to go TO the prize
fight, to the town of Langtry, 400 miles
away. The train Will not reach there
until after 4 o'clock tomorrtw and
there is no telling when the crowd will
get back. The fight will take place
probably about 2:30. There is only one
place between here and Lantry where
ii is possible for the fight to take place
anS as il is guarded it is probable that
no attempt will be made to stay there.
The prize fighting train consisted Of
six or seven coaches and three sleep
ers, the latter of which were crowded
and the former comfortably filled.
Soon after 10 p. m. Fitzsimmons
started for the train accompanied by
Martin Julian, Jack StelZner and Will
lam Mccoy, all of whom will probably
be in his corner. Ftzsimmons went to
a sleeping car which was lying on a
side track. A state room had been set
aside for his party. He remained at
the house of DIR. A. K. Albers until a
few moments before train time. Dur
ing the long wait for the train, the
rangers seated themselves in a row
along the station with their Winches-
tiers resting on their knees. II did not
seem that there We're more than 200
sports ready with the s55, or more re-
quired for a ticket and railway fare.
The newspaper correspondents formed
a considerable portion of the crowd.
The railway tickets read to Langtry,
Texas, and this verified the story that
the spectators would have to ride over
800 miles to see the fight. At Hos p. m.
the train started for the east.
Just before the train pulled out it
was discovered that every available
inch of space on the trucks was Occu-
pied by hodolums bent on beating their
way to the fight. Bat Masterson took
a survey OF the situation and remarked
that the impecuniOus sports would have
a long walk back to FL Paso. Mas
terson's plan was to get his men togeth-
er and clear the trucks when the train
reached twenty-five miles east of here.
Several clamored to the rofs of the
coaches.
Chicago, Feb. 2G.-James J. Corbett
sent two kilograms TO FL Paso tonight,
one to FitZSimmons and one to Maher,
asking the winner to meet Corbe1t in
Chicago any day between March l and
March 16 and arrange for a fight.
