Corbett's plan TO get Fitzsimmons to
give him another match Is not approved
of by the sporting men of the country, and
he is making more enemies than friends
While Corbett's actions will not hurt
titzsimmons' earning capacity, it is not
fair play No one chased Corbett about
the country when he defeated sullivan
and Mitchell. II il came TO "A show down
now. il would be found that FitZsimmons
has more friends among those who follow
the sport.
The talk about bringing the two to-
gether for "a limited round bout at New
York Is ridiculous, as the managers of
clubs in that state will not allow their
graft TO be killed by such "a meeting
amp they have the pull to prevent Cor
bett and FitZsimmons meeting there
lt is hard to tell what Fits intentions
arc about fighting again. He announces
that he has retired while his brother-in .
law and manager, who L. supposed to
know something about his Intentions
declare he Is liable to fool Corbett some
morning by accepting his challenge.
Eitz either Is being badly advised or
else he is In need Of an adviser. He has
been making wrong plan since he won
at Carson, and IL he had shrewd man:
ager nc would nave made many more
dollars than he has received. He never
should have announced his retirement
until ne gathered in all the money that
comes 20 a champion. Retired cham
piOns are not So much an attraction as
the men in the game.

RUSIE'S CASE SETTLED.
His Salary viii B. Made Up BY The Clubs
In the L ague.

IL was stated on good authority at Phil
adelphia last night that the celebrated
ease of Pitcher Russie VIZ. the New York
Club will be brought TO final settlement
IN New York today at "a special mecting OF
league magnutes. The meeting was ar
ranged ON account of the National Board
conference, which is also scheduled for
today in New York.
The special meeting however, has been
Kept profound secrst and the first in
tlnatlon OF 10 came when IL was learned
that j. Earl Wagner's proxy would be
held by President Sodcn of Boston, Presi-
dent Jim Hart OF the Chicago Club viii
hold the proxies OF those magnatos in the
western circuit of the league who Will
find 10 impossible Co attend.
j. Earl Wagner said that the conference
would result in "a peace treaty between
husie and freedman, and that Rusie
would pitch in ono of tho games OF the
initial series at tho Polo Grounds this
month.
The conference OF the magnates IS
the outcome Of a suggestion made nc the
annual meeting In February, % the effect
that the eleven clubs barring New York,
as an arbitrator, should send a special
emissnly to Eusie with the proposition
that he sign contract with the New
York Club, and accept his salary for last
season which was 70 be paid him by the
eleven clubs, barring of course, New
York
Mossrs Soden, Robson and Byrnc re
considered this suggestion, and the up
shot came Ia the shape of Che secret con
fab nc indianapolis two weoks ago which
some of the base bah writer's mistook for
u dead TO shift the Cleveland franchise TO
the HoOsier capital Little did the writer's
know that peace treaty between Freed
man and Rusie was being arranged
j. Earl Wagner the Washington mag
nate said: Jim Hart and Frank DE
Haas Robson Were instrumental in draw
ing up this Rusie compromise at Indiana
polls. The meeting was of course, sub
rosa. The Monday conference in New
York Will return Rusie To the game, SO
we have reason to believe.
This meeting will, of course, be of
more importance To the public than the
routine work of the board, though | sus.
pect the New York newspapers will be
surprised to hear of il. Mr.. Soden of
Boston will hold my proxy.
''Of course | am in favor of COM
promise that will be made mt the meeting,
and am sure that Mr.. Freedman will see
1t in the same light as the rest of us.
Rusie will surely pitch in one of the OPEN
ing games against the Senators at the
Polo Grounds. He has anticipated the
and has got himself in shape
for the season by practicing with the In
dianapolis team.
Tho pecuniary advantages, 10 say |
nothing OF the desire of the public, which |
demands Rusio's return 10 the game |
prompted the action that will bc brought |
