the Event.
New York, November 17.--There appears
to be every reason for supposing that the
Mccoy Creedon match will be pulled off In
the East. This Will not occur at any OF
tho clubs so far named in that connection,
but in the arena of new establishment.
There is a great deal OF secrecy regarding
this new club, and all that can be leanred
regarding it comes in bits of information
from several usually reliable sources OF in
formation. The clubhouse is to be con-
structed on the broad acres of one OF the
largest Stockholders IN the Long Island
railroad.
The owner OF the land is lover of
sports, particularly those OF the fistic kind.
He contributes the land, and Frank Steven
son, the old-time sport, and others have
subscribed sufficient 10 erect the clubhouse.
There seems to be every confidence in the
ability OF those behind the scheme to pull
off the biggest kind of matches, and one of
the stories is that bid win be made for a
meeting between Fiizsimmons and Corbett.
The land owner referred TO, 1t Is claimed,
was one of the mort substantial financial
hackers Governor Black had when a can
didate for governor.
