DAN STUART INTERVIEWED.
Was Here Last Night En- Route to
Nevada.
Said the Public Would Know To-Day
Where the Big Battle
Will Be.

A San Francisco paper last evening
printed a big portrait of Dan Stuart,
the prize-fight manager and accompa-
MED it with the following comments:
Dan Stuart is a managerial sphinx.
Others may talk, but he don't. He was
in Arizona when last heard from
Dan Stuart read the above and
smiled as he STEPPED off a San Fran
cisco street car yesterday afternoon
and walked aboard the ferryboat.
He had been in that city nearly all
day talking with railroad and other
people about his plans for the big
fight, and at 6 o'clock he boarded the
overland train for Reno and Carson.
He was seen at the depot in this city
by a Record Union" reporter. who
| asked him if he was yet able to say
just where the C0rbett- tt-Fitzsimmons
fight will take place.
NO replied Mr.. Stuart, Il cannot
tell till after I reach Nevada, but I
expect to know tomorrow, and then
there will be no further public sus-
pense on that point. | shall also have
an answer within twelve hours from
the railroad people as to what their
rates will be for excursion trains TO the
| fighting ground.
Il can say now however, that from
the assurances given me to-day by the
railroad officials in San Francisco the
rates will be fair and satisfactory to
| all who really want to witness the
great battle
Have you made any arrangements
toward bringing Maher and Sharkey
! together a your Nevada carnival?"
| he was asked
mo, / have not" said Mr.. Stuart.
| There has been some talk of it, and
would like well enough to do so if it
can be satisfactorily arranged Do
you think they would make a good
drawing card?"
| The reporter thought they would, and
asked Mr.. Stuart if he would give
more than $4,000 or So 900 for the
fight
! "Oh, yes" he replied slowly, II would
do better than that by them, but
want it understood that Dan Lynch,
! Sharkey's manager, cannot dictate
any fancy terms to me. There are
others-and plenty of them. For in
stnace, Walcott and Lavigne, they'd
| be a fine pair and would give a royal
/ battle. Then there is Dixon and
Erne. A battle between either of
these pairs would be great.
I'm sorry I have not time to stop
longer in Sacramento just now. I
had intended to come straight through
/ from Lathrop this morning, but
changed my mind and went to San
Francisco to consult with friends there
and the railroad people.
Il was in Sacramento last Notem-
| Der, however, for a day or two, and
stopped at the Golden Eagle I had
this affair in view even then and I
took your town in pretty well. 1 think
| Sacramento viii send a good big del
| egation to see the battle
Mr.. Stuart then excused himself to
see If he could get a telegram to Cor
bett, who was then between Reno and
| Truckee, on the train coming this
way. COrbett, his wife and brother
Harry will pass through here on this
mornings overland train.
Dan Stuart is a portly, dressed
pleasant man, and looks and talks
more ike a Well-tO-do banker or cap
italist than a promoter of sporting
events.

THE PROPOSED PARK.
Consultation Held Last Night-The
Plan to be Pushed.

A consultation by friends Of the
scheme was held last evening at the
Golden Eagle Hotel in the matter of
the proposed Athletic Park c. A.
Thurston of San Francisco, represent
ing the railroad company, expressed
the opinion that if an $4,000 park
property is established, excursion
rates could be secured ON the occa-
sion of attractions offered.
1t was suggested that business men
of Sacramento could aid the effort be-
ing made to promote such excursion
by advertising special inducements in
the surrounding country. Those pres
ent expressed confidence that business
men will be benefited by the establish
ment of such a park. Mr.. Winans was
requested to present in writing the
views of the meeting to business men
Of the city and solicit their support. a
report Of which should be made to G.
p. Goodman of San Francisco, who will
state what rates can be had for ex-
cursions. II is then proposed to call
upon Sacramento to raise the balance
of the $4,000 necessary to complete
the park. This plan met the views
and had the Endorsement of those
present at the consultation
