there is no possible obstacle in the way
of the big fight being pulled off to.
morrow, There was heavy snow storm
in the mountains all day, and the clouds
hang heavy over the valley. No post
ponsment will be made, however, unless
the weather should be unusually severe
tomorrow. Betting which was carried on
until long after midnight was steadily in
favor Of Corbett, the odds being six and
oue.half to ten, Fitz being the short end.
BY curious freak in mutuals, the COM
bination Fitz, Smith and Flaherty, is
selling five TO one, and the combination
Corbett, Smith and Flaherty, six to one,
The three California men continue favor
ties, however, the combination Corbett,
Green and Hawkins, being two to one.
Both Corbett and Fitz are in a condition
to make the fight of their lives.
At IL O'Clock snow began to fall. The
fight will take place tomorrow, however,
certainly, If the weather conditions are at
all tolerable.
