the rumor that "Old Man. Anson will
sever his connection with the Colts
when his contract expires this week
He also intinates that Burns will be
signed to take the grand old man s
place.
Tim Hurst is not the only y baseball
umpire who has gained II reputation as II
fight referee. He has Il rival in this
capacity in Umpire Mcdonald, who
refereed the Choynski-Jeffrics fight in
Frisco recently.
Tommy Tucker, who played with
Washington last season, will probably be
relegated to some minor league. The
Kansas City team, of the Western
League. is after him, as is also Arthur
Irwin, of the Toronto Club He has not
yet decided what offer to accept, but his
friends would rather see him with Irwin
than on the Western League.
There is little danger of the Phillies
running short of players. At the pres
ent time Manager Hallings has thirty
three players to select next years team
from.
Buck Ewing is one of the advocates OF
the movement to reduce the pitching
distance three feet. In the opinion of

Mccoy is enjoying the fruits of combi-
nation OF accidents. Mccoy claims the
middle-weight championship as the re-
suit OF his fight with me ut catch

the limit, and know Mccoy was more
than II pounds outside the middle
weight notch. Besides that, was sick
during my training, sick during the
fight, and am still und,r the weather.
In my condition Mccoy should have
beaten me in the sixth round, but on
my word, he can't punish at all. |

hansted me. can defeat Mccoy at anv

as Il catch-wcight he is II mongrel. If
ne wants to win the niddle-weight
championship ! will fight him for it, but
it means l5S pounds.
Fltzsimmons won't fight Corbctt; Cor
bett wont fight Maher; Mahcr and
Sharkey can't agree on terms OF battle
so there is no iight in sight between
these men. Fi,zsimmons won't fight
Mccoy; Mccoy won't fight Corbett,
Maher or Slarkey, and is haggling over
weight with Choynski, although he pro-
lesscs to be anxious to fight Fitz, who is
the heavyweight champion. This state
Of affairs, coupled with the fact that
most Of the pugiliss mentioned are all
picking up easy livings travelling over
the country with theatrical troupes, while
they talk fight, lis creating the impression
that none Of them really want to fight.
fltzslmmons says as much. lIe has
worked his way to the top, and until he
is really forced to do battle he will take
things easy.
Thomas Sharkey has issued chal-
lcngc to Robert Filz.immons, in which
he demands that Fizsimmons give him
the first chance ON his re-enterng the
ring. Sharkcy claims that he won the
Fitzsimmons-Sharkcy tiasco fairly and
that jim Corbett had the assistance of
the police when he had Corbctt beaten
in their fight at San Francisco
Mccoy did not see the Fitzsmmons-
Corhctt fight. ii he had he certainly
would not say that Corbctt held Fitz
cheap No fighter ever took more pre-
caution to keep out OF harms way than
did Corbett on that occasion. This is
why the fight lasted fourteen rounds.

than Nichols. His twirIing days art

season in good shapr. Manager Selee
says that the announcement that he has

klobedanz and Bergen are the only
members Of the Boston team that have
already signed contracts for next year.

The condition of the Polo Grounds in
New York vii! be greatly improved for
next season. A drainage system has
been put in to carry away the water, and
loads of dirt have been distributed all
over the field. 1t is President Freed
mans desire to have Il smooth field, and
if he succeeds, as he probably will, the
cranks will have no kick coll ny.
Uncle Nick Young is having his own
troubles these days in getting up next
seasons schedule. \ two-trip schedule
would be comparatively easy, but the
fonr-trlp one is causing Nick much
trouble. Requests for such and such a

clubs, do not make the schcdule-makcr'~
life a very happy one about this time.
Manager Watkins, of the Pittsblrg
Club, has about twenty-five men on the

carry about fifteen players. The other
