F1Tzs1MMoNs AND MCCOY.
A Match, to Take Place I'm septem-
ber, Practically Arranged.

New York, July 5.-A meeting between
kid" Mccoy and Bob Fitzsimmons has
been practically arranged, and according
to the present plans, the men are to fight
: before one of the local clubs some time in
the latter part of September. Mccoy, who
is now in Denver, has called off all his
other matches and says he will not do
any fighting until he is through with the
middle-weight champion. Mccoy further
says he will visit New York within the
next three weeks ready to sign articles.
The fact that Fitzsimmons has announced
that If the fight comes off the winner
must take all is agreeable to Mccoy, who
declares that he will agree to box straight
Queensbury rules, with the exception that
the man must break clean at the order
of the referee. 1t is not very likely that
Fitzsimmons will consent 10 this, as he
Intends to hold out for a fight under the
rules without any stipulations. The Coney
Island Sporting Club, the Westchester
Athletic Club, and the Lenox Athletic Club
will bid for the bout. 1t was said today
that as Fitzsimmons is somewhat inter
ested in the arena by the sea the battle
will probably take place there. 1t was al
so reported the Coney Island people are
ready TO offer a purse of $1,000. Fitz-
simmons said today: II am rapidly getting
into shape, and expect TO be in good trim
by September Mccoy has been for some
time anxious to fight me, and l am ready
now. / will fight him at 15S pounds, just

READY FOR THE YACHT RACE
A Special Meeting Between the CO.
Iumbia and the Defender.

New York July with the brilliant
Larchmont regatta over yachtsman began
to turn their attention today to the spe-
cial race between the Defender and the
Columbia. This race, which is to be sailed
over one of the outside Sandy Hook
courses, will be the first real meeting be-
tween the new and the old cup defenders,
the trial off Newport and the run from
that port to New London having been in
formal in their nature and not calculated
to bring out the best sailing qualities OF
the two ninety -footers. Tomorrow, how
ever, the yachts will be racing in earnest
for valuable cup. Yachtsmen attach uI-
usual significance to the match. They feel
that the real merits of the two boats will
be disclosed, and that barring accidents
in the future, the race will virtually settle
whether the Columbia or the Defender
shall defend the Americas Cup against
Sir Thomas Lipton's challenging Sham
rock.
While, however, the public Will know
which yacht crosses tie finish line lrst,
no one, with the exception of Mr.. c. Oliver
1selin, the managing owner OF the Column
bia, and Mr. w. Butler Duncan, jr.. the
manager of the Defender, will be able to
tell which boat actually won the race
should the finish be close. For reasons
well understood in the yachting world,
those who have in charge the defence of
the Americas Cup have decided not TO
reveal the official measurements of the
two boats until after the trial races.
Therefore the question OF time allowance
is in the dark. Experts who have watched
the TeI formances of TIE Two yachts thus
far and who have studied their dimen
sions and sail areas at close range agree,
however, that the Columbia will not have
to allow the Defender more than two min
utes. Possibly the handicap may not be
more than one and one-half minutes. If
the Columbia defeats the Defender by more
than two minutes tomorrow it is reason
ably safe to say that she wins the race.
If, on the other hand. the finish is very
close-two minutes OF less separating the
two boats-the issue will be in doubt un-
til the official time allowance is announced
later in the season.

A MUcH-wANTED swINDLER.
Several States After j. II. Greene, in
Jail Mt Harrisburg. Pm

Harrisburg, Pa, July 5.-John r. Greene,
an alleged bunco steerer, was put in Jail
here ten days ago, and ever since then
detectives have been fighting for him A
sheriff and his deputy reached here yester-
day from Walla Walla, where Greene is
wanted for swindling farmer out of s., coo.
About the same time a Chicago detective
turned up with requisition for the pris-
oner, who is wanted in Illinois for swind-
ling farmers. Detectives are now on their
way from Illinois and Iowa for Greene. and
this morning Detective Shelter, of West
moreland county, turned up with a war
rant for him. Shelter says the prisoner
swindled William Barnhart. a Westmore-
land county farmer. out of $1,000 in 1887.
and the prisoner calmly admits that this
is fact.
Greene has money, and he employed one
of the best lawyers at the Dauphin county
bar. Greene is sixty-four years old, and he
says he expects to spend the remainder OF
his life in prison, beginning at Greenes-
burg Governor Stone heard the counsel
for the several detectives today. and then
turned Greene over to the Greenesburg au-
thorities, which was satisfactory TO De-

MANAGER DAY RESIGNS.
Pigeon shooter Hoey Now in Charge
O. the Giants

New York. July 5.-Although he said
before the season opened that he did not
care whether the New Yorks were success
full OF not and that he would kill baseball
in order to square accounts with several
League men who did not agree with him,
Freedman is having his troubles these
days With a team that does not class
with the leaders in playing ability and
which has been crippled by accidents and
the absence of Amos Rusie Manager John
r. Day has succeeded in keeping the New
Yorks close TO the top of the second di-
vision. When Mr.. Day was made man
ager Freedman announced that he would
have absolute control. Mr.. Day had any
thing but absolute control" and was SO
pestered by the clubs president that he
was on the point OF resigning some time
ago.
The climax came today when Freedman,
smarting under the two defeats administer
ed by the Washingtons on Tuesday. sum
moned Mr.. Day TO his office and ordered
him to make the New Yorks do better
Mr.. Day tried TO reason with him. but il
was no use, and there was nothing left
, him but 10 resign, which he did gracefully
Freedman then appointed Fred Hoey, the
pigeon shot, manager of the New Yorks
with orders to take charge at once. Hoey

NOT HELPING DREYFUs.
Local Jewish People Say He Has Re
nOunced the Old Faith.

nOunced the Old Faith.
The report that the Jewish people of
Washington are making an organized EFFORT
to in some way render assistance to Captain
Dreyfus is emphatically denied by the most
prominent men OF that race in this city. In
fact it is said that no such proposition
was suggested, and if it had been, it would
not have been entertained for a moment
One man said the common belief that
because Captain Dreyfus is a Hebrew, he
is, of course, of the Jewish faith, is en-
tirely erroneous. AS matter of fact, Cap
tain Dreyfus has renounced Judaism and
has accepted the Protestant Christianity.
Several independent efforts to aid the
unfortunate captain have, however, been
made in various sections of this country.
In Atlanta the adherents of the Jewish
religion are now engaged in raising funds
with which to purchase magnificent
sword to be presented to Dreyfus. In
Richmond several meetings have been
held and plans submitted to aid the for
mGr prisoner of Devils Island. 1t has
been suggested that Dreyfus be invited to
| live in this country and that home be
presented him. This plan has already
been inaugurated, but with what success

YEAGER is NOW IN JAIL.
He Is Unable to Furnish $1,000
mil Bond.


RaiI Bond.
Lewis ]. Yeager, the attorney who es-
capped from the Sixth precinct station early
Tuesday morning, and who was subse-
quently recaptured, was arraigned in the
Police Court yesterday morning to answer
the charge of assaulting Edith Schnebel.
I Yeager pleaded not guilty. Attorney
Truitt, who represented him, then stated
that his client would waive a preliminary
examination, and would give bond for his
release. He asked that the bond be fixed
at $1,000. the amount OF the original bail
He said that Yeager could furnish that
sum. but would be unable to secure a
larger amount, and in the latter event
would have to remain in jail until October.
as he could not be tried before that time.
Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Laskey
opposed the request, and asked that bail
be fixed in the sum of $1,000. Yaeger ad-
dressed the court in his own behalf, re-
peating the statement of his counsel He
added that he was aware that he was rest
ing under a serious charge, but stated
that he was innocent of It. Attorney
Truitt stated to the court that had his
client not escaped from the custody of the
police no one would have thought OF ask
ing for an increase in the ball. He con-
tended that bail in the sum of 81, 900 was
sufficient
Judge Scott decided to grant the re-
quest of Mr.. Laskey, and held the prison.
er in $1,000 bail. Yeager was unable to
give bail. and was again locked up.
The action of the court in increasing
the bail was severely criticised by many
persons, and by lawyers. 1t was claimed
that the charge on which Yeager was ar
raigned was not so serious as the charge
of arilf uN tn
against Attorney Edward G. Niles several
days ago for shooting at his wife. Niles
was released on $500 bond. 1t was argued
that in view of the action of the court in
the Niles case the original bond of $1,000
required for the release of Yeager was
certainly sufficient, and that the increasing
Of the bond was entirely unnecessary.

Took Stitches In His Henrt.

Binghamton. July 5.-Surgeons of this
city have performed an unusual operation,
which may yet prove successful. Louis
Ginsberg. a Jewish rabbi, was stabbed
yesterday by negro, who plunged knife
through the heart. The raobis wite
rushed to his side imploring him not TO
die. He made a supreme effort to rally.
and a physician who was called injected
saline solution TO replace the blood until
an ante mortem statement could be taken.
When this was concluded and the man
still lived the ribs were parted and the
heart was exposed. Between pulsation
with lightning rapidity needle and
thread we're passed through the left ven
tricle, several stitches being taken. The
wound was then dressed and the man ral-
lied. This morning he was slightly worse,
but hope was entertained of his recovery.

cut in and the oars clashed. A foul was
claimed and allowed. At the time the foul
was made the Pennsylvanians had a lead
