WANT ANOTHER FIGHT.
COrcoran's Backers willing to Give
Ohda for Ono.

Corcoran's hackers are very sore on the
result of the prize fight Friday night ana
are wild to get even. They are saying an
sorts Of things about the deal that was
given them, and declare that Corcoran can
whip Mccullough any time IN fair fight.
Mccullough, they admit, has more science
than their man, but they say he is not
the fighter than Corcorau is, and all they
want Is a chance to prove it.
As evidence of their earnestness they
have posted an offer of $1,000 10 $50 for
twenty-five round fight between Corcoran
and Mccullough. They want finish fight
and are willing that it should take place
anywhere in Chatham county or across
inc river in South Carolina, IL there should
be any objections "a sed 10 genuine

the middleweight class, While Mccullough
IS strictly a light weight. A night with
a decided difference in weight would be
distinctly unfair. l only agreed to this

ED. 5. ELLIOTT FOR JUDGE.
His Friends Want Him to Preside on
the City Court Bench.

Some of the Savannah bar seem to
think the CONTEST for the judgeship OF
the City Court would not be sufficiently
lively if il were confined to two candi-
dates. They want more TO make the race,
and it is quite probable that they will be
obliged in tlslt respect.
Hon. T. NJ. Norwood, the present incum-
bent, and Mr.. 4. Mayhem Cunningham
have been AIMED for the place Yester-
day well nown and prominent lawyer
said that he had been among several of
his legal frie nds and discovered that Mr.
Edward s. Elliott would be their choice
for the position The lawyer said he be-
beves Mr.. Elliott would make a strong
race, and that pressure win be brought
20 bear by IS friends to induce him to
allow his name used.
Mr.. Elliott Is recognized among the
members of the Savannah bar as an ex-
ceptonally iDse student of the law His
grasp on it is strong, and 1t is said there
are but few questions upon which he can
not give an pswer that Investigation will
discover to tie correct. The abilities of
the other gentlemen named are recog-
nized and If the three should make il a
fight, the finish would doubtless be a
pretty one.
