sHARKEY AND JEFFRIEs.

NEW YORK, October 29.-Although only
five days intervene between now and the
date of the worlds championship prize
fight, betting on the result is singularly
light. Interest in the battle between Jim
Jeffries and Tom Sharkey for the cham
pionship of the world is keen enough, but
the supporters of both men seem 10th
to wager their money on the result
Jeffries' admirers sem to outnumber
Sharkey's. Just now Sharkey's hackers
want 10 to for their money, and some Of
them are looking for 10 to G.
Both men are in as good condition as it
Is POSSIBLE to get them for this fight If
ans ming has been neglected, it is too late
TO supply a remedy. Jeffries says he is
satisfied with his condition and he pro-
fesses to believe that the battle will be a
short one.
In the opinion of many good judges, it
will be well for him if it is short and
the shorter the better. The champion has
not worn any too well since winning his
laurels and although a bigger and heavier
man than Sharkey, he will not stand so
much rough work
Jeffries had not decided whether he
would do much work to-day sharkey did
none beyond taking a walk and a little
light exercise with the bag. The sailor
never works on Sunday. The training
quarters of both men were overrun by Wis
itors. so that neither could put in a good
days work if he desired to do so.
Jeffries viii remain at Allenhurst until
Thursday, when he will come to this city.
Sharkey will come to town on Thursday

FILIPINOS
Are Good Sprinters. Says Harry
Vankeuren, Who is Home from
the Philippines--His Views.

Harry Vankeuren, of st. Paul, ar
rived in the city yesterday, and is a
guest OF his brother, Charles E. Van
keuren, on Twelfth street. He was a
member of the Thirteenth Minnesota
Regiment, which was mustered in May
Z. 1898, reached Manila July 81 and re-
| turned to San Francisco September of
this year. The regiment took part in %
engagements during its service in the
Philippines, and about Is were killed
in battle, but the number dead from all
causes was 81
General Otis is unpopular with men
and officers he said last night. such
a man as General Lawton would ac-
complish much more speedy and salts
factory results if he were placed in
command of the American forces. The
principal trouble arose from the fact
that there were not enough soldiers to
garrison the towns we captured, and
some of them had to be retaken. The
t1llpinos are not good fighters, but
their knowledge of the country enables
them to carry on a guerilla warfare,
which | expect to last for at least five
years. The American troops suffered
from the climate and the heat and rain
and from insufficient food. Only three
privates in my company re-enlisted.
The others were very anxious to get
home"
Mr. Vankeuren was enabled to see
many points of interest during his SER
vice. He was particularly impressed,
as are all American soldiers, with
Honolulu. Manila he describes as a
very cosmopolitan city. The vessel
stopped at Japan, and he visited Ma
gasaki, Toxic and other cities, being
very favorably impressed with the en-
terprise Of the Japs.

The final arrangements for the inter-
city bowling contest between Wheeling
and Pittsburg have been almost com
pleted. The date has been settled, as
stated in these columns before, as No
vember for the Pittsburg series and

seems to be the drawback just now,
as Pittsburg don't seem any too anx-
ious to back her favorites with very
much collateral, but be the stakes what
they may, the Wheeling team will give
them a go anyhow.

RILLIAO MATCH

NEW YORK, October 29.-The big
Slossen-Shaeffer three nights billiard
match will open here tomorrow night
in Madison Square Garden concert hall.
Both the wizard and the student have
been hard at practice for over two
weeks and both have shown exceptional
form. Using Ora Morning Star for
trial horse, Shaeffer has been averaging
night after night better figures than
the worlds record at cushion caroms,
and in one game he went out with an
unfinished run of 116. The best match
run on record is SIS. Slosson, too, has
been showing splendid form against
Mclaughlin, with whom he has done
most of his practice and repeatedly
averaged above the record. while one or
two of his best runs have been very
close behind Ives record figures.
There have been many bets recorded
on the outcome of this match. and in al
most every case the odds have been
even money.

FITS VICTORY
Over Thorne Saturday Night Was Sharp
and decisive.


In his battle with Thorne in Chicago
Saturday night FitZsimmons was attended
by Martin Julian and Yank Kenney.
Thorne was seconded by Sam Fitzpatrick,
Patsey Haley and Joe Sullivan. Fitzsim-
mons looked fat, at least eight pounds
over what he would be if in first-class
condition.
The men agreed to fight Marquis of
Queensbury rules, breaking free.
First Round = Fitzsimmons feinting.
Thorne appears afraid and keeps away.
Fitzsimmons led with left and missed.
Fitzsimmons lands hard left on chest.
Ftzsimmons lands left on face. Fitz
feints with right and misses the right for
head. Fitz lands left on jaw, knocking him
down and out. Time of fight, minute.
Thorne fell fiat on his back his legs
drawn up spasmodically, and he rolled
slowly over on his hands and knees in a
vain attempt to regain his feet. The eff
fort was futile, however, and he fell fiat
on his face, utterly unconscious. Malachi
Hogan, the referee, bent close over him
with his mouth to Thorne-s ear, shouting
the seconds, but Thorne lay like a dead
man. After turning over on his face he
neither moved nor seemed to breathe, so
completely knocked out was he.
Thorne after being carried to his corner
was surrounded by group of his friends
who labored anxiously to bring him to.
He was drenched repeatedly with cold
water Fitzsimmons in the meanwhile
standing by, anXiously doing what he
could for the vanquished man. Thorne
was held in his chair by Sam Fitzpatrick
and Joe Sullivan, and although able to
move slightly, was as dead to the world
as when he lay on the mat. He was in his
corner twelve minutes and was then car
ried from the ring by his seconds. unable
to walk, but having regained a small meas
ure of intelligence. AS he was carried
through the ropes he rolled and sped wear
lily toward Sam Fitzpatrick and said 1t
was a chance blow. The right side of his
jaw, where Fitzsimmons struck him, was
badly swollen. Fitzsimmons fought with
all his old-time fire and was as spry and
shifty on his feet as he had ever been.
His feinting was extremely rapid and his
blows shot in so fast that Thorne never
had a chance to evade more than one.
Thorne was beaten at the start.

1T IS CONCEDED THE TABLEWARE
COMBINE WILL BE FINALLY RE-
ALLIED = REPRESENTATIVE
CONFERRING WITH LOCAL PAR
TIES SATURDAY-TUESDAY THE
DATE SET FOR FINANCING THE
CONCERN.

1t is understood upon good authority
that there is a deal on between Cleve-
land capitalists and the Bellaire owners

that is negotiating for the works is the
Cleveland Rolling Mill Company, which

erington, and is one of the most desira-
BILE of his extensive holdings in that
quarter. The mine does both a river
and railroad business and is at present
running twenty-five cars a day. The
firm which is said to be the prospective
purchaser has been taking the major
portion Of the product of the works
and at present has a contract for TWEEN
ty cars daily. On Saturday a represen-
tatiye of the Cleveland Rolling Mill
Company was in Belfaire, and it was
learned that the deal is in a fair way
to be closed UP this week. Besides the
valuable provisions for mining coal,
there is an untouched field of some
three hundred acres of strata that will
be included in the sale. No figures
were obtainable, but the price will run
well up into five figures.

There appears to be less doubt now
than at any time since the tableware
movement began that the National
Glass Company will be d go. The
trade journals that have heretofore
been skeptical as to the practicability of
the scheme, are ready to concede the
likelihood of its consummation. On
Saturday representative of the Ma
tional was in Wheeling and held con-
ferences with owners Of plants over the
river. A we'll informed gentleman, in
speaking with the Register, said it is
only a question of few weeks until
both the Crystal and West Virginia
will pass from local control. The Ma
tional Glass Budget in speaking on the
subject, says:
For weeks past the board of direc-
tors of the National Glass Company
have been holding almost daily con-
ferences in the Stevenson building, this
city, and it is now stated that the de-
tails will be completed by Tuesday
next. It is said that the National Glass
Company and the United States Glass
Company will work in harmony to sus-
tain prices"
