WHAT DAN STUART SAYS.
Thinks Fitzsimmons Is Anxious to
Meet Sailor Tom Sharkey.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark, Jan. 27.-''Do
think Fitz is anxious to fight Shar-
key" said Dan Stuart in the Southern
club today. Yes, I not only think so,
but 1 think he is perfectly confident of
beating him. On the day when Fitz-
simmons defeated Corbett at Carson
City he came to nay Office there and sat
down for a talk. He put his feet on
the railing and said: Well. Stuart
came to this country after the middle
weight championship. Today I'm mid
dleweight champion and heavyweight
champion. I'm done fighting now
Won't you fight any more?" I ask
ed There's that fellow Sharkey; he's
doing a good deal Of talking"
" 'Sharkeyr exclaimed Fitz. Well
there's one I would fight at any time
and place. 1 give you my word, I'd
be glad TO fight him tomorrow in the
ring I fought in today. He would be
easy for me; easier than Corbett."
DO you think Sharkey and Fitz will
get together?'
! do not O'Rourke will not let
Sharley fight any one as long as he
can make any money out of his cham
pionship aspirations. He won't let
him fight Fitz because he knows Fftz
would be likely to whip him. In my
opinion the next big fight will be be-
tween Fitz and Jeffries. There are
some inside deals that indicate that
What do you think the result will
be?'
Well don't want to discourage any
man who aspires to be champion but
to me it is certain that Jeffries wouldn t
have even a chance with Fitz Of
course he has a decision over Sharkey,
but that does not count for much more
than an advertisement There are
some people who pose as managers of
puSilists who are satisfied with any
record that classes as we'll as a theatri-
cal advertisement. That's where JEFF
fries is getting his BOOM
What do you think of Corbett's eff
fort to get another fight with Fitz?"
I hardly think he will succeed. but
there is one thing certain. Corbett isn't
as dead as most people think. He
may have dissipated much and gone
back good deal, but his fight with
Sharkey can't be considered as show
ing his real ability. That fight was no
line on COrbett at all To me it looked
as though COrbett in the sixth round
cut himself loose just to show some
people who were on to the job what he
could do if he tried. It is nv opinion
that If Corbett gets into the ring again
ne IS likely to show wonderful improve
ment, He's likely to whip somebody
yet"
