NEW YORK. Aug. 3--Jim Corbett be-
gan training in real earnest yesterday at
Bath Beach for his coming fight with Kid
Mccoy, which takes place at Madison
Square Garden on August so, Corbett said
yesterday that he will be in as good con-
and claims that he has been taking the
best of care of himself since he fought the
champion and has been training at Woods
gymnasium for two weeks.
Charley Golf, the California middle
weight, who is at present training Gus
Rubin for his fight with Fitzsimmons, has
been secured by Corbett to be his boxing
partner in his preparation for the coming
battle. Corbett boxed with Golf few
days ago. who showed such remarkable
cleYerness that Corbett Immediately en-
gagged him.
Tom Sharkey. who is slated to fight
Fitzsimmons on August %, also began
training for his battle yesterday al his
home at Sheepshead Bay. ShaTkey feels
just as confident of beating Fitzsimmons
as he did Rubin, and further states that
he viii win in less than fifteen rounds
Now that al the crack heavyweights
have been matched with the exception of
Jeffries, Jack Dougherty, who has just as
sumed the management of Joe Wolcott,
has posted 81 900 for match with the
BLACK Demon and the champion The
money is il the hands of Al Smith Should
Jeffries decline Dougherty says he will
match WOlcott to meet any of the lesser
lights in the heavy weight division

and have not won many friends for while
they have speed, even though it is below
the contract requirements, they are not
perfect success as to mechanical manip-
ulation; besides. their quarters are cramp-
ed and inconvenient- A particularly OBJ
jectionable feature for torpedo work is
that the engines are so built that in re-
yersing they work upder high pressure
alone, causing delay in execution of hur-
ried order to change direction
In appearance, too, their square deck
house gives them the look of belonging to
some other than the American fleet.
The two boats here have been in commits
sion several weeks and upon the accep-
lance of the report of the board Will be-
come a part Of the Navy. The lack of
speed was adjusted at the time OF their
