KID MCCOY AND MARVIN
HART MATCHED FOR GO
Bout Will Be Pulled Off in Buffalo Next
Month Before International
Athletic Club.

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.-"Kid" Mccoy
will have an opportunity to show wheth-
er he has gone back or not next month
when he meets Marvin Hart, the Louis
VILE boxer, at Buffalo. The bout is
scheduled to take place on November 10,
before the International Athletic Club,
where Cans defeated Mcfarland last
Monday night. In Hart, Mccoy will
meet pretty tough proposition. He
is by no means in Bob Fitzsimmons'
class, whom Mccoy is anxious to meet,
but one who is dangerous at any stage
OF the game.
This will be McCoys first chance to
show his ability for long time, and if
the Hoosier beats Hart he will have TO
do some tall side-stepping to get out Of
the way of the beating which Hart Is
liable to hand out to him.
Mccoy is making book at Norris Park.
but nevertheless he is doing consider
able training at gymnasium.
Mccoy strips big, and will never be
able to do less than 165 pounds again
and be strong. For the first time in his
career the kid" is working hard on his
stomach, and by dieting and hard work
is laboring to get his middle works into
condition TO withstand a battering. Any
shots that have struck Mccoy amidship
heretofore have hurt him badly, and he
keenly realizes. the necessity of barri-
cading his solar plexus with muscles.

STARTER FITZGERALD
WILL BE REAPPOINTED
The Veteran Will Again Handle the
Flag at the New Orleans Winter
Running Meeting.

NEW YORK. Oct. 19.-The much dis
cussed question as TO who Will act in
the capacity of starter of the winter
meeting of the Crescent City Jockey
Club Is settled.
Christopher j. Fitzgerald, who has
acted at the meeting. for several years,
will resume his duties In the starters
stand with the beginning of the meeting
at New Orleans on Thanksgiving Day.
1t was not believed that Mr.. Fitzger-
again. even after he had shaken off to a
certain extent the effects of typhoid
fever, which caused him to relinquish his
post during the Saratoga meeting, and
there was much speculation as to who
would fill the place.
The officials themselves we're at sea
after trying in vain to make arrange
ments with either Jake Hoffman or Dick
Dwyer, both OF whom are under en-
gagement to the new California Jockey
Club for the winter season.
Fitzgerald settled the matter for them
by announcing yesterday that he would
be ready for his old position by the time
the meeting opened. The announcement
also created much astonishment among
friends. as they had no idea
that his recovery had reached the stage
which made II possible for him to def
nitely arrive at such conclusion.
Fitzgerald's recovery has, however.
been rapid in the last few weeks.

laying solid foundation upon which
later to build most destructive ma
chine system of attack.
This plan may win for her the Har-
ward game.
Harvard's team is being developed
more rapidly and while the line material
is heavy it is green and probably is not
receiving the trying out" that the line
men at Yale are getting. The back field
in individual ability is better than that
of Yale.
Both Pennsylvania and Princeton seem
to be having considerable trouble in the
make up of the line. AT Princeton the
difficulty seems to be in making choice
from SO many big men.
At Penn the difficulty is to find men
big enough to fill line positions. The
ends and back field positions at Prince
ton are filled and well filled. Pennsyl-
vania's end men will probably be as
good as any in the country. The back
field is very uncertain.
There has been very little difficulty In
selecting men for! the various positions
on the Cornell team. Nearly all of the
last years team is back. The new men
are being developed for substitutes.
Many wonder that tie team has not
made a better record even than it has.
Cornell's total scores are zoos, the
highest total score made by any team
yet this year.

Boston Run Too Easy for
Patrons of Sport.
cHAUFFEURS WANT A TEST

1,4oo Miles.
cHAuFFEURs WANT A TEST

NEW YORK, Oct 19.-Montreal may
be the turning point in the 1903 reliabili
ty run of the Automobile Club of Amer
lea.
1t is considered by many that the trip
to Boston was not long enough to supply
a task which demonstrated the srue
worth of the automobile in it's present
state of perfection. The excellent high
way further lessened the strain on the
machines. which, with few exceptions.
accomplished the 500-mile journey in a
manner calling for the greatest praise.
The run to the Canadian city would
supply a more severe effort, the dis
tance there and back totaling about
1,40O miles, with the roads of a kind
that would try very thoroughly the dur
ability of the vehicles.
The route followed would parallel the
Hudson River to Troy, swerve to Sara
toga and go north through Fort Edward
and Whitehall and then continue along
the western shores of Lake Champlain
to the Canadian border.
Chairman w. E. Scarritt, of the con-
test committee, yesterday said:
"a journey to Montreal would not be
too much of task in view of the ex-
cellent record made by the machines on
the Boston trip. True, it would be
harder trial. but the automobile must
prove it's stanchness in order to attain
the popularity which undoubtedly is in
Store for II in the future
1.-The rules for another contest should
be far more stringent, and the recent
event has given us much experience
that will be utilized on another occa-
sion. The daily mileage would be in
creased, and the English plan of chang
ing the observers has its good points.
In 1904 there should be a run to the st.
Louis Exposition. and the regulations
for such an event would call for con-
siderable study"
While it is .unofficially known that
several machines in the Boston contest
did not estimate their time correctly.

Judge Phillips the jumper, has quite

horse was used for saddle purposes in

One day the horse threw Mr.. Lemp, and
the latter in disgust sold him to his
present owner, G. Schwarz. for 5000. But
the horse remained very vicious, and
when Harry Graham got him this sum-
mer he was a bitter and kicker OF the
most pronounced type. But under
Trainer Graham's handling Phillips has
become a peaceable leyel-headed horse,
comparatively docile and quiet. He GER
tainly has proved bargain for his pres

Panama. Colombia, Aug, 23-The com
plicatiOns caused by the refusal of the
Pacific Steam Navigation Company of
Liverpool to transport troops from Buena
Ventura to the isthmus on board the
steamer Ecuador are not yet ended.
General Salazar, Governor of Panama,
has received a communication from the
acting British consul here, Mr.. Hudson
saying that his majesty's government
had instructed him to ask what pro-
lection Colombia could give British YES
sells against destruction by insurgent
forces in the event of their transporting
troops Of the Colombian Government.
TO this communication General Salazar
replied that the Pacific Steam Navigation
Company was Obliged to transport gov
ernment troops by the terms of con-
tract made in 1879 between the company
and the national government; that this
contract should be fulfilled by the COM
panv without the necessity of the gov
eyufent giving previous guarantee of pro-
lection, and that the insurgents could not
opuose the transportation of Colombian
troops in a British vessel because any
irtfmation of violence or act of violence
ON their part would expose them to be
treated as pirates, insomuch as they have
NOT been recognized as belliSerents.
Gcreral salazar said further that in the
event of an iusurgent attack upon a
British vessel carrying government
+roons the government might be ready
