Young Corbett's Talk.

Cincinnati, Aug. 30.-Champion Young
Corbett has made threat that he will
declare the fight with Terry McGovern
off if the talk of the coming contest be-
ing prearranged is not stopped. Il
don't see where these knockers get
their information" said Young Corbett.
I'm getting tired of reading these sto
ries about laying down to McGovern.
That the contest did not take place in
the east is not my fault, and it is just
these people who killed the game in that
part of the country" Cerbett did a lit
tie indoor work for the first time since
his camp was pitched on Prince hill
last Saturday. 1t consisted of bag
punching, tackling the dummy and
working the rowing machine. Corbett
wanted to put on the gloves. but could
not find any. Trainer Tuthill, know
ing his strong desire to box, hid the
gloves. Futhill will not allow him to
put on glove until his injured thumb
heals. He has a bad cut between the
thumb and forefinger. and it requires
lot of attention. over 100 people saw
Corbett works in the gymnasium, and
they were fairly impressed with his
work.

RACE FOR $4,000
Record Breaking List of Entries
For the Great Euturity.
Thirty-0ne Youngsters Named
to Start at Sheepshead.
BIG RACE OF THE YEAR
The Keenos Have Five Entries
and Belmont Three.
Payne, the Whitney Colt, Is
Fancied by the Talent.

New York, Aug. 30--The futurity for
stake of over $4,000 and with a record
breaking list of entries for that great
event. will be run as the fourth race at
Sheepshead Bay track this afternoon.
Thirty-one horses are entered. Doubt
less there will be six or seven post an
nouncements, but it is practically cer-
tain that fully 25 colts and fllies will
face the issue over the 1888 yards and
one foot for the futurity prize. Not
since 1888, when Proctor Knott won the
first futurity has there been more In
tense interest than in this race.
The crowd was even larger than had
been looked for. Long before noon
thouands of lovers of thoroughbred
horses began to flock to the track by
the seaside. The conditions were such
that record breaking performance
was regarded as probable. The six fur
long time over the course is LIP 1-5
and the full course will be run today.
Soon after noon there were from eight
to ten thousand persons on the club
grounds, as great a number as saw the
famous futuritv in 1893. when Domino
Gahlee and Dubbfns fought out heart
breaking struggle down the home
stretch

San Francisco. Aug. 30.-Alex Greg
gains manager of George Gardner, is
not sure that Jack Root will be the
Lowell boys next opponent 1t all de-
pends upon Root himself. If the chi
cagoan can get his injured hand into
shape in a reasonably short time he will
be given a return match. Should the
injury delay the meeting too long, Greg
gains has it in mind to bring Tom Shar-
key and his charge together.
The sailor has been anxious to meet
Gardner, and GreggainS is OF the Op1n-
ion that the contest would be gooQ
card here. In this he will probably find
himself mistaken, for every time Shar-
keys name has been mentioned in con-
nection with match here such howl
of protest has gone up that the pro-
meters have been forced to turn the
sailor down.
At a meeting held at Corbett's it was
Peter Jackson and Morgan Williams of
Denver should be held on "Wednesday.
September 8. The Acme club of Oak
land is to handle the fight. Both men
are already in active training. Young
Peter Jackson is working at Blanken's.
Williams has been preparing himself
at croll's in Alameda ever since his
arrival here several days ago. Billy Ed
man will win. and has signed a con-
tract with AL HEREFORD in which he
agrees to bet $500 at prevailing odds on
the outcome
There is more than a share of the
purse and the side bet at stake in this
battle. jackson has been signed to
meet Al Neill, but should he lose to Will
liaIns the latter will take his place in
the Neill contest.
q Can Tim Hegerty come in at 125
pounds ringside weight and be strong?
This is the question that sporting men
are asking. The answer is invariably,
IF he can he will defeat Kid McFad
den next Friday night at Woodward's."
