He will train for the encoun- ter at place to be selected for him by the club Corbett will leave for the Pacific coast in few days. He has a few matches on in some of the big cities out west, and these bouts, he thinks, will aid him in keeping in trim. Jordan, it is said, has agreed to meet Young Corbett at 126 pounds.
 Bob Fitzsimmons has turned man. ager, and in the future will pilot the affairs of Hank Griffin, the negro hea- vyweight of California Griffin arrived in New York from San Francisco yes terday. This is his first trip east. Griffin wants to fight anybody in the business. Fitz believes that he can make a real champion out of Griffin, and will give him several pointers about the manly art. Griffin did not remain long in New York, for he ac- companied Fitz to Athens, Pa, where the Cornishman is to appear in a spar ring bout with him this afternoon. Re- garding his future plans Fitz said:
 My match with George Gardner is settled, and all that is necessary now to make it binding is for both of us to deposit our forfeits. This will be done as soon as we hear definitely from the officials of the Yosemite A. c. of San Francisco, where the battle is to be held.'

 Csames--other Baseball News.
 PITTSBURG, Oct. 7.-Notwithstanu- Ing showers and threatening weather the first game on the home grounds of the world championship series between Pittsburg and Boston was played, re- sulting in victory for the local team, 6 to 4.
 Philippe again pitched for Pittsburg. and again was his great work mainly responsible for the downfall of the American league champions. His con- trol was perfect and his support su- perb, q dropped thrown ball by Brans- field being the only misplay. Only four singles were made of his delivery up to the ninth inning. However, in this Inning the visitors developed a batting streak and for a moment seemed likely to tie the score, but he steadied down and retired the side after three runs had been scored.
 For Boston Dineen was hit rather hard at times. His support was also of the best.
 Boston did not score until the fifth, when Lachance's single, Ferris sacri- ice and Criger's single gave them one run. This was the extent of their run getting until the ninth, when Collins, Stahl, Freeman, Lachance and Ferris all hit safely and aided by Farrell's long fly netted them three runs.
 The series now stands three to one in eavor of Pittsblirc

wATERRoY WILL NoT RAcE.

New York, Oct 7.-Waterbof, east ern champion among the race horses of the season, will not race again this season, and 1t is said to be considered doubtful whether he will ever face the barrier again. The horse was being prepared for the Brighton cup contest and was being worked slowly over the Sheepshead Bay track when. upon nearing the end of his trial, he faltered in his stride. His exercise lad pulled him up and 1t was found that one of the forelegs was injured at the pastern joint. The retirement of Waterboy at this time effectually disposes of any possible meeting with McChesney.

THE AMATEURS.
The Race will Probably End This
 Week.

The Race Wlll FroDaDly Enu IAlS
 Week.
 At a meeting of the managers of the City Amateur Baseball league last night there was much discussion as to how the league was to end up the sea son's business unless some of the lead ing teams dropped out of the race and allowed one team to get ahead. It was expected that the final games would be played next Sunday, but 1t does not seem possible to do this. How ever, much will depend on the result of the games assigned for next Sun day and perhaps one more game after those assigned for this week will settle the pennant.
 The games for next Sunday are as follows: At ? o'clock the Washington Hills and the Merrimacs will face each other. At o'clock, or directly after the first game Is finished, the Brook lyns and the St Josephs will meet. II the Washington Hills are beaten 1t will very likely put that team out or the running for the pennart. n the second game either team must drop out of the race unless the game ends in a tie. Those will be two great games and may settle the pennant.
 There may be third game on Sun day If the North Ends can get their team together. This game will be played between the North Ends and the Pastimes. That will finish up all the games to be played by those two teams. The Brooklyns also wind Up their series next Sunday, while the Hills and the St Josephs have one more game after Sunday.

THE WORLDS RECORD
German Electric Oar Makes
 Quickest Time.
4 SPEED OF 125 MILES PER HOUR
Electric Force Was Capable of Dr1v- ing the Car 200 Miles Per Hour. Heavy Life Insurance For
 Those on Trial Twap.

BERLIN, Oct. 7.--An electric car on the Marienfelde-Zossen experimental line reached speed of 125 4-5 miles per hour, or kilometer more than the highest previous record, at a trial just made.
 The machinery and roadbed were un- impaired. The engineers are deter mined to try for still higher speeds and venture the opinion that they will be able to attain the rate of 1A0 miles per hour.
 The current was between 13,000 and 14O0o volts, capable of driving the car at the rate of over POO miles, This power is reduced by transformers to about 450 volts. The car used had four motors having together about HOO horse power. It was constructed on the Siemens- -Halske system.
 The lives of all on board the expert mental car were heavily insured.
 A large party of engineers, military men and civilians gathered at Dall- witz, where the highest points of speed are reached in these experiments. A French observer remarked that the new sensation of the power of velocity inspired by the cars flight was worth travelling from Paris to see.
 TheYe were twelve or fourteen per sons on board the car, all technical men. They affirm that the motion of the car was no greater than that of an ordinary express train.
