i'm that position the team has had. Nc

BILE pillars of strength to the team last
year, are out, as are the sub halfs. Light
body and Hawthorne, both of whom could
have had places on this years team had
they remained. Bearson, the half and
tackle who made many brilliant plays last
year, is out to stay, as are Quarters Pres
ton and Wilkinson.
O'Daniel, the big guard, will be here,
howe er, and Safeguard Dewey, Center
Covall and Tackle Baker, all good men,
will be here again. according to their pres
ent plans, and they will have to make the
foundation for the new team.

FIGHTERS GET BIG MONEY.
Jenries Receives $32,52S, While Cor
bett Pulls Down x1O,0lO.

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 15--According to
the official count 1869 people viewed the
contest between Corbett and Jeffries. The
gross receipts amounted to SCI 500. OF this
sum the fighters received 20 per cent. or
$43. 62S. which was divided IS per cent. to
the winner and % per cent. to the loser.
After his victory Jeffries is enriched to the
extent of So, 72S. while Corbett gets 5000.
There was practically very little money
bet on the fight at the local poolrooms. The
heaviest money wagered was by friends of
Jeffries, who anne up from southern Cali
fornia to see the m win. Nearly all
the money bet went at the odds of two to
one in Jeffries' favor. The reason given for
SO little betting is generally conceded that
the betting public had very little confidence
in Corbett'S chances.

BILL NOT QUASHED.


NEW YORK, Aug. 15.-United States
Judge Edward b. Thomas to-day denied a
motion of George f. Miller to quash the
indictment found against him for bribery.
Miller was indicted wit Congressman Ed
mund N. briggs, the Indictment against
the former charging him with paying
briggs certain drafts a~ggregating $3.725 for
the congressman's aid i'm procuring a con-
tract from the United States government
with the +. j. Bradt-Dent Company for
cash registers.
Miller alleged that the Indictment did
not state among other things when the
alleged contract with the Postofice Depart
ment was produced b. briggs. He also
claimed that the testimony given by HIM
self before the grand jury did not show
that he knew that briggs was a member OF
Congress at the time he made the admitted
deals with him and alleged that briggs had
not in fact qualified as a member of Con-
gress at that time.
