TRAINING CAMP REPORTS.
Young Corbett Is Overweight, but Will
Be Ready for Fiuht.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, March %
Both McGovern and Young Corbett are
receiving hosts of friends every day
now. AS the date of the fight with
Terrible Terry" approaches the opin-
ion is gaining ground that the Denver
man will be "fit' when he steps into
the ring, and prepared to give the
Brooklyn phenomenon a hard battle.
Rothwell, ST., who came all the way
from Denver to see his son, expresses
the greatest confidence in the ability
of the lad to win.
Corbett is over weight, but will find
little trouble in getting to 127 pounds
at o'clock.
"The champion is now in better shape
than l have ever seen him a week be-
fore a fight" said Trainer Tuthill to-
day. His wind Is fine, his muscles
hard and firm, and his whole constitu-
ton is keyed up to the situation This
week he will put in by taking long
spins on the road and in boxing in the
gymnasium. He has some weight to
reduce, but will find no trouble in talk
ing it off. 1 have now only one word
to say TO the public, and that is that
Young COrbett will be in the very best
of physical condition when he steps
into the arena with McGovern."
The latter and his trainers say the
same thing of the Brooklyn terror. so
that great fight can be looked for.

CANTILLION LOSES
ANOTHER PITCHER
TwirIer Gutter Decides to Continue
Playing in the West

MILWAUKEE, Wis. March 25.-
Manager Cantillon, of the Milwaukee
team of the American association, has
lost another pitcher. This time it is
Cutter, the Californian, and, while he
is unknown away from the Pacific
slope, there is no doubt Cantillon be-
lieVed him to be one of the best men
he has signed.
The manager of the Brewers brought
the information from Chicago that
Cutter had written to him to the eff
feet that he preferred to remain on
the coast another season, and that he
would return the money advanced him
by the Milwaukee club as soon as he
could. Cutter had signed with Mama
ger Fisher. of the Sacramento team
of the outlaw league, and after Cam
tillon reached here he learned that
the youngster had got in trouble 1t
appears that he tried to leave Fisher
and jump to the Pacific Northwest
league, and that his manager had him
arrested on the charge of getting
money under false pretenses and
thrown in jail. He was released on
bail and the case will be taken to the
courts. The fact is that if Cutter
should leave Fishers team he will ioin

League association, which will force
him to fulfill his contract with Mil

JOHNSON ROASTS
PRESIDENT DAILY
Head of American Replies to
Criticism of His
League.

CHICAGO, March 25.-In reply to a
statement given out at Mobile yes
terday by Tom DAILY, president of what
Is left of the Players Protective aSso-
citation, to the effect that the Ameri-
can league had accomplished nothing
for the good of baseball or the play
ers, President Ban Johnson made a
terse and characteristic rejoiner.
Among other things, DAILY said that
the American league was compelled
at the peace conference to swallow
the reserve rule, against which it
fought for two years and which it
promised the players who jumped the
National league would never be revived
again.
That statement" said Mr.. Johnson,
lis an absurdity. The American
league never fought to abolish the
reserve rule and never said it would.
We fought for the right of existence
as major league and in that fight
were forced to bring about state OF
chaos in the baseball world. But in all
that time the reserve rule was in oD-
Grafton right in our own league. The
Washington club, for instance, could
not take player from any other club
in the league without permission.
The National league was the first
to violate the reserve rule, when in the
fall of 1850 it wiped out all our prop
erty rights and went out to sign our
players. Dick Paden was the first
player who jumped the reserve rule,
and he jumped from the American
league to the st. Louis National league
team. We We're compelled to fight the
National with it's own weapons and
paid no more attention to the reserve
rule than the club owners of that or
ganization did to ours
The reserve rule is the bulwark of
organized baseball and no peace be-
tween the two leagues was possible
without it. There is no other protec-
ton against the dishonesty of a great
many of the players, who have not
hesitated to hold the club owners of
both leagues up for immense salaries.
The players have had two years of
harvest and have no cause for COM
plaint.
DAILY says the American league has
done nothing for baseball nor for the
players. Three years ago Daily was
playing in Brooklyn for a salary of
$2.100 or $4,000, I don't remember
which. The American league gave
him q tWo-year contract for $500 q
year. That is a pretty good increase
for n player of DaIys age And what
is true in his case is equally true in
the case of nearly every ball player of
repute in the country. That is what
the league has done for the player.
For the betterment of the game this
last war has brought into our league
and into. the National league as well
4 lot of clean, honest sportsmen, who
are credit to the game and insure it's
being conducted on clean lines for
years to come.
The players are receiving higher
salaries today than ever before in the
history of the game. Ten years or
more ago, at the close of the associa-
tion war, the players salaries were cut
in half by the National league. Moth
ing of that sort will happen this
time
Regarding the existence or renewal
of the players association, President
Johnson refused to be quoted.

Crooks.

Relative to the coming bout between
Terry McGovern and Young Corbett,
Bat Masterson said today:
Il don't care to offer an opinion on
the outcome of the McGovern- Corbett
fight. I sincerely trust however, that
McGovern will win No man can be
tied up as Corbett is with certain peo-
pie in Denver and be on the level, and
for that reason 1 would not bet nickel
on him, no matter how much l thought
of his chance of winning. l know pos
itively that Corbett tried to fake a fight

Dave was to lay down. The fake,
however. was prevented by the author
tiles stepping in and prohibiting the
show from taking place. If Young Cor
bett was on the level he would not
stick to that bunch of Denver crooks as
he does The fact that he persists in
mixing up with the Denver push and
permitting himself to be led around like
pet dog with a collar around his
neck whenever he is in Denver has
made him so unpopular out there that
he cannot live there with any degree of
comfort"

An unknown man. apparently about

which may terminate fatally.
The man was seen walking along

not see the passenger train, for he
walked directly in front of the loco

squarely in the back, hurting him twen-
ty feet into the air.

the unknown man was hurried to the
city hospital. There was nothing about
