WRESTLING. MATCH MADE
 AT LAST.
Kelly and Cnaki to Meet on March 3l--Bothner Failed to Throw the Canadian French Wrestler Here.

At last an agreement has been reached between Manager Dick How ell of Bridgeport, acting for Billy Cnaki, and Manager Joe Lawlor of this city, acting for John E. Kelly, and the men will meet In this city on March 31. The first date selected was March 10, but it was found impossible to secure the hall. The next date was March 24, but this did not prove satis- factory to Manager Howell, as it would interfere with other dates for Cnakl Finally yesterday the. 31st of March was mutually agreed upon be- tween the two managers and the two wrestlers. The terms will be the same as those which governed the last match. The men will weigh in at 145 pounds at o'clock in the afternoon on March 31. They will be given 90 per cent of the gross receipts of the house and will wrestle for 76 per cent to the winner and 25 per cent to the loser. Both men have started in on the train ing table and there is no doubt but that this will be the fastest match ever witnessed in the New England states. There will be two corking good pre- liminaries and the tournament should attract the interest of all lovers of good clean and straight sports.

LICENSE IN FORESTvILLE
Another Applicant at the Forest
 House Turned Down.

There seems to be deterrnfned ef- fort on the part of Charles F. Michael and some others in Bristol to get q liquor license at the Forest house in Forestville for some member of the Michael family or some one closely as- sociaeed with it. For the fifth time within a few months the county com missioners yesterday refused to grant liquor license at the place.
 Louis $. Burg, who is double brother-in-law of Charles K. Michael, made an application for license at the place. The double relationship comes in in that MT Michael married Burg's sister and Burg married Mich aePs sister. There was remonstrance and when it was understood that Burg would not get q license he withdrew his application. Then Charles { +. Michael applied and his application also was refused, the commissioners believing that he was acting in the in terest of Burg. George E. Michael, son of Charles F. Michael, next ap- pied. and he was also refused.
 John C.. Nichols next applied. He testified that he was not related to any of the parties. and when Judge Peck, acting for the remonstrants, asked him If it wasn't understood in Bristol that he was engaged to marry Burg's sis ter. he volunteered the information that he was a married man, that his wife was living in Stamford apart from him, but that he had taken Burg's sister out sleighriding and that she had accompanied him to dances and entertainments The commission CTS, believing that Nichols was acting in the interest of Burg, denied his ap- licafion.
 George r. Scheer was the next. one to apply for license at the place and it developed at the hearing before l4e commissioners yesterday morning that his wife is sister of Mir Michael He was represented at the hearing by .,il- liam J. Malone, and Judge Peck ap- peared against the application. MT Scheer said that he had paid MT Mich aeI S1,5O0 for the property and under tue terms of the conditional bill of sale exhibited to the commissioners bal ance of $1.900 was to be paid when Mir Scheer found himself able. He did not say that the payment of $1,50O was conditioned on his getting q liquor license. but he believed that if he did not get license Mir Michael, being his brother law, would use him right in the matter. The commissioners de cided that MT Scheer was an unsuita- ble person to be licensed at the Forest house and denied the application.

During his residence in Lon don he has met and thrown such cracks as Joyce, Mndley, Carroll He was anxious for tl1ssle with Tom Connors, but the latter said he was too old for the renchman, Although Fournier is willing to meetAall corners, he would prefer match with Piening, the Butcher Boy.

FITZ AND M'COY.

There is some talk of Bob Fitz- simmons and Kid Mccoy having it out in limited round bout. The chance of the match being brought about is decidedly slim, as Mccoy will not arrange the encounter unless Titz will agree to make certain weight. Mccoy wants it at 16o pounds. but Bob will not listen to such proposition unless the mill is for twenty rounds. As the only place available to fight outside of Talifor- uia is Philadelphia and only six round bouts are allowed there, the battle be- tween the two. if clinched. will take place in the Quaker City. For this reason the Cornishman thinks that catchweights will do.
 T will have to train just as hard for six as I would for twenty" said Bob yesterday. ''but reducing to cer- tain notch for six rounds is all bosh I only weigh 1S0 pounds stripped now and I am far from being iri trim. < can get to 15S pounds if need be, but whnt's the use In a six round bout?"
 At any rate George Considina post sod s5.C00 yesterday for Mccoy tc, bind ' mill between the two Considine does not care what conditions prevail so long as q match is made.

THE PUGlLISTS.
'BRIEN IS
 PALLIATIVE.
Clever Middleweight Tells what He Could Do to All the Fighters--ncCoy and FitzsimmOns Nay Meet.

What an egotistic fellow Jack O'Brien is to be sure. Just listen to this flow of pugilistic vaporings:
 He declares that he has been em- powered by Philadelphia club to offer Jim Corbett or Fitzsimmons n purse of $5,O00 for a six-round bout with him as an early summer attrac- tion in the Quaker City. At the same time on his own hook, O'Brien asserts that he will fight Bob Fitzsimmons or Tommy Ryan at 158 pounds. or George Gardner or Jack Root at l62 pounds. O'Brien said publicly in the World, s Fair city that he would post forfeit Of S1o00 to cover his sweeping chal- lenges. He put it in this way
 If those fighters, particularly Fitz and Ryan, think they have anything on me let them talk. I mean business and am going to make those fellows !. fight or shut up. Fitz says he never entered ring weighing more than 15S pounds. I doubt that, but to show him I am willing to meet hiIn at his limit. I'll agree to fight him at that weight. He is good windbag, but I do my fighting with my fists. l will guarantee to beat Fitz if he will meet me. I will also guarantee that Tommy Ryan will no more prate or middIeweight championships if he will get into the ring for a long flght. ( ..Regarding my challenge to Gard. ner or Rodt, realize that neither or these men could make 15S pounds. It is my opinion, however, that they can do 1892. I will meet either one or them at that figure. I believe Gard Ter is one of the slowest ever saw III the ring. He would be easy for me. Let him come down to 162 and am in it to give him an argument. Ill fact. bar no man in the world Ill a ring fight. I am ilst as willing 10 meet Jeffries as l am to meet Ryan. do not mean to say that could knock Jeffries out. but he can't knock me out in a limited round go. l have chalIenegd him several times to go in Philadelphia. I have offered to meet Sharkey, Ruhlin. Mccoy or any of them. and mean the challenges.
 q think I could make no easier money, at present than to meet any of inc four fighters I mentioned first. My forfeit of Si.o00 is ready to back my challenge"
