 THE RINGSIDE,.
Jimmy Britt Calls Off His
 Bout With Corbett Be- cause Latter is to Meet
 Sullivan First-Notes.

There will be no fight between Jim- my Britt, the crack San Francisco lightweight, and Young Corbett after all. According to dispatch from San Francisco Rnitt has called the en- counter off, because, he says, Corbett has broken faith with him.
 Britt adds that when he took on Corbett it was with the understand ing that neither of them was to in- dulge in any ring battle until after the fight. Corbett. however, has brc- ken this compact by signing articles to meet Dave Sullivan on February % for twenty rounds, which is two weeks before Corbett's mill with Britt.
 The cancelling of the match will no doubt come as 8 disappointment to many who have been desirous of sec ing tile two come together. Britt de clares that be will not fight Corbett unless the latter defers his match with Sullivan, which Corbett is not likely to do.

A Tame Bout.

Salem, Feb 5.--George Murray of Lynn and Tommy Feltz of Brooklyn, N. Y., fought twelve round draw before 400 people at the Apollo Ath- letic association here Wednesday night.
 The affair was tame. Neither man attempted to do any hard fighting and Feltz seemed but little inclined to take any hard ones," for he would ehnch at every opportunity.
 Murray seemed to have little the best of the argument, although noth- ing that could be termed hard blow was struck during the evening. Dick Fleming was referee.
 The liveliest bout of the evening, being give and take throughout the eight rounds, was that between Young Sanborn Of Lynn and Kid Burns of Marblehead. Sanborn was the quicker of the pair, although Burns landed some good ones. This bout was q draw.

Walcott i'm a Draw.

New Bedford, Feb 5.-Belfield Wal colt of Boston and Guy Ashley of FaIl River fought fifteen rounds to a draw in this city Wednesday night. It was a rather slow fight and for the first dozen rounds Wa1cott was slow ly wearing out his opponent. Ashley rallied, however. toward the close of the match and landed some hard punches on WaIcott's face, which did not appear to do much damage. Wal colt was generally the aggressor. Ash lev after this fought with more cour- age, and his short arm jabs appeared to worry Walcott.
 The last round was the only real fast one in the bout. when both land ed a number of well directed blows. Walcott appeared the stronger at the finish.
 The Iiveliest bout Of the evening was an eight round affair, in which Kid Paul of Fall River and Albert Delmont of Boston met at 112 pounds. The Boston boy had all the better of it., and he had Paul on his knees six or eight times. The Fall River fight CT was tired and weak in the last two rounds. Paul managed to stay in the ring till the gong rang and the ref cree said it was a draw.
 The first preliminary was between Young Potter of this city and Kid Cody of Fall River. It lasted four rounds and s ss-.s.+er had all the best of it, winning t&0 decision.

WHAT PLAYERS
 ARE DOING.
New York Americans Hust- ling for players.-Deals Being Made--Other I'm. teresting Ball News.

New York. Feb 5.-Edward Barrow, manager of the Detroit American league club, arrived in town yester- day. He said that he had come here primarily to sign Outfelder Mcintyre, who was purchased from Buffalo last fall and who resides on Staten Island. But Manager Barrow probably took the trip to come to some conclusion with the New York Americans as to the deal of Pitcher Mullen of Detroit. Clark Griffith was in Detroit last week, but he failed to close the deal, so Barrow hustled east for a confab with Frank J. Farrell. For some time past Barrow, whose beam at present is sorely ill need of infelders, has been looking for third baseman. If he could have secured Coughlin from Washington he would have let Mullen go to the local Americans in part exchange for Tannehill. But Ban Johnson put his foot down on the Coughhn end of the transaction, so negotiations were temporarily de- clared off.
 Mullen was subsequently turned down, for Barrow explained that he was after players, not cash. With All O. LCW udy 5 S& sAAC" uCol AAsAS pCC1A framed up by which Tannehill goes to Boston in exchange for Hughes, who with Third Baseman Unglaub is turned over to Detroit. Then Wash ington is to release Moran to Barrow and another American league club is to throw in a pitcher, after which New York will get Mullen and a star catcher whose name cannot be made public at present. By this deal, if Barrow consents. Detroit will get two good infelders and two pitchers, while New York will receive a high class battery, for some experts say that Mullen. who is comparative youngster, is a better. pitcher than Wild Bill'' Donovan. After a con- fab yesterday afternoon Barrow and Farrell had nothing to say for pubiica- ton, but they will get together to-day again, when there may be some tan gible developments.

Will Tuckey Jump?

Thomas Tuekey, the effective left handed twirler Of the New Havens. was in that city yesterday and told friends that he was going to the Pa cifc Coast league the latter part of the month, He has been in communica- tion with the management of the Seat tie team for some time and has finally decided to go west. Jack Lawlor, who played with Derby, New Haven and other teams In the Connecticut league, is an, outfelder on tne Seattle club. He and Tuckey have been friends several years. Tuckey is one of the best pitchers in tue league when his left arm is in good condition. Last summer he was troubled great deal with lameness, but a rest has cured the trouble. His fine pitching in the season of 1902 had much to do with landing the pennant in New Haven.

NEW YALE MOVE.
Rowing Instruction to he in the
 Hands of Yale Graduates.

New Haven, Feb 5.-Yale has de- cided on radical new departure in boating matters, and as the first step in her new plan announcement was made last night that Julian W. Cur tiss of New York, Yale '79 graduate and an authority ill boating matters, had been appointed to and had accept ed the position of advisory coach of the Yale crews. This is in line with the general tendency at Yale to place all branches of athletics under the su- pervision of experienced graduates.
 Mr Curtiss was in this city yester- day in consultation with the Yale boat ing authorities, and the matter was finally decided. Since the day of Bob Cook, whose word was supreme in all affairs in rowing at Yale. there has been no official head to this branch of athletics. The captains of the crews have been assisted by graduate cap- tains. The say of MT Curtiss will be final on all matters.
 Next Saturday c. F. Adams of To- ledo, O., an ex-Yale oarsman and cap tain of last years four-oared crews, will assume the position of head coach under direction of Mir Curtiss.

Ben Renton's Shots.

The stopping of boxing in Boston has caused Ben Benton, a sporting writer, to fire some questions at Judge Emmons. who did the trick. Here they are: .....
 "Why are, you prejudiced against boxing?"
 "Is your prejudice based on what you know about the sport or from in- formation or reports of police officers who have been favored as guests of clubs?"
 Are you aware that no less than six Of the judges of the municipal court have decided that boxing meet ings given by the Criterion club are within the statutes? Further, that some of the judges have expressed themselves that it is to the legislature, not the courts, that the police should look for a remedy against boxing clubs, especially as two grand juries have thrown out boxing cases?
 'Why is distinction made be tween the Boston Athletic association, of which some of the police board are members; and the smaller athletic clubs which are as legally chartered as the more prominent athletic insti- tutions?''
 'DO you ku0W lHdI SOluS ol lAC present members of the police board have been in frequent attendance at boxing meetings, while holding their present official positions. and no ad- verse criticism has resulted?" Do you assume responsibility for Captain Westcott's forcible entrance into the Lenox A, o., his refusal to show any legal authority for his act and his refusal to leave the premises on the demand of the club officers ?'' Eminent counsel say that the ac ton of Captain Westcott forcing him self into 8 private club without lega l authority is as criminal as the act .ot a person or persons forcing themselves into private houes."
 ] 'sWhat is the occasion Of this sud den onslaught against athletic clubs 1 which give boxing tournaments. an6 l do the police exercise an authority o1

Pu if for Toe.

If Joseph Connor should decide to forsake base ball for the police force, Springfield will lose one of the best all-around players in the business. There is not a department of the game in which he does not excel. He has the best years of his life still ahead of him for base ball, and he would be unwise to settle down to any such tame employment as police duty just yet. The chances are that the stories that Connor meditates any such non sensical step are without foundation.- Springfield News.
