BR1TT-ooRBETr BATTLE.
New Arrangements May Have to Be
Made for Meeting.

San Francisco, Jan. 23.-It is likely
that some new arrangement will have
to be made in regard to the Britt-Cor-
bett battle. Morris Levy, manager of
the Hayes Valley club, finds he will
have great difficulty in carrying out
his contract to provide a seating ca
pacity for 1000 at Woodward's pavilion,
and the club may have to pass up the
fight. The pavilion at present will
barely seat 5000. To raise this to 1000
will require the expenditure of $4,000.
The owners are not inclined to spend
this sum, when they get but $4,000 a
year lease for the structure. Levy sees
only a financial loss if he undertakes
to do the work. Levy is somewhat
discouraged. and may have to throw
himself on the mercy of James Coff-
roth and hold the fight at the Me-
chanicS' pavilion.

in his western bouts he will go to Frisco
and try to get a match with Young
Corbett- Yanger has met the champion

o'Day Wants No Changes.

Chicago, Jan. 2S.-t"They would better
leave the present baseball rules alone"
said Hank O'Day, the veteran umpire,
today. There was no trouble at all in.
the game last year. and there will be
none this season If the laws remain the
same. The foul strike rule is just the
thing, and has done the work for which
it was intended [ do not favor the
idea of three balls emitting the batter
to his base. This rule would lead to
much dissension, for the pitcher would
contend for everything that came within
two inches of the plate. Two coachers
are not going to make any difference as
far as I can see.'
