JOHN l.. AND GRIM.

John l.. Sullivan is ready to under take the job of knocking out Joe Grim, the Human Punching Bag" In a let ter from Green Bay, Wis, the big fel. low says:
 T see by a dispatch from Atlantic City, N. J., that the Italian pugilist, Joe Grim, defies my punch. have nothing to say further than if I can knock him out inside of six rounds the winner can take the entire receipts of the house. But I will not split the purse or the receipts, as the Detroit people want me to do in four ways. My idea is and always has been that the winner take all, and if I can't knock Joe Grim out in six rounds Grim can have the entire receipts and all that goes with them. No splitting purses with me. 1 realize that FitZ- simmons and lot of others have tried to put him away and failed to do it within six rounds. Now I don't think that I can do it. I know I can. All he is compelled to do is to sign articles that the winner take all and l. will meet him for six rounds in Philadel- phia. Detroit or any other place on April 9 or 26. On April P I leave for Spokane. Wash. I am satisfied there is no man living can't land my right on inside of six rounds. and I won't allow Grim or anyone else to call me. I am open to meet all corners. and further than that, l am doing so every night in my present tour.'

CHASE A GOOD ONE.

Jackson, Miss, March 3O.-A call on Governor Vardaman in the morning and vastly improved game in the af- ternoon was the program for the New York Americans yesterday. The gov ernor remarked that base ball was one of the games that kept improving. and the New Works took the hint and made decided brace over their recent play ing.
 They shut out Jackson by score of to 0. The New Yorks have had excellent pitching all along, and yester- day afternoon the high class box work of Hogg and Whitley was supplement- ed by good hitting and activity on the bases. The men woke up, put on steam and played the game as they can play it. Not hit was made off Hogg in the first five innings and he turned seven Jacksonians back to the bench on strikes. A solitary single was all the home team registered off Rube Whitley, who. pitched the last four in- nings.
 Chase's debut in fashionable com pany was flrll of promise. He was fast as streak around first base, han ding his hands on thrown and ground balls with conspicuous skill, and was in the game all the time at the bat. He made single, sacrifice. stole a base and supplied his share of ginger. "I never saw more likely man break into fast company" saldvIvilHts iHeler, after the game. "He is light on his feet, graceful, has a fine whip and knows what to do with the hall" Chase throws left handed and bats right handed. A sensational one-hand- ed catch by Fultz, the catching and batting of kleinow and the batting of Dougherty, who suddenly got his eye on the ball, were other features of yes- terday's game. The score:
 R.H.E. Jackson =. o OOOOO OOO-O 13 New York. o OO2 1 OO2 *-5 II 1

{ WRESTLING, WILL THERE

Talk of Matching Pickett and Cronan in Another Contest-Referee for the Bothner Jap Bout

An effort is being made by friends or Dan Pickett and Dave Cronan to bring those two wrestlers together and this time in q straight match with weight to be made either in the afternoon or at the ringside on the day of the match. There are very many in this city who believe that Pickett can defeat Cronan in such match and that his work the other night was sim- ply mapped out for him, when he act ed mostly on the defensive. Cronan's friends would undoubtedly be anxious for such a match which would create even more interest than the last one and if the boys ever get together on an even up basis it will be a hurri- cane battle. There are other star matches talked of in the bringing to- gether of Jack Roach and Jesse Foley or John E. Kelly and Alex swanson. For a good preliminary for either of the above matches Fitzgerald who wrestled so we'll the other night could be matched against Lawson of Nau- gatuck. Smith of Oakville or Speh of Derby. The Waterbury lad would hold his own with any of those mat artists.

THE PuGILlsTs. WAS FIGHT
 FIXED ONE
Sports Who Have Read the
 Accounts of Hart and
 Johnson Believe it Was John |. Looking for Grim

The majority of the sports in this
 city Who have perused the accounts of
 the Hart and Johnson fight in San
 francisco on Tuesday night have come
 10 the conclusion that there was some
 thing radically wrong with that al-
 legged brilliant battle. Jim Jeffries has
 announced his willingness to take on
 the victor, Marvin Hart, at any time next fall, if the public make demand
 Tor it. But it is good betting to state
 that the people will not fall all over each other trying to have Jeffries and
 Hart get into the ring and settle the championship of the heavyweight class
 mat Tuesday night affair looks very
 much, from the returns, as though the game was fixed for Hart to win. A close perusal of the rounds will dis close the fact that Hart got, good plmmellng and received almost two DRWs to JOhnsOn's one. Hart was cut and bleeding all through the battle, while Johnson came out almost entire ly unmarked. The best informed sports throughout the country intimate that Johnson can be "approached" if the long green is stacked sufficiently nlgh. He should have won the fight the other night in ten rounds at least had he fought as those who know him are aware that he can fight. Perhaps some time the inside facts of the fight will be known, but at the present time l all talk of a battle between Jeffries and Hart is silly. ,jeffries in condition would chase Hart to the woods in a couple of rounds. It is also a good wager to make that Bob Fitzsimmofls would make Hart lose himself in the tall timber in a very few minutes. As matters look now Jeffries will have to retire without meeting a good man, unless Gotch, Jenkins or Hacken- schmidt can be trained in the fighting game. The latter of the three seems to be the best of the selection. yase<

REFERRED OF JIU JITSU.

The unique contest between Higashi the famous Japanese exponent of the mysterious method of defense, jiu- jitsu, and George Bothner, the light weight catch-as- -catch-can champion, has aroused a great deal of interest among the students of Columbia Col lege. There have been jiu-j -jitcu eXhlbi- tions galore, several of which took place at Columbia, but this meeting be- tween BOthner and Higashi will be the first serious encounter of its kind that has been held since this Japanese art became such pronounced fad in this country.
 Several of Bothners friends, alartl- ed by the reports of the bone-breaking terrors of a bona fide jiu-jitsu contest, have tried to persuade him not to meet the Jap. Bothner has laughed at them for their pains, as he has implicit con- fidence in his ability to down the little yellow man from the Orient.
 The question of referee for the match promises to create quite a wran- gle. Higashi is anxious to have Jap anese officiate, as he claims an Amcr- ican, not being conversant with the Jtu- jitsu rules, will be incompetent. Both- ner, on the other hand, states that he will not stand for such an arrange ment, but has made suggestion that there be an American referee, assisted by Japanese student of the jiu-jttsu act This decision is to be settled next Monday at a meeting between Both ner and Higashi.
 
 PARDELLO BEATEN BUT WON.
 The police took hand in the wrest- ling match betwen Leo PardellO, tine Italian heavyweight, and Shad Link of Baltimore at Saengerbund Hall in B1poklyny New .-Xprk, on, Tuesday night. The men were to have met to a finish under catch-as-catch-can rules, but the bout was stopped after Fl minutes of work in the second bout.
 From the start it was apparent that Link was PardellOs master, 'and as usual the Italian indulged in tactics that were for from being sportsman like or fair Link secured the first fall in 14 minutes and 30 seconds, pinning his mans shoulders firmly to the mat.
 After the men had rested ten min LlIlh dSSuulSu tuC hSSiVSoiNS o''u without any trouble hurled Pardelio all over the mat. PardellO was angry and broke the rules repeatedly, and on one occasion make kick at Link $ face. Pardello should have been dis qualified, but the referee allowed the match to go on. At the end of Fl minutes Pardello got Link near the end of the ring. which was about four feet from the level of the floor, aHd tossed him through the ropes, dislocat- ing Links shoulder. The fall was u hard one and Link remained on the floor for nearly two minutes in dazed condition, The crowd hissed Pardcl- lo's action. but before anything was done Link limped into the ring to finish the bout. Here Police Captain Gal lagher interfered and called the bout to il halt. Pardello was declared the winner.

EASTERN LEAGUES TROUBLES.

Just at present there iy a h6f.TIgkl going on in the Eastern League of Professional Baseball Clubs which in. wolves the retention of the presidency by F. T. Powers. who has held that office continuously for twelve years. For some time there has been n plan on foot engineered by George Stali- ings of Buffalo, Edward Hanlon of Baltimore. w. w. Burnham of New ark and Howard c. Griffith of Jersey City, to force Powers to resign, but as there are eight clubs in the league there has been a firm deadlock.
 Griffith recently withdrew from the presidency of the Jersey City club, but still held the right to represent the club at all Eastern league meet ings, where he could cast its vote.
 rnren,v Griffith has been travel ing all over the country fostering Il combination of the Class A minor leagues, with an accompanying plan to make some sort of war upon the American league. As q result of his efforts many players in the Eastern league have refused to sign contracts, expecting that war would soon be de- clared and that they would have q chance to secure increased pay as a result. z5T t'ae
 This attitude of the players has not been source of pleasure to the club owners. especially those in control of the Jersey City club. the directors of which held meeting last Monday, it is said, and decided that in future Griffith, who has no money invested in the club. could not represent the organization in the councils of the Eastern league. Instead of Griffith, the directors voted to have William Murray. the manager of the club, do the voting for the club at the coming schedule. meeting.
 With Griffith no longer able to con- trol the Jersey City clubs vote. there fore. the deadlock appears to he bro ken. for Murray is close friend of Powers. At the meeting of the league several months ago Powers was re- elected president for this year, but the opposition to him was caused by a wrangle and a difference of opinion as to the minor league demands. Grif- filth. Hanlon X Co have wanted Pow CTS to resign. but the veteran presi- dent has ignored their requests com pletely. and has also srefrained from calling a schedule meeting of the league. although the schedule of dates was completed some time aga.
