WRESTLING.
JUST AS
 EXPECTED
Cotch and Jenkins Are Matched To Wrestle In Madison Square Garden Other News.

Frank Gotch, Americans catch, as, catch-can champion, and Tom Jenkins, the ex-champion, have, been matched to wrestle again for the American cham pionship. The match was clinched yes. ierday afternoon, and the men are to meet on Wednesday, March 15, Ut Madison Square Garden. The contest will be to finish, the man gaining two falls out of three to be declared the winner. They will wrestle for side bet of $1 ,0OO each, this amount having been placed in the hands of F.. H. Sul- livan by the packers of the two men when the contest was clinched.
 This match is really the outcome of Jenkins's quick defeat of Jim Parr, the English champion, last Friday night. The Clevelander handled the English man with such ease, and threw hin, twice in so much shorter time than it took Gotch to accomplish the same trick, that the latter realized that the New York public demanded he give Jenkins a return match. That Gotch was quick to grasp this fact was evi- Genced by a statement he sent out from Buffalo Saturday in which heacceded to Jenkins's demands, and immediately after sent a representative to New York to make the match.
 Jenkins will train for the con- test at Thompson's gymnasium. Gotch and his manager, Horace Lerch, will come to New. York between now and Saturday and select referee for the match and clinch the other details.

THE SCHEDULE COMMITTEE.

Bridgeport, March IA meeting of the schedule committee of the Conuec- ticut Baseball league was held here last night and it was stated at it's conclusion that schedule had been drawn subject to the approval of the directors who are to meet in New Ha- ven March 70. One of the members of the committee said the schedule pro- vitles that each club play 17 games with each of the other clubs. eight at home and eight abroad. the 1Ith to be played in the larger cities. This leaves no open dates during the seasOn and as it is understood that some of the directors are against the adoption of a schedule which allows no open dates. there is likely to be contest before it is accepted.
 Secretary James H. O'Rourke. Dan- iel O'Neill of Springfield. and Charles H. Humphreys of New London cVIn- prise the schedule committee.

THE DIAMOND.
BIG GEORGE
 LOOKS SAFE
Jimmey Collins Will Scarce ly Drop the Local Lad Yet AWhile-Batch will Be 8 Fixture.

It now looks as if Lachance would do the same old trick on first base for the Boston Americans next season. It is handicap for young intielder to he obliged to fight for his place with the incumbent before him all the time. This has tendency to make him nerv- ous, and he is far from being at his best. It is very much like trying to play ball with sword hanging over ones head. Grimshaw, according to all reports. is superior to Lachance ih batting, but not to be compared for q moment with the veteran when it comes to fielding. Collins will never select man who is not up to the trick of digging the balls out of the dirt, in which Lachance shines as do few first basemen in the country. Big George has been taking the best of care of himself this season, and is ambitious to outshine all former performances. He does not relish the idea of giving up his position to any one else, for this would mean his retirement from major league ball. There is no doubt at all that he played the finest ball last sea. son he ever did in his life.

GENERAL NOGI.

the force advancing eastward has cap- tured Onshiniu and Tachucapu, close to the railroad and twelve miles south of Mukden.
 The Russian center las retired to Tinchatun station. ten miles south of Mukden. It is believed the Russians have set fire to their stores and re- treated.
 The escape of the main Russian forces seems impossible. It is already estimated that the troops opposing the left wing have lost more than 10000 men. rs~s
 The Russians are throwing away their arms and clothing tn order to facilitate their escape.
 General Nogi's Third army from Port Arthur has advanced far on the left wing and swept all before it. Nogi's men are reveling in the field work, which they regard as child's play after the siege of Port Arthur.
 Generals Oku and Nogi are hammer. ing the Russians back upon Mukden sThe dramatic feature of all the recesfi fighting has been the forced march of General Nogi's Port Arthur army, which, advancing between the Hun and Liao rivers, not only passed the Russian right flank, but reached a point so near Mukden that its bursting shrapnel is visible from the western gates of the town.
 The valley in front of the Russian position has become a valley of death. Corpses strew the debatable ground from which neither side can remove its dead.
 Again and again the Japanese charged down the slope and up the hill. Again and again the Russians counter attacked, trying to gain pos session of "the hill with the tower No quarter was asked for or given by either side. The enmity ceased only in death, the wounded, with breasts torn open by shrapnel or bayonet. es- saying another shot with their last breath.
 Everywhere corpses. corpses. corpses.
 For two days the Russians have been concentrating heavy artillery fire on ''the hill with the tower" stop ping the Japanese sapper work. At o'clock fin the morning the Russian skirmishers heard noise at 'the hill with the tower" Creeping forward. they discovered that the Japanese were heaping up corpses as defenses. The Russian field batteries immediately opened fire and forced a cessation of the work.
 It is reported that the scouts of Gen eral Nogis and General Kuroki's ar. mics are already in touch behind Tie pass.
 Tokyo and Shanghai reports this morning say that the Japanese have al. ready seized the railway and that Gen eraI Kuropatkin's retreat has been cut of.

ANOTHER ONE ON TIM HURST.


 Tim Hurst told storM on himsslff- at the base ball meeting that, while not new to some, will bear repeating. A young minor leaguer had come into the National league with flare of trum- pets, and Tim was the umpire of the youngsters first game. Everything seemed. to go wrong with the minor that day; he was either too far out or too far in playing the outfield. and he made no showing at the bat. The next day, however, he started off with a swinging hit and followed it up with two more. His courage was back, and his fielding matched his batting. The fourth time up Tim called a strike on d ball over the corner, and the young. ster gave him look that was meant to kill. Tim. in his peculiarly sarcastic way, gave the youngster this call: ''In the big leagues" with emphasis on the big "there' are four corners to the plate.' "That may be- replied the youngster, .S.but I did not know they had bay windows"

Fitz and half a dozen strong men held the beast. who in spite of the use of chloroform roared with pain as the dentist fussed in his mouth. Some time ago the same dentist placed flf- teen diamond filings in the lanky pu- gilist's mouth and Bob said that the work was so satisfactory that his lion should receive the benefit of the doc sor's skill.
