o'CoNNELL TO WHISTLE.

Hartford, Nov 21.-AS the time for the wrestling match between Leon Filiere of Manchester and Edward J. O'COnnell of Yale draws near, the in- terest in Manchester is becoming more intense. Both men are training dih- gently and will be in the pink of con- dition when they meet on the mat.
 O'Connell, besides being instructor at Yale in wrestling, is also the holder of the lightweight championship of New England and is well known ip wrestling circles. He has met and de- feated some of the best men at his weight in the country.
 Filiere. on the other hand, is an un- known quality as far as local history goes. but his friends have much con- fidence in him and look to him 10 win. His first lessons in the game were re- ceived while he was a member of the late r. A. c. club of South Manchester and his instructor was Farmer Burns. Later he received a few points in the game from Mike Dwyer. This was four years ago, but since that time he has had experience in Canada and the West Indies.
 The match is catch-as-catch-can, strangle hold barred, pin falls only to count. the men to weigh in between 3 and , o'clock on the day of the match at not more than 13S pounds. The hatch is for a purse of S4OO- the win ner to take ali John C. Long will ref pfee. Some of the big ones will be at the match. Harvey Parker will be in O'Connells corner.
 There will be preliminary between M. J. Madden, we'll known for his bi- cycle riding on the local tracks. who has now turned to wrestling. and Issie Winters of this city. a member of the Regal Athletic club. They will urestIe at catch weights for a purse of so which has been deposited with John c. Long.

POOL AND BILLIARDS.
Hueston Posts Forfeit and De Orc @'7 Loses Title of Champion.

Thomas Hueston of St Louis, ac- cording to the best information obtain able, is the champion pool player of the world. Hueston challenged AL fredo De Gro after the latter recently defeated William H. Clearwater, who had challenged for the emblem, at St Louis.
 Hueston's forfeit money has been in the hands of the Brunswick Bake Col lender Go twelve days, the ten days when De Gro should cover or forfeit the emblem given by this company having expired Saturday. De Orc has been in Chicago recently, but no infor- nation has been received from that city as to his intentions of playing Hueston, and yesterday the big bll- Hard company notified him to turn the emblem over to Hueston.
 This is the second time De Orc has forfeited the emblem within year the first time about six months ago. when Jerome R. Keogh, having cha,- lenged and De Orc insisted upon play ing in Havana. although the rules gov erning the emblem required that the contests must be played in the United States.
 De Orc. however, later challenged Keogh and won. He had previously defeated Grant Eby, who had chal. lenged after De Orc first won the en- blem In a tournament at St Louis last winter. Hueston and De Orc have played four times, the last time in the St Louis event. It is said that because of personal feeling De Orc has re- fused to accept HuestOn's challenge The latter is the recognized champion of the southwest.
 De Gro recently made a claim upon the billiard company for the emblem on the ground that it had become his personal property, having won it four times and defended it for a year. As he has twice forfeited within year, however, such claim was regarded as ridiculous. and he will either have 10 play HuestOn or retire from champion, ship competitions.
 Among pool players it may be said to De Oro's credit that there are very few in the world regarded as his equal. Hueston will not hold the emblem long unchallenged. as Eby. Clearwater, Keogh and Wenrick would like to meet him.
