HACKS" MANAGER TALKS.

Chicago, H., April 1.-C. B. Coch- ran, of London, England, is at the sherman House, awaiting the arrival Of George Hackenschmide, the cham pion wrestler of the world, who is due in Chicago tomorrow morning. ''The Russion Lion," as Hacken- schmidt is called, left Frisco on the Overland Limited last Wednesday. Mir Cochran, who is managing him, said tonight:
 It is not likely that Hackenschmidt will make any public appearance in Chicago, although the Chicago Athletic club is anxious to have him meet the local champion, Rooney, ''the grip. man.
 Il am going to take him East with me on Monday, as I have arranged eight engagements to present his poses plastique' at private entertainments, in which he appeared in London at the Rothschilds. the Marlboroughs and Otll. CT Mayfair houses.
 ''Hackenschmidt will positively re- fuse to meet Jenkins or Gotch in any but his own style, which is Graeco- RO- mon. As to the rumor that he will box Jefferies, this is absurd. He has been practicing boxing, and making good progress, but should he elect to try out his ability in that line he would be- gin with the smaller fry.
 ''FOr the present, the wrestling game is good enough, but if Frank GOtch in- sists in trying conclusions with Hack enschmidt and won't wrestle Graeco- Roman, d fight between the two might be arranged"

 The custom among managers of all baseball clubs is to allow players sev- eral weeks in which to seek other posi- tIons in the event of being released. Henry's release comes at time when the other teams are well filled. Before joining Hartford last year Henry was with Springfield. He went to the Con necticut city when the club was short handed. All around he did fine work in the outfield.
 It is understood that the Atlantic City independent team seeks Henry and there is possibility of the player accepting the chance extended.

ILLNESS CRAZES PILLSBURY.
Chess Champion Tries to Jump from a Fourth Story Window.

Fourth Story Window.
 Philadelphia, April 1.-Harry w. Pillsbury, champion chess player of America, attempted to leap from a fourth story window of the Presby- terian hospital Thursday night while temporarily insane. While he was struggling to escape from several nurses and physicians who were try ing to overpower him his wife arrived and calmed him.
 Pillsbury has been patient at the hospital for week, although his friends had been kept in ignorance of the fact. A delicate operation was per- formed last Tuesday, and he has been slowly recovering, although in a high ly nervous state. His condition was he would not be well in time to partici- pate in the annual English American cable chess match which opens on April 15.
 Shortly after : o'clock Thursday night Plllsbury, who had not been per mitted to leave his bed, asked for a glass of water. When the nurse brought it to him he said that it was full of "wriggly things" To humor his whim the nurse left the room to get another glass of water. The chess champion leaped from his bed and fol lowed her. She turned and told him to go back to bed. He darted down the corridor toward an open window. The nurse screamed and several phy. sicians and nurses pursued him. They overlook Pillsbury just as he raised the window. A struggle ensued. Pills. bury fought with the strength of a madman. Nurses and, physicians were relaxing their grip on the mans clothes when Mrs Pillsbury ran down the hallway.
 What's the matter, dear?" she said softly. ''Go back to bed, Harry, or you won't be able to play in the chess match"
 Instantly he became as tractable as a child. Without protest he fol lowed his wife back to his room and climbed into his bed.

WRESTLING. !. JACK ROACH
 BEAT TONY:
Sullivan of Danbury Went Down Before the Local Lad-How Dwyer Broke His N0se-0ther News.

Miners hall in Southford was filled to the doors last evening by those who were anxious to see the wrestling con- test between Jack Roach of this city and Tony Sullivan of Danbury. Tony had come over from the >hatting town with several friends and with few dollars prepared to back himself to win the contest with the Waterbury boy. In this he was disappointed, al though when the two stepped on the mat it looked very much as. though Roach had cut out bigger game than
 ne would be able to accomplish. Sul- livan, as his first name implies. is an Italian and he had at least 15O pounds of swarthy bone and muscle to pit against Roach, who was close to 135, Roach went after his man from the tap of the bell, however, and while working on top made Tony mark for some grueling work. Tony did not like the pace a bit and seized the mat to keep hipself from being rolled over. He was warned twice and when he tried to hold on the third time he was disqualified and the first fall given to Roach after 14h. minutes of wrestling. Roach had agreed to throw Tony three falls in one hour and when they came on the mat again the local lad went out to win the money. Sullivan evil dently had gained some confidence for he gave Roach good struggle and only succumbed at the end of 2S minutes. The third fall came quicker, for Sulli- van went down in 1912 minutes, so that Roach had just five minutes to spare on the hour of wrestling. Roach and his manager, James s. Carroll, left for Danbury this morning from South ford and they will try and force Jesse Foley to give them a match at 12S pounds ringside for purse of money.

JENKINS MANAGER REPLIES.

Harry Pollock, manager for Tom Jenkins has sent the following letter to a New York sporting writer:
 I see by the papers that Hacken- schmidt is on his way to New York: :: ing, and will probably reach New York the first of next week. The time is ripe. therefore, for Hackenschmidt and his manager. C. R. Cochran. to gi-e some bona fide reason for the Russians refusal to meet Tom Jenkins at catch as-catch-can style of wrestling.
 A week ago Mir Cochran sent an open letter to the press in which he stated that Hackenschmidt would not wrcstle Jenkins catch-as-catch-can be- cause the Russian. who. by the way. is a German. is strictly a Graeco-Ro- man wrestler and has never wrestled a catch-as-cstch-can match. Mir Coch ran is careless with truth, or else he has a very bad memory.
 The following cablegram is an an- swer to one I sent to London for a lit tie inside information regarding the Hackenschmidt-C Cochran combination:
 "Hany Pollock. New York--Hacken- schmidt beat Carkeek Cannon catch Liverpool Skeets.-

HIGHLANDEhS WIN AuA1N'
 Jackson, Miss, April 1.-The New York Highlanders defeated the Jack sons here yesterday, to 3, in the last game of the series of four. Splendid base-running distinguished the visitors play.
 Eigh stolen bases was their record, of which Conroy got three and Chase two. Manager Grifiiths instructions was for his players to steal at every opportunity, so as to give battefs chance to bunt or sacrifice. Many or the bunts were beaten, and the local players were kept extremely busy.
 Chase again showed up finely. He nit the ball on the nose every time. al though he only got one safe hit. Con roy's batting was excellent. In fact the whole team showed much more ginger than usual. Starkel's arm is still sore and stiff, but is coming around.
 Puttman's southpaw slings were al- together too puzzling for the local bats men.
 The Highlanders left at 10 o'clock last night for Atlanta, where they will remain until Thursday of next week. They are scheduled for four games there, the first tomorrow.
 Clarkson was hit in the groin by a foul ball during the practice. but was around in the afternoon ill his street clothes. The score:

ThIS WAS VERY STRANGE
Young Corbett Fouled But Allowed a Rest of Five Minutes - More Good Battles Decided.

Baltimore, April 1.-When Young Corbett was fouled by Kid Sullivan in the second round of their fight be- fore Al Herfords Eureka Athletic club here last night, there was wild excitement in the large crowd of spec tatOrs.
 Sullivan had tried for a right up- ,percut, but the blow went very low and the Denver boy had to stop fight ing because of his agony.
 Although Young Corbett got in one or two stiff half-arm j0lts in the first round, Sullivan evened up matters with his clever sparring. They opened faster in the second, Sully landing two heavy rights on Young Corbett's s jaw, but the Denver boy paid no heed to them and came back with some heavy body smashes.
 Then the Kid hit Corbett a fierce smash below the belt and the Denver lad staggered. He appealed to the referee, but the latter failed to see any foul. Corbett seemed in great pain and was led to his corner as the bell rang.
 Cries of fake were started and SOIOcIC was gwen LllTee IuluuIeS to recuperate. At the end of that time he was unable to continue and the time was stretched two minutes more. Then the men shook hands and start ed on the third round.
 The fight went the limit of ten rounds and was declared a draw.
 Young Cans and Buck Washington, two black feathers, put up the first preliminary. It was called a draw at the end of three rounds. The second prelim was also three-round draw between Matty Knox and Jimmy Me Grath, lightweights. Alexander Brown fought another three-rountl draw with Young Larry Temple at the lightweight limit.
 Then the betting commenced on the main bout. There was even money of fered that Sullivan would not last five rounds. As there was quite some de- lay before COrbett and Sullivan ap- peared, Benny Franklin and Mitchell Levi were put on for another triple session prelim. It went the limit to draw.
