THE. .DIA M ON D
CUBS HOT AFTER
 BROOKLYN STAR
Willing to Trade Reulbach, Hoff- man and Slagle, With $7,ooo,
 For Hard-Hitting Lunley.

One of the most startling offers ever made in baseball came to light when It was learned that the Chica- go National League club has offered
 the Brooklyn management Reulbach. Honman, Slagle and a $7,0OO bonus
 m exchange for Harry Lumley of the Superbas. This offer was made Octo-
 Der 27, and the Brooklyn manage ment refused 1t Saturday.
 This proposition puts such famous propositions as the Clarkson-Kelly deal way in the shade, and such mi nor incidents as shannon and Sey- mour for $10.000 per to New York are not to be mentioned in the same breath. It really puts Lumley's val ue up between $20,000 and $25,00O,. the most expensive ball player of his- tory. Lumley's batting average is .324. He made 72 runs and 157 hits.
 Reulbach is one Of the greatest pitchers in the National league, Hoff- man is perhaps the best utility man Tn the same organization, and Slagle Is crackerjack of fielder. ReuI- bach led the Cubs in pitching honors. and Hoffman showed his usefulness this season through and in the post season series with the Sox. And Slagle can get on first base when practically everybody else fails. Ger tainly splendid trio. And then ST.. 900 to boot!
 The man desired, Lumley, Is un- questionably one of the grandest players of the day. But it is in bat ting that he eXcels. His name has become famous as a slugger, and the number of home runs. triples and doubles he has made is remarkable Although short ,stocky man. he ia fast on his feet and can steal bases with the best of them. Out fin the field he is like cistern, and he can play any of the three gardens, right

THOMAS MAY BE MATCHED.

Now that the Mike (Twin) Sulli. van-Joe Thomas battle is of, it may be that the latter and Billy Roden. bach will get together and make a match. Thomas is out in Frisco, and has kept the wires hot the last day or two trying to sign up with the amateur champion. who is working daily in New York at the Long Acre Athletic club.
 Rodenbach. who, it will be remem- bered. has a decision to his credit over Berger. wired yesterday to find out what weight the Californian would make.
 Billy Roche. who has the match in view for Colma, wired back that Thomas would do 150 pounds ring side.
 It is thought. however. that he will stretch this little in order to get on the shifty New Yorker. This should provide wonderful fight. as both boxers are exceptionally clever and are also hard hitters.

THE PUGILISTS
FIGHTS DOWN
 IN NEW YORK
Jack 0'Brien We'll Known Here Reedtered the Ring Other
 Fight News.

New York, Nov 9.--New York Jack O'Brien and Jack Smith fur nished the main bout at the Long Acre Athletic club last night. It was O'Brien's first appearance in the ring since last winer, when he broke his arm on Kid Stein's nose. He was in poor condition last night and very clumsy on his feet. Smith, who is more or less of a burlesque fighter, jumped from one side of the ring to the other and managed by these tac- tics to get O'Brien of his guard and land many stinging blows.
 Barney Sunshine of Brooklyn caused the surprise of the night. Sun shine was unknown on this side of the bridge until he joined this club few weeks ago. It was his first appearance and he was matched to meet Bobby Moore, who is considered the best boy of his weight belonging to the club. Moore lasted two rounds.
 Sunshine was tjmid at first and received many blows without return ing. His timidness wore of quick ly, though, and before the end of the first round 1t was apparent to the members that he was Moore's super- for.
 Moore started to rush him in the second round, but the Brooklynite fought very cautiously, but when he landed his blows they had the de- sired effect. Before the round ended he had so outclassed Moore that the referee stopped the bout.
 Johnny Wilson stopped Meyer Har- ris in the first round of their bout. Willie Cullen was too clever for Ed. Shaughnessy and pecked the latter at will without receiving blow in return. George Kitson and Charlie Goodman fought'a a good draw. Joe Bedell had the better of George Hoey in the semi-final.

 Sporting Editor Evening Democrat: In response to the many challenges which have been directed at me, wish to state that I am always open and ready to wrestle any one who will show he means business. Now Mc0owan told me in Adams that he wanted to whestle me and I told him any time he had sI00 to come down to Waterbury and would wrestle him in private for $1OO a side. It seems he came down here Tuesday evening and as I knew noth- Ing about 1t, I went to New Haven. If I had suspected McGowan was fin Waterbury with s100 you can just bet that l would have been on hand to wrestle him and he would have gone back to Adams minus his S1Oo, plus a great deal of mat experience. Now if McGowan wants to meet me all he has to do is post his forfeit and I will be there to cover it and sign articles. Now as for John Kel- ly. will wrestle him for fun, money or marbles. but I wish to have it understood that I am not welter- weight. and Kelly should agree to a match al 1f0 pounds. beat him once and I don't think I have gone back any. 30 if Greasy John" means business will take him on at catch weights for a purse. winner take all. but If he makes 13s pounds I will bet him anything from sI00 up that I can beat him two straight falls.

WATERBURY AND NAUGATuCK
Ready for tho Gridiron Battle ou
 Next Sunday.

Almost everything is in readiness for the game between the All Water
 bury and Naugatuck eleyens to be
 played at State league park on Sun-
 day afternoon at o'clock. That the
 game will be hot one from start to
 finish is an assured thing. and If the spectators do not get run for their money the contest will not be the same as the games played the last few years between these teams. Last evening the final arrangements for the struggle were completed. and the list of players of both teams have been handed in.
 This is the first time in six years that the Rubber town team has agreed to come to Waterbury. and 1t would not do so this season only It's manager saw that he could not in- duce Managers Slavin and Cronan to take their eleven 10 Naugatuck this year unless the eleven from down the line played a game in this city. The last time the Naugatuck team was seen fin this city was against the old Company A eleven. which defeat- cd the visitors by the score of , to c. That day the Naugatuck rooters dropped a bunch of money. They vill undoubtedly have big wads with them on Sunday to place on their eleven. as the Naugatuek rooters when they think their team has a chance, back it with their last dol lar.
 All the cars from Nauxat1ck Sun day afternoon. up until the time the game starts. will run directly to the grounds. the Waterbury management inducing the trolley company to carry out this plan.

THE SPORTING NEWS.

Meegan, Hart, Kelly and D. Schild. gen., The material for good team Is certainly in the above names and If the men play as they were wont In the past they should give All Wa. terbury the fight of the season Among the names are couple oi high school players. Leary and Meegan, perhaps in the game for their drop kicking ability.
 The Waterbury managers handed in the following list: Dodds, Porter, Wentworth, Hannah, Brant, Ma nancy. Stowe, Riley, Cronan, Bauby, Sheehan. Lawlor, Hayes, Shields, Matt Burns. John and Joe Bagley. If Matt Burns is in the game he will greatly strengthen the home team. It Is thought he will practice tonight with the team. The All Waterbury eleven is practicing hard each even- ing and the players are confident of winning the game.
 The officials for the game will be selected tomorrow and will in all probability be Yale men.

DECIDING A BET.
When the Corbett and Sullivan Prize
 Fight Took Place.

There have been many requests of late for a decision on the date of the Jim Corbett and John L. Sullivan fight, when Sullivan was knocked out of the title of champion. The fight took place in New Orleans on Sep tember [. 1892. Sullivan was a big fayorite and perhaps more money was lost on the big fellow in this battle than was ever placed in a fight before. Bat Masterson was timekeeper for Corbett and W. A. Brady. the present great theatrical man. was in Corbett's corner as his packer and promoter. Sullivan had Johnston. McAuliffe. Joe Lannen and Casey. the football player. in his cor ner. Prof Duffy was the referee. After giving Sullivan a fearful beat ing for twenty rounds. Corbett put him down and out in the twenty first.

MAY JOIN DETROIT.
Gossip Says That Cleveland May Ex.
 change ROssman.

n6O AtuSSIlaHs
 From Detroit comes a report that Claude Rossman, first baseman for the Cleveland club and one time idol or the Holyoke base ball fans, is like " to be traded by the Maps to Man. ager Hugh Jennings of Detroit. \ First base is the one spot that Man. ager Jennings want to strengthen at Detroit. Chris Lindsay has not dem- onstrated that he is a first-class man and Jennings has had enough of Buster" Brown, the recruit from Newark.
 As result of the situation. Jen- nings has been looking the field over Tn view of securing the proper man and a few days ago stated that he was after the first big league sacker who he though would fill the bill. Just who 1t can be is a puzzle, but as Cleveland has three men capable Of covering the initial sack, Stoyall. Rossman and Hinchman, it is thought that he is considering one of the trio. favoring Rossman. The Cleveland club of!cials are about as talkatiye as an oyster when such a trade or deal is discussed.

THE GRIDIRON
GREAT CONTESTS
 TOMORROW
Some of the Game. Ought to
 Be Corkers Ready For Sunday.

The football schedule for tO-mOr. row is such that an enthusiast of the gridiron will await the result of the contests with impatience. The most important game in the eyes of those endeavoring to get line on Yale
 Harvard and Princeton Is the battle which will be waged between the Tigers and West Point. Although the Princeton eleven is supposed to be the strongest that has represented :, the university since 1896, the Army team this season is such that it is capable of making stubborn fight regardless of its opponent. As West Point was defeated 50 by Harvard and 10-6 by Yale, there are many who think that Princeton, which now looks very strong, will defeat the West Point team by larger score. But anyone is foolish to bet that the Princeton eleven will defeat the soldier boys decisively as the West Point eleven is certain to fight tomorrow as it has never fought be- fore this season. The eleven is in very good condition and there is no reason why it should not make all most as interesting for the Tigers as 1t did for Yale and Harvard.
 The second game of to-day for per- sons taking any stock in scores made against a common opponent will be the Yale-Brown contest. Last Sat- urday the Browns played Har- yard almost to standstill and were defeated by the score of only to g.. The Yale admirers expect the blue to at least surpass Harvard's score and 1t seems as though the team would do so, although there is no telling. The practice of Yale during the week has been good and the condition Of the squad is much better than it was on last Saturday, when Yale was poorer than at any other time dur ing the season.
 Harvard will have its hands full tomorrow when it opposes the In- dians who have been playing first class article of football in recent games. The overwhelming victory of the redskins over Pennsylvania has boomed the stock of the team and their followers expect them to give Harvard the hardest run it has had this season.
 Pennsylvania, after a rest Or two weeks, will meet Lafayette. The Quakers have showed big reversal of form and are now putting up a slambang article of football. The defeat of the Penn team by the In'-' dians seems to have had the desired effect and the coaches are confident that their eleven will make an ex- cellent showing from now on.
 Amherst locks horns with Dart mouth. and because of the latter's poor showing against Princeton week ago. the Amherst eleven has hopes of victory.
