CLARKIN PAYS FINE.
President Tracy Says Disputed Game
 Goes to New London.

President W. J. Tracy.and Supervi. sor Kennedy of the Conn. leagus were spectators at the Holyoke. Springfield game on Hampden park Springfield yesterday. and President Tracy took the opportunity to get rid of bunch of money which has been accumulating ln his possession. He handed it over to Fred winkler of the Holyoke club with instructions that 1t be turned into P. H. Prindiville treasurer of the league.
 One item that went with the money was that s25 of 1t was in payment oi fine imposed on Manager J. H. Clarkin of the Hartford team for re- fusing to allow Hugh Rorty to um- pire game on the grounds In Hart ford recently. The game was with New London and President Tracy states that 1t stands as a forfeit to the Whalers. It has been claimed in Hartford that such a forfeit would not stand on the ground that Man. ager Clarkin had received some as- surance that Rorty would not be as signed to any more games in Hart ford. President Tracy says Manager Clsrkin paid the fine promptly.
 Mir Tracy stated that he had recefv- ed no complaint from Umpire Kelly over the trouble in which that onictaI and three of the Springfield players became involved in New Haven Non- day He said also that he doubts if he will receive such notice now that the season is nearly over. but he win not hesitate to act promptly if com plaint IS received The penalty would probably take the form of a fine. as there is 10 tine for a s1spe1zson-

THE PUGlLlSTS
READY FOR THE
 CHANG OF BELL
Johnson and Burke Are Fit as They Can Be and Ready For
 the Battle.

Sailor Burke, the fearless man of the ring, will meet Jack Johnson, the colored heavyweight giant, in a six round bout in Bridgeport Thursday night under the auspices of the Liber- ty Athletic club. The boxing match is attracting more attention among followers of the. ring game than any bout that has been offered in the east in long time.
 Sailor Burke has been training for month at Capt Bonds quarters in Strattord and he is in the finest phys- ical condition that it is possible to get young, robust and perfectly healthy human being. This means that Burke is fit to fight for his life and that is what he intends to do. This bout will probably be the fiercest fight that will be seen in long time, though it is scheduled for but six rounds. Burke appreciates the fact that he is not the~ clever man that Johnson is, and he also realizes that Johnson has about forty pounds the better of him in weight. But the Sailor is sure that he can hit as hard as Johnson, and is confident of his ability to rush through the colored mans defense and land one of his constitution destroyers. And the terrible earnestness of Burke has nearly everybody who mas seen him working at Bonds thinking the same thing. The question is whether Burke can break down the colored giants guard and land on him. If Burke can do this he has good chance to win. Burke hits as hard a blow as Bob Fitzsimmons ever did and it doesn't take more than four or five inches for his fist to go to land knockout. He is the most perfect natural fighting machine now in the ring, but he lacks the science. Now will the science of the negro giant or the bull rushing of the sailor man win? It's a debatable question, and opinion seems to be pretty evenly divided.
 Another feature of more than usual interest about this show of the Liber- ty Athletic club is that Young Cor bett and Terry McGovern, the once great rivals in the featherweight di- vision, will spar three friendly rounds. This will be the first time these little men of world wide fame have met in a. Connecticut ring since that famous Thanksgiving afternoon in Hartford, almost six years ago, when Corbett defeated McGovern for the featherweight title.
 There will also be two other six round bouts between fast little men.
 The show will be held in Smiths theater, where the tickets went on sale Monday morning. The prob abilities are that the house will be sold out before the night of the con- test. The prices are $1, $2, $3 and ,so.4.u4 E.JA- a-. 2.

 There is a great deal of mystery surrounding Jimmy Britt's broken arm" No physician has as yet stated that Britt's arm was really broken. Referee Welch's statement that he was no doctor" and couldn't tell positively about it is taken to mean that the injury was not as serious as Britt would have him be- lieve.
 Willus Britt yesterday talked knowingly about fractured bones, broken wrists" and "dislocated el- bows," but didn't produce a physi- cian's statement to the effect that Jimmy really had suffered a broken arm. Britt, who received his quietus in the fifth round, made a feeble bluff of continuing the fight, but it was all bluff. He was whipped and knew it when he went down, torn and bleeding, from Cans terrific bombardment.
 There was not a real blow struck after that. Britt stalled along for few minutes, but there was no fighting. He was done for.
 Britt was beaten so decisively that he must quit the ring.
 Cans is about $27,000 ahead on the fight, besides what he bet on himself, which is believed to be con- siderable
 The champion yesterday said:
 There never was a moment that did not know I had the fight won. Britt did not hurt me at all, and after the first round I knew that could block his body blows, with which he expected to do so much damage
 "I shall go to Los Angeles to- morrow to start training for the fight with Memsic on September 27. I expect to defeat him as easily as I would Britt. If feel as good af- ter that fight as I do now, will take on any man in the class"
 Jack Britton. of Chicago, was put on in Frank O'Brien's place with Mississippi, dangerous dusky gent. in the other corner. at the New York Consolidated A. C., last night. For ten rounds Britton jabbed his man relentlessly in the face. cut his lips, smashed his nose, closed one eye and had the other going. caulifiOwered his ears. but couldn't put him away. Mississippi was tearing in for more all the time. and many times 1t look ed as if he would wear BrittOn down and land his famous left or right. BTittOn, who is one of the clever est men on his feet seen in Elmer's ring, stuck to his knitting. pecked and pecaed away, sending over vallOp occasionally. but he couldn't floor his punishment-loving Oppoa- ent- BrittOn won on points.
 Billy Cameron and Dusty Miller went on for four rounds Tn the first both were knocked down and apparently out. but each came back and Waded in for more. It was s siHgfest for keeps. Finally Cameron connected with MiIler's jaw. aoored him and he was unable to get up at the count 1t was a rattling fight.
 Bill Hammond quit after Young Je1 had pounded him for three rounds Young Je1 wants to keep in the dark or some Tive one" viII trounoe him good some night.
