BAT IS WILLING.

San Francisco, Sept. Eft induce
ments are sufficient I'm willing to can
eel some of my theatrical engagements
and take on Mcfarland before Coffroth's
club this year"
This announcement. made by Battling
Nelson, who is now preparing to start
for Chicago, leads many here to think
that a bout between the two Chicago
meen on the coast is possibility of
this fall or winter instead of being
a chance of next spring.
"Coffroth wants US to meet at forty
five rounds" said Nelson, and this
suits me perfectly. But some definite
contract will have to be made where
by we are guaranteed a large purse,
as my theatrical contracts average a
big sum every week. To call off even a
month of them would mean a heavy
loss OF course, if a purse was in sight
I'd rather fight for it. as theatrical
stunts won't run away"

KICK FROM ToLESToN.

To Sporting Editor THE TINES:
The baseball game between the Toll
lesion team and Black Oak was forfeit
by the Black Oak team 9 to 0. The
score was 6 to in the ninth inning
when the umpire called one of the Toll
lesion players safe on second base and
the Black Oak team kicked and the UNI
pire gave Tolleston the game. This
put the unruly rooters on the warpath
and a fist fight followed between some
of the rooters. This is the second game
that the Black Oaks have forfeit, the
first to the Hammond Hubs and the
second to ToIleston. This is not gen
tlemanly baseball. Tolleston.
