IincOIn Batting Order

Manager Fox was unable last night
to state who his pitcher would be for
the opening game. 1t is thought,
however. that Johnson will be select
ed for the honor. Johnson is a Win
nebago Indian and weighs above the
200 mark. If Johnson doesn't take the
burden, It will probably fall to the lot
OF Johnny Jones. Both are in good
form.

VICTORY FOR JEFFRIEs.,
So Says Jim Corbett in Talking OF
Match With johnson.

New York, April 2s.-Jim Corbett
does not see how Jack Johnson has
any chance to defeat Jeffries.
II can't say how long it will take
for Jeffries to knock Johnson out, -
said Corbett, "for that depends how
long it will take Jeffries to catch him.
Johnson may stand still with other
fighters, but when he sees the big
bear coming for him hem run so fast
he will burn his shoes. Jeffries is all
right
Corbett said he thought Ketchel
had a good chance with Johnson.

The carriages have been ordered to
report at the Throop hotel at 1870
tomorrow afternoon. The parade
headed by the band will form as soon
after that as possible and VIII follow
the route already decided upon. IL
will take some time for the parade to

cradle time. Governor Stubbs ana
Mayor Green will head the parade,
and the band will be near the front
end of the procession.
Governor Stubs has consented to
hurl the first ball over the plate and
Mayor Green will stop it. The mayor
has twice attempted to pitch, but his
efforts have led Manager Cooley to
believe that he could at least do lit
tie better behind the plate. Both
points of the battery belong to the
same political faith and on this &C
count it is believed Pitcher Stubs will
throw whatever Catcher Green calls
for, and will also refrain from using
any amount of speed that would tend
