"I am pleased with the look? of the men that have so far reported for spring practica," said Manager Phillips last evening, after he had held a fanning bee with the Hoosier recruits in the baseball office, the weather making it impossible for any out-of-door practice. "The men who have reported for duty are in very good condition and I venture to say that by the time the championship season opens on April 20, the weather permitting, of course, our men will be in better condition to start the ball rolling than any team in the American Association. I was well Impressed with Jack Carr, the young player signed for third base. It 13 only necessary to look at him to tell that he 13 fast on the field. Carr was purchased by Indianapolis from Dubuque of the Three I League last fall and his last season's record shows that he should be capable of playing good ball for Indianapolis. "Allemang, of the pitching staff. 13 also tn Very good shape for this time of the year and I believe he will be one of the best men on the Iloosiers staff this season. The other players look to be ready for hard practice and as soon as we get a few warm days and the boys loosen up a bit we will Kettle down to hard work." Twelve members of the Hoosier squad have reported. In addition to those mention In the Journal yesterday morning the following reported yesterday: J. Foulkes, Guy Dickey, firstbaseman; C. Dunbar, pitcher; E. J. Harney, John Carr, O. C. Newlln. pitcher; A. O. Marshall and John L. Fisher. A number of those who have eo far reported are youngsters, but they will be given a good trial before released to another club. George Hogriever came to the city yesterday and called upon Manager Phillips. Hogriever was on his way to Indianapolis -while a letter was on its way to his home in "Wisconsin, notifying him to report. Phillips and Hogriever held a conference last evening, but Hogriever did not sign Ms contract. It i.s believed that he will affix his signature to a contract to-day or tomorrow and begin practice with the other members of the team. It Is expected that all of the members of the team will be here by to-night and if the grounds are In shape on Saturday afternoon the first exhibition game of the season will be played with the Duesseldorfers.

The contests promise to be the hardest ever seen here as the Central League players Insist that they play a faster game than the major league men.

Callahan is in the city practicing with the local team, but Manager Barnes, of Kokonio, has not released him. CHINESE ATHLETE ON FRESHMEN TEAM The Shortridge High School freshmen track team yesterday held its first try-outs to select the team to meet the sophomore team of the same school on April 9. The try-outs were not final, and were held merely to give Coach Geckler some Idea of the team's real strength. In the hurdles McCotter and Marsh showed up In good form. The former bids fair to make the regular track team when outdoor work is commenced. The 'varsity" Is weak in hurdlers, and the youngster's ability In this line proves a pleasant surprise. Adolph Darmody, the freshmen captain, may also make the school team In the sprints and quarter mile. Other lads who show much fTomise are Sah Klung, the Chinese athete.

More lies have been told about fly-fishing! how many, many anglers have returned to display good creels "and every fish taken on a fly, sir!" Yes, a fly with the hook tipped with worm. An angler's pleasure is to find out what the trout will take and then supply them. If it is a fly, well and good. It Is a clean and workmanlike manner of taking a trout. If they will not touch a fly, then perhaps a long cast w ith a cricket, or a moth, or a stone-fly, or gnat, or grasshopper, or even a beetle may raise the brooding fish. Perhaps he needs the sparkle of a spinner, perhaps the undulating coll of a humble "barnyard hackle," perhaps the ventral fin of a shiner or of his own kind, perhaps a frllvery strip of skin from the neck of a pullet." Or he may demand a minnow, or, alas! a mouse. This latter tidbit I have never been able to bring myself to use, except when artificial. And no doubt I have lost many a big trout by my sjutamlhnes; but when it comes to using the more highly organized creatures as lures. I revolt. Nothing ever dbgustcd me as much as the spectacle of a huge pike taken on a moor-hen. Often in August, when th water is several degrees better on the surface than on the bottom, trout seek the spring holes; and often nothing can induce them to rise through the strata of lukewarm water to take a surface fly. Then your cut-and-dried angler snlfTs, damns his luck, and goes home. Yet. a red fly sunk where, through Intimate knowledge of the bottom of the lake or river, the angler knows there I n spring, will bring the lurking trout sprincin: uy lth peculiar savagery.

FREDDIE COLE. He Will Meet Carsey in Six-round Semi- windup To-night. CORBETT STILL KICKING ODER GRAB'S DECISIQH Says Referee Did Not Act on the Square and Declares Britt Has No Punch. WILL MEET MOWATT Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CHICAGO, March 30. Young Corbett arrived in the city this morning from San Francisco. Corbett is strong in his denunciation of Referee Graney's decision and the official's attitude all through the battle. Britt, he sa3s, has no punch and never led until the champion opened up, when the Californian would counter, usually attacking his body. Corbett will meet Tommy Mowatt in a six-round bout before the Waverly Club Saturday night, in which George Siler will officiate as referee. Negotiations have also been opened for him to go to Milwaukee and meet Charlie Neary before the Milwaukee Boxing Club. "We think we've got something to kick about," said Corbett. "Graney did not act on the square. We were to fight straight Marquis of Queensbury rules, Just as I had fought llanlon. During the Hanlon fight Graney let us hit iu the clinches and when the crowd yelled to separate us he answered that the rules allowed us to fight that way. But he didn't do that In the Britt fight. As soon as we'd clinch and I'd get to beating his body Graney would cut in, ahd, holding my right arm. would force us to part, not letting me hit with both hands free. Britt didn't have a pound of steam in his punches and once in a rally I left mvself entirely uncovered and waded into him. He hit me several times on the Jaw, but never bothered me. He came out of his crouch a triile at times but never enough to let me get a straight blow at his face, and I found it impossible to connect with a vital spot. His crouch is not like Hanlon's. Britt turns sideways to his opponent and covers up with his arms, while Haulon faces you. Britt never takes the chances Hanlon does and the latter has more of a punch than Britt."

Charley McKeever, the Philadelphia middle weight boxer, telegraphed to the sporting editor of the Journal last night from Chicago that he will arrive In Indianapolis early this morning and will be in the best of condition for his bout with Hugo Kelly, which will be the ten-round wind up of a good card at the Auditorium to-night. McKeever put the finishing touches to his training in Chicago and it is safe to say that he has prepared himself for a fast contest, as he knows Kelly's ability from experience, having won a shade decision over him in Milwaukee last November. McKeever will be accompanied by Frank Carsey and their respective managers. Carsey Is to meet Freddie Cole in the six-round semi-wind up. Hugo Kelly completed his hard training yesterday by boxing several rounds with Freddie Cole and other local boys in the Apollo Club gymnasium. It rained too hard to permit of road work, but Kelly took off a little weight in the gymnasium. After his hard training he went to the Turkish bath and was weighed. He did not make his weight known, but said that he would be tinder the 158-pound limit when he weighed in at 3 o'clock this afternoon at Tylers. Kelly thinks very well of Cole, and says the little fellow has a good chance to go to the front. Cole has trained harder for his match with Carsey than for any previous contest and will easily be down to weight to-day. While the weight agreed on is 122 pounds, it is likely that Carsey will weigh in the neighborhood of 120, as he boxes faster at that weight than when he is a few pounds heavier. A victory over Carsey means much to Cole, as he is anxious to obtain matches with some of the topnotchers. More interest Is being taken in to-night's boxing show than any that has ever been given in this city. Many out-of-town orders for seats were received yesterday and the advance snle last night showed that the house will be crowded. Reserved seats will be on sale at Tyler's until 7 o'clock this evening. The programme for to-night follows:

Monk Enoch vs. Al O'Bannion, four rounds. Willie Parsons rounds. Freddie Cole rounds. vs. Kid Dalton, four vs. Frank Carsey, six Hugo Kelly vs. Charley McKeever, ten rounds. Itnln Ire vented Practice. The Shortridge baseball squad was prevented from practicing yesterday owing to the heavy rain, but it will resume the tryouts to-day, weather permitting. The members of the Shortridge board of control decided to give the members of the team hosiery, caps and new bats at a meeting held yesterday afternoon. Fohs Still In the Lead. PARIS, March 30.
