McGOVern Has Received an Offer
From Palmer.
To Fight in England For a
Purse of $4,000.
TERRY WILL ACCEPT.
Since His Ring Debut Has Won
All His Battles.
Has a Hard Proposition In Gin
cinnati Tonight.
TERRY WILL ACCEPT.

Cincinnati, Dec. 1s.-The National
Sporting club of London (England),
through its representative, +. A. Bettin-
son, has written to Sam Harris, man
ager of Terry McGovern, Offering a
purse of "a 900 for twenty-five round
contest with Pedlar Palmer, on Derby
Day next year.
Manager Harris is in the city at pres
ent making arrangements for the Nc
Govern contest at Robinson's opera
house tonight When asked concern
ing the offer, Mr.. Harris said: Il ex-
pect to take McGOvern abroad next
year, and will probably match him to
fight at the National Sporting club
However, L do not want to take him TO
England for the special purpose OF
fighting Palmer only. McGOvern wants
to geta chance at Ben Jordan While IN
England. Terry has already shown
that he is Palmer's master, and he is
now after Jordan. If we can get both
of them we will agree to the National
Sporting clubs terms
Before McGOvern sails, however, he
viii have several hard contracts to dis
pose of. Tonight he is to meet two men
in the same ring and expects to beat
the pair before the limit has been
reached in either bout. The principals,
''F'reckles'' O'Brien and Charley
Mason, are scheduled to go ten rounds
each with the young BrOOklynite. San
try is booked to meet McGOvern jan
uary 20.
A week from next Friday night he
will take on Harry Forbes for twenty
rounds at the Broadway club. Forbes,
although clever boxer, is not expected
to go the limit with the champion The
hardest game the young Brooklynite
will have to tackle is Dixon, whom he
will meet at the Broadway club Jan
uary 8.
Since his debut in the ring Nc
Govern has won all his battles in a de-
cisive manner. He has never even re-
ceived as much as a scratch Of any
kind in his many fights, and is truly
entitled to the Sobriquiet of "F1ghUng
Terry" Tonight he will have a difh-
cult task before him, as both men he
meets are pounds heavier, and any one
will agree that it is a big handicap for
a little fellow to take on men Weighing
in the neighborhood of 126 pounds and
beat them decisively. Charles Mason
fights at 126 pounds.
Mason is not as big as was an
nOunced when the match was first Sc
cured. Mason weighs about 126 pounds
when out of training, but has been
His record in Chicago stamps him as a
dangerous man for anybody For the
last year he has had to fight men in the
middleWeight class, none of the local
feather weights caring to take
chance with him. While he has lost
two or three decisions in some 60 bat
ties he has never been knocked out,
and the only verdicts against him were
on points of the hairline order, and IN
favor of much bigger men.
Frecl1les O'Brien, the other yOungster,
is we'll known locally. Freckles has
been on his good behavior for the past
three months, and since leaving Gin

HANNA WILL RULE.
Generally Conceded That He Will Re
main at Committee Head.

Washington, Dec. 18-It is generally
conceded that Senator Hanna, regard
less of reports to the contrary, will re-
main at the head of the national Re
publican committee. The generous ap-
plause which Senator Depew provoked
by his glowing tribute to Mark Hanna
as q political manager in the speech
made to the national committee is be-
ing freely commented upon as a sign
Of Importance. It is taken by nearly
everybody to mean the reelection of
Senator Hanna as chairman of the
committee to manage Mr.. Mckinley s
campaign next year. The chief import
ance of Senator Depew's tribute lies in
the probability that he eulOgfzed Mr..
Hanna at the suggestion of the presi-
dent, mainly for the purpose of testing
the sentiments of the committeeman
and Republicans generally on the sub
ject of Hanna as the campaign man
ager. The spontaneous Outburst of ap-
plause which followed the Depew
eulOgy has convinced nearly everybody
that Mr.. Hanna is not as unpopular,
at least with the Republican managers,
as the harsh criticisms of him during
the recent Ohio campaign seemed to ia
dicate. With this evidence of Mr.
Hanna's popularity the president is
now free to ask his old time friend to
again resume the managerial reins.

but prominent members of the New. York,
LarchmOnt and Atlantic Yacht clubs ad-
mitted that they had heard of the re-
ports.
Mr.. Morgan was not at his office and
could not be seen at his house owing to a
cold or some indispositon. Mr.. Morgan
gave the site for the home of the
New York Yacht club, gift the value of
which is said to be over $500 900 The prin
cipal part of the cost, of building and run
ming the cup defender of 1899 was met by
Mr.. Morgan. Besides this, he paid the ex-
penses of the yacht defender, which was
lent by w. K. Vanderbilt TO be ,used. as
a speed companion for the Columbia The
outlay was extremely heavy.
Mr.. Morgan had the new steam yacht
COrsair built last winter largely in order
that the New York Yacht club might
have a flagship that would be in keeping
with the dignity of the representative
yacht club Of America. It has been ru-
mOred among yachtsmen that the eXpen-
diture on the COrSair and it's crew, with
cost Of entertainments on board, has
amounted to nearly $3.50, 900 and that the
commodore's yachting outlay. including
the COrsair. the COluTnbit, the cluiy> Juse
site and others matters has reached a
total not far from $1000,O00.

Mines Given to a Woman.

Syracuse. n. Y. Dec. 1S.-After years
of expensive litigation, Mrs. Mary D.
Grace, principal of the Tompkins
school, has become the virtual owner
Of the rich Incas, San Marcos and Bis
marck silver mines in the state of
Durango, Mexico. The supreme court
of Durango has just made a decision
restoring to her the almost entire own
ership of the properties. The mines are
situated near the village of NOmbrede
DiOs, almost 500 miles north of the City
of Mexico, and are estimated to be
worth about $50, 900, 900. A recent ex-
ploration of the shafts and tunnels
shows there is about S12, 600, 900 in
sight. Mrs. Grace was for about fif-
teen years a resident of San Francisco,
Cal About the year 1881 or 1882 she,
with e. few other Americans, acquired
the property by purchase, the fee sim
pie resting in them. With the develop
ment of the property dishonest men
saw fabulous fortunes in the property
and conspired to become the sole own
ers of it. Mrs. Grace refused to lease
the mines to these men and thereupOn
they went before a local judge with
what purpOrted to be articles of incor-
poration and secured an order dispOs-
sessing Mrs. Grace and giving them
possession. That was four years ago.
Now the property is returned to its
rightful owners.

Kansas City, Dec 1S.--At a meeting Of
the University Medical college football
team c. G. Toland was unanimously
elected captain for the ensuing year. To
land made very brilliant record as full
back on the University of Colorado in
1861. before entering the University
Medical college and in his games with the
Medics this year against Nebraska state
university, he particularly distinguished
himself by his savage line bucking. To-
land is a man who will make every effort
to make the team a success next year,
and is a worthy successor of the Mighty
Heller.
The past season has been a very sue
cessful one to the Medics and prospects
for the coming year are good although
several of the old stars graduate. Those
who 60 out are: Heller, Wyatt, Baum,
Hill, WysOng, Cowden and Castle. How
ever, there is still a number of exper-
fenced players who will form q nucleus

DYNAMITE IN A BAG.
Careless italian Imperils Lives 0
Hundreds in New York.

New York, Dec. 18.-Sando Pasquale,
in Italian employed by the New York
Telephone company to do blasting,
boarded a trolley car bound for Mount
Vernon at williams Bridge this morn
ing He had a large feed bag. which
he held in his lap until he reached
Mount Vernon, where he went into the
crowded waiting room and dropped 1t
carelessly on the floor. PatrOlman At
we'll, seeing the Italian get off the car,
and thinking that he might be one of
the lead pipe thieves who have been at
work in Westchester county, tapped the
bag with his club to see what it con-
tanned There was a suspicious rattle,
and as the man appeared to be badly
frightened, the officer thought there was
no doubt about his guilt and marched
him to the police station.
Sergeant Devaugh and PatrOlman
Atwell were Mortified to find nearly 100
pounds of dynamite, with caps and
other explosives in the bag. Pasquale
was arraigned before City Judge
Schalz on the charge of violating the
city ordinance in carrying explosives
without a permit Judge Schalz fined
him 800 or 100 days in jail.
TT is extremely fortunate that the
officer happened to strike a spot with
his club" said the judge, that did not
produce an explosion. I am only sorry
that the law does not permit me to fine
you $500 instead of 800 for such care
lessness." The prisoner paid his fine,
and the police turned the dynamite
over to a local contractor, with instruc-
tions to take it 20 a place of safety as
soon as possible.

LIVELY SCENE
In the Bartbo'di Hotel over the Cir
cult Changes.

New York. Dec. 1s.-Roon 81, Bartholdi
hotel. was the scene of a stormy session
Friday night that may result in killing
the plans for circuit reduction. FTank
De Haas Robson of the St. Louis and
Cleveland clubs and Abel, Ebbitts and
HanIOn of Brooklyn, met in secret session
in the BarthOIdi after the adjournment
at the Fifth avenue and discussed the
perplexed situation until early morning
Hanlon said that the Baltmore-B Brooklyn
owners were willing to make terms by
which the Baltimore franchise could be
purchased by the league, providing. the
Brooklyn club was granted the privilege
of having the first pick of the Baltimore
players for the Brooklyn club.
Robson. who appears to have gr1ev-
ance against the ruling powers, seemed to
be willing to sell the Cleveland club for
a certain sum, to be paid on the install
ment plan or on prOmissOry notes. But
it was evident that somebody among the
powers. presumably SOden or Freedman
or perhaps both. refused to agree to the
terms of both Robson and the Brooklyn
people.

timOre and Cleveland people are willing
to sell. If their terms are accepted BaItl-

cleus of Ban JOhusOn's American league

faction viii put up the coin is another
