 Last Night.
 pr Ordway, the American represen- tative of the National Sporting club, London, yesterday received q dispatch from sam Harris, McGovern's man. ager, which indicates that the feather weight champion is not over anxious to go to England and meet Ben Jordan after all. Harris says that Terry will only entertain q match with the Eng Iishman provided the National club of fers q purse of 5000. He also refers to the offer ofTAatchma aker Abrahams of the New Adelphi club. Harris says nothing is known of that club in this country. while the National Sport ing club is well established. Ordway mailed Harris q letter in which he said he would inform his club of his de- mands. Ii is not likely that the Eng fish club will give McGoyern that much money. When Matchmaker Bet tinson was in this cOunetry with Ped lar Palmer last year Harris promised to give the National management the preference any time Terry made up his mind to g5 abroad. The club. it is understood. does not like the treat mPnt which Harris and McGoYern has accorded Dr OTdway in the way of appointments. and it would not be sur prisng if the foreign institution re- scinded it's offer of $3. 300 for q contest between the Brooklyn boy and Jordan and refuse to have anything to do with McGovern. Jordan says he is dis@usted with McGovern's actions. He declares that he travelled 5000 miles to meet Terry, but when he ar rived in America McGOvern waved him aside in favor of his theatrical en- @aGementS.
