FIGHTS IND FIGHTERS
Terry McGovern Will Meet Jack
 Roberts of England

The Battle Will Be Fought in Noyem-
 Der at 126 Pounds Young Corbett
 and Artie Simms Next-Hart and Hanrahan to Meet Tn Louisville
 Jack O'Brien Getting Great Recep-
 ton Abroad.
 It was settled yesterday that Terry McGovern's next opponent will be Jack Roberts, the English featherweight champion Sam Fitzpatrick, who will have charge of Roberts's affairs in America, met sam Harris at the Brigh- ton Beach racetrack during the after noon It did not take them long to agree upon terms and a match was speedily ratified.
 Fitzpatrick showed Harris a letter which he received few days ago from Roberts authorizing him to secure Me Govern as his first American oppon- ent Fitzpatrick declared that the Eng lishman was ready to meet the feather weight champion at 126 pounds, weigh in at o'clock on the day of the com bat.
 'sThat will suit us," replied Harris, 'and you can consider the fight clinch- ed as far as McGovern is concerned" The following conditions were agreed to: The encounter is not to be decid- ed earlier or later than November, the club hanging up the biggest purse to get the. battle which is limited to twenty rounds. The match shall stand open thirty days from yesterday and all bids must be forwarded to Al Smith, the final stakeholder.
 Charlie White, the well-known referee, made an offer for the fray, acting on behalf of Bill Crowley of the Nutmeg A. c. of Hartford. White said that the club would give liberal per- centage of the gate receipts. After the match was made Fitzpat- rick said: Roberts will sail for this country about September 8, as he wish es to become acclimated. He will be accompanied by wealthy English sportsman, who will stand to lose quite sum on Roberts. In a letter to me Roberts says he can secure backing for 5000 or $10.000. As it is a yio- lation of the law to have any side bets most of his money will be wager ed at the ring side. Roberts will go lO IO lIetlll III SSlSC LIC lulll takes place in the east.o
 Harris says that McGovern will be- gin work in a light way in about a month. The little champion has not done any training since his encounter with Aurelia Herrera at Frisco. As he is always in fair condition he will not have much trouble in getting into | fighting trim. Both Fitzpatrick and Harris went over to New Jersey last night and signed the articles There was no mention in the papers regard | ing the referee. This matter will be discussed and acted upon in a few days.
 The Englishman is said to box on the same, rushing style as McGovern. l Fitzpatrick. who has witnessed many scraps in which Roberts has figured, thinks that the foreigner will prove a surprise. Besides being a glutton for punishment, Sam says that Roberts is quite a puncher. The battle will not be for the featherweight title, as it is said that McGoyern cannot reduce to 122 pounds again and remain strong.

o'BRIEN IN IRELAND.

Jack O'Brien of Philadelphia is evil dently very popular on the other side. Recently the American visited Drap- erstown, County Derry, Ireland, the birthplace of his parents. Upon his ar rival the townspeople turned out in large numbers and after welcoming O'Brien presented an illuminated ad- dress in massive gilt frame to him. The gift was from the members and patrons of the Ballinascreen Celtic Athletic club. The address was signed by some of the most influential sports men of the North of Ireland.

coRRETT AND sIMMs.

Young Corbett has been very much in demand since he defeated Kid Broad. He has received many chal- lenges during the past week and has concluded to meet Artie Simms, the Ohio lightweight. Simms's manager, who is at Buffalo. said that before he left Denver in company with Broad he secured Corbett's consent to meet Simms, and that the two are to box at Denver before the Colorado Athletic association the latter part of this month. The battle is for ten rounds at catchweights Corbett is also anxious to fight Terry McGoyern. His wish may be gratified after McGovern's fight with Jack Roberts.

Monday. The game will be called at 5 o'clock as the Hartfords deAire to catch the 5:52 express for Montreal The New Haven. Register says the game ought to bring out the biggest crowd of the season. The team that will play at Sayin Rock is a little diff ferent than the one that played Bristol so if New Haven is badly beaten the State leaguers should not feel bad. Providence was able to get two runs in three games and according to this rate New Haven ought to get run in about a week.
 Enraged by some decisions given in favor of Rochester at Wednesdays ball game at Toronto a mob of 1OO persons waited at the gate until Um- pire Warner made his appearance. He was greeted with a volley of stones and clods of earth. Linden, another umpire, who was with Warner, was struck ill the face by a stone, which severely injured him. Two policemen went to Warmers rescue and escorted him to his car. Mrs Warner, who was with her husband, faced the mob and effectively wielded her sunshade in the melee. This is the second time Warner has been mobbed at Toronto this season.
 OdQldln lOOh PitShCA named McNamara to Brockton with him. He thought that if Brockton tried to work any double-headers on him he wouldn't be caught mapping. McNamara is one of President Soby's finds. He has been pitching for New London. McNamara says that MT Soby hired him early in the season but could not use him then. He told Mir Soby that he wanted to earn living and the Hartford president told him to go ahead and do what he could and when he was needed he would be notified. McNamara received word while he was in Bridgeport that he was wanted. Manager Shea of New London offered inducements for Me Namara to stay with him but he could not resist the temptation to belong 10 the Hartford club.
