WON IN THE FIFTEENTH
McGovern Keeps Dave Sullivan on
the Defensive From the
.... Start.

Dave Sullivan was knocked out by Terry
McGovern Saturday night at Louisville In
the fifteenth round of as desperate a
game Of fsticuffs as was ever seen in
any ring. Realizing that his chance of
remaining in the front rank Of fighters
depended on his showing with Sullivan,
McGovern forced the fight from the start.
He was ever on the aggressive, and Sui
livan was forced to assume the defensive
throughout. The vanquished fighter put
up wonderful defense and for a time
victory seemed within his grasp.
In the fifth round he hammered Nc
Govern numerically and Terrible Ter
unsteadily to his seat at the tap Of the
gong. His wonderful recuperative powers
alone saved him, and from then on he had
q shade the best of it, although the result
was quite in doubt almost to the moment
OF the knockout. During the twelfth,
thirteenth and fourteenth rounds, Sulli-
van was plainly on the go, McGovern
being at him like a wildcat every instant
Forcing Sullivan into a neutral corner in
the fifteenth, Terry landed a storm Of
left and right blows, and catching Sullt-
van with the left, squarely on the jaw,
put him to grass. Sullivan was up like
a flash, but did not get higher than his
knees. AS FitZsimmons counted nine,
Sullivan again attempted to rise, but a

Govern went at him again and down he
went. He was then declared out.
Sullivan attempted to question the de-
cision. but ,Fitzsimmons would not listen
to him.
cit was the greatest battle of little men
I ever saw said FitZsimmons; "McGov-
ern is certainly a wonderful fighter, but
he has great deal yet to learn
McGovern conceded that it was the
hardest fight he ever fought, and that Sui
Ivan was the toughest proposition he was
ever I'D against.

SEARCHING FOR TIMBER
w1LMor LOOKING FOR PLAYERS
He Will 60 East This Week-The
Men He Has Already
~
Signed.

Walter Wilmot will leave for the east
some day this week to sign players for his
Minneapolis team in the American ass Ocia-
ton He realizes that he is in some very
fast company and that no ordinary
"bush'' league players will fill the popular
demand in Minneapolis, so he is going right
into the National league where he ex-
poets to get five first class men, as he is
in close communion with three National
league teams.
The players signed up to date by Mana
ger Wilmot are as follows: Theodore
CzaperdewslSi, better known as Young
COrbett, for his strength and his Wender
fully swift ball; Fred Luther, one Of the
star tWirlers of the champion Grand
Rapids club; Jack Morrison, a promising
pitcher from LIE Sueur; w. H. (Dad)
Clark, who says there is still some twirl-
ing in his arm; Perry Werden, the most
popular player who ever wore a Mime
apolis uniform; James Norvarek, an anna
teur catcher of much promise; Lee Quill
Ian of Saltwater, a speedy youth and a
good batsman; Elmer DOtson Of Sanborn,
Mimi, fleet outfielder. Morrison, Quill
Ian, Norvarek and Dotson are presumably
signed simply for trial.
Wilmot expects to get Claude McFar-
lane to help him in the outfield, old relia-
BILE George Germany" Smith for short
stop and Charley Rice, one of the fastest
intlelders ever seen in this city. Luther,
McFarlane and Smith helped Wilmot land
the penant in the Western association
last season. : He says that he never saw
Smith play faster ball than he did last
year and he never missed a game during
the season. .E --es.- ,.

SAVAGE IS SAVAGE
Governor of Nebraska Retaliates on
Newspaper Men.
NO MORE NEWS TOBE GIVEN OUT
The Barley Pardon and Removal of
Alderman Responsible for
Present Trouble.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Lincoln, Neb., Feb. 24.-For the second
time in the history of Nebraska state
officer has placed under the ban the repre-
sentatives of the press. Governor Savage
has Instructed the clerical force in the
executive office to give out no more infor-
nation to reporters. This action followed
the bitter attack made on the governor by
the press on account of the pardon of
defaulting ex-State Treasurer Joseph
Barley ~
In 1899 newspaper men were barred
from the Office Of Auditor Cornell, popu-
list, who was smarting under the caustic
criticisms of the republican dailies. The
order lasted two days. The mischievous
reporters printed so much mis-informa-
tion concerning the affairs of the office
that special telephone clerk was needed
and the auditor, almost distracted, hast
ened to withdraw the ban.
Two incidents of recent occurrence
caused the action Of the governor. The
fferceness of the editorial comment on the
BARLEY pardon surprised him and he
failed to grasp it's true import. At first
he was angered. Then he conceived the
idea of sending each editor letter in
viting him to drop into the executive Of
fee for heart to heart talk.
Editors did not flock from the rural dis
tricts to the capital to debate with Gov
ernor Savage. Instead they printed sar-
castle re5oinders, answering the connnu-
nication through the columns of their
papers. The result was decidedly dis
heartening.
Recently Governor Savage interfered In
the Cunning county factional fight, remov-
ing Frank Alderman, politician of one
clique from the Office of deputy oil in
spector and putting in his place Fred
Sonnenschetn, another politician pretty
much embroiled in the local fight in that
region. Editorial comment on this action
was venomous in the extreme and as a
result most of the few friendly papers de-
serted the Savage standard
Members of Governor Savage's official
family deny that a ban has been placed
on reporters. Just the same there Is not
a single item transmitted to the press
through the regular channels.

AFTER BIG TOURNAMENT
Western Golfers Want u. s. Golf As

Supported solidly by western golfers,
represe ntatives Of the four associate golf
clubs of Chicago will leave for New York
this evening to attend the annual meet
ing of the United States Golf association
at Delmonico's Thursday evening". The

the exception Of the St. Louis Country
club all western clubs want to see the
honor awarded the Glen View of Chicago.

withholding the event from the west an
other year in order to take in the tour
nament of the Glen Echo club Of St. Louis
during the 1903 exposition, at the same
time. ~.g..-.' >'
There are twenty-six clubs in the as
sociation, each being entitled to two votes

tion in receptive mood and unpledged,
as now seems likely, it 1T believed that
the business of the vests claim for the
amateur event will be recognized.
Friends of the 1853 allied clubs in the
association will make strong attempt to
secure the voting privilege. Although
they pay $25 year for membership the
only return they get from their dues is
the right to have their members play IN
the championship-thi in spite of the
fact that they pay 81 200 into the treasury
as against $4,000 of the twenty six asso-
ciate clubs. -' 81.

Col. Frank Churchill who re-

system in the Indian territory, is
strong in his praises Of the public
school of Viniia. In a conversa-

Churchill said that the Vinita
school, was typical of the sch ools
that he sought to have established
under bis plan. He referred TO ii
as the banner school of the terri
tory. and said that if his proposed
system was accepted, he expected
to see similar schools established
throughout the territory.

there would be bitter opposition
