YOUNG OTTO FAST.

New York, Dec 7.-Young Otto demonstrated at the session or the Long Acre club last nigh. that he still has the knockout wa;lop. For the edification of the members of tho club he put Jack Sinnott away in the second round of what was to have been a three-round exhibition.
 Sinnott was not altogether satis- fled and insisted that he be given an opportunity to fight the other round and Otto promptly ut him away again.
 The manner in which this young ster has been going along for some item now makes 1t appear that there is a chance for him among the top notchers, and an effort is being made to secure him a match Of more fr- portance than any that could be held in New York.
 In all there were six contests dur ing the session, and each was a slashing good one. For wind-un there was a six round go between Howard Smith and Kid Stihger oi Philadelphia.
 For five rounds the Kid did most of the work, when Smith came back with a rally in the last round and about evened up matters. On sev' eral occasions during the bout Rei' cree Pollok cautioned Stinger for hit ting low. Johnny Moran had rather the bet ter of Owney Flynn in six rounds nl fast fighting. and this was The semi wind-up of the affair.

THE PUGiLISTS' M'COVERN IS
 SPIRITED AWAY Hi. Friend. Will Take Good Care of Him Johnson Makes .
 Proposition.

New York, Dec 7.-Late last night Terry McGovern was taken from the Kings county hospital, where he has been confined undergoing an exam ination into his sanity. In the ca.- riage, with him were his wife, his step-father, Kenny, and doctor from the hospital.
 It was not definitely known just where his destination is, but it was intimated that he was taken to q sanitarium in Connecticut in which he was once before confined.
 The little fighter was in very d. pressed state Wednesday night and all day yesterday, and from the vio- lence of Tuesday he mad changed 10 grief and tears. He made no Objec, tion to leaving the hospital and quiet ly entered the carriage when asked to do so by his wife.
 Mrs McGovern still insists that rest and isolation from all chances fos dissipation will bring him back to mental soundness, and she looks for ward to his spending Christmas at home.
 It is entirely possible that the move from the hospital was on the advice of Sam Harris, who is coming from Cincinnati to look after his protege. | This theory has some g"ound fol belief in the following dispatch: 1 Cincinnati, Dec 7.-Sam Harris i theatrical manager, once a developer of pugilists, came to Cincinnati yes ! terday to see how the advance sale of George M. Cohan's engagement iF progressing, but hurried back eas' after spending only an hour here.
 "Tm leaving for New York thI afternoon" said Harris, "and as soor as l get there I'm going to4ook aftel Terry McGoyern. I could not sleer ! last night for thinking of what migh' i be happening to him with me away ! Gee! but he was a great little pal and there isn't anything in the worlt
 that I wouldn't do for bim. Tn 1 going to see just how he's fixed.
 If he can be moved from th'
 sanitarium, where he Is said to bt
 confined, I'll take him home witl
 me, get couple of good nurses tt take care of him, and if such thins is possible I'll have him brough | back to health and strength, no mat

FOOTBALL FIGURES.
Attendance 1t Football Games Thii
 Year Greater Than Ever.

xeer 0reater Tna1 Gver.
 At least one desired effect has been accomplished by the new foot ball rules, and that was the increas- ing of the attendance at the games. The public has shown approval of the new rules, and next year the game should draw bigger crowds, as the football lovers have learned more about the game and can see the plays better, mass plays having been eliminated to degree.
 The attendance at nineteen games was secured and from this the esti- mate was made. In these nineteen games there were over bO0,000 peo- pie present. If 1t were possible to get the figures in several other games, such as the Yale-Brown, liar vard-Brown and Pennsylvania-La- fayette games there is no doubt but what the attendance would have av- eraged more.
 Following is the attendance at the nineteen games in which the atten- dance was secured:
 Pennsylvania-Swarthmore, 5000; Pennsylvania Brown. 6,000; Prince ton-Bucknell, 4,000; Princeton-C Cor nell, 20,000; Pennsylvania-I Indians, 18,000; Yale-Amherst, 5000; Prince ton-Dartmouth, 5000; Yale-West Point, 5000; Harvard-Indians, 2S,- 900; Pennsylvania-Michigan, 16,- 900; Yale-Princeton, 25,000; Minne- sota-1ndians, 30,000; Harvard Yale, 35,0O0; Chicago-Minnesota, 10000; Brown-Dartmouth, 10000; Harvard. West Point, 5000; Princeton-West Point, 5000; Pennsylvania-Cornell, t20,000; Army-Navy, 10000.

 The Georget brothers, the French champions, who are detained on Eliis Island to be seen If they are suffering from an eye disease, trachoma (biker's bum lamp), will not be able to train and they may be prevented from racing.

If. however, they have only an ordinary disease of the eyes. which can be cured. they will be al lowed to land" The trouble with their eyes. the riders say, is due en- tirely to their training on an in door track in Paris.
