New York, Feb. 13,.—Team owners BROUGHT FINISH OF BOXING AT CHICAGO. Faked Bout Between Terry McGovern " and Joe Gans Aroused Storm of Op- pesition to the Sport. Terry MaGovern—Terrible Terry— and Jo> Gans were to meet at Tatter- sall's in Chicago in a six round bout That was long enough ago so that one may say ycars hdve elapsed. On State streot and on Clark street powerful searcilights indicated the cormer at which the fight fans should get off the street cars and poured a deluge of llght on the crowd that jostled and struggled toward the building in which the ring was pitched, says the Chi- cago Post. McGovern was at thé top of his ca- reer. Gans, one of the craftiest fight- ers that ever entered the ring, was at his best. Properly enough, the negro looked on paper to be the better man, but he did not inspire confidence, for his reputation as a crooked fighter at that time was equal to his fame for cleverness as a boxer. “When the match was made Gans be- came favorite at odds of"2 to 1. He looked like a cinch, and even up to o'clock 'in the afternoon of the day of battle he was popular choice. Then, however, the rumor got abroad that the fight was fixed. Late in the after- nocn an official of the club which con- ducted the bout advised a sporting writer not to bet on Gans. Abeut the same time news reached the manage- ment of the club that negroes on the South Side were betting their last dol- lar on' McGovern to win. Gans had trained on the South Side. His quarters were situated over a sa- Joon run by Harry Forbes, twe bantam boxer, who recently returned to the ring. For a week. before the fight a num- ber of sporting writers had been sus- picious of the bout. Gans was not training honestly.. He was out at night dissipating and was doing le work. He would not allow anyone to see him get upon the scales, and when he en- tered the ring he was hog fat. Now,all this had leaked out, bit by bit, and it was not surprisi: there- fore, ‘that the wise fight fan the throng that crowded toward T 3 sall's beneath the glare of the s lights hinted to one another that the battle would be a gigantic fake. In-| side the building suspicion spread like | a prairie fire. Men who had bet on Gans fidgeted and hegan to figure on the chance to hed From 2 1 on Gans the odds shifted to even money before the contestants for the first pre liminary entered the ring. | The rumors of a fake had been re-, ceived with alarm by the nmm'**’l'? of the club. secure a snorting writers to of the fight in conne e, George Siler.
