PUGISTS SGN TD MEET IN BIG BOUTS Boxing Game Opening Up All Over the Country—Fighters Start to Train for Bouts—McGovern Signs to Box Jimmy Briggsin Boston. MUNROE MEETS M’CORMICK IN PHILADELPHIA ON OCT. “Young Corbett’ and Tim Callahan to Meet Early in Changed for Fitz’s Contest with Coughlin---Ruhlin and Fitz to Box Out West. Busy days are these for the pugilistic fraternity. Matches with champions and ex-champions figuring as_ principals have been made during the last few days with great rapidity. One important match was made to-day between Terry McGovern ‘and Jimmy Briggs, the Boston feathzr-weight, and a date set for an- ‘other—the Munroe-McCormick match. Following on his other matches, Sam Harris acting for Terry Mc- Govern, has just closed another bout for the little Brooklynite. In the: ring of the Criterion A. C. of Boston Terry will meet Jimmy Briggs, the New England teather-weight, in a twelve-round contest on Oct. 7. The bout will give a new line on the relative merits of “Young Corbett” and McGovern. It will be remembered that recently the “Rocky ‘Mountain Kid” engaged Briggs in two ten-round bouts in Boston, but failed to put him away. He, however, had all the best of both contests, and failed in his object only through the clever sprinting abilities of his Boston foe. “Young Corbett” was matched last night to meet. ‘Tim Callahan in Phil- ‘a delphia during the first part of October, and has a fight pending with Dave Sullivan, to take place in Boston about the middle of October. Jack Munroe, the ex-miner, and Jack McCormick, who were matched Jest week, will meet before the Washington Sporting Club, of Philadelphia, on Oct. 5, Bids for the contest were left open until to-day, and many clubs sought the match. The Washjngtor club, with an offer of 70 per cent. and a guarantecd puree of $2,000, secured the mill. Terry McGovern. in preparing for his fights, will have the assistance of Bob Fitzsimmons. Fitz has always iiked the little Brooklynite, and the pair had a talk recently. Fitz offered to take Terry in charge and show him how he could defeat ‘Young Corbett.” The offer was accepted and the ex- champion will move down to Bath Beach and there undergo the course of training as Fitz plans it. * The prospects of Gus Ruhlin and Bob Fitzsimmons meeting again are very brisht. The Century A. C., of Los Angeles, wants to give the men a date next month, and about all that is necessary now is Fitz’s consent, Billy Madden, who is now on the coast, has agreed for Ruhlin to the con- ditions of the bout, which will be of twenty rounds.
