Wary Mode of Attacks SAN FRAUCXSCO, CaL, March 30. (Stair correspondence.) In spite or all the stories of fake -which have floated -westward, the McGovern-Corbett battle "which will be decided tomorrow night will be on the level. No two fighters that Have ever faced each other in the ring have trained more faithfully than have XcGovern and Corbett. The little Brook lyn cyclone h&s been to weight and tux ler for several days past, and today at his trainlnsr camn at Croll's Garden. Ala mada, be looked a world-beater for a lad of .his size. Young Corbett, on the other hand, has had his own troubles getting down to weigrat. In fact, he weighed at 6:30 this evening 128 pounds, and will epead a part of the night on the road. He will be compelled to go through the same course In the morning, and the best he hopes to do is to be at 127 pounds at 3 o'clock. Corbett s dally grind in order to reach the weight has -worked against him in the betting, and the wise men who wager their wealth on the outcome of a 'fistic en counter are holding back. McGovern for days has been a 10 to 8 favorite, but if the Denver lad makes the weight tomor row there are chances that the cham pion will enter the ring at even money. So far there has been little money bet on the battle. The bets that have been placed are all small ones, and the amount is not over $10,000. The bulk of the money will be bet tomorrow at the ring side, and notwithstanding the fact that it is a championship battle, not over JM.OOQ -will be wagered. McGevera Strong- and Fast. McGovern, if he is fit, as he says he Is, ought to regain his lost laurels. He has had nothing to worry him during his preparation for the fight, while with Cor bett it has been all worry and hard work. Terry Is as strong and as fast as he ever was, and he has bet the last dollar lie has on earth that he will regain the cham pionship from Corbett. Great crowds have watched the little terror fitting him self for the battle, and have come away declaring that there is nothing to it but McGovern. Terry has demonstrated that he can take a tough beating and that he is as game and courageous as a lion. He has gone through his training without a mishap, and tomorrow night when he steps In the ring he will be as fit as a fighter can possibly be. so If he loses all the credit must go to Corbett. While McGovern has always declared that it was the "lucky punch" that laid him away at Hartford, he: has not lost sight of the fact that the Denverlte has a terrific right that has the -sleeping po tion always lurking for the unwary fighter. "I'm not going to rip In tomorrow night and lay myself wide open as I have done In my previous battles," he told the writer this afternoon. "I'm going to fight to win, but I'm not going to be In a hurry. Corbett has a stiff . punch, but I don't think he has it over me, and I am going to prove to my friends that I, too, have the wallop that will bring home the money." JlcCovem'g Plan of Attack. ITnllke Corbett, McGovern has not named the round In which he Is to win. He has agreed upon a fighting pro gramme which Is, that he will wait for Corbett to bring the battle to him and not carry It around the ring, as he has in all former battles. McGovern knows that Corbett has a weak middle struc ture, and he will give Corbett's stomach his undivided attention. McGovern is not the only one who knows that the cham pion's stomach has gone back on him. This was demonstrated the night he fought Little Eddie Hanlon. Hanlon ripped his right Into Corbett's commissary department in the 17th round and the champion went down for the count, and it was only through his masterful general ship that he -was able to etall Hanlon off until the gong sounded. Corbett could not have chosen a worse place to train than at Beech's Tavern. The salt sea air Is against free perspira tion, and for a lad of the champion's build, who must sweat freely in order to reduce in weight, the beach is no place. Corbett knew this," but his great love for the breakers, which Is nothing short of a passion with the little chap, was so great that he could not be persuaded to train elsewhere. When he Is not on the road or working In the gymnasium he Is down on the beach watching the waves as they break and spread over the sands at his feet. During the gain, even -when the downpour was so great that the road was a running stream, the Den ver lad kept up his roadwork. The United States Life Saving Station is within a few hundred feet of his training quarters, and yesterday he borrowed a nor'wester and a full set of waterproofs and took a elx-mllo tramp, always keeping close to tho great waves, which were running very heavy. He returned still fresh, but in spite of the heavy clothing was not perspiring as freely as he should have done, considering the amount of work performed. Corbett Has Hope. Yet. in spite of this, Corbett says that while he did not expect to beat McGov ern In two rounds, he Is positive he will do the trick in eight Whether he can, remains to be seen. If he can keep Terry away from his stomach he stands a chance to win, but If he mixes it and gives Terry half a chance, his clutch to the championship will be gone when he wakes up. The out-of-the-state contin gent who will witness tho battle is not as great as was at first expected. It Is estimated that not more than 300 ring-followers will Journey to the Bay City to see the mill. Eddie Graney has been chosen referee. He does not like the agreement entered into by the lads re garding the question of a foul. He de clares that a fast fighter that had out pointed his opponent for 10 rounds could easily claim a foul if It should happen that he got Into trouble, and by the time the examination could be made he would be entirely rested and be able to win, where had he not claimed a foul he would have been defeated. The ring-followers will watch thl6 agreement with considerable interest W. G. M. . M'GOVERX THE FAVORITE. Local Sports Think ex-ChnmpIea Will Retrain Hts LanrelK. "Terry McGovern will knock some of the Denver mud off of Young Corbett to night," said an excited sport last night, who was standing In front of a downtown cigar store. "I bet that fight won't last ten rounds." "It will be a fight while It lasts." said another disciple of the gloves, who over heard the conversation, and was also somewhat Interested In tonight's fight. - tell you both those fellows are whirl winds." 'Nothing to it." interrupted Tom Tracey. "McGovern can't lick that fellow any more than he can fly. Their records? Tell me nothing. Why, Corbett has .never been in shape since the time he licked McGovern before. He has thought all the time be would be able to win the fights easy, and kws :et taken the proper train ing. I tell you they will hoth be in the best of shape, but Corbett is the winner.' "I like McGovern for a winner," said Tracey s partner, -Martin Denny; "but he did net venture the assertion very loud until tis partner had engaged in conver sation elsewhere. "Reafly, I can't- see anything to the fight except 'McGovern. I Argue like this: The last time that McGovern fought Corbett be counted upon his name being a winner. He thought he would have Corbett scared to death as soon as he got into the ring, and did not get into the proper shape. It was the aim of Corbett's life to beat Mc Govern, and he was in the best of trim. Mac knows this time that he has no snap and he will train to the last If I bet my money it will be on -McGovern If I have to give odds." "McGovern every time." said "Mysteri ous Billy" Smith. "There's no use talk ing, Corbett can't fight like McGovern. Think of that blow of his. Why it would land you Into the middle of next week. McGovern'8 fight in ten rounds, that's what I say." "In seven or eight rounds," interrupted Denny, who by this time had been drawn back into the conversation. "That fight cannot last long. There is too much bit ter feeling between those men, and they are both too anxious to win. They will fight their hardest from the word go. Fred Miller, tho welter-weight from San Francisco, stood with Tracey, and cham pioned the cause of Young Corbett. "Corbett has life in his blows," ho'sald. "They are the kind that will knock you out. McGovern has a strong blow, and it is a blow that will punish his opponent, but it is not a knockout blow. Jack Grant says McGovern; Pete Grant says Corbett, Jim White and Harry White both, say with their partner. Billy Smith, that the fight will be all McGovern. Among the sports met with on the street opinion seems to be somewhat in favor of McGovern, but the Corbett backers are by no means scarce. Qutuals will be sold tonight on the fight, while the odds offered are 10 to S in favor of McGovern. It is thought that the betting will be heavy- TRACEY AND GAXS LOCIC HORXS. Time of fVelffhlns la Causes Hitch la Arranging Match. Tom Tracey and Joe Gans, champion lightweight of the world, differ three hours on the time of weighing In. If they can come together on this point, a fight will be arranged between them about May 15. All other points of the fight have been arranged. Gans will be allowed $200 ex pense money to make the trip to Port land, and both parties agree as to the division of the gate money. Tracey will agree to weigh 140 pounds at 6 o'clock the evening of the fight, but Gans Insists that he shall weigh 140 pounds at the ringside. The wires were kept hot yesterday, and will be carrying fight negotiations again today. Early yesterday morning Tracey received a letter from Gans manager, Al Herford, which set forth the condi tions under which the world's champion was willing to meet Portland's light weight fighter. "I am willing to accept $300 as expense money," ran the letter, "and will divide the receipts GO and 40 per cent. The only question between us is as to the time of weighing in. I have been advised that j you were willing to weigh 140 pounds at 6 o'clock. Now, If you were willing to make this weight at 6 o'clock, you surely can a few hours later at the ringside, and J this is what my man wants. If only my self were concerned in the matter. I would be willing to accept your terms without question. I have to do as my man wishes, however, and cannot agree to fight unless you will make the weight at the ring side. I am -making concessions to you at that. Gans can come down to 131 pounds without any trouble, and It is a concession for him to fight at 140 pounds." Martin Denny, who Is arranging the de tails for his partner, is disposed to accept the statements with a little salt, and says that he does not believe Gans can fight at 131 pounds. "He simply wants the best terms he can get," said Denny, "'and is making a strong play to have us concede to him. We will not do it, however, and have given him our best terms. I think he will accept them, and am sure the fight will be pulled off some time- In May. I think about the ISth." As soon as the letter was received, mes sages over the wires were sent, and last night the matter had not been adjusted. The last message was sent by Tracey, and read as follows: "Cannot possibly make less than 140 pounds at 6. Jack Grant will allow $300 expenses. Contest about May 15. An swer." No answer has yet been received, but Denny thinks he will hear from Gans manager today. Gans Is now at Baltimore.- Ind.. and is training in the Eureka Athletic Club jrvm naslum. Tracey says he will be able to get into the best of shape In time for the contest, and "believes he will be able to grve the champion a hard fight Graney Visits the Fighters. SAN FRANCISCO, March 30. Eddie Graney. who will referee the Young Cor-bett-McGovern fight tomorrow night, vis ited both training quarters today. He wished to get an exact Interpretation from the two pugilists of the agreement which Corbett and McGovern's managers signed last night. As - the agreement reads, in case a foul Is claimed by either side, the decision of the referee must be withheld until after a reputable physi cian has made an examination and re ported what Injury, If any. has been in flicted. Graney wants to have the full meaning of the agreement understood by all parties. It must be known whether the examination Is to be made at the ringside and who will make it. In fact, all the circumstances of such an event must be clearly laid down. When asked about the matter. Graney admitted that such was the purpose of his visit to the two camps. "I think It Is only Just to myself and to the two fighters." 'he ..said, "that there should be left no possible ground for a misunder standing. That 4s the reason I had for going to see them. I have "no doubt that every-lng will be perfectly satisfactory, however." O'BRIEN BESTS CHOYXSKI. Knocks His Heart Oat "With Cease less Rala of B loirs. PHILADELPHIA. March 30. -Jack O'Brien, of this city, tonight outpointed Joe Choynskl In a six-round bout at the Washington Sporting Club.

The trout-fishing season opens tomor row, and many an anxious angler will enjoy a day's sport with rod and reel. The early fishing Is reported to be good this year, and this is vouched-for by some few who have taken advantage of the law and the good weather to hie themselves to different streams before the open season. Dairy and Johnson Creeks have suffered the most, but during the past week this has not been the case, as Game Warden Qulmby has been paying visits to these districts and appointing deputies to assist him in the enforcement of the law. Scrog glns and Gales Creeks are also reported as having been fished In to some extent during the past month, but the early fish ing Is not so good In these streams as in the others, and It Is believed that few trout have been taken. Black bass fish ing Is also becoming very popular, as the fish are quite plentiful In the sloughs tributary to the Columbia River, while they may also be caught In the Willam ette near the mouths of small streams flowing Into the river. The open season for the black bass commences June 1. and the Game Warden Is anxiously awaiting an opportunity to use his own rod on the gamy Eastern fish.. In the meantime he is doing all In his power to prevent the lawbreakers who are continually fishing for these new fish. Billing Gives a Luncheon Too. NEW YORK. March 30. C K. G.

"The doctor said I was not -fit tor work and that if I wanted to live , I would have to. give up business." said T J.

"It was a Mad of incipient par alysis, and It is due to Dr, Willlams Plnk Pills for Pale People that I am oow to perfect health again. First I would be hot, thert cold andclammy, and "at times my body felt as if pierced by needles. There were terrible pains all over me, and then I would have no feeling' at all. A numbness sometimes came over me, and I could not move. With it all were agonizing headaches and a pain fn the region of my spine. I look; back on It now and wonder how I retained my reason through that long and trying ordeal. There were months and months when I, got no natural sleep, and my nervous system was a wreck from pain and the opiates which. I had been obliged to take. "One day I read the statement of a man who had been cured of a case like mine by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills' for Pale People, and I began taking them.
