Joseph, Mo Nov. 2C A new baseball league, to take In Minneapolis, St. Paul. Kansas city and Omaha In the West and Milwaukee, Indlanapol's, Columbus and Toledo In the East, was formed here to-day, and the revolt of the Western League was ended, an agreement having- been reached between President Hlckey, W. T.

Van Brunt, owner of the St. Joseph club, and George Tebeau of Kansas City. President Hlckey will resign at the an-rual meeting of the league, to bo held next week, and his successor will be appointed. Van Brunt will give up his St. Joseph franchise, since St.

Joseph Is to be placed In tho minor league, and Tebeau, It Is said, will go with the Denver team. Tebeau agreed to sign a pledge not to employ a singlo Kansas City plaver. Distinct Froin Wntern. The league formed to-day will be distinct from the new Western League, as now planned, and which Is to comprise Denver, St. Joseph, Colorado Springs, Sioux City, Des Moines and probably Lincoln.

Messrs. Hlckey, Van Brunt and Tebeau were In conference for some time here today. President Hlckey said: "This new organization must not be confused with the Western League, as it la a distinct organization entlrelv. A meeting of the 'Western League will be held next week, at which time the business of last season will be closed up and my successor elected." President Hlckey said he would certainly resign as president of the We'tern League next week, but refused to say where the meeting will be held. So far as he knows, and 0 far as can be learned here to-day, this ends the revolt.

Van Brunt, who headed the revolt, said he would not stand In the way of President Hlcke's advancement, but seeing no opportunity to get St. Joseph Into the larger league, said he would have nothing more to do with baseball. Westerners In JtevT York. ItEPUBIJC bPECIAL. New York.

RRrunuc srnciAL. Hartford, Conn, Nov. Down to fighting weight, 113 pounds, and looking fit to battle for his life. "Jack" Rothwell, better known aa "Young Corbett." of Denver, vv h3 aspires to tho feather-weight championship of the world, finished his training today In tho Coliseum annex at Hartford for Thursdays contest with Terry" McGovern. Stocklly built, well muscled ond with a determined get-there way about him, the i llttlo Westerner Impresses one as a very likely pugilist.

In Ins Bparrlmt to-day. Corbett showed that he has a thorough knowledge of the finer, aa well As tho coarser, points of boxing. Ho can fight scientifically If the occasion demands, and In roughing tactics ho Is not found wanting. Built verj much on the order of McGovern, his general fighting tactics suggest the "Brookljn Whirlwind's" ring methods He Is aggressive, full of confidence and self-possessed. To-day, In speaking of the coming contest, he said: "When I strike out with either hand at an opponent I alnajs have my ccs optn find Know just where I Intend to land a blow.

I do not say that my aim Is alwajs accurate, or that my opponent cannot parry tho lead, but I do know what I am about. "I am confident I will win 1 hive fought and defeated every man that Terrj" his scored a victory over and In quicker time than did McGovern. "In almost every battle Terry has been knocked down, and. In one or two Instances, almost placed In a groggy condi tion, juy recora win not snow many narrow escapes or knockdowns against me. Tho conclusion Is clear that McGovern can be floored.

He la only human, and if bit on the right spot with sufficient force, can be knocked out- Now, I believe that I can strike a harder blow than any man that McGovern has jet met: I am also convinced that at some period during Thursdays battle he will leave an openlmr that will permit of a 'demonstration of tho correctness of my theory, and that I will be equal to the occasion. Asked for an opinion as to the probable length of the battle, Corbett said: "If he fights mo cleverly It may go the limit; If he decides to rough It. 1 don't think It will go over six rounds, but. while It lasts there will bo plenty of fighting, and any man who bets on me will get a run for his money." SIcGOVKn.V i rKurccTTitni. Glad "Youdb Corbett" Promises to Be Such Tough Proposition.

New York, Nov. 2,. After tight days-hard training for his battle with "Touns Corbett" of Denver, Terry McGovern took a tcn-mllo run in the vicinity "of Jeromo Park tills afternoon, and despite the fact that It was freezing cold, with a strong wind blowing, he covered the distance In ninety minutes. When hA re.ir.hpri hi train. lng quarters he was examined by a phjsl-clan, who declared that the little champion was In perfect trim for tho coming contest.

He replied to several questions as to bow he felt: "Bully. Never felt better in my life, and while I have taken no chances, and have gotten Into the best condition, I feel very confident of the result. They tell me Corbett Is a two-handed, swift, rushing fighter on my own style, and I hope he is, for then neither he nor I will have any excuse to mako when the end comes" McGovern Upped the scale at 122 pounds to-day, and said that with a road run to-morrow he would finish up his training and break up camp, prior to his leaving for Hartford to-morrow afternoon. He expects to reach the ringside weighing' not more than 124 pounds. Among the snorting men here them la very llttlo betting being done.

McGovern's backers ore offering bets of 2 to 1 on their man with few takers. Among the sporting resorts on Upper Broadway some of the sports are making what they call gambling bets on the Denver lad, taking odds of 6 to 2, but the prevailing price Is 2 to 1 on the champion.
