of February 26 that Charles P. Taft and
Cfc«rl«a W>hh Murphy, president of th*

to the fiuperba*. In a letter addressed 10 j
the sporting . :it->r of The Tribune and re- !
ceived yesterday. Mr. Ebbets says:
"A simple denial by the gentlemen men
tioned, or by myself, as president of the
firook'yn club, would not appease the sen- j

you in person, if you desire to come to

o'clock, at "Washington Park, and thus once |
and for all silence the slanderers, who ,

So far as known. Mr Ebbets is the first
president of a major league club who has
expressed a 'willingness to show his hand
for the good of baseball on the old cry of
joint ownership in one or more clubs.

""Nap" Rucker. the star pitcher of the
Sjperbas, and Tim Jordan, the hard hit
ting first baseman, are In the fold once
more. Their signed contracts were re
ceived yesterday by the Brooklyn club, and
th** "fans" have no further cause for worry
on the ground that they were : "holding
out." Kucker writes that, he is in fine con
dition anri ready to do his best to help Bill
Dahlen put a winning team in Brooklyn.
Jordan will report to-morrow, -when the

Crowley is a strong favorite at even money,

L On all form Holmer should walk home
unless Ljrstrom. who js credited with some
fast trials in private, turns out to be a long

Holmer's poor showing in the fifteen-mil©
race at Madison Square Garden recently,
when Fred Meadows romped to victory,
must not be accepted seriously. Ke was not
himself that night and in addition to big
blisters on his feet, claims that he was
"doped." It must not be foreotten that
Holmer has a victory to Ids credit over St.
Yves, the great little French runner who
»on The Marathon Derby at the Polo
Grounds Last year, and that he is a natural
runner over the distance. Crowley has im
proved since he joined the professional
ranks and is in fine condition, but he. lacks
the speed of Holmer and is not gifted with
greater stamina on what has been seen.
The race promises to be a good one.

ly full The signed contract of R. W. Ford,
who pitched for th" Jersey city club of the
Ua stern Leacue. last year, was received
yesterday. Ford was with the Yankees in
the early part of last season, but was
farmed out to get a little more experience.
Twenty-four players have now signed
with the Pittsburg club of th" National

being that of Edward J. Abbaticchio, the
utility inticlder.
Vincent Powers, the jockey, will ride in
France this year, according to a statement
made by Phil T. chit, The latter will
■efi his horses at auction on March .*. at
Jacksonville and cast in his lot with a
I avatar of other American trainers abroad.
Powers headed the list of winning jock
eys in this country last year in spite of
the fact that he ivas under suspension for
three or four months after incurring the
<tis;i!oas-i:r-? of the stewards of the Sara

The second of a aeries of special races,
this time at twenty miies. will be run at
Madison Square Garden on March 14. It

National Steeplechase and H\int Association In
terprets Meaning of Word "Disabled/*
At a meeting of the board of stewards of
the National Steeplechase and Hunt Asso
ciation, in the. Windsor Arcade, yesterday
a ruling of the stewards who acted at the
meeting of the United Hunts Racine: Asso
ciation at Belmont Park terminal on Elec
tion Day was reversed, and the Middlesex
Hunt cup was awarded to Allan Pinker
ton's Macedonia. The stewards decided that
under the rules, as well as by all precsdent,
it was necessary to reverse the decision of
the United Hunts stewards, of whom Au
gust Belmont, chairman of the Jockey Club.
was one.
This action is of more than usual in
| terest, as it establishes an interpretation
! for Rule 84, concerning which there was
some conflict and misunderstanding.
In the race for the Middlesex Hunt Cup
on Election Day only two horses went to
| the post— Pinkerton's Macedonia, rid
; den by Fred Alpers, and Harry S. Page's
Parson Kelly, ridden by his owner. The
last named refused early in the race, .while
' Macedonia blundered so badly that Mr.
: Alpers had a perilous journey, particularly
i after the girth slipped three or four jumps
I from home. Macedonia managed to
scramble over the last jump, however, but
as he, did so the saddle slipped to one side
and Mr. Alpers fell in a heap, after cling
ing with one foot to his mount's neck for
one hundred feet or so. Ambrose Clark,
who was standing in the infield, caught
Macedonia, and. mounting, finished out the
race five lengths before Parson Kelly,
which finally finished the course.
To the surprise of the crowd, the stew
ards disqualified- Macedonia, on the ground
that Mr. Alpers was not disabled, and con
sequently should have remounted the horse
himself. Those who wagered on Parson
Kelly rejoiced, but otherwise much unfa
vorable criticism was heard..-
The stewards baaed their ruling on Rule
S4, Section l, which reads:
Rule S4. Section I— ln steeplechases- and
hurdle races any horse petting away from
his rider may be remounted in any part
of same field or inclosure in which the oc
currence took place, but should such horse
not be- caught until he shall have entered
another field, then he shall be ridden or
brought back to the one in which he
parted from his rider. Any rider so los
ing his horse may be assisted in catching
him and remounting him without risk of
disqualification; and in the event of a rider
being disabled, his horse may be ridden
home by any • person of sufficient weight,
provided he qualifies according to the con- ;
ditions of the race. No penalty shall be
exacted for carrying overweight In this
instance.

ROSEVILLE HEX 11' IX.
Elizabeth Team Beaten in
Athletic Bowling League.
Rosevilie went to Elizabeth and won the
"dd game in the Athletic Bowling League
last night, while in another series Mont
ciair sprang a surprise by winning two on
the New York Athletic club alleys. As the
matter now stands Elizabeth continues to
lead, with a record of twenty-seven games
won and fifteen last, only a game each
way better than Roseville.
Although New York had its champion
ship aspirations shattered the local five
at least had the satisfaction of chalking up
a new high total for this league. This was
1,091, made in the last game, when the
team was charged with only three missed
spares, all of which were pick-outs. The
team scored 5.^7 pins in the first half and
534 In the last five frames.
New York had no luck in the second
game, which was lost after a tie. Both
sides totalled 930. but on the roll-off Mont
data- won, SS to 63. Had Roberts not fouled
in the last frame New York would have
won.
Neither Roseville nor Elizabeth rolled
quite up to their standard. Always in
front In the first game, the visiting team
started down the tenth box some twenty
five pins to the good, an advantage which
was easily maintained, the totals reading
M to MS.
The scores were as follows:

chase courses and in hurdle races the
spaces between the fences or hurdles and
the space between the last fence and the
finish arc considered as fields or inclosures

It all hinged, of course, on the interpreta
tion of the word "disabled," and as -Mr.
Alpors was not badly injured Mr. Belmoni
and his associates decided to disqualify
Macedonia. In doing this they overlooked
the -fact that the rule was not so inter
preted at the big tracks, where more. than
one rase could be cited of a- horse being re
mounted by some stable hand and finishing
the race, when his original rider was walk
ing complacently and totally • uninjured

Giants Go Uen Innings
Two Accidents Mar Day's Practice, but Bell
and Lush Escape Serious Injury.
|r?y Telegraph to The Tribune.]
Marl in Springs, Tex., I' i>. 28. — It was a
eefious day in the camp of the Giants from
the moment they alighted from the Dallas
train until the last man was out in a hard ;
fought ten-inning game which wound up j
the afternoon practice. The weather was j
almost sultry, «nd the players had plenty j
of opportunity to work out the soreness in j
their arms.
There, were two accidents during the j
afternoon's game that for a time looked
serious, but everything will be right to- ,
morrow morning, and the regular routine
will be continued^ Bell, the new left-hand- j
ed pitcher, was bad!] hurt In » collision j
with Elmer Zacher. the heavyweight hitter I
of tin Connecticut I.«-hbih\ Hell had just I
started to field a 'low grounder thai v.-.c

of '/.■■<■>.■ feet flew up and bit him i
squarely b'etw'eeri the eyes.
The young pitcher was knocked as cold
as a wedge, and the player* rushed around ;
him. fearing that he had been seriously in
jured. He was soon brought around by the
Lee of water. He bled profusely, and it
was feared that his nose was broken and '
FIGHT AT HOCKEY
FISTS USED FREELY.
Wanderers Bon to Toronto
Seven in Rmigh Game.
F*ast. rough hockey, which ended in a
free-for-all fight, marked the contest at
the St. Nicholas Rink last night between
the seven from Toronto University, of Can
ada, and the Wanderers Hockey Club, of
New York, in which the visitors won hy a
score of 6 goals to 2. The local players
started the "rough house" work which end
ed in the fight. The visitors played good
clean hockey in the first half, but came
hack at their opponents in the second
period and played them to a standstill at
their own game, and before they got
through had the Wanderers sprawling all
over the ice.
The strain of this kind of work soon be
gan to tell on the tempers of the players,
and with seven minutes left to play Frith
and Sprague Cleghotn kept slashing at each
other, going down the right side of the rink
until the Toronto man turned and struck
at Cleghorn. They then dropped their
sticks and went at each other with their
fists. Smeaton jumped in and the others
followed, until they were all in a heap on
the ice.
The referee and some spectators who had
jumped on the ice finally succeeded in dis
entangling the mass. Frith and cleghorn
were banished from the. game, and Smea
ton was penalized for three minutes. Some
of the players then wanted to quit, but
play was finally resumed. Before the game
ended the crowd, almost to a man. switched
to the visitors, and their every move was
cheered, while the Wanderers were loudly
hissed.
The game in itself was one of the most
exciting seen at the rink in many a day.
and was pretty to watch, especially the
neat team work of the visitors and the
individual work of McSloy, who is a won
derfully heady player, Evans and Frith.
In fact, the whole team played clever
hockey, especially in the first half, but. the
poor Ice tired them in the second period.
The checking was hard and close, the
Canadians being just as strenuous in this
respect as their opponents. Both goal
k oepprs made many difficult shots, but the
defence work of the local players was
superior. If the Wanderers had remained
on the ice instead of being with the timers
to frequently the game would have, been
much closer, for they held the visitors
cleverly, and in the early part of the sec
ond period kept them on the defensive, out
playing them for several minutes.
The first half ended in a tie at 1 to 1. and
the Wanderers went ahead early in the
final period, 'but in a minute Toronto caught
them, and for the next ten minutes it was
n!p and tuck. The game became rougher
and faster all the time, with both sevens
striving to gain the one-goal advantage
and break the tie. Just at the end, how
ever, the Wanderers weakened and the vis
itors shot four pretty goals in the last ten
or twelve minutes, which spelled victory.
The referees had a hard game to handle,
but did their work ably and tried to keep
the struggle clean, but it was not to be.
There was a dispute before the game
started as to playing time, the visitors
wanting to split the difference between the
thirty-minute halves they play and the
twenty minutes called for here. It was
finally arranged to make the first half
twenty minutes and the second one twenty
tive minutes.
The penalties were numerous, Odie Cleg
horn being the first man to suffer for
slashing at McSloy, Smeaton soon follow
ing him for a similar offence. Then Bulger
and Evans got into a hot argument and
were sent to the bench.
In the second half Evans and S. Cleg
horn slashed at each other and went to the
bench for three minutes, while Odie, Cleg
horn and Oallie were also penalized.

Many Names on Golf Handi
cap List far Women.
Mrs. C. T. Stout, of the Richmond Coun
ty Country club, has the distinction of
heading the first handicap list ever issued
by the Women's lletropotttao Golf Asso
ciation. The table given out yesterday by
Mrs. If. D. Paterson. president of the as
sociation, contains 106 names, with tlie
rating-s extending all the wa> from plus
1 to 2T>.
Mrs. Stout is .it plus 1, while Miss Julia
R. Mix. of Engl p wocd, the metropolitan
'•hampion. and Miss Georgianna M. Bishop,
of Brooklawn, a former national and metro
politan titleholder, are bracketed at scratch.
No names appear at 1. but Mrs. T. IT. Pol
hemus. the Richmond County Country Club
woman, who was runner-up to Miss Kat«
Harley in the 1907 national championship,
and Mrs. A. Beckscher, of Ardsley, have
been placed at 2. Mrs. Heckseher. for
merly Miss fjouisn Vanderhoef, defeated
Miss Dorothy Campbell at Virginia Hot
Springs last fall, immediatPly after the
Scotch girl had won the American title.
Now that one-day tournaments have be-
COme so popular in this vicinity, the local
association realizes the growing need for
an official handicap list. It will be of great
value not only to the metropolitan body,
hut to the Women's Eastern iJolf Asso
ciation ah well. In fact, the various clubs
will also find it of assistance. When occa
sion demands the association's executive
committee will revise the list.

that the executive committee had decided
to accept the offer of the Essex County
Country Club and hold the next champion
ship tournament there. This will be the
first time the New Jersey golfers have
been called to the Hutton Park course since
the association's Initial tournament, ten
years ago, when Archie Graham, of Pater
son, won the title.
Many changes for the better have ap
peared at the Essex links since then, so
that the visitors will find a far different
course. The acquisition of additional land
has made it possible to increase the play
ing length to nearly 6.000 yards. The tourna
ment will be held on June 2, .3 and 4. An
application from the Country Club of At
lantic city had also been received, but the
committee considered the course by the.
sea too far away.
WAGNER AND DALY IN DRAW
Wonderful Finish Saves Latter from
Losing Bout on Points.
,I'ie Wagner, Ihe Italian bantamweight.
and Johnny Daly boxed tea furious rounds
to a. riraw at the Olympic Ath!eti< Cluh last
night.
Wagner started like a winner, working a
left shift to Daly's body and head, knock
ing the latter down for four seconds in the
fourth round. After that Daly solved the
shift and most of Wagner's swings went
around his neck or hack.
Daly came strongly in the ninth round,
and by beating Wagner to the "punch gave
the Italian more than he received. Time
»nd again Wagner's shift would be coun
tered by left jabs that caused him to mis«.
in the tenth round Daly wen I hi Wagner
like a wildcat, and, landing on the body
ami head, had Wagner hanging on. Daly's
remarkable showing In the last two rounds
easily evened the bout.

BETHEL GIVES VIEWS.
Evades Issue of Lower Tele
phone Toll to Brooklyn:
President U. N. Bethel of the New York |
Telephone Company went on the stand j
again yesterday and testified before the j
legislative committee which is investigat- j
ing telephone and telegraph conditions, j
He said the independent agricultural lines i
represented capital of $1.525,000. with gross j
earnings of from 15 per cent to 21 per cent. [
but that the net earnings did not average
more than 5 per cent.
-•'These lines are not directly profitable."
he said, '"and are operated on a charge
basis ranging from $15..V> to $17 a year, ac- {
cording to their distance from the ox- j
changes."
President Bethel described the develop
ment of the telephone in this city since
1888 and discussed some of the present day j
difficulties. He said he looked for a great j
business in Queen, but that at present the j
local traffic there was hard to handle, as
the borough was not as well developed as
Manhattan and The Bronx. He was not
very specific in his answer to a question (
about a reduced rate between Brooklyn j
and Manhattan, but said there would have j
to be many rearrangements in rates to j
provide such a rate. j
When asked if it would not be profitable I
to lower the East River rate to five cent?. {
Mr. Bethel said the increased expenses j
would be so great that the additional traf- j
fie would not result in any greater income. j
He also thought the hotels were justified j
in charging 10 cents a call, as they did
not get. as much business as the pay
stations.
Edward A. Merritt. jr.. chairman of the
committee, said the investigation would
probably close with one or two more hear
ings and that a report would be handed
to the Legislature before the next adjourn- j
ment.
President Bethel said he did not believe
in placing telephone and telegraph lines !
under the Public Service Commission, but
that the favored supervision by the Legis- ;
lature. and thought broad inquiries like the ;
present one were the best kind of super
vision.
