Kaft AltlioiiRh no ofllclal announcement lias been
reKf tnade by President Freoflman, It rou be said that
Ki- the New York nascball Club mill play Sunday
Era Ramos this coming year whllo tho team la In tho
JT West. Tho directors of tbo club baro already
-S3 reached this .conclusion, and Prcaldont N. K,
"$ Young-of the National Lcniruo will receive In-
Bffi Itructlom ahortly to mnko out ft ichedulo
I" n which the Now Yorks will bo res-
olarly listed (or Sundays In Chicago, Clovo-
land, Cincinnati, St. IjOuIi, and Louis
ville. The new four-trip schedule which tho
league will adopt at tho spring meeting has
practically forced tho New York Club to tnko
this step. The majority of tbo League clubs
baTO been anxious to havo the New Yorks play
Bundny ball In the West for the past ten years,
bat it was Imuosstblo to bring such n state of
affairs to an Issue. With tho power to voto any
measure Into a baseball law, however, tho mag
Bates of the Sunday playing clubs havo suc
ceeded In forcing through a new-fangled echod
tilo which makes It imperatlro for tho
New Yorks and other non-Sunday playing
teams to fall In line. Instead of ranking
two trips West next season, playing throe
fames in each of tho six Western
fSi cities on each trip, the Eastern clubs will make
j?' four trips, playing two games In each city on
R aach of tho first tbroo trips and ono gamo on the
jjls last trip, so that they will not play mora than
fflV twelve consocutlro games In tho West nt any
?J time during tho season, which will enable them
JtJv to bo on tbo home grounds n groater part of tho
SjjF time than over before. Such n schedulo will bo
rftj' of ndvantago to Washington, llaltlmorc. and
3f Brooklyn, on thoSunday gamo proposition, for
Xy they will not havo Jumps to mike. Clubs that
SK do not play on Sunday will bo compelled to
ml' stay three days in somo towns to play two
fr Eamcs, or may bo compelled to do their
f ' travelling on the Sabbath. With the Idea of
V not permitting othor teams to enjoy moro beno-
tflts than tho Now Yorks. tho local club, there
fore, has virtually decided to play on Sundays
Away from homo. This information comes from
a heavy stockholder In tho club, who says that
President Frcedman will soon raako nn an
nouncement. Mr. Frcedman, when naked about
tho matter yestorday, said ho did not care
to discuss It. In playing Sunday ball
!2A away from homo tho New Yorks will adopt
;J a custom that has been pursued by the
K) Brooklyn Club for many years. It means big
lj profits and more consocutive playing days for
JyA the team, especially as tho scbodule will consist
K&J of 151 games Instead of 132, ns In tho past.
fflsfr' Whother tho New Yorks will piny on Sundays
rs in this olty or not has not yet been decided by
Mi President Froedman. although bo says that all
Sjjr of the club's stockholders and many patrons of
R'- tho game are anxious for him to m.iko ft move
,w In favor of such contests. It's protty safe bet-
M ting, though, that Mr. Freodmanwlll yield to
y& if hat appears to be a popular demand.
if Tho Now York Club officials have also docldod
;-J to have the team train nt Lakouood next
ri spring. Prcsidont Frcedman and Manager
i Joyce are a unit on this bealth-ghing resort,
.1 and arrangements for sondlng the men thero
A will be completed shortly. Lakewood Is cspo-
J';. dally well adapted for training the New Yorks,
iffc tho officials say, becausonoxt season will bo tia
Sj-R much earlier than in tho rust, and it is the Now
M Yorks' turn to play In Iioston on April 10. wh Ich
g was formerly Fast Day. In order to accustom
wSf tho players to the cool weather in tho North,
'rT' which prevails at that time, tho club officials
'(ri bolteve that Lakewood is a far better place to go
i than the South. With tho newly improved dia-
;g tnond end the new system of batlis at Lakewood
;. the team should bo grontly benefited. Tho club
?& . will not charge admission to any of the practice
t comes at Lakowood, thereby losing a sourco of
roveuue enjoyed by every othor League club
that sends its team South. It Is probable that
3B Manager Joyce will order the players to report
M: here not later than March 1.
Awi , Baseball enthusiasts all over tho oonntry will
regret to learn that Charles H. Byrne, President
W of the Brooklyn Club. Is at the poiut of death at
SEE t his residence In West Eleventh street, this city.
if? Sir. Byrne has not been in his former good
t health for tho past two years, and at tho recent
V Iieague meeting in Philadelphia ho was too ill
,1jf to take his usual active part in baseball politics.
JR. He has done more for tho good of baseball and
;K in framing tbo laws that govern and protect the
f sport than any other magnato now Identified
f" with tho League. As a membor of the National
-p Board of Arbitration. Mr. Byrne, has helped, to
3; decide many important baseball cases, even
H though his own club has beon forced to suffer.
'ifc As President of tho Brooklyn Club ho has ele-
m vated the game and made himself popular nil
sL over the League circuit. The physicians who
;?" are attending Air. Byrne say there it little hopo
WJ for him. He was Vory low yesterday.
39g Although the representatives of Harvard,
JE Yale, and Cornell aro not saying much about
aK the proposed boat raco at New London, thero
:& aro many reports flying around ns to the proba-
nflE' Die outcomo of tho present negotiations, which
-M were begun at Albany by tho three crew cap-
JK' tains a week ago. From an Impartial stand-
Jfe point, it looks liko a game of politics. Cornell
f will hold off from agreeing upon tho
Bg Thames as the course until Harvard and
TK' lale consont to Bign a tlirco or five
:jr, , years' agreement with tho Ithacans. As
'M the Crimson and tho Blue aro both desirous
'F of rowing at Now London, and will not listen to
TO any other course, it Is almost a certainty that
' they will agree to Cornell's terms by signing a
;f' threo yoarsr contract. Cornell's desire to keop
Eg- faith with Pennsylvania nnd Columbia, to
,SK whom tho Ithacans have lundo no pledges, is
"vf tho principal reason for the present situation. It
JKi ,'Pennsy,rand Columbia, alive to Cornell's cm-
ft. barrasslng position, had voluntarily released tho
Oji.' Ithacans from all fancied obligations several
m. weeks ago. everything would now ba rilaln sail-
I log. Cornell could row one three-cornered or two
dual races with Harvard and Yale, and get an
agreement for a term of years, too. Harvard,
many people bellevo, can forco the situation to
an Issue by making a bold stand In favor of
Cornoll. ale, in such an event, would be com
i pelted to give In, although it is current rumor
that tho New Haven men are disposed to do tho
fair thing. From u good source it Is leurned that
Harvard and Yale, always exclusive In a way,
want Cornell to cut loose from Pennsylvania and
Columbia, so that tbo latter colleges will not send
crows to New London. In a n ord. the Blue and
Crimson rrlll welcome Cornell, but they won't
stand for the others. Thero Is no personal ani
mosity felt toward " Pennsy" und Columbia,
but they aro regarded by tho two Now England
universities as "second class," and tbcroforo
beneath recognition In a big 'varsity race. Cor
nell will enter a three-cornered race with Yale
and Harvard on a three years' baBls, but not
until a lot of Bocret dickering has taken placo.
The college representatives will come together
In a very lew days. Lebmanu nnd Cook are lia
ble to coma to some definite understanding at
the dinner to be given in honor of tho English
I coach at Washington to-night.
It may surpriso those who havo been praying
for peace to learn that tho breach betweon Penn
sylvania and Princeton Is as wide as ever. A
tory is going tho rounds of collego men to the
effect that a well-known Pennsylvania gradu
ate, in order to open negotiations, invited a
member of tho Princeton Uradtiata Advisory
Committee to atlondtho recent Pennsylvania
Lafayette football gamo at Philadelphia. The
Princeton eleon was playing at Ithaca on that
day, and when It waa announced to tho crowd
onlranklintieldthatthescoreat the end of the
first half stood: "Cornoll, U; Princeton, 01"
there was the wildest kind of a demonstration,
In which thero wars cries of "Down with
Prliicetonl Hooray for Cornolll" Tear tho
Tigers to Pieces!" and other remarks of a simi
lar nature. A few moments later the crowd re
ceived this announcement:
"Princeton wins, 10 to 01"
'""nedlately there was a roar of disapproval
and hundreds of pcoolo promicd. The behavior
of tho Pennsylvania adherents became so vio
lently antagonistic to Princeton that tho mem
per of Fiaasnua Advisory Comniltteo suddenly
turned to the Quaker graduate and said:
.i ;.0"-illugrco with mo in the opinion that
the time for a reconciliation between the two
colleges is not rlpo. If your cloven should meet
tho ligerB with any such feeling as this crowd
manifests, the game of football would reccltea
black eye. 'lo attempt to open negotiations now
would be tho height of Impropriety." Tien tbo
Princeton man left Franklin Field feeling that
ho had boen smiled upon by Dame Fortune.
Tho twenty-round glove contest between Dim

Tbe Great Twa-Tear-OM Catt Taken to Brlsh
tan Beaeh a Owaer la Bildaace.
Hamburg, tha noted two-year-old that has oc
casioned such a stir among thoss Interested In
racing thoroughbreds for tha past few days. Is
now In snug Quarters at Brighton Beach. How
long he may remain thore is an open question,
as the identity of tho horseman who paid some
thing between $10,000 and $00,000 for him last
week has pot been dlsclosod. All that is known
about tha transaction outsldo of thos Imme
diately concerned has already been told, but tho
transfor of the colt from Louisville to Brighton
Beach forms an Interesting sequel.
Trainer William Lakeland brought Hamhnrg
on in a special car. and tha rained soa of
Hanover, who, it is said, carries a $100,000 In
surance policy, arrived at the pier adjoining tha
Pennsylvania Railroad depot, Jersey City,
shortly after 0 o'clock yesterday morning. Us
had as a travelling companion on of his favor
ite stablo mates, tho throe-year old chestnut
gelding Hurry Up, by imp. Lovegold Imp.
Haste. Both horses ended the first stage of
their trip In fine condition, and enMly parsed
muster before Lakoland and the other experts
who looked them over critically beforo proceed
ing further.
Then the heavily padded car was carefully
shunted onto n transfer boat nnd a start was
mode down tho bay In tow of n tug. Tbe Inten
tion was to land at Ulmcr Park pier, but In n
stormy passage as far ns Fort Hamilton ono of
the hawsers parted, and the tugnnd herproclous
freight returned to Jersey City. Thoso In chargo
agreed tbtt it would bo unsafe to attempt a
landing nt Ulmer Park, so n frosh start was
made, tho destination this time being Long
Island City. Hero tho car was gotten safely
ashore nnd onto tho Lonit Island railroad tracks,
whence It was quickly wbdrledofT to Sheepshcad
Bnv at tbe tqll of a special engine
The car was backod up along tho siding oppo
site tho Coney Island Jockey Club gato a few
minutes beforo 4 o'clock In the afternoon, and
t)j this time Doc ChnmberB had a number of
boys with xTrnpplngs on hand. Lakeland super
intended tho fastening of every wrap nnd
buckle, and then finished tho job by covering
tho colt from noso to tail in an equine mackin
tosh. Hurry Up was also toggod out in his
street clothes, and tho tnir stepped gingerly
down tho llttlo gangway from tho platform.
Hamburg show od Intelligent appreciation of
the cool mud Into which ho stepped, nnd even
seoniod to prefer the drenching rain to tho care
fully regulated teuiper.ituro in which ho bad
lived elncn Sunday. Neither horso showed a
scratch or blemish, or in fact any other
sign to Indicate that they bad travelled so far.
The horses wcro piloted without mishap to
William Lakeland's stables at tbo corner of
Lexington avenuo and tho Boulevard, just out
sldo the fenco of the Brighton Beach track.
Lakeland ch itted genially about tho trip, which,
hu said, hud been mauo without n hitch, but
when confronted with tbo present popular con
undrum, " Who is tho ownor t" ho buttoned his
overcoat collar across his mouth and drove off.
I.KilNOTON, Dec. 14. ttnrrctt D. Wilson, J. B.
Haggln's ICenluclcr rcpresontatlvo, said, when
asked If Haggln had bought Hamburg:
"I do not think ho Iiob. Tho other day, when
the horso was sold, ho asked mo what he
brought. I told him tho reported price was
$.10,000. Haggln gavo n low whistlo and re
plied that ho thought that n very stiff price."

Tho tic betweon John A. Morton, George E.
Armstrong.and J.Eberhard Faber In the monthly
handicap finals of the Staten Island Cricket and
Basoball Club was played off on Monday after
noon. Faber being off his game, the real strug
glo was between Armstrong and Morton. Up
to tho fifth holo the contest was featureless. In
the play for that bole both drives carried well
down close to the dam, and the second shots se
cured good lies to pitch greens from, Arm
strong's ball, however, went Into tho water
near the trco that stands sentinel on the edge of
the green, and Morton duplicated Armstrong's
filay. Going to the sixth and seventh holes
net was about even, with possibly some bettor
lies for Morton. He turned the corner two
strokes In the lead, and, as Armstrong could
not reduce this advantago In time, Morton won
out, but only by tbe difference in handicap, as
the following scores will Bbow:

In England a man has boon experimenting
with tires filled with gas Instead of nlr. Wheth
er It Us plain lllunilnating gas, hydrogen, or
somo other Is not stated. A tnedltatlTO rldor
opened the subject tho other day, and said:
"Tho Idea of using gas in tires Is something
that has been In my hcadjfor two or three years,
only I ,havo not mentioned It for fear of being
laughed at. I am not a ohemlst nor a me
chanic and I do not know exaotly tho dynami
cal properties of tho dlfforent gases, inoludlnc
air. My proposition is this: Tho resiliency,
or springiness, of a pneumatic tiro is chiefly
duo to tho robound of tho compressod nlr.
When ths tiro Is In use tho tread Is flattened nt
the point of contact with tho ground, and tho
nlr Is forced aside, and, of course, still further
compressed. Ab tho tiro rolls along tho pres
sure on tho tread is relieved at the roar of tho
flattened section first. The nlr Is crowding for
room, and rushes In as fast as tho pressure Is
relaxed, striving with etrongth and speed to
rclnflato the flattened section. This tends to
both lift and puah the tire in tbo direction it is
rolling, thus giving "lifo" to It. Leaving out
tho question of weight, molaBses would not bo
ns good ns water In tires, beoauee it would not
react in this wny as quickly. Alcohol would
bo bettor than water, and air bettec than tho
thinnest liquid. It Beems to bo a question of
tho mobility of tho medium.
"Then, with its moro tenuous nature and
greater expansibility, would not other rebound"
more quickly nnd make a livelier tiro than oirf
I say yes. Of courso, tho schemo would not bo
practical for ordinary road riding. A man
out for pleasure with hydrogen gas In his tires
might bo dangerous if ho left his whocl in tho
sun, and if ho got a puncture It woulO be all
day with him. Tiros would havo to bo made
differently In order to load them with gas, but
they would be juBt tbo thing for track racing.
In my opinion, tho Orst manager to have his
crnck-a-jack try it will play a winning trick."
Tho Frenchmen who were attracting atten
tion at Madison Square Garden last weok havo
tho Amoricnn-money itch In their palms, and
thoy havo been busy tho post two days nego
tiating deals with American manufacturers.
After riding in tho other rocos for which they
nro schodulcd during tbe next few weeks, thoy
-nill depart for homo, and It is safo to say thtt
every ono of them will bo under contract op
rldo some kind of American tiros or wboels.
From conversation with them through an in
terpreter, it would seem that American mak
ers pay racing men better than the foreign
manufacturers do. Stenhane, Taylore. Gou
goltx. and Lamberjack nil say that thoy lllce tho
racing game as it is conducted hero, excepting,
of courso, tho unfortunate Incidents pertain
ing to tho Gnrdcn track. At nny rate, they
expect to visit New York again next winter.
Tho ofllcers of the large divisions of the
League havo received rcpoatcd complaints from
tourists who mako a practice of riding In the
country that thero are ovldencos of the exist
ence pf several "Longuo" hotels and repair
shops. Tbe organization every year selects
an official hotel and repair shop In each city
and town whero special consideration Is to
be extendod to League mombors. As a
result of the cycling patronage nowadays,
there Is considerable competition for recog
nition as tho otllclal headquarters. Tho
result is that riders frequently stop at tho wrong
plnces. receive poor accommodations, and ac
cordingly abuse the League. Protests have been
made in this division, Pennsylvania and Massa
chusetts suggesting thatsomebetterregulatlons
be adopted. Chief Consul Elliott of the Massa
chusetts division haB Issued the following com
munication to the members of his division on
the question:
There Li much dissatisfaction over the fact that
many hotels and repair shops display tbe L. A.W. em
blem or Initials, and these conrey the Idea to travel
ling wheelmen that they hare been specially In lorsed
by the L. A.W. The appointment of what la known
as "ofllclal" hotels and repair shops is, upon the
part or both the L. A. W. and the hotel or
repair shop, a purely business transaction. Tha
Slaoe appointed receives the adrertlsement tnol
rntal to being appointed Dy the L. A. W.
The appointed hotel or repair shop granla to L. A. W.
riders special ratefl. For this division I proposa the
following remedy: We will hare designed a novel sign
which we will copyright. This sign will be furnished
only to such hotels and repair shops as are officially
appointed, which means only thoee that will execute
a suitable bond to giro certain discounts to L. A. W.
members only.
Tho Raco Committee of the Associated Cycling
Clubs bf this city will be In chargo of the annual
race from this city to Tarrytown on New Year's
eve. Great interest is manifested by tbo local
clubs in this annual fixture. Tho raco will be
run in any condition of weather. A stipulation
is that the competitors must not start from the
city beforo midnight on Dec 31, and the race
will begin at Fifty-ninth street and Eighth avc
nuo Instead of 110th street. It was stated
yesterday that members of clubs not afllllnted
v 1th the A. C. C. of N. Y. intend to compete, not
withstanding tho restrictive rules adopted by
the Itace Committee.

Tbe Melbourne Argus of Oct. 31 says:
V TXT SiM.n, tt, OTa11.lrnn,.n frf-lfst waanrutraf aiV
upon yesterday by Charles Ryan and Dr. Drew, at the
prlrate hospital of the latter In South Melbourne. Tho
Burgeons were extremely successful In their work,
and though Parsons Is now lying In tbe prlrate hoe
pltal In a condition which cannot be said to be derold
of danger, be wilt In all probability make a speedy
reoorery. It no unforeseen complications set In Dr.
Drew expects that he will be able to look on at the
Austral Wheel Itace, and to rlda In competition next
March.
Parsons visited this country last spring, with
the object of racing on tbo National Circuit.
Ills reputation as ono of tho Australian cracks
led tho American riders to expect n worthy
competitor, but be became ill before being thor
oughly acclimated. In addition to this no had

which he never fully recovered. lie returned
