er comes out boldly with tho assertion
that the team under the manapement of
John J i;vers lias u netter enanee to win
the National l.capue pennant than
the Pittshurps, provldlnp. of course,
that the Giants fall to come up to expec
tations. Hresnnlian ailed his views when
asked recently why he slpned a Cub con

Harney Dteyfuss. ' replied Itnper. "be
cause I never Rave my word that 1 would
play with them after I settled up with
the Catdlniils. I accepted what I believed
wa the best proposition available Murphy
offered me a fine contract to po with the
Cubs, but It was no better than the ono
Preyfu.-s was teady to pay. Hermann,
too. was anxious to secure me for Cin
cinnati, and probably would have topped
both .Murphy nnd Oreyfuss In point ot
salary llpures. I had all 1 wanted of a
Ioer In St Louis, and naturally, having
fxp'-rlcnced the sensation of i-atchliip for
a world's champion team In Nrw York
I t..i-:PQ. f teunteit tn fret with an
other winner The Cubs looked pretty
pood to me on paper, nnd as livers is a
pal, 1 decided to slpn and do my beil.
"1 tlrinls btdl've that the Cubi will
finish ahead of the Pirates nnd will come
verv near wlnnlnp the flap The Cubs
would have taken the pennant Inst year
with a little moto strenpth In the box.
If we pet Into the world's series, there'll
be ii slice of hip money for me which
there wouldn't be a chance of plcklnp up
if I hsd pene to Pltt'burp or Cincinnati.
The Cubs have a greatly strenpthened
pitching ilepattment, an Improved out
field and a corklnp pood shortstop in Cor
rlden to teplace Tinker. Archer and yours
truly will make thlnps hum behind the
bat. and that means death to base steal
ets I am satisfied tn play ball and let
somebodv else do the manaptnp In future.
It makes" life easier. We've pot the Olants

Ptesldcnt Johnson of the American

uotnmary tocharpe an earned run npalnst
a bowman whenever n batsman, maklnp
a safe hit. pot around to the plate throtiph
the medium of stolen base", sacrifice hits

I'lphty members of locnl clubs who pre
viously hod not. earned their spurn over
hill and dale started In the McCaddlu
I.ceum run for novices .vrstetduy.
Thlrtteti clubs were represented, but of
there three orRiinlzutlous did not start
enouph men to liavo u chance for the train
trophy. It wan a rattllnp race thrnuphout
for both team mid Individual prlzis, the
honors In both falllnp to that hustllnp
ounB club the .Sheridan A. C. Thn chief
factor In tho success of tho Hast Hldera
was the good tunning of S. Hllvcrsteln,
who crossed the Mulsh lino llfty yards In
fiunt of C. Pores, another Sheridan man,
The start was tuado from the head
quarters of tho SlcCaddln Lyceum at
Berry and South Third streets. Brooklyn,
and the course of flvo and a half miles
was crowded by friends of the contestants.
Ninety entries had been received, hut a
number of theso found out at the last
moment that they were not novices and
did not risk Incurring the wrath of the
registration committee by starting. Tho
route was nlnnp Berry street to Division
avenue, to Bedford avenue nnd along that
much travelled thoroughf.iro to the Grant
statue at Berpen street. The runners
circled the statue and returned by the
same Ktuots to the clubhouse.
The Sheridan boys cre alwa.vs tn the
first flight, with Sllvcrsteln coaching Pores
and keeping close company with him
until after the turn for homo was made.
Sllvcrsteln opened a pap then and
finished fifty yards In front of his club
mate. Pores had a safe lead over Skellet
of the Pennant A. C and was nearly sixty
yards before the Pennant man at thn
finish. The Presentation team was tnadu
up of very young material and th little
fellows ran with great gomeness against
the more seasoned runners on the other
teams. They landed three men In the first
eighteen, but the tu II end was not unite
strong enouph to offset the advantapo
pained by the Shrridans In taking both
first and second places. The Sherldans
won the team prlzo with a total of J2,
with the Presentations In second place
with 11 1. Six clubs had complete teams of
tlve finishing among the sixty-nine men
w ho were cheeked off by the Judpes.
There were live individual prizes and
of these two went to P. SIurrHy of the
Presentation Club, who finished fourth and
took the extra prize for being the first
of the Catholic Athletic League to finish.

There was a high wind, which at times
iipet the calculations of the players when
Judging kicks. Vet a singular fact about
the contest was that each side tallied lis
points while playing against the wind.
Tho West Hudsons got their two goals in
the first jierlod nnd the limit-falls regis
tered thelra In thn second half. Kor the
last ten minutes of play tho score was a
tie and tho tlmo was marked by strenuous
football.
Capt. SlcCaffery of the Innlsfalls won
thn toss and chose tu play with the wind
al his back, but the West Hudsons, fa
miliar with the possibilities of their fast
field, Immediately started a rushing ganio
and registered their first goal before tho
Wtsterners got their bearings, Knowles
scoring after five minutes of play. 1en
nox registered the second threo minutes
later.
Chanpln? goats appeared to work won

Saratoga Is the only track to open Its

Nothing has been done so far to put the

plenty of time If It Is the plan to put on a
meeting mere In June.
The plan already discussed by the
various racing associations, which believe
that Belmont Park Is the logical placo
to start a renewal of racing. Involves a
cash guarantee of at least $60,000 to :over
expenses. Tho atory told by well In
formed turfmen Is that each racing asso
ciation was asked recently to nut ud

The plan met with some opposition and
also caused considerable friction. It haa
been suggested that the Westchester

assistance, while Saratoga should be
equally able to paddlo its own canoe.
If Kngetnan can make arrangements to

look that way Just now
The I'otirt of Appeals meanwhile has

decision in the Paul Shane case. Under
the Scudder decision, affirmed by the Ap
peltate Division, the Shane case Is cal
culnted to permit the tracks to open under

COLLEGE FENCERS TO
ADOPT SABRE EVENTS
Many Changes in Rules Talked
Over and Matter Left
to Committee.
Routine matters held away at the an
nual meeting of the Intercollegiate Fencing
Association held In the Hotel Astor yes
terday morning. The delegates realized
that now rules are Imperative to prevent
long drawn out and tiresome contests
and also that the monotony wilt be varied
by the Introduction of a championship
for sabres. The withdrawal of the Army
team detracted from the glamor of this
year's fixture and steps wero taken to In
duce tho West Pointers to return to the
fold.
Columbia, which scored an over
whelming victory for the tenm champion
ship on Saturday, was further honored by
Its representative, A. N. Clough. "being
elected president of the association. K.
Cochrane of the Naval Academy was
elected vice-president and W. R. Scott
of Cornell secretary-treasurer.
The pressing need for a revision of the
rules was recognized by the appointment
of a graduate rules committee to go over
the conditions laid down for fencing at
present and tlraw up a new code. The com
mittee Is: H. B. Parker. Pennsylvania;
J, A. .McLaughlin, Harvard ; M. Larimer,
Naval Academy ; P. Allison. Cornell ; S.
Pitt, Columbia; H. Chalmers, Yale, L.
Oatdner. Princeton, and W. D. Bridge,
Howdoin.
In arranging the new rules the com
mittee will be asked to draw up a code
to govern sahre contests, aa It was decided
that beginning with the championship
meet of 1HH 11 sabre championship would
ho added to the contest with foils, the
only style of fencing recognized hy the
association hitherto.
There was a discussion over the with
drawal of West Point from this year's
championships and the feeling was
general that the return of tho Army fen
cers to tho fixture would by the best for
tho sport. With this Idea In view the fol
lowing resolution was passed to bo sent
to the Superintendent at West Point :
"JlesoIrerJ. That the Intercollegiate Fenc
ing Association deeply regrets the with
drawal of tho United States Slllltury
Academy from tho Intercollegiate cham
pionship competition and sincerely hopes
thnt conditions In the futurw will be such
that tho Army will continue Its affilia
tion with the association."
The subject of the new rules was too
large to bo summarily disposed of, but
the urgent need of n change In condi
tions brought nhout a discussion of the
main points. When the grndue.te com
mittee has done Its work a meeting of
tho association may be called for next
recember to ratify the rules or the mat'
ter may he left In the hnnds of the com
mittee In charge of next year'a cham.
pinnshlp. In the course of the talk the
following suggestions wore made and no
doubt these changes will be Incorporated
In tho conditions governing future con
tests; To have one professional Judge and two
amateurs, instead of three amateurs, the
professional to art s director.
A touch shnll count If mnde on the up
per part of tho arm from shoulder to el
bow mid thnt such a touch shall not bo
deemed n foul as at present.
Adoption of the rule of the Amateur
Fencers Longuo of America which calls
for n fencer to be declared tho winner
who makes the first flvo touches, regard
less of the time rule that governs Inter
collegiate contests now.
In deciding the indlvtrtunl championship
tho Olympic rule regarding tics shall be
adopted, so thnt In case of a tie of two
or more men the fencer shall bo declared
the champion who has had the least
touches scored against htm.

literally awamped. They are used as offi
cial headquarters of the rival arms of
Undo Sam's service, but many adherents
of the academies are forced to look for
quarters elsewhere. The hotels, therefore
have become an Important factor. In Ni
York are fifty or more hotels of the first
class, several of them among the blgge.t
In the world.
The Brush 8Udlura. with Ita 40,000
seats, Is finely adapted to football aj
well as baseball, It Is possible to la out
the gridiron In such a manner that pri"
tlcally th" entire length of the chall.
rlbbed field will be within opposite ends of
tho covered double decked grand stand.
In this structure alone more than IS.ooa
reserved seats may be obtained. whiU
there Is room for 16,000 more In th" open
bleachers. Because of tho fact that not
more than CS.00U tickets can be sold
for the games played at Franklin Field
there Is much dissatisfaction. With th")
elevens lining up at the Polo Grounds,
there would be a vastly greater amount
of money to be turned over to the sol
diers' and sailors' charity, long supported
by this means.
