An imi>ortant. meeting of the American Racing Cyclists" t'nion. the newly organ ized body ' f professional riders, will be hwld this evening at S o'clock at the Hotel Regent. This will be the llrst meeting since the organization of the union was per fected last Tuesday at Philadelphia. As a result considerable business of Importance will be brought before the meeting tonight. A big increase in the membership is ex pected, and announcements in the shape of support from track owners and manufac turers is looked for. Meetings of the new i union will be held from time to time along he circuit, but the meeting tonight will perhaps be the most interesting Of them all. At the meeting tonight a good many of the local riders will join the movement. Among the number will be H. R. Steenson, Charles (Juuse, William Throop. Dlllie &ims and possibly some others. The first three flamed riders participated in the meet Sat urday. Harry Z. Greer, E. L. Wilson. I.ee Counselman, C. J. Mueller and R. L. French were entered, but did not ride. Besides the admission of candidates, ap plications from different sections of the country being received, the union will out line its proposed work, and take some ac tion most likely on a constitution and by laws. Reports from tracks that favor the movement will be received, the president, Eddie Eaid, having rec?ved a number of favorable communications on the subject. It is also likely that a committee will be appointed to hold a consultation with the track owners for the meet it ig called next Monday at the Broadway Central Hotel, New York city. All of the track owners in the east and central portions of the coun try have been requested to attejid this meeting, and already responses to the call are being received. 1V1XS A UK) TO 0 SHOT.

Pennsylvania and Cornell Have Done the Best Work. Harvard and Princeton played their initial games of foot ball Saturday, and berth did disappointing work. The Tigers fumbled badly in their gam; with Lehigh and lost many points by their poor work. Harvard wa* unable to cross Williams' goal line at all in the second half. Yale also played poorly, scoring^ut five points against the Wesleyan eleven. Cornell displayed much spirit and dash in their game against Trini ty, and far exceeded the total that Yalfc made against the Hartford, collegians lasjt Wednesday. Pennsylvania played the third game of the season, and eliminating some rank fumbling, playsd an excellent game. Up to date Pennsylvania has played the best pre liminary foot ball of any of the colleges, with the possible exception of Cornell.

Baker and Dunne were the opposing twirl ers. and it was about an even thing between them.eight hits being charged up against the former and nine against the Brooklyn man. With the score 3 to 3 at the close of the eighth inning, the Senators went out in rapid order in their half of the ninth, but Magoon, the first man up for the Dodgers in their half, walked to first. Daly's hit to Smith forced Magoon. but it was too late to double up Daly, and he started on a steal for second. Farrell's throw to Smith went high to center, and, as Mercer allowed the ball to pass him. Daly ran home with the winning run. Anderson, lately with the Senators, twice cut his former associates out of a run. In the second inning, after they had scored a run in the first on Mercer's triple and Sei bach's single, the Senators had three men on the bases with one out. Baker sent a fly to Anderson in left, whose fine throw to the plate caught Farrell. In the fourth Freeman's triple. Smith's fly to Griffin. Magoon's error and singles by Wrigley and Baker sent two men across the plate, and but for Anderson's second fine throw Carr would have scored a third run in the same inning. The Brooklyn people scored twice in the fifth inning. Daly sending a single to right and La Chance putting the ball over the left field fence. In the seventh Daly's triple and A1 Wagner's double sent another Dodger home. Score: Washi'gton. R.H.O.A.E. Brooklyn. R.H.O.A.E.

Cincinnati Won Both. The St. Louis Browns played two games with the Cincinnatis yesterday in the latter city and lost both, the first by 6 to 2 and the second by 4 to 0. Breitenstein and Hill pitched great ball for the Reds, but three hits being made off of each. The Browns played a good game, but their weak hitting was a great handicap. FIRST GAME. R. H. E.

Glantn Were Very Easy Prey Satur day Afternoon. The Senators made it three straight by winning both games of the double-header Saturday with the alleged Giants from New York. Each game was won in the eas iest manner by Irwin's men. Meekin in the first and Doheny in the second contest be ing hit hard. Dineen pitched for the home team in the opening gome and, while he was touched for nine hits, Doyle getting a triple and a homer, he kept the hits so well scattered that the visitors were never able to score two runs in an inning, the home people winning by S to 4. In the second contest Weyhing pitched one of his old-time games, allowing the Xew Yorkers but four hits and two runs in the seven innings played. The Senators hit Doheny for ten hits, scoring eight runs. The game was called at the end of the seventh inning be cause o-f darkness. Joyce did not play in either game, his place at third being taken by Get tig. Other Saturday Score*. Baltimore, G; Brooklyn, o. Baltimore, 3; Brooklyn, 1.

Baltimores open up a series at Bo?'.on to day. Saturday's double-header pleased the lo cal "fans." The Giants /&re pretty weak these days, but two victories in one day have bejn a long time coming to Washing ton. Tho signing of Pitcher Dunkle and Fir3t Baseman Davis will prove a ten-strike fcr Manager Irwin. Dunkle will do well with proper encouragement, and Harry Davis has few superiors at the initial bag, but he has been handicapped the past season by sickness. Little DeMont says second bii?e is "peaches" to play for a seasoned short stop, and he is nearly correct when Wrig ley's work is considered. "Zcke" has yet to make his first error at the second bag, and has had about twenty-five chance?. Gus Weyhing certainly pulled himself to gether in the second game Saturday. But four hits were made off of Augustus, and the Giants are quite a few at the bat. "Buck" Freeman will nearly lead the big league's batsmen when the final figures are all in. He and Tom Daly are now in the lead, but of course neither have played the number of games that little Keeler has, and for that reason the latter will be the real leader. Tie Brooklyns lost lt? per cent in the per centage table last week, while Washington gained 19, The present series in Brooklyn may decide which of the two clubs will oc cupy the eleventh position at the end of | the season. Notwithstanding the booming little Casey is receivirg, his work at third demon strates that his right position is beh*ni the Vat. He makes good plays, but lacks steadiness in a pinch. *\Jud" Smith's work at the third corner has been an eye-opener for the Washington "tans," as he has been about the best they have seen for many seasons. The newspaper writers inside the Eastern League circuit all concede that Smith was the best third baseman in that organization. Saturday night Manager Irwin notified President Young that he had concluded to retain Players Freeman, Casey and Baker, who were drafted from the Toronto club under certain conditions. Brooklyn has notified the league's presi dent that they have drafted McFarland of the Montreal, Gray of Buffalo, Morse and Kelly of Ottawa, Cassidy of Providence and Cockman and Fertsch of Reading. Cleveland has drafted from the Western League Inflelder Burke, who finished the season with Minneapolis, and Outfielder Beecher of the Mansfield, Ohio, club. Burke is the third baseman who started the sea son with the Western Association, and was recommended to Mr. Wagner by Ted Sulli van. Proctor, the local player, who was with Dubuque, also speaks highly of Burke. Y or Credit. MAYKU & PETT1T. tbe Great Provider*, 4ir?-l7 7th 8t. Cash or Credit.

MEET OF THE CYCLISTS' I MOV The Racine Men Rend} for Snapen HiiMi l?>* the L. A. W. The first race meet of the American Rac ing Cyclists' t'nion has been run. The riders have laid themselves open to harsh action on the part of the chairman of the racing board of the League of American Wheelmen. They are practically courting this action. Not only will they bo susju-nd ed, but their trainers as well. The officials of the meet will receive some attention, and the track of the Park Cycle Club will probably be placed on tho blacklist because the Saturday meet was held without a sanction. There were many who did not be lieve that the new organization would live long enough to give a meet. The tirst meet has not only been held, but others are ar ranged. and the rest of the season, con tinuing to October will witness plenty of good racing. Not a single one of the riders regrets the step he has taken. They are resolved to stick together. Two of tho local league officials cornered Major Taylor, the colored wonder, and endeavored to have him desert the union, go over to Baltimore and ride In the league circuit races Saturday afternoon. It was held out to Taylor that by going over to Baltimore he could win the sixty point first championship in a walk, and the league would confer upon him the title of champion. Taylor rejected the offer, say ing that if he could not win the champion ship in competition with men of his class, so far as riding is concerned, he did not want it at all. The feferee of the meet Saturday was Mr. Walt Wilson of BufTalo, N. Y., the eastern representative of the Associated Cycling Clubs of California, the organization which, upon its secession from the league a year or so ago. drew up a set of racing rules that are more modern and more suit ed for the sport. Mr. Wilson stated that it was posa?-e for a general crusade against the league being made, relieving it of the racing game entirely. "The control of racing brings in a lot of money to the league," said he, "but it seems as though most of tho money thus secured is spent in salaries and other items labeled as expense. The present crusade is the biggest thtLt has ever been made against the league, and if the riders stick together there is absolutely no chance of them failing. It is also likely that the amateur racing will be taken away from the organization. The Associated Cycling Clubs of California stand ready to take hold of the matter, run it la a business-like way and do away with many of the ob jections regarding the sport that now ex ist. The chances are that at the meeting next Monday something definite in this re spect will be taken. The owners of tracks, having plenty of money invested in their enterprises, do rot care to have arbitrary rules governing racing which interferes with the successful management of their race tracks." It was Impossible for Mr. Wilson to -re main over in the city for the meet Wed nesday evening, when the first circuit event of the newly formed circuit will be run off. His place will be filled by Mr. A. G. Batchelder, who is with tho racing crowd, and who is a well known authority on cycling affairs. The list of events for the Wednesday race meet were published in The Star Saturday, and will be run according to the list. While the meet Saturday was an ail-pro fessional meet the meet Wednesday will have one amateur race on it, a one-mile event for the championship of the District. The amateurs have nothing to fall back upoiv The track will be blacklisted and suspended, and the amateurs who contest will suffer a like fate. This does not de ter some of the riders, however, who have expressed a willingness and a determina tion to ride. The race will be run off if there are only six starters. The present District championship is held by C. J. Mueller, and as the honor is one that be longs to an amateur it was decided^ to run the contest over again. A noticeable thing at the meet Saturday was the attendance of the league officials and some of their cohorts in a special box. They made a list of the riders in the dif ferent races, and also a list of the officials and trainers This list will be forwar! d to Albert Mott. who will wield his ax and suspend every one. Injrintr the course ?,f the meet the announcer informed tlv au dience that as two of the leading oifi.-iaU of the local division of the league w. r^ In the grar.d stand tho racers wondered if their names would be Included in the list f those suspended. This created a g< ? ? ral laugh. Immediately after Wednesday's races lh>? crack riders will go to St. Louis and rura Saturday and Sunday.
