One more full series of games remains in the schedule of the first meeting of west- ern and eastern clubs in the west, and the time is near at hand for comparisons to be made as to the relative merits of the two Made by the Two League sections of the league. When next Sun- day’s games have been played, each of the eastern teams will have met each of the western organizations, and then it will be fair to calculate the percentage. As a rule, the eastern clubs are regarded as stronger, and the comment is freely heard nowadays that when the western clubs come east next week there will be several long, steep toboggan slides encountered, causing some material changes in the standing of clubs in the league race. Including yesterday’s games, the eastern teams fared as follows on the western dia- monds: Won. Lost. Per ct. 3 -7o Baitimore . 0 Boston 7 5 583 Philadelphia 6 - AGL New York. 6 7 401 Washington . 6 8 428 Brooklyn .. 4 9 80T But Washington’s percentage on the basis of games played away from home i: really higher, as the club played fo’ games befors starting west, one in Balti- more and three in Brooklyn, three of the four being won. Thus the record of the trip of the Senators should be scored nine wins and nine losses, making a percentage ) on foreign grounds. If, as Capt. estimates, his team will get the third game from Louisville and one from Chica- the rd for the west will stand eight wins and ten losses, or .444 per ceni, and for the entire trip away from home eleven wins and eleven losses. or .500 per ms has a Washington League team made so good a r eign grounds in so extended a tou be taken into con idents during the n eration that, barring t four or five days, Capt.

A CYCLING TROPHY. Washington and Baltimore Teams Will Compete for It. Mr. J. H. Flint of Baltimore has offered a magnificent silver loving cup to be raced for by cycling teams representing Wash- ington and Baltimore. The cup fs of sterl- ing silver, fifteen inches high and mounted on an ebony pedestal. It is handsomely wrought and chased for a rowing cup, but this work will now be changed to sult the sort of contest for which it will be the prize. It ts lined with gold, and is in every way one of the handsomest trophies ever donated to a cycle contest. There will probably be five monthly races, so that the contests will continue until the fall, alternating on the Baltimore and Washington tracks. Handsome gold medals will be engraved to become the permanent property of the men winning. It is thought that this cup may be the start to intercity challenge races. As the cup will go either to the Maryland or the District of Columbia divisions of the league, it 1s calculated that challenges from the loser to the winner in the event may con- tinue indefinitely. The events will be counted by points, the team having the greatest number of points being decided the winner. As there will be six men in the contests, the first man across the tape in each event will count six points for his team; the second man, five; the third, four; the fourth, three; the fifth, two, and the last, one, so that there is an Incentive for every man to finish close up. This makes it a race from start to finish. Jt is probable that the cycle chiefs in Baltimore and Washington will shortly hold a meeting to, decide on the arrange- ments. i = CHAMPIONSHUA OF THE SOUTH. Local Wheelmen. Interested in the Coming Race at Charlotte, N.C. The local wheelmen are interested in the coming race for the championship of the south, which will be held this afternoon at Charlotte, N. \C.—a red-hot bicycle town. The race will form a part of the annual “Diamond Tournament” of the Charlotte Cycle Club, an occasion which is made a public holiday in the town, and to which the local papers devote large space. ‘The race this year is expected to be more than usually interesting, and the competi- tion is expected to be greater. According to a recent decision of the racing board, Washington can be included in the southern states, therefore making the local riders eligible to enter in the championship events. ‘This was something that for a number of. years had been denied them. The only Washington representative that ever attended the events was Fred Schade, and he was eligible, according to the man- agement, from the fact that he was a na- live of Virginia. ‘This Is the first year that the races are open to the local riders, but pone of Washington's speedy men, outside of Schade, have decided to enter the event. However, it may be that one or two men from this city will go down to Charlotte on Monday or Tuesday, though the probabil- ities are against any such step being taken. The entries in the southern champion- ship mile race this year are larger than for many years past, and the race will have to be run In heats. The list of entries embraces such well-known riders as Fred Schade, Co- lumbian University; R. V. Connerat, Savan- nah Wheelmen; Geo. N. Adams, Jacksonville Wheelmen; Owen Kimball, Louisville Cycle Club; Wm. H. Connery, Savannah Cycle Club; Reddy MeMakin, G. B, Fitzsimmons, Wm. Ward and Harry Saddler of the Char- lotte Cycle Club; Fred B. Maxwell and Wm. ‘T. Mixson, Columbia, S. C., Cycle Club: c. A. Vredenburg, Clarence Saunders, Har- ry Elkes and Frank D.

He will make a strong bid to again capture the championship. Fred Schade of the Washington Road Club and the Columbian University of this city will make a strong bid for the cham- pionsHip honor. Hg is a bona fide resident of old Virginia, his recognized legal home being in Herndon, Fairfax county, Va. Nevertheless he is always looked upon as one of Washington’s boys, on account of his staying here during the winter at col- lege. He will also represent his college at the soutkern championship, and on May 80 will represent Columbian at Berkeley Oval. Schade is thought to have a fair show for first place, providing no accident befalls him. He is very game, full of grit and courage in a race and never knows when he is beaten. He left town Tuesday for Greenwood, S. C., where he entered the races held under the auspices of the Green- wood Cycle Club. He entered in the quar- ter-mile open, the half-mile open, one-mile open, three-mile open and five-mile handi- cap. These races were held yesterday. From Greenwood he will at once proceed to the “Diamond Tournament” at Charlotte, where he will compete not only in the one- mile race fcr the championship of the south, but in the quarter-mile open and the ore and two-mile handicap races. He will return to the city immediately after the race, and will arrive some time during the night of the 2ist. Schade has several rec- ords to his credit, among which are the three-mile southern competition record of 7.34, half mile in 1.04 and a quarter of a mile, standing start, in 31 3-5 seconds. He also holds the one-mile District exhibition record of 2.12. Fer several years he has held the cre-mile championship record of Virginia, which he won for another year last fall at Portsmouth.

Wyckoff, who recently offered to provide the Cornell navy with a rowing tank, has rescinded his offer. There was a hitch in regard to the location of the build- ing. The following, which is Mr. Wyek- off’s letter to the athletic council of Cornell University, explains the matter of the row- ing tank and the turbulent state of ath- letic affairs at Cornell to a nicety: “In view of the fact that so many mis- understandings and so much friction has been caused between certain members of the student body, of the faculty and of the Loard of trustees of Cornell University over the location of the tank building which I heretofore offered to put up and equip for the use of Cornell crews, I deem {t for the best interests of all concerned (excepting, of course, the crews themselves, who must bear the brunt of the misfortune) to for- mally withdraw my offer, with the under- standing that I will give'an amount equal to that which would have been expended upon the tank to other departments of the university, as I may t. I regret that this action is necessary, but J shall be free to add that in my humble opinion ail ath letic interests at Cornell will suffer until we shall have made some radical changes in methods and management. Very truly yours, G. WYCKOFF.” TO ROW THE NAVAL CADETS. Colambia‘’s Eight Going to Annapolis Saturda: The Columbia Athletic Club's eight will row the Naval Academy crew at Annapo- lis Saturday. The crew will comprise Mc- Gowan, stroke; Mann, Blunt, 6; Tal- madge, 5; Wells, 4; Baker, 3; Hecox, 2; Clarke, bow; McGee, coxswain. The crew will leave for Annapolis at 8:30 Saturday morning, and club members will follow at vo weeks ago the Bal- timore crew rowed the Annapolis boys and beat them by four seconds. Last Saturday the University of Pennsylvania freshman crew defeated them. Next week the Poto- macs of this city will try their luck with the cadets. Intercolleginte Bicyclists. The bicycle champfonships of the Inter- collegiate Athletic Association will be held at the Manhattan Beach bicycle track next Wednesday afternoon. A rider who will likely manage to lower some intercollegi- ate record is Fred. Schade of the Colum- bian University. Schade won forty-four first and second prizes last year. He h the Virginia state records from one-ii of a mile up to five miles. He is in train- ing for the intercollegiate championships, a, having a mile record of 2 minutes 5 seconds, ought to prove one of the i dangerous men at the mecting. Junior Nines. Saturday a well-played game took place between the Young Victors and Stoddards on the grounds of the former in West Washington, the Victors winning by 9 to 0. The clever battery work of Doyle and Graves and the fielding and batting of Stanton, Alexander, Fachel and Grummell were the features of the game. ‘The Vic- tors are open to challenge from all junior teams. The Roschuds have defeated the Hay- seeds by 28 to 14, The winning team would like to hear from all teams whose players are under fourteen. Address Raleigh Luck- ett, 517 11th street.

Upon the earnest recommendation of the Lake Carriers’ Association, strongly in- dorsed by the chief of engineers, Secretary Lamont has entered into an arrangement with Constructor Donnelly, who is engaged in the construction of the big Soo lock at St. Mary’s Falls, to complete the lock ready fo: use of vessels by the 3lst of next July, which is nine months ahead of the date fixed in the contract for the com- pletion of the dock.

CERES EXEXEXEREXERER SERRE ERCEEESERS EER EREESE EE MELEE ON A CARD. After an established business for 50 years in Baltimore, where we absolutely rule as doing the largest jewelry busi- ness south of Mason and Dixon line,we have branched out and opened here in Washington, next to the “Star” office.

Our method of doing business enables the honest and thrifty to invest in and posssess strictly high-class Dia- monds, Watches and Jewelry upon the cash payment of a small sum and a dollar or so cach week!

COLORED DELEGAT What the President Thought of the Case of a Remarried Widow. The President has vetoed the bill grant- ing a pension to Caroline D. Mowatt, as the widow of Alfred B. Soule. The veto message recites the fact that the beneficiary was penstoned originally at $25 a month as the widow of Alfred B. Soule, a major in the Maine regiment, who died in 1864.
