Ave. $3 AMOS RUSIE IGNORED The National League Refused to Con- sider His Plea. EXTENDING THE BASE BALL SEASON Exciting Bicycle Contests on Co- lumbia Field. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES Amos Rusie, whom President Freedman of the New York club placed on the retired list for an alleged infringement of the rules, will have to give up all hope of a settlement in his favor Ly the conference of clubs. The National Base Ball League at Chicago has decided to disregard the plea of the crack pitcher of the Giants and uphold the discipline of the club. A deal was made between Baltimore and Pittsburg by which Brodie and Donnelly of the former team were exchanged for O'Brien, Stenzel and Horton. ‘The base ball magnates got down to bus- tness yesterday. At noon the meeting of the board of di- rectors was held. It was attended by Pres- ident N. E. Young, A. H. Soden, Bosto Harry Vonderhorst, Baltimore; J. Earl Wagner, Washington; James A. Hart, Chi- cago; T. H. Stuckey of Louisville and J. C. Auter of Pittsburg. The board audited the accounts of the President and prepared the annual business to be presented to the league meeting. The pennant was formally awarded to Baltimore. The Cincinnati club asked the board to straighten out the old base ball field trouble in that city. Von der Ahe claims an $8,000 interest in the field and has attached the gate proceeds from time to time. The boari did not care about opening the old fight. and as the dispute is in court it ad- vised the Cincinnati club to fight out its battles there. In addition to the members of the board, there are present from other clubs: Andrew Freedman, Walter Spalding, New York; John T. Brush, Cincinnati Chris Von der Ahe, St. Louis; W. H. Co- nant, Boston; A. J. Reach and John I. Rogers, Philadelphia; Charles Byrne, F. A. Abells and William Barnie, Brooklyn; F. De H. Robison, Cleveland. The afterncon meeting was called to order by President Young at 2 o'clock. As nothing but routine business was brought up, interest soon began to lag, and one by one the members descended to the rotunda. of the hotel, where they gathered in groups and discussed the situation with the hang- ers-on. Those more directly interested re- mained upstairs and carried through the routine work. The principal part of the session consisted in reading over the con- stitution, section by section, and giving a chance for the members to offer amend- ments as they were read. Only three amendments were offered, which were adopted. The first changed the date of the board meeting from the first Wednesday after the second Tuesday to the first Tuesday after the second Monday of November. tion 4 of the rules was abolished. This section provided for the fining of the um- nae from $25 to $50 for not reporting for uty. Playing Season Extended. ‘The most important change related to the Playing season. The present season, from April 15 to October 1, was extended to Oc- tober 15, giving two weeks more of sched- ule. The following resolution was adopted: “Resolved, That the president of the league and acting chairman are hereby au- thorized to appoint a committee on playing rules, not to exceed three in number, which committee shall be instructed to make a report of its work and any suggestion and alterations it may deem proper to the play- ing rules to the secretary of the league at least thirty days prior to the spring or scheduled meeting.” Copies of this report spall be forwarded by the secretary to thé respective club ‘members, to enable each to be prepared to discuss the amendments at that meeting. This committee shall act until its successor is appointed. The Western League. The Western Base Ball League convened in annual session at the Victoria Hotel. After a deal of talking, which generally centered about the avowed efforts of John T. Brush to gain control of the league, the last meeting adjourned toward midnight, having accomplished almost nothing. Mr. Brush’s pian, as carried out by the Min- neapolis and Indianapolis clubs,for dividing the surplus in such a way as to shut out the poorer ones was defeated, and to this extent the Cincinnati magnate was beaten at the first bout. During the morning the directors—Chas. Comiskey of St. Paul, John Goodman of Minneapolis, G. A. Van der Beck of De- troit and Mat Killilea of Milwaukee—met, and, after reviewing the official score, de- cided to award the championship to Min- neapolis. Many reports were circulated concerning the efforts of Mr. Brush to capture the two places vacated In the Western League by the expiration of the year franchises of Columbus and Grand Rapids. To further strengthen his hand it was said his supporter in the league would en- deavor to capture the greater portion of the surplus for the season—a fund that is formed by turning into it 10 per cent of all the gate receipts, and which has heretofore been divided equally among the eight clubs of the league. W. F. C. Golt of Indianapolis and John Goodnow of Minneapolis urged these meas- ures before the westerners, but their mo- tion was defeated by a vote of 6 to 2, thus leaving the old rule in effect. Before taking up the election of officers for the new year it was necessary, to fill the two vacancies. Applications were re- ceived from the retiring clubs, Columbus and Grand Rapids, and from Des Moines and Toledo. It had been understood that Omaha would bid for a place, but no such application was considered by the direc- tors. c A Von Der Horst Idea. Chicago Ccrrespondence of the Phila. Inquirer. Would the Baltimore team, body, soul and bat bags, draw in Philadelphia? Well, rather. There would be an awakening of interest in the national game in the great- est base ball city of the continent such as it has never known before, and I'm not overlooking the triumphant return of Billy Sharsig’s Athletics in 1833 at that. Such a thing was made possible this afternoon. Harry Von der Horst of the Orioles him- self made the proposition, but there were— and here comes the depressing point of the proposition—several qualifying contingen- cies. In short, Von der Horst agreed to transfer his team, including Ned Hanlion,to Philadelphia, provided that he be allowed to keep the receipts for the first two years, at the end of the two years the players to revert to Messrs. Reach and Rogers. Inasmuch as the present Baltimore team looks good to win the championship for another season or two, the wisdom of Mr. Von der Horst for the benefit of the Von der Horst family, is manifest. With a championship team, the profits in Philadel- phia would not fall short of $200,000 in two years, all of which-goes to prove that no matter what his complaints may be, Mr. Von der Horst is not suffering from paresis in any form. The offer was respectfully but firmly de- clined. Mr. Von der Horst then offered to sell outright his team for $125,000. This was probably a bluff, but it was not even met. The Baltimore-Pittsburg Deal. Frem the Baitimore Amertean. After Mr. Hanlon had tried, tn his quiet way, to get a hard-hitting outfielder all summer and failed, a message came to him two weeks ago that, because of fric- tion in the Pittsburg club, @ deal might be possible for Stenzel. This was just the opening the Baltimore manager wanted, He jourreyed to Pittsburg, where he and Patsy Donovan, the Pirates’ new man- ager, talked it over, with the resultant trade. Truby, Horton and O’Brien were taken in the trade as a sort of “job lot,” though the young men have already shown enough to Indicate that one or all may be “finds.” Truby was seen in action here in the latter part of the season of 1895. He came on then to take the place of “Ace” Stewart as second an for Chi- cago. It was his first appearance in the big league, and during bis Baltimore so- Journ he did excgptionally well, playing with « batting slump, "Later, he was taken a lump, which, together with the friction @ith Anson, caused him to leave Chicago for Pittsburg. He, O’Brien and Horton spent mest of season on the Toronto team, which ts the “farm” for Pittsburg. While, because of a superfiuity of third base talent, Baltimore will profit by the deal, Manager Donovan seems to have made no mistake, for he gets value received for Stenzel, especially as it was the belief that it wea necessary for Stenzel to go, in order to keep peace in the Piratical family. If Brodie throws into his work with Pittsburg the same dash and vim which he has heretofore shown in his base ball career, it will be a big addition to the “ginger” of Donovan's crowd. Donnelly, too, will work invaluably for Donovan's Plans. It became necessary to success for the Pirates to get either a first baseman or a third baseman. Lyons, who played third base last year, will now be put on first and Donnelly at third. As it seems that Dah- Jen of Chicago ts to take the place of Ely at short in an even trade, the Piratee, in Lyons, Padden, Dahlen and Donnelly, will be strengthened in the infield. Various Events for the Entertain- ment of the Patrons of Athletics. There 1s plenty of sport on hand for Thanksgiving day, and the local public will have no trouble to find amusement for the coming national holiday. One of the prin- cipal events will be the annual foot ball game, which in the past nas been such a drawing card, especially when the team of Georgetown University and the Columbia Athletic Club lined up against each other at National Park. This year the C.A.C. boys had some difficulty in getting a suit- able eleven, that would be a good drawing card, to play them on this day, but ar- rangements have nearly been completed to play a third game with the officers’ eleven of Fort Monroe, the team that played the opening game of the season this year with the Columbia boys in this city, resulting in a tle score. The local boys played a re- turn game at Fort Monroe with the same team and beat them, and now the officers want satisfaction, feeling confident that they can do the local boys. This game, like the other games on Thanksgiving day, will probably be held in the afternoon at the National Park, where there are plenty of facilities for handling a large crowd. Another good attraction for the day will be a ten-mile bicycle road race on the Con- duit road, between the members of the Arlington Wheelmen. It will be a handi- cap affair, and will have about twenty-five entrants. The decision to have the race was reached at the regular monthly meet- ing of the club, held Tuesday evening at the Losekam. Out of thirty members pres- ent there were twenty-eight who expressed thelr willingness to participate. Mr. B. F. Larcombe will do the handicapping for the rece, and the handicap Mmit will be five minutes. The start will be made at the spring near the entrance to Glen Echo, and the course will be up the Cenduit to the Anglers’ Club house and return, the finish being at Cabin John bridge. In the afternoon there will be the closing race meet of the season, and will be held at the International Athletic Park, under the auspices of the National Bicycle Club, a colored organization. These races prom- ise to be very interesting, and will be view- ed by mostly white people. The lst of events and the prizes have been published in The Star, and the entries are coming in fast, includirg not only the colored riders of the District, but most of the surround- ing cities. Another event that will come off, per- haps in the afternoon, will be the District tennis championship. Tom Driscoll, the Pacific coast crack, who came out ahead in the singles In the recent tennis tourna- ment, will meet J. H. Davidson, the holder of the present championship, and endeavor to wrest the honor from him. The game was to have been played some time ago, but on account of an injury to Davidson's arm it has been postponed, and is now set for Thanksgiving day. If the weather re- mains open the game will be very interest- ing, but if the day be cold the players will feel the effect and probably not play as good as they could under ordinary circum- stances. ‘The team of Kendall Green has complet- ed arrangements to meet the eleven of Co- lumbian University on Thanksgiving day, which will take place on the home ground of the deaf and dumb boys. This should be @ good game, as both teams are very even- | ly matched, and though the Columbian boys have played fewer games than Gallaudet, they have shown considerable strength, and can be relied upon to put up a good game. HIGH SCHOOL FOOT BALL. The Centrals and the Chevy Chase ens Meet. The Central High School foot ball team linéd up against the eleven from Chevy Chase yesterday on the grounds of the lat- ter, 18th street and Columbia road. A good many of the Chevy Chase players are in the departments, so it was nearly 5 o'clock before the game was called. Chevy Chase kicked the ball off, and it was being push- ed rapidly up the field by the excellent run- ning of the Central's backs, when Walsh, fullback on the Chevy Chase, broke his nose. Time was called, and the two cap- tains decided to stop the game on account of darkness and rain, neither side having scored. The line-up follows: Central. Position. Paskell . A. Barnard. Sumden.. H. Barnard. Hoge. Exley. Ball. Jolly (capt.). Kimmel. Oyster Albert Chevy Chase. Second Teams Play. The second team from the Western High School defeated the second team from the Central High School yesterday afternoon by a score of 4-0. Both teams played hard, and the score would have been tied, but the referee decided that Shipley ran foul in the second half, when he broke through the Western line and made a touch-down, so the ball was brought back, and was held near the center of the field for the last few minutes of play. For the Western Brewer and McGowan played an excellent game, while Shipley and Kelly put up the best game for the Central School. Score, 40. Line-up: Western, Position. Central. Waters :-Mahoney .-Miner At a meeting of the Chain and Sprocket Club Tuesday night, at its headquarters in the Montrose building, the following offi- cers were elected: President, Edw. Danen- hower; vice president, E. S. Maloney; sec- retary and treasurer, E. E. Wakefield; cap- tain, Chas. H. Jerman; first Neutenant, H. Walker; second lieutenant, Wm. J. Eynon. The club is rapidly growing, having a membership of thirty-one. A committee was appointed to make arrangements for a@ dance in January. Arrangements were also made for the lease of a sulte of rooms on 12th street northwest between M and N streets, which will be ready for occupancy by the 2i1st instant. FOR A PORTS MONUMENT. The Race Meet a Success, Though Rain Kept Many Away. ‘The race meet yesterday afternoon at Columbia Field for the Eugene Field monu- ment fund was a remarkable meet in more ways than one. The threatening weather kept many people away, who were under the impression that the affair would be pestponed, though there was a good sprink- ling of the ladies, who were brave enough to face the threatening sky, and in return witnessed some exciting sport. The crowd in attendance cannot be taken as a criterion of the success of the meet, either financial- ly or otherwise. There were many thous- and tickets sold, the returns from which are not in. ‘The races were about the best contested of any meet held in the city, and were thoroughly enjoyed. The meet was re- markable because Walcott at won his novice, after entering, Ug to his own statement, in eighteen sul this year, with no luck at all. meet was remark- able in another way. e favorites did not carry off all the honors, and no single rider succeeded in capturing two events.

The first heat of the half-mile handicap was run twice, owing to an over- sight the first time to give notice to the riders of the last lap. Schade.qualified for third place in the first trial, but in the second attempt he did not make any at- tempt to quality. ‘There were only two spills. Harry Greer and A. C. Moran in the final of the mile open struck each other on the first turn. Both riders were thrown, but Greer got the worst of the accident, and was carried off the field, while Moran remounted and kept on, securing a place. There was some misunderstanding about the final of this lap, and the riders thought they were made to ride more than a mile. Greer was found to have recelyed several bruises, but he Pluckily came out again and rode in the one-mile tandem. In the second heat of the two-mile handicap Wilson and Sims collided almost at the tape, and both were thrown. Neither suffered injury, but their chances of qualifying were ruined. The most serlous spill of the afternoon oc- curred in the final of the two-mile handi- cap. Little Eddie Smith and Elbard Hebard e mixed up near where Greer and Moran fell, and both were badly hurt. They were picked up and carried into the house, and an ambulance summoned for Smith who was hurt more seriously than sup- posed. Darkness and rain prevented the carrying out of the full program. The eighth event, the fastest unpaced mile, was cut off the Program, and the last race was the one- mile run and ride. It was getting dark quite rapidly when the men were going, and the rain came down steadily, making things nasty. There were only three en- tries, and the men rode and ran half of the distance. Sims managed to come out a winner by fully twenty yards, while the third man was more than that distance to the rear of the second. Mr. H. W. Tiernan, the general secretary of the Eugene Field Monument Fund As- sociation, was a spectator of the races, and he was much pleased. He came on from Detroit to witness the meet, and, while he expressed regret at the weather, he was high in his praise of what the local com- mittee had done for the worthy object. Even though the success was not as great as it might have been had the weather been more auspicious, he did not think that this detracted in the least from the praise due those interested. He was anxious to make an address to the racers and offi- clals*of the meet, thanking them for their assistance, but the rain prevented this.

The Columbia Athletic Club eleven is keeping up hard practice for the game Sat- urday afternoon which will decide the southern championship. The team was out on Columbia field yesterday afternoon for a short time, while the race meet was in progress, getting additional _ practice, though the playing was hampered by the crowd on the infield. Shields, Dickinson and Pat Wells will be in the Mne-up Satur- day and give additional strength to the team. Manager Cabrera has been. endeavoring to get a game with the Columbian Univer- sity eleven, but he has not been successful, as the college boys seem to be somewhat afraid of the athletic team. It is not at all unlikely that a game will be arranged with the strong team of Gallaudet College, which will come off some time next weck. Thanksgiving day will hardly close the season this year with the club, as arrange-, ments are now op foot.to play a game on Christmas day ith the strong team of the Elizabeth Athletic Club. This team plays the Orange Athletic Club today, a game which it has ben after for- some time, and now that it has been arranged negotiations have been opened looking to- ward the New Jersey team coming to Washington In December and trying con- clusions with the C.A.C. team.® Queer Wheclmen Hoye Warming.

The second game of the Basket Ball League was played last evening at the Washington Light Infantry Armory be- tween the teams of the Eastern Athletic Club and the Corcoran Cadets, the former winning by the score of 5 to 3. Three fifteen-minute innings were played, and during that period there were five men put out of the game by the referee for rough playing, while seven free throws were al- lowed during the game. Mr. James Bauby officiated as umpire, and he performed his duties in a fair and impartial way. The Easterns secured two goals on free throws, while the Corcoran Cadets secured only one. Judging from the playing neither of the teams had thoroughly mastered the new rules, under which the game will be played this season, and to this fact is due the large number of men put out of the game. This was the first game of the sea- son in which nine men played on a side, the size of the armory permitting this number.
