JOHN, New Brunswick, Feb- ruary 3.— A sensation has been created in skating circles here by dispatch from Detroit saying that Julian Fitzgerald, past president of the International Skating Union. has announced that Charles Gorman, world amateur champlion skater, de- manded $500 and expenses to com- pete in the races in Detroit next week. Gorman was quick te deny the re- port and also to declare that it had not been his intention to go to De- troit. He said he had made up his mind to this effect before he learned that Fitzzerald had made the charge against him. Fitzgerald's statement was to the effect that he had received a tela- gram purporting to have been sent by Gorman saving that the champion wanted $500 and expenses for partici- vating in the Detroit meet and that he would only race against time. “I sent neither wire nor letter to Detroit,” said Gorman. “Therefore I did not demand $500 or any other expenses. I had not entered for the meet. When learning of Fitzgerald's charges I immediately sent a tele- gram to him informing him that it anyone had attempted to make such an arrangement in my name he was TROUSERS To Match Your Odd Coats "SPORTS.
