National meet ended with a guarrel among the ng men on account of fouling, the al of which has not been seen on the National circuit this year. The trouble arose in the five-mile National champion- ship race, in which were enterea all the cracks in atiendance at the meet except BSanger. Cooper started the fouling by trying to push Bald from the pole with his hand. Bald retaliated, and after that ex- ample from the leaders nearly every man who wanted the pole got it by pushing. Protests were entered with President Elliott of the league by Bald against G Cooper against Bald, Coburn inst Cooper and Gardiner ugainst Cal- . The finish was: Cooper first, W. ials took an hour to decide the the protests and the result was that Cooper was disqualified for fouling and the race given to Becker, with Acker second and Nat Butler third.
