Each Was to Have Won, but an Outsider Carried Off Ono, ST. LOUIS, Mo., Aug. 31.—The Repub- lic to-day makes sensational charges against Charles Murphy, Fred J, Titus and L. D. Cabanne, the three crack clars B cycle riders who participated tn the Diamond Tournament given in this elty on Saturday last under the sanction of the League of American Wheelmen. There were three class B events on the programme and, according to two of the riders themselves, it was tixed that cach of the three named should win one of the events. Cabanne, the paper says, was to be allowed to take the mile open, the most important race, as this was his home, Murphy, however, so Cabanne and Titus assert, broke faith and carried off two of the races. Terrill, a California man, honestly landed the third, shut- ting out the two men named, alex Laing, a local amateur, who heard the three class B men discussing the races afterwards, sald that Murphy gave as an explanation of his conduct that his firm ordered him to ride out the ri » having hedrd of the agree- ment. The matter has been called to the at- tention of the local members of the Na- tional Racing Board of the League. The offenders may be ruled off for life or for @ period proportionate with the offense. The punishment is left by the racing rules to the discretion of the Board. The following telegram was sent to- day to George D, Gideon, Chairman of the National Racing Board, League of American Wheelmen, Philadelphia, by the local members of the Board: “Suspend Cabanne, Titus and Murphy pending investigation. — Evidence that they fixed race here Aug, 2.
