This is the second time Simar has quit in a six-day race, He did the same thing last year, and I doubt if he will ever be permitted to enter another race. I admire Gougoltz for his pluck. Realizing that the loss of one lap will rob a team of the race, the plucky Frenchman got Rettich, the German | i rider, to team up with him. He told } me before he went out on the track that he would try to cut down the lead the other riders had on him, I hope he {s successful, Leander Team in Good Condition, Leander and his partner, Butler, look in fine condition, as do Walthour and Munroe, the Bedell brothers and | the other riders with the nine teams | still ted. I look for a great finish on Satur- | day night. I hope Root and Dorion! will remain tied with the leaders, as I would like to see these young nen make good in the race, They certainly are in fine condition, despite the fact that tMfey have been put through a hard ordeal so far. I think the nine teams that are tied at present will remain that way until Thursday.

After the adjournment the regular meeting of the League ‘was called. As a matter of course this meeting is being hold behind closed doors, and it Is, proper to make note of the fact that just before ‘the aforesald magnates entered the council chamber they handed out this cheerful statement to’ assembled scribes: “We are simply going inside to dispose of the usual routine business, eleot our officers and indulge in an exchange of views on the basoball situation, . Really, it will be a genuine old-fashioned love feast “There is no friction, and there will be no wrangling, for really we have nothing to wrangle over." Copntdering Consolidation, After dealing out their vit of valuable information the magnates went into ex- ecutive session and ‘calmly proceeded ‘to “wrangle” in an earnest effort to solve the very latest problem in baseball politics, ‘ In brief, the question that the National League ‘magnates are-now considering-s the advisability of vhioh calls for a consolidation of the National and American leagues into # (wolve-club organization, The National League men who think that this ‘tcon- solidation plan'iris the only true solution of the existing bi majority of the votes. insthelr own or- ganization, but, at the same ‘tim they did not intend to spring, thelr scheme until the close of the next playing ‘se: son, But the events and incidents of yest day forced the ‘fusionists” to show thelr hana, Br 'sh's Action Mespon President John‘, Brush, of the d York club,.was responsible for"thelr un- expected switch, It happened in this way.
