THE WAR BETWEEN THE ATHLETES.
REPLY OF THE ASSOCIATION TO THE UNION
CONTEMPORARIES MADE


Walton Storm pres dent Of the National Amateur
Athletic Association of America, desires 10 reply to
u letter of the managers of the Amateur Athletic
Union. published I'm Thursdays newspapers.
ain that article says Mr.. Storm, the statement
Is made that, In order to detract from the Detroit
meet ne, the National Association determined to hold
a Western championship meeting at ST. Louis ms
statement is not true. Tile Amateur Athletic Union
had announced national championship meeting at
Detroit, while the meeting at ST. Louis was an
nounccd solely as a championship meeting OF the
West and was In no sense intended to be national
oncS
Mr. Storm says that the Manhattan Athletic Club did
not telegraph to the Irish Gaelic team that the
National Association championship meeting had been
postponed, himself, president of the Nationsl
Association, sent the message. lie says also that
the Union has rot given the National Amateur
championship meeting Of America for this year, for
the reason that amateur athletes were arbitrarily
barred from their meeting.
I" AS to the difficulty which has arisen with regard
to the Irish tcam,r he says, 81 Will make the fol-
lowing statement az the actual facts in the matter:
The statement which has been repeatedly made In
the press that the Irish team Induced to COM
pete in the National Association championship on
Saturday next without knowing tho true state OF
affairs Is absolutely false. On the arrival IN this
country Of John Cullinan, the manager of the team,

disappearing nothing lie was In Ncw-forK 'l'y
for one week and had conferences with members OF
both organizations and with neutral parties. After
this delay, and when he personally assured Inc, he
thoroughly understood the matter, he agreed to com
pete in the National Association championships
"That the athletes Of America do not propose to
be dictated to by the Amateur Athletic Union and to
be told that they must must not compete In those
games is proved / think, by the fact that In the

Union has:
First-Tred TO coerce the athletes Of the United
States by resolution which is absolutely Illegal and

secondly-Tricd TO boycott the Irish team, and

A NEV COMIC OPERA STAR.
MISS FANNY RICE ANXIOUS TO HEAD A TROUPE
OF HER OWN.

The starring fever is spreading, and before long
will probably assume the proportions of an epidemic
among comic opera singers. The latest victim to the
disease is Miss Fanny Rice who has become 50 pop
ular as Nadjy at the Casino. The fever has been
growing secretly upon Miss Rice for some time, but
the violent attack which brings definite action with it
did not occur until few days ago Her first plan
TO go the road under the management of her
husband. DR.. G. W. Purdy, and with much secrecy
writing either musical comedy light opereita
for her This secrecy observed because Miss Rice
was fearful that the Casino management might throw
obstacles in her way. Nevertheless, Mr. Aronson
heard of 1t, and when asked what he intended doing
about it, only laughed pleasantly and said "Why
nothing, of course. Our relations have always been
pleasant, and Will be shall be sorry TO lose
her but her contract with this house expires the
first Of May, and her time after that is entirely
at her own disposal"
Other managers also heard of Miss Rices ambition,
and several offers made to her. One of these
came from Jacob RCscnhal, who governed the fort
unes of The Little Tycoon last summer. lnfOrna-
ton from Trustworthy source has 1t that Miss Rice
promptly accepted this OFFER Autographs and other
printing have been ordered from the Central Liiho-
