TIME TO STOP THE WAR.
The Two Big Rival Athletic Associations
About 10 AmaIgamate.


ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE IsPArcH.i
NEW YORK, July 26-The proposed ANAL
gamation between the Amateur Athletic Union
and the National Association of Amateur
Athletes of America will be a move, when sue
cessfully terminated, that will effectually stop
the athletic war which has been in force
for 4, the past IL months between these
two bodies brought about by the first
named by passing the celebrated Travers
Island resolution on August Is of last year.
This resolution read to the effect that any
athlete competing in games held under rules
other than those of the three A. A U. should
be bar red from all games held under the three
A. A. q. rules. The resolution was passed to
wipe out of existence the rival body. The
three A. A. u. was formed as rival
to the other one, during the fall of 1887. The
N. A. A. A A. was organized and held its
first championship meeting in 1870. 1t had not
been in existence many months before IL as
sumed control. for all practical purpose of
amateur athletic affairs of America, and to-day
it stands, with a membership of 35 most of
which are the largest and wealthiest athletic
clubs in the country.
Mr. A G. Mills. delegate to the A. A, u,
from the New York Athletic Club. said that
he thought it was time the war between the 3A.
A. U. and N. A A A AS had better be
stopped. He has no doubt that the amalga-
nation will be effected satisfactorily to both
associations. but he was not at liberty to say on
what basis it would be done.
