HIS BENEFIT SHOW THE CAUSE.

"Tom" S. vogellus of the Scottish-Ameri-
u, and is now regarded as a professional.
Vogellus' offense was for transgressing the
law prohibiting IN amateur athlete from
competing at ar entertainment that is not
registered. The athlete had been thrown
out of employment by a strike at the Griff-
ing Iron Works and has since been unable to
find werk. He has several dependent on
him, and when his friends suggested the
benefit he gladly accepted their kind offer
This is the official statement from the A.
A. u
Secretary Sullivan has been notified that
Thos. j. Vogellus, the well known distance
unn of Jersey City, was rendered a bene-
ft.last Saturday evening in Jersey City by
the Scottish-American and Aroma Athletic
Clubs. This, of course, makes Vogellus a
professional, and in the future his entry will
be rejected by amateur organizations. The
rules of the &. A. u. do not allow the giving
of entertainments for the bneefit of ath-
letes. OF late Secretary Sullivan has re-
ceived many letters in relation to exhibitions
that are to be given in different cities
throughout the United States. The general
impression has been heretofore that amateur
athletes could give an exhibition at special
entertainments where Professionals either
competed or exhibited. All athletes are
warned that this is a direct violation of the
general rules of the A. A. U. At the last
annual meeting of the Amateur Athletic
Union held in New York City the following
amendments were made:
1t was voted to amend General Rule 1 to
read as follows
"Any one competing or exhibiting at open
sports or an entertainment of any character
whatever, held by any club or managing
body which is not an allied member of the
Amateur Athletic Union, or a member of
one of the Associations of the Amateur Ath-
letic Union, or of the Intercollegiate Asso-
citation of Amateur Athletes, or any other
Association or body to be hereafter approved
of, or registered as an approved organiza-
ton, shall thereby disquaIify himself from
competing at any sports given by Organlza-
ions approved by the Amateur Athletic
Union. The Board of Governors shall have
power to reinstate any one SO disqualified if
it shall think fit"
1t was voted to amend Clause 6 of General
Rule |. to read as follows
IAN games, meetings, benefits and enter
tainments of any kittd where athletes COM
pete or exhibit must be registered"
1t was voted to amend General Rule XII.
to read as follows
'sNo professional contest or exhibition for
any prize or reward whatever shall be al
lowed at any games, meetings or entertain
ment held under the rules of the A. A. U"
This official notice is sent out so that those
who do compete at such entertainments can
not give the excuse that publicity was not
given to them.

STOLE MARY RYAN'S MONEY.
Deckhand Schaeher Told of His
Commanders Find.

Companfon's Find.
John Schaeffer and Henrietta Brown en-
gagged a room at Rich's Hotel, On Exchange
place, on the night of December 30. The
room was adjoining that of Mary Ryan,
the cook in the hotel. The couple only re-
NAMED in their room a few minutes, and
then they left the hotel. Soon after Schaeffer
and the woman went away Mrs. Ryan dis
covered that some one had taken $465 from
the pocket of a dress that was hanging up
in a closet in her room, and suspicion was
directed TO Schaeffer and the Brown woman.
This was corroborated when Kate Martin
later said she hadm met Henrietta Brown on a
ferryboat, and that she told Kate Martin
that she had "a terrible lot of money" She
said that she had $95 in her possession, and
that on the day following she expected to
get $500 more. She gave Kate Martin So
for a New Years gift.
The police were put in possession OF these
facts, and Schaeffer, who is a deckhand on
a tugboat, was arrested. He was tried in
the Court of Sessions today, and he said
that he had met Henrietta Brown at the
Washington Concert Garden. They went
to Rich's Hotel, and the woman left him
alone for a few minutes. When she return
ed to their room she said to him that she
had found a lot of money and they had bet
the next day Henrietta gave him S36 and
told him to buy an overcoat, which he did.
With the balance he bought a watch for
Henrietta on the Bowery. He said both
were under the influence of drink when
they went to Rich's Hotel.
Henrietta Brown, a progressing looking
young woman, admitted, when she was call
ed as a witness, that she went to the hotel
with Schaeffer. She said she found the
money on the floor, and that Schaeffer took
it from her and gave her $25 of the amount.
She confirmed Schaeffer's story of the over
coat and watch.
Judge Hudspeth directed that the facts of
the case be laid before the Grand Jury with
a view to the indictment of Henrietta Brown,
and reserved decision in Schaefer's case
until the Grand Jury considered the case of
