SPORTING NOTES.

New York, Feb. 15.-Widespread in
terest fs manifest in the annual meet
ing Of the L. A. w, which will be held
in this city next Monday. 1t is ex-
pected to be the most important meet
ing ever held in the history of the
league. Plans will be devised for the
Improvement and growth Of the or
ganization and amendments to the
constitution numbering over thirty
have been proposed and will be acted
upon. In consequence of the many
changes suggested it is thought that
the session will consume about two
days, as much discretion will have to
be exercised in order to accede to the
demands of all divisions and still main
tain harmony. The various divisions
are divided as to the proper means to
settle the questions at issue.
The members of the New Jersey
divisions are confident that their efforts
to secure the national meet for Ash
bury Park will be successful. They
now claim to have promises of support
from delegates in all the divisions of
the league.
