LOCAL ATHLETIC GOSSIP
Evil-Doers in the Dupont Road Race
Let Down Lastly,
doned, and Things VIII BE Rum
ming Smoothly Again shortly.

The result of the deliberations OF the conf
mittee that has been looking into the charges
made against numerous riders III the DG-
pont road race has surprised nobody, al
though the disqualifying of George Smith
was not anticipated. 1t was generally
thought that Smith would come out with
clean skirts.
The statement made by The Times yester-
day that Crimes, who finished first in the
race, was out of it, proved correct. There
was too much evidence TO show that lie had
been assisted by paceniakcrs to admit OF
his getting any OF the eniOlunlents Of the
race, and with SIMS. Leatherbury, Mndd,
Ganse, Wrenn, and the rest of them, lie
was disqualified.
There was scarcely any effort made by
Sims, Leatherbury, or any OF the other
prominent riders III the race, to disprove
the cha rges made against them. In fact.
nearly All of them frankly admitted that
they mad not ridden within the letter Of the
law, but the difficulty and delay i'll settling
the matter came from the efforts OF less
prominent nien to prove that they have not
acted unfairly: The outcome OF the whole
matter is that Thompson gets both the
first and time prizes, while the other prizes
go as follows:
j. ". Garrison, second; W. II. walcott.
third; F. L.: skinner. fourth; F. L. Bur
ton, fifth; X. W. Christie, sixth; W X.
schroyer, seventh; E. L. Wilson, eighth;
Frank Kieson, ninth; c. $. bush, tenth,
twelfth, and William O'Connor, thirteenth.
As to the rumored intention of the COM
mittee to bar men found guilty of unfair
ness in their race from all future local bi-
cycling events, it seems that intention was
abandoned. In fact, il it had been adhered
to it would have left few good home riders
to build any sort of meeting on, and would
have left Il stain on local cycling that woulsl
have been hard to rub out. and the com
mittee acted wisely in getting over the
whole thing as easily and as lightly as
possible. As the matter now stands it il
believed the effect will soon wear off, ami
everything will assume a smooth and pleas
ant shape again after little while.
There is talk of a six day bicycle race
meet at New York City in the near future.
and it is said that Michael, the great little
W. W. Windie took three worlds bicycle
records from John s. johnson Tuesday
afternoon. He cut The half mile record from
81 to 4S seconds; one-thlrd mile from
30 2-5 to 30 SO seconds, and qUater-mile
son, State League of American Whcelnlcn
was present, and the records are official.
WSO. Woodward, who was one of the
riders in the race, feels aggricved over being
thrown out. and asks tl,5t the following
protest be published for him:
To The Times: 1 feel that ii was the
duty of tn craeing committee of the
Dupont Cycle Club 10 give NE notice that
] was protested in their record race and
thus give me a chance to prove that re-
ceived no assistance.
