Denials From Dunn.

Bosroy, April 9.-Dr. J. b. Damn OF
this city, secretary OF tho national nd
visory board of the American Protective
association, yesterday made n statement
relative to story emanating from st.
Louis. purporting to be an account of an
alleged "snub" given the order by Mark
Hanna, who Is prominently mentioned In
connection with the Mckinley campaign.
This story alleged that letters were sent
by the advisory board to the managers OF
Mckinley, Reed, Morton and Allison, and
that all save Hanna replied. A second
letter was sent to Hanna, who replied that
Mckinley would recognize no faction of
the Republican party. In consequence of
this reply, 1t Is stated that the board noti-
fed the different managers that the order
would fight Mckinley.
1t was further alleged that Congress-
man Linton Of Michigan had been selected
as a candidate. DIR. Dunn says that he
has been present at every meeting of the
board, and that no action whatsoever was
taken by the board booming Mr. Linton
or any other person for the presidency.
He said further:
"As utterly false Is the statement that
the advisory board sent letters to the man
ngcrs of Mckinley, Reed, Merton and ALI
son, inviting them to appear before the
board snd state their attitude toward the
organization, as they intended to take
hand In the national fight, and that all
the managers but Hanna obeyed the sum.
mons.
"The board sent out no such letters its
members are not simpletons AS no first
letter was sent TO Hanna, there was no
second, and his reported reply that ne
would recognize no faction in the Repub-
lican party, and would make no pledges
or promises to any secret organization, is
all fiction. and the st. Louis correspondent
had better try again"

Wheelmen's Notes.

Here's pretty go:
A cablegram from Athens to the Ameri-
can Wheelman says that the Americans
did not compete in the 100 kilometer race,
having been denied license. Efforts
will be made TO have them ride later in
the week, but it is thought that IL will
not be successful. Mcdonald, the most
promising OF the American contingent,
is looked upon as likely man In the
short distance races, but for some unex-
plainable reason it appears that he will
not have a chance to try h's prowess
against cyclists OF other countries.
The trouble that has been brewing be-
tween the League Of American Wheelmen
and the Amateur Athletic Union since
the action of Chairman Gideon OF the
l.. A. W. racing board in sanctioning
races at Buffalo to club which has been
under the ban of the A. A. u, is fair to
develop into an athletic war between the
two organizations and may terminate In
the A. A. u. entering the sport OF cy-
cling itself and making an effort to get II
under its control
Heretofore the l.. A. w. and A. A. u.
have worked I'm harmony in their efforts
TO preserve amsteurism in sports. when
bicycle races were proposed in connection
with ot her athletic sports the A. A. u.
invariably referred to the l.. A. w. IL
the latter withheld its sanction for the
cycling events the former declined to
grant permissio for the other athletics
and thus the desired end was attained.
In other cases the procedure was re-
versed, and IL the promoters OF any games
could not obtain the A. A. u. sanction
then the l.. A. w. sanction was also with
held.
surely then, under these circumstances,
every effort should he made to heal the
breach existing between these two pow
erful organizations. Ii has taken years
to esta olish the present standard OF
amateurism, years OF patient work and
A. A. ~. are to be constantly at swords
points II will be but q very short time be-
fore amateur athletics will deteriornte and
will again be i'm the crude and demoral-
izing state that It has taken years to drag
IL from.
