TOO AUTOCRATIC.
Movement to Break Away From the


Movement to Break Away From the
N. A. A. o.
A movement for secession from the Ma.
tional Association of Amateur Oarsmen has
been under way for several weeks, and is
now about TO break out into a war against
the present governing body of rowing In
America. A secret meeting was recent y
held at the Carrollton Hotel, Baltimore al
which a plan of campaign was mapped but
Rowing clubs of Baltimore PHILADELPHIA
Washington, Newark and New York were

There were altogether twenty-three clubs
1t was shown at this meeting that these
twenty-three clubs were rea 1y TO join In
the movement to secede from the parent
body. These clubs embrace the very flower
of the rowing talent of the country
Each one present at the meeting was

at the Carrollton that there will really be
no fight. They think they will Dnn;hiJat e

to slumber until they engineered the coup

this meeting has not 5een fixed. but it will
occur some time between now and Christ
mas.
The schism in the N. A. A. o. started
from alleged arbitrariness by the national
board. 1t was brought to a head when the
board refused to appoint Carrigan of Phila-
delphia to fill vacancy. At the national
regatta last August in PHILADELPHIA a
vacancy on the national board was filed.
The boating clubs of Philadelphia and the
majority from other sections wanted Carri-
gan for the position. The board wanted

Later another vacancy occurred, and the
friends OF Carrigan pointed out that an
excellent opportunity had occurred to get
MIN on the board, thus satisfying the feel
ing OF unrest. Instead of bowling to the
popular clamor, DIR. Root was appointed.
There was no objection to Dr. Root per
sonally, but the dissenting clubs commended
that they should have some representation.
Directly after this the secession movement
started. All the Philadelphia and Newark
clubs are said to be in the movement. to-

CURRENT NOTES OF SPORT

CHICAGO, October 2S.-Sunday racing,
which has rent In twain the eastern and
western realm of the League of American
Wheelmen, may be effectually disposed Of
to the satisfaction of all disputants If
President Isaac B. Potter's idea is Endorsed
at the next natioral assembly.
The solution is in the nature of a COM
promise, by which the national organiza-
ton would go on record emphatically
against Sunday racing. which would not be
in any way sanctioned at the national rae
ing meets. District option. however, which
was SO earnestly contested for by the Pa.
cific coast contingent before its secession
would be in practical force, allowing the
territory in charge of each member of the
national board to exercise local option by
V. Potter, who has come to Chicago to
spend two days, outlined this idea last
night.
Unite East and West.
'In this way" said Mr.. Potter "the east
which is a unit against Sunday racing,
would not be alienated from the organiza-
ton, because the organization would not
as such authorize this practice. At the
same time the Pacific members would not
object because they could exercise free will
and race all day Sunday If they wanted to-
This idea has rot been generally dis
cussed and I am sure do not know how
it would strike the majority of the MEM
hers. but it would reconcile the east with
the west, make room in the organization
for both extremes, and, in fact. 1t seems
to me it ought to satisfy everybody The
Sunday problem is a delicate one, and yet
1t should not be so incapable of solution
as to cause a breach in the organization.
Personally think state ought to have
the right to race on Sunday if it wants to-,
and / don't see how anybody elsewhere
should assume to forbid that right, but l
also corcur in the opinion of the majority
of members that a general sanction of
Sunday racing would do the organization
irretrievable injury.
Omaha Withdraws Her Claim.
In concluding the interview President
Potter said: 1T has just been announced
officially that Omaha withdraws her claims
to the next general assembly owing to her
inability to get support from the mer-
chants who are engrossed with their expo
sition, so the probabilities are that In
dianapolis. the other leading contestant,
will get the meet next year.

Who Deserted and Went Into the Union Army
May Get Pensions.

Washington, Aug. 21-It is not improb-
able that official announcement will be
made in a few weeks of radical change
in the present attitude of the pension
bureau towards pension claimants who
had a confederate war service. Under
the present constructions of the law any
service in the confederate cause, irrespec-
tive of later service for the governments,
is a bar to pension. Commissioner Of
Pensions Evans believes that claimant
who served in any capacity in the con-
federate service. but later deserted or
left it's anlSs, enlisted in the union army,
served therein and was honorably dis
charged, it would be an injustice to re-
fuse him a pension. He be[jsves that
having performed honorable service In
the union army the past hostile service
should be overlooked.
Assistant Secretary Webster Davis.
whose decisions have been in the line OF
liberal construction as to the pension
laws, Is understood to have similar views.
The question has been referred to the
president and Secretary Bliss for their
approval.
