POLO COMMENTS.

Several newspapers in this city and in
other places have printed story to the
effect that Manager Burnham, in an en-
suit himself did not even notify Mr.. G.
w. Richards of Augusta, secretary Of the
old league, that meeting Of the polo
league. WAS to take place. The intimation
was that Mr.. Burnham and his colleagues
had purposely sighted Mr.. Richards,
who as every one knows was faithful
and efficient secretary Of the old league
and gentleman universally respected
and liked. These stories do an injustice
to Mr.. Burnham and put Mr. Richards
in false position which the latter gen.
item an hastens to reotify. In letter
he was not sighted by Mr.. Durham or
the league and does not wish any more
talk of this kind to be printed about him.
He says he has severed his connection
with polo and did not expect nor desire to
be Informed of whenS the polo league
meeting was to take place. Heiwrites
that he makes this statement in Justice
to Mr.. Durham and others.
There has been great deal of indigna-
ton expressed by Portland people that
city hall should be refused for polo pur-
poses The petitions which are being cir
culated about the city are being generally
signed and the public buildings commit.
tee will be asked to reconsier its decision
and let the hall for the game. 1t Is sur
prising to find the number of business
men who are in favor of this game being
played in Portland. They say 1t Is a
clean, exciting and attractive sport and
that Portland should not be denied it.,
while smaller cities have it.
City halls new floor, which has been
needed for twenty years would not be In.
ured in the slightest by the game of polo
and men who thoroughly understand
their surprise at the stand the public
buildings committee has taken on this
matter.
Billy Long, ex. baseball player and OK
polo referee, wants to start an Eastern
Maine polo league. He is in hopes that in

Maine Polo League which for reasons
best known to itself, refused Mr.. Long
the franchise for Bangor.
Some polo writer's, who were consptcu'
Gus last winter in rapping big Dick Fur
bush and his dirty polo playing, seem to
think it very strange that clubs OF the
Maine Polo League did not desire to en-
gage Furbush for another season. Ihls
man did more to hurt this sport in Maine
last year than any other one thing and
without him it will be possible to have
polo in Maine without riot accompany
ing it. The managers of the Maine Polo
League are out for fast, bright league
this season, cutting out such objection
able features as have come to their notice
after two seasons experience.
President Burnham OF the Maine Polo
I,eague has received letter from the
National Polo League looking to the
revival of the agreement of last season be-
tween these two leagues. This would
indicate that the National League already
