CYCLING.


The N. C. A., the organization which
is trying to secure control of cycle
racing in New York city, has been in
existence for several months and few
meets have been conducted under its
auspices. In these meets there have
been many infractions of all sporting
rules yet there has never been a sus-
pension by the N. c. A. nor in fact any
form of punishment whatever. The
question has arisen, What would it
do if such men as Bald, Cooper, Gard
iner or any of the others leaders fixed
racer" Would it suspend them fol
thus imposing on the public? Nobody
believes they would for an instant, Tor
to do so would be the speedy end OF ali
the hopes of the outlaw leaders. Yet
cycle racing men have been suspended
by the L. A. W. in the past for this
offense, and it will probably occur
again this season. What insurance has
the public that it is not being swim
died every ime it sees a race where
there is no competent authority in con-
troll of it? That is one question OF
greatest importance to the sport that
the public wants to know.
H. B. Freeman, who made applica-
ton for reinstatement to the L. A. W.,
has ascertained he would be compelled
to pay his fine and has withdrawn the
application. The l.. A. w. intends to
strictly enforce all its edicts.

IN JUNE
The Monongahela River Consolidated
Coal and Coke Company Will Ap-
ply for a Charter from Pennsyl-
vania. Other River Items Cleaned
on the Wharf Yesterday.

The Monongahela River Consolidated
Coal and Coke Company will on June
Z apply to Gov. w. A. Stone for char
ter. This is the corporation that will
absorb all the mining and floating pro-
perty of the Monongahela valley, pro-
vided the present arrangements are
carried out. The name of the incor-
porators are George l. Whitney An
drew NJ Heron, G. w. Wurzell, John
M. Mcbride and NJ. D. Ullery. 1t is
said that it was the original intention
to apply for charter under the laws
of New Jersey, but according to the
acts of assembly of that State, the cor
poration would control more land than
is allowed by law.
None of the coal operators seen to-
day seemed to know anything about
this latest combination of the river
interests. 1t is thought, however. that
the deal will go through. Some river
men are of the opinion that per
cent dividend can be earned on SIS
000,000 capital, and it is thought that
the preferred stock will not exceed that
figure. Some coal operators give it
as their opinion that the deal will be
consummated by July at the latest.
