question of the continued control of racing
bv the League of American Wheelmen
came very near being settled in short or
der and without debate. at the meeting
to-day. Only an act of courtesy on the
part of one or two delegates who are
strongly opposed to the giving up of rae
ing. allowed the matter to stand, and gave
the advocates of the proposed amendment
to the constitution an opportunity TO dis
cuss the matter, which they will do in the
morning.
It took nearly two hours to decide on
the next assembly place. as very pretty
three-cornered fight developed between
Jacksonvile Fla, Philadelphia and De-
troit The assembly, however decided to
seek a warmer cline next year, and chose
Jacksonville.
There is not the slightest doubt that
the league will have charge of the racing
next year, for all the opponents of the
new amendments have to gather is sew
entv-four votes, and to-days meeting,
With the West solid in favor of the rae
ing, shows there are nearly ninety mega
tive votes, which leaves the advocates
with considerably less than the requisite
two-thirds
