Charley Lations edits the rollowtnc notes in the New Haven Sunday Reg | ister: Cunningham and Kid Conway start 1 cd to run q polo team in Pawtucket. After the team went under they took account of stock. and it is alleged that i Cunningham lost S1O5, while the Kid made SIP. Doe came down and strengthened out matters by giving the 1 Kid. it is said. 5000 to go to Lewiston l While Cunningham reckoned uD his assets, which proved to be John Smith,
 himself and q half dozen polo st'"'
 Tte Waterbury team deserves great IL. | Win or lose. the players are hustling
 all the time and not loaf1ng. They were 1 warmly applauded Iii New Haven for
 their efforts and they justly deserved | it.
 Gus Wilkins. the sporty suspender i man from Boston, is in town. Gus has just come from Maine and has a bar
 rel of news of the doings there. He
 says Doe is the only man making | money there, and that the attendance
 does not warrant any of the fancy
 salaries which they are supposed to
 pay. The average nightly attendance
 in the different cities is: Rockland,
 2Io; Gardiner, $50; Bath. 400; Port
 land 300; Lewiston, 800 Such at
 tendance does not warrant paying any
 fancy salaries and Gus is q pretty
 shrewd guesser
 Worcester may be added to the cir
 cult, but Springfield people must not
 think that Manager Aufort is going to
 jump his team there. Worcester is
 right on the circuit and has rink that
 with a few alterations will be a good
 one. There is nothing like keeping your eve on q place where you can locate.
 The Maine league is very shaky and may go~rp after Christmas. What is
 more natural than that the players
 will come this way and why won
 Worcester be the spot to drop in?
 Bridgeport. too, if q place can be Sc- ) cured. and the patrons of the game ) need not be surDrjsed next season to ) find the National league consisting of ) eight first class cities and strong clubs representing each city, as there will be
 players enough and more to go around.
 Should this he accumulated. and I see
 no reason why it should not he. it will D place polo on a footing that it has not enjoyed for years. The public will get e a chance to see great many new faces Il and different combinations at work T Griffin's work with the Waterbury Il team has heen of the finest quality this Il season. His heart is in the game anC Il he is making friends all over the cir u u cult as well as at home by his show Il ing.-New Haven Register.
 V Waterbury seems to be weak at frs rush. although Daily at times plays fas f polo. The youngster works hard. bu s his spurts are streaky. The attend n ance in the Brass city is equal to any n in the league and Billy Parsons VII q not allow his team to become sec O ond rater. at least not as long as th' r present enthusiasm for the sport | n manifested in the Brass clty.-Har' n ford Globe.
 Is As the campaign of the Nationa s polo league progresses the battle be IT, tween New Haven, Hartford, Water le bury and Springfield grows hotter. an' n at this stage there does not seem t le be much choice between the teams
 There is no question regarding the sue n. cess of the season in all four of the Gil
 ies named. but the ''bugaboo' at Mel le iden still remains in eVidencc.-Hart 'n ford Globe.
 III , President Murnane and Secretar Ie Morse have condescended to pay yisi II" to this circuit. At least. the fOrme e. put i'll an appearance at Hartford las - Saturday night on his way to atten 30 the, base ball meeting at New iorl 69 He took occasion to mend his fence 3S and throw a little palaver into the d

Divide them up so ever -- city can have q .whack at the loot = Secretary Morse in Boston Herald. Se = ond the motion. All in favor say ay dT Carried unanimously. Now let tl o.. president and secretary send in q Ii
 tie document to the league meetin + accomDanied by the books and record ,iL' and all will he as happy as marrias
