CURRENT SPORTING NEWS

The congress of the International Cy-
c'tsts' Association concluded its delibera-
tions yesterday n Paris. after several stormy
sessions. The question of the retirement of
the League of American Wheelmen from
the association and the admission of the
National Cycling Associate in its place
furnished the subject for warm discussions
The session was secret, but it transpires
that President Blaureck of the National
Cycling Association was heard in support
or the request to enter the International
Cyclists Association as a body governing
amateur and professional racing in Ameri-
ca.
The fact that Mr.. Ocker, the delegate
Of the League of American Wheelmen, was
allowed to be present at the discussions
and to vote, although the League of Ameri-
can Wheelmen resigned it's membership,
provoked protests from the partisans of the
National Cycling Association, especially as
the congress decided not to admit the latter
until official notice had been received that
the League of American WheeImen had
withdrawn from the association. A cable
gram of inquiry was subsequently sent to
the League of American Wheelmen which
replied confirming Its withdrawal.
A British delegate and the secretary of
the congress, Sturmey, then moved that the
League of American Wheelmen, although
no longer governing American racing,
should remain affiliated to the international
cyclists Association, and that American
racing men be placed in the same category
as Germans. The motions were rejected
and the congress voted the admission of
the National Cycling Association as the
successor to the League of American
Wheelmen.
AS a consequence of the definite settle
ment OF the American conflict the con-
gress granted full amnesty to all racing
men who had been penalized by either rival
association.
The second important question before the
congress was the proposal to limit the num-
Der of delegates from each country to two
The British delegates holly opposed this,
because, they declared, it would curtail
their influence in the associa ton. as at
present England, ireland and Scotland are
each represented by two delegates
The upshot Of the discussion was that
Secretary sturmey and the other British
representatives left the meeting In a huff.
declaring that the proposal would wreck
the association The congress then voted
to censure Sturmey but, on motion Of the
president, 1t was decided to adjourn action

STRIKING OBJECT LESSON.
Globes of Potomac Water Showing
Effect of PUN Mills.

The committee which will investigate the
pollution Of the Potomac river Will be given
an object lesson in the effects of pulp mills
on the noble stream. which will he en-
phatic and unanswerable. Several senators
have already been made acquainted with
1t, and were simply astounded at what they
saw.
A few days ago Mr.. H. Lauey, the chem
list of Cumberland, Md, sent down TO DR.,
W. p Young, secretary-treasurer of the
District Game and Fish Protective Associa-
ton, two large globes containing Potomac
water. The contents of one globe were
clear and pellucid. and was water taken
from the Potomac at Luke, above Pied
mont. The contents of the other were as
black as ink, the water having been
drawn from public hydrant in Cumber-
land, and is the same as the stuff the cit
liens of that thriving town were supplied
with for three months last summer. There
was no sediment whatever in the globe.
The blackness of the water was due to the
acids used at the pulp mills which were
held in solution without settlement of any
sort.
The globes have been returned to Chem
list Laney, but will probably be sent back
when the coming investigation Is com.
menced.

A clinical class OF medical students Of the
District for the study of cases among the
insane was held yesterday evening at st.
Elizabeth's Asylum In connection with
these classes, which are to be conducted
regularly at the hospital hereafter, and
with the classes of the Training School for
Nurses which has been started among the
employees of the institution, the need Of a
suitable place for holding sessions is being
felt. 1t is the idea of DIR. Richardson, the
superintendent. that a small amphitheater
building should be constructed near the
pathological department for this purpose.
At present no funds are available, il is
said. but the plan may be carried out later.

The kentucky state contest board at
Frankfort yesterday awarded certificates
of election to all of the democratic confess
tants for minor state offices. Immediately
after the contestants were sworn in, and
repaired to the state house in body, where
they made formal demand on the repub-
lican incumbents for possession of the Of
fees. but the demands were not acceded to.
The democratic contestants sworn in are:
Secretary Of state. c. B. Hill of Clark

inridge of Boyle county; auditor, Gus G.
Coulter of Graves county: treasurer, Will
bur Hager of Boyd county: superintendent
of public instruction, H. V. McChesney of
Livingston county. Clerk of the Court Of
Appeals Shackelford administered the oath
Of office to all the contestants for offices
other than governor and lieutenant gov
ernor.
The principal grounds set out in the re-
port for the finding in favor of the demo-
cratic contestants are:
Because of military interference in
Louisville. on account of which the election
there should be thrown out entirely: the al
legged illegal action of Judge Toney in
spectors inside the polls, and also that Judge
Evans OF the federal court contributed to
the result by threatening charge to the
United States grand jury"

the grand jury was part of a conspiracy.
In conclusion the report says:
ut is the deliberate Judgment of the
board that the ballots employed in the
counties Of johnson. Martin and Magoffn
are illegal ballots. In these counties not
only is the character of paper employed Of
the thinnest variety, but the arrangement
Of the devices and the squares inclosing
same is questionable and clearly imparts
the intention to subvert the secrecy Of the
ballot.
ut is now declared by this board that the
vote cast in the city of Louisville and in
the counties of Martin, johnson and Ma

from the total vote cast for each confess

decided that such a trip would be impos-
sible. The matter has been fully considered
for some time. and every endeavor was

In Difference to the wishes of many who
were enthusiastic for the trip, An effort was
made to have the date Of the Poughkeepsie

about the 18th. This was found to be an
impossibility. r.
1t is stated on good authority that there
is no serious thought of sending a crew to
