KTLFoYLE DENIES STORY.
Cleveland Baseball President Says the
Franchise Will Not Be Sold.

Cleveland, o., May 24.-The story set
in circulation yesterday that the Cleve-
land American league club is to change
owners is vigorously denied by Presi-
dent KilfoyIe and Manager McAleer,
the chief stockholders. There is moth
ing in the story" said Mr.. Kilfoyle.
Some time ago James J. Buckley ap-
preached me and stated that he and
party of friends wanted to purchase
the club. He made q proposition which
I turned down, and since then I have
heard nothing of the matter.
''Of course, If a good offer were made
me I would sell. Cleveland, in my
opinion, is one of the best towns in the
American league, as has been seen
lately in the big attendance, although
the team was playing poor ball and
losing steadily. Anyhow. the American
league would have last say as to who
out, and have no such intentions at
present"

England.

New York, May 24.-The World says:

NO SUNDAY RACING.
An Eastern Bicycle Track to Be
Closed.

New York, May 24.-Chief Justice De
pue Of Newark, N. J.. has taken action
which will probably result in the closing
of the Vailsburg bicycle track on Sun
day. He called the attention of the
grand jury to the fact that races where
prizes are given are a violation of the
statute and places where such practices
are habitually permitted are indictable
as being disorderly.
Some weeks ago the Social club of
Vailsburg complained to the chief of po-.
lice of Sunday racing at the track He
refused to interfere and the matter was
taken to Chief Justice Depue, who or
dered Sheriff Virtue to visit the track
and make a report. The report of the
sheriff was to the effect that there was
no disorder, but the chief justice said to
the grand jury on this point that the
families living in the neighborhood of the
track were entitled protection if they
asked It

owing to the fact that the two accom-

the Portage people send him up for ms

POSTPONED ONCE MORE
WESTERN LEAGUE NAGNATES
WILL NOT MEET UNTIL
NEXT WEEK
DENVER SAID TO BE OUT OF IT
Representative From Indianapolis
and Louisville to Attend the
Conference and Ask for
Admission.

The meeting Of the Western league
magnates has been again postponed. this
time at the request of Manager George
Lennon, who has private business that
VIII demand his entire attention on
Thursday, the day that had been set for
the conference. Yesterday Mr. Lennon
wired President Hickey asking that the
meeting be postponed until Tuesday,
March II, and the request was granted
1t is said that there will Ice no further de-
lay and that the meeting will surely be
held at that time.
There was very active rumor circu-
latmg around the city yesterday to tho
effect that both Indianapolis and Louis
Vile would be represented at the meet
ing, and that. as was predicted in the
G / o e last Sunday. the franchises of
Denver and Pueblo are to be transferred
To the Southern cities. Manager Len
non refused to discuss the situation and
said he was ignorant of any such inten-
tion, but kilograms sent by the G b e
to each of the cities named brought out
the intelligence that for once rumor has
Keen entirely Veracious and that both
the cities viii have representatives in st.
Paul when the meeting is held. The
failure of the American association to
materialize has left both Indianapolis
and Louisville out of the game, and un-
less they can break into the Western
league neither will have any baseball
games this season. The determination
Of the league to cut Pueblo out of the
circuit and the refusal of Denver t.
come in unless either the Smelter City or
Colorado Springs were given a franchise,
makes it easy for the Western league to
admit both cities Further than that 1T
will have the effect of making the league
more compact and consequently more
profitable The long jump from Denver
to Omaha or Kansas City and return is
bound to be expensive and
would absorb a large proportion
of the profits, even were the
games we'll patronized. This means, Of
course, that Sioux City will be also cut
out unless the circuit is enlarged, which
is not at all likely.
One new player has been signed by Mr..
Lennon in the person Of Miller Hugglns,
of Cincinnati He is a second baseman,
and a crackerjack, according TO reports
He played second base for Fleischman 5
crack professional team of Cincinnati for
two wears. Last fall he was drafted by
Connie Mack for the Philadelphia Amerl-
can league team. On, account of the fight
between the American and Natlonal
leagues he preferred to come to st. PAU
and play under the national agreement.
