The forming of the new Burlington COM
pany shows that 1t least there is activity
in the Northwestern railway situation
and that some plan is being carried out
This * almost the extent of the knowl-
edge Of the outside world. but ii is really
the important point in itself. The best
theory yet offered regarding the Burling-
ton Company is that il was formed TO
gather together all the Burlington prop
critics and turn them over to the Morgan
Hil! syndicate, This Of course could only
be preparatory move in a wider plan
Tor the other railways of the syndicate.
The public is not especially interested in
the details of this plan. however for the
very good reason shat the public has not
any large holdings Of these securities.
What the public wishes to be assured Of
is that the Morgan-H1ill cOterie have a
plan and are bulls in the present market.

The increase in parts" and in plants

important as the increase in quick as
sets but the above table shows very
clearly that the report was not juggied by
accounts, as is sometimes done by in
dustrial companies when they wish to
make a favorable showing, but have no
increase in quick assets to report.
1t may be noted that the total OF cash
on hand after the September dividend

To this balance sheet the report adds
the following facts: The business was the
largest and most profitable Of the past
five years. Net profits of the year were
g, ,lS3,034 as compared with 81, ,9l9 l65 in
1900 and S1.627,O5 in 1899. Sales of sup
plies in the year amounted TO S541 900,
gain of Sl55,0V0 over the preceding year.
There are on rental $50 machines. of an
annual rental value of $685., ,335 The num-
ber of machines sold was 63S

company have increased SS35. lis, and that
the surplus increase is $3.50, ,034, practically
the same amount. This surplus. added to
the dividend disbursement of 12Is per

Bowling Club was again squeezed last
night this time by the Y. NJ. G. A. five. in
a match played at the association alleys.
The home team came off victorious In each
of the three games, and the bowlers from

anchored at the tail end Of the District

tainly deserved to lose in the opening game.
when their total was but $50. the lowest
score made in several seasons, the nearest
approach to it being a game played by the
Columbia Ave at Carroll Institute about six
years ago. But after this very disastrous
game Capt Dietz so changed his team that
it was like different organization when
it faced its opponents in the succeeding
event.
The association made a first class show
ing in these games, the new men, as well
as the old, bowling in splendid form. For
the first time Pearson played the entire Sc
res and his average was excellent. If the
new men can stand the pace on other al

only amusement the spectators had was in
watching the comical efforts of the Busi-

btion was not at all of the character
which league audiences have been used to.

CHARGES AGAINST ATHLETES.

Br1tfshers Say Certain Ones Received
Expenses In England for Competing.
A mild sensation has been caused in ath-
letic circles by letter that Secretary Jas.
E. Sullivan of the A A. U. has received
from the honorable secretary of the ANA
teur Athletic Association of Great Britain.
He charges that certain American ath-
letes who visited England last summer
demanded and received their expenses.
This act would make all offenders pro-
fessionals, and as some Of the best track
and field men in the country are involved,
the communication is likely to start high
ly important inquiry.
The letter Is as follows:
Dear Sir: 1t is a matter of common
knowledge over here that some of the few
Americans who came over here after Paris
last year and also this July asked for and
obtained expenses for competing at some
of our athletic meetings. This is, as you
are aware contrary to four laws. Were
these men after Paris last year ON their
own.' as we say. or in any way under the
control Of their colleges or clubs? Also,
Tewksbury sent by their clubs or were
they simply on their own account without
any controlling power on your side of the
water? I have been asked by division Of
our association. the northern, to ask you
this.
The reply Of Mr.. Sullivan is as follows:
Dear Sir; Your communication of No
ven.ber 26 to hand and eontents noted.
'The athletic teams that visited Paris for
the Olympian games in 1900 were sent by
their colleges or clubss and at, the expense
of same. u,
'In relation to the athletes who visited
England this year, | believe that some of
them went on their toAtn responsibility.
namely: Long, Baxter. Tewksbury and
Kraenzlein Manager Thompson Of George
town University infoSmed me the other
day that Duffy had his expenses paid by
Georgetown University and represented
Georgetown University.
From my investigation and my personal
knowledge l would state that the athletes
who took part in the Paris games Of 1900
were furnished in Paris with their trans
portation home by their clubs or colleges.
OF course. this gave them the right to re-
main abroad as long as they wanted to and
at their own expense.
II feel quite confident that If there is any
information you want the colleges and
clubs these men represented will gladly
give same to you"

end Of the fifth frame, but the steady

to an even mark. The South Washington
men bowled poorly at the close, however,
