WITH THE BICYCLISTS

Chicago, Feb 26.-Members of the board of control of the National Cy- cling association sprung the surprise of the decade yesterday in bicycling. They issued an edict dividing the first and second class racing men Of the United States. Hereafter only riders with a record of 2:1O or better. made in open competition. may start in a championship race. That the League of American Wheelmen. which former- ly controlled racing, is discredited by the N. c. A., causes no surprise among followers Of the sport But that the \. c. A. should declare that it will not accept l.. A. W. records in classi- flying the bicycle racers this season Is a radical move. The declaration Is made, however, that it is absolutely necessary to make the standard of 2:10 or better some within the records of the x. A. c. It matters little what a racer may have done when the l.. A. w. was governing the sport. He must show an N. c. \. mark of 2:1O or bet ter to get into the first class. This def hits such men as Tom Butler. the l.. A. W. champion of 1898; Jimmy Mo- ran. the Chelsea racer. and Harding Downing. the San Jose ranchman, who was the well known team mate of Howard F. Freeman.

He was carried to his cor ner. and came up apparently strong for the eighth and last round.

San Francisco, Feb 25.-On and af- ter April l, the price of transporting hops from all Pacific coast points to eastern markets will be raised. Some time ago an emergency rate was made of $1.5O per hundred pounds from the Pacific coast to all eastern cities on account of the prevalent low-price of the product. Since then hops have raised in price and the old rate of $2 per hundred pounds will be establish cd. This return to the old rate has been opposed by all railroads doing Pacific coast business. The maximum car load of dried fruit will on and after April 1 be thirty thousand pounds. The same rule goes into effect in regard to canned goods.

WITH THE MOWERS.

The plan to hold an American Hen ley'' at New London in June has not met with the looked for encourage ment. While the Weld and Newell rowing clubs of Harvard look upon the plan with favor, Yale is believed to be opposed to 1t, because of the fear that 1t might affect the importance of the annual Yale-Harvard race. Pennsyl- vania rowing men are outSpoken against the idea, because, they say, that it may interfere With the big in tercollegiate regatta at Poughkeepsie. Cornell holds the same opinion and the other organizations mentioned as pos sible participants feel that the expense of such an undertaking Is too great to incur.
 Coach O'Dea of the University of Wisconsin crew has positively an nounced that the Badgers will enter the race at Poughkeepsie this year. There was some talk that Wisconsin would not send crew east because of the plans of Pennsylvania to enter her crack varsity eight i'll the Henley re gatta. O'Dea says, however. that Wisconsin is after the Seaman cup emblematic of the intercollegiate row ing championship. and will be on hand to row whether there Is Pennsyl vania crew at the starting line or not He believes that if Pennsvlvania sends crew to Henley the Ouakers will not ba seen at Pouehkeepsie on July 2. s',t Coach Ward declares that he will have two varsity crews on the water and that the red and blne will show up or the Hudson just the same.
