bal Wrangle.

Nat Butler. the crack pace follower.

at the Coliseum track last night, had
a lively tilt with Manager Whitman os-
good. The trouble started when Butler.
having heard that the races could not
be run last night. called at the track
and asked to be let in the park so he
could get his motors. He said he had to
ship them to Springfield. Mass, where
he was scheduled to ride tonight
Manager osgood refused, as Butler
was under contract to ride a postponed
race at the Coliseum.
For some time the eerbal conflict was
waged. Finally 4 settlement was
reached. Manager Osgood stated that he
would not allow the motors TO be taken
from the shed. and Butler insisted that
he was compelled TO ride at Springfield
or be ruled of the track for the remain
der of the season.
He stated that 1t would be satisfac-
tory 70 him and the officials OF the Ma
tional Cycling Association IL the mana
ger Of the local track would telegraph
TO Springfield and inform the officials
there Of the trouble. and state the rea
sen for his inability to ride IN that city
tonight Manager Osgood agreed to do
this and the matter was settled. Butler

the doings of that organization. includ-
ing the paying of dues. The cause of the
discomfort lies largely in the fact that
at the recent meeting none but Ameri-
can League players we're chosen to Of
Aces in the association for the coming
year, and because such drastic measures
were taken in regard TO recent contract
jumpers when many others in the organ

several members OF the team have eA-
pressed a desire to withdraw from the
