LEAGUE GOES UNDER

 sUL- MES TO INEVITABLE.
After One Month of Precarious Existence Interstate League Passes out-State League
 May Succeed It.

The Interstate League has gone under. The Montgomery team which held on longer than any other club in the League, vas dissolved yesterday.
 The League, which began life May 1st. had an inauspicious existence. Only Brewton, Montgomery and Mobile sue ceeded in organizing clubs for the League The three towns were unable to maintain the League, and 1t was never prosperous in it's short existence.
 Pensacola gave the League it's first severe blow when it failed to enter. A religious crusade put an end to Sunday ball in Pensacola. This killed profes- sional ball in that city on every day as we'll az Sunday. The failure of Pensa- cola to come into the League completely upset all of its plans.
 Manager Hercules Burnett of the local team had succeeded in getting together a rather fast set of youngsters. It was said last night that his players would re- main in the city several days as a State League to be composed of Alabama towns would probably be organized. Sev- eral towns have already fast independ- ent teams.
 It is understood that negotiations are pending for the association of these towns in a State League in which Montgomery will have a team. Those interested, how ever, declined to talk last night.

HARRY ELKES KILLED
CYCLIST MEETS DEATH IN RACE
 AT CAMBRIDGE.
Fire of Wheel Burst, Throwing tn Rider, Who Was Run Over By Motor Going at Terrific
 Speed.

Cambridge, Mass, May 30.-Iarry Bikes or Glenn Falls, N. Y, after breaking all records up to and including fifteen miles was killed. and Will Stinson bicyclist, and +. A. Galley, a motor steersman, were seriously injured today in an accident in the first lap of the sixteenth mile of a motor paced race at the initial bicycle meet on the Charles River Park track
 The accident was due to the bursting Of the rear tire on Elkes's wheel at a point where the track bank is at an angle of about SS degrees. Bikes tried to stop his machine and in doing so was thrown over the haIdlebars, turning a complete somersault and with his wheel rolled down the steep embankment directly in front of Stnson's motor, which was man. ned by Gately.
 The heavy motor struck Elkes throwing Gately and the machine completely over him. while Stnson, who was following, crashed into the wreck. At the time Of the accident Bikes was well in the lead having made new worlds records for the five, ten and fifteen miles. The injured men were picked up and sent to the hos pltal. Bikes dying on the way.
 The track is five laps to the mile and the principal attraction this afetrnoon was the twenty mile paced race between Bikes. Stinson, Walthour and Moran. The first three were following single motors and Moran was following a tandem. Stin- son took the lead at the beginning of the race with Walthour second and Bikes in third place. Moran being out of 1t from the start. In the fifth mile. Stinson's tire burst, Walthour's motor went wrong and Bikes went to the front. His time for the five miles was minutes 2l Is seconds, beating the worlds record In the seventh mile Stinson broke a chain of his second machine, losing mile before he could again get into the race. Bikes was well in the lead his time for the ten miles, being 12 minutes 30 3-5 seconds, still we'll ahead of the worlds record. At fifteen miles Bikes time was IS minutes and sect nds another worlds record
 Early in the sixteenth mile Elkes's rear tire exploded and the mix up which cost him his life occurred. The track atten- dants rushed to Bikes and found him un- conscious with terrible gash in his head. Stnson was cut severely about the head and face, while Gately's foot was split open by the motor the big toe of the right foot being nearly amputated. The men were removed from the track and placed in ambulances to be sent to the Cambridge Hospital, but Bikes died before the vehicle was out of the grounds.
 The race was continued by Walthour and Moran, the former winner, complet- ing the twenty miles in 26 minutes 20 2-J seconds. Bikes has been the most promi- nent bicyclist in this country for years. He has raced both in America and abroad He returned from Europe only few wekes ago and was entered in the circuit races, representing the track at Phila- delphia.
