INTEREST in BIG GAMES
MARION AND WASHINGTON shRIEs
MAY BE POSTPONED.
Other Bowlers Desire to See the Con-
tests-New Entries Received
Commercial Scores.

Indianapolis bowlers are having their in
terest in the national tournament dis
tracted temporarily to another bowling
contest. The Marion and Washington clubs
of the indianapolis Bowling League are
separated In first and second place by only
one game Tonight the Marions bowl the
Capital Citys at the Pastime alleys and the
Washingtons the Turner'S at the Turner al
leys. The result of both sets Is likely TO be
a "dog fall but next week the Marions
and Washingtons are scheduled for six
games at the Washington alleys. This will
be the most interesting local contest of the
year outside of the national tournament. as
it is the last time these teams will meet be-
fore the close of the league season and
whichever one gains the advantage in next
weeks games will likely be the i. B. L.
pennant winner.
Because of the interest in these games
members of the other teams of the /. B. l..
are urging the postponement of the Marion
Washington games from Friday until Sat-
urday night Of next week so that all may
have a chance to witness the struggle of
the leaders. 1t is probable the directors of
the league will authorize this postpone
ment.
Secretary Bryson received yesterday the
entrance of the Ko-We-Ba five-men team,
the two-men entrance of Graft and Gard
ner, and also their individual entries. and
the individual entry of Charles +. Coffin.
Indianapolis will probably have fifteen
teams in the tournament. Secretary Bryson
has received a letter from T. III. Fowler,
editor of the Twin City Sportsman, pub
lished at st. Paul, saying that w. II. Bell.
of that paper, will be here about Jan. 81 to
arrange for the visits of the bowlers of st.
Paul and Minneapolis. Mr.. Fowler also
writes that the Twin Cities will formally
announce their candidacy for the 1905 tour
nament at the Indianapolis tournament.
Charles III. Ebbitts, president Of the
Brooklyn baseball club, will not be a can
didate for president of the American Bowl
ing Congress. He was elected to this Office
by ''rump' convention of New Workers at
Buffalo last year, but resigned I'm favor of
Mayor Bookwalter when the split conven-
ton reunited Mr.. Ebbitts said last night
in Cincinnati that he was not a candidate
for the presidency, although he would
probably attend the convention in this city.
DR.. Timm, of New York. wired Mayor

They all stated that Mr.. Brush ought
also to be satisfied as he had expressed abb
solute confidence in the inability of the

tinued in everything done to-day. When
the meeting opened two of the clubs had
injunctions hanging over them and the
representatives of other clubs came to the
meeting with their war paint on. Before
the members separated tonight they had
memorable love feast. in which all partici-
pated. except John T. Brush. who previous
ly left for Indianapolis.
Yesterday it was current lobby talk that
neither New York nor Brooklyn would get
places on the committees. To-day the same
members most heartily congratulated Pres
ident Pulliam for appointing Ebbits on
the schedule committee and Hanlon on
the committee on rules.
