INTER-CITY GOLF.
Maryland and District Tourney Started
With Soggy Grounds.

The championship tournament of the
Maryland and District of Columbia Golf
Association started this morning promptly
at 10 o'clock at the Baltimore Country
Club.
In view of the possibility that the storm,
which tied up the car line for several hours
might have prevented players wishing to
enter the tournament from enrolling their
names last night, the committee decided to
receive entries until o'clock this morning.
Although the soggy condition of the
course will interfere with fine putting, it Is
still hoped that there will be close and ex-
citing matches before the tournament
closes.
The bad weather has introduced new fac
tors in the tournament. In the first place.
the players who have not been working
hard this season and hoped to get into
condition by practice yesterday have had
all their plans upset. A dozen or more
good Baltimore players, as well as numer-
Gus Westinghouse, who were expected
TO play leading part in the tournament
had not entered last night. Just as there
are some race horses which make better
showing than others on heavy tracks, SO
there are golfers who can do better than
others on slow course The "mudders"
will have their innings today
The entries received last night were pair
ed off as follows, those whose club allie

AFTER JEFFRIES.
Ralph Rose, the Shot Putter, Wants to
Fight the Champion.

Ralph Rose has a new ambition. He is
the Michigan athlete who puts the shot.
He breaks the worlds record, and yet Is
not satisfied. 1t is now stated that he is
after James J. Jeffries. heavyweight cham
pion pugilist of the world.
This news has not as yet been broken to
the champion. 1t is feared by some that
he has not as yet had time to recover from
the Munroe battle sufficiently to stand any
sudden shocks. Rose wants to become a
prize fighter, and declares that he is the
only man in the world capable of knocking
out Jeffries.
In letter to Chicago friend he is cred
tied with saying: 81 believe I am the only
man in the world who can lick Jeffries.
have a stronger right arm than Jeffries. I
can hit harder punch, and If l ever hit
him On the neck I'll kill him. There is no
reason to believe that 1 could not whip
jeff I know he stands today as the
premier man of the prize ring. But I am
swifter man on my feet. 1 have a.
harder punch, a longer right, as much
nerve and endurance, and enough expert
ence in the boxing game to win. Out there
on the coast l used to do nothing but box
before took UP athletics"
Rose Is eighteen years old, Is six feet FIVE
inches in height, weighs 275 pounds and is
declared to be the fastest on his feet of any
man of his size in the country. He will be
twenty-five years old when he graduates
from college. He was born in California,
and has always resided there prior to en-
tering the University of Michigan.

REFUSED TO APPEAR IN RING.
Kid Henning Forfeited to Kid Gilbert
Last Night,

Kid Henning of this city funked in his
match with Kid Gilbert of Philadelphia,
which was to have taken place before
the Nonpariel Athletic Club of Baltimore
last night. Both men were on hand. but
Sam Solomon, manager of Henning, re-
fused to allow him to go on because OF
the small attendance, saying there was
not enough money in sight. According to
the Baltimore Sun the match has been so
made that the boxers were to take 80 per
cent of the gross receipts. When Solomon
said there was not enough money in 1t
President Pollock of the Nonpareil Athletic
Club offered to give the fighters the entire
gate receipts. He said he would add $25
to this amount and would further bet Mr..
Solomon anywhere from $10O to $500 that
his man. Henning, would not win.
Mr.. Solomon still refused to let his man
fight. Gilbert was in the ring ready and
anxious Referee Barrett then declared
Gilbert the winner and awarded him the
S25 forfeit which Mr.. Solomon had posted
for Henning. Gilbert wanted to fight and
was trained to the hour. Possibly his
good condition and much-talked of ability
had an influence in stopping the other fell
low from coming into the ring
After return fight checks were given to
the spectators Mr.. Solomon said he would
match Henning to box Gilbert for $500 a
side before any club excepting the Eureka
or Nonpariel but he would not say why he
barred these clubs nor why he did not let
Henning fight last night. Pollock told
Solomon that he could never again match
as this was to be the first and last time
a match could be made before his club
in which when both men was ready one re-
fused to enter the ring

Greatest Coup of the Season.

In letter to a friend Senator P. H. Nc
Carren of Brooklyn tells how John E. Mad
den made a killing with his colt Water
side at Sheepshead Bay several days ago
and at the same time let John A. ORA &c
in on the good thing as balm for his
wounded feelings in selling him the colt
Britisher for $4,000. According to Sena-
tor McCarren, Madden had the good thing
bottled up, and when the price was first
quoted by the bookmakers 1t was as good
as 20 to 1. The money was sent into the
ring by the commissioners of Senator Nc
Carren, and when the bets were paid over
$4,000 was taken from the books, $75. 00O
of which went to Madden.
After the McCarren and Madden money
had been placed Madden hunted up Drake
and told him of the soft spot, and the own
er of Ort Wells sent his commissioners
through the ring and was enabled to win
close to $4,000.
