Manager Z. I. Forsythe of the Shortridge

to engage in a dual meet upon the following
terms and that only ten men from each
school would be entered and that not more
than two men be entered in each event first

The programme as arranged contains a
twenty-yard dash, quarter. half and one

The Shortridge boys are confident they
can win the meet, although they realize
that the Bloomington team has the better

strong point winners on its team, but the
North Side lads argue that stars do not win
meets. They will send a well-balanced team
itself.
In the dashes the blue and white will be
represented by Eek" Joseph, last year S

taken care of by Steep and Saltmarsh. G.

Tommy Ryan, middle-weight champion
and Philadelphia Jack O'Brien may sign
articles within the next few days for a
twenty-round battle for the middle-weight
championship. Ryan boxed here on We'd
nesday night and before he left the city
yesterday he and his manager. s. Ferretti
talked concerning the proposed meeting
Ferretti said that the offer OF the Carbon
County A. A, of Mauch Chunk, Pa, would
not be accepted by Ryan, as he believes
that better offers will be received from
other clubs. The Fort Erie club and the
San Francisco clubs are after the match
and it may be arranged before long to
take place during May.
Ryan says he had the better of the argu-
ment when he fought O'Brien in Phila-
delphia, and expects no difficulty in dis
posing of the Philadelphia in decisive
manner the next time they meet.
Ferretu, Ryan and Hugo Kelly went TO
Philadelphia on the occasion of the fight
the battle and when Ryan received his
guarantee, which was $500. before he en-
tered the ring, Ferretti was burdened with
about $4,000 in cash. Being from Chicago
and of very small build, Ferretu did not
like the glances that were cast at him by
men around the hotel where they were
stopping. when he accidentally let the by
ISLANDERS get a fash of the big roll. He
gave the money to Hugo Kelly and il was
placed in belt and then strapped around
Kelly's stomach. Kelly said he never had
had such a costly belt around his body
until he becomes the middle-weight

SHUlER MAY Be URGED
TO IDENTIFY OS[AND |.
Russian Vice Consul Anxious to
Get Into Communication
with Horsemen.
HISTORY OF THE HORSE
Animal Formerly Handled by
Shuler Before He Was Sold
at Louisville.
HISTORY OF THE HORSE

L. V. Shuler the well-known horseman
now living in Indianapolis has received
word through the local police department
that Prince Snyatchift, the Russian vice
consul at Chicago, is anxious to cOmmuni-
cate with him on important business. Mr..
Shuler believes that il is in regard TO the
horse Osland L. that was purchased in
this country some time ago and that has
been raced in Russia under a different name
and is in the royal stud. Mr.. Shuler received
an offer several months ago TO go 10 Russia
TO identify the horse, but he could not leave
his livery business and he says ne would
not make the trip now unless paid $1,000 a
month and all of his expenses.
year ago last December a Russian
count came to Indianapolis to see Mr..
Shuler about the horse Osland l.. The
Russian walked into Mr.. Shuler's Office one
day and laying eight or ten large photo
graphs of horses on his desk asked him II
he could identity any of the horses. With
out hesitating Mr. Shuler picked up one OF
the photographs and said ii was likeness
of Osland l.. At the request of the Rus
sian count Mr.. Shuler went before notary
public and made sworn statement as TO
the identity of the photograph. Later he
received an offer TO go to ST. Petersburg to
identify the animal.
Mr.. Shuler could not make the trip at
lHdl llillt, Out recommended Amy ME-
Dowel. the well-known driver, who was
identified in the racing business with Mon
roe Salisbury and who once owned the
horse. man who could identify Osland
l.. Mr.. Mcdowell made the trip, but failed
TO properly identify the animal
Osland l.. is by Lockhart and was bred
and raised by George w. Sherwood, of St.
Paul. Mr.. Shuler gave Lockhart world s
record for the three fastest heats in a trot-
ting race in 1895 and Mr.. Sherwood was
anxious that Mr.. Shuer should develop the
colt. Osland l.. Mr.. Shuler worked the
horse and gave him mark of 2:16A in 1896.
The following year the animal was put on
Mr.. Sherwoods farm, but after Mr.. Shuler
returned from the Grand Circuit campaign
Osland l.. was sold to Andy Mcdowell
and Mr.. Salisbury, who shipped him to
Louisville. Mcdowell raced him there and
then sold him to German parties for $500
Osland l.. was then shipped TO Russia.
n hOrseShOer named Mack, who used to
shoe horses at the Indiana State fair
grounds. went to Russia soon after Osland
l.. was shipped and one day at st. Peters
burg the horse was brought TO him to be
shod. The man with the horse gave the
animal a big Russian name. but Mack i'm
mediately identified the animal as Osland
l.. and declared that he had been shipped to
Russia from the United States. This
seemed to start scandal and since that
time efforts have been made by Russian
racing officials to properly identify the
horse. Mr.. Shuler may be induced to make
trip to that country for the purpose of
Identifying OSland i.
