KANSAS CITY LINES
UNABLE TO AGREE.
General Managers Do Not Solve
the Site Problem For New
Union Station.

Chicago, ILL.,, June l-Managers oil
Kansas City lines met here to-day
and discussed the union depot prob
lem at Kansas City. They we're I'M
able to agree upon IA site Tor the new
terminals and adjourned to meet
again within n month It. wne'onnd
that the board OF engineers had been
too busy to gather sufficient data
regarding the four sites, under cor
sideration. 1t was Therefore decided
that the committee should he en-
powered TO employ one Outside en-
gineer, who will devote all his time
TO the task Of gathering adequate
data regarding all Of the sites.
1t Is understood that the question
has practically narrowed down to
competition between the present site
and what is known az the north side
site, owned by swift X 20. Inc bur
lington is said to have declared that
it would lie satisfied with either the
present site, the north side site or
one Of the Grand avenue sites. Tho
Grand avenue sites are said to be out
Of the question owing to opposition
on the part Of some OF the roads.
1t appeared that none OF the sites
had been considered with respect to
the cost, and this will undoubtedly
have an important bearing upon the
final decision. The present site is
said to be the cheaper, as real estate
is very much higher in the vicinity OF
the north side site.

First Days Play.

The fall tournament of the Associated
Rogue Clubs of the District of Columbia
made good Roadway in their games yes
terday afternoon and last night Many
contests were held, and each and every
one was close enough to be interesting.
The courts at the corner of Rhode Island

pretty sight last night, as they were lit
I'D with hundreds of electric lights. and
the seats around the courts were crowded
with spectators.
Yesterdays games resulted as follows:
First division-Baker beat Bean. Yost
beat Baker, Peck beat Bean, Williams beat
Wahly Mari beat Yost. Wahly beat Peck

Second division-Howard beat Slime,

Catlin beat Keefer Howard beat Blanch-
ard Blanchard beat Keefer, H. Wahly beat
Catlin, H. -Wahly beat Keefer.
The games this morning had to be post
poned on account of the heavy rain that
swept over the northern part OF the city,
but the courts dried out quickly and play
was resumed late this afternoon.

NATIONAL LEAGUE CUTTERS
president Brush Warmly Censured 70,
Ignoring the Americans

Inc action of John T. Brush nres;5ar,
OF the New York National League Club in
refusing to permit his pennant winners to
meet whichever club wins the American
League championship has brought down a
storm OF censure upon his head. Mr.. Brush
Is accustomed to being censured. For wears
he was buffeted by critics and felIow-m.g-
mates but since he sold the Cincinnati c,uh
and went to New York his life has bean
comparatively free from criticism. Now he
Is getting censured on all sides and the
most OF it comes from New Workers Even
the JOY of winning the National Leapue
pennant, for which the New Workers. have
longed for years, has not prevented Brush
from being made an object for attack.
How Mr.. Brush's action is taken can he
seen from the following:

M. A. C. FOOT BALL.
Farmers Team This Season Shows I'm
DrOVement

The foot ball season for the MARYLAND
Asr cultural College opened with her first
game played last Saturday with George
towns varsity eleven on the latter's
grounds. In this game the M A. C. team
put up stiff fight and held their strong
and outclassing opponents down to a score
OF Y to O. lowering last years figures 9
points. The Aggies are quite content with
the score. which. they say, is indicative of
good work to follow later in the season.
Manager Parker and Captain Gill are
agreed that the outlook for this year is ex-
ceedingly promising. Although the team,
with possibly two exceptions, is made up
OF new and inexperienced men, it looks to
the Initiated as If M. A. c. will keep up her
old record and probably improve upon it.
Mr.. John D. Markey has been again
coaching the team through the first week
OF their practice. He, however, will be I'M
able to remain with them permanently but
will be back off and on during the season.
In his absence Mr.. William r. Wharton,
one of the students, will take charge of the
team and put them through their stunts.
The M. A. G. team is made up as follows:
Left end, Meyer; left tackle, Diggs; left

TO EXTEND RACE SEASON.
Washington Spring and Fall Meetings
MAY Be Changed,

Unless plans that have already been
formulated fail, the New York racing sea-
son next year will probably be heightened
thirty days opening there on April 1 and
closing on November 80. It is said on good
authority that when the legislature con-
venes in January a bill will be introduced
in the New York assembly providing for an
amendment to the Percy-Gray law, ex-
tending the season so that it will be posi-
BILE for Morris Park to race as usual with
out crowding the other tracks, including
the new Belmont Park, which will be
opened in the spring. Whether the Jockey
Club is behind the proposed bill is not
known. Neither can it be learned whether
the Jockey Club will sanction such meas
ure. But it is stated that the Messrs. Nor
ris. who own and are DESTROYS of maintain
ing Morris Park as a racing plant after
the Westminster Racing Association has
transferred its operations to Belmont Park,
are ready to back the measure with all the
influence at their command.
Should such bill pass the legislature
harmony would undoubtedly prevail in the
New York turf world. Morris Park is not
slated to receive dates from the Jockey
Club, although the Messrs. Morris intend
to apply for them, and also for a license
from the New York state racing commits
sion. The argument raised by those who
stand by the Jockey Club is that under the
present law there is no room for the West
d..
ton unless all of the other tracks have
their allotment of dates considerably re-
duced. An addition of thirty days to the
New York racing season, therefore, would
enable Morris Park to have spring and
fall meeting as usual. without friction
Otherwise, it is said, there will be serious
trouble.
Under the present law the New York
state racing commission has absolute DOW
er to grant or refuse license to any track
in the state without appeal If no license
is Forthcoming the Jockey Club can natur-
ally refuse to allot dates. But it is re-
ported that the Messrs. Morris will test the
legality of the law if their magnificent
track is shut out of the circuit AS long as
the Jockey Club sees fit to take racing
away from the metropolitan tracks during
sway at Saratoga, so long will there be a
squeezing of dates for the New York asso-
Citations unless the season is extended.
Therefore the proposed bill to be framed
before January seems to be a feasible way
out Of the difficulty Thirty days more
means an increase in the New York state
racing tax. which will be more than $500
600 again this year. With an extension of
this kind the Washington spring meeting
would have to open about March TO- while
the fall campaign at Benning would not
end until December 20. Said a man close
to men high in New York politics yester-
day:
This bill will be introduced sure. An
effort will be made to secure the Jockey
Clubs cooperation, and then plain sailing
will ensue You can be sure that Morris
fight by those who own the property. The
track will not be cut up into building lots
for some years to come, contrary to f1be
general belief"

take refuge behind the rufes. I suppose no
one can prevent him. r.
Mr.. Brush's opiHion Of the American
League, happily. is not shared by the base
ball public. Mr.. Brush has taken the
stand that to permit his team to play the
Highlanders a post-season series would be
injuring his business as the games would
tend to give the American League, and es-
pecially the HigIanders. advertising that
it would take years to get through the reg
ular course. The gaines would draw thou
sands of base ball fans who never have
witnessed the performances of Grifflth's
boys, and should fortune favor the team on
the hill and the series be won by them the
public naturally would have to acknowledge
the Highlanders the better team Whether
the Highlanders or the Giants are the better
team can only be determined by a post
season series. Doping out the two teams,
however. and declaring one to be the su-
perior of the other will not convince the
public of the relative strength of the two
teams. The fans want to judge for them
selves which is the better team and this
can only be done by the two clubs playing
a post-season series. New York Globe
AT the conference between the schedule
committee of the National and American
Leagues last spring it was the sense of the
spective pennants should play a series for

Quence, by fans all over the country, the
