Position Of pr. PIummer.


When asked about the case by a
Herald reporter, Or. PIummer had the
following to say:
Regarding the case of Jack Hume,
over which there ia some dispute, am
simply laying down the law al given
by the A. A. L. when l say that Hume.
having left track athletics for cycle
racing and then re-entered college ath-
letics, becomes a professional. Neither
l nor anyone else disputes the state
ment that he is an amateur cyclist for
he has been so declared by the y. G..
y. But he was warned early in the
summer that his riding on the saucer
track would endanger his standing as
an amateur in case he wished to again
enter college athletics
DIR. Plummer is quoted in the Deseret
News OF last evening as saying:
1T is doubtful IL Hume could play
on team where the university is care
full about its professionals In most
cases intercollegiate agreements would
bar him. ii no higher authority had
made ruling. as such cases are usu-
ally more fragrant than that OF the
popular rider"
Immediate friends OF Hume point 10
the case OF Marcus Hurley. Hurley is
and has been for years the champion
bicycle rider of the world He has rid
den and does ride under the same y. &.
\. rules under which Hume rode at the
saucer track Hurley competed with
lver Lawson at London in September,
1905. for the worlds amateur cham
pionship. which Lawson won. Hurley
not only competed against Q profess
sional in this case, but he received
money 10 pay his transportation and
expenses to Europe, which was al
lowed by the y. c. A. and sanctioned
by the A. A. L.
Hurley this fall entered Columbia
and Is now q member of the foot ball
squad OF that school. He Is also train
ing to become one of the colleges high
Jumpers Columbia Is one of the
strietest colleges i'm the country OH am
ateurism and operates under the same
rules as Harvard. Yale, Princeton and
other big eastern colleges. The fact
that he is a bicycle rider of such prom
inence is known 10 every college in the
country and was paraded by the east
ern press at the time he Joined the CO.
lumbia team.
1t is said that the Hume case was
taken up by the athletic board at the
university and Hume was informed 10
go ahead and try for tho team This he
did ana his name was published in the
lineup TO play the Sols sers next Tues
day. Dr.. Piummer again notified Mad
dock that he would not allow Hume
to play. There the case stands.

No Accounting Made.

DO you know how much of these
moneys was paid to Governor Budd?"
asked counsel for the committee.
Mr.. McCurdy said he did not know,
and that to his kn wIea=e
ing of disbursements was made by Mr.
Chickering.
Mr.. McCurdy said he went to Cali
fornia, but did not meet Mr.. Clunie. to
whom the $3.50 was paid i'll all the six
weeks he was there. The New York
Life and the Mutual were also paying
$3.50 a month to the same man for the
same service rendered the Equitable,
said the witness.
Another demand which the witness
said MIR. Clunie made was that COM
plete set of the Equitable society
books be kept at the offices of the San
Francisco agency. which would have
cost the society about $4,000. He also
said that under the law of California
the commissioner could have collected
his 5000 fee from the Equitable So
ciety upon making his proposed val
uations of its policies
The states generally do not make
Independent examinations of the New
York companies. Mr. McCurdy said.
Missouri once demanded it, but at
the request of the society had accepted
the New York valuation Minnesota
made such a valuation four or five
years go.
