BOWLING POLITICS.
Illinois and Wisconsin Are Planning to
Oppose the East

A special from Chicago says that since
the announcement made by Secretary Sam
karpf of the strength of the American
bowling congress, Chicagoans are figuring
upon their power in the business meeting to
be held in Milwaukee this month in con-
nection with the national tournament. The
figures show that If Illinois and Wisconsin
combine they can control the legislation
ana decide where the next tournament
goes, as well as adjusting the weight Of
bowling balls. OF late the Chicago players
have shown a disposition to refuse to alter
the present sixteen and one-half pound
limit, and 1t may be that the fasteners
rule Will be fought by the Illinois deiega-
ton. u
so FAR as can be estimated now, there Will
be about ninety-five votes inathe congress,
OF which number Illinois has twenty, with
thirteen coming from Chicago. Wisconsin
also has twenty. with Milwaukee ten. In
case of division of opinion between the
two states Illinois would still have a
chance. But the two combined would have
almost half the voting strength of the or
ganiZatiOn. 20.
Secretary Karpf is in receipt of sixty
eight applications from associations repre-
senting $50 clubs to- join the; national or
ganization, Chicago leading with l2S. MIL
waukee registers an even no, while Pitts
burg has enlisted 49, Philadelphia Il.
San Francisco IS, Seattle, ST.. Paul
and Baltimore 16 each, Denver IL and
Buffalo 10. Some strong cities, like Cleye-
land. Indianapolis, Wheeling. Toledo.
Washington. ID. c.; Kansas City. Detroit,
st. Louis and Peoria, have yet to be heard
from, with a possible chance of hearing
from New York.

NORRIS HORSES BARRED.
Failed to Pay Forfeit on Gypsey Ben in
Dixie Stakes,

Green B. Morris, probably the Oldest
trainer of thoroughbreds in the country, a
man who won in three seasons nearly
100000, and who has paid during his long
career on the turf 100000 in entrance
money to the various racing associations
OF the country, is the latest victim of the
jockey clubs sudden decision to enforce the
rule pertaining to delinquent horsemen who
are the forfeit list. For $40 entrance
fee at Benning track, that became oper-
alive when he made nomination In a
stake two years ago, his recent entries from
California were rejected and the oppor-
tunity TO race his horses here in the rich
events this summer denied him.
In 1902 he had entered a colt called
Gypsey Ben in the Dixie stakes, which were
to be decided in 1C04 at Benning. The colt
was a failure and had passed out of his
hands but under the rules he was liable for
the $40. This fee he had forgotten
A charge against Morris was made on the
books of the Washington Jockey Club for
SO. 1t Is customary at the close of meet
ing to notify horsemen who are in arrears
Morris claims that this was not done. and
he, rot knowing that he owed $40. or that
the jockey club would enforce the payment
of all fees before accepting an entry, sent
a number of nominations to the racing sec
retaries in New York, all of which were re-
sected

The rules of last year were readopted No
action was taken On the application of the
professional Road Drivers Association for
a change In the entrance fees. They had
asked that the present system of charging
D per cent for each horse entered in a stake
race be changed that the owner who
enters more than one horse be not required
TO pay the full percentage for each entry.
This request was presented both to the
stewards and to the board of review in the
winter, out no action was taken by either
body 1t has been left entirely to the
managers of the various tracks, who may
name percentage fee of less than per
cent if they desire.

evening Pulliam started back east. an

time. This is taken in Chicago to mean
that the Taylor case has been practically
dropped by the nation$ commission.

failure to clear up the muddle He saws
President Hart has broadly intimate1 that
he paid Taylor to throw the game. and he
wants a chance to get all the facts ont into

that the nasty affair should not be taken
up at once and settled. Comiskey saws
there Is also Taylor scandal in Pittsburs
but no one has the hardihood to associate
the name Of Barney Dreyfuss with it. He
insists there would be as much Justice and
fairness in that course, however. as there
is in connecting him with the Taylor scan
