ANDY 0'DEA IN
A TIGHT PLACE
Only Avoided a Collision by Quick
Turning of His
Launch.

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, June 2o.-During the
practice of the college crews yesterday evening
there came near being a collision between the
Pennsylvania varsity crew and the launch
omeomi, used by Andrew o'4ea for coaching
the Wisconsin crews. 1t caused some excite
ment at the lower end of the four mile course
and led to a rumor that two of the Fights
had been in collision.
All the crews went over the course rowing
down stream with the tide, some going for
time trials and others just for exercising
row. The Columbia varsity had time trial,
starting just as the wisconsin and Pennsyl-
vania crews arrived at the head of the course.
The latter waited until Columbia had got
fairly started when the two Wisconsin Fights
went away, O'Dea following in his launch. The
little craft is not fast enough to keep up with
the crews for four miles at racing speed, altho
it does very well for coaching for short stretches
when the crew simply rowing over the course
for an easy paddle which Wisconsin did. The
result that when O'Dea reached the last
mile he found himself hard pressed by the Penn
sylvania varsity, which rowing in the wake

bent on time row over the
O'Dea was at loss for moment to know
what to do. and then. seeing that the Penn
sylvania coxswain was keeping straight in his
course, he sweryed the launch quickly to the
right and the shell shot by, just missing the
stern Of the launch.
While this was going on the Columbia var
sity were rowing across the finish line. hav-
ing ended their trial Coach Goodwin took tho
men on board the launch and lowed the shell
back to their boathouse above Crum Elbow.
Starting at the head Of the course, the Cornell
crews had spirited race for two miles. Then
they slowed down and finished the distance at
easy paddle. Syracuse and Georgetown also
rowed over the course.
Two men have been taken out Of the Wiscon-
sin varsity boat: onee is Hine. No. Z, who
strained lgament in his shoulder while rowing
yesterday and is incapacitated for the race.
The other is Johnson. No. 2, whose seat has
been given to Richter, substitute. Wilder
has been moved from No. to No. and Bech-
lem has been put in at No. 8. ODea says
the loss Of Hine from No. weakens the
crew.
In the Syracuse varsity s. Rice and Arradin
are still out Ten Eyck says, but they will be
in by Saturday.
Altho the stewards were supposed to have
made everything square for the college crews
when they made recent changes in the courses
for Saturdays races, new cause for objection
has arisen.
Coach Ten Eyck Of Syracuse has pointed ont
that the varsity race at present scheduled
will have to be rowed on slack water, with the
crew inside-which happens to be his-the only
favored one. as far as the ebb tide is con.
cerned.

STORY
OF The WRANGLE
Toledo Man Says Kelley Did Not
Broadcast His Personal
Opinion.
BY oIou,ahIln,

r.
The straight story of the Mike Kelley umpire
controversy reached Minneapolis today, and it
turns out that Kelley has been netting of a
victim of circumstances
8 w. w Landnlan of Toledo, a director in the
baseball company of that city, is In the twin
cities and knows all about the affair. His
story confirms the general impression Of how it
started.
Il met Mike In Toledo shortly after his ar.
rival from Louisville said the Toledo mag.
nate. He Wps feeling very sore over the treat.
OF conversation told that he believed the
umpires had tipped the signals of the Mime
apolis team. He said that he did not propose
to make any row over it, or even make his
and he gave it to me as personal belief not
as a fact. In some way the newspapers got
hold OF 1t and spread on it, with the result
that 1t has made All ugly tangle.'
From other sources 1t begins to look as tho
the Minneapolis man had been made something
of q victim Of desire for publicity on the
part OF some correspondent. Kelley has said
that the story sent out was greatly magnifed
In detail and made the most Of wherever pub
lished. L
Those who know Kelley best expressed doubt,
when the story came out. that the local magnate
had made any such charges without ha wins.
proof to back it up. 1t was thought locally
that II he had some correspondent had taken
advantage of Kelley while he was in the heat
of passion the story had been greatly masni-
fed. 1t was serious charge, and Kelley is

and make such charges openly unless he has
substantial proof Even had the story: been
true, 1T would have been almost impossible to
prove it. e.. -.
In the meantime Tebeau has called a meet
ing Of the directors for tomorrow at Chicago.
II kelley attends the court Of inquiry and tells
his story as told by the Toledo magnate the
whole affair will probably 1szr + -
The Louisville team, Jointly, severally and in
dlV1dually,' has made sworn statements to the
effect that neither Kane nor Owens wigwagged
the signals to them. This was expected. II
is small wonder the afidayits were not filed
Saturday afternoon. '....a s.& ~
At present the court Of inquiry will sit to
investigate charges which Kelley never presented
to the president Of the league and for which he
d1sclaims responsibility. The meeting will look
something like court of canonization for the
umpires with none present to act as the ''dev-
lis advocate" " ~ =,
Today's wires say that George Tebeau was
called to st. Louis last night by the serious
illness of his mother, and may not be able to
attend the Chicago meeting. His proxy, the
specials say, will probably be in the hands of
Charles Havenor. $50 \ -.
