TOPIC DISCUSSED BY
THE TENNIS PLAYERS

NEW YORK. November 10-Oflcials Of
the United States National Lawn Tennis
Association said this week that the revolu-
ton threatened within the ranks Of the
English governing body would not change
the decision OF the Americans to challenge
for the International cup next season. The
sentiment was never stronger n>this coun-

emblematic Of the championship Of the
world
Declaring that he was not In favor or
sympathy with the working OF politics in
sport, the young American expert, H. L.
Westfali. who has recently returned from
abroad, said that the difficulty within the
English association was due to Secretary
Palmer's connection with firm Of manu-
facturers, and that the feeling that had
been growing here, that the men who were
active players should rule In the sport,
was stronger there than here.
Another Of the American experts familiar
with the conditions abroad and at home
stated that there was sure to be wedding

meeting. This player said that the anna

had been talked of abroad because OF his

PRESIDENT PUlLlAM
WILL BE REELECTED

CHICAGO, November 10.-The opposition
to President Harry Puiham has about pc
tered out and It is absolutely certain that
when the National League chief comes up
for reelection in December he will be re-
tadned in his present position by a vote OF
b to z, and possibly almost unanimously.
Further thar this, he will be elected for
term Of three years. thus doing away
with the annual fight put up by John T..
Brush and making Mr.. Pulliam secure III
his position. The fight on the president
amounted to nothing. as Mr.. Brush was
able to secure no ally in his plan to GUST
the executive officer of the National League
excepting President Hermann of the Reds.
Mr.. Brush himself could Influence no other
magnate.
It was little more than a crude Joke to
start a contest against Mr.. Pulliam at this
time. Under his leadership the National
League closed the season with every club
q money winner. This pleasing condition
was largely due to the pres dents firm con-
troll Of his umpires and his persistent strug-
gle for clean ball on the field.

NORFOLK. Va. November 10-The end

FIRST TO RUN 100
YARDS IN TEN SECONDS

PHILADELPHIA. Pa. November 10.-A
discussion was started recently by bunch
of sprinters as to who was the first man to
run hundred yards in ten seconds In
America. The question was left to Al
Copeland to decide. and he said that he was
not sure whether 1t was R. L. LaMontagne.
w. C. Wilmer or Horace Lee. As Copeland
mentioned LaMontague's name first It was
taken for granted that LaMontagne was
really the first man to run the century In
even time in this country.
This misstatement was printed in several
New York newspapers. and w. c. Wilmer.
an old New York Splinter. at once wrote
to COPELAND claiming the honor OF having
first run ten seconds.
Wilmer claims to have run ten seconds at
the championships in 1878. and also to have
beaten LaMontagne at Short Hills in even
time In a special hundred.
An examination Of the handicappers
book giving the results of all games held In
1875, shows that Wilmer was the winner OF
the championship in that year. and that he
did beat LaMontagne in their match race,
but before either Wilmer or LaMontagne
was credited with ten seconds Horace Lee.
then a student at the University OF Penn
sylyania, won the hundred at the spring
games of the university in ten seconds. and
there appears a notation opposite his name
in the official record, First man to run 1oo
yards in ten seconds in America
At the spring meet OF the Manhattan A.
c. on June % of the same year. at Its OLD
grounds, LaMontagne won the one hundred
in even time, beating Wilmer, but one week
later Wilmer turned the tables at Short
Hills in the special race. and broke into
the ten-second class
It was at the championships on october
q, 1873, that Wilmer proved himself the
best Splinter Of the year. That was before
Lon Myers had broken into fast company.
The championships were then held by the
New York A. c., and were known as the
New York A. C. games. They were held
at Mott Haven this year, and Wilmer won
the final heat of the hundred from LaMon-
tagne by two yards. with Lee third. one
yard behind LaMontagne. The time TOT
this race was ten seconds. and made 1t
Winners first real ten-second performance
for although he was timed in ten seconds
at Short Hills, little credit was given him
for the time, as the track at that place
was known as downhill course.

JAKE WELLS WILL BE
CHOSEN TO HIS OLD PLACE

RICHMOND. Va. November 1O.-Ever
since the Sth of September when the base
ball season in the Virginia State League
closed. there has been talk of a new pres-
dent of the association; that Jake Wells
would retire as the executive head.
1t might be said right here that there is
practically no ground for the rumor and
that he will remain the big man in a new
league that has every possibility of bein 6
one of the strongest minor organzation in
the country.
The report that President Boyer of the
South Atlantic League would come to the
Virginia League is denied
Both Mr.. Boyer and Mr.. Wells are bal
ball cranks. Mr. Boyer Is father Of the
fast South Atlantic League. and the local
man might be called the father of the six
club Old Dominion organization.
