Newark has again been made the
training camp for most of the cyclists
who will compete in the six-day race
on the saucer track at Madison Square
Garden. New York, during the week OF
December Z to IA. Bobby Walthour,
the American motor-paced champion,
who will meet Darragon in an inter-
national championship race next Sat
urday night, and the foreign riders
came on to this city today, the latter
being quartered at Woelhe's Hotel,
Central venue and Twelfth street.
Most of the European riders arrived
yesterday on the steamer La Provence.
In the squad were Walter Rutt, of
Germany, and Johann Sto1. of Holland,
who will team together; Edmund
~Jacquelin, of France, who Is to race
Frank Kramer for the worlds sprint
ing championship next Saturday, and
ride in the siX-day race with Carl
Vanoni, of Italy; Leon Gorget and Vie

From the records and past performances
OF the foreign riders, it would appear that
never before has the six-day CHAMPION
snip been In such danger of being carried
across the water. Not only will the niclr
OF the champions from abroad try for tba
prize, but there will be more foreleners
competing than ever before.
Walthour signed up yesterday TO ride in
this years race with Matt Downey. the
sturdy little Boston racer. Although
there are going to be some crack teams
IN the coming struggle it is doubtful If
there viii be a stronger combination than
Walthour and Downey. Downey's rid
ing In the siX-day race during the past
TWO seasons was of the most brilliant
description. He has been training hard
for the contest on the saucer track in the
Park Square Rink, at Boston, and will be
able to more than hold up his end of the
team. Walthour has entirely recovered
from the bad falls which he had In Ger
many during the season Just closed abroad.
A meeting of all the riders who will com
pete in the six-day grind will be called
the latter part Of next week by the man
Ggernent of the race for the purpose OF
having the new rules thoroughly explained
to the contestants. The officials of the
National Cycling Association will also be
present, and every rider will thus be thor
onghly conversant with them and there
fore have absolutely no excuse for foul
riding. These rules will be enforced in
their s~trictest sense and any offender Is
to be vigorously dealt with.

The Newark Football Club lodged a pro-
test with the association against award
ing the second round tie played between
Newark and the Philadelphia Thistles last
Saturday which was won by the latter.
Newarks reasons for protest were that
the referee selected by the association
arrived on the ground beyond the adver-
tised time for kickoff and that the This
ties had used a player under suspension
by the Pennsylvania Association Football
League. As the Philadelphia club was not
represented at the meeting action on the
protest was deferred. A special meeting
of the association will be called next week,
at which time the Thistles will be given a
chance to explain.

FITZGERALD WINNER.
Brooklyn Fighter Stops Andy McGarry
in Eleven Rounds.

BALTIMORE, Md, Nov. 30.-With Andy
McGarry, Of New York. hanging helplessly
on the ropes. Referee Billy Recap stopped
last nights contest in the eleventh round
and awarded the decision to Willie Fitz-
gerald, of Brooklyn. The contest was
scheduled to go fifteen rounds, and took
place before the Eureka Athletic Club.
McGarry was as game as a pebble and
took an awful iacing, but was no match
for the crafty Brooklyn boy. Ten times
the New Yorker was sent to the floor with
heavy rights and lefts to the face and
jaw. but he always came back for more.
Fitzgerald was by far the ~cleaverer of the
two and also the heavier. In the tenth
round McGarry went to the canvas three
times. He came up gamely in the eleventh.
Fitzgerald sailed right in and drove terrific
rights and lefts to the face and jaw and
soon had McGarry in such condition that
he was unable to defend himself any longer
and Recap stopped the bout.
