A Serious Charge.

Among the things which are charged
against the officials of the athletic gov
erning body Of Canada is the sanction
OF professional doings By Tom Longboat.
It is alleged that Longboat has received
money for racing. apd that the purses
he has won have been shared with GER
tain officials Of the Canadian A A. q
A Montreal newspaper last week
printed a story that Longboat accepted
money for running ar a recent meet In
Ottawa Secretary Crow. OF the Cana
dian body. denied the truth Of the story,
but when asked TO produce proof to the
contrary was unable 20 do so. While
for some months it has been suspected
by sport followers in New York that
Longboat was virtually a professional,
II was not deemed advisable by the A.
A. L. Of this country to take steps to
prove the suspicious. as long as the
Canadian a. A. u. vouched for Long
boats amateur status
May Make Indian Pro.
The A. A. L. of Canada may yet de-
clare the Indian a professional. but from
knowledge Of the men who are in power
it IS thought that no such action viii
1t is probable that the final break be-
tween the associations will take place at
or near the time of the national A A u.
championships in September. The Mon
treal a. a. L, which has been at
swords points with the Canadian gov
erning body since the skating troubles
