WALKER NEARLY

IN S|X-DAY RAGE.
Australian Drops from Wheel
Unconscious, Sustaining
Broken Collarb0ne.
TOO MUCH FOR
KANGAROO RIDER

BY far the most serious of the many
accidents which have occurred in the
present six-day race at the Garden in
New York took place early this morn-
ing, when Gordon Walker, of the Aus
tralian team, fell unconscious from MS
on the Madison avenue turn n
fell within a few feet of the rail-. his
colarbone was broken and he was
taken unconscious to the hospital.
rho thousands of spectators in the
Garden thought the rider had peen
killed, and the place was in an uproar
until the management announced that
Walker still lived. Men n women
yelled and screamed in terror as the

Up to the time Of the accident to walker
the Kangaroo team had been regarded a.

Almost exhausted by the terrific pace
hours, Palmer was dragged from his COT
and rushed to the track. He pluckily stuck
to his guns and announced that he would
continue in the race as long as he was
able.
The accident was the climax. Of a series
dience on their feet throughout the morn
ing. Despite the many attempts to steal .
lap, the late morning scores showed no
change in the position of the leaders.
Shortly after the seventy-fourth honr
score had been posted, Faber and Lafour-
pluck had won for him the admiration OF
the fans and his withdrawal was greatly
regretted. At times he had forced a bot
pace. He actually rode the other riders

NEWARKS CLUBS
POSITION MOST
UNIQUE OF ALL
If War Breaks Out Local Fran
chise Will Have to Change
Hands.
OWNED BY MEN WHO
WILL HAVE TO FIGHT
~ HOUGH efforts are being made to
prevent war in baseball, the
actin,a &C the National Cnn1nie.

e HOUGH efforts are being made to
prevent war in baseball, the
action CO the National Commits
sion in postponing action on the re-
quests of the Eastern League and
American Association for better CLASH
fcation will bring about trouble. For
one thing, the two big minor leagues
will go it alone hereafter, as far as the
National Association is concerned.
At the present stage of the game
they ar independent, and the big
leagues are preparing to refuse the re-
quests, though ut first it was thought
thaI the demands would be granted at
once.
Now the two big minor leagues, or
independents. will go it alone. They
are sore at the big leagues M bitter
against the microbes. In the event of
a war breaking out among the baseball
bodies, and it is more than likely that
it will, Newark will enjoy the most
unique position of any club in either
association.
The local club is owned by George IT.
~Stallings--at least the Farrell-Stallings
combination controls the club. Should
the big leagues decide to fight the big
minors, the Newark club would be
lighting itself, unless. in order to adjust
matters, the local club is disposed of
by George T. Stallings.
Few bids We're made for. the local
franchise when it was on the market,
and in the event of var being declared
there viii be fewer, as little money is
made in baseball during a war.
The owners of the Newark club are
anxious for peace. They will be in
favor Of more concessions for the min
ors, although they will have to stand
by the American League first of all.
There will be a meeting of the two
big minor leagues this afternoon, and
an effort will be made TO lay plans for
future protection.
The big minors wish immediate
action. They will in all probability go
before the National League again to
sound the parent major on the situa-
tion. Now that the commission has
sjdetracked the motion for a month. the
Eastern League and American Asso-
citation desire at least an understanding
with the majors. They demand either
favorable legislation, or, at least, a
good excuse for putting the matter
over.
The ultinatum, coming so unexpect-
eddy, somewhat startled the colony of
baseball ~nagnates now gathered to-
sether in New York. It not only shows
ihst the minors will stick rigidly to
their demands. but that war is prefer
able TO the present yoke. In the esti-
nation of the big minors, the excuses
offered for delay by the National Asso-
citation were weak. indeed. Yet. despite
this, the commission granted time until
the January 4 meeting of the commits
sion at Cincinnati TO prepare answers
to the demands of the disgruntled
Leagues.
Lawyer Killilea. who Is handling the
cause of the reTolutionists, is hopeful
thai the commission and big leagues
will see a way of settling the difficulty
at once. Presidents o'Brien and Pow
ers arc bound to be furnished ct least
reasonable excuses for delay.
