Usual Denial Entered, but There
May Be Some Fire Behind
This Smoke.
BY @. A. FALzER.

Who in the, world will manage the

rumors are becoming almost annoying.

New York Americans next year." An
other day it's "Stallings will stick
with the Newark club" And now
Dame Rumor has it that Ed Barrow.

team. may handle the Bengals in 1909.
Stallings has repeatedly denied there

hind the first report. Still. he may be

show his hand, and certain little move
In the past have at least left room for
doubt.
Should the Georgian decide t oJtake up
the management of the Yankees, IL he
hasn't decided yet, the most logical
candidate for the Newark end would be
Barrow.
1t is true that Barrow has been gum
shoeing about the Newark boss a
whole lot during the last two months.
At Toronto during the Tigers July trip
George and Ned took many a stroll to
a lonesome spot. where there was little
danger of being overheard.
At that time the Toronto club was
about to shake it's manager, Mike
Kelley, and it was believed that Ned
might be Michaers successor. Things
didn't pan out that way, and after the
Tigers had struck Montreal Barrow
was still closeted in secret conferences
with Stallings.
All this has given foundation to the
reports that Stallings would not be
with Newark mex season. There are

MURPHY AND CROSS
READY FOR FIGHT.

NEW YORK, SEPT. Both Tommy
Murphy, of Harlem, and Leach Cross,
the East Slider, who will meet tomor-
row at the Navarro Athletic Club, In
Ulmer Park to decide the lightweight
championship of the East, are in per-
feet condition for their bout. They
have quit hard training. but will con-
tinue light work until the night of the
battle.
Each of the boys is confident of win
ming. Murphy has worked faithfully at
Fishkill, and, with the aid of several
trainers who previously were in the
employ of Cross, has learned many of
the East Side fighters tricks. Murphy
is confident that he will cause Cross to
uncover and that he will then score a
knockout.
Cross is just as sure he will be the
victor. Aware of the fact that Murphy
al being assisted by his former train
ers, Cross engaged several well-known
fighters whose style Murphy Is not IA
miliar with. In this way Cross believes
he has learned enough new blows to
beat the Harlem boy.

ENTRIES FOR VANDERBILT.
RACE CLOSE OCTOBER |.

The entry lists of the Vanderbilt cup
race will no close today, as originally
announced. Chairman jefferson De-
mont Thompson, of the cup commits
sion, announced yesterday that the
commission had decided to extend the
date or closing until October 1, the
date originally set for post entries at
double fees, n that all entries named
before that date would be accepted at
the single entry rate. The announce
ment was not unexpected, as the num-
Der of entrants was not sufficiently
large to justify closing. and it was nee
essary to remove any possible barrier
that might debar prospective contest
ants. There Is one phase of the change
of date that is peculiar. Should an
elimination race be necessary, notice of
it must be given at least twenty days
before the elimination date, October 10.
This would require notice on September
20, or before the final date of closing.
There would seem to be nothing to
prevent entries after the time fixed for
notification, thus enabling entrants to
name possibly after it has been deter
mined that there shall be no elimina-
ton race.
There has been a conviction among a
large number of those familiar with
the conditions that there would be no
elimination race on account of the lack
of more than ten entries. Until yes
terday this seemed certain. Yesterday
there was some change in the situation.
Two additional formal entries were re-
~ceived-two Knox cars, while assur-
ance was received from A. L. Riker
that there would be two Locomobiles
as well. This makes five American en-
tries formally made, with the Acme,
Chadwick and Mora. besides the
Thomas entry, assured, but not yet
formally made, or eight American cars
all told. The only foreign entry to
late Is the Mercedes.

bers of New York clubs, and who have
run for these clubs within the last
three months are finding it difficult to
run with a New Jersey club. IL the
committee would only allow Jersey
runners to run under New York club
colors, there would be an entry list so
large that 1t would AXE two days, in
stead of one to run this race off.
THE EVENING STAR inaugurated
this race for the sole purpose of en-
couraging Jersey runners to run for
Jersey honors. 1t was specifically
stated that no New York clubs would
be eligible, and this is the first time in
tho history of this State, as far as
athletics is concerned, hat the Jersey
runner was given any encouragement
to enter for local honors. The offer of
THE EVENING STAR of $3.50 either
in a trophy or medals, or whatever the
winning club desired to that amount,
has never been equaled in any ath-
letic stunt pulled off here in this State.

for honors in a long distance event

The A. A. U. has sanctioned the run,
and there remains nothing to be done
now but for the several clubs which
have any argument to being an athletic
organization to get it's best men out.
The matter of distributing the run
ners at their posts must of necessity
be left to the clubs themselves. 1t Is
impossible to take these men and drop
