DENY CHICAGO CHARGE.
Worlds Greatest Athlete Denounces
Accusation, as Do Others.

NEW YORK. September 6.-New York
athletes who were accused of profession
aasm by the Chicago A. a. u. oficials
resented the charge In language that
could not be misunderstood.
Martin Sheridan, the worlds greatest
athlete. who was accused of having re-
ceived 500 besides expenses for having
competed at the Gaelic games In Chi
cago last week branded the entire re-
port as lie.
why, those people In Chicago owe
me money now" said he Il haven't
received my actual expenses from them.
Matt McGrath, who was on the trip
with me. made out our bills when we
cago. / spent something like 500 out
of my own pocket, but as yet ! have
not got a cent of 1t back.
IF the report is true that some New
Yorker is the instigator OF this report
I'll send some one to jail No one has
have any other citizen. AS soon as |
learn who circulated such report I'll
make it hot for him."
John Flanagan, the worlds greatest
Others of having demanded excessive
expense money, said: Il know nothing
about any meet In Chicago. I never
was asked to compete there. and never
wrote asking TO compete there. There
fore it seems very unfair to me to be
accused of having done something ]
know nothing about
Jim Crowley, the marathon and dis
lance runner of the Irish-American A.
c., treated the report as a huge joke.
I'm have to get new manager" said
Crowley IF l find out who has been
writing letters asking for 500 I'll fire
him. Why should l get only 500. when
Sheridan gets 500? l think I'll get Jim
Sullivan to do my advance work here
after. He might be able to get me
more money
But, seriously, those people must be
crazy. / received a letter from some
one in Chicago some time ago asking
me to run there today. It stated that
the association which was holding the
back. 1 failed to answer 1t because
was entered In my own club games,
which will be held at Celtic Park today.

It lies in the most favored location. and if sale be made the new own CTS are expected to commence work at once. It is Mexican corporation, and has never been incorporated in the states. although all of the owners arc Americans.
