WALLABIES ARE ON
WAY TO THIS
COUNTRY
Arrival Here of the Australian
Rugby Team May Be De-
Iayed by WashOufs
By William Unn1ack

Word was received in the city yes
terday that the Australian Rugby team
left Liverpool on the Arabic last Friday
afternoon. The Arabic is due in New
York next Saturday, and the team will
leave at once for the west.
Owing To the large number of wash
outs on the railroads 1t is doubtful If
the team will be able to make the rapid
time it expected. In a letter received
from Manager Mcmahon of the Austria
lians ne says the members of the team
viii be unable to play on the day of ar
rival, as they could not do justice to
themselves or the public Should their
arrival be delayed their first game Will
be played on Monday. February s.
A meeting Of all interested in the visit
of the team here has been called for to-
night at 1882 Fulton street. large
gathering is expected, as notices We're
sent 10 clubs that are said to be anX
ious TO help in the movement to give
the Rugby champions a fitting welcome.
The Wallabies played % games alto
gethec, winning u, drawn one and lost
four. Included in their victories were
the Olympic championship series, played
at the Crystal Palace stadium, London.
They also defeated France, England
and the powerful Anglo-Wel team
that played in Vancouver last October.
With such a record. it is natural that
local interest in the coming OF the team
is increasing. and the meeting tonight
viii be big factor in organizing fit
ting welcome.
