English Association Guarding
american 4n0teurisn1.

Fred Wall, secretary of the Football
Association, Ltd, of England, has addressed
q communication to the American Football
Associa ton. the only soccer football or
ganization in this country affiliated with
the parent body across the water. in which
q warning IS given in the matter of con-
tracing to play matches of an international
character. All Of such matches. the ad-
vices said, must first receive the sanction
of the Football Association, Ltd.
No special reason was given for thus ad-
dressing the American association, but 1t
is surmised that it is the desire of the
British board Of control TO obviate any
likelihood of future amateur teams sent
out from there playing against eieVens
here into which the professional element
has crept more or less. 1t Is thought that
possibly the Pilgrims may have lodged a
complaint to this effect with the Football
Association, Ltd
The movement to organize soccer foot
ball in this country on a larger and more
comprehensive scale, which thus far has
not attained definite shape, has come to
the attention of the American Football
Association. The membership Of this
sociation comprises clubs in New York,
New Jersey. Pennsylvania and New Eng
land and the delegates of these clubs are
of one mind on the subject Of national
control, which will not be relinquished-
The fact of the associations affiliations

pointed TO, and, Furthermore, It is an
organization of many years standing. The
members stand ready to assist in widening
its sphere of usefulness and desire properly

AULD FOUND GUILTY?
On Tnoo Counts, Reports Say
Father to Fight.

Boston, Feb. 5-AiSnough the members
of the court martial In the case of Naval
Paymaster George p. Auld, who was ac-
cused of assaulting DR.. Edward S. Cowles
at hop at the navy yard here, are reti-
cent as to their findings, there is reason to
believe that the officer has been found
guilty on two charges and not guilty on
one. The charge Of which he is thought to
have been acquitted is that of telling
falsehood. The other charges on which he
Is believed to have been convicted involve
the maItreatins of civilian and conduct
unbecoming an officer and gentleman
It. has been recommended, 1t is said, that
he be reduced in rank few numbers. prob
ably not exceeding six.
Paynnaster Auld expressed no surprise
when informed of the probability that he
had been convicted on two of the three
counts brought against him in the court
martial. The third count, that of false
hood. was nolIe pressed. on motion of the
fudge advocate. The paynaster said he
understood that II he had been acquitted
of the other charges he would have been
notified of the fact under the usual naval
procedure He said he had not been so
notified.
Beyond expressing satisfaction that tho
whole story had come out in the court
martial proceedings, Paymaster Aud de-
clined to make any comment.
Joseph Auld, of Burlington, VI, the
father of Paymaster Aud. said to-day that
his son would probably institute proceed
ines In the Supreme Court of the District
of Columbia to restrain Secretary Meyer, OF
the Navy Department, from enforcing any
penalty He is understood TO have gone to
Washington.
Mr. Auld disputes the legality of the
court martial on the ground that his son
had been previously reprimanded IN the
same case by Secretary Meyer. In other
words, Mr.. Auld declares that his son
should not be punished twice for the same
offence.
Washington. Feb. 5.-When the dispatch
from Boston bearing on the findings of the
court martial which tried Paymaster
George Percival Aud, United States navy
was shown TO naval officials here they re-
fused absolutely to discuss the case in any
way.
The record of the court martial reached
this city from Boston this morning. 1t
was referred to the judge advocate general
of the navy for review and in order to
ascertain whether the proceedings were
strictly legal.

BaItu@oL Links FaUored for
Golf Cham monship.

Just at present members of the New Jer-
sey state Golf Association are in quan-
dary as to the probable selection OF
course for their next annual championship
tournament
When a semi-oficial application for the
attraction was made by al Essex County
Country Club delegate at the annual meet
ing of the association the general impress
sion was that the Hutton Park organiza-
ton would In all probability be the choice
Whether or not the Essex County club
really wants the tournament cannot be as
certained until after a meeting Of the
board of governors TO be held shortly
Since the meeting, however. many of the
New Jersey golfers have expressed de-
cided preference for Baltusrol. This pop
ular organization did not offer its links,
probably because the New Jersey tourna-
ment has already been held there on two
occasions When the situation was pre-
sented to Louis Keller. secretary of the
Baltusrol Golf Club, last night, he said 1t
would be impossible to decide offhand one
way or the other, but he promised to put
the matter before the governors in the near
future.
Although Baltusrol has been more or less
snowbound ever since Christmas, the club
has by no means been idle. Committees for
the new season have been appointed rs fol-
lows:
House-William Fel1owes Morgan, Fredge
Riach and J.. c. Hack.
Greene. J. Sullivan, T. c. Ennever and
O. W. Rogers. -'
The same officers will continue TO serve
another year. Recently all the greens re-
ceived a liberal covering Of top dressing
and were closed temporarily. In fact, the
whole course is being treated in much the
same manner, which means that with any
thing like good luck the turf will become
more luxurfant than before.
