OPPOSED TO SYNDICATE BASEBALL
National Commission Defines Its Attitude = Murray's Claim Not Decided-Wisconsin Wrestler After Jack McGrath-Sports of the Day.

Cincinnati, O., Jan. 5.-A straight declaration against syndicate base balI' in the report of August Herr mann, chairman of the national base ball commission, was the feature Of the annual meting of that body today. Sev- eral decisions were handed down after adjournment.
 The initial appearance of Thomas J. Lynch,president of the National league, as a member of the commission was made the excuse for turning the meet ing into something of a feStal occasion. Tonigth he was the guest of honor at a and President Johnson of the Ameri- can league.
 Murray's Claim Passed Up.
 William Murray's statement of his claim against the Philadelphia National league club was not made public He asserted that he had a contract calling for his services as manager until after the season of 1911, but that the new management of the club refuses to car ry out the agreement

 Personal Applications from "Outlaws."
 Another finding declared that play CTS of the California State league, the outlaw" organization which recently subscribed to the national agreement, must make personal application for restoration to good standing.

THE 100 YARDS
 IN g 2-5 sEcoNDs7
Princeton Has Phenom Who May Do
 It-T. r. PendIeton of Virginia.

For years the possibility of any spr1nter ever running 100 yards in 3 2-5 seconds unless greatly aided by the wind on "a down grade has been scientists, former athletes and athletic critics galore. Some few there are who will admit that it can be done, but a vast majority of them declare that 3-5 is about the limit.
 Now appears three men. all of them well known to the athletic loving pub lie. and at least two of them in a position to give weight to their words who declare that Princeton university at this present minute harbors kid who, given time, should lower the time first made by Arthur Duffy.
 T. T. Pendleton of Berkeley Springs. Va, a freshman at the jungle univer- sity, is the prospective record break CT, and Jim Mccormick. head coach of the Princeton football team last year, and one of the greatest fullbackS trainer at the university of Virginia, and old Bill Foley, who Is in charge of the track team at the Georgetown university, are his sponsors Al Cope land who, up to last summer. coached the Tiger team, also looks upon Pen dleton as one of the coming champs but does not go so far as to predict a record breaking career for him
 Pendleton gave more than hint of what might be expected of him when, as a schoolboy. he ran for the Episco- pal high school, and four times scooted the century in even time. Flying the same colors, he made record of 22 3-5 seconds for the 220. He has the ideal build for a sprinter, standing feet g in his socks. and weighing in the neighborhood of 160 pounds
 Nor does he conf1ne his athletic ac- tivities to the cinder path. He stars at either baseball or football, and was captain of the freshman eleven at Princeton last fall. He hadn't been on the team two days before the coaches opened their eyes and took notice and before the season was over they de- clared him the greatest quarterback Princeton has had in years.
 Pendleton hasn't nearly reached his full development. He is only little past IS now, and should not be at his best for a couple of years, if then. With the sort of training he might be expected to receive at Princeton there is no telling what he may do before he winds up his collegiate career.

RINesIDE GOSSIP.

Mike Twin Sullivan has the for eign bee in his bonnet and is seriously contemplating a trip to Paris to chal- lenge the winner of the Willie Harry place in that city Jan. 22.
 Sandy Ferguson is trying hard to get the Pittsburg promoters to give him a chance and has even gone so far as to say that he will be in condition for a six round bout with any heavyweight in the country by the last week in January.
 It sems to be the growing impress sion among those that follow boxing that Hugh Mcintosh is looking for free advertising. The latest break by Me- Intosh is to offer a $40.000 purse for another battle in Australia between Johnson and Tommy Burns
 Battling Nelson continues ito an- nounce just what terms he intends to make for all future contests. The bat ting one has become unpopular in England with the promoters with whom he agreed to meet Freddie Welch for twenty round for a definite guarantee. and afterward shifted, so that the pro- posed match Is practically off.
 Joe Jeannette has cabled from Paris that he has five more contests in the French hamlet and will be unable to sail from France before the first week in February. This means that Sam Langford must continue to meet lot of easy marks in this country, for there is no one in sight to make a re- spectable showing against the Cam bridge black.
 Abe Attell has about reached his limit in meeting broken down boxers. Attell, who was, and is yet, a wonder fully clever boxer, has been knocking about the country stalHng against lot of second raters, yet occasionally showing a flash of his old form by giv- ing some of these angels" a severe beating. Eddie Kelly of Buffalo was AttelPs most recent victim. the Bison being soundly thrashed by the feather weight champion for the third time. The police of New Orleans had to in terfere Saturday night to prevent a possible fatality.

Wagner at First Base.

Pittsburg, Jan. 5.-President Barney Dreyfuss of the Pirates is seriously contemplating the permanent shifting of Hans Wagner, his champion bats man and shortstop, to the initial cor ner of the diamond. He thinks as a first baseman the big Dutchnan will have less to do, thereby prolonging his use as a slugger for the Pirates to the extent of several years. Hans played the bag on several occasions and filled the bill. The Pittsburg management it Is said, have their eye on a good shortstop and are willing to exchange Willis. Leever, Phillippi, Liefield and an outflelder with some cash if they can secure him. In case the deal does not go through Abbaticchio may be the initial guardian.

in Shape to Trim Waterbury.


 John Combies and Allie Murphy were splitting the wood on the Rose alleys on Wednesday, tearing off some good strings in preparation for meeting the Waterbury team of two in their first half of ten game series. That $100 purse that is up the match looks nigh ty attractive to the Norwich duo, and they intend to cinch it from the start if possible. To that end they will be out after high scores from the start and as total pinfall counts, it will be the aim of the Norwich pair to estab- fish a nice lead tonight on the home alleys, so that when they finish up in Waterbury next week they will have margin to fall back on.
 Stone and Teller, the Waterbury pair. are not believed to be any strong CT than the New Haven team, whose scalp the Norwich rollers lifted. If Murphy's curve is working right and Combies plugs the pins, for Waterbury it will be goodnight, soon os the match begins.

Leave the eame Alone. says coy.

Leave the game alone, is the advice of Ted Coy, last year captain of the Yale football team, who is in Atlanta, Ga. as a member of the Yale Glee club.
 The only chance the rule makers could make is to cut out the forward pass save on the fire down. This would do away with a lot of the supposed danger from this pass. There are few football men who have played the game or who have followed it closely who really feel that the sport is as danger ous as pictured. On the big teams the injuries are scarce, this being because the men go into the game fit and con- ditioned.

Dan Patch's Last Mile.

Dan Patch made his last race in Los Angeles, Cal, in a slow race and a drizzling rain. Elmer Mcconnell, one of the first who had the care of Dan Patch, saw the pacer go the last mile. The old kings legs have quit. The time was 215 1-2, a record that many younger horses would like to equal The veteran driver, H. c. Hersey, said the exhibition was the saddest in his experience.
 M. w. Savage, the kings owner re- fused a purse of S10,00O to let Dan Patch make an exhibition race in St Louis on Sunday. In reply to the re- quest came this answer: Dan has be- come a member of the Methodist church."

Joe connor New Hritain's Manager.


 It is announced that Joseph F. Con- nor of Waterbury, for several years a member of the Springfield team, has been secured by William Hanna to manage the New Britain club of the Connecticut league. Rumors that Con- nor was to be swapped for First Base man Mason of the New Britain team have been current for some time. The deal by which Connor takes charge of the New Britain team has been com pleted.
 Joe Connor got his first chance in professional ball through his brother, Roger Connor, playing with Waterbury. While with Fall River of the New Eng land league twelve years ago Connor occupied at times every position with the exception of the box, and he was expected to become as great a ball player as his famous brother. Connor remained with Fall River several sea sons and then went to the Eastern league, playing with Newark and Mon- treal. At one time he was signed by the New York Americans, but was never given a chance by Clark Grif- fiths to show what he could do. Some few years ago he joined Springfield and has played with that club ever since.
 He is married and lives on Plaza avenue, being employed at present by the Waterbury Manufacturing com pany.

day a week ago this city should
have been collecting fines from
the company.
The ordinance makes every
trip of every car a separate Sf-
Tense, and the fine may be as high
as 500 for each trip.
On the Mckinley park line they
run six little cars from $50 to
4:30 in the afternoon. That is
eleven hours. ach car makes two
trips. That would be at 800 a
pop fines amounting to $4,000.
At 4:30 they they put on 10 cars
until 1880, that would make &c.
600 more in fines, and from 1880
to midnight there would be IS, 400
more, making $4,000 in fines for
one day on the Mckinley line.
But Old Town, has the same
kind of cars, and about the same
number, SO that would double the
fines, and Jefferson avenue could
be thrown in for good measure.
If the company wants to settle
for the last week for $4,000 a
day the city will let them off at
that and say nothing about JEFF
ferson avenue until next week,
unless there is objection. az May

He is always there, smiling in

be he does not want them to en-
brace that ordinance and collect
that $4,000 a day.
And maybe this will make a
pretty good club for the commits

The ordinance is there, the
