Championship of District
Rests Upon Verdict of
the Committee.
SUBURBAN LEAGUE
DISPUTE is FIRST
Protest of Willard Over CONNER
cial Circuit Pennant a New
Issue.

Two decisions, on which will depend
the championship of two leagues, will
be handed down at the meeting of the
board of arbitration at the board room
OF the American Security and Trust
Company this afternoon at 2 o'clock.
The matter now before the board In
relation to the pennant winner in the
Suburban circuit and the question of
"What Is q Lacquer will be decided
The league has now furnished the
board with a certified copy of its con-
stitution.
Silver Spring Dispute.
II will be remembered that at the
last meeting of the board, Silver Spring
had its dispute reopened, and petitioned
that the league schedule of two games
between the leaders be completed. The
representative of the Petworth club
claimed that as there was a clause in
ing for at least four teams, there was
no league at present. The Silver
Spring adherents claimed there was no
such clause, and the case will be de-
tuition as added evidence in the case.
Protest From Willard.
New business will be the protest OF
Manager Myers, of Willard, against
the action of President Graf of award
ing the Commercial League pennant TO
Andrews, Myers claiming that Willard,
by winning the majority of its games,
can win the pennant in that league,
President Crafts action was sustained
by the board of managers of the
league Manager Myers further claims
that the board Of arbitration ordered
the Willard Walford game of May a.
played over, and that this action Of the
league is in direct opposition to the
edict of the board. President Graf
claims he has perfect grounds for his
action, and will be on hand to explain
it to the board today.
Another dispute to be settled is the
protest of Manager Shoemaker, of Com
nerca and Labor, of the game in which
his team was defeated by Agriculture
last week on the grounds that Ag11cul-
ture played an ineligible man on sec
ond base for five innings under the
name of Donnelly. Shoemaker stated
that he would appear before the board
this afternoon TO air his case.

a hand.

chief. ii is supposed, became alarmed
when he got a bunch of American pa
pers at the English training quarters
and learned that Gotch is attempting to
corner the market on American wrest-
lers at his camp
Schnonlein's telegram to Curley says
that he will arrive in Chicago August
20 to aid in preparing Hack for the
Labor Day bout with Gotch.
Americas" is in the contracting busi-
ness with his father in the Monumental
City, and is rushed with work, but he
wired:
Am always ready to wrestle and
help along a good fellow. I'll clear up
my business affairs so as to join Hack
and Roller in Chicago and work my
best to give the lion the benefit Of all
I know about catch-as-catch-can
wrestling"
