Velodrome set.
Sundays Card.
Match races between Rutt and
Clark and Moretti and GrendA with
a ten-mile scratch race called the
'Cossacks Stakes" will feature the
bill on Sunday at the Velodrome. The
Rutt-Clark match is sure to attract
much attention, for in their last en-
counter the result was FOR from salts
factory. Clark was the winner, but
he gave the "Weltmeister such a
rough passage his victory was far
from a creditable one. The match
Sunday is bound to be bitter one.
Hard Proposition for Moretti.
Moretti will tackle harder propo-
sition Sunday. when he faces Grenda,
for the big man from Tasmania Is
riding in the best form he has shown
in America. and is sprinting very
fast. If Moretti tries to race him
from behind he may find that he has
made mistake. 1t was just about
all Champion Kramer could do to
pass Grenda down the homestretch in
a flve-mile open two weeks ago,
after Grenda had sprinted for two
full laps with Kramer hanging on to
his rear wheel Moretti is said to
possess a wonderful jump. and as
Grenda is slow in getting up speed,
the Italian can probably take the
lead, providing he does not walt too
long. This looks like a corking good
match, with the odds even.
stiff Test for Stars.
The "Cossacks Stakes" will take the
steam out of all of the stars, for it
will be one long series of spirits from
the first gun to the final lap. There
are. forty prizes at 50 each for lap
winners, and prize of $40 to the
winner of every mile. Then there are
two special prizes for the riders who
set the most pace, which will keep
the bunch moving all the way. In
this event every professional racer
at the Velodrome will compete.
Other Races.
Another good open race on the card
for Sunday is the half-mile handi-
cap, professional, which will also
bring together the stars. The anna

amateur, novice and

LEAGUE OPPOSES
CIRCUIT CHANGES
International Magnates Object
to Transfer of Jersey City
and Baltimore.

There will be no change In the
baseball circuit of the International
League this season, and the clubs
will play out their regular schedule
ON the dates and in the cities as ar
ranged last spring. This was the an
nouncement made at the adjournment
Of special meeting of the organiza-
ton, which was in session shortly
after noon until a late hour last night
at New York, yesterday.
President Barrow presided at the
meeting, which was attended by rep
resentatives OF all the clubs. The
proposition to transfer the franchise
Of the Baltimore clup to Richmond,
Va, was what caused the gathering
of club owners. President Dunn, of
the Baltimore club, had been offered
$62, 500 by a syndicate formed in Rich
mond for the transfer, Dunn to re-
tain fifty-one shares of the clubs as
sets and to manage the club. The
syndicate proposed to have the Bal
timore team play the two games in
Richmond which were scheduled TO
be played in Baltimore next Saturday.
A tentative agreement had been made
TO purchase the Richmond franchise
from the Virginia League for $4,000,
and have 1t transferred to some other
place.
When Dunn put this matter before
the meeting it was said by a reliable
authority that the owners of the Jer-
sey City club also were anxious TO
place their franchise at the disposal
of the Richmond people. and there
was a lengthy discussion as to how
these two clubs, both of which are
said to be losing money, could be
placated
Neither President Barrow nor any
of those present at the meeting would
tell whether any arrangements had
been made to give financial assist
ance to either or both clubs. Presi-
dent Barrow, who had first said that
they were simply holding a meeting
of the board of directors, stated that
when the owners had voted unani-
mously to keep the league intact they
adjourned until noon today.
The Richmond promoters have
abandoned their efforts to bring any
International League team to the
Virginia city. according to the latest
advices. In raising funds the hackers
of the scheme found it much harder
than was expected. The Virginia
League demanded $4,000 for trans
ferring the franchise to Lynchburg,
while the promoters thought that
$4,000 was sufficient.

May Get Financial Aid.

At today's meeting something Will
be done, it is believed, to give financial
assistance to the Jersey City and
Baltimore Clubs. The National Com
mission has a war fund of $200, 900, il
is said, which is the result of the ten
per cent. tax levied on the world s
series each season. The major league
clubs have also been taxed an extra
ten per cent. on the gross daily re-
ceipts and this taxation should pour
500, 900 or more into the Golfers OF
the commission before the season
ends. Out of this sum something
should be done to help the Interna-
tional League and the Barrow
Iseaguers are all smiles. It Is believed
that their pleas will be answered
soon.
The Jersey City Club was repre-
sented yesterday by Bill Devery,
whose money is sunk in the Skeeters.

Kramer Fast Climbing

Champion Frank Kramer is near

Kramer is still thirty five points be-

Ter, who is second, has an advantage
of eight points over the champion.
By winning both RACES at New

Two Passes End in one Run.

Newarkss one run yesterday was
the result of pair of passes to Holm
quist and Getz. mixed up with a bad
throw which Bailey made to get
Holmquist off second. JEFF moved to
third and scored when Heckinger flied
TO Platte. Getz also advanced on the
play and was in a position to steal
home, which he did perfectly few
seconds later, only to have Umpire
DAILY call Lee out on strikes. The
one marker that Providence gained
was homeric swat from the cudgel
of cratic Bill Bailey. Bill bumped
one for the circuit, the ball bounding
over the low fence in right field in the
third round. Both teams had other
chances to score, but the tally was
tied when rain stopped the contest in
the fourth inning.

Il don't see why they are counting
us out of the perlnant race" says HI
Myers 1T still believe the Tigers are
a cne-two-three proposition, and as
soon as our cripples get into the game
we'll start winning games by the
wholesale.
Man for man, can't zee where
any team in the league has whole
dot on us. There has not been day
in the past six weeks that at least
three of Harry Smiths best players
were out of the game, and then, too,
we have had all the worst of the
breaks"
This is the old college spirit" as
the players call it. The Providence
team has the same sort OF 'never-s say
die" grit, and that's why they are
playing such good ball.
One of the hardest things Manager
Smith has had to contend with this
season is how to work his pitchers.
Some twirlers need more work tbs,i
others. With eight and nine men on
the bench ready to fling, it was impos-
sible to give them all regular work,
and so they found ii hard to keep in
working order. NOW that Enzmann,
Britton and Kent are gone the other
fellows will get chance to show their
speed.
Bill Donovan says Newark is a good
town compared with some burgs when
it comes to grandstand managers.
Even up in Rochester the fans think
they know more about the game than
John Camel, and are always having
what the athletes call the second
guess"
Leo Callahan got a severe drench-
ing yesterday afternoon when Bert
Tooley playfully spilled glass of
cold water down Leo's back. Then,
to add to the igonominy, another
Tiger player despatched Leo's nice
uniform full of mud.
Jack Onslow, the Providence catch
er, has the largest feet in the league.
according to Umpire DAILY.
The Onslow brothers are of Scotch
Irish descent. Both are clever ball

Promised a great Game.

From the way the contest started
yesterday an interesting battle was
on the docket. Old Wyatt Lee was
on the mound for the Tigers against
Bill Bailey. The latter is about the
most erratic piece of pitching ma
chinery turned out since the days Of
Tacks Neuer. He was pitching with
his usual on and off form. At times
he flashed like a meteor, tanning two
Tigers in a row. Then again he
would grow lethargic and issue
couple of passes. The Tigers were
trying to parade two or three times.
but Bill was lucky enough to tighten
up in the pinches-
