DENIES CHARGES OF COLLEGE MEN
 BEING CROOKED


 The old. fighting spirit, developed no doubt on the gridfson, still burns f1erce1y iny the bosom of Prof. B. w. Bacon, who played football for six years on YaIe's teams, being on his freshman team in 1877.
 The professor, who played under Walter Camp, severely criticises Prof Stewart of Idaho, formerly of Coium . bfae and Cornell, who in an article in the Atlantic Monthly declares system atic cheating to be rampant and un- rebuked among college players and coaches. After denying in toto all Stewards charges Prof Bacon says:
 Facts such as the refusal of Yale's baseball captain last season to accept the championship of a series through the accidental Interruption of a game, a refusal last fall to retaHate against dirty football when under great prov ocation retaliation was suggested, re- peated instances of quiet dropping of coaches on neral grounds in the face of great expostulation from outsiders unaware of the real reasons = facts such as these known inv the college world have some weight as well as the sweeping indictments of press critics. ''
 They most certainly do have weight, professor But neither Prof. Stew art nor A. B. Stearns of Phillips Acad- eny, who wrote the offending articles, are press critics, we should like to point out. srs.s5c s.

Medical Specialists In EnaIand.

What makes a doctor 8 specialist? Can any physician or surgeon with money. behind him take 8 house in Harley street or neighborhood and practice as specialist? He can do so, but it by no means follows that he will be recognized as specialist by the profession.
 To win the professional status of specialist a man must hold or have held a .prefessorshfp. at a4 medical school or an appointment at a hospf- tai in connection with the disease OF group ofsdiseases in which he professes to specialize.
 Further, he must conform to certain rules of professional conduct. He must not take. a less fee than l guinea-2 guineas is the rule in sLon- don, and some charge 8 or even more-for Ia consultation, save in ex- traordinary circumstances. He must not see new patient except on the introduction Of the patient's own medl- cal man. If called to case the pa tient's medical man must be present OF. the specialist will decline to see the sufferer.-London Tatler-

NEWARK CLUB TO
 INVADE BROOKL YN
Organized Ball Decides Upon i Plan to Block Federal es League

President Edward Barrow of the International League said, yesterday that many plans are on foot to block the Federal League team in Brook lyn. One of them is that his associa- ton put a team there. Barrow de- clared this scheme was still up in the air and that nothing definite had been done about it.
 The plan that President Barrow and President Ebbets are now con- templating Is to switch the Newark club to Brooklyn and the Jersey City club to Newark This will be done so as not to leave Newark fans with out a team. The Indians have been a paying proposition. More than $40,- 900 was made last year by the New arks.
 President Ebbets and Thomas Fso- gartys owner of the Jersey City Club, have agreed to the switch, but it will take a three-quarters vote of the club owners of the International League before the deal can be accom- p1ished.
 If these plans are eonsummated-th -the players on both the .Skeeters and the Indians will be uoo1ed and half of them will become mem bers of the team that will play in Newark and the remainder will play. in Brooklyn

SONS OF GREAT
 FIGHTERS SELDOM '
 SUCCEED IN RING

Bob FTtzsimznons is not only obses- sed with the idea that he can come back but he also thinks his son and heir Is going to be as great fighter as he was himself. Several of the old time warriors have entertained a similar notion in regard to their off spring, but none have had thsir hopes entirely fulfi1led.s<
 Prof. Mike Donovan has a. son who is endeavoring to emulate his fathers record, but Young Mike seems an chored to the second division. Young Donovan has fine physique and the benefit of the best coaching, but all to no purpose.
 In all probability Young F'itzsin- mons will prove equally disappoint ing if F'itz carries out his threat to send him after the championship. The youngster may have inherited his fathers fighting instinct and may have acquired much Of the 1atter's skill, but he will need more than that.
 It was the years of hard work at the anvil that made a, fighter out of Fitzsimmons and developed that won derfu1 punch No gymnasium ath- Iete need ever expect to acquire 2 wallop that will equal the FItzsim-. mons jolt. It takes the toughening process of hard physical day after day labor to makegafgeal fighting man of the Fitzsimmons type.

JOHNSON BALKED
 BIG LEAGUE PLAN
Refused to Let Weeghman of .Federals Put Toledo Fran z
 chise in Chicago. s

It was learned yesterday that the decision of the Federal League to in wade Brooklyn was decided upon last week after the National Commission refused to allow the American As sociation to present, to Charles Geegh- man of Chicago a franchise of that league as a peace gift.
 It is understood that President Thomas Burlington came with full sa5u- thority from the American Association to give Weeghman a. club tosbe locat- ed in Chicago. Chivfngton said that his organization was sa anxious to 1o- cate in the Windy City that the Chi cago Federal league men could have it free of charge just to coax him away from the opposition.
 If this plan of z Chivington and Weeghman's s had gone through, the Federal League would have gone out of business. Ban Johnson was the man who blocked the deal. When the matter was first brought before the American League last Tuesday the matter was. killed at Johnsons sug- gestion. Later, in the NatiollaI Com mission, J ohnson also ruled against it.
 Both major leagues, it was under stood, with the exception of Charles w. Murphy, were. willing to allow Weeghman to come into Chicago with an American Association club, but they insisted that he should buy it at al big price. They refused to buy off the Federal opposition with gifts Johnson declared that this would be an admission of weakness on the part Toledo clubs were willing to be trans
