With nine heats to the Test the fans
will get a good run for their money
Sunday. Each of the nine stars in
the race will do battle three times.
With three of the favorites in the
ninth heat, that heat win be corker,
for 1t may decide the result. The Test
is not the only big race on the bill for
Sunday Joe Fogler and Oscar Egg
will clash in a ten-mile tandem-paced
race, and Kramer will try to estab-
fish a new worlds record for a quar-
ter of a mile. The present record is
% 40 seconds, and was made in 1906
at Salt Lake by Iyer Lawson. For
six years the stars have tried to bet
ter that mark at the Lake without
success. No rider ever tried it here
in the East, believing that it could
not possibly be broken except at Salt
Lake. where the rarlfied air is in ia
vor of fast speed. But Kramer thinks
he can lower those figures at the
Velodrome, and he is going to have
a try. Not long ago Kramer rode
under the mark in training, but he
was pulled a part of the distance by
Cavanagh, which, Of course, is not ac-
cording to Hoyle in record trials.
Sunday the champion will be pulled
up to the mark, but he will go the
quarter alone.

INTERNATIONAL IS
DEAD--G|LMORE
President of Outlaws Predicts
That Barrow Circuit Must
Explode.

| That there will be no International
League next year is the point-blank
kstatement issued by President James

before he departed for the West, after
a conference in New York. The Feds
have not been mapping In spite of the
fact that the National Leagues stir
ring climax has drawn lot of in
terest away from the outlaws and has
the attention of the fans riveted be-
| tween Boston and New York scores.
The Feds have their eyes wide open
and they realize, it is asserted by the
| head of the organization, that the
international was hit hardest Of all
] when their new league was organized
| on a broad basis.
That the Federal League has ma or
| league backing even II II lacks major
league calibre in its playing standard
! is the proud claim of the Fed head.
! He openly points out that the Inter-
! national League finances are in such
a state that "A continuation of war
| means ruin, and az war it will surely
| be to the knife and until the knife
is driven to the hilt-the International
| is on its last legs and ready to
breathe its dying gasp.
The failure of the National Com

it's death throes in the early season
proved the greed of the big fellows
and their disregard for the little fish.
Gilmore laughed at stories of the
| merging of the two leagues-the Fed
eral and International He regards
his league as already faster and bet
ter equipped than the international
for u siege. The International has
crumpled, according to Gilmore, after
only few slsirmishes and is sure to
go under.

Tiger players who returned yester-
day from their long and disastrous
trip have some woeful tales. Nothing
broke right Tor the Bengals accord
inc to the players The failure Of the
team to hit started all of the trouble.
The flelders got booting the ball and
then pitchers went bad.
Bob Fisher had the honor of pasting
out home run with the bases filled
at Buffalo yesterday Toronto was
badly beaten. o1
Harry Smith had no secretary OF
business manager and had to act as
manager and make all arrangements
for trains and hotels, they say, adding
this worry to his other troubles
Word comes from Wilmington that
today's game there had been post
poned to make a double-header to-
morrow.
Tiger players deny the yarns that
they are dissatisfied because they
have not been paid regularly. Most
of the boys have a little money set
aside and figure out that they are
saving money by getting lump sum
at the end of the season." said one
of the Newark men,
One thing that stands out prom
inently in the tale of all of those who
survived the trip is the herOism of
Captain Edward ID. Zimmerman.

SLIGHT DIFFERENCE
IN SPEED Of STARS
Success of Spears Shows How
Evenly Balanced Are Lead
ing Cyclists.
ONLY NATTER OF POSITION

The victory of Bob Spears in the
Worlds Derby Revenge Wednesday
night at the Velodrome shows what
a slight difference three is in the
speed of the various star riders per-
forming here this season and how
evenly balanced is the entire field of
ten big leaguers. Champion Kramer
won the Derby, defeating Aft Gren-
da and liver Lawson in his semi-hnal
and ALI Goullet and Cesar Moretti in
the grand final. Then, ten days later,
along came Moretti, and he defeats
Kramer and Goullet in the heat of
the Revenge, and Spears ticks Mo
retti in the final-Spears, the longest
shot in the semi-finals of the cham
pionship. Never before in local rae
ing history has there been a field of
riders of such numbers with any one
of them possible winner.

For several seasons it was all Kra-
mer and Jackie Clark, and they came
together in every final at the Velo-
drome, but now both are shut out
Clark often and Kramer occasionally.
The field is so evenly balanced posi-
ton counts for a great deal, in fact,
three-fourths of the stars can win If
placed right at sprlnting time. 1t is
SO much a matter of position now
that is the reason there is so much
rough riding. Feeling that they will
almost certainly be beaten if not in
certain positions at sprinting time
causes the riders to go to extremes IN
jockeying for position and causes the
rough work. When Kramer and
Clark were the only stars here they
could ride around the entire field in

there was no rough riding for it was
