1 1 Tr-u once- The, biggest surprise of many seasons in football circles was sprung last light, following a meeting of the representatives of the Ottawa and Ottawa University Football team. It is none other than an authoritive announcement to the effect that the two local clubs have amalgamated. Arrangements for the amalgamation have been going on for some time, but it was not until last night that they were finally completed. Consequently there will not be a new rugby union ir. the East this fall; there will be no player war in the Capital between the Ottawa and Ottawa College teams; Ottawa Col lege will not play in the Ontario Rug by Football Union and the anticipated excitement over the launching of a new series will not materialize.

Instead, fhe Ottawa football solons have finally put their heads together and will combine their efforts in a grand attempt to win the Dominion Football championship. The annual meeting of ine intcrprovincial Amateur Football Union takes place at Hamilton this afternoon and af thia Phillips, the Ottawa delegate will make the formal announcement of amalgamation, which needless to say will likely take the opposing: clubs by storm. It will be remembered that the Ot LABOR DAY SPORTS AT IE PARK Fine Program Arranged to Precede Ball Game Between Ottawa and Peterboro.

Only bona fide amateurs, however, will be eligible to compete, which will bar the baseball stars, some of whom had hoped to get a chance to show their skill against the local boys. Cups have been donated bv the following well-known friends of organized labor: Controller Hln-chev. Controller Nelson, Controller Parent Controller Kent. Henry J.

Birks and Sons. J. Wllmot and Sam Bllskv. There will he a fine array of prizes, and it is likely that a great cluster of local athletes will be on hand. Mr.

All the local clubs are well represented, and the city tourney promises to be a great success. yueens-College game at Varsity uvai. Recently it was reported that they were organizing a new league; that they would Join the Ontario Rugby Union and that they would play exhibition matches only. The new league.

however, was not deemed feasible and after a number of conferences between President Cameron of the Ottawas and Father Stanton amalgamation was de cided upon. Rev. Father Stanton has consented to coach the team, wnicn will be known as the Ottawa City-University football team. They' will play under a combination of colors of garnet and grey and red, white and black and their headquarters will be at Lansdowne Park. All of last year's Ottawa players will be available, while from the ranks of the University club they will draw sucn famnua Intercollegiate stars as Phil Cornellier, Jim Kennedy.

Silver Quilty. Hert Gilligan. Ed. Nagle. Mike ft-iiuan, Hillv MeArr others.

These, with splendid lot of players which the Ottawas had last year will form the nucleus of the greatest football aggregation that the Capital has ever had. Several of the veterans will re turn and the young blood will oi course receive first call. The decision to Join forces was unanimous. It looks like the biggest stroke of rugby business ever pulled off and every football follower in the Capital will undoubtedly rejoice. The "Big Four" schedule will be drawn up today.

DECIDING LACROSSE BATTLE HERE TODAY Big Crowd Expected to Flock to Lansdowne Park. Everything is now in readiness for the big lacrosse battle between Almonte and Ottawa this afternoon at Lansdowne Tark. Today's contest will be the second and last game of1 the home and home series and the result will decide which team will meet Brampton for the championship of the O. A. L.

A. Almonte won the first game by the score of goals to 1, so in order to win out on the round 1he Ottawas will have to overcome a sex en goal. lead. The field has been measured out to the regulation size and nags have been placed at both ends so when the ball goes outside of these marks it will be faced off and not like in the other contests when the players were permitted to run right to the canal if they chose to. Today is celebrated as a Civic Holiday in Almonte and with nearly ail the factories and offices closed a record crowd will accompany the team to Ot tawa.

The visiting club claim they will bring down at least six hundred rooters who will be led by the Almonte brass band. As the Connaught Jockey- Club races is the only counter attrac tion for today every lover of lacrosse will likely turn out and root for the Ottawas. Should Ottawa lose this will likely be the last lacrosse match played here this season, but if on the other hand they come out on the right side there will he a Brampton-Ottawa game which will be played In the course of two weeks. Scereatry J. Larkin of the local team received a telegram from the league President.

Mr. F. Sinking last night which stated that he had appointed Frank Doyle to handle the game. Both clubs are desirous of having a strict offcial and w-ith a man like Doyle in charge the contest will likely be free from any rough work. Play will start at 3:30 and the match will be played In four periods of twenty minutes each.

The ticket office will be opened at 2:30. Scores from the Ottawa-London games, deciding the Canadian Baseball League championship, will be posted on the Citizen Score Hoard. This will lie another great attraction as the interest of ail baseball followers is at a white heat. Every inning will be bulletined. FDR GREENWICH CUP Royal Ottawa Golf Club Will Play Today.

Montreal Meet is Next. Following the announcement that James Butler, the millionaire New York grocer and owner of the Kmpire City race track, had purchaBed the controlling interests in the Maryland tHte Fair and Pacing Association at Laurel from H. D. (Curly) Brown and his confreres, comes word that Matt J. Winn, the charge d'affaires at Churchill Downs, who represents the Butler Interests at Jaurez, Mexico, has assumed the managerial reins.

Mr. Winn has made the announcement to horsemen who are participating at the Fall meeting at Connaught Park that all entrance money and starting fees to the stakes to be run at that meeting will go to the winner instead of the association as was formerlv the rule. The Laurel Stakes are advertised to close Sept. 1st, and are receiving liberal entries from the horsemen racing on the Canadian circuit. J.

.7 onH XT Beal Will be Shinned to Havre He at the close of the current meeting. An effort' will be made to have JockeV M. Nathan r.Rtni-.H tr crnrtH standing at the next meeting of the stewards of the Canadian Racing Association. In the event of the move being successful, the lad will accompany the o. Joplin stable to Kentucky.

Nathan was considered on, of the moot promising lightweights in the east last spring, and Oeorge Odom. who developed the younster. turned down several flattering offers for his services this spring. However, at the close of the spring meeting at Plmllco, Odom turned the hoy over to William Garth for the summer months. It was at the spring meeting of the Connaught Park Jockey Club that Nathan incurred the displeasure of the stewards for what appeared to have been a lethargic effort on Joe Coopers JessuP Burn.

Another to graduate from the maiden owners was W. A Burttschell when he scored his first victory on the circuit this season, and Incidentally his first since the spring meeting at Norfolk, when Spellbound won the fifth race, a dash of a mile for selling platers. Cam Bradley joined the lavers operating at Connaught Park yesterday. The six consecutive choices that finished in front brought Jov to the form players and woe to the layers. It was not until the last race that the bookies got any relief, and this was onlv slight, as Garneau was liberally plaved bv Mr.

Scully and the stable connections. Ladies day was a huge success. The attendance of so many of the fair sex lent an additional touch of magnetism to the magnificent' scene. The" Forty-Third Brass Band rendered music, and the afternoon was one of the most successful to date. It may have been the presence of so many ladies which spurred those six favorites on to such deeds of valor.

The Blue Bonnet meet swings Into operation one week from todav. The bookmakers at Connaught Park will not go to Toronto, as the Pari-mutuels are in vogue at Woodbine. Thev will all flock to Montreal, from whence they will hit the trail for Havre de Grace, Maryland. According to one horseman, who has followed the game for years, the surest tickets are Meal and Railroad. mm lose jigh Phillies Took Another From National Champions.

In the fourth Dolan singled, but two were out, and when Reidy pulled the old trick of running back to recover the ball Dolan raced Into Dunlops iiaiitia, waiuiis wuii me nan thrown In on a bound by Hcldy. In the sixth, Kane started the inning after successfully recovering without London scoring off him. He crashed a hall fur three bases to deep center field. Bullock, next up. grounded out to Dunlop.

In the eighth, however. the chances of Ottawa tlelng up the score were brilliant, as Kane duplicated his previous trip to the plate by slamming the ball Into deep center field for another throe-base hit. It was here that Shaughnessy started to use some strategy by sending Renfer to bat in place of Bullock, but all the Detroit-owned ball player could do was to draw a base on balls. Powers had been put out in the opening when he batted in place or fcmykal. crowder struck out, and Shaughnessy flew nut to Stewart, leaving Kane and Kenfer stranded at third and first.

When this was accomplished, the fans went wild with screams and hooting was kept up until the final man was put out. In the ninth Rogers started out by doing what he did three previous time, that being to ground out. Dolan lifted one over the infield next, but remained at first base, as Robertson struck out. and Lage went out at first to Bierbauer on a hard hit grounder. The feature of the game was the pitching of Heck and Kane, while the hitting of Bierbauer, Stewart and Kane was also good.

The teams play a double header tomorrow, and if the Blokes get both games they will have a chance. An even break would give the championship to the Ottawas. Te-cumseh I'ark will not be big enough to hold the crowd. Rogers and Renter will pitch for Ottawa, while Stelger and Penes will occupy the box for London. Score: OTTAWA.

London's victory over the Ottawas yesterday gave the Deneau Indians the sain or one full game on the Senators, who are now only three and a half to the good. The Ottawas are now 34 points ahead.

He claimed that Hoferee Freeman was favoring Allen, and that he could not pet Justice. Consequently, ho left the riny, and Allen was declared the winner. The fiKht while It lasted was a cyclonic affair. Allen had the better of the opening" rounds, and on one occasion he drove Daley to his knees, but Daley stood the punishment gamely, and after the third scene the former lightweight champion of Canada, appeared to tire, and Daley became the aggressor.

Aug. 29. Messrs. Frank Kubat and Art Lase composed the Ot-tawa battery which worked against London today at Twcumseh Park, and it whs pff these two senntorial stars that London grabbed the first frame of the crucial series upon which depends the 1ftl3 championship. The game was onu of the closest sen at Tet-uinst'h Park this season, and every inch of it a real championship battle.

The weather was ideal, a cool hreez swejit i the field, and Hobby lli-ck was in fine fettle, holding he prospective champions to six scattered hits, although he was banged ratlier hard by one Tom Kane, who assayed to pitch after Kubat had been pounded out of the box in the fifth inning by the mighty heavy end of tho London Te-t'u inserts.

"Hero" Kobertson had an opportunity to burst into the limelight in the ninth inning, with Dolan on first, but he crossed up his former good record by striking out. The whole victory savors much of Heckism, as he held the towering champions well in hand except Relief Pitcher Kituo, who banged balls for two triples in two tries to the plate, and had he been the pitcher chosen at the outbreak of the battle.

Ottawa might have cinched the pennant. Deneau's clout era had a very fair day at bat. while Kubat stayed in the box, for no less than three runs were caught at the plate, by throws for the Ottawa defence, which would have meant sure scores had not the throws been perfect. -London earned one score on clean hitting, and the winning run was scored on an attempted squeeze play, which went wrong, as Kane heaved widely to Dunlop, but Matteson on third scored when Lage threw badly To Bullock, the ball rolling to the outfield. Ottawa's only run came in the sixth when Kane opened with a triple and scored when t'rowder grounded past Dunlop, the ball bounding over his just as he stooped to pick it up.

With two out in the opening inning. Bierbauer and Ptewart singled, but I'm lop's liner to Robertson caught Bierbauer at the plate by a great throw to Lage. In the third inning the same trio wielded the willow In duplicate fashion, but this time a run was scored. With two out arain Bierbauer singled, stole second and scored wh-n Stewart nave Shaughnesay a chase in the outfield, but relay to Smykal held Stewart at first. London 1 os a ii cha ce score In the fourth when Smith walked with on man out, and went to second when Kubat threw wide to Polan.

Kubat was found by He-fk for a line drive to Rogers, which allowed rimith try to scoie, but Smith was nipped off at the plate by a perfect throw from the Ottawa nutfjeldor. In the fifth inning London ran across the winning run, opening the affair by singling to center field on a bound by Bierbauer, which almost counted as a hit as the ploy at first was very close. Bullock having to run in near the plate. Stewart singled. Matteson only going to third, and it was while Dunlop was at bat that Kane tried to out-guess him on a squeeze play.

He succeeded, but Lage's anxiety to get Matteson going back to third, when Dunlop missed the pitch-out, was costly. He threw the ball too far out for Bullock to reach, and Matteson romped in. Stewart going to third. Dunlop grounded out, and with two men nut a double steal was tried by Neale, who hJid walked previously with Stewart, but a throw to Smykal by Lave and a return caught Stewart by a few inches. The ex'itement was intense all through the game, but none of the back and forth talk between the players was held.

Tn the opening Inning, with Bullock out. Crowder knocked a ball over second base, which Dunlop speared hut too late to catch him at first. He threw the ball anyway, and it went high over Bierbauer'p head. With Shaughnessy and Rogers to be REMARKABLE CLOSE TO IT MAY Two Matches Here Monday; All Eyes Now on London.
