13 ir LONGBOAT IN CAB SEEING THE SIGHTS SHROBB, ENGLISH CRACK, SIGHS TO MEET LONGBOAT HAL CHASE READY TO RETURN TO FOLD ft jl rr raw fcr NEW YORK. Dec. Alfred Shrubb, the crack English professional distance runner, signed articles today to meet Tom Longboat, the recent conqueror Of Dorando, in a Marathon race, 26 miles and 385 yards, in the Madison Square Garden on January 8 or 9, the date to be finally selected in a few Shrubb came over from Boston on Thursday night and had a confab with Managers Powers and Pollok today at the Hotel Batholdi. who left for Canada with his manager, Tom Flanagan, on Wednesday, authorized Powers and Pollok to make a match with Shrubb, but the latter at first was inclined to back up unless the Indian would consent to a series of other races at five, ten and fifteen miles. But after a long argument Shrubb flnally agreed to terms and then took a train for Boston, where he will begin training at once.

First Baseman Who Deserted New York Americans for Outlaw Ltajoe is Reconciled. Takes Firewater and Has a Howling Good Time Celebrating Victory Over Dorando. 3h WILL PROBABLY BE FINED "HARD TRAINING IS FATAL' TUB CGHAmOH SATURDAY DECEMBER 19, i i jM SPORTS OF A ILL SORTS I i. I fer AND COMPANY NEW YORK, Dec. 18.

Tom Long boat, the wonderful Indian runner who so easily, beat Dorando at the Garden Tuesday night, turned into the feathers early today after doing a twenty four hour Marathon around New York in a taxicab. The Indian, who even then said he wasn't tired, had not seen a bed since Monday night. Mean while, he. has enjoyea a HDerai supply of firewater, wealthy fizz and, even all, sihowed no ill effects of It. He was simply celebrating along with several Canadians.

His feet are still sore and blistered but don't seem to trouble him. To the 1 1 Ir UlluJIO Kill 111 lluiia who advised him to get a rest and take care of himself, the Indian said: "Ugh, I never get tired. I feel fine all th? time. I can do without sleep." The Indian took to the taxicab habit as easily as he takes to Marahton running, and with' Lou Marsh to steer him around Longboat enjoyed himself visiting the theaters and taking In other sights of interest until the wee sma hours. The Indian made the remarkable statement that he wasn't In condition: for the race.

"I won the race simply because Dorando made me. He ran slow, and that was Just what I wanted," and then the Indian laughed and grunted. "If the Italian had run a very fast fifteen miles at the start I might have dropped the same as he did." continued the Indian. "I had only ten days' preparation, and that isn't enough. I suffered up to a day or so before the race from skin eruptions from the effects of a blood tonic and even five days ago I had to take a morphine mixture to relieve pains in the stomach.

"I had to use my head to beat Dorando. I had to worry him. I think I did this by passing him every once in a while, and then stepping aside to let mm make trie pace, i carriea mm along fast once or and that helped to take the heart out of him." In view of these statements and the slight attention he received during the actual running of the race, the Indian's performance must be put down as marvelous. Right here, Lou Marsh, who handled the Indian at the Garden, and has looked out for him lh all his important races, remarked that all Tom got during the race with Dorando was a quarter of an orange, two sips of lukewarm water and about tflra ounces of champagne during the test mile." 1 "Dorando was too well attended," says Marsh. "I couldn't help snickering when I saw his lhandlers squirting the selzer over him." Longboat needed little according to Marsh, but when he got the.

thimbleful of wine it seemed to brace him 4ip. He said afterwards: "Yes, I was almost falling asleep in the twenty fourth mile because the pace was so' slow. That wine woke me up and made me run again." Longboat says he will stay in New York for a day or so, and then go hack home. "I will race anybody that challenges me," he says. Incidentally, Longboat wants to be known as a Canadian, and he wants Canada to get the credit for his victory, because Canada is the home of great runners.

He says there are at least ten Canucks who can beat Dorando. The Indian gives a lot of credit for his victory to his manager, Tom Flan? agan, who has been almost a father to him; to Lou Marsh, who attends him In his races, and to John J. Daly, of the Irish American 'A. who gave him many valuable points. There Is nothing in the story that the Canadians who came down to see him race cleaned up a bundle of money in bets.

As a matter of fact, few of them bet on Tilm, believing that he wasn't quite right. KANSAS CITY GETS "SPIKE" SHANNON PITTSBURG. Dec. 18. The management of the Pittsburg baseball club has begun the weeding out process.

The first man to be released is "Spike" Shannon. A deal has been closed by which Shannon is sold to the Kansas City club of the American association. Shannon was secured by Pittsburg from "the York Giants late last season for $1,500. MICHIGAN'S TROl Bl.ES. Football Schedule for 1M May be All Big: Game.

CHICAGO, Dec. 18. Owing to the Incessant demands of the Michigan alumni that the Wolverines reenter the conference, it is believed that both Chicago Wisconsin will be found on the 1909 football schedule of the Maize' and Blue. Michigan's arrogant attitud in breaking off from her old time rivals In a hope of drowning the Eastern teams has been crowned with anything but success, and the alumni are disgnested with the athletic situation. In vogue at Ann Arbor and declare that to reenter the conference Is the only salvation.

It is said that ne gotalions are under way for dates with Chicago and Wisconsin, and that these teams will undoubtedly face the 'Wolverines next autumn, Michigan is allowed but seven games on her schedule, and in view of the fact, that Pennsylvania and) Syracue are fixtues for next year, it will undoubtedly give the Wolverines the ha rS'st season that thej' have ever attempted, should the dnt'es with the Mldwayltles and Badgecs be arranged.

Editor Sporting Life: Will you kindly give me a few lines of your valuable space? I wish to call the attention of the large army of lovers of the national game, and especially the very many colored players in the country, to the condition of John F. Fowler, who is lying ill at the home of his sister at Frankfort, N. Y. Fowler was one of the best colored ball players who ever wore a uniform. I was go ing to say whoever donned a mitt, but that would be a misnomer, for it is a wellknown fact that "Budd" never used a glove, preferring to take every thing that came his way witrl the bare hands.

He, with Fleet Walker, Frank Grant and George Stovy were the only colored ball, players that ever got into the ranks of the big leagues and they created a sensation in the International league back in the eighties. A couple of decades ago, when I was a news paper reporter in Laconia, N. it was my pleasure to be associated with Fowler, he playing second base and I acting as official scorer and assistant manager of the Laconia Baseball club, and I found him to be one of the "whitest" men I ever knew. At that time the Laconia team was the crack semi professional organization of the old Granite state and numbered among its members, besides Fowler and myself, Silas Jones, George Walker, Tim Maloney, "Stick'' Aldrich, Pat Mc Cann, Jim Baldwin, Charles Fischer, John. Foley, Orman Lougee and Joe Sanborn.

Some of these men were afterward identified with the "big show," but none of them is playing ball today. Aldrlch and Lougee are at the present time solid business men of Laconia. Now Fowler, who has been a member of the best colored teams and a number of white teams, such as the Live Oaks, of Lynn; the Crickets, of Binghamton, and others, having been in harness for over thirty years, and never in all that time connected in any way with outlaw baseball, is in destitute circumstances and I appeal for. a popular subscription benefit in his aid. Any sum of money, no matter how small, will be gratefully received by him.

It is my as early as possible, to arrange a benefit game for him here on one of the local diamonds, and I earnestly ask "the cooperation of the colored players, many of whom live around about New York and Brooklyn. They all knew me as "the newspaper feller," who covered Meyerrose park during the past season for the Brooklyn Eagle and the New York Press, and they an get in touch with me by addressing me ii care of the Brooklyn Daily Eagle. I wish particularly to hear from Sol White, "Pop" Watkins, Clarence Williams, Frank Grant, Harry Buckner, Grant Johnson and Mbnroe, who were all personal friends of tbe old boy. A line from Ren Mulford, the Cincinnati scribe, who knew Fowler well, would be. of inestimable value to this worthy cause.

I hope that all the sporting editors in the country will see fit to print this Thanking you for you, consideration, am, most respectfully yours, F. D. Ellis, ROLLER MARATHON. Baltimore to Hold Skating Race Over Ctty Streets. BALTIMORE, Dec.

18.That the Marathon is rapidly spreading over the country and making people think of almost nothing else but the great classic event that received its boom In the United States after Johnny Hayes' famous victory in England, was still further shown when It was announced yesterday that a Marathon would in all probability be held in this city on New Year's day. UJilike the other races that have been holding the attention' of the public, athletic and otherwise, for the last few months, the Monumental City event will not bring together noted hill and dalers. but will show the kings of the roller skating world in competition for that they hope will rival the long distance crown won by Hayes. This unique event, a roller skating Marathon, Will be held on the pavements of this city, and If the plans of the promoters do not' go astray it is expected that the' opening of the new year will see a large field gliding ovr the asphalt In what promises to he one of the most spectacular athletic events ever witnessed" in the south. Permission to hold the contest hns been obtained from the city authority and from now on every effort will he made to swell the entry list.

Alreadv over fifty skaters hnve signified their intention of and the race is expected to bring together all the leading knights of the wooden wheels who have ever shown a desire for speed and endurance competitions. The course is through the heart of tb city, and two lap are necessary to attain th full Marathon distance. The path is far from being a smooth one, however, and the skaters will have to toll wp several hills that will test their sturdy legs to the utmost. The popularity of the event has sm ead wonderfully and many roller skating enthusiasts who have never competed lh a race are. expected to be on hand at 10 o'clock on the dffc' of the birth of 1909 when th starter will blow his whistle as a signal for the Marathon era to assemble for their loi.j glide.

NEW RULES FOR THE BIG AtTTOROAD RACE Change in Briarcliff Entry Conditions For 1909 To Be International Event The automobile manuaoturers' committee which has been in session several times recently to come to a definite understanding regarding the conditions that will govern the running of the next Briarcliff race, has made announcement regarding these condi tions, chief among them being that the event next spring will not be limited to cars of American make only. The race 'will be of international character, and formal application for he holding of such a race in which foreign machines may enter will be made shortly to the Automobile club of America, which grants tat international races on American soil. The date, other than that the race wil Ibe run in May, and the course over which the cars will speed have yet to be decided upon definitely. Otherwise the most Important feature is the statement relative to bore limitation, a problem which hod been vexing the minds of the committee since they first met. The rules adopted differ slightly from those of the Interna1 ttonal association of recognized automobile clubs, but it was felt that some little variation must be made if a satisfactory field was to be at the starting line on the' day of the race.

Accordingly the maxim bore for four cylinder engines in th Briarcliff race will be 5 1 4 inches, or one eighth of an inch greater than that permitted by the association. Provision will also be made for different bore when the cylinders number other than four. There will be no limit on the stroke. The minimum weight of the Briarcliff entries will be 2.600 pounds, or 616 pounds heavier than the minimum weight limit of the association rules. This weight is exclusive of water, oil and gasolene, which are considered1 under the general head of supplies.

Wheel bases must be at least 110 inches. Comparing the selected bore limitation with that of the machines which competed in the 1908 Briarcliff event, the present one Is half an inch under that permitted last spring. It said thajt by this re "duclion of bore several of the cars which were raced at Savannah will be barred from participation in the 1909 Briarcliff. In the selection of the course the committee will be influenced largely by the inducements offered, for it is felt that if a community Is anx1' have a race it ought to be willing to defray some of the expenses, at the same time promising to keep the course clear of spectators during the progress of the race; A hilly cours'e, that the durability as well as the speed of the competing cars may be tested, is said generally to be favored by the committee. The race will be 350 miles or more in length.

Choice of the raceway will be made only after members of the committee have done some thorough Inspecting. 1 Only three cars of a single mako may compete. One may be entered by the payment of $500, two for $900 and three for $1,200, with a fourth of the sum to be paid before February 1. After that date it will cost $600 to enter a single car. $1,100 for two and $1,500 for three.

No entries will be received after thirty days, previous to the date date of the race. While it is not known yet how many and what cars will be at the starting line the conditions decided upon are in favor of a generous field, and at least a dozen machines should be among the contestants, in view1 of the fact that tre race is to be one of International character. Among those on the automobile manufacturers' committee and the make of car they represent pre C. F. Wyckoff, 'Stearns: C.

TL. II ttn tlx fm nm wupi It is generally believed that while he is in California Ban Johnson will have a talk with Hal Chase. Word has been received here from Chase to the effect that is ready to return tD the New York Americans If his services are wanted. But before he can do business with Manager. Stallings Chase will have to make his peace with the national commission.

He must apply for reinstatement, inasmuch as he became ineligible to play with an organized league as soon as he jumped his contract last fall and went to the California outlaws. It is no. secret that Manager Stallings wants to have Chase on the Highlanders and for that reason it is probable that the crack first baseman will be asked to pay a $250 fine before he can secure reinstatement. With Chase back in the New York fold it is possible that Moriarity will figure in with extra players with the Detroit club, as Manager Jennings is anxious to get hU hands on him. But if Chase does not return Moriarity will be the regular first baseman, as he showed last year that he could fill the position In excellent style.

From all accounts the New York Americans have picked up a fine young third baseman in Austin, of the Omaha club. Austin is a Cleveland boy and in the Western league last season he not only played the bag finely and hit hard, but also stole the remarkable number of 97 bases. Since the New York Americans drafted Austin the Omaha club has tried to buy him back, offering $3,000 for his release, but Manager Stallings has decided to hold on to him Why' is Garry Herrmann so slow in making public the national commission's verdict in the ticket scandal case? Murphy, of Chicago, intimates that the verdict will finally be pigeonholed In Herrmann's big sock. If there is nothing in he verdict that can reflect upon the "officials of the Chicago Cubs, baseball men want to know why there should be an objection to its publication. STATE LEAGUE NOTES.

Who said the Wilkes Barre team never led a league? There is an indoor baseball league in Syracuse consisting of eight teams all named after State league clubs and Wilkes Barre is leading ''with four victories and no If he Barons can only repeat. If Coleman is determined that Mad igan will either play in Scranton or not at all the Towand.a boy stands mighty poor chances of ever becoming a Baron. Madigan says he is not reserved because he never signed a contract. On the face of tills the argument looks good, but then it must be considered that the baseball rules have been made to favor the magnate and when a player shows a willingness to play with a certain team that is accepting that club's terms, and when a player accepts he is held as tight as though he signed a contract, and can, therefore, be reserved. Still, if Madigan refuses to play with Scran ton next season, Coleman isn't going to weaken his team' just to make him remain idle.

If Mike is determined not to go back to, the Electric City and he could hardly be blamed for doing so, it's dollars to doughnuts that Coleman will trade him for another player. Wilkes Barre News. Jimmy Magee showed that he is a otimer by the splendid record he made in the New England league. Every managerial problem in the State league, with the exception of Albany, has now been settled and It's almost a foregone conclusion that Mike Doharty will be back to handle the Senators.

We didn't think they were selling bad milk up through New York state.
