THE PHILADELPHIA TIMES, SUNDAY MORNING, JANUARY 20, 1001. 10 AUTOMOBILE. MOTOR "GOHWA" CAMDEN PLAYED NEW YORK A TIE The Game Was Slow, But at Finish Was Full of Excitement. BDDD WON SHOOT-OFF WITH M'COY Captured Challenge Cup on Keystone Grounds Wind Drove Birds Fast. TWO-YEAR-OLDS FACE STARTER Haydens Won Race in Fine Style Ben Chance Got the Live Oak Handicap.

GARDNER IS SUSPENDED NO TRIBUTE DEMANDED OF THE ASSOCIATION League to Allow the New Organization to Invade Its Territory Without Pay-ment of a Cent for Privilege. CONSTITUTION AND BY-LAWS ADOPTED of the'iwtjor organization owners and tho ultimatum given out. The most astounding Information given to the Association, and which the public will receive with some Incredulity, was that not one cent would be demanded by the League in the form of tribute In consideration of the Association entering cities iu which League clubs are already located, and In those cities which the League still controls the franchises. The magnanimous attitude of the League can well be understood when it Is stated that only aoout a year ago, when It desired to reduce Its circuit from twelve to eight clubs, It paid to the Washington Club, to the Baltimore Club, and to Louisville and Cleveland sums proportionate. Having expended these sums of money to acquire control of the franchises In these cities they now give the American Association the privilege of entering without a penny subsidy.

This is truly remarkable. On the surface no other reason appears except to hnndleap Huu Johnson Iu his effort to locate American League clubs in these cities and cities already occupied by the League clubs. Even though the League is going to benefit this much It would seem that they would have demanded a nominal sum for the privilege of protection and entering. This, however, Is denied. Future developments may show that they are the gainers financially by some arrangement not now known to the public.

The agreement between the National League and the American Association Is for only one year. As a matter of fact this is the limit of time that the big organization has the power to grant protection to any lose ball association, as it will cease to be an organized body In a year. This being the state of affairs the Association promoters, although they know their circuit Is far from strong, will make a strong attempt to take the field and play the season out. Having done this and obtained an entrance In these cities the Association will be In a good position to face the League with a strong front. The American Association has adopted a constitution and by-laws that In nowise conflict with the National League and has also elected W.

H. Watkius president, secretary and treasurer. HOUGH TACTICS BY BOTH The game at the old Armory last night between Camden and New York resulted lu a tie, the score at the finish being 13 to 15. Camden escaped defeat at the last moment, when through Dietrich's offense the point was uinde that brought their tnllles equal to those of their opponents. Time was culled immediately after before the bull could be tossed again.

The play was very slow and uninteresting for the greater part of the time, but with about 7 minutes of time left both teams cut loose and considerable interest was developed. The score was tied three times during this short space, first nt 0 points, then at 8 and finally at tbe finish at 1.1. Each team secured but three goals from the field, Kerat getting a most difficult one. while Cramer wns presented with one by Pletrlch, who held the hall at arm's length directly under the basket, allowing Cramer to snatch It away and toss It for a score.

HORSES GRAND EXHIBITION BY ELECTRIC LIGHT, MONDAY EVE'G, JAN'Y 21 ST, FROM T. 30 TILL 10 O'CLOCK. FOR LADIES, WHO ARE CORDIALLY EXHIBITION AND THE SALE JOHN S. BRATTON, EAST ST.

LOUIS, ILL. PAINTER AND BREWER TIE Not since the opening shoot In the contest for the Keystone League Challenge Cup has there been such an interesting event as that held on the grounds of the League yesterday at Holmesburg, and, although Isaac W. Budd, one of the Keystone's best wing shots, carried off the prize after a short battle with McCoy, he was forced to do some great shooting. So far as the contest for the cup Is concerned Henry has four wins to his credit, and is the ouly one who has more tuna one, but there are still over three mouths' shooting for It, aud Jt is within the possibility of some one tlelng him, yet It Is hardly probable with the way the veteran is Nhooilng at present. The glorious victory over the Baltimore tenui lust Thursday has Infused new life into the club members, aud yesterday's shoot was attended by one of the largest orwds of the season.

The shooters certainly faced about the hardest conditions that have been presented in any of the contests. Seldom If ever has such a wind been encountered. It blew a perfect gale straight across the traps from the left and more than ninety per cent, of the birds missed were screaming right-iiuarterers or terrific drivers, which were simply unhit table. lie-sides this many birds were killed in the nir, but were going' with such tcrrlflc speed as to he carried far over I lie boundary wire, falling like stoues to the ground. The scores fail to show tho good work done by the men and some of the best shots ever seen on the Keystone grounds were recorded.

Chnllentte Cup Shoot. The honors for tine shooting were pretty well distributed despite the fact that the majority of the scores were far below the usual average. There was not one straight score made by the contestants In the challenge cup event, but this was no disgrace for the shooters. P.udd and McCoy were the only ones to score nine, ami both missed exceptionally hard birds. Gelkler suffered the worst In luck, having all his four lost birds drop dead out of In the shoot-off for ties Budd killed three straight, while McCoy lost his second, a difficult driver.

l'nlnter and llrewer Straight. There was a great deal of delay owing to the adverse conditions, and it was so dark before the club handicap was finished that the birds could not be seen leaving the traps. The wind tiled out some, but the birds were fast aud strong nnd the darkness made It hard shooting. The event was limited Jto club members and seventeen went to the score. For the first five birds good scores were made, but when It began to got dark all hands toot a hand at losing them with the exception of J.

R. Painter and Brewer, whose lynx-like eyes seemed able to pierce the darkness, and they were the only ones to finish with a clean score. Ir. Darby shot In splendid form and killed ulne straight and only lost the tenth because he nor anyone else could see the bird leave the trap, and Darby did not shoot at all. Painter's work was remarkable.

He seemed to shoot at specks In the air and killed his last three birds with one barrel, when they, could not be seen by many of the spectators. In this event also several scores were spoiled by hard bit birds dropping dead out of bounds. Henry, Davis and Cash-more came in for second honors with nine kills each. The Board of Oovernors are hard at work on the plans for the opening of the new grounds at the rear of the club house. The grounds have been secured and It Is expected that this week will see a new set of traps, house room nnd complete shooting outfit in readiness for the shooters.

This will make a wonderful Improvement in the grounds nnd will make the Keystone League the most complete grounds in the State. The scores of yesterday's events arc: Keystone Challenge Cup Shoot, championship of Philadelphia county, 10 live birds, 30 yards rise, optional Bweepslake, $2.50 entrance, Rose svatem. K. II.

The promoters of the now American Association finished their three days' meeting here this evening and departed for their homes none too well pleased with the de velopments of the week. That the outcome of the meeting was entirely different from what ench expected when they arrived here Inst Wednesday many admitted. When the promoters assembled at the Hotel Marl borough for an Informal tain euuesuny evening everything looked like plain sailing and a strong circuit seemed assured. It was not until they had had a conference with the National League representatives that they saw their plans would have to he modified, for the time at least. J.

I. Rogers, secretary of the Philadelphia National League Club, not only forced the American Association people to take a step entirely unexpected, but also used the whip to lush his own colleagues Into his line-of action. This wus In the matter of the granting of the franchise In Philadelphia. The American Association people had decided to allot the Quaker City territory to 0. II.

Koch, but at the last moment Rogers Insisted that it be given to "Hoz" Nlles, who has figured in base ball deals with the League owner before. It is known that Hart, Roblson and l-'reednian, who, with Sodeu, represented the League, were willing to permit Koch to enter 1'hlladelphln, and Rohison even went so far as to suggest to Mr. Nlles that the League would take upon Itself to give the Philadelphia franchise to anyone it pleased, notwithstanding Mr. Rogers' preference for Nlles. This, how-ever, Rohison knew the League had not the power to do, as the League constitution gives to each club the privilege to control its own territorial rights.

Under this clause Rogers held the master hand and played It well. The League and Association representatives met at the Fifth Avenue Hotel this morning and were In conference for about an hour. At the termination of this period the Association people left the room and the League moguls considered the Association's last requests In secret. After a short conference the Association promoters were again called within the august presence PENN WILL MEET YALE Gymnastic Dual to Tnko Tlnce la This City.

Special Telegram to The Times. Boston, January 19.

As President Koden, of the Boston Base Ball Club, has been away since the American League hired grounds here, J. B. Billings, one of the triumvirate. Is the one sought by the newspaper men. He said to-day: "The League is In no position to give anything more than Its moral support, and tho privileges which fie national agreement guarantees.

I knew pretty well the returns each club received last year, and the only one to make money was Pittsburg. What I can't understand Is how a man of resources aud business ability, as Somerg Is reported to be, will emlwrk In such a scheme. Base bull Is not the atu-acilve investment it was. Thoso In It stay largely on account of the fasclua-tlon. I know nothing about Soiners, but luteud to look him up.

We are going to lie at the South Knd grounds next year, giving the best base ball to lie had. The other Leagues cannot compete with us In this respect. "At the League meeting In New York we looked over the American league players, when it whb apparent that Johnson was to withdraw from tho agreement, and we found none desirable. Most of them were players cast adrift by the National league, or young men hose worth was yet to be proved. We give the best salaries aud so can command the best talent.

I can see only one termination of this new state of things. The new. comers will have to sunvii'lor. The old lirother-linad had everything, the bfBt players and g.ouuds, tut we crushed It In twelve mouilis." "Will you ever coine down to twenty-live cent ball'" was asked. "Never." Mr.

Billings, referring to Duffy, said that that player's case bad not yet been disposed of, and he was unable to state when a decision would be reached. He thought the return to the twelve-club circuit was a proiKisitlon based only ou newspaper talk. "Full many a flower is born to blush unseen And waste Its sweetness on the desert But every line and word a Times Ad holds A rich return of good are seen to bear.
