Special to the Indianapolis Jourr.al. ANDERSON, Ind., April S.-In the meeting of the managers of the Western Polo League here, this afternoon, what promised to te a lively scrap between Fox. of Ma

rion, and Henley, of Richmond, started, but was stopped ju?t in time by the other managers. '.The fight began over some affidavits introduced b3 fox in regard to the MarionRichmo;.d game at Richmond Wednesday evening. One of these affidavits was signed by Mr. Stinson. proprietor of the Marion club. When Fox introduced it Henley sprang to his feet and called Stinson a liar. Mr. Stinson said nothing, but Fox took it up, and after some high words he called Henley a " liar." Henley immediately clinched with him, and they had a lively wrestle for a few seconds. The others in the room started to interfere, and Jessup, of Richmond, reached the combatants first. Fox evidently thought Jessup came to help Henley, instead of to part them, and he tried to strike Henley, but was prevented. No blows were actually landed during the melee, and the only damage resulting was a badly mussed collar for Fox and a scratched cheek for Henley. During the rest of the meeting both men talked pretty loud, but no further righting was indulged in. The meeting was called for the purpose of discussing- Fox's protests on playing of Farrell. of Muncie, in the RichmondIndianapolis game Tuesday night and the Marion-Richmond game. The managers decided that both games will stand as played. After the decision Fox offered to post $1.100. of which $G0 was put up by himself and his men and $50 by Stinson, with Secretary Durbin. President Norton or any one Henley might select, to cover a serjes of three games between Marion and Richmond, to be played on neutral ground. Henley refused this offer, but made a counter proposition, to the effect that he would bot Fox $500 on one game, to be played at Richmond. Fox also refused. As announced a day or so ago, Durbin and Norton tendered their resignations, but it was not considered advisable to accept them until after the formal awarding of the pennant. The resignations will be accepted at the annual meeting of the board, which probably will be held within the next two weeks. Men outside the ranks will be elected for next year, and an arbitration board of three disinterested men probably will be selected also. The proposition of putting the league on a percentage basis will come up for consideration at this meeting, and the managers seem more favorable to the proposition than in former years. M'COY WON'T TAKE ON ROOT FOR SOME TIME He Will Consider Ryan and Fitzsjmmons After He Fights O'Brien. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CHICAGO. April 8. Kid McCoy wired from New York to-day that he would not consider any proposition from Jack Root, as he Is considering offers from Ryan and Fitzsimmons after his fight with O'Brien.

TOMMY MO WATT. He Will Box Kid Abel In This City on April IS. KID ABEL 111 THIS tin TO Crack Featherweights Come to Terms and Will Finish WindUp on April 18. AGREE ON 130 POUNDS Tommy Mowatt, the "fighting conductor," and Kid Abel, Chicago's ghetto champion, have been matched to meet in a ten-round contest for a decision in Indianapolis on Monday "evening, April IS. The match was not closed until yesterday by the Indianapolis Athletic Club, although negotiations have been pending for several days. The men agreed to the terms last Wednesday, but before articles were signed, Mowatt was offered a match with Benny Yanger in Chicago and the contest with Abel was postponed for a time. But Yanger and Mowatt could not agree on the weight question and negotiations were again opened for Mowatt and Abel to come together in Indianapolis and they sigr.ed articles yesterday. The weight agreed upon was 130 pounds at 3 o'clock on tne day of the contest. This will be the first contest of any consequence between the little fellows that has been given in Indianapolis since the At-tell-Forbes bout the first of the year. Mowatt has been seen in Indianapolis twice before, when he. defeated Eddie Santry two years ago and last July when he stopped Pete Boyle, of New York, in the sixth round. Since that time Mowatt has rapidly jumped to the top of the ladder and has defeated Kid Broad twice, fought a J draw with Charles Neary, the Milwaukee champion, and has defeated a score of other good boxers. His most recent contest was with Young Corbett in Chicago last Saturday night, when he stayed the six rounds, but lost the decision to the champion. Abel is ofie of the best little fellows ln tho featherweight class and his record shows that he has met nearly all the topnotchers and has defeated most of them. He is known as one of the gamest boxers in the ring and can stand a great deal of punishm?nt as well as being able to deliver the goods to his opponent. ENTRIES AND WEIGHTS FOR KINLOCH CLASSIC ST.

NOT ENOUGH ATHLETES FOR TWO GOOD TEAMS It Is Thought that There May Be No S. H.-S. Basehall Team Next Year. The opening of the spring athletic sea son of Shortricl?e High School has again started the discussion upon the advisability of supporting both a track and a baseball team. Many of the students contend that only one of the teams should be supported, as most of the baseball team are good track men. and vfee versa. They also contend that this is the reason that these teams have not made the showing ln athletics that the football and basketba'l teams have. There are not enough athletically inclined boys in the school to make two good teams in one season, and so it is thought that r.cxt season one of the teams will be abolished and, as the track team will give more men a chance, it will be re taincd. This year's baseball team contains orr.e athletes who would undoubtedly be point winners on the track team. Will Conner, the baseball team's captain, is the school's only hope in the weight events. but he cannot train for both teams at the same time. McKinney, the 'varsity pitcher. in the only high hurdler of ability in the blue and white squad, and Paul Weer is the best lumper the school has hnd in a num ber-of seasons. Aronson and McCauley are both promising men with the shot and Failey gives promise of developing into a fast sprinter. In fact, every man on the squad could make the track team in some event if it were possible to try for two teams at the same time. Donovan Mny .Manure Senators. WASHINGTON, April S.-Following the sale of the Washington baseball club, the stockholders held a meeting to-day anc: elected Wilton J. Iambcrt president. Wil liam J. Uwyer vice president, general man ager and treasurer and John J. Walsh sec retary. Tom Ix)ftus will remain as acting man ager of the team until his successor, who is likely to be I. J. Donovan, of the St. Louis Nationals, Is secured. President Han Johnson, of the American

League, has left for Chicago.

People who reside in the White river lowlands or alons: the flood-swept district of Indianapolis have long since realized that the rainfall this season has been very excessive, . but not one of them expressed xc much disgust as Bill Phillips, manager of the Indianapolis baseball team, did yesterday morning when he saw the condition of Washuifiton Park after, the rain the night before. He had Just cause to feel sore at Jupiter Pluvius, as the Hoosiers have not had an opportunity for two days' practice in succession so far this spring, and Phillips realizes that to get his men in good form they must have several days' successive training. The spasmodic showers during the day rendered the park unfit for the last game of the exhibition series with Detroit, and also placed the field in such condition that the Hoosiers could not practice. Phillips wanted another chance with the Detroit

Tigers, because the American Leaguers had won the only two games that had been played with the Hoosiers. ilie players gathered at the park and rhillips took eocasion to drill them in his ideas of team work during a prolonged session in the clubhouse. Captain Jlagoon a"lso cave a brief address to the intielders and the manner in which the captain and manager talked to the players one would have thought it was a meeting of college football players learning the se crets of mass plays. The Buffalo Eastern League team is scheduled for a game this afternoon, and with pleasant weather this morning there Is a good chance for the game being played. The Hoosiers are in need of all the practice they can get. Indianapolis was scheduled for a game at Fort Wayne to-morrow, but this has been declared off because the Fort Wayne park i3 under water. The Hoosiers will be idle to-mor row. Phillies Deat Athletic. PHILADELPHIA. April 8. -The Nation als beat the Americans to-day 4 to 2.
