In his official capacity he ,bas authorised we. through tola paper, to issue to the Cnlted States athletic clubs and ifeoplo, a warm message of welcome to England for their repre sentatives.

He gave ma tba sheets with tha straightforward comment: am only 'too glad to be atla in this way to express my sen io uia American puoiic.- Ksssage, to American. Here la tha message: "I consider that all who take an In terest in tha revival of tha Olympic ' gramea of 1908 owa tha autboritiea of tha United Statea a deep debt of grati tude for the SDlendia manner in which they have thrown themselves Into tha movement - "I am glad to think that there Is very probability of the United States being so finely represented at the games -and that means that they will win a great many events. "I bat'e been in constant communl- ' cation with James E. Hulllvan, the sec retary of "-he American committee, Olympic games, and 1 should like to xpreas my personal thanks to him for the splendid manner in which he has worked to make the Olympic games of Xiondon the success which we now f ore- "No International athletic meeting would be complete without a very strong contingent from tha United , fitates. ' "They will be sure of a very hearty i welcome here, and If they are not too busy winning competitions I hope they will have time to see a little of the country. "The idea or tne uiympic games, as i tiave said more than once, is something ' ' beyond and above the mere holding of a rreat athletic meeting the underlying hope Is that the youth, and enpec!a'ly i the athletic youth of the different coun tries, by meeting each other in friendly . rivalry, will ret to know aeh other bel ter and appreciate each other more. "It la also trusted that these great 1 International meetings will tend to pro . note the true sportsmanlike feeling among. the nationa which take part, in . them , and foster amity and concord, peace and 'good will. . "DESBOROUGH." ' lord Desboroogh personally knows ' several members of the American team. He met them In Athens at the Olympio games there two years ago.

Card finished first last night in the closing relay of the six-day roller skating con test which beran at Exposition rink last Monday night. He and Farrell were a quarter of a lap ahead of the other con testanta when the pistol cracked, al though Farrell had loet a couple of laps during some or the nerve-racking spurts which characterised the relay earner in its course. Card took the lead at the start of the relay last night and with few interrup tions neid it untii tne close, several times during the SO-mlnute run he showed his speed by darting ahead and I setting a terrlno pace. When within a rew mmutea or tne ciose ne again spurt ed forward, there was none to gain the better of him and the heady little racer took a clear field until next to the last lap, when Farrell, who had lost a lap, dropped in behind him and .clung to his heels until the relay was finished. According to the score in laps Copeland takes second place and Holt finishes third. The score for the alx days' event Is as follows: Laps. 804 803 80l 7?4 7S 777 752 Fifty-four games, about. wlll be played by the Trl-Clty league clubs this season, being lust twice as many as were played last year.
