CYCLING CONTROL.

DISPUTE WITH UNION. SETTLEMENT LIKELY. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. The, control of the sport of cycling,in New Zealand, over which a disputu'has been taking place between the Board of Control (to which the New Zealand Amateur Athletic Association subscribes) and the comparatively young New Zealand Union of Cyclists, will probably be settled after the claims of each body have been referred for arbitration to Mr. Alexander Gray, K.C. A .letter on the subject from the National Cycling Union, England, was received br the council of the N.Z.A.A.A. yesterday night. The English body, which is more or less handling the business for the Union of Cyclists Internationale, the world controlling body, confessed that it was having some difficulty with the subject. It had come to the conclusion that arbitration was the best method of settling claims of the two bodies, and, on making application to the High Commissioner at London, Mr. Gray had been mentioned a« a suitable arbitrator. The council resolved to communicate to the English body its willingness to abido by the result of the arbitration which the English body has suggested.
