SCHWARTZ IS REINSTATED
AND HICKMAN IS RELEASED
Report That Mullaney Has Signed Bumum
Proves Erroneous—Atlanta’s Deal For
Schwartz Off—Smith After DeArmond.
Manajr*r MuJJmb&j, of tbe Montgomery
train, baa reinstated Schwartz, hla atar aec*
on<l Iwacraan, who haa t**on under auapen*
alon, and haa released Hickman, who haa
been playing aecond base.
Thla puta an end to Manager Smith**
deni for the. Montgomery Jnfielder. Manager
Hmltb haa had wires out for DeArmond of
late, but baa not landed him yet, nor ara
tbe prospects, rery good.
The report that Burnum h|d been signed
by Manager Mullaney prored erronous. "I
hare not signed Burnum, though I may,'*
said Manager Mullaney. "I don't think
he la In shape, or I would land him. I
am out for another pitcher and. may get
one before I return home. Burnum came
to me and asked me to gtre him a trial,
which I aeid J rrouM do, although I told
him I would not sign him until he showed
me that he was In shape to play ball. And
I don't think he la In shape. So I guesa
that deal will not go through."
The Cordele management la after George
Stinson, tbe ontflelder released by Manager
Smith. It la doubtful If Stinson la In shape
to play anywhere, however. He Is In bad
physical condition now and may be out
of tbe game for some time.
Manager Smith waa delighted with the
good condition Archer prored to be In, and
hopes that Jlminy will be able to go right
along now and play practically every game.
Atlanta's star catcher seems little tbe worse
for hla accident, and Is hobbling around
lo good style.

Special to Tbe Georgian.
Cordele, Ga., Jane 36.—At a meeting of
the directors of the Georgia State League
In Albany yesterday President Thomas wae
sent a resignation which be waa asked to
