L'uleas one of tho serlee between IJttle Ilock nnd the I'ellcene In the Creecent City le transferred beck to Utile llock—end Zimmer hee heard of no euch transfer—the league le caught In the act of doing Jnet what Atlanta haa protected against moat bitterly for a couple of /cars—giving New Orlaana more games at homo .then they here on the a roed. 11/ glrlng them more at home the league helps Charle/ Frank In his race for the pennant nnd propor- tlonall/ handicaps the other clubs In their efforts elong the same line. New Orleene le tchednled to pla/ nt Ut ile Hock August 6, 7 nnd 8. Ilut Manager Zimmer haa lieen notified to go to New Orlaana for this series.

Moet of the talk about Charley Frank end hie position at "Dictator of the latagne” hie been unadulterated bosh, but If he cen dictate to th* league whore game* arc to be played It look* pretty bed. Manager Smith waa up In arms when In formed of the Intended ewltch. ''We’ll have to do something,” be said, "i'll write to Harry Vaughan nnd flud out what be knowe about It. Birmingham and Atlanta Will hare to hang together on this deal." When Manager Zimmer wee asked about It he Bold: "I only know that wo hare been ordered by the president of the league to play those games In New Orleans, In stead of In IJttle Rock, where they ere scheduled. And we here not been Informed of any switching of games beck to Little Rock to make op for It, so. I take It that we Just lose those home games.” i Manager Zimmer, of Little Rock, seemed glad to land In Atlanta Monday and ap peared relieved that be bed escaped from New Orlenne. When he was aeked If he saw any evi dences of "rubber" ball* In l’ellcentown he said: ”1 gucat It le the old ceec down there —'punk ball*' or 'Iced ball*' when the Tie- Itore are at hat, ‘Hr* bells' when the homo team comae In, But of conre* 1 can’t prove It. "It la none of ray Dullness," continued the Chief, "hut If I wee President Kara- nengh 1 would go down there myself end when things looked auspicious I would go right on tbo Held, get the ball and cat It 6pen."

"I talked the matter over with Uerry Vaugben," be said, "and we decided that there waa nothing In the constitution or br-lawa of th* league, and nothing In the rule* of the National Association' or tho rales of baseball which prevented tae from going In and out when I pleated I think that President Ktvtnaugh Wat wrong when he warned Vaughan and me that If we went out again we could not go beck, case It la neccseary w* will teat that ruling." Manager Smith was much pleased at th* •howlng of Child, In Monday's game. “He did not try to pitch hla head off In th* Drat two or three Innings the way he has other times," said Manager Billy, "and In consequence he lasted better.” When asked about Duggan and chancea of making th* team, Manager Smith said: "I don't know what about Dug gan. but one thing It certain, he will get a fair trial with ne.” By TAD.

' Berger went after him the moment the bell clanged nnd eTery minute daring the six ronndt he helte.1 the I'blladelphlsn. It was the surprise of O'Brien's life. Jmtead of the big soft Isd—a rammer at the game—he found one with a wallop that tore, end etung. O’Brien tried to jump nnd Jab. lie waa welted In the body. Ho tried to slug, but was fought back to the rope* He tried to feint, but found in opponent who wes-ae cool as he. O'Brien was beaten at every turn. Berger never for a moment lost bis con fident air.

With hie lips tightly closed, met the Quaker In the center of the ring and the very Drat crack elammed him on the Jaw with a left. He wee crouching slightly and went after O'Brien, who Im mediately started hie "Jumping Jack” tac tics, sending hi, left over to Berger's face. Berger had studied thla aa he had watched O'Brien In former battle! and ne O'Brien Jumped be shifted tie heed to the side and tore- his left Into the Quaker’e body with terrific force. He did It again nnd again. Surprised at the eaee with which he located the Quaker, Berger went after him and whaled away with both hand* The crowd wee In an uprotr. O'Brien had met a matt who hit him In eTery ex change. He danced In and ont, from tide to aide, and while dancing to the right he met a left of Berger'a that sent him to the ropes, and raised a lump like an olive over hla right eye. Berger's seconds were wildly yelling for him to keep at O'Brien and Berger was there like "Johnny behind the rock.” He forced the Quaker all OTer the ring, taking Jaha to smash the body with cither hand, and aettlng a pace that waa killing. O'lirVn opened the second by smashing hla left to Berger's nose, drawing blood, but tho latter never (topped. He ripped left Into O'Brien'* stomach that lifted the latter off the Door end ns O'Brien ducked an Imaginary left Berger welted him on tho eye with a right hook that tore a gash an Inch wide In the Quaker's eyebrow. Blood Dowed down O'Brlen'e face, over hla •lioulder and down hla cheat Jn a stream. Berger’s glove we* eoon bloody and every time be smashed the Quaker he left e red mark, so that In a few moments O'Brien looked more like an Indian than a white man. In th* third Berger was Dghtlng mainly for the Imdg. O'Brien clouted Be r - ls.th sides of the Jaw with left and end was etung twice In the body f or *£ tronhle.

In the fifth both stowed up a trifle, seem. Ing to hold out for the last round. n. rr . r did not force much and O'Brien made his heat showing of the fight. There was i fierce mix on the ropea at the hell. They shook' bands as the gong called them to the center In the sixth and Berger start- ed "kidding" O'Brien.

No damage wee done by the play, anyway, ao wbat's the uae? Johnson* made the flrat clean hit for tha visitors In tha seventh, and It wee a mighty pretty one, too. The next three men were easy oats, however, and so again, what't the uae? It euro did look like rain In th* eecond end third Innings and the little eprlnkllng that did come only addad to the fetra of the fina. No doubt the visitor* were offer ing silent preyen for rain before the fifth Inning, bnt It we* not' to be and not i moment wae lost on account of the dritxlt. Wallace accepted hla four chances In a very professional manner, and with hla two hits made a good Impression upon the local crowd, who expect greet things to develop from the new youngster.
