The club Is corap Memphis Sneaks Second Place Away From Smiths Crackers Memphis, dod gast her! Every time It looks am though Atlanta had a chance In the pennant race, those accursed Babblers butt In. Never did Atlanta visit Memphis that the Crackers did not tumble. Nevef has Mem phis come here that the same thlug did not happen. And now, right here at the flrat of Au gust, with the teams, almost ready to enter the last lap of the contest, those blooming red necki. those burglars, have to bump In with a double-header and take second place from us, Just at jk time when It look* ed as though the place was cinched. Of all the Inhuman acta ever perpetrated this beats them all. The pennant race Tight now Is so warm that It la hard to get within talking dfa tance of It. Birmingham's lead is decidedly wobbly. Just now the Baroha are running true and fast, but one swerve or one atnmble will drop them back to nowhere. So far, tho Birmingham!tea have taken every hur dle nnd every ditch without a bobble, but It will surprise nobody to aee them* come a cropper at any stage. Memphla has come up from nowhere ln the last couple of weeks, and will be hard to hesd. With Ltebhsrdt winning three or four games n week, and the other pitchers doing pretty well—even down to Loucks, the Babblers have a wonder fully good chance for the pennant Atlanta Is ln third place by a whisker. Winning work will put Billy Smith's team In second place lu a day or two, and a •Ingle mlscne will put the bunch In fourth place In that time or less. Just now the Crackers are .008 behind Memphis, and .001 ahead of New Orleaua. New Orleana. which club has made a spectacular drop from first to fourth place, la far from being counted out. Frank's million dollar aggregation Is only .028 from Birmingham, and n wlunlng streak will put the Pelicans back at the front In fast style. mer drop, and Is back ln the second dlrl- j •Ion, After flirting with the lead, for weeks I nnd weeks. It Is probable that Gllks’ team can nearly be counted out of the pennant though anybody who beta money on It Is taking a chance. Bobby Gllks Is s hard man to keep down, and If he can ever round his team Into Its true form, he Is likely to be up ln select company any day. — Montgomery Is a strong finisher, and si- ways waa, but Dominick Mnllaney's team I can probably be safely counted out. The Climbers are ln. sixth place, and that It very far from the top, even In a raco so close as is tho one in the Sonthsrt | League. If the preeent race has ever been beaten I In Interest in ths South, it is bard to tell when. In years past, two or three teami have been hung around the top, but not | even when Atlanta harpooned New Or leana In 1904 and allowed Memphis to land I the pennant by a whisker, or back In the misty past, when Mike Finn aqd Little Rock participated In a couple of eyelaih j finishes, has thla on* been equalled. Just now only .070 separates the leading I team from the fifth, and tha prospects tot audden changes are bright Atlanta has a bard time ahead of her. Within tho 'next two weeks tho Crackers ! have two series against tho Birmingham team, now the league leaders. Up to ths present, the local team hns always been [ able to take the measure of the Barons, bat they will find the Birmingham bunch hard to beat this trip. However, here’s hoping for tbe beet ■■■■li Billy Smith Is Suspended; Shuster May Have Jumped The Atlanta players left Wednesday night for Montgomery, where they play Thursday, Friday and Saturday. With them went Billy Smith, bnt Wil liam la under suspension. Just before tbe second game Wednesday, Umpire Buckley received notice from league headquarters that Smith was Indefinitely suspended, and ordering him to keep tbe Atlanta manager off tbe grounds. As soon as Billy Smith was notified h« put »u his cltlsens clothes, and when the second game began toe disappeared. Smith waa suspended because of bis at tempted assault on Umpire Shuster. It Is stated that Shuster notified .President Kar naugh that Smith actually hit him. It Is well known by all who saw the Incident that Smith did not actually hit ths tubby tiuips, and If Shuster made such a charge he was In error, to put It mlldljr. Thursday morning, nt tbe request of ths bate!*!! association, the sporting. editors | of ths local papers joined ln a telegram to President Kavanaugh stating that they saw the Incident, and that Smith did not bit Shnster. It Is doubtful If the suspension of tbs | Atlanta manager will extend over a long period of time. There was, of course, no Justification for Smith's attempted assault j on Shnster, and there Is no doubt but that such an assault was Intended. But tbs | fact remains that Shuster w/is not bit by . Smith, ami, In consequence, the local man* ager'a punishment will undoubtedly be com paratively light. It Is supposed that Shuster Jumped ths ; Job from here. As far aa can be learn ed, be did not leave for Montgomery, as was ordered to, and It will not l# | surprising If he “turned up mining.” Well, small loss! 8ILOAM WIN8 SPEEDY GAME.
