As a rule, the South Atlantic papers were delighted with the prospect of getting such a valuable addi tion to their circuit, while the Southern Isengue papers were dismayed nt the proa pect of losing the city which ntnuds with Hlrtnlnghrfm oa the hacklmue of the league —though It may he mentioned In passing that many writers tried to conceal Ibis dismay by much loud talking and strong writing (strong, In the case of the New Orleans yellows, as butter and aUcb things get strong). Here are a few selections from the vlewa of other papers on the question: “WE WILL NOT* LET THEM.” From The New Orleans States. It la all a bluff about Atlanta with drawing from tbu Southern Baseball An- cclat|on and faking Birmingham with them Into the South Atlantic league. As a mat ter of fact, aueli a thing a* Atlanta get ting out of the Southern league nnd join ing the South Atlantic la ridiculous, for, In the first place, the National Association of Professional Baseball Clubs, of which the Southern snd South Atlantic leagues are members, would hsve to lie consulted. At lanta la a part of the Southern League cir cuit, nnd no matter who may own the At lanta franchise that town would have to lie In that circuit nnd no other, no matter how nnxfoua Captnlu Joyner may Iw to Join the South Atlantic League, lie could not do ao because the Southern longue would oppose It to the bitter end, and would, lie upheld In tbrir contentions by the National Association and the supreme court of baseball, the nattonnl commission, which would he called upon to settle the dispute niut everylmdy who knows baseball 1aw Is aware that the decision would l»e that Atlanta Is still a member of the Southern League, with, perhaps, new owuers of the franchise. “PUT ’EM OUTT 8AY8 T. D. From The New Orlenna Times-Democrat. Of* course, the threat to draw out of the Southern longue on the. part of At lantn la all a bluff. Everybody around the circuit understands that. Atlanta didn't even have the courage to come out nud take this stand by herself; she hna made what will probably prove an unsuc cessful attempt to rope jmor Birmingham In with her. . Atlanta may not have to pull out of the Southern league. There la a marked possibility that she will be thrown out, and Hlrinlnghnm won’t go with her, either. Twice within the last three weeks umpires have l»een mobbed In the Georgia capital, nnd It Is safe to that these tactics, connected with others even worse, will not go In anch au gaiilaatlon ns the Southern League, which has a standard ns high aa any other base- twill organisation In the country. MAKE IT EASIER FOR FRANK. From The Macon Telegraph. In speaking on the subject of Atlanta and Birmingham leaving the Southern League, the New Orlenna Hally States' dope writer says the remainder of the league will be perfectly willing to let these two go. Then, to prove beyond the shadow df a doubt that be hn* Immmi visiting a dope “den," this literary genius goes further and adds the atartllug statement that the trading of Atlanta nnd Birmingham for Chattanooga and Mobile would add to the'strength of the Southern. It might. In reality, make It a little easier for Charlie Frank to carry on his high-handed measures without Inter ruptlou. birminghanTunwilling. Front The Birmingham News.

( when ha read the threat by Atlanta to withdraw from the Southern league. Mr. Baugh Is a little too wise for aueh thing, and of course the Atlanta association also In endowed with more wisdom than move from a Class A league to a league In a few classes below. One of the New Orleans papers states that It la probable the present owners of tha Atlanta club will ’be asked to retire from the game. Let Kavanaugh ask them or let Charlie Frank start something with At lanta. The sooner the better. Charlie will get hla aolur plexus. DOESN'T LOOK HALF BAD. From The Macon Newa. F.dltor Percy Whiting of the baseball pagt of The Atlanta Georgian has Just finished hitting the pipe. What Whiting did wat to figure up the population of the cities' comprising the Southern nnd South Atlantic, leagues, then propped a change of allegiance on the part of Atlanta- nnd Birmingham. And It does not look half had either. Atlanta seems to have a pretty go&d reason for soreness at certalu Southern League off! clala and her skipping Into the South-At lantfc League would prove a balm for that hurt and bolster up this letgue*ss well. “FOOL18H ‘ATLANTA." From The Montgomery Journal. The latest thlug out In. tmaebal! la l_. threat of some of the directors of the At lanta club to Join the South Atlantic League or form a new lenftue, and they-expect Birmingham to Join them! Poor Atlanta;' foolish Atlanta. This the silliest rot we have'ever read. ,Juat think of It. Chief Joyner, says he would welcome a change. I*owry Arnold aaya, We cannot get Juatlce In the Southern League." PRETTY GOOD MOVE. From The Birmingham Ledger. Percy Whltlag fix* sougded the people of Birmingham and AtUtnta with regard to the scheme of pulling out of the Southern League and going Into the South Atlantic. The scheme will not probably • be worked, Imt It would Im* a pretty good move. One of the Charleys , down In New Or leans writes a long article about WhBlug'a scheme to disrupt, the Southern League, lie throws mud all. over- Birmingham nnd At lanta. and uses his usual muddy arguments.

Neither man can do anything else hut write nlmut base- boll, nnd there would be no baseball to write about. fW-riously now, Percy, your scheme Is not » very bad. A reinedf It needed.
