PROSPECT THAT ATLANTA MAY JUMP CREATES DECIDED STIR IN LEAGUE The Atlanta Georgian's story of Monday to the effect that the Atlanta club would l>e glad to get out of tbe Bouthern League and Into the Bouth Atlantic, provided It waa not possible to get some relief from present undesirable domination ol Charley Frank, the Tebeau of the South- era League, stirred up a world of comment thronghout the South. 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 League papers were dismayed at the pros pect of losing the city which stnnds with Birmingham aa the backbone of the league —though It may be mentioned In passing that many writers tried to conceal this dismay by much loud talking and strong writing (strong, In the case of the tyw Orleans yellows, as butter and ouch things get strong). Here art a few selections from the views of other papers on the question: "WE WILL NCT LET THEM." From The New Orleans States. It Is all a bluff shout Atlanta with drawing from the Southern Baseball As* eolation and taking Birmingham with them ter from Mr. Gshsgsn for $10,000. The Into the South Atlantic League. * As a mat- nstne of the purchaser could not be learned, but the rale was tbs talk of the track dur ing tbe day.

At lanta Is a part of tho Southern League cir cuit, and no matter who may own tho At lanta franchise that town would have to he In that circuit nnd no other, no matter how anxious Cnptalu Joyner may be to Join the South Atlantic League. 1I« could not do so because tho Southern League would oppose It to the bitter end, and would be upheld In their contentions by the National Association and the supreme court of baseball, tbe national commission, which would be called upon to settle the dispute and everybody who knows baaebalt law It* aware that the decision would be that Atlanta Is still s member of the Southern League, with, perhaps, new owners of the franchise. . "PUT 'EM OUT/' 8AYS T. D. From The New Orleans Tlmes-Democrat. Of course, the threat to draw out of the Southern League on the part of At lanta Is all a bluff. Everybody arouud the circuit understands that. Atlanta didn't even have the courage to come out nnd take this stand by herself; she has made what will probably prove on unsuc cessful attempt to rope poor Birmingham In With her. Atlanta may not have to pull out of the Southern League. There Is a marked possibility that she will be' thrown out, and Birmingham won't go with her, either. Twice within the last three weeks umpires have been mobbed In the Georgia capital, and It Is safe to say that these tactics, connected with others even worse, will not go In such sti or ganisation as the Southern League, which has a standard as high as any other base ball organisation In the couutry. MAKE IT EA8~»ER FOR FRANK. From The Macon Telegraph. In speaking on the subject of Atlanta and Birmingham leaving the Southern League, the New Orleans Dally States' dope writer •ays the remainder of tbe league will be perfectly witting to let these two go. Theu, to prove beynud the shadow of s doubt that Us has been visiting a dope "den,' this literary genius goes further nnd adds the startling statement that tbe trading of Atlanta nnd Birmingham for Chattanooga nnd Mobile would add to the strength of the Southern. It might, lu reality, make It a little easier for Charlie Frank to carry on hla high-handed measures without Inter ruption. BIRMINGHAM - UNWILLING. From The Birmingham News. President Bsuxh of the local sssoclntlnn If the press agent for tbe East I’nlnt bseebsll teem had signed his nsme to tho eommnnlestlon to the effect thst the Me- Cnlle teem forfeited the geme echedoled for Wednesday, the atory would hove been run.

Indianapolle, An#. lO.-FIght followers of Indlannpolls and vlelnlly ore looking for ward lo soring a rattling t">ut at the tunc- ball park tonight, when “Kid" Herman and Benny Y'nnger meet for a ten-round go. It will be the second time the two have met In the ring. Ynnger was the victor In their prevlone encounter, but It Is nrknowleged that llcnuan at that time had not devel- op.nl Into the lighter bo Is today. Both men hare been training faithfully for to night's go and appear to be In the pink of condition. If Herman wins be will Immedi ately try to get on a match with Battling Kelson. FAN TYPE No. 22. enjoyed a pleasant smile when he road the throat by Atlanta to withdraw from the Southern League. Mr. Baufh Is m little too wise for such n thing, and of course the Atlanta association also Is endowed with more wisdom than to move from a Class A league to a league In a few classes below.' One of the New Orleans papers states thflt It is probable the present owners of the Atlsnta club will tie naked to retire from tbe game. Let Kavausngh ask them or let Charlie Frank start something with At lanta. The sooner tbe better. Charlie will get his solar plexus. DOESNT LOOK HALF BAD. From The Macon News. ' Editor Percy Whiting of tbe baseball page of The Atlanta Georgian has Just finished hitting the pipe. What Whiting did was to figure up the populstlon of the cities comprising the Southern and South Atlaatlb leagues. He then proposed a change of allegiance on ths part of Atlanta and Birmingham. And It does pot look half bad either, Atlanta seams to hive a pretty good reason ior soreness at certain Southern League offi cials nnd her skipping Into tho South At lantic League wonld prove a balm for that hurt and bolster up this league as well. "FOOLI8H ATLANTA.” From The Montgomery Journal. The latest thing out In baseball Is the threat of some of the directors of the At lanta club to Join the South Atlantic League or form a new league, and they expect Birmingham to join them. Poor Atlanta; foolish Atlanta, This Is the silliest rot we have ever read. Just think of It. Chief Joyner says he would welcome a change. Lowry Arnold anys. "We cannot get Justice In the Southern League." I PRETTY GOOD MOVE. From The Birmingham Ledger. Percy Whiting has sounded-tho people of Birmingham and Atlanta with regard to tho •ehemo of pulling out of the Southern League and going Into the South Atlantic. The scheme will not probably be worked, but It would l)e a pretty good move. One of tbe Charleys down lu New Or leans writes a long article atmut Whltlug’s scheme to disrupt the Southern League. He throw’s mud all over Birmingham and At* f rata, and uses his usual muddy arguments, le snys It would be well If Birmingham nnd Atlnutn both got out. Well, If Birm ingham nnd Atlantn get out of the South ern League there would be two frog-eaters In New Orleans out of a Job. Neither tusu can do Anything else but write about base ball. nnd there w’ould be uo baseball to write about. Seriously nows Percy, your scheme Is not so very bad. A remedy Is needed. Atlanta and Birmingham would greatly strengthen I 1m* South Atlantic nnd get It In Class A. Something has Jo he done nnd we will have to stick together to get onr dues. good thingTor LEAGUE. From The Montgomery Advertiser. The Atlanta newspapers yesterday made a crack In regard to Atlanta ami Birming ham pulling out of the Southern and go ing Into the South Atlantic League next season. Seriously, this wonld probably l* the **ry l**st thing that could happen to the Southern league. With Mobile In tbe place of Atlanta and Chattanooga-^e%en ChnUnongn—ln the place of Birmingham, tbe Southern league wonld t»e tin- easurably better off. A change In the circuit is hardly a possi bility next year, but If ft should come It Is to t>e hoped that the Southern League will be rid of Atlanta and Birmingham.
