SUNDAY, SEPT. 6. Yager Thinks Old Sallie Leaguers Will Make Good A special to the Sporting News from Abe Yager, of the Brooklyn Ea gle, says that Tommy McMillan has already made good with the Super bas and wall bt carried as one of the leg'jiars" throughout next season When McMillan left the Scouts — the Jacksonville team —to report to Manager Donovan at Brooklyn he spent but two days with the big lea gue team before he was given the op portunity to get a chance to smell the powder of a big league game. Billy Maloney, the fast center field er but miserably weak hitter, was compelled to quit the game several days on account of illness. Little Tommy was shoved In to play center field and his work was highly satis factory and it should be remembered that Tommy McMillan was never an outfielder before. The little fellpw ia now one of the regular members of the squad al though Maloney has returned to the game and Tommy’s is warming the bench. According to the Brooklyn papers McMillan practices at short stop every afternoon and his lightning work is causing much comment front the Superba supporters. According to the dope furnished by Mr. Yager, the Eagle's sporting man, the Superbas will look quite different when they come to this city for spring practice next season. Many minor leagues are to be tried out and it is expected that new blood :nto the team will help matters wonderfully. AccordinfSto Yager's dope two for mer South Atlantic Leaguers will be regular members Of the infield. Mc- Millan is slated for the regular short stop position while “Humpty" Mc leaguers aret obe tried out and it is ox fielding and battiug game for the lo cals three seasons ago, is sLated to get the third corner, now being play ed by Tommy Sheehan. Jules Kustus last season with Au gusta is slated to fill Maloney's shoes in center field. Kustus will prob ably join the Superbas next week. With Rucker, Holmes and the above referred to players in the line-up it will be seen that Manager Patsy Donovan has great faith in the play ers who graduated from the swift South Atlantic league—Florida Time* Union.

EX-SALLIE LEAGUER, FOUGHT KELLUM Absolute proof that there is dis sension in the ranks of the Nash ville Volunteers was easily obtained yesterday at the ball park and also at the St. Charles hotel, at each of which places two of the Volunteer players met in affairs of fisticuffs. The players in question were pitch er Keilum and third base artist Mc- Elveen, both premier artists in their respective positions. Both men to day carry marks tc- show where each landed his fist on the other’s face. Kellum’s nose is black and blue and ! feels rather sore, despite steady ap plicants of ice and wet towels, while McElveen carries what is con: monly called a shaded lamp, that is, a black eye. Tne trouble started on the bench of the visitors during the first game yesterday, although it must be said, to the credit of both men and of the other men on the Nashville club, that there was no disturbance, the entiro affair being unknown to any of the big crovd in the grandstand. Keilum criticised McElveen for some alleged misplay In the second inning, calling him a "fat head" and asserting that McElveen did not j know his business. McElveen an swer in kind, and ihe lie passed, caus ing McElveen to place his clenched hand oa Kellum’s nose. Keilum tried to hit hack, hut a second blow landed on hts nose, whereupon the other | Nashville players separated the men, and Manager Bernhard laid down the law good and hard. After the last game yesterday, Mc- Elveen and Catcher Seabaugh were going to McElevren’s room at the St. Charles Hotel when they met Kei lum. and it Is stated that without any preliminary remarks «r motions, the pitcher placed a stinging blow in Mr- Elveen’s face, causing the eye to h-*-! come discolored. —New Orleans S'atc.'
