NEW ORLEANS POLICEMEN
ARE ROUGH ON JORDAN
Billy Smith haa written to Atlanta
’ about the ••phoney” hall outrage which
waa committed at New Orleans Friday,
and hla epistles are certainly warm.
"It waa the moat outrageous thing I
ever saw," he said, In one. The po
lice grabbed Otto Jordan after he land
ed the ball, and dragged him to the
club house. There they held him
while they telephoned for a patrol
wagon. I went In and asked them If
they meant to carry him to the sta
tfon house and In a patrol wagon, and
Charley Frank said: ‘Ves. let him go
that way/ So they carried him, In hla
baseball uniform, down to the police
station.'
The Atlanta team and tha Atlanta
people are Justly Incensed at siich
conduct, and they Join In hoping that
something will come of the Investiga
tion which President Joyner has prom
ised of the "live ball” question.
Couldn’t Remember Score
But He Sure Heard Things
Tracy, the office boy, took In
Saturday's game at Piedmont
park Saturday, and, according
to him. this Is what he saw:
Among the witnesses at the bull
game between the Are fighting aggre
gation'and the Athletic boys were Cup-
tain Joyner ancf James Archer. James
ft able to walk on one crutch and says
his foot will be well enough for him to
get Into the game next Monday after
noon when the Crackers .return from
their road trip. Although we miss
Archer behind the bat, Jack Kvers Is
doing fine work, and Is also butting at
a good clip.
dee! but Cap. Joyner roasted that
New Orleans * bunch Saturday as he
looked on at the game between the
Firemen and the Athletic boys. He
did not pay much attention to the
game, but was talking all the time
about Charley Frank and his dirty
work of playing bad ball.
“I will run this thing down If It
swamps the treasury. None of my
money Is too good to get the true dope
on those rubber balls that were used
In the Louisiana burg commonly called
New Orleans."
James Archer Is also pretty warm
about the way the team has been
treated on Its trip. When the boy who
was railing the score between Atlanta
und New Orleans said the score was
4 und 2 In favor of Atlantu, he said:
"I wish It was 42 and 2."
I did not pay much attention to the
game between the Hose Twlrlers and
Athletics, for I was giving too much
attention to what Cup. and Jim Archer
were saying, but anyhow the tire eat
ers came out at the long end of the
score.
