Thla puts an end to Manner Hmlth'* deni for the Montgomery Inflelder. Manager Smith baa hnU wlrea out for HeArmoud of late, hut bna not lauded him yet. nor are the proapecta eery good. The report that Burn urn hail tieen algned l.y Manager Mullaiic.v proved erronoua. "1 hare not algited Burnum, though I may,” •aid Manager MuIIaney. “I don’t think he la In abape, or I would land him. I am out for nnother pitcher and may get one liefore I return home. Burnum came to me mid naked me to give hliu a trial, i which I an Id I would do, although I told him I would not algn him until he ahowed me that he wae In abape to play hell. And I don't think he la In ahnpe. Ho I gueaa that deal will not go through.” The Cordcle management la after George Htluaon, the outfielder relenaed by Manager Hintth. It la doubtful If HtlnaQn la In abape to play anywhere, however. He la In bad pbyalcnl condition now and may be out of the game for aome time.

With such organisation* ns the Trolley League of Ht. leOiil*. the City League of Memphis, or nuy one of the several ama teur leagues In New Orleans aa model* a great organisation could l*» secured.

Hard luck not to be aide to play Monday. The Crackers need all the games they can get—and these affalra at home with the Kaatern teams ought to bo tho easiest yet. It la hnrd luck that Manager MuIIaney did not see the- “live ball” now In hla pjMoselon taken from the New Orleans field. If he could swear that the twill was "rung In” by Charley Frank his affidavit to that effect would make Interesting read ing over at headquarters In Little Hock. Of course. It la morally certain that Frank did "ring lu” that Identical ball. It Is doubtful If even tho Hutchmsn would try to deny that. ”1 look more like an nnarchlat than a tun linger.” aald Manager MuIIaney when he hit the Aragon Monday. "This managing business Is not sll I used to think It was. The manager always gets the worst of everything. Coining over here, for exam ple. I drew the only upper berth In the ear. I guess the boys put It up swipe all the lower*. But I bad It on them, for they could not any of them sleep, nnd they spent most of the night roaming around the car, yelling for wnter. brought such a thirst on hoard that we emptied Imlli cinder* In about an hour, nnd from that time on It was a fight for water all the way to Atlanta.” What chance has poor old Little Book against New Orleans? Sot much, be feared. Monday the IVIIcaus put h shut-out to their credit. Guest* let his old teammates down with a couple of bits. Birmingham won a remarkable game from Nashville Monday.

That was the one which threw his limps. Jokey At*. The combina tion wna too thtich for Ata's lisp. The nntl spit ball crank* will undoubtedly lie crestfallen fiver the fact that Cheshro Is now hitching good ball. Monday he put a two-lilt game against Washington to his credit. Rube Waddell won a game yesterday, but It took good bitting on the part of his teninmntes to do It. lie nnd Dliieeu, tho optioned him. allowed ? hits each. Cleveland trimmed Detroit Momlay, and RAIN FELL SO GAME WAS OFF J. PLUVIUS PUT PLANS OF B SMITH AND D. MULLANEY ALL TO THE BAD. No ball game was played at Piedmont park Monday. When the time came for the stacklog-up of Atlanta and Montgomery the gentle rain waa drlsalfng downward In large golia and the oo|| of the diamond wna aoon reduced to a line sticky consistency which made It gTeat for mud-plea and podr for baseball. For the conventional thirty minutes fans and teams hnng around the grand stand and then the game wna called off and the crowd turned sadly homeward. * RAIN WON!

Kd. Kennedy, a prominent business man, manager of the team. The local associa tion will take chnrge of the team Thursday.

The trouble In NaahvlUe la “too much Fisher.” This man started from nowhere and with the aid of Charley Frank nud other men put a team In Nnabvllle. lie had two pennant wlnnera In succession and made money. With this money he acquired a majority of stock lu the Nashville com pany and the controlling ownership In the Athletic park diamond. Then he sat down nnd proceeded to let his graft run to seed. By cheap methods he has brought baseball In NaahvlUe Into dlerepnte and the attendance has fallen away until there la llttlo left. Heveral attempts have been made to re- organise the Nashville association and put It on *a better basis, but Fisher refuses to withdraw- and as long as he Is mixed up with It the better element la disinclined to go Into the thing. , And there the matter stands.
