SCHWARTZ IS REINSTATED AND HICKMAN IS RELEASED Report That Mullaney Has Signed Bumum Proves Erroneous—Atlanta’s Deal For Schwartz Off—Smith After DeArmond. Manajr*r MuJJmb&j, of tbe Montgomery train, baa reinstated Schwartz, hla atar aec* on<l Iwacraan, who haa t**on under auapen* alon, and haa released Hickman, who haa been playing aecond base. Thla puta an end to Manager Smith** deni for the. Montgomery Jnfielder. Manager Hmltb haa had wires out for DeArmond of late, but baa not landed him yet, nor ara tbe prospects, rery good. The report that Burnum h|d been signed by Manager Mullaney prored erronous. "I hare not signed Burnum, though I may,'* said Manager Mullaney. "I don't think he la In shape, or I would land him. I am out for another pitcher and. may get one before I return home. Burnum came to me and asked me to gtre him a trial, which I aeid J rrouM do, although I told him I would not sign him until he showed me that he was In shape to play ball. And I don't think he la In shape. So I guesa that deal will not go through." The Cordele management la after George Stinson, tbe ontflelder released by Manager Smith. It la doubtful If Stinson la In shape to play anywhere, however. He Is In bad physical condition now and may be out of tbe game for some time. Manager Smith waa delighted with the good condition Archer prored to be In, and hopes that Jlminy will be able to go right along now and play practically every game. Atlanta's star catcher seems little tbe worse for hla accident, and Is hobbling around lo good style. STATE LEAGUE PRESIDENT ASKED TO GIVE UP JOB Special to Tbe Georgian.
