Augusta, tin.. Auk. 8.—The Tourists bare
fallen from the high point that they hare
held for the entire aennnn, and now the
Savannah bunch have (rained the topmoat
round. Manager ltanaick. however, aaya
thnt he haa never felt more confident of
getting the pennant, hud he declares that
he will hove It, regardless of the coat
In order to atrcngtheu the Augusta team
Manager Ranalok secured the aervlcea of
Berk, an ex-Southern Leaguer, and
made hla first appearance on the grounda
yesterday afternoon. He Is, not a very
bright atar, and will doubtless he nerved
pink slip In a few days. If lie does not
ahow an improvement. Walter South, who
la the Tourists' regular first aacker, haa
been on the “cripple Hat” for the paat
month.
The notice received In Augusta yesterday
through the sporting columns of The
Georgian, to the effect that the owners of
the Atlanta club were anxious to get lu
the South Atlantic League, was received
with much delight, for It Is liellevVd tbut
with the addition of Atlanta and nirmlng*
ham and with the class of the South At
lantlc lielng raised to "B." thnf the league
will be n much faster and lad ter league.
The attendance In Augnatn this year has
been very nearly equal to that of the cities
In the Southern longue, and In some III
stances It his Iwen much better than the
average of the* Southern League towns
where a losing team la playing.
NEWS GANG IS
SLAUGHTERED
Amldat the sound, of clanging am

miring multitudes The At

handed defeat to The At
lanta News' hired men at
Piedmont park Tueaday af-
. temoon. The score was U
’ to I.
The spectators alone were
Cap! Jomcr nn Inspiring sight. On the
umpired, bleachers was one lone mail,
the boars were deserted, In
the “for men only” place were a few
dosen small boys, and In the_ grand
stand were a score of
admiring wives, sisters,
sons, daughters and
friends of the contest
ants.
nut what they saw
will long be remem
bered. The Georgian
staff played ball that
would have made Con
nie Mark's brigade
blush aloud. Thompson
had the apeed of a
Mattbewson, the curves of Waddell and
the headwork of a Hahn. Hub Hud.
dleston did stunta be
hind the bat that made
Archer look like a he

ball that would force
him Into professional
baseball If he weren't

Harris! Wall, the kid
was all to the mustard!
His fielding had
faults, hut on the
line he was the works.
Vew.lea were never In the hunt.
In the fifth Inning they took M
down live runs, but that did
them little good, for The Geor
gians cut off the supply and
nothing happened thereafter.
Walter Taylor, of The Jour-
nal, who had agreed to umpire,
lost his nerve nt the critical
moment and Chief Joyner was
pressed Into service. The chief hresks
umpired a great game and gave' Hager,
general satisfaction.
One Incident marred the game. Just
at the close Lee Smith, who was doing
the Jim Kox stunt on first,
• made a desperate stab at a
(PA. wide one toward the bag and a
SN.\ linger on his right hand whs

the game and the next mnn up
batted to him and the game

to go out and “get them a rep

CRIPPLED AND DISCOURAGED
FIRECRACKERS FIGHT HARD,
BUT MEET DEFEAT.
Special to The Georgian.
Birmingham, Ala., Aug. 2.—The Atlanta
team fought bravely for the double-header
here Tuesday afternoon, but dropped both
games by scores of 2 to L
Both teams played good ball, and the vic
tory of the home club was by just as nar
row a margin as the scores would Indicate.
The Crackers played real ball, but the ad
vantage of home grounds, home rooters and
a somewhat disfigured team was enough
to give the games to the Barons.
Hughes and Wilhelm opposed each other
In the opener, and the Atlanta man had s
shade the better of It on hits.
In the second Childs went against Sallee
and the local mnn was a winner all the
way.

SOUTHERN LEAGUE NOW ON VERGE
OF LARGE AND VERY WARM FIGHT
Not since the troublesome days back In
1902 has the Houthern League been In such
a critical condition and as near a large
and * entertaining free fight as It is right
now.
Three separate fights are ready to start
In the Houthern League.
For one thing, Atlanta Is willing to drop
out of the Houthern aud go to the Smith
Atlantic League, carrying Birmingham with
her, provided the Iron City Is willing.
Now comes the rumor from Khreveport
that a definite plan Is »H»lng worked out to
oust Hhreveport arid Little Rock from tho
Houthern league and take on two other
cities.
The third complication Is the warm fight
Which Is on In Atlanta and Birmingham to
oust President Ksvsnsngh from his post
tiou.
With all these things stirring, the pros
pects for warm doings were never better
lu the Houthern.
Whether or not anything will come of
the plan for transferring Atlanta from the
Houthern League to foe Houth Atlantic time
will tell.
But one thing Is perfectly certain: At
lantn and Birmingham are thoroughly sick
of the domination of the league by New
Orleans forces, under the leadership of
Charley Frank, and would welcome any
of the three possibilities for relief.
If Hhreveport and Little Rock are knock
ed out of the league the majority of That
Dutchman In Houthern league meetings Is
gone, for the preseut at least. And un
douhtedly their tln-cannlg would help the
league.
Hhreveport since the beginning and Lit
tle Hock for at 'least three years have been
the “dead ones” of tho league. Practically
every team which goes to those towns lu
money. Once In a dosen times, perhaps, a
team draws down more than the guarantee.
Rut usually the manager has to accept the
little old 375 and lose the difference between
that aud his expenses. *
Both Hhreveport and Little Rock ire so
ilectdedty remote thst It Is necessary to
Imm up thousands of dollars a year In car
fare to get the teams over to these two
little towns.
But there Is little use In thrashing over
this matter stain. It has been pointed out
a Jhousam! times In tbe last three years
why Hhivceport and IJttle Mock should lie
put out of the league, and still the league
has persisted In allowing them to retatu
their frsnehisea.
Now that It Is necessary to do something
to break up Charley Frank's bold ou the
league, however, the chnnees that Hhreve
port and Little Rock will get tbe pluk slip
are brighter than ever before.
It Is presumed that If Little Rock drops
out of tho league President Ksvanaugh will
not hold office again. It Is the writer's
Impression that the judge Is on record that
he will not serve the league If IJttle Rock
drops out-hut this may In* s mistake.
Unquestionably there Is a fight on Judge
Ksvsusugh lu Atlanta and Birmingham,
and It may end In his defeat, provided be
decided to run again.
In any event, things are likely to happen
tietvreen the present and the time of the
Houthern longue meting.* and It Is ban) to
say what will cans® out of the shake-up.'
-The following Is a story, presumably am
plified by T. G. Hesrbnmgh, of the Mem
phis Commercial Appeal, from tbe skeleton
report sent by the Commercial's corre
spondent with the team:
"No very great surprise will he occasion
ed here should a rebellion occur In the
rauks of the Houthern League by the time
of the next annual meeting of the Houthern
League. Hhreveport fans have already
heard that secession Is likely to occur ou
the part of one or two memtora of the so-
called Eastern circuit of the right-dub
chain thnt has held Intact since the forma
tion of the present organisation, which
witnessed the forfeiture of Chattanooga's
franchise during the stormy aftermath of
the Ht. Vraln-Cbarley Frank-Caruthers Ew
ing litigation In 1902. According to the
news received over the wireless here At
lanta and Birmingham will favor tbe elim
ination of Hhreveport and Little Rock and
the substitution of Chnttsnooga and Ha
va nnnh, or of two other desirable cities
east of the Mississippi. The long jump
and the small attendance nt IJttle Rock
and here furnishes the most reasonable
foundation for complaint at the present
Houthern Leaf in* map, and now since Bir
mingham and Atlanta, together with Mijn*
phis, aro turning out tbe largest audiences
of the season, which tpeons that the me
tropolis of the -circuit—New Orleans—has
taken n back seat as the financial 'back
bone' of the longue, tho easterners are
displaying thorough independence nnd
Imagine they are entitled to morp than
ordinary ronilderntlon. On top of the an
nouncement of the probable fight that will
confront 8hreveport and Little Hock to
bold tbelr places In tbe circuit Is a-tbor*
ougb and plain plot to beat President‘Kar*
annugh for tho presidency at tbe next
election. With KnvanHUgh local people as
well as those nil over the circuit who un
derstand the situation thoroughly appre
ciate that his conuectiou with baseball
Is that of the ‘office seeking the man.' Tbe
opposition to the Arkansan comes from
Birmingham nml Atlanta, and according
to advices received here was'born from re
marks to enthusiastic memtwra of tho press
In the Iron City by Manager Vaughan and
other officials there who desire the over
throw' of the present government prolmbly
In hopes of placing on tbe throne a weak
er and leas able official who can be han
dled for personal gains.” . ’ t

PELICANS PASS BURGLARS
AND GO AFTER BARONS
SK. l
The scuffle between Memphis and New
Orleans for second place Is quite amusing
these days, especially because of the cur
rent belief that Memphis Is not any too
anxious to finish ahead of tbe Pelicans In
the race.
However It happened. New Orleans
managed to poll up ahead of tbe Burglars
Tuesday, though their lead la only one of
.002. However, from now on It will not be
surprising to see tbe Pelicans stay In front
of Babb's team, no that ter where the Pell-
ins may roam, be It far up or low down.
No other changes In the league standlug
were noted ns a result of Tuesday's game.
Atlanta nettled a bit ns a result of Tues
day’s double header and Birmingham soared
correspondingly. ‘ <
Little Rock Is still last by a large ma
jority.
When the New Orleans team was In Lit
tle Rock President Kavansugh made s fur
ther Investigation of the Rreltensteln case,
lie lias stated that the Incident has not
l**en closed yet, aud that further Investlga-
wlll l*e made when New Orleans Is
next In Memphis. * .
Perhaps by the i>nd of the season, when
It wUI make no difference to Charley
Frank's pennant chances. Brrltenstetn will
be suspended for n week or ten days.
Billy Hniltb was smiling everywhere. BUly
was saved two woefst defests.-Illrn»Ing
ham 1-edger.
Judged by Tuesday's effort, guess he wss
saved one or two. Can't tell, though.
Johnny Duggan of Nsohville threw It luto
Montgomery Tnesdajr, MsIUney used Max
well and Malar key. but be could not save bttnself made two three-baggers.
Pretty tofigh to lose that double-header.
However, It's all In the dny’t work. Let’s
grin and bear It.
Can't win sit of them, especially with s
crippled team.
Atlanta may not win the pennant this
year, but It Is going to be one of tbe
worst esses of "nearly” that was ever
noted lu these parts.
Try to ccgisole yourself with thinking bow
tickled they are down In Birmingham over
beating Atlanta. With aU their protesta
tions of friendship, they would rather beat
Atlanta than any team In the league.
When Billy Hudth received the official no
tification that bis suspension was raised he
took a loud whoop. Hudth Is all right, and
the fans wish him success.—Birmingham
Ledger.
Kindly thank the fans In oar behalf.
Anyway, after today's misery the Crack
ers go on to Nashville. Guess maybe the
Billy Hmlthltes can win a couple up there.
And then home agate for that awful series
with Birmingham.
Matty suggested that three games be
played today, beginning at 6 J9 o'clock this
morning and continuing until dinner. A
short recess be taken then and the battle
to proceed In tbe afternoon until darkness
puts an end to the conflict.—Birmingham
larger.
