THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 8, 100G. FIGHT ON IN NATIONAL LEAGUE SPORTS Edited by PERCY H. WHITING ANOTHER PROMISED IN SOUTHERN RANSICK NOT DISCOURAGED SIGNS ERVE BECK AND WILL LET LOOSE MONEY TO GET A PEN WANT WINNER. ipectal to The Georgian. Augusts, (in.. Aug. 8.-The Tourist* bare fallen from the high point that they bare held for the Vntlre mnaon, mid now the Bavsnanh hunch hate gained the topmost round. Manager Itansli-k, ^however, says that he haa never fait more confident getting the |>entiant. and he declares that he will hate It. regardless of the cost. In order to strengthen the Augusta team Manager Unnalek secured the service* Beck, an cx-Houtliern leaguer, and made his first appearance on the grounds yesterday afternoon. He la not a very bright star, and will doqbtle** lie served pink slip In a few days. If he doca not •bow an Improvement. Walter Houtb, who la the Tourists' regular first sacker, has been on tho "cripple Hat" for the past month. The notice received In Augusta yesterday through the sporting columns of The Georgian. to tlie effect that the owners the Atlanta cltili were anxious to get the Houtb Atlantic league, was received with much delight, for It Is believed that with the addition of Atlanla and Blrnilng bam and with the class of the Mouth At' Ian tic being raised to "B." that the league will lie a much faster nud lietter league, The attendance In Augusta this year has lieen very nearly equal to that of the dtlea In the Southern longue, and In some In stances It has been much lietter than tbs average of the Southern longue towns where a lowing team Is playing. NEWS GANG IS SLAUGHTERED Amidst th« pounds of clanging am bulance gong* and the shrieks of ad miring multitude* The At lanta Georgian employee* handed defeat to The At lanta New*' hired men at Piedmont park Tuesday af . lemoonJ The »cnre waa 11 1 to I. The apectator* alone were Cap. Jarner an inspiring night. On the uuiplrwl. bleacher* wnn one lone man, the boxee were deserted, in the “for men only” place wore a few doten small boys, and In the grand stand were a score of admiring wives, sisters, sons, daughters and friends of the contest ants. But what they saw will long be remem bered. The Georgian etnfr played ball that would have made Con nie iMck'a brigade blush alcrud. Thompson had the apeed df a Matthewson, the curves of Waddell and the headwork of a Hahn. Hub Hud- dleeton did stunta be hind the bat that made Archer look like a lie. glnner. Press Huddle, nton at accond played ball that would force hint Into professional baseball If he weren't In politics—and Kid Harris! Well, the kid wns all to tho mustard! HI* Holding had Its fttults, but on the coaching line he .was the works. 1 The Newsies were never In the hunt. In the fifth Inning they took down five runs, but that ilia them little good, for The aeon, glnns cut off the supply ana nothing happened thereafter. Walter Taylor, of The Jour nal, who had agreed to umpire, lost hi* nerve at the critical Inoment and Chief Joyner wns pressed Into service. The chief umpire! a great game and gave general satlafaction. One Incident marred the game. Just at the cloae Lte Smith, who waa doing the Jim Fox stunt on first, made a desperate atab at a wide one toward the bag and a finger on his right hand was broken. . Some Juvenile Me- Gsnn was called lit to finish the game and the next man up betted to him and the gnmo ended with a pretty double. The News has challenged for Our another game, but It la proba- twirier, ble that they will be required to go out and “get them a rep. utatlnn” before being given another chance.

SOUTHERN LEAGUE NOW ON VERGE OF LARGE AND VERY WARM FIGHT Not since the troublesome days back In 1902 hns the Southern league been lu such a critical condition and as near a large and entertaining free.fight as It Is right now. Three separate fights nr* ready to start In the Southern League. For one thing, Atlanta Is willing to drop out of the Southern and go to the South Atlantic Isesgue, carrying Birmingham with her, provided the Iron City Is willing. Now cornea the. rumor from. Mlireveport that a definite plan la ludng worked out to oust Shreveport and Little Rock from the Houtbern League sad take on two other cities. Tho third complication Is the warm fight which (s on In Atlanta and Birmingham to oust President Knrsnnugh from his posi tion. With all these things stirring, the pros pect* for. warm doings were never better In the Southern. Whether or not anything will come of the plan for transferring Atlanta from the Southern League to the Mouth Atlantic time will tell. But one thing te perfectly certain: At lanta and Birmingham are thoroughly tick of the domination of the league by New Orleans forces, under the leadership of Charley Frank, a ad would welcome any one of the three poeelldlltles for relief. If Hhreve|K>rt nml Little Rock are knock in! out of the league the majority of That Hatchman lu Houtheni League meetings Is gone, for the present at looat. And un doubtedly their tln-canntg would help the league. Hhreveport since the beginning and Lit tie Rock for at least three years have been the "dead ones" of the league. Practically every team which goes to those towns loses money. Ouce In n doxen time*, perhaps, a team draws down more than the guarantee. Jlut usually the manager has to accept the little oh! 175 anil lose the difference between tluit nml hi* expense*. Iiotli Hhreveport and Little Rock are so decidedly remote that It la necessary to burn up thousands of dollars a year In ear fare to get tho teams over to these two little towua. Rui there Is little us#* In thrashing over thl* matter again. It haa loeen polnteil out a thousand times in the last three year* why Hhreveport and Little Rock abould lie put ont of the league, and atilt the league haa pcnduted lu nllowlug them to retain their frauchl*ea. Now that It Is necessary to do something to break up Charley Frank’* hold on the league, however, the cbnin*e* that Hhreve- ptirt and IJttle Hock will get the pluk slip are brighter than ever loefere. It I* presumed that If Little Hock dnip* ont of the league Brealdent Krtvannugh will not hold office again. It I* the*writer'* Impression that the judge is on iword that he will not serve the leagtm If Little Hock drop* out—but thl* may lie a mistake. Unquestionably then* I* a fight on Jndge Karanatigb In Atlanta and Birmingham, and It iiiuy epo! lu hi* defeat, pruvideol he decided to run again. In any evept. things are likely to happen between the present and the time of the Stmt hern I**ngne meting, nml It 1* hard to any what will cotne ont of tin* shake up. The following I* a story, presumably am plified by T. O. Mcarbroukh. of the Mein report sent by tha Commercial's corre spondent with the team: "No very great aurprlae will !»e occasion ed here. should n rebellion occur In the ranks of the 8oiithcrn League by tho (line of the next annual meeting of the Southern league. Hhreveport fnna have already beard that sewsslon Is. likely to occur on tho part of one or two members of the so- called Eastern circuit of the eight-club chnln that has held Intact since the forma tion of the present organization, which witnessed the forfeiture of t'hattnuoogu'a franchise during the stormy aftermath of the Ht. Vralu-Chnrley Fra nk-Ca rut hers Ew ing litigation In 1908. According to the news received over the wireless here At- Inntn and Birmingham will favor the elim ination of 8hreve|Mirt and Little Roek nml the substitution of Clmttnuooga and Sa vannah, or of two other desirable cities east of the Mississippi. The long Jump and the small dttendance nt Little Rock and here furnishes the most reasonable foundation for complaint nt the present Hoiitheru Iscague in up. and now since Bir mingham and Atlanta, together with Mem phis, are turning oat tka largest audlencea of the seoaon, which means that the me trbpolls of the circuit—New Orleans- taken n hack seat as the financial ‘hack- l»one' of the longue, the easterners * are displaying thorough Independence and Imagine they are entitled to more tbnn ordinary consideration. Ou top of tho nm nouncement of the protmble fight that will confront Hhreveport and Little "Rock to hold their places lu the circuit Is* a thor ough and pialu plot to beat l*realdeut Kav- aiiaugh for the presidency at the ne%t election. With Kavannugh local i»cop!e ns well as those nil orer the circuit wlio un derstand the situation thoroughly appre ciate that his txmuectlon 'with baseball Is that of the 'office seeking the mon.' The opposition to the Arkansan conics from Iilniilngham and Atlnnts, nml according to advices received here wns borfi from re marks to enthusiastic mefiibers of the press In the Iron City by Manager Vaughan and other officials there who desire the over throw of the present government probably In hopes of placing on the throne a weak er nml less able official who can be han dled for personal gains." PELICANS PASS BURGLARS AND GO AFTER BARONS The scuffle between Memphis and New Orleans for second ptnee la quite amusing ,thea»* days, especially because of the cur rent belief that Memphis Is not any too anxious to finish ahead of the Pelicans lu the race. However It happened. New Orleans managed to pull up ahead of the Burglars* Tuimdtiy, though their lead la only one of .002. However, from now ou It will uot loe ntirprislug to see the Pelicans stay In front of Babb's team, no matter where the Peli can* may roam, be It far up or low down. No other chnugea lu the league standing wen* noteil ns n result of Tucmlny'* game. Atlanta settled a.bit as a result of Tuea- tlny's double-header ami lUrmtugUam soared correspondingly. Little Rock 1* still last by. a large ma jority. \Yken the New Orleans team arts In IJt tle Rock Presilient Knvauaugti made a fur ther Investigation of the Rndteusteln case. He has stated that .the Incident has not loeen dosed yet, sod that further Investiga tion will loo made when New Orleans la next In Metuphla. Perhaps by the end of the aeason. when It will make no difference to Charley Frank'* pennant chances, Brdteustefn will l»e suspended fi»r a week or ten dnya. Billy Hmlth wa» smiling everywhere. Billy Was saved two woeful defeats.—Birming ham l-edger. Judged by Tuesday's effort, guess b* was saved on* or two. Can't tell, thongb. Johnny Buggnu wif Nashville (brew It Into Montgomery Tuesday. Mullaney used Max Pretty tough to loao that double-header. However, It's all lo the'day's work. Let's grin nud bear It. Can't win all of them, especially with a crippled team. Atlanta tuny not win the pennant this year, but It U going to be one of the worst caaea of "uearly" that was ever jmted In these parts. Try*to console yourself writh thinking how tickled they nre down lu Blrmlughaui over heattug Atlanta. With nil their prutesta- ttut** of friendship, they would rather beat Atlanta than nny team In the league. When Billy Hmlth received the official no tification that hi* suspension was raised he took a load whoop.
