BASEBALL ASSOCIATION
TO HOLD ANNUAL MEETING
The annual meeting of the Atlanta
Baseball Association will be held Tues
day night. At this meeting officers will
be elected for the enduing year und
the financial report of the association
Will be heard.
“Our receipts this year were better
than last," said President Joyner Tues
day morning. "Secretary Ethridge Is
preparing the figures and I have not
seen them yet, but there Is no doubt
about It. I think that It will prove the
best year In the history of the club, but
I am not sure. Anyway it has been
prosperous and satisfactory In every
thing except that we did not win the
pennant.
“At the meeting tonight we will dis
cuss many questions In regard to the
policy for next year. For one thing,
we will decide where the local club will
stand at the annual meeting of the
League on the question of the limit of
l players and salary. Personally, J favor
a $3,000 limit, lived up to by every
team In the League and an unlimited
number of players. Then a team can
get a small number of high-priced
men or a large number of cheap men
und work It out for themselves."
In speaking of the new grand stand
which will bo built by the Georgia
Hallway nnd Electric Company and
leased to the Atlanta Baseball Associa
tion Chief Joyner said:
"This Is going to be one of the finest
stands that money enn buy. We are
going to try to give our patrons all the
comforts of a first-class theater. We
shall have 800 opera chairs, which will
be reserved. People can buy their seats
In advance and be sure of getting them
when they come to the game, I do not
know exactly the number of reserved
seats there will be, but I do know that
the smoker will lit* 225 feet long,
against 120 In the old stand. The en
tire seating capacity of the plant will
be 6,100."
Atlanta Must Prove Case,
Says President Kavanaugh
William Kavanaugh. president of the
Southern League, after spending a fe
hours In llfrmfnghain Saturday, loft
Saturday night for Memphis and Little
Rock, says The Birmingham N«
While In the city he commented at
length on the season Just closed.
"It was a great success from a flnan
dal as well as from a sporting stand
point," said the judge. "It is true,** I
continued, "that many distfirbanc
arose which caused some 111 feeling
among some managers of the various
clubs, but It Is very probable that
nothing of a serious nature will result.
"Yes, I expect to Investigate every
complaint made this season and the
Atlanta association, which has charged
me with partisanship and other things,
will be made to show wherein I hava
committed these acts.
"The regular meeting of the league
will be held In this city on the 15th of
December and 1 expect many matters
of an Interesting nature to come up."
When asked about the salary and
player limit. President Kavanaugh was
somewhat reticent In his expressions.
"That matter Is up to the league," said
he, "that Is, the salary limit proposi
tion. As to the player limit, the league
has nothing on earth to do with that.
That matter Is fixed by the laws of
baseball and the limit can not be tam
pered with by any league officials.
Fourteen men will be the limit as'long
as the league Is In Glass A."
Judge Kavanaugh when asked If he
would be a candidate for re-election,
stated that at no time was he ever a
candidate for the position. He Inti
mated by this piny on words that while
he will not announce as a candidate, he
will take the office If It Is tendered him
by the league directors.
After talking of the general occur
rences In the league this season. Presi
dent Kavnnaugh expressed himself rel
ative* to the recent trouble In Atlanta In
which Otto Jordan attached the gate
receipts while the New Orleans club
was in the city. He said Frank acted
mighty well In that matter and he gave
In quite considerably. "By all the laws
of baseball," said the Judge, "Frank
could have refused to play the games
In which the receipts were tied up. He
could have taken Ills team off the field
and his action would have been upheld
by the laws of baseball. I am glad,
however, that the matter was settled In
an amicable manner and hope no more
will arise In the future."
e complimented the local players
very highly on their conduct on the
field this season anil added that he was
glad to he able to say such of the pen
nant winners. He expressed himself as
being pleased that Birmingham won
the rag.

The weekly *hoot of the Atlnntn Gun

Harney Worthen led the shooters,
broke 138 out of 150 targets. Evans shot
steadily, scoring 127. Jones started badly

more smoothly, and broke u L?t nnd 22

The scores follow:
NAME— TA It GETS-
New hull parks will he nil the rnge In
the Hotithern League next year.
The Atlanta team will, of course, move
next spring Into the new park nt Ponce
DeLeon. This will undoubtedly be the
finest baseball plant In the Hnuth. though
New Orleans boasts that their new grand
stand will he about the finest In the busi
ness.
The New Orleans nssoolntlon was not
foolish about having n new park next
year, but the former owner of the old
one very carelessly sold If, and the new
owners dhl not can* about Charley Frank
and his team ns tenants.
Ho there will Ik* n new ball ground In
the Crescent City when the next season
opens.
These are the two certainties.
Nashville Is also talking of it new |>nrk,
but the plans for one are In a most nebu
lous state. A new stand Is needed, but
whether anytmdy will build a new stand for
n losing proposition like the Nashville team
Is another matter.
The Memphis team will play next year
tit lied Elm. but there will* be u new
stand. President Coleman, of the Mem
phis club, has visited several northern
cltlea looking for Ideas for his new stand,
and the Memphis association promises n
new plant for next aprlug which will 1k»
the wonder of the league. Undoubtedly, It
will be a nice stand. The Memphis asso
ciation has made money this year, and
can afford an expensive park.
Hhreveport, the old stand will be
again, but several changes nml nddl-
111 be made, and the buildings on
the diamond will Ik* put In first-class con
dition. The Shreveport team has not made
any money to speak of this year, but the
barkers of the club are game losera, and
will try again next year, with a supreme
confidence Hint the Hhreveport club will
pay expenses If It Is only near enough
to the fop.
The returns are not In yet on the build
ing proposition from Hlrmlnghiim, Mont
gomery and l.lttlo Hock, though there nre
rumors that the Montgomery team will piny

to an end after 42 rounds the exclama
tion on all sides was:
"What a mighty long battle It was."
But It had yet many rounds to go be
fore reaching the record. Ring statis
tics contain the records of several long
er battles, the most notable among
them being the famous contest In Ches
hire, England. In 1825, when Jack Jones
beat Patsy Tunney in 276 rounds.
The longest bare knuckle fight re
corded In England occurred In 1849, be
tween Mike Madden and Bill Hayes,
lasting six hour* and three minutes.
America's longest bare knuckle tight,
four hours and 2«> minutes, was fought
between J. Fitzpatrick and Jam
O'Neill at Berwick. Me., I860.
The longest bare knuckle fight ofi
record took place In Australia, near
Melbourne, In 1855, when James Kelly
nnd Jonathan Smith fought six hours
and 15 minutes.
A. Bowen and J. Burke drew nt New
Orleans In 1893, after fighting seven
hours und 19 minutes, going 110

Jeffries' longest fight was 25 rounds,
when he won from Sharkey, In 185*9. lie

Ante-Season Gloom Thick
At Tech Football Field
Football practice continues nt Tech, no
matter whnt the weather Is; but prospects
there continue pretty poor.
Most of the reports which come out are
tinged with the conventional ante-season
gloom and It Is Impossible to get any good
line on the real conditions owing to the
fact that nil practice work Is being done In
secret.
\{*ork for the next week or two will con
tinue very light, though thp comparatively
cool weather 1ms rendered practice more
comfortable than usual ut this time of year.
With a practice game September 29 tho
team will have to do a little hardening In
side of the next ten days, but as the first
gnine will be an easy one It Is doubtful
If any extensive preparations will bo made
for It.
TOURNAMENT IS POSTPONED
The tournament for the Trawlck
cup, which was to have been started
Tuesday afternoon, has been postponed
until Wednesday afternoon. This was
made necessary because of the heavy
rain, which has made the new course
practically unpl«T>dble.
It Is probable that three "eights” will
be qualified, and In this case the tour
nament can be run off and finished by
Saturday. In case the weather con
tinues had the qualifying round may
go over to Thursday.

dope sheets for the line-ups of the Atlanta

Both teams went out for a record. It was

ie Southern League by the large number
i»f fast games played. Hartley was pitch-

This Is unusual. The judge has usu

each season during his term of serv
