Kr railroad fare and over S4O hotel bill. Manager Palmer couldn't catch onto Manager Hirsch’s financial figures. Man ager Birsch said he was out—sloo—and out on a foul. Be waa willing, be said to make the home run at his own ex penae provided the fare to Atlanta and the Kimball bills were paid. Added to this little episode row over the game and the demand that some of the spectators made for their money. They declared they had paid good money to see good ball and they witnessed a walking match around the bases and a wild throw by an Atlanta player. gTATBMHKT FROM MANAGER PALMRR.

I bars done nothing dishonest and have aotad in good faith. Our crowds have been ridiouluutly imall and we Itst money.” tositiox. Manager Birsch was seen at the Kim ball house. He said he had brought 11 men to Atlanta on a telegram from Pal mer, who agreed to pay all expenses and give half the gate receips. Uirach produced the telegram and said: '•1 acted on this. I have paid out stso for railroad fare to get here and will hare to pay (bat amount to get bach to Brunswhfkr. Jfy expenaea er SIOO. I have agreed to tikn Ahetare here and the hotel bill and pay my own way back home. A* to Palmer saying he meant to pay my expenses only anould it rain, why, I honestly behave if it had rained today our crowd of spectators would have been larger, for some people might have gone there to get out of the shower. "1 believe Palmer intend, and to swindle me and I have sworn out a warrant. If he or his friends will pay what I aik, and it is in reason, I will withdraw the warrant. WHAT rOSTSB THINKS ABOTT IT. F. U. Foster, who has been in tbe oity about three weeks trying to form a southern league and whose .name waa mentioned by Palmer, waa seen and asked wbat be thought of the af fair, Herepllad: “ I know very little about it. I tried to form a league and failed. Palmar took bold of the olub for Atlanta and he ia the only person known In the oontraot wltb tbe Brunsvriok team, I don't think Palmer knows rnueb about ba ebtll matters, Taia morn ing be sent word to Mr. Hirscb tbat be (Hirscb) mast turnieb tbe ball* for this afterncou’s gute. X don’t think be m ant to do anything that waa criminal. He is honest, 1 believe but be justj doesn’t know how to act in each matters. In my opinion tbe affair baa grown out of misunder standing wbiob will doubtless be satirfictorlly arranged right away. SHIPPING REPORT. aily by Oayt. Otto J dunums Port of Bruas .iok, Aug 11, 1900.
