r at the mouth over certa:n legislation accom-
.';sh.t there. and the result Of their disappont
-rent is tie publication II tue Boston Herald OF
ao,,1 column Of fault-fndluc with, and abuse OF
~. rue and all its belongings. According t,
~. article there was not solitary action Of th
s..,,ioc from beginning to end with which faui
o,d mt be found, and the important acts OF leeIs
,.,;o, are taken M setiatim ana denounced Will
~ the rieo1 OF which the ample resources Of til,
English language will allow.
:The 5g-ccut tariff, which WAS adopted by unnnl.
,ons rote is the first point OF attack. After stat
;nc that there was movement BY Buffalo, Cleyo.
,.nd Syracuse. and Troy to reduce the rate Of aa.
,Issjon-st least in those cises-io 35 cents it I,
,,leeed that the scheme failed because the repre-
sontatircs OF those Cluba at the League mecrin:
u3;d not stand up in their boots. and h4vina
ssmapded it, insist upon it." This st5le OF reas-
ming is very pretty, ana reasonably effective, pro-
rdet there slight foundation OF truth for it to
r+.t cpon but in the present case there is not.
vot = solitary deleCate had. IN argument 10 make
or pIea to offer IN behalf OF :5-cent tariff, and
n least two Of the Clubs quoted by the Boston
n,ner a being In favor OF such re-
duc,ion we're strongly opposed to it flom
,he start- And, further than this, hid
sny Of them been disposed to aak for such a
change they would have had no right to do SO,
x;nce when they were admitted to the League, it
x,s viii the distinct understanding that so 0-ceat
tariff Vas low enough. The assertion thar the
agreement binding all the clubs to charge 50 cents
N every sdnlt person who witnessed League games
v.s not IS charged, - the work Of Chicago and
fjucluua1i.' Ii was the unanimous action Of the
meeting, and a very sensible one at that.
Tbs se-estah'iaa,neut OF the foul Lound catch
was another source Of great pain to the Boston
folks. and their organ grinds ont dismal tune
coneeIring it. 1t s' argued that many OF the outs
heretofore made on foul bounds would have been
,asde, If required, on tho hy. This is,
to certain extent, true, but it is equally
certain that many outs car be made when the foul
bound is jn force that could not were it abolished
NOBODY will deny that by ab0:lshinr the foul
bound th* game would be heightened. While THE
1;.srNE 'favors m increase of batting, it must
not be secured BY 1enSthcning the ga1lc.
Having disposed OF these matters, the Utru!I
opens uy the old sore about Hurry Wright and, N
s5ircd by The Eostou Club, it IL given In full:
1.-The amend Lent To the Constitution proh,bit-
inc aaanactrs ana scorers from occurying seats
passage Al Cleveland owing to constitutional Oh
lection, IVES renewed at Buffalo. and became
law owing 10 two OF the delegates stultifying
themselves y BY going back upon. their former
recoras- This action q direct blow 1t the
Boston Clnb, and personal attack on the man-
sger Of SAID Club. The Boston organization and
the name Of it manager were the only ones men,
