Communicated

Mr. Editor:-ln the issue of the Times OF
September 18th, undertook to defend Mr..
Charlie, s. Parran against the charge of dis
honesty preferred by the Times, and, as my
defense was subject of unfair criticism by it,
sent a reply to said criticism, which was
gracefully rejected. |, therefore, with your
permission, will make the INDEPENDENT the
medium of correcting few mistakes and con-
cu,ions of the Tins.
In my reply, said the assertion made by
the Times that Mr. Parran granted to Buck
could neither affirm nor deny; but if true, Mr..
Parran would have to explain, and he has
srplaiaed. The Times accused me of drawing
on nv imagination when | said large
minority, if not majority, desired to continue
the game. A little care would have convinc-
ed the Times that did not assert anything
made the statement upon the authority Of a
player whose word, am satisfied, would not
be questioned by any member of the nine, or
ANYBODY else. If the valuable space and
time would permit, the Times could refute
every argument advanced. The Times ought
70 have known that did not essay to offer
an argument, presented testimony.
The Times, September 5th, said Mr.. Parran
was rascal; September l2th, it called him a
rascal again. September 10th, it says it sees
no reason why Mr.. Parran should not be a
rascal, but adds he may be a gentleman. Or
binary minds will say, if Mr.. Parran is a ras-
cal, and the Times says he is, he cannot be a
gentleman.
The Times the lnsklled in the
art of base ball are getting tired of base ball
discussions The fact is, the Times is cx-
tremely tired. 1t has opened its mouth and
put its foot in it. 1t has made specific charge
and cannot sustain it A string is pulled and
something says "Mr. Parran, thou art a
scoundrel." Mr. Parran riseth in his might
and saith unto the thing 81 tell thee to thy
teeth, yea even With my fist under thy nose
that thou art liar"
The Times is snxious to leave the matter to
discriminating public. 1t should choose
another umpire.
