Will Kick on Advance Money.
| PltS6urg Leader.
Director Smith, of the Wheeling club,
who was in the city to-day, in speaking of
the Tri-Strts League clubs in general, and
the Wheeling club in particular, said:
There will he NO more advance money
paid to players hereafter. This advance
money has been the big stumbling block
to the financial success of many Of our
clubs, and there is very decided move
ment on foot now for its suppression.
Hereafter we will only advance suf1i-
Gent money to the men to bring
them from their homes to Wheeling, and
the other clubs Of our League feel and talk
the same way" Mr. Smith further stated
that little Billy Otterson IAN Allegheny
bow is playing the best short stop Of any
man in the League, and also that AID.
Gumbert is the best paid player in the
League. Ad. receives $175 8 month from
the Evansville club, while private parties
in that town pay him $50 month addi-
tional. The League rules forbid any club
to pay more than 81 900 q month for its
team"
Jack Glasscecks Remarkable Play
In the last Chicago game Jack Glasscock
made one of the most remarkable plays
ever seen on q hall field, and probably
saved the day, too. In the ninth inning
Williamson and Burns both made hits,
placing them on first and second. Only
two runs were needed TO tie the game, and
Arson was making q great effort to get
them in. Farrell came to the bat The
third ball pitched he caught near the end
of the willow, and it went like shot to
ward second. As il went over the base
like O ball of fire Glasscock made one of his
famous lunges to reach il, and, by q won
derful effort, knocked it to the ground.
There was q cloud of dust, after which q
man shot across second base quick throw
to first, and enc of the most brilliant
double plays ever accomplished on ball
field had been made. The next batter
| went out on fly, and the game was won
indianapolis Cor. Sporting Life
