How the Season Planned Out.

After some little investigation it has been
learned thai but four clubs have made money
In TIE Western association during the past
season-MinncapolIs, Omaha, Milwaukee
and Denver. Minneapolis, however, has
been the only big winner, her profits footing
mp to $40, 900 or more. Omaha came out
ahead about 5000, and Milwaukee and Den
yer q little better than even.
ST. Paul, through inefficient management,
has lost money, an insignificant sum, how
ever, when compared with the other losing
cities. lQes Moines IS out of pocket, despite
their every effort to cut down expenses.
about $4,000, WINS Sioux City and st. Joe
are deeper in the hole still. The Corn
Huskera' off side of the helance sheet shows
q deficiency of nearly IS, 900, while poor old
st. Joe's shortage will amount to
$1,000 or more. These ciLies did
not give their clubs the support trey de-
served, and as a consequence there is much
soreness among the management ana stock
holders. ST. Joe has already proclaimed that
she Is nc hog and knows when she has got
the most eYhilarating sport that will be wit
messed down the river next summer. Sioux
City, however, is made ont of different stuff,
and a little back-set of n few thousands Ia
inadequate to cause her TO throw up the
sponge. She intends TO chuck in q little more
tar and try it again, believing that with
q str0ngef team next season she can not only
recoup from the effects of this year, but come
out ahead. This is n ccmmendable spirit,
and the whole association will wish the Corn
Huskers good luck. o.

The Base BAN Situation.

The recent article in The BEE anent the
transfer of the Omaha team to Boston ere.
ated no little amount of excitement among
the base ball loving fraternity of this city,
but the press dispatches which have followed
the announcement tend to cause still more
wonderment. A recent telegram from st.
Paul conveys the intelligence that Conant,
the leading member of the famous Boston
triumvirate of Conant, Billings aud Soden,
in company with Manager Sel Of the
Omahas, was figuring for the transfer of
every team in the Western association 10 the
National league. AS a matter Of course the
proposed movement is supposed To be one in
augurated for the purpose Of checkmating
the Base Ball brotherhood, which threatens
to secede and start a league Of their W
next season.
While the fallacy of the matter, as a
whole, is Mt once apparent, the report cannot
be set ASIDE without consideration in part. 1t
Is to o certain extent true. The league man
ayers are hustling for players for next year,
anc 10 that end VII make an effort to secure
the best players In the Western association.
As a matter of course, the Sioux City and ST.
Joseph teams as u body would not be decided
upon as the best available timber for clubs
in a city like New York or Philadelphia, but
each has players who would undoubtedly be
selected, and the balance purchased from
other leagues, the Interstate for instance.
The Base Bah brotherhood is hustling
vigorously, and has practically secured A. @.
Mlls, the ex-president of the league, as
their president at a salary CT $4,000 per
year, and with the sympathy of the press
and public behind it, feels that their pro-
posed co,ope.' ative plan will oe a success.
Should the brotherhood engage in
play as rep )rted, and the league
inagnates decide to oppose them--as
they undoubtedly will, 1t will readily be seen
that the latter will of necessity be compelled
10 secure the best players obtainaole in order
TO retain patronage.
Sam Morton, of Minneapolis, is said to be
opposed to tho change, but Seele is hard at
work, and the verdant Flour City man Will
no doubt find himself c~heckmated before he
can find time to put in u protest.
What the prospects are for a team In
Omaha next year remains TO be seen.

The Probable New Members.

The way affairs are shaping themselves, II
looks very much as II both Toledo ana De-
troit would be in the Western association
next year, taking the places Of Des Moines
ana Sioux City. These cities would surely
make a most desirable acquisition TO the
western circuit, inasmuch as Doth are large
and thriving towns, and enthusiastic devo-
tees of the national game. If they really de-
sire TO Jump the international and come into
the Western association, there is little doubt
but what they will be welcomed with open
arms. OF course, this extending the circuit
would entail considerable additional expense
IN the way OF transportation, but this should
furnish no grounds for vigorous objection,
rs the increased gate receipts would much
more than counterbalance this extra out
lay. And then, Detroit and Toledo are
not much more out OF the was on ths east,
than Denver is on the west, and they could
DO admitted under the provisional clause
that governs the membership of the noun
tain city. The American association circuit
Is evens, puch longer than the Western would
be including the two cities named. The
Jump from Brooklyn To Kansas City is "a
much greater one than it would be from Den
YER To Detroit. So il these cities make APP
pllcation, aud IT looks as If they intended 10,
they VIII certainly be admitted. Detroit is
sick OF the petty administration of AFFAIRS in
the international, and so Is Toledo, and il is
quite probable that they are LAYING their
ropes Tor franchises IN tho Western.
