and argued it so fierceIy that he kept the at
tention of the whole Houston club until his
three base runners had slipped in home

DURING the progress of yesterdays game at
Washington Park Manager Powers, of Roches-
ter, walked into the press box and abused Um-
pire DALEY to the reporters. He accused him
charge that Daley had received money from
the Southern League, and then signed to
umpire with the Michigan League. After the
game Powers and Daley were brought face
to face, and Powers retracted. saying he had
spoken in anger, caused by the rough deal
returned the money sent on by the Southern
League-NeW York World.
THE minor Leagues have raised a question
which is an interesting one tn solve. Rule 2S
OF the playing rules says that ''in every cham
pionship game each team shall be required to
have present on the field in uniform at least
two or more substitutes" Many of the clubs
ment, are compelled to operate on such a small
salary limit that they can afford to carry but
ten men. Some OF them have written to PreSi-
dent Zach Phelps. of the American Associa-
tion. in regard to the matter, and his interpre-
tation was that club would be compelled to
have eleven men on the payroll This will
likely cause an interesting discussion. 1t looks
absurd, to say the least. that a club be COM
PEELED to pay useless man a salary simply that
it can conform to one of the playing rules.
