Frank Seiss.

1t was expected that some friction
would be caused over the disposal of
the championship, but Harrisburg con-
ceded the justice of Pottsville's claim,
and the pennant was awarded the lat
ter club without a dissenting vote.
The disputed player question was just
as easily disposed of. Pitcher Pat"
Meaney. whose services were claimed
by both the Pottsvile and Harrisburg
clubs. was awarded the latter.

signed with Hazleton, but who accept
ed advance money from Pottsvlle, was
ordered to play at Hazleton, but that
club will have to refund the money ad-
vanced to the player by Pottsville.
Conroy, who was reserved by Hazleton
under State league rule, but who
signed with Pottsville, will have to
play with the last named club.
The Harrisburg franchise was form
ally turned over to j. r. Zeil, who has
bought out the interest of L. X. Meyers.
