out OF respect to the game, is a

1T WILL BE SUPPORTED
IF PETER BROPHEY GIVES US A
GOOD BASEBALL TEAM.
Some Comment On the Local Baseball
Situation-The Question of the Loca-
ton Of Baseball Park Agitated.
The Jockey Club After 1t.

Tho attention Of the baseball
admirers will now be turned
toward Peter Brophey, upon whom
rests the fate Of the great Ameri-
can game, as far as San Antonio is
concerned. He accepted a very
severe proposition from the local
association, and his intention in
complying with it was probably
sincere, but he was forced to de.
cline it. In doing this, however,
no made a promise, which, il car
ried out, will be of more satisfac-
ton to the rooters than any guar.
antee he can give. He promises
to give San Antonio a winner,
and all that he asks is the patron.
age and the good will of the
people. This, the people promise,
will be heartily accorded him.
Now, Brophey is not alone in
this undertaking. Jim Nolon, ex-
league secretary, and we'll known
baseball man of Galveston, is Sc
curing the players for Brophey,
which he says, he is doing merely
for friendship for Pete, being a
lifelong companion OF his. Then
there is another gentleman behind
the venture, who is really the one
that is putting the team in, but he
requests that his name be with
held for the present. He will at
tend to the financial matters and
Brophey will handle the players.
Fear is expressed that Brophey
will prove incompetent as man.
ager. Those who know Brophey
say he has never handled ball
team, nor did they know that he
knew anything at all about base
ball. This may be true, bit it is
hoped that Pete knows enough Of
the game to make monkeys Of US
all. However, il we have good
team, and everything is all right
but the manager, which defectIwill
soon be discernible, there need
be no worry about a manager.
