THE CASE OF UMPIRE LYNCH
Forced to Resign Because Of an
Affection Of the Spine.
McDermott Will Resume Work With
the Indicator-Brown's Protest
Yesterday Will Not Stand.

Umpire Lynch has been forced to re-
agn as an umpire in the National League.
Mr.. Lynch has been suffering for some
time this season with an affliction of the
spine, and this ailment prevented him from
umpiring double games. In a single game
he has stood the strain w ell enough until
about the eighth inning, when the pain
became terrible, but he always managed
to endure the agony until the end OF the
game.
His inability to umpire the second game
at Louisville, and the consequent criti-
cism on his failure 10 officiate, no doubt
prompted Mr.. Lynch to forward his reslg
nation to President Young. The latter
may prevail upon the wellknown holder
OF the indicator to withdraw his resigna-
ton. In the meantime, Sandy McDermott
Will again get into the harness. Presi-
den. Young will not appoint any new man
at present.
The protest Of Tom Brown in Louisville
yesterday will hardly stand as he might
just as well have protested the game the
New Yorks won from the Senator's in this
city when Mr. John Heydler umpired. Wolf
was the local substitute umpire, and Presi-
dent Young will scarcely take cognizance
Of any appeal or protest on such flimsy
grounds.
The cry Of umpire by the Senatorial ag-
gregation has been expected for some time,
but Browns grandstand bluff yesterda ywili
hardly 60 among the local cranks, rs the
Senators were clearly outplayed in every
particular.
