TALE OF TWO MANAGERS.
Explanations as to the Demise Of the
Edwards Arkansas League.

Edwards Arkansas League
Manager Harry Edwards has
been talking to the Little Rock re-
porters in innuendoes, as to why he
and Manager Gray sloughed off
with his club from the Arkansas
league, in such an unceremonious
manner, and then laying it first on
Manager Herschburg, and then
the poor business received while
from home, The manager shows
that he is an all-round acrobat, as
well as a base ball fan. He iusti-
des his action of dissolving the
league in this manner, in the Ca
zette:
"On account of the lack OF pat
ronage at Fort Smith and Texark-
ana, we have been compelled to
drop them from the league
They also, after Ft. Smith had
gone there, talked Of it among the
players and it was the impression
that such would be the case, that
they would not leave for another
trip, That being the case, we
could not afford to go there as we
have lost money both trips to Ft'
Smith and Texarkaua,
The Hot Springs team then de-
cided that as we were not going to
Ft. Smith they could not afford to
90 to Texarkana, will state what
we received from the Ft Smith and
Texarkana games, and our eXpen'
ses, so that you can see it was a
case sel('preseryation."
At first TeXarkana was told by
Manager Edwards that the reason
of the dissolution was because Man
ager lIlrschberg, Of Fort Smith,
would not take out his team again,

ing from the Fort Smith Tines

home and the locals will be paid off
this week and released.
Tuesday night several of the
Texarkana and Fort Smith players
received kilograms to join Hot
and Little Rock teams at
once Manager Hlrschberg thought
this funny yand wired Manager Ed
wards If he intended TO GIL his date

the following telegrami
"On account Of lack of patron

We will play season out at Hot
Springs at Little Rock,
