MORE OF BASEBALL
A COMMITTEE OF SOUTHERN
 LEAGUE WERE HERE.
It is Certain Now That a Club Will Fly the Montgomery Colors in the League During the
 Coming Season.

| For the first time in years there was something doing in good hard earnest in local baseball circles yesterday.
 As was stated in The Advertiser yester- day morning Char lie Frank of Memphis. Newt Fisher of Nashville, the Circuit Committee of the southern League, reach ed Montgomery Tu, sday night. Alb Powel
 of New Orleans is the third member of the committee and win meet them in Mo- bile today. Ed Peter, who has charge or the Atlanta team next season, and the gentleman who proposes to put team in Montgomery as a speculation, were ai-
 so here. After talking with several of
 the local fans the gentleman had con ference with the Street Railway people, gong from there out to the ball park. The me mbers of ttis committee are vis- iting the different cities in this section and their views will be embodi ed in a re- port to the next meeting of the league tn Nashville on the 18th of next month. Yes terday they said it would be impossible for them to say anything about the pros- poets of Montgomery as they had been
 detailed to simply look over the ground and make a report to the league. With degree of certainty. however. it can be stated that Montgomery will be member of the Southern League of 1902. There is every reason to believe that i baseball here during the coming season l will be a decided success. The season l just closed has shown that the Southern | League is not only on a stable basis but | operated on strictly business principles. Last season was a banner one for the Southern League, every town in the cir cult quitting the season with good bank account. The outlook for the coming sea- son promises an even more successful sea- son, the people having confidence in the men at the head of the organization. Baseball in Montgomery during the coming season looks like sure thing and
 the indications are that the gentleman
 backing the local team will make good on his venture.
 The following special from Nashville
 will be news to the Montgomery friends of Sewanee:
 It is now claimed that Sewanee has be-
 come liable to suspension from the South
 ern Intercollegiate Athletic Association | by playing Lemoyne in Saturdays game
 with Vanderbilt. he having been ruled off
 as ineligible by President Dudley and the Executive Committee. Protest was filed
 some days before the game by Dr. Pat terson of the University of Georgia, who called attention to the face that LemoSpe
 was ineligible because he had played with | Tulane last year.
 Formal notice had been given Sewanee.
 The trial, if any, will come up at the 1 annual meeting in January.
