SAVANNAH MAY ENTER
NEW BALL LEAGUE

Messrs. Charles Frank, head of the
Memphis Baseball Club of the South

terday in consultation with the local
lovers of baseball relative to the out
look of Savannah's putting a team in
the field the coming season as a mem
Der of the Southern League, or, that is,
OF the New Southern League, an or
ganization which, as was stated in the
Morning News some weeks ago, is now
being organized.
The visitors have been in this part
Of the South for some days, coming
here from Charleston, and are here
merely to find out what the prospects
for getting a team here are. The fran
chise, they state will cost $1,000, this
amount to be payable, $500 Dec. Is and
the remainder April 10. This amount
they state the club does not lose, as
with similar payments from the re-
mainder of the members of the organi-
cation it is banked until the end of
five years when it is divided.
Plans for New League.
The projectors of the new league
also have another plan, one that they
are assured means the solidity of the
league and the prosperity of each team,
and this is to take 10 per cent. from
