He is down and out and the league has
positively declined 10 have anything fur

Walters and II. II. Martens are planning
to organize a stock company to take hold
of the team and continue ii through the

dent or the Bush league, is anxious that
Council Bluffs retain its membership as
he is OF the opinion that Council Bluffs
is the best ball town In the circuit.
The team, since Buck Keith got his
walking papers. has been partially re-
organized and the places of the men who
quit filled with extra men on the Sioux
City and Lemars teams. The team played
yesterday at Sioux Falls, the salaries OF
the men being guaranteed for the present
by the league The league. however, de-
clined TO pay Keith's debts or the back
salaries due the men.
Messrs Quinn, Walters and Martens are
of the opinion that they can interest q
sufficient number of business men to Sc
cure suficient funds 20 put the team to-
gether again .and retain Council Bluffs

proprietor OF the Creston house and is
one OF Keith's heaviest creditors, he hav-
ing boarded the team from the opening
OF the season until last Sunday when It
went to Sioux City.
Unless some definite action in the matter
is taken in a few days. It is likely that
the franchise will be. transferred by the
officers Of the league to sheldon, which
is anxious to get into the game.

the corn acreage will be omitted from this

the other staples are as follows, the figure
