Not since the halcyon days of 1896 when Dick German and the fastest minor league team ever seen in the South brought shrieks of delight from grand stand and bleacaers has there been so much baseball enthusiasm in Montgomery as on yesterday. The publication of Judge Kavanaugh's interview In The Ad- vertiser yesterday morning brought, fig uratively speaking an audible sigh of re- lief from every baseball fan in the city. There was not the faintest sign of equiv ocation or hesitancy in the forcible lan- guage employed by the President of the L,ague It was pointed and direct. and Judge Kavanaugh Is very determined when his mind is once made up. The only conclusion reached by the local fans on req ling the emphatic statement was that there would be a speedy termination to the tiresome wrangle, and that the slogan from now on will be the magic words, play ball" Coffee Jackson of the Bir- mingham Club evidently had an interview with Judge Kavanaugh when the latter passed through Birmingham, and Bir- minsham paper has the following:

The proposition submitted by the President of the league was that the two owners of the franchise. who appear to be unable to agree, should set price on their holdings. figure that they would either give or take. This was done in order to eliminate one of them from the control as 1t was shown that both re-
 maining would cause continual trouble on
 the inside.
 His proposition went further and was to the extent that If these gentlemen
 failed to get together in this way. he 1 would take the matter into his own hands and decide to which park the games should be played. It was determined that
 only one park would be used and 1t Is up | to Judge Kavanaugh to select that park It is understood that the President of the l league has lost a1l patience in the matter
 and will use strenuous efforts to compel the retirement of one of the warning own CTS. His decision regarding which park is to be used will probably be made dur ing the week"
