THE MARINES
BARRED OUT
The League Thinks
They Wanted
Too Much.
Would Not Look at $500
for Their Seasons
Expenses.
Adoption of Report Mas Jnan;-
mous-Schsdule OF Games :.
for Whole Season.

last night, the proposition of the Ma
rines to enter the League was rejected
on a report of the special committee.
There is an impression abroad that the
| Marines desired to enter purely for the
sport. This idea the report complete
ly dispels. The Marines refused to
accept a liberal counter proposition to
one in which they wanted to share in
the speculative part of the business.
The League adopted a schedule of
games for the season. In this the
Both of May (Memorial Day., the 18th
of June and Regatta Day were cut out.
1t was decided that any postponed
game should be played on the next
holiday succeeding the schedule date
of such game. II after the holidays a
game is postponed. it will be played
at the end of the season.
Everything done at the meeting was
unanimous. H M. Whitney. Jr., pre-
sided and Frank w. Thompson acted
as secretary, while the various clubs
We're represented as follows:
Elks-Richardson and German.
H A eC.-GIeason and Williams.
Punahou-Carter and Steere.
Mailes-Luhisen and Crook.

Following is the report of the special
committee on the application of the
Marines for admission:
REPORT OF COMMITTEE.
To the Chairman and Members of the
Honolulu Baseball League.
Gentlemen: At the meeting held to
consider the application of the Marine
baseball team, held at 8 p. m, Febru-
airy Is, 1904 at the Elks' hall, We're
present the managers of the five teams,
together with Lieut.. Harllee, repre-
sentative of the Marine baseball team.
In the meeting Lieut.. Harllee adj
vanced the proposition as follows:
The Marine baseball team be allowed
to enter the League on equal footing
with the other teams.
In discussion the question of what
interest the other teams already had in
the grounds was met by another prop
osition, viz: That his team be allowed
twelve months to pay in the amount
already earned by the other teams, to-
gether with interest at eight per cent,
and in case of failure to do so they
were to forfeit their interest in the sew
enty per cent to be earned this year.
which your committee thinks they are
not in any way entitled to.
We met this proposition with a coun-
ter proposition to the effect that your
committee would accept the application
in accordance with their original prop
osition, which was that we guarantee
them their actual expenses as they
We're not looking forward to entering
the League as a anoney-making insti-
tuition Your committee went so far
as to offer them the sum of three hum
dred dollars $4,000, which was not ia
vored by them.
Your committee therefore reports
against the admission of the Marine
baseball team to the Honolulu Baseball
League.
