The Coal Barons leave this morning for Montgomery and the Southern league campaign will be continued without abatement On account of the new Sun day law it was impossible to play in Montgomery and upon notification of this fact Manager OBrien kept his men in Birmingham until this morning
 It Is likely that Minnehan will pitch for Birmingham today, though 1t is un- certain who will open the season for Stickney's team in Montgomery. The Barons feel quite hopeful of getting away with a majority of the games at Mont gomery. though baseball luck is a very uncertain proposition. On form Birming- ham has Montgomery beaten but form cuts no ice against luck.
 Stton, the college pitcher, was expect ed in Birmingham last night, but he failed to arrive and Bobby Triton, his chum, says he will probably be in this morning. If he arrives at Il o'clock he will be dis patched to Montgomery on the first train, as his services are needed.
 Manager Brien has decided to carry all his available pitchers with him. These will be Minnehan, Hopkins, Triton, Wag- ner and Clark. Blackburn, Wheeler, Me- Laughlin and Mcconnell have been re- leased.
 Harry Vaughan will be carried along with the team and his physician expects that he will be able to be in the game be- fore the end of the Montgomery series
 The Birmingham club returns home Thursday for three games with Atlanta. After the return from Montgomery they have eight games at home. They then go for a complete swing around the cir cult, being away three weeks.

BARONS CROSS BATS
 WITH LEGISLATORS
BETTING IN MONTGOMERY ON TODAY'S GAME IS EVEN AND THE BIRMINGHAM TEAM HAS MANY SUPPORTERS.

Montgomery, April 4.-(Special.) )-Mont- gomery and Birmingham cross bats at Highland park tomorrow afternoon. This simple announcement has caused consid erable furry among the fans of the city and the game is the talk of the city. There has been much rivally between the Coal Barons and the Legislators, in fact, there has always been rivally between these two cities. From the first three games played it looks like the Coal Ba- rons have the best of it, as they won one game from Nashville, while the Leg islators lost three to the Atlanta Crack CTS.
 Bets are being made at even money and the Coal Barons have friends here who are putting up the cash for them
 The pitching of Minnehan of the Coal Barons has opened the eyes of the fans here. They believe he is a wonder. The friends of the Coal Barons are anxious to see him pitch the game
 The knockers are all around and the home team got few for dropping three straights to the Crackers. They didn t understand It. The Legislators have a strong team and are going to be heard from in the future. They won the three first games in Atlanta last season, and where did they end? Somewhere near the bottom. The fans say 1t Is going to be the opposite this season.
 Stultz will no doubt pitch the opening game, and 1t is thought Minnehan will go In for the Coal Barons.
 The crowds at the grounds will be enormous, as so much interest in base ball has never before been known in this city.
 The showing made by the Crackers surprised the Montgomery fans, but the knowing ones said, T told you SO" Un- cle Abner must have great team, and his pitching staff must be way up yon- der.
 The Legislators arrived today and are looking well, and all say they had great time in Atlanta. They do not feel dis couraged and say they are now ready to tackle the Coal Barons. They are de- termined to show the home people that they can play, and the game promises to be a fast one Pabst will likely take his place at first, as he is feeling much better. This will add considerable strength to the team, as Manners, who has been playing first, could not hold the bag down like he can his old place behind the bat. Kid Busch will be given a chance at short in one of the games and Delehanty will sit on the bench while the Kid tries out It is not yet known whether the Kid or Delehanty will cover short. Delehanty has played great ball. notwithstanding the fact he made some costly errors in the Atlanta games

 From the Memphis Morning News: Manager Whistler has begun wedding out his team and now has them well in hand, and he Is on the alert to discover any weak spot that may develop Ehret, Mcintyre, French and Hale of last years team head the pitching staff and are all too well known to need any introduction to the local baseball rs,blic.

 The Chicago Record Herald gets off the following:
 "The man who wrote Casey (peace be to his several ashes) al the Bat never saw the great game at Mudville He tells how Casey, after two strikes had been called on him by the umpire, fan ned the air, leaving two men on bases. Then he has the crowd move gloomily homeward. That's where the poet fell down. Something like this (not too much like it. but tfe same in spiriD tells the IaCtS m the case.
 There were doins then in Mudvlle
 The rocks began to fly;
 The throng made for the umpire
 And smote him hip and thigh;
 They drove him to the club house,
 The winning team they mobbed,
 And they swore by all that's holy
 That Casey had been robbed.
 New York, April 24-Whether the play ing of baseball game in Greater New York on Sunday is illegal is to be decid- ed on test case the first step in which was taken today under instructions s- sued by Police Commissioner McAdoo. Besides players, three sellers of score cards were arrested.
 Commissioner McAdoo recently made the statement that he would not permit playing in Manhattan. but would allow games at Washington park. Brooklyn. Today the commissioner issued instruc- tions to arrest those most conspicuous in such games and accordingly after Pitcher Poole had pitched the second ball he was placed under arrest He will have his hearing tomorrow.

From the New Orleans Times-Demo- crat: In the Birmingham game, where Pitcher Minnehan shut out the Fisher men from the Knobs O Tennessee, all the credit is given the twirler Tom O'Brien succeeded in getting from the New York Nationals. Minnehan is a college boy who did exceptionally good work with Georgetown before the New York Giants picked him up. The lad will prove a stumbling block to many Southern league batsmen if he keeps up the way he has started the season.
