The drst suit for damages growing
out of the destruction of part of the
town of Greenwood by an explosion
following a wreck of trains on the
Delaware Railroad was begun in
Superior Court Monday, Mrs. Ella NJ.
Todd suing to recover $4,000 for in
iuries sustained in the explosion.
None of the train crew was able to tell
what explosive the train carried, and
the Court denied counsel for Mrs. Todd
the privilege of compelling the railway
company by summons to put in evid-
ence its records showing what the ex-
plosive was. THE Court explained
that these records could be introduced
later, on petition to the Court under
th9sDelaware procedure.

Half a. dozen members of the Brming- ham baseball club will awake this morn- ing to find themselves in peck of trou- ble, and these men will find no sympa- thizers among the lovers of the national game In Birmingham.
 It may be many a long day before Mill Ter Delehanty, Moore, Henessy, Ragan and Hafford will again play baseball with any club under the protection of the national agreement. These men are all suspended indefinitely and if severer punishment can be found in the laws of baseball they will suffer the extreme pen alty.
 The players mentioned were suspended indefinitely at a meeting of the Brming- ham Baseball association held last night and it is safe to say that ninety-nine out of every one hundred who love the great national pastime will applaud the action of the association and will hope that an even severer punishment can be meted out to the offending players.
 Because they were fined for a breach of discipline Miller Hennessy, Hafford, Ragan. DeIehanty and Moore refused to play ball yesterday afternoon, and they took this step without giving Manager Vaughan any warning whatever. As result a team had to be hurriedly patched up at the last minute by pressing erip- pied man into service as catcher usng another catcher in the infield and two pitchers in the outfeld.
 Trouble About Pay.

Hanoro check yesterday was $25 to the bad' ne having been assessed this amount at the same time that Miller was suspended and for the same offense of which Miller had hoen puilty. However, as it was Half ford's first offense, he was let off with s25 fine.
 Delehanty. Ragan, Moore and Hennes- sv each found their checks short 70, they having been fined these amounts for fall- ing to report at the park after repeated warnings which had long gone unheedeo

sLAGPILE NOTES

If there are a few good amateur or semi professional ball players in Birmingham or vicinity they would do well to report at West End park to Manager Harry Vaughan today. 'I want some players, said Harry last night, and l must have them at once. I can't get any well known ones right away, but if there are any ambitious youngsters hereabouts who want a trial let them come out to the park tomorrow and see me. Tell any of the boys who want chance not to hesitate to call on me-.
 Montgomery caught swell game Tor d crippled man and gave evidence that his bad pin is almost as good as new again. Just look at his record in the box score.
 We are all for you, boys" was the cry from every part of the stands. The men who stood by Birmingham yesterday have made friends who will never forget them.
 Three of the eight hits off Sallee were scratches Dessau misjudged two nies which went for two baggers put nobody had any kick com Ng on the boy who SD oheerfully went into an unfamiliar po- sition and did the best he could. NO man can do better than his best, and we have Shakespeare as authority that The who does the best he can does we'll
 All honor to Montgomery, Niles, smith, Wagner. Matthews, Anderson, Dessau, Sallee and "Ginger' Clark. Their names will be spoken only in terms of praise in the future.
 Manager Jordan of the Atlanta team, protested the game which the Barons won yesterday on the ground that there were only nine Birmingham players in uniform when the rules require that ten men shall be ready for immediate serv- ice at all times.
 finder the circumstances which pre- vailed yesterday Jordan will hardly get yesterdays game. The six players who seemingly conspired to prevent Birming- ham having a full team on the field when play was called did not give Manager Vaughan sufficient notice or he could have had Ginger Clark in uniform or some amateur which would have carried the point of having ten men in uniform. ready to play ball.
 No one believes that President Kava- naugh will give the game to Atlanta un- der the circumstances.

I have told Delehanty repeatedly that we had rather have him than any amount of money. but that would not stand in the way of his climb ing higher. We had quite talk on the subject yesterday morning at the club house after he had received his check with the s5 fine taken out. We talked pleasantly and he showed no signs of dis satisfaction because of the fine then again told him that I would not stand in his way to better himself in the baseball worla, and. in fact, have been helping him to go higher. although I wanted to keep him next year anyway in case I remained here.

Frank Delehanty got fin bad, at a very unpropitious time for himself. Had 1t not been for his action yesterday he probably would finish the season with the New York Americans and be with them again next year and as long there after as he made good" and few south ern fans would doubt his ability to hold his own in the fastest company as long as he tried to play ball and took care of himself.
 Just after the game yesterday Manager Vaughan received telegram from Clark Griffith, manager of the New York Americans. which read: 'Will give you 5000 for Delehanty If he makes good and If does not will protect him and turn back to you
