Indians Never Complain.
The Indians rarely make any complaint
as to treatment received In game. but
several of them have voiced an opinion not
altogether flattering to the players OF the
Canton eleven. who they claim conducted
themselves upon the field in way that was
not becoming and which will do no good TO
the sport. In this contest Coach BemuS

whole Canton team sgnaled him out 1or
