BASEBALL BRIEFS.
Bio Cut in Salaries.

Not since the American league has
been in existence has there been such
scaling in salaries as this year, says an
exchange. Some of the players suffer
ed a shrinkage of their incomes before
1904. but nothing like the extent To
which il has been suggested this year
by the managers OF the teams.
The players who are hit. Of course. are
making quite an ado about the matter.
They have been taught TO believe that
the American league is the great origin
al booster of salaries. and they do not
relish the notion of losing any part OF
their pay through action taken by
those WHO induced them To jump their
contracts with the National league.
That such would be the inevitable
outcome was repeatedly pointed out To
the players. but with their usual ac-
ceptance of the theory that IL is better
10 live in the present than To think OF
he future. they made the leap. and are
now in n position where they have no
bower TO help themselves il they have
the inclination.
In the meantime. strange as II may
apDear. and To some extent not the re-
suit Of philanthropy. but of business
rivalry. the National league VIII pay
more liberal salaries this year in many
instances where there are conflicting
clubs n the same city
This is where the player in the
American league feels that the boot is
pinching his foot particularly hard.
II is partly the outcome Of longtime
contracts. which were signed in order
TO retain National league players. and
there has been no offer TO reduce salar
.es. nor is there likely TO be

held yesterday afternoon at the Y. NJ

~ State Railway Secretary A NJ.

Mr.. Bruner told of the foreign work
Of the association. and referred espec-

the associations in this country.

A field of 100000, 900 young men for

some time have to put a cold compress
on wartime pay was long ago conced-
ed. Players were eating up the re-
ceipts of the game. and owners were
being left with not enough to pay their
ground rent.
When the suggestion of cutting sal
aries was first made there were some
players who asked that they be releas-
ed outright. as they wanted TO return
to the National league, but the Ameri-
can league owners, after the hard
fight they had made to get the men.
could not see it that way. and could
not be blamed for their stand.
There has been no favoritism in the
matter of salaryfcutting. Even the
champions in Boston have heard the
bad news, although there is none of
the Boston men who will be unable to
provide himself with bread and butter
next summer.
All will draw liberal salaries in spite
of the fact that they are not quite so
high as they were when the American
and National leagues snorted fire when
ever they talked about each other
1t is well-known fact that the Chi
cago and Philadelphia American league
clubs are not .high-salaried, and there
is not much probability that the play
ers in those organizations have been
asked to accept very much less. unless
it be some man who has not lived up
to the terms of his contract or has fall
en- of so much in play that he is no
longer considered so valuable to the
team.

Baseball Trouble at Grand Rapids.

South Bend. Ind, Jan. 9.-One OF
the most unique baseball situations in
the history of minor league ball has
developed at Grand Rapids. After
terms of sale for the Grand Rapids

owners and prospective buyers, it was
learned the rental of the park for Sun
day games was too high. The situa-
ton will likely prevent the transfer
of the club by Mautner and Heenan

agreed on for the sale of the team

NATIONAL GUARD
OFFICERS MEET

ST. PAUL. Mimi, June 19.-The
adjutant general and militia officers
of many states are gathering in St
Paul for the annual convention of
the Interstate National Guard associ-
alton. The convention will be in
session three days and from all in
dications will be of great interest and
importance to those interested in
the affairs OF the national guard.
One of the most important ques-
tions before the convention is the
ACCESSIBILITY of asking congress to
Increase the annual appropriation for
the maintenance of the national
guard of the several states from
$1,000, 600 to 100000 Members of
, the national association maintain
that an increase in the appropriation
is necessary to put the guard in good
condition. Under the Dick law pass
ell by congress two years ago, the
national guard is made the second
means of defense of the United
States, ranking next to the regular
army, and in conformity with it's
important standing it is deemed
necessary that the guard be fully
equipped and Kept in an excellent
state of discipline.

The thunder of her pounding
wheels was deafening. Now she was
