Eastern TrI.Statern.

G. Gilbert kulp. who has returned from the meeting of the Tri-State League at Harrisburg, says an Eastern exchange. where he withdrew from the league. stated today that the policy of the organization to remain an outlaw was largely the cause of his retire ment from Tri-State company. He said that without protection the salary list would be higher than last year, and that managers. owners and athletic associations would go down deep in their pockets to support the expensive sport. The salary list of one of the teams for next season is, already S4,100 per month. and there is no telling how high it will go before the season opens. Kulp released all the men ef last years team which were reserved to Altoona. Regarding the reorganization of the Susquehanna League. Kulp said:
 AS fdrlas l am concerned. the talk of the reorganization of the Susquehan- na League is hot aHr. When l with drew. from the league last season I withdrew for good, and I will have no- thing to do with the cheap sports from Sunbury and Mt.

 "The Quakers pride themselves on having the lowest salary list in the American League. and tho chances are that the new third baseman will receive over $1,000 less than Lave received for a stipend.
 Tim also hands Davis little rap. as follows:
 Harry Davis is to take the place made vacant by Lave Cross. An, no. Davis is not in the same class with the man from Cleveland Harry is a good ball player, but needs an overseer while in uniform. His fellow players cannot have the same respect. even should be form only the mouthpiece of Manager Connie.
