Trouble Between Mr.. Brigham and
Commercial Club Quieting.

The Commercial club
embroglio was to have been put on at
the Commercial club rooms this morn
ing over the Midwinter proceeds There
was no fight. possibly because there
was no quorum, and then possibly too
because all persons interested are will
ing to have the matter quoted down.
It has caused whole lot of worry
already
The trouble it viii be remembered,
came about over the action of the en-
tertainment-advert committee of
the club asking for a snare of the Mid
winter proceeds. The charitable organ
izatiOns which have the concessions at
the fair, receive according to contract
so per cent of their entire proceeds. It
has been the custom of the fair man
agement, when it realizes that all bills
viii be paid, and that financial success
is assured, to give to these organiza-
tons the additional 30 per cent as well,
or all they make.
The Commercial club committee met
last Tuesday and discussed the matter
1t felt that the club ought to receive
this 40 per cent because it has fostered
the enterprise, or aided in getting it
started. The point was that the Com
mercial club may be asked to make up
d deficit if one should ever occur. r.
5. Brigham, secretary and general
manager of the Midwinter association
is in full charge of the exposition. This
power has practically been delegated to
him by the directors, and he has been
an excellent. steward, for no enterprise
has succeeded as We'll as his and espe-
cially since it asks no aid from Topeka
merchants whatever. Mr.. Brigham s
zone man" rule was objected to.
So the committee urged meeting
with the directors Of the fair to talk
over the matter. and the meeting was
set for this morning at $50 O'Clock.
There are nine naemb ers of the direc-
torate and but four We're there. There
was no quorum. Neither was, there a
quorum of the advertiseme nt-enter-
tainment committee. So the meeting
was called off Indefinitely 1t is likely
that the matter viii not come up again.
or if it does, viii simply be discussed
in the meeting Of the directors which IS
held after the fair is over.

The Removal of Mclean Has Stirred
Columbia to the Depths.


Columbia Mo-, Jan. 27.-The summary
removal of John F. Mclean for three
years coach of the football and track
teams at the university, has proved to
be the biggest sensation of the year.
The town has turned upon DR.. Hether-
ington with furious indignation, not be-
cause the students, townspeople and pro-
fessors are opposed to clean athletics,
but because they believe that DR.. Heth-
erington, the director of athletics, has
gone too far in his dictatorial policy of
conducting athletics and that now is the
time for the students, alumni and
townspeOple to get together and secure
his removal.
A movement was started today for an
organization to secure his removal. The
charge is not that he insists upon clean
athletics, for that the community be
lieves in. but because in all his actions
ne has shown that he is tactless and
dictatorial. Since he has been here he
has never received one cheer from the
student body, although they have always
given him credit for putting athletics
uDon a clean basis.
The Daily Tribune last evening print
ed the following account of the demon
stration given to Mclean at the depot
as he left for St. Louis:
Three hundred students gave Coach
Mclean a send-off at the Wabash sta
ton this afternoon. Several times this
number would have been there had it
been known that he was going to leave.
Almost every member of the track, base
ball and football teams We're there and
they declared to him that they would
not participate in athletics as long as
the present director remained at the
helm 1t was not a protest against clean
athletics; it was not friendship for Nc
Lean: it was the bursting forth of
standing indignation of months and
years against cOld-blooded methods and
dictatorship in athletic affairs.

Bill Bruner. leading pitcher of the Cot
ton States league. and Curtis Gardner,
outfelder for Meridian and the leader of
the league with the bat have been pur-
chased by Birmingham. They will report
next year. The price paid for the pair is
not stated, but was good round sum.
Manager Vaughn thinks mighty we'll Of
the two recruits he has secured. While in
Meridian recently he talked with Presi-
dent oNeill about the players and then
advised President Baugh of the local club
to buy them, which was done mined
lately.
Several other clubs were after these two
players, but Birmingham acted shade
the quickest and offered a little the
best price, and the two men became
Barohs for next year.
Bruner has a record of eighteen games
won and nine lost this year, and he hits
in the neighborhood Of 200. Gardner, ae-
cording to the last dope, was leading the
league with an average of 1886. and in
addition to that he has pitched several

FOOD FOR FANS.

The Barons strike the town of the tall
enders this afternoon just SO points ahead
of Memphis. -Four games are to be played
and four games should be added to the
games won column of the Barons. It
Is an actual fact that the Baroness need
the games and Manager Vaughn will
probably not take any chances of losing
them.
The four straight games dropped by
the Barons in as many days, has de-
creased her lead from 20 points to SO.
practically one-half. Memphis has been
crawling up all the time that the Barons
were going back As a matter of fact. If
the team wants to come home at the top
of the column 1t must trim Little Rock
nicely, and here's hoping.
The fans will be immensely surprised
this morning when they discover that the
official scorer in Memphis credits Wal
tiers with the error which lost the game
yesterday in the tenth inning. According
to the story Montgomery made a bad
throw to Walters who covered first on
bunt, and the news over the ticker at
the matinee indicated that it was Mont
gomery's error and not Walters.
Salee was fined s25 yesterday by Man
ager Vaughn for for keeping late hours
The big manager was eminently correct
1t seems to be the only way to keep Sal
lee in good condition, and at this criti-
cal stage of the game 1t would never
do to allow Sallee to weaken and lose
any more games.
Atlanta is looming up as a pennant
possibility now more than ever Mem
phis Is just a few points ahead of At
lanta and New Orleans, which teams are
tied up for third place. A trio of games
either way and Atlanta or New Orleans
may crowd Memphis out of second place
and give the Barons a chase for the
rag
There is one consolation. For the next
three days Atlanta and New Orleans
play each other. and one of the two must
drop lower In the race Birmingham
has the easiest team in the league to
defeat.
Wilhelm or Raglan will pitch today's
game against Little Rock, and on one of
the three days that the Barons are with
the Travellers a doub1eheader will be
played. 1t is almost a cinch that both
games of the doubleheader will go to
I the Barons, according to past per-
formances.
The team comes home Sunday and
opens Monday under the shadow Of the
pile of Stag, and they finish the season
under the same shadow. II the team
comes back with a comfortable lead, say
% or 80 points, 1t will be practically i'm
possible to keep it from landing the Pen
nant Memphis and New Orleans go on
the road Monday and either team can
be depended upon to lose about as many
games as they win.
Out OF eleven road games the locals
have won only six, which gives them a
majority, but not as large majority
as was hoped after four games out of
FIVE were taken from Shreveport and two
out of three from the Pelicans.
| Everyone feared that visit to Memphis
and their fears we're we'll grounded. Not
| only did the Barons lose all three games
| something that the team has not done
before this year. but they broke an
other record. when three players were
| put out of the game.

TWO PLAYERS BOUGHT
BY BARON MANAGEMENT

games for Meridian and made a good
showing in the box
The following special from Meridian
gives some dope on the two recruits for
the Baron ranks:
Bill Bruner. pitcher. sold to Birming-
ham, is the leading pitcher of the Cot
ton States league The last dope gave him
eighteen victories and nine defeats, max
ing him leader by a wide margin. As a
hitter he is about average for pitcher,
his figures being 1888.
Curtis Gardner. outfelder, has lead the
league in hitting practically all the sea
son, being in the neighborhood of 1886 at
the last compilation. On account Of the
glare of the local sandy diamond, he is
experiencing a batting slump now but
will hit about the 300 mark for the season
and rank among the first three hitters of
the league. He has pitched several games
for the locals when the regular pitchers
were incapacitated and made a good
showing in the box.
Both these players report to Birming-
ham next season.
