the News Alex Lynn of the constitu-
tion. and other newspaper men.
Walter Taylor, the oldest and prob
ably the best of southern sporting writer's,
a man who was interested in baseball
when the Southern league was first or
ganized, says that the Barons undoubt-
eddy have the best team In the league,
not for individual playing, but for all
round baseball work. He is of the opinion
that there are no four pitchers on any
team in the league who can outpftch
Birmngham's four, although there are
other pitchers who are individually better
than any Birmingham has.
As to the team work and the knowledge
of the ms and outs of the national game,
Mr. Taylor things that the Barons have
the edge on any other team In the league.
He says lack of stars and team work
has won for the Barons. He cannot ac-
count for the success of the squeeze"
play as used by the Barons, and the
inability of other teams to profit by 1t.
In general, the newspaper men of At
lanta feel kindly to Birmingham and the
Birmingham team. They say that the
Barons have not shown any rowdyism this
year while in Atlanta, and In fact that
they have been the most gentlemanly
fellows that visited the Gate City. They
speak of the team as one composed or
quiet and well behaved men who play
baseball to win, but above all who play
a clean and manly game.
All in ALL Atlanta Is with Birmingham
in her successful race for the rag, ana
the Atlantians are asking for nothing now
but the second berth.

REVOLUTIONISTS
COMMIT Excuses
Several Are Wounded and Captured In
Fight With Russian
Patrol.

st. Petersburg, September 1S.-Revolu-
tionsts who have escaped from Karnyshin.
Saratov province, are committing many
excesses in that vicinity. A band of them
attacked the train to Janbov, but a pa
troll arrived and fired volley wounding
several. -Four members of the band were
taken prisoners.
The repayment of money robbed from
the postal department in transit on trains
is becoming a serious matter for the
government. Formerly the amount thus
stolen averaged 21,OOO a year. but for
the first eight months of 1906 a total
of $S15, 500 has been taken.
Yesterday the cabinet decided to reim-
burse this money in installments and es-
tablshed a first credit to this end of
$1825O0. The sum of $7,5O0000 also was
voted as a loan to the zemstvos to re-
plenish their Golfers for hospital school
and soup kitchen purposes.
