HIS EFFORT YESTERDAY AND THE CERTAINTY THAT HE MILL COM. TINuE GOOD oRvlATEs GRIN NEED OF NEW PITCHER.

? As badly as Manager Vaughn and the local management desires to win the pen nant, and this desire is keen in spite of adverse criticism, 1t is not seen fit to violate the salary limit of the South ern league, and by so doing acquire an- other pitcher.
 Manager Vaughn last evening declared that he would be willing to expend some S3O00, if that expenditure would guarantee the rag to Birmingham. He has stated that he would be willing to pay $500 per month for new pitcher if that pitcher could deliver the goods. In other words, if the league would allow Manager Vaughn to overstep the salary limit, he would do so and immediately enroll ana other pitcher, because another pitcher according to Manager Vaughn, gwould be of certain benefit to the teSna
 As a matter of fact, however, if the Barons should employ smother pitcher, his salary added to the salaries paid the other players, would make the local ex- penditures more than S27oo monthly. which is the limit of the league. The penalty for going beyond the limit is the loss of the franchise, and forfeiture of all games played while the expenditures are above the agreement In other words, if the simply mean their retirement from the league race.
 Manager Vaughn, 1t Is evident, has a

 Birmingham voted to stay within the bounds of the salary limit. This express sion should be adhered to. If there exists any desire to get around the limit, it is impossible. If Frank and Gilks have broken the limit successfully, there is no reason that the Barons should know how it was broken. President Kavanaush has never offered to connive with Bir- mingham in any such schemes. And it is a certainty that his ledger at least shows the other teams within the limit, also.

The Barons had the one in a 1 to 0 game al West End park yesterday even ing, the goose egg having been served to the Pirate gang from Shreveport.
 The game was a beautiful contest and was distinguished chiefly by the return to form of Scatter" Sallee. the elongated Baron twirler, and the defeat of Red Tom Fisher, the Shrevetown star The game was won in the tenth inning, when Dale Gear "squeazed' Gladys Moles- worth all the way from third to home. Fisher was master of the situation from the very beginning until the time that Molesworth crossed the rubber. The win ning of the contest is attributable to the right royal support furnished the Baron twirler and a great many excellent twisters that he threw into the nit of Harry Matthews.
 The third game of the series will be call this afternoon at o'clock Ginger" Clark will twirl for the locals while Gordon Hickman, the Birmingham boy who is wearing the uniform of Robert Gllks, will oppose him. On account of the excellent game that is assured, the usual large Saturday afternoon crowds will be on hand.

Excellent Pitching.

The game was characterized by the ex- cellent pitching of Red Fisher and "scatter" sallee. The Shreveport twrler yielded but three hits the first two being clean, and the third an lnfield scratch that could have been prevented A base on balls yielded to Molesworth in the tenth proved his downfall.
 Sallee had everything in his shop and while he was hit safe half a dozen times the bingles were so well scattered, in all save one inning, that a single run could not be scored. In the fourth inning he was touched up for three safeties. Ab- stein, first up, hit safe to right. Graffius hit safe and Abstein went to third. Daley was safe on fielders' choice and Abstein went out between third and home Oyler gaining the put-out. King then hit safe and the bases were full with only one down Excellent pitching by Sallee pre- vented q run. Hess fould out to Matthews, and Powell hit an easy one to the pitcher This was the best chance to score that the Pirates had and when the game was not cinched. the doom of Fisher was sealed

Barons' Bad Start.


 The Coal Barons made a bad start in their efforts to land the game In the very first inning, Molesworth was sent to first when Fisher hit him with a pitched ball. Matthews attempted a sac rifice, failed, his effort resulting in a pop fly to Fisher. Montgomery then hit safe to right and Molesworth thinking that the ball was an easy out failed to move on, and was thrown out at second. Montgomery retired the side trying to pilfer second
 In the second and third inning Fisher moved the locals down in one, two, three order. In the fourth Molesworth, first up. was given a base on balls. Mat thews was again unable to place a sacr- fee, his efforts this time resulting fin strike out. Moesworth was then forced out at second by Montgomery's infield hit and Montgomery again retired the side trying to steal second. Up to this time Fisher was doing excellent work and Graffius was keeping the Barons clear of the keystone. From the fourth throughout to the ninth the one, two. three order prevailed, hit by Walters in the eighth, after two were down, not upsetting thls rule. on account of the fact that he went out trying to steal.
 When the Pirates failed to tally in the fourth, their next chance came in the eighth. When two were down, Abstein again hit safe. Graffius doubled by way of oyler to left, his hit being good for two bags Abstein was not cut off at third, and the ball that Gear felded to Mont gomery caroned out of the diamond By rapid fielding and accurate throwing. Ab- stein was killed at the plate.
 The Squeeze" Again.
 In the tenth the visitors went out In one, two. three order. The Barons, start ing off with the heavy end of the bat ting list, fared better. Molesworth, by patient waiting, drew a pass. Matthews this time placed down a beautiful sacrifice and Moesworth took second. Montgom- cry hit to right center and King. after a fine run dropped the ball that fell in his hands Molesworth went to third. When Meeks approached the stick the Pirates
