Traction Company Wl-

Buyers Must Be Local, or Deal Will Not Be Made-Other Oners Turn ed DOwn-Game Sure to
 Stay Here.

The baseball franchise of Mont gomery is on the market, and 1t Is probable that the sum of $S,000-or possible lower figures than that will buy it. The Montgomery Base ball Association at present IS a stock company capitaizetd at ssooo; ne the 'nT The e009' Traction s1HHn' Company, owning most of the stock. virtually owns and They pay the freight and pull the strings.
 Baseball in itself has never been a paying proposition in Montgomery. Traction Company had lost money on the team. This loss, however has been more than made good to the Traction Company by the profits ac- ing the season just closed, s3,500 was isS: is said Hy the he Traction Company has made a much larger sum than than trnm rnls Company did not have to shoulder the responsibility of operating the ball team it would clear more than double the sum now. made on the street car line from fares to and from the ball lot. Now this is precisely what the Traction Company Is trying to do-sell the franchise and attend money out of the crowds going to and returning from the games.
 We are not in the baseball busi- ness" said an official of the Traction Company yesterday. and If we can get our price, we will be glad to sell the baseball franchise"
 Must Be Local.
 Several offers have already been made for the local franchise, one from Mobile and one from Chattanooga and the Mobile offer was made by pr. Harry T. Inge and the Chattanooga offer by the same people who were in terested in baseball there before that franchise came to Montgomery in 1902 Neither offer has been nor will be ac- not sell to anybody outside of Mont gomery unless a guarantee Is made ny the purchasers to have the same play ed on their line in Montgomery.
 There is a possibility of stock company being formed by several, prominent !siness men of this city to buy the franchise from the Traction Company. In addition to the stock owned by the Traction Company, tain business men of the city. Any of these minority stockholde., ., could. or course. block the sale if they wanted to- but the chances are that If deal to unload the Traction Companys stock could be arranged, there would be no hitch or friction caused by the minority stockholders. ,,,
 If the sale is made. however, 1t Will be with the proviso that the games are to be played on the line of the Montgomery Traction Company. ln case there Is no sale, baseball during the season of 1907, will be run just Ts 1t has been for the past four years, the
