Some Gossip by the Fans

CTS became angered because Umpire Red" Ehret allowed Butts to score the winning run in the tenth inning. and made a dash for him. Ehret had his back turned and did not see a man thrown out at first. which would have ended the inning. The fans in the right field bleachers roared their dis approval and mob started toward the field. A high railing makes it hard to crowd sufged toward the entrance. The frail bannisters along the side gave way and about 100 men and boys were hurled to the ground, some falling fifteen feet. with the crowd bling down on top of them. Con Walsh, Seattle s pitcher, who had run out to head off the crowd, was knocked down and trampled upon in the crowds frenzy His left arm was badly bruised and swollen Herbert Gilchrist. aged fif- teen, fell fifteen feet and is badly bruised. He was unconscIous for a time Walter Lynch, l3year old boy. subject to heart attacks, tainted from the excitement and a score of men and boys were badly bruised, but none seriously nurt. The collapse of several persons distracted the atten- tion of the crowd and Umpire Ehret fled to the club house. sHe' remained there until the mob lad scattered. AS an aftermath of the affair, Manager DNgdale later in the day was handed letter, just received from President Lucas, announcing Ehret's dismissal The letter was here before the riot oc- cured Jack Drennan, one-time Port land outfielder. will succeed Ehret.- Seattle Post

itors as the Atlanta. Memphis and Lit- tie Rock clubs have been in belabor- ing their guests, they should, at least, pull out of the rut of fourth place and press close on the heels of second po- sition.--New Orleans Picayune.
 The above is not surprising. It is in line with the policy ui the Montgom- cry Baseball Association--a policy that in the first place has been so unjust to local fans as to instill in them in- difference and disgust
 In the next place. the policy of the local association is unjust-to use a very mild word-to the Montgomery women who bought season tickets. In plain language these ladies have paid their money for something that they will not get. When they paid for those tickets they naturally expected that the local baseball association would keep faith and have the seventy games scheduled for the home grounds played here.
 Then again. there is the injustice done the people who paid for the con sessions at the local ball grounds Un- douptedly they have paid for some thing dhey have not received. The Coca Cola Company at theb beginning of the present season bought the re- freshment privilege for several years. paying the sum of S3.500 and taking the transfer of the Atlanta and New Orleans games they have been knocked out of six days or one weeks sales.
 The same thing applies to the pur- chasers of the scorecard privilege. and while the people who paid for the ad- vertisencents on the fences do not suf- fer in the same proportion as the re- freshment and score card people. still they are also indirectly &fected.
 Then there is a loss of hundreds of dollars to the Traction Company, At an average of 600 people game there would have been $500 people at the six games- At 10 cents. car fare go- ing and corning. this means sS60 to the street railway people.

That Atlanta Series,

IUHt AtIHMta SNf1cBs
 It seems that the gods took a hand in the Atlanta Montgomery series. It so happened that neither side won, and neither side made much money. Mont gomery won the first game in spite of the fact that Atlanta would have been victorious had no rain fallen. Atlanta won the second game overwhelmingly. Yesterday, the two played a tie. Rain cut down the attendance to a small figure.
 The transferrence of the games was wrong, and it seems that some power other than d mere physical one, took a hand in the affair. And we are not superstitious, either. Birmingham Age-Herald.

A COMMON CARRIERS DUTY.
Dacided That it is Not Fulfilled Un-

Passenger.

Atlanta, Nov. 15.-''A common
carrier does not fulfill its legal duty
until it provides a seat for each pas
'senger," is the decision rendered to-
day by the Georgia court of appeals.
The decision was rendered in a suit
for damages brought against the
Georgia Electric & Railway company
of Atlanta by DR.. Oscar Lyndon,
who, it is alleged, was injured by the
sudden starting Of a car in which he
was standing.
"There can be, no question:" the
decision continues, "that it is one
Of the duties Of a common carrier to
furnish its passengers with seats and
that such failure to furnish a seat
may be proximate cause Of an IN
jury"
