WE GET VENT BUT
LOSE FORFEIT GAME
President King Makes a Ruling
On the Difficulty at
Van Vert.
JESSUP is NOT SATISFIED.
HE THINKS THE RULING INCON-
SISTENT AND WILL AGAIN CAR
RY THE MATTER TO LEAGUE
HEADQUARTERS.

| Manager Jessup Saturday afternoon
received a telegram from President
| King. of the Indiana Ohio league stat
| ing that Pitcher Wentz had been
awarded to the Richmond club, but the
| forfeited game at Van Vert Wednes-
day would stand according to the um-
pires ruling.
Although pleased over getting Wentz
Manager Jessup cannot understand the
decision which President King has
made. He thinks it is inconsistent.
He thinks that as Richmond's claim
to Wentz was good, Van Vert had no
right to attempt to use him. Jessup
wants to play the game over and he
will appeal to King with this object in
view.
1t may be that President King
based his decision on the fact that
Richmond refused to play at Van Vert
instead of allowing the Ohio team to
use Wentz under protest In some
leagues a fine of 500 is assessed
against a manager for refusing to play
when the umpire orders the game to
proceed.
Wentz will be ordered to report here
and in case he does SO will be given a
try out. Manager Jessup says that
Van Wert's claim to Wentz was a
trumped affair. He declares the let
err they claimed to have from the Wa
pakoneta pitcher was written on the
van Vert ball diamond

cry bill was paid in full and so well
pleased were the horsemen and exhib-

Charles Edward is /. record breaker.

running the distance under pull,
nearly all the way in $50 As. This
not only beats the best track record

BASEBALL GOSSIP.
(By ORTIZ

In case that Wentz reports here
Manager Jessup will be compelled to
cut down his playing list. On &C
count of his inability to hit Ridgely
will likely be let out.
Justices physician says that the
veteran will be unable to enter the
game again this season. This will
allow the second sack to remain in
Minzler's hands who though a faster
fielder is not the batter that Justice
is.
Jessup is anxious to have Fisher re-
main on third base in order that his
infield may be the same each game.
In case Conner keeps up his encourag-
ing work and Wentz makes good;
Fisher will play regularly at third and
not be compelled to give it up occas-
ionally and take his turn in the box.
The head on collision pulled off by
Ritter and Wiltermood in the first
inning Saturday should be a lesson to
them for the remainder of the season.
Such plays are not only costly in
runs but may prove injurious to the
players.
