The Nashville American sizes the Barons up as follows: Vaughn begins the campaign with a squad that looks good. With one or two exceptions, he has no weddings, and it may be said right now that the Barons will keep the others going to get a verdict over them. They are not only good at fielding and hitting, but have three very strong pitchers In Wilhelm, Clark and Ragan."
 It all sounds well enough, but locally the fans cannot see wherein Vaughn has a single weakling.
 The Nashville American thus sarcasti- cally refers to the recent boast of one Billy Smith: We will win or bust said Billy Smith just before the game at Bir- mlngham Tuesday afternoon. The detona- ton was plainly heard in this city,

GOOD-NATURED RIOT
 AT OPENING IN NEW YORK.

New York, April 1.-The first game oi the season between the New York and Philadelphia National league teams was forfeited to Philadelphia, to o. For some unexplained reason there were no police on the Polo grounds today and the crowd surged on the field during the second halt of the eighth inning. The players were unable to continue, but Umpire Klem, in stead of immediately calling the game and giving it to Philadelphia, waited un- til fifteen minutes had expired. A rounds man and three patrolmen in the mean while came upon the grounds, but they were unable to do anything with the un- ruly mob, some of the members of which amused themselves by throwing bottles glasses and cushions in all directions. The roundsman told Roger Bresnahan of the local club he had orders not to interfere with the crowd and the demonstration turned into a good natured jolification. Soon Umpire Klem announced that he had forfeited the game to Philadelphia The score was 3 to 0 in favor of the visitors.

AMERICAN LEAGUE.
NATIONAL LEAGUE.

In all leagues, save the American as sociation which opens on the 17th inst, operations were on yesterday afternoon.
 The formal beginning in the American. the National and the Cotton States leagues was nagurated yesterday after noon, there occurring four games in the American, three in the National, and two in the Cotton States
 The games in the majors were charac- terized by unusually large attendances and severe cold. The game scheduled for Boston between the Boston and Brooklyn clubs was necessarily postponed on account of the bitter cold, and in De- troit Umpire Sheridan performed his duty in an overcoat.
 Despite the cold weather some splen- did games were played That was beau tifu contest between St. Louis and the White SoX, the former winning by a score of l to O. New York. with difficulty, triumphed over Washington, and Detroit defeated it's old and bitter rival Cleve- land Mullin worked out splendidly for Detroit, but Liebhardt, the old Memphis star, was rapped for fair. A fourteen ming game was played between Philadel- phia and Boston. the latter winning easily in the fourteenth.
 The sensation in the National league was that at the Polo grounds where the crowd fiocked over the field preventing play and throwing cushions and bottles The game was forfeited to Philadelphia which aggregation had practically won out already. Chicago won easily from St. Louis, Overall being a complete enigma. Cincinnati defeated Pittsburg in the ninth inning, Buck" Ewing pitching an excellent game throughout

Nashville, April 11.-Here is what that young sporting writer in Birmingham will say today: Had it not rained Bir- mingham would have won; the elements dealt kindly with the men of Johnny Dobb.Y
 While 1t is doubtful! whether the rain saved the Nashville crew or the Brmipg- ham aggregation from defeat. the fact remains that 1t rained. Both teams re- ported at the park, in spite of the fact that after 12 o'clock the drizzle began. Just before the time for the opening of the game rain was falling heavily. The day was cold, too. and Umpire Pfenninger instantly ruled that the struggle was off.
 The Barons and the Boosters returned to town and spent the evening around the hotels, telling stories and relating experiences. A little supper was served to the members Of both aggregations, and the enemies of tomorrow sat down like lambs together
 The rain came as disappointment to 0 large number of Nashville fans. On ac- count of the victory of the locals yester- day afternoon it is a certainty that the attendance this afternoon would have been large. The game is very popular this year-more so. in fact. than since that year long ago when Nashville won its last pennant. Local experts pick the Barons to finish high up. Vaughn has a bunch that hits and fields like veterans, which most of them are. In addition there are three great pitchers and one youngster who promises much

 On account of the length of the article, it cannot be published. This, the first verse, will give an idea, however. of what it smacks of; "The Barons don't hustle the way that they should, when Oyler is out of the game, they aren't so clever at splitting the wood, when Oyler is out of the game

natural exception of Frank, the Dutch. People in Birmingham think the Picay- une right, in part.
 The following causes the local fans to wonder whats the matter with Shreye- port. "Considerable interest was shown in yesterdays game at Birmingham, and the majority of the fans wanted to see the Barons defeated"
 Seven is a majority of the Shreveport fans.
 The Atlanta papers are still endeaVor- ing to explain just wherein the Coasters lost the first game to Birmingham. Give it up, boys. The Georgian attempts to appease the fans by declaring that before the season is over Atlanta will defeat Birmingham. which, 1t is believed, will pan out correctly
 The Montgomery Advertiser, in com menting lucidly on the first Atlanta Montgomery game. states that the defeat was not so bitter because Birmingham lost to Nashville on the same afternoon. Such consolation cannot be givin this morning. however. for Birmingham dio not lose yesterday.

 The writer does not say whether or not she is acquainted with Mitze. It is prob able, however, that she is. The sporting editor is preserving the entire copy for Oyler, however.
