Joplin Miners promises to undergo
radical changes. Four new players at
| the least, it seems, are to be annexed
! to the team. With the acquisition Of
| these men the team would go into the
championship race equipped to contest
a first division place. The lineup will
probably be settled by tomorrow night.
Ole Olson, one of the star players on
last seasons Miners, has until noon to-
day to report or send word that he Will
report. In case he does neither, fine
of $50 will be placed on him and he
will be suspended for the season. Olson,
in letters to friends in the city, has
intimated that he is perfectly satisfied
to work in his fathers general nfer-
chandise store = in Kansas unless he
hears the elink of large change in his
pay envelope. Wilkinson, also on last
years lineup, has sent notice that he
will report either today or tomorrow.
Wilkinson had the poorest average OF
any pitcher in the association last
year. He won four and lost 10 games,
making his average .235. Wilkinson
played in hard luck last year and many
of his games lost were won y close
scores He has given no intimation ct
the condition he is in this year and II

In case he is not sold to another team,
Fillman will probably play in this city,
