ATLANTIC LEAGUE
WANTS PROTECTION

HAZLETON. Nov. 17--James Brady,
last years manager Of the Hazleton
team Of the Atlantic League. will rep
resent this citv at the meeting Of that
body at Easton. Sunday. November %.
TO decide upon the circuit for the sea-
son of 1909. As the managers have
received notice To bring with them a
list of the PLAYERS they wish to reserve.
it is believed that the league win next
year operate under the protection OF
the national agreement. This is what
the managers want. for then they can
retain their PLAYERS and a franchise
will be worth something. Last year
players jumped" so frequently that
managers had to be on the constant
looko-t for new material to kee their
clubs intact
It is believed here that Allentown will
not be q member of the league next
year. because the club dill not pay. 1t
is also hinted that an effort might be
made to eliminate Easton and admit
Scranton and Reading, which would
give a circuit requiring shorter jumps
than last year.

of reliable men, The American League
will have the double umpire system in
1909, and President Ban johnson soon
will announce tho names OF the men
who viii compose his staff.
The latest umpire signed by the Ma
tional League is S. +. Cusack. who has
had experience in the American As.
Cusack is a Chicagoan and was highly
recommended 70 Pulliam by managers
and PLAYERS who live in that city. Last
season the National League had six
umpires. so the engagement Of Cusack
gives them one more arbitrator. provid.
cd that Jimmy Johnstono does not re-
sign or get the hook.

him to ginger up n man. Emslie. Rig

Unless the Interstate Commerce Com

that that bane Of the actor existence,

houses" in water-tank towns must meet

The commission has been told by a
petition filed by the National AssOcia-
ton Of Theatrical Managers that IN
less Congress gives the railroads the
right to make special rates to the pro-
fess.on, many one-night stands all over
the country meet be cut out. In dbl
ton a petition also has been flee by
the Southern Association Of Theater
Managers representing over 100 places
Of amusement. principally the sO-Called
one-night stands. IN the South If the
prayers for a special amusement rate
are not granted IL is recited that all
these places Will be deprived Of many

lose employment.
The railroad companies, II appears,
are willing to grant the special rate, but
were forced to withdraw them in April
last on account Of an unfavOrable oeci-
sion Of the commission.
