WILKEs-BARRE, Pa. Aug IT.
Manager Stetler and all OF the players
signed by the Wilkes Barre Atlantic
League club who have previously play
ed under protected associations, have
decided to totally ignore theh warning
given them by President Farrell, Of
the New York State League. that they
must quit the Atlantics before August
20. President Lynch, of the Atlantics,
says that if the New York State
League desires to wage war on his
team, he is willing and ready 10 meet
the fray, and, as an opening gun, he
gave out certain inside baseball history
that is a revelation of some Of tho
methods of protected Dali as handled
by Farrell. who also is SECRETARY of

League and few outlaw leagues along
the coast Farrell has branded the
Atlantics as outlaws; placing them as
the only league by that definition in
the eastern part of the country.
President Andrew J. Lynch says on
good authority that the Tri-State
League is to drop from protected bal,
next season and that the Tri-State and
Atlantic Leagues are to Join hands ana
place teams in Scranton and maybe
one or two other good New York state
League towns. The league is to be
called the independent Tri-State.
President Lynch claims that the pres
ent war that protected ball has to fight
against outlaws is of FarrelTs own
making. Lynch claims that he was
defrauded of his WiliSes-Barre Club
stock and he had asked Farrell to bo

says a cable to the New York Sun.
Some time ago DIR. Hollander pub
lished In medical journals here details
Of a case of mental arrangement which
he had cured by trephining. Since
then he had continued his investiga-
tons in that direction.
He related the case of a boy Of six
teen whose overpowering wickedness
was removed along with a strip OF
bone from his skull. He was a liar, a
thief. a bully and a mischievOus de-
stroyer of property and was without
q sense of decency. He grew continu
Ously more dangerous until he was ar
ralgned In court for misdemeanor. At
Dr. Hollander's suggestion his head
was operated upon.
An incision was made on top and
carried vertically downward to each
ear. When the tissues above the right
ear were revealed signs of an old In
fury were found. Several trephinings
were made and the bone cut away.
The membranes of the brain showed
traces Of an old hemorrhage. The re-
gion was treated antiseptically and
the wound was closed. It healed, and
the patient became a reformed charac-
ter. He not only lost his immoral and
indecent propensities. but showed a
desire to please and help others and
was generally moral.
