GOSSIP FROM THE
TRI-STATE TOWNS

HARRISBURG. Jan. 20.-BasbalI fans
here have not recovered from the solar
plexus blow given them by the Tri-
State League IN refusing to wipe out
he $500 individual salary limit. A gem
aral opinion prevails that this turn
down was for Harrisburg and no other
team because Of the fact that 10 do
away with the $500 allowed for any one
player would mean that Harrisburg,
with Frank Huelsman, the star outheld-
er. and other stars, would have a walk
over
Last season when il was reported that
other teams were exceeding the limit,
using all sorts of means TO get over the
salary figures. Harrisburg made no
complaint. but took their medicine. This
season all the teams lost all their stars
but Harrisburg. and from the start Of
forts were made to fix It 30 that Ifar-
rishurg would have to get rid OF their
best men.
Frank Huelsman has been sold 10 New
Orleans--at least that is what can be
looked for. What will be done to
9wacina, signed as first haseman, is
not known. One thing IS certain, he
win not sign for 5000 a month, and the
only hope OF landing this National
League star would be to make him cap
tain and pay an additional SIS which
tho league allows for the captain Of
each team.
In the event Of Harrisburg failing 70
land swacina Manager Heckert will try
and get a Western man. For Huels-
mans place It is probable that Camp
bell. Of the Decatur team OF the 1li-
rois-Iowa League. will be secured. lie
