Wichita Beacon: This umpire busi-
ness is a delicate subject and one which
this department seldom touches upon.
| It is a stock howl for losing team
to blame it on the jumps, and 1t also
is true that umplres are human ana
prone to make mistakes just as other
mortals are. Yet Wichita has suffered
more than any team should during the
past two or three weeks especially. Ii
the umpires on Mr.. O'Neilrs staff are
not competent. then it behooves him,
as the head of Class A organization,
to get a few of that calibre. Wichita
fans have witnessed their team defeat
ed twice in the last two days, through
mistakes upon the part of the UNI
pires In Saturdays game, the mistake
was so plain that it is hard to con-
ceive how Derrick could possibly have
made it with his eyes open, and yet 1t
cost the locals the game. But for his
yellow decision at third. the score never
would have been tied and Wichita
would have won in nine innings by a 2
to l count Yesterday he missed a third
strike, which was just as costly. Any
umpire is liable to miss a strike, and
there might be some excuse for that
one, but 1t comes too frequently against
Wichita to suit. Clarke, too, broke up
q rally by calling Hughes out in the
fifth when it looked as If he were well
across the bag when Hunter caught the
ball. 1t certainly was as good as tie.
The next two men went out, with Two
men on, but Westerzil doubled his next
time up, and two runs would have come
in on the hit had it been made in the
inning previous. The team is out of the
fight for the pennant. but it is entitled
to the same rights that the pennant
cbasers are. It would be higher in the
race if it were not unfortunate in the
treatment given it by the judges of play.
Haskell was away to the bad in Den

Lincoln News: Nunemacher is still
catching for Dubuque, and there Is a
hitch on getting hold of him. Du-
buque has a new manager, and he has
declined to recognize old agreements,
made with his predecessor. When a
player is sold with the option of re-
purchase the national commission pro-
vides a form which must be signed.
This provides and redites that the
player Is sold with the option that
may be exercised by the selling club
on August 20 of repurchase at that
price, but further provides that the
player shall remain with the club he
has been with until the end of the play
ing season. This proviso Is intended
to preventing farming. but as a mat
ter of fact the verbal agreement in
all such cases is that the man shall be
turned back on that date If he is want
ed. President Despair thinks that
Nunemacher will be along in a few
days, as he had a talk with the presi-
dent of the Dubuque club today, and
the latter recognizes that If he wants
any similar favors in the future, will
have to come through. He promised
to wire the manager at Bloomington,
where the club is playing, to send
Nunemacher along. Nuremacher has
been hitting and fielding finely.
