TRI-STATE SALARY
RULE UNPOPULAR
Bench Managers Object to
Rule Regard ne Extra Pay
for Captains

When the next meeting Of the Tri-
State League is held in Harrisburg on
February a. there viii be several i'm
portant matters for discussion aside from
the formulating of the seasons schedule.
Considerable opposition has arisen over
the rule adopted at the last meeting al
lowing the payment OF an extra S25
above the salary limit to the captains
of teams. This rule was made without
regard to whether the clubs were man.
aged by playing or bench leaders, and
considerable dissatisfaction is being ex-
pressed by the bench managers who are
plainly getting the worst Of the deal
Manager Heckert is one Of the strong
est professors against the rule, and IL
is expected to be opposed by Marty Ho-
gan, of Lancaster; Ashenback of Az
toona, and Stetler, of Trenton. the four
bench managers who are getting the
worst Of the ruling. Under the rule clubs
with playing managers who receive sala-
ries Of any figure can also hire another
player and appoint him captain at
salary of s225 month. This gives Johns
town with Curt Weigand, Winiamsport
Clarence with Bill Coughlin and Reading
with Clarence Foster big advantages.
money than the original limit allows
And two old heads on a team can GER
tainly do more than one leader who is
playing for the salary limit afforded by
also accepting the captainship
In order to equalize the matter it has
been suggested that the rule be changed
and that only teams with bench mana
gers be allowed to hire captains at the
ayers must make the manager also cap
tain of the team. The question is sure
to come up at the next meeting Of the
league
The Wilmington Franchise.
When seen regarding the admttance
of York into the Tri-State. Manager
George w. Heckert said it was the best
move TO make If Wilmington is out OF
the question. Manager Heckert said;
II know that the York people are anx-
ious to again place a Tri-State club in
that city. the business men both for the
sport and the publicity that is gained
by having a club in such a league as
the Tri-State. Recently efforts were made
to start an athletic association to con-
duet baseball, and from the encouraging
reports I do not believe there will be the
least bit Of trouble in securing enough
financial backing to place the best kind
of team in the field As soon as the
word is said the Tri-state bond Of 5000
will be Forthcoming and then the Yorb
people will look around for a capable
manager who will make # warm for 9th.

will be a great rival of the York club

The Reading boys are all athletic built,
and their aspirations for winning was as
coeval as the Springs team Despite the
fact that this is the fourth game they
have ever played, they put up a splendid
exhibition and "a few more weeks prac-
tice will make their playing well worth

game. and each one seemed TO pick the
Dutchmen as their favorites. The game
was tricky and catchy. and It would take

to catch on to some of the passes made by
both teams.
"Giggling" seiman had "em" while he
was at goal, and IL anyone saw him with
a lamentable look on his face he should
make another guess. Several changes
were made in the regular lineup owing
to the fact that Beatty had a sprained
ankle In the first half Toppin played
at halfback; McElwee. centre, and Stod-
dard second rush. During the second half
Toppin played at goal and Manning took
centre. The Reading club has been coach-

his desire that they come to this city

AustraIasianS Cheered by Fact
That Trade in United States

Under date of August I. 1908. Con-
sui General John r.. Bray, of sydney.
transmits a copy Of Dalgcty's Annual
Wool Review for Australasia. for 1908
and 1909, from which the following
statistics relative to the United states
are taken:
"Thc United states OF America, with
a wealthy population Of nearly 90
| GOO, 900, is now the largest Wool-con-
Stunning country in the world. 1t is
claimed that the wages earned in
North America are double those in
Great Britain, two ANA a half times
greater than in France, and three
times what they are in Germany. For
tunately for Australia the heavy i'm
port duties levied upon wool, though
enabling the United States flock mas
ters to obtain moro for their domes-
tie clip than il IL intrinsically worth,
have not resulted in any material in
tere9t in the locally CAmerican)
grown wool, which in 1904 amounted
to 29l, 1882 pounds and in 1908 to
3ll13S.321 pounds.
OF the wool imported into the I'm
lied States from the United Kingdom
the major portion Is grown in hat
country, FOR the American buyers have
long ago made Australasia their di-
rect source of supply for class l woods.
For instance, during the year 1905
the total purchases Of Australasian
wool in London for the United States
amounted to but i49, 600 bales, where
as during that year they secured no.
600 bales in the Austlalasian mark

from tho River Plate during the same
period amounted to 5000 bates. The
total imports of class woods into the
United states during the last five
Years were as follows, in pounds, 1904,

1T viii he seen that during 1908
the United States took but little more
than halt the average quantity of class
