COTTON STATES DISTRESS

Columbus, Miss. January 2O.-(Special.) Walter Weaver, president of the local baseball association and vice president of the Cotton States league, states that the proposition he submitted to the direc- tors at their meeting last December, which was that the clubs of the cir cult be restricted to five professional players and the balance of the team to be filled out with amateurs, has not yet been acted upon. It was the understanding that the matter was to be voted on by mall by the different directors, but the case seems to be in that dormant stage Columbus has played the game for two seasons with disastrous financial. results from both years. President Weaver and other prominent fans see no other fate for the local association, except one of termination and withdrawal from the cir cult, unless some proposition similar to the one proposed by the local president is accepted for another season Is folly from business standpoint. Each team in the circuit seems to have some troubles of their own and from the best informa- tion, obtainable the likelihood of a Cot ton States league for the coming spring and summer is burning at quite a dim mering flicker just at present. If the plucky little association is to be held together, something must be done with out delay.
