Quincy Scores.

Quincy scored in the second. Dang
lined out single after Undertook
had skied to Reichie. Bennett was
robbed Of a pretty hit to center by
tho sensational work OF Reichle and
then Walsh laced out a double that
brought Dang all the way home from
first.
In the third the real fire works
began when Rouse opened the round
with double to left centerfield
fence. Hill sacrificed and Bramble
threw the ball away, Rouse scoring,
while Hill went to second. Yeager
drew q base on balls and then it
was Anderson, who was there with
the stick for line drive to right field,
scoring Hill With man on sec
ond and one on first, Yeager tried to
pull off stunt that did not work,
going to Third. while Bramble was
holding the ball with the result that
he was caught by ten feet. Under
beck skied to Reichle and Dang ended
the scoring by grounding to Corri-
don.
Rouse was in great form although
he was touched for one more hit than
Quincy got off Brambie, he kept his
hits SO well scattered, that never more
than one came in the same inning
Quincy punched hits twice on Bramble
and all that saved the lean one from
an awful drubbing was the phenom
email work Of Reichle in centerfield
who covered left, center and right
gardens in every inning.
The score:

ers and several young ones have de-
veloped. He has good ball club and
has had to sign few players of late.
The result is that he signed the men at
a lower salary than the other man
ayers and the team is a good one at
that. Berte is likely to take slump
any time and then 1t will cost him
money to bolster up his team.
AS a means of arriving at the senti,

the clubs present President Justice
called upon each representative in
order and he was asked to state his
opinion regarding the salary limit.

Annls Takes one.

Any fan who had an idea that the
Quincy team was playing poor ball
and saw the game yesterday after
noon went home with different opin-
ion. The snappy fielding. the excel
lent pitching and timely hitting were
all that could be desired by the most
critical and Keokuk, although al
ways fighting, was really helpless all
through the game Rouse's work was
gilt edge and with perfect support
not a single Indian would have cross

the runs that gave the home team
the victory were the results of timely
and long hits.

QUINCY. ILL.,. June 10. (special)
Although the visitors outhit and out
fielded the home team Quincy was
able to win yesterday from the Keo-
kuk Indians by punching hits in the
second and third innings and the only
error that entered into the scoring on
Quincys . was the wild heave in
the third session by Bramble. The
score was 3 to 2. Sensational fielding
by Reichle in the center garden was
the feature of the contest. Walsh for
Quincy played poor game at third
and his two errors started the visitors
in their path around the diamond in
both the first and third innings. Both
Rouse and Bramble were in form but
the latter was outlucked. Landry's
hitting also featured the game.

Hofer Talks.

When Quincy was called upon by
President Justice Harry Hofer made
quite a lengthy talk in favor Of some
increase in the salary limit. Although
it was not his intention OF having the
limit raised in SO many words, but
rather to allow the clubs to remain
within a respectable limit If necessary
to promote and better the game or
to have a limit the maximum salary
now being paved by clubs in the
league, that is the salary limit to be
that amount paid by the team under
the most expense in players salaries.
Mr.. Hofer spoke of the change condi-
tons during the past few years bring
ing out the fast that 1t was impossible
to sign players at the same salary that
managers could obtain them some
time ago. He also said that a win
ming team in Quincy or any other
town was necessary and that II a
team gets away badly 1t Is hard to
bolster up without using the money
with which to do 1t. His arguments
were well received by those present
and were very heartily endorsed es-
pecially by Manager Boyle.

SALARY Limit
REMAINS SANE
Meeting and His Lone Vote
to Oppose Raise Was
Enough.
SEVEN WE'RE IN FAVOR
Almost Every Club in the League Are
in Favor Of Higher Limit
But Vote Had to be
Unanimous.


Lerford who was sent to represent
that Base Ball Association with but a
few words of instructions vote in
opposition to any raise or Increase
in the salary limit in any shape or
form held the high card at. the
midsummer meeting of the Central As
sociation held at the Mark Twain Ho-
tel In Hannibal last evening and
seemed to hold more power within his
grasp than the league executive. the
officers and the entire Central Associa-
ton. He held the body to the iron
clad constitution and bi-laws of the
Central Association and by SO doing
maed it impossible for the league to
raise the salary limit in any shape or
1t may be that in so doing Mr.. Led
ford Of Jacksonville. has shaped the
destiny of the Central Association and
that results will be felt in the future.
With seven cities in favor of raising
the salary limit or at least leaving it
at the maximum sum paid by the
various clubs the Jacksonville repre-
sentative opposed it. AS the meeting
was brought to termination there
was no change in the salary limit and
it still stands at $1,000. Mr.. Led
ferd was able to hold the winning
hand yesterday because the constitu-
ton provides that no raise in the
salary limit shall be made without a
unanimous vote.
Those Present.
The meeting was called early in the
evening at the Mark Twain with NJ. E.
Justice in the chair and John Hall as
secretary. When the roll was called
those responding were the following:

tive of that place.

tlemen there were members of the

/ resented by newspaper men. Ii add
tion to baseball directors.
Seven Over the Limit.
One thing disclosed in the meeting
and that was the fact that nearly
every team in the league was over the
limit. This was generally known but
there was some surprise at the state
ments made by several of the manag
ers. as it was thought that the teams
were very much higher thar
others While the figures in some in
/ stances would not be given in roun6

The annual meeting Of the Central
Association will be held the latter
part of September, a short time follow
ing the close of the league season. At
this time the pennant will be awarded

the President before that time the
next gathering will not be until that
time.

sterne Make. Motion.


Louis Sterne, Keokuk's representa-
tive at the meeting, brought out sew
eral strong points in his remarks and
SO impressed several Of the represent
tatives that when he made a motion
that the salary limit be raised to
$1,450 he was heartily seconded. The
second was made by Mr.. Worden OF
Ottumwa and it seemed favorable to
the majority present At this point
the increase in the salary limit Of the
Three-Eye league was brought up and
some thought that the Central Asso-
citation would get in the same rut and
be forced to increase the limit from
year to year. With this in view there
were heated arguments, Jacksonville
being the leader At this point Hough
suggested that the salary limit remain
the same and that the managers re-
main as near to it as possible which
would virtually mean that the Central
Association would have no salary linn
it. 1t was also suggested that the
maximum amount paid at the present
time in the league be made limit and
that the clubs could remain with their
present salary list or meet, but not
exceed, the maximum limit.

The Keokuk representatives at the
league meeting yesterday together
with Harry Hofer and John Hall went
to the Hannibal-Jack baseball
game and all were highly pleased with
the article of ball put up. Hannibal
has not appeared in Keokuk yet but
it can be said that Hough has the best
team in the league at the present
time. His men have the ginger and pep
and are always wide awake to the sit
uation.

Players Would Demand Raise.

Players Would Demand Raise.
The raise in the salary limit out.
right in the league had draw back
according to several of the managers
because of the fact that next year the
players would come and demand more
money and the fans would be getting
the same article of ball but there
would be more expense.
The eloquent remarks OF Manager
Hotter, however. coupled with the per-
suasive words of Frank Boyle, Louis
Sterne and Mr.. Wordeh could not
change the Jacksonville representa-
tives from following out his iron clad
instructions. Even in the face Of it
all the majority present seemed to be
and expressed themselves as favor
able to higher salary limit but a
unanimous vote was necessary to car
ry anything that would not hold the
Central Association to strict enforce
ment of the $1,000 limit. Manager
Berte was present towards the close
OF the meeting and agreed to carry the
news home and write President JUS
tice concerning the attitude of the
Hannibal directions. Before the meet
ing adjourned the matter of salary
was left In the hands of the President.
