Montgomery, July 24-Quiesser. for Memphis, gave remarkable exhibition of pitching this afternoon. Until the be- ginning of the eighth inning not single hit had been made by the locals.

Out1feEder Hogan Yancey Signed;
 Release Is Probable For N' GiIvrdy
RATES BLOCKS DEAL WITH NEW ORLEANS FOR ROBE AND CASH
 coNslDERATIoN-oTHER NEWS PRoBABLE-NO ELLAM OFFER.

Yesterday at noon, Birmingham ac- quired the services of Hogan Yancey, an outfelder of Binghamton of the New York State league. who, according to re- ports. is an exceedingly hard hitter and a spectacular base runner.
 The consideration was $50 cash. The outfelder Is expected to reach Birming- ham Monday.
 The coming of Yancey means in all probability the release of Bill McGilvray, who is having his first bad season Me Gilvray has not shown his natural form fin the south. His hitting has been be- low par, though his present gait, .26o, is not bad considering the excellence of the pitchers of the south. The big fellow too, has not been in the best physical condition on account of the heat of this climate to which he could not become adapted. So. all in all, the big gardener, who came to Birmingham with a brilliant reputa- ton. failed to meet the great expecta- tions of the fans
 McGilvray is exceedingly popular in personal way. He is refined to degree and there IS no one but who will declare his opinion that no player has taken the slump of the Barons more to heart than he.
 Something of Yancey.
 From reports that come of Yancey he IS Q sensational performer, with ability to field. hit the ball timely, run the bases exceptionally well and perform in other ways as an "A No. r man Is expected
 for .Qg son he was in the Connecticut state league. from where he was drafted by Binghamton. In the New York state circuit he has made good with rush, and from the reports which Molesworth has had he will prove a great help In the present crisis.
 In AS games, Yancey has hit .3z2 and aelded .s76. He has stolen 21 bases and made 10 sacrifice hits. He has hit three triples. 12 doubles and four home runs. His best game was on June 2S' when he made three hits in three times up' scored three runs and stole two bases. Two of these hits were home runs.
 If Yancey fulhls expectations he will make a splendid man in Dixie.
 Raftis-Rohe Deal.
 There was a deal on yesterday TOT the exchange of Raftis of Birmingham for Rohe of New Orleans.
 Frank was very anxious to secure the Baron. and offered money consideration to boot
 Rohe. on account of the hammering which he is receiving in New Orleans, was perfectly willing to locate in Bir- mingham. But Raftis did not feel so kindly toward New Orleans, and refused to don a Pelican uniform.
 Naturally, Raftis is much better ball pIayer than Rohe, but at the present time he is an awful slump. This caused the local association to heed the advances of Frank.
 Other News Probable.
 From what can be learned there are other probable changes, but Just what these are, are as yet kept hidden.
 From reports heard, however, it is prob shle that a new catcher will come to Baronville.
 Tn this connection it might be stated that no recent trustworthy offer has been made for Ellam.

 Down in the cellar again.
 Once more Birmingham and Memphis entertain with a game of leap frog
 And they might leap again today, for Nashville meets the Memphii at Red Elm. Monday these rivals for the salted down championship of the cellar meet at West End.
 Then, no doubt. there will be a tearing of hair and neither garments.
 All of which Is predatory to the state- ment of another Baron defeat.
 It came yesterday afternoon at the hands of New Orleans, an aggregation as weak and helpless in every depart- ment as we are.
 But old Breitenstein, the grand old man" of the league, was in splendid con- dition. It was his lon day. in every re- spect, and the hitting Clevelanders would have experienced difficulty In tear ing down his adamantine defenses.
 AS a result of his brilliant. twirling we got only four hits and no runs.
 New Orleans got four runs
 The first of these resulted indirectly from an error by Bowen, who made praiseworthy effort to retire Lindsay at first after the Pelican had singled over second.
 With the runner on third. Breitenstein hit safely to center.
 Manuel met his waterloo in the fifth. Dexter opened with a single over short and went to second and third on the outs of Demont and Lindsay.
 Then Schriver. Bretenstein and Weimer hit in succession, all three bingles being of the scratch variety. But they count ed just the same.
 Well. the Peicans got two runs here.
 The features of the game were
 d). The pitching of Breitenstein. He held the Barons to four badly scattered hits.
 CD. The hitting of Breitenstein He snoasbed three safe ones to the three fields, and drove in two runs. He was at bat three times
 Demontreville performed splendidly around the keystone, so splendidly, In fact that I am inclined to believe that he has encountered some fountain of youth. or some master whose iron hand drives him to his daily task.
 At any rate, 1t is not the same De- montreville who drew $500 per month from .bo looaI association last year.
