HOT ROW STARTED
IN SOUTHERN LEAGUE
Sulphurous Meeting Results Over Pro-
test of Recent Game-Directors
Finally Come to Agreement.
Schedules Arranged

The meeting of the Southern State league
last night will go down in history as re-
membrance of the convention held in Sacra-
mento in the year of 1888, when the Legislators
threw waste receptaces at each other and
climbed upon chairs, defying each other with
clinched fists. The cause of the riot was the
outcome of the protested game between the
Thistles and Rivera teams, in which both
managers paid the penalty of being fined by
President George c. Reeves. Nagle. who is the
official secretary of the league, challenged
Peter Hansen to a duel. Words that would
not look good in q family journal were passed
between these two warning managers.
Umpire Butler took a hand in the proceed
ings by reporting the fact that he COM
PEELED to fine players II. Graham and Pitcher
De Frett of the Florence Graham club for too
vehemently protesting adverse decisions. His
rulings were upheld by the directors and the
above players will be compelled to pay their
fines before participating in any further South
ern State league contests. To add fuel to the
flames a warm debate took place between Les
Welton and President Reeves press agent
notices. and Reeves frankly stated that Welton
was incapable Of performing his duties. At
this juncture Secretary c. A. Maggie presented
his resignation, saying that because of opposi-
ton both home and abroad he would retire
from the baseball field. Manager Murphy, the
heavyweight of the Redondo team, sat down
on the proceedings by moving that Maggie
resignation be refused and that Press Agent
Walton be instructed to perform his duties in
manner acceptable to the president
The schedule committee submitted the sched-
ule after oil was poured the troubled waters.
while 'Scotty" Allen asked for an adjournment
of five minutes.
Games scheduled for next Sunday are:

Pat Phillips, who was released Tues

I'm a game at Visalia last Sunday
between the team Of that place and
Bakersfield l would like you to give
Hughey Clarity, Eagle, Huff and Mast
a little mention in The Herald, because
they deserve 1t. We faced the strong
est amateur team in the San Joaquin
valley and defeated it by a score of IL
to a. HUFF caught fine game, as he
always does, and pegged every man
who attempted to steal base on him.
He had his batting eye with him, MAX
ing two hits out of four trips at bat.
Gus Mast, who is playing short stop,
played an errorless game and made
several sensational catches. Clarity,
although l cannot say he played any
better than the rest of the boys, yet
was the star player of the afternoon.
He finished the last four innings, and
not a single player reached second on
him. He also sent out three-bagger
with two men on the bases. The fans
of Bakersfield think we are the real
goods, and l do not think they would
take the world for us. The manager
fixed up a dinner for us last Sunday
after the ball game"

3" ENRY BERRY left last night at
II 1880 for San Francisco, whittier
H he had been called in conference
with President ]. Cal Ewing of the
Coast league Berry was unable TO
state the reasons for the summons,
but it is not believed that they have
anything to do with Ewing's recent
threat to resign following criticism
of his official actions. While in the
north Berry will take up the Olson
embroglio, and will endeavor' to bring
the affair to a settlement. Hen win
be absent for several days, probably
returning with the Angels when their
series with Portland closes next week.
In the reams of advance stuff sent
out by John l.. Sullivan, who is due
here next week for a vaudeville ap-
pearance with his oldtime foe, Jake
Kilrain, there is much of sound advice
to youngsters who dream of big purses
and a soft thing in the pugilistic game.
Also there are several items relating
to his personal experience in and out
of the ring that are worth mention
ing. John L. day by day lives over
the time when his was the greatest
name in the glove game, and some of
his recollections are decidedly inter-
esting The tough old ringster of the
earlier generation processes a profound
contempt for the wild ways and news
paper regulations of many of the pres
ent socalled ring stars. He is an ad-
vocate of the stern ring contests
wherein gloves are barred, and it's a
fight to the finish, with a cheer for the
winner and oblivion for the loser In
his "reminiscences Sullivan has prepared
list of 100 men whom he has knocked
out inside of four rounds, mentioning
the small item that he put to sleep
over 100 men in one year. What a COM
parlson with the present methods of
arranging about four big bouts with
correspondingly fat purses each year.
as the top-notchers are allowed to do!
Captain Dillon's wonderful genius for
team work and steady hammering
along the same line is nowhere better
illustrated than in the present series
at Portland. How many other fielder
ca 1tains of the Coast league could send
in the crippled aggregation Cap Frank
is putting on the diamond each day,
and yet convey to his supporters at
home cheering news of the belief that
his team will win its share of games
and come home with colors flying? 1t
is to be wondered at that the Angels
are not dropping hard toward the bot
they still stick close to the leading
place. When all the cuts and bruises
are healed, and the stiffness is removed
from lame arms and legs, the Angels
are due to put up a style of ball that
will give the supporters of the other
teams of the league the cold shivers.
Watch for the day when the Seraphic
band finally hits it's stride. The Angels
are the strongest finishers in the Coast
league.
Tomorrow will mark the reappear-
ance on the diamond of Bernie" Ber-
nard, last year one of Berrys sta1
fielders, This player is regarded by
local fans as one of the best men in
the Coast league. Bernard will don a
Vernon uniform and probably will go
to center field, sending Stovall to the
bench. This is no disgrace to the lat
ter. who except for occasional raw
slips, has been playing good ball this
season; but Hogan realizes that the
