had little trouble this year in his
league. Some Of his umpires are not
so good as one would. like, but with the
big leagues screaming their demand for
good men the incompetency of a couple
of arbitrators is no great reflection on
Mr.. Powers. To beat Mr.. Powers this
year some tall work will have to be
done, II he wants the job again.
The magma charta' the ballplayers
are said to be ready to present to the
National Commission contains nothing
but what is reasonable. Baseball is
becoming-in fact is nova great busl-
ness from a financial standpoint. The
success of the game depends largely on
the ability of the players. The latter,
however, though they do draw big
salaries, do not get in many cases what
- they would be worth in another busl-
ness with the same drawing qualities.
Magnates control men as if they
were slaves: in fact, they are baseball
slaves. If a man kicks on salary the
"a need not pay the player
simply allowing him to remain idle.
The man can play with no other club.
The Civil War was brought about
through slavery. A baseball civil war

Just to show how the feelings of the
managers and players stand on this
salary question well quote what hap
pened in an Eastern League dressing
room. One of the finest outhelders in
the league had missed a fly that day.
RIe had refused to sign unless he got
his money, and didn't until the day
the season opened.
IT suppose some of the star outfield-
ers will be after a raise next year,
sarcastically said the manager.
s1f they do they'll get It," came back
the outfielder.
RI the manager decided not to give
the raise the out1elder would be beaten
or not play. This condition should be
changed.
The Pittsburg papers are taking a
fling at ohn Miller, saying that Nc
Kechnje has it all over John. Dots
Miller. with his bad knee, is certainly
not the boy he was last year. Give
him the winters rest and we'll bet IL
Dreyfuss puts him on the market he
won't go to the minors. Pittsburg is
getting into a class with Cincinnati
and st. Louis with their newspaper
men who run the city's ball hubs.
Seton Hall College may have two
brothers. the Gallen boys, Tommy and
Bert, as a battery for it's baseball team
next year, or, if not, the following
wear. Tommy, who is one of the best
catchers hereabouts, starts his second
wear at the Institution. Bert, the
Young pitcher who made such a name
for himself at the st. Joseph "a
rochial School, is starting his hrst ear.
Pert gives promise of being one the
best pitchers ever urned out in this
section.
Larry Sutton, the far-famed scout
of the Superbas, was in the press BOX.
He was more than pleased when Dalloh
made his home-run drive. Dalton Ger
