which was brought to an early term

When darkness settled to such an
extent that the game had to be call
ed the Keokuk tackles could not
have continued any longer, for lack
of physical strength. Pease had
already been taken out of the game
and a substitute had been hurried
from the side line to supplant Elder.
1t was on tackle plays alone that
Burlington won. Throwing the heavy

time after time, Burlington shot

Nor could the Keokuk line repulse
the Burlington attack when straight
football was used in any OF the per

In each period except the third, when
Burlington counted twice.
In modern football Keokuk display

sible for Board Of Arbitration
to Rule in Favor Of Hi.
nois City.
CASH OFFER TO BE MADE
Justice Says That Baseball Men a.
Chicago Praised Central Asso-
citation Very
Highly.

1t was on a law point in baseball
that Quincy lost in its litigation be-
fore the arbitration board of the
national association of professional
baseball leagues This board, of
which President M. e. Justice of
the Central Association, is now a
member, held that it did not have the
jurisdiction of granting Quincy's re-
quest, and after listening to lengthy
arguments pro and con reverted the
matter back to the Central Associa-
ton for final settlement.
President Justice returned to Keo-
kuk late Friday night after wide
experience gained at the important
Chicago meeting. In briefly review
ing the situation. he said:
THE board of arbitration refused
to allow Quincy's request, holding
that the matter would have to be
settled by the league. A meeting
will be held in Galesburg on Novem-
Der 80 to take up the question, and
there is the possibility of COM
promise being effected on that date.
However if Quincy makes cash
proposition which is accepted, it
will only mean a fight in another cir
cult, likely the Three-Eye, for il
Quincy would be given berth in
that league one of the other clubs
would have to be ousted, precipitat-
ing trouble in that direction.
Il would rather see Quincy back
in the fold. 1t was the universal
opinion in Chicago that we have an
excellent circuit and they could not
understand why Quincy should want
to be released. That Quincy would
be better in the Central Association
than out was the opinion of well
known baseball men, who say that as
far as classification is concerned it
mattered but little to the people, who
only want to see good ball. They
contend that ball as satisfactory can
be furnished with salary limit of
$1,400 as with one of $4,000"
Regarding the final decision of
the board In the matter early morn
ing reports say: THE Quincy club
must stick for another year in it's
present society, the Central Associa-
tion. The club appealed for it's re-
lease to become member of the
Three-Eye league, and it is limited
that the owners will endeavor to buy
out Of the Central Association at an
early date"
What offer President Hofer is pre-
pared to make is conjectural. The
belief is quite general that the cash
proposition, if that is what it is to be,
will fall short of the $4,000. Wheth-
er sentiment will be worked up In
the cities against accepting any prop
osition whatever from Quincy is also
problematic.
Another matter will be brought up
at Galesburg, and one for which the
meeting was first called. is the adj
justment of the guarantee of both
Galesburg and Monmouth. Baseball
men are quite satisfied that little will
come of this, and that the deficiencies
of the two clubs in the opening year
will be overlooked.
