- TILL another reason for divorce is
that we bring less intelligence TO

Nothing further was given out, but it
is a foregone conclusion that this will be

that an entirely new plant will be erected
Ly the time the season of 1911 starts.
This will be great news for the fans, and
il insures permanent home for the Ma
tionals at the best possible location in

The directors seen after the meeting ap-
peared to he greatly pleased over the out

king IN BAD LIGHT.
Chicago Player Opposed American
Association in Kansas City.

CINCINNATI. Oaio. March 3.-New evil
dence has just reached the hands of men,
bers of the national base ball commits
sion against the reinstatement of Catcher
John King of the Cubs. 1t concerns the
base ball organization in Kansas City.
which King controlled. He was the sec
rotary and treasurer. and therefore fought
the American Association on the Satur-
DAYS and Sundays when other teams
played the Kansas City Club on the home
grounds.
Information has come to the commits
sion from members and officials of the
American Association, all of whom say
that inasmuch as King was an official of
the base ball league there, which offered
free and open fight to the association,
they feel that he has done organized base
Gall serious injury. He advertised him.
self as the star attraction. say these adj
vices Not only did he deal a body blow
To base ball III this way. but he TOOK
many hundreds of dollars away from the
organization. In doing this he used his
personal popularity in Kansas City to
cripple the American Association.
Since il has been called to the attention
of the members of the national commits
sion that the Kansas City man was one
of the ringleaders of the organization
there his trouble has taken on a serious
turn He does not deny that he was the
secretary and treasurer of that body, nor
does he refute the fact that he and his
teammates took the field on days on which
the American Association clubs were
scheduled 10 play. In accepting the Office
and in actually directing the activities of
the outlaw league. base ball men say
that King has got into such deep water
that his offense is almost objectionable.
The commission has failed to hear from
President Murphy who was to provide
within five days a concise statement OF
his side of the case. Therefore il now
looks as though Killing will not be rein
stated.
