Fisher Signs Eubanks

Anniston, June 1.-(Special.) )-Manager Tom Fisher has signed Carl Eubanks, who played last year with the Macon team of the South Atlantic league, and he will be used as utility man, being worked behind the bat, at first base and in the field. He played a few games with the Anniston semi-professional team last year, and made a good impression here. His importation means that some of the other members of the team will have to be released. Gilboe at first base or one of the pitchers will likely be the victim. Fisher will adopt other means of strengthening the team before he takes to the road again, although he made an excellent record of six out of nine games on the road during the last trip.

"Ducky', Holmes, Mobile manager brings A grave indictment against the civil authorities of Mobile
 He announced in Memphis recently that the gamblers had the king of sports hang ing to the ropes in the city on the guf.
 And he went further. He declared that the conditions were equally as bad Tn Birmingham. And he went further. He declared that the same will continue un- til the civil authorities of this place CO., operate with the baseball authorities and adopt some strenuous policy to save the sport
 'sDucEy." as far as his references to Birmingham are concerned, is in error The gamblers here have not been sue cessful in their efforts to besmirch the game in Birmingham to the extent that the game has become crooked. But the condition is bad here, and has always been. It will continue to be unless some thing is accomplished So far there has been much talk and little action.
 The gamblers are thriving. And 1t Is possible that in the end, unless they are checked as they SuOulu Dcf NAiS3 NiiA ceed in thir efforts to pollute.
 It will be the repetition of the old' old story. Nothing has remained clean In which gamblers have been permitted 10 intrude without hindrance.
 And we doubt the accuracy of the state ment of Holmes concerning conditions in Mobile. The manager paints a deary scene, indeed. He states that the ham, mering from the stands has been so fierce that several of his players have declared their determination never again to appear in Mobile. Were conditions so bad, we believe that the baseball authorities would have taken action ere this.
 Holmes has ever looked on conditions in the south with an unfriendly eye, and it may have been his digestion which cause the wagging of his tongue.
 Some of these days affairs will be nov ing smoothly in the camp of the Barons- but we can't tell just how soon.
 There has never been a doubt, it might be added, but that some of these days things would be all right But some of these days" haven't come yet. Today in Nashville, unless something in the programme goes amiss, Pitcher Tan | nehill will rejoin the Barons, and Pitcher Kent will report. And some action will | be taken towards decreasing the number l of Baron performers. A trade may oc- | cur, and then again waivers may be | asked on a man, and that man, imme diately thereafter placed on the ineligible | list.

Memphis. June 1.-(Special. With general display of large distance driv- ing coupled with singles scattered through the eight and a half innings, the Memphians succeeded in winning their first game on home soil against the Barons at Red Elm this afternoon It was a nip and tuck affair with the Turtles doing the tuclSing in the fatal seventh round. Score, ' to 5.
 Although Swain hooked the first ball offered in the first inning, sending 1t over the rightfield fence for a homer the gams was in doubt to the last Wagner Was bumped in every inning except the fourth and sixth but the Barons buche6 their drives with passes and errors and it loxed like toss up until Jackson tripled in the seventh after one man had been retired. East singled and Courtney cracked into the bull" sign for two bases. Goodwin's single, which followed, netted in all three runs and gave the locals the 7-5 lead which was never overcome.
 Aside from being the first victory of the Turtles over the Barons here this year, the contest was conspicuous for enriching two Memphians at the ex- pense of the tobacco trust. Courtney will receive $50 as result of his two- bagger which hit the bovine In right field. while Swalm was rewarded for his home run with enough tobacco to supply his teammates for the remainder of the season.
 Finlayson was pitted against Wagner and was invincible until McBride walked in the fourth. There were two out, but Baron bats commenced to work and singles of the simon-pure vintage Yantz, netting three tallies, which tied the Memphians.
 The topsy-turvy tactics commenced thereafter, with the Turtles taking the lead in the fifth as result of Swalm's s three e-bagger and Baerwald's sacrifice fly to Molesworth.
 Birmingham tied in their sixth trial when McGilvray walked and scored on Yantz's double to right. They took a brief lead in the seventh when Moles- worth made the rounds on an error, fol- lowed by a steal and Finlayson's wild peg in handling Phelan's grounder, but the end was sighted in the locals half of the seventh as already told.
 Rowdy Elliott is among the few found hereabouts expressing regret at the findings of the United States supreme court in connection with the antitrust violations. Rowdy hit the Memphis Dull" some time ago. but hasn't re- ceived his $50 check. He thinks Uncle Sam's judges may have stampeded the Tobacco company by their decision.

 It is believed that Thompson, one of the Boosters crack pitchers. will play no more ball, at least not this season, It is said that he has accepted posi- tion with an uncle in New York. Any way he has gone to New York and will very likely not come back here. Presi- dent Cortner of the Boosters, refused to release Thompson outright and in the event he plays ball. either this season or next, he will wear a Decatur uniform.

POINTERS TO RANDOM

1 The man on whom waivers will be asked is either Pitcher Fleharty or Pitch CT Wagner. The former has shown very 1 little this season, in spite of the fine promise he held out in the spring. Wag- ner's trouble is a physical trouble, the 1 existence of which is no fault of his, and because of which the fans are ex- 1 tending to the popular fellow their deep- est sympathy.
 But for the fall which Wagner sustained in the second game of the season, there is no doubt but that he would have made Birmingham an acceptable pitcher. But, at the present time, it is apparent that he has been unable to 'come back to his old standard, that which Is demanded by the Southern league.
 The Barons. in case Kent reports to- day, and he probably will, have four good pitchers-Maxwell, Trough, Tannehill and Kent, for it seems that there is little doubt of the latter making good.
 And 1t is timely to remark that if the Barons intend to finish high this season another good man will have to be ob- tained.
 We are glad to note that Judge Kav- anaugh declined to take the advice of President Andrews of Chattanooga rela- tive to removing Umpire Cauliflower yes terday.
 President Andrews notified Judge Kav- anaugh that if Caulifower appeared there might be serious trouble. Kayanaugh notified Caulifower to carry out his en- gagement And he did. And there was no trouble.
 As has been made plain, there was ab- solutely no reason for the outbreak against Cauliflower day before yesterday. The score of the game shows that the Pelicans got twice as many hits as the Iookouts. And the score shows that whereas the Pelicans played errorlessly four miscues were chalked up against the Lookouts.
 It would appear, therefore, that In these details of the game, In which no um- pire could have had a hand, the Peli- cans clearly outplayed the Lookouts, and were entitled to the victory.
 It Is well that Judge Kavanaugh de- clined to remove the umpire against whom the Chattanooga fans so strenuously pro- tested. Had he done so. he would have established a precedent which might have proved exceedingly troublesome through out the years to come.
 The Barons made enough runs to win yesterday afternoon. and had Trough been substituted for Wagner they would probably have won.
 And in this connection it Is reasonable to believe that a victory Is victory, whether won today or tomorrow, and It is not often wise to sacrifice prob ability this afternoon In the hope Of landing a possibility tomorrow.
 But we copped the Memphis series just the same, are still at the 800 mark and will win the Nashville series provided the pitchers earn their wages.
