Atlanta. August 26.-(Special) )-Birmlng- ham evened up the score with Atlanta this afternoon, winning the fourth and last game by the score of to 0. FoXen' the Atlanta discard" being in great shape, while Paige was fairly easy. The local fielding was off color.
 Umpire Hart was on the job, taking the place of Pfenninger.
 Birmingham started in to make lhe game sure thing in the first inning by scoring one run and really clinched the contest in the fifth. when four runners came over the plate.
 The game was started early in order to allow the Barons to make their getaway from Atlanta.
 In the first inning Marcan opened with a single to center field. and Molesworth was a martyr from pitcher to first base. Phelan went out to the infield. but Marcan took third. Mcbride singled him over the bag In the fourth inning Mcbride cracked one to the box and went out at first. The rest of the inning went about the same way.
 The fifth was better for Birmingham. Ellam opened with a wallop to right for one base. Foxen dribbled to Paige who made an effort to get the man at second, but Howard let the ball get past. All hands safe Marcan famed and Moles- worth flied out to Burch. Looked pretty nice for the Crackers.
 Paige feeling better. Too soon though Phelan walked. Bases got a jag on. Me Bride found a spot in left where the "felders ain't."
 Burch lost the ball and while he was feeling about in the grass for the elusive pill over the pan came whole troop of Barons. Atlanta fans were dizzy count ing them.
 The Barons stopped counting in the sev- enth They were tired, sorry for Atlanta and wanted to go to that dear old hotel and prepare to hike out for the next town With two out Molesworth got onto a slow one for one bag. Phelan tripled. Molesy puffed home.
 That's the good night sign. Atlanta switched her battered lineup once more,

PRAISE FOR RICK

Fuzzy Woodruff in the Atlanta Con stitution writes as follows concerning Rick Woodward:
 Rick Woodward. owner of the Baron club, has been in Atlanta with his forlorn hopes from Birmingham. Woodward is a plutocrat with doubleAP, but that doesn't keep him from being a dyed in the wool baseball bug. He is some sport, too is Rick. He has been called the Sir Thomas Lipton of the Southern league, but If the Hiberian tea merchant has any thing on the Alabama steel magnate, the people of this section will have to be shown.
 woodward paid big price for the Bir- mingham club a pair of years ago. At that time the Barons were in the slough of despond. They had finished way back in the second division for two years and there were no very bright prospects of their doing better for some time to come But Woodward is a spender. When he bought the club he also bought a regular ball team. That team had its home in a ramshackle old affair of the 1492 model and this did not appeal to man of Kicks aesthetic tastes. He promptly pur- chased a ball lot of big league qualities and housed his club there.
 "In order to encourage the club. he also bought himself a baseball uniform and did duty on the coaching line and in shag- ging fly balls in practice. But a sportsman cannot stand too much punishment Old Bat Nelson had to give way finally after being a punching bag for years and years And now Woodward has taken the count
 He announced in Atlanta that this sea- son of disaster to his club had taught him that the iron and steel industry Is a pretty good game and that baseball is only good from the grandstand. He will still retain his ownership of the Birmingham club, but he will take a passive interest in the pastime instead of an active one.
 CT started out this season with pen nant winning ball club. said Rick last night And before it got started the for tunes of the game put it out of the run ming. Wagner dislocated his shoulder and then, when he recovered, broke a finger and could not do himself justice in the box Feharty. my most dependable pitcher, broke his hand early in the sea- son. Roy Ellam, going at top speed, broke his collar bone Rowdy Elliott was spiked. Mowrey broke his leg. Phelan had his nose smashed and now, right at the crucial time, Johnston has been put out by a bean ball. I had hopes of win ming the pennant. Now I will be lucky to finish third This is certainly a hard luck story, but it Is fortunate that all this misfortune fell on a man who can stand
 it as easily as Woodward. It would drive some others to near beer"

BAkONS BUY PLAYER-SEND JOHNSTON TO SOX-WOOD- WARD SAYS TEAM DISHEART- ENED-FANS ROAST TOKEN

Over the wires at Commodore Orcutt's matinee yesterday afternoon came the news that Catcher McMurray of the At- Ilanta club had been indefinitely susnen1ea and that Shortstop Buemiller was sick of fever. Neither man, according to this re- port will accompany the Crackers On their trip.
 No cause for the alleged suspension of McMurray was given, although it was intlmated that 1t was in connection with the blow from a bounding ball which, striking Umpire Rudderham in the stomach, put him out of business. Neither man played against Birmingham yester- day afternoon.
 Birmingham has purchased Outhelder Mills of the vicksburg team, the trade holding providing no major league club drafts the player. His record shows that he is hard hitter
 Outfielder Jimmie Johnston, who was in- jured while playing for Birmingham in Chattanooga the other day, has been for mally turned over to the Chicago White Sox
 Rick Woodward, owner of the Barons. returned yesterday from Atlanta, where ne saw the Cracker games He states that the team was torn all to pieces following the injury to Johnston and that there is fear among several Of impending danger. He thinks however, that they have pulled themselves together- again and will get back to their old fight ing style.
 MT. Woodward stated that the bleacner gods of Atlanta attempted to make life miserable for Bill Foxen, referring to him as the Hay down. artist, and whistlng to him as if he belonged to a canine tribe. Yesterday afternoon, however, Bill had an opportunity and he got revenge. What did the bleacherites think when the At- lanta discard stood the Crackers on their heads and made them run and jump as he whistled to them?

EVERY VOTE CAST FAVORED
 THAT GULL-PEL TRANSFER

1 Concerning the subject of the transfer of the New Orleans-Mobile series, scheduled for the latter place, to the former place, Percy H. Whiting of the Atlanta Georgian WI ites in accordance with our sentiments. as follows:
 I've thought that the question of trans ferring games was settled for good in this league some years ago. And now bobs up transfer from Mobile to New Orleans.
 Every transfer is unjust and indefen- sible.
 Tt is sacrificing sportsmanship on tho altar of gate receipts.
 This special sort of highbinding must stop. If 1t doesn't baseball will die as horse racing died.''
 And yet-though everything Whiting says is true-the great majority of the presidents of Southern league clubs voted | in favor of the transfer. This would lead 1 to the belief that whereas the scribes stand firm for the protection of the sports manship of baseball, the magnates, them selves, are inclined to listen to the f1nan- cial argument. The transfer of baseball games from one city to another is in- defensible. There is no reason great enough to warrant a vote in its favor. | When President Kavanaugh issued the Iervey of Mobile, acting on the sugGes- tion of Manager Frank of New Orleans. had requested the six other clubs in the league to permit the transfer of Mobile games to New Orleans, we ventured the prediction that the permission would not | be given We knew that President Baugh of Birmingham would not vote favorably. thought we knew that President Heis-
 man of Atlanta would oppose the financial scheme We believe that we made the
 remark that President Andrews of Chat
 tanooga would withhold his aye, ave-
 from move that in no wise is consistent
 with sportsmanship, and which if per mitted, would be setting a precedent al
 dangerous.
 1 Our belief in the sportsmanship of the majority of Southern league presidents
 was ill-founded, it seems. Yesterday aft
 ernoon we requested our correspondents
 to find out how the presidents of the
 various clubs voted on the proposition. | From Memphis came the report that
 President Coleman had voted favorably
 after he was informed that practically
 every other club had done so." He has
 an excuse And we are led to wonder fl
 President Coleman, following the action oi ractically all other presidents, would
 throw himself headlong into a boiling lcauldron.
 President c. B. Jones of Montgomery
 voted favorably. Our correspondent coult
 not find him in Montgomery but he wal subsequently, located in Atlanta He wire' lThe Age-Herald as follows: II certaini,
 did vote favorably to transfer Mobil games to New Orleans for several goot reasons' We would like to know tn several good reasons. In our opinion while there were reasons there were n good ones. How could there have peel when the move was prompted on the on hand by the selfishness of Manager Franl lof New Orleans. and on the other becaus President Hervey admits that he coul make more money in New Orleans tha lin Mobile?
