NO MEETING HELD
Prexy Tearney Calls Rumors of
Secret Session in Chicago
Mere Jabber.
SCOUTS CIRCUIT CHANGES
Says the League as Now Constituted
Is Enjoying Season of Great
est Prosperity.

After days of doubt in regard to a
rumor of secret meeting of the Three
Eye in Chicago last Monday a quietus
has finally been put on the jabber
about the meeting by President A. r.
Tearney. He has stated that rumors
of a secret meeting of officials of the
Three-Eye league in Chicago Monday
afternoon or evening to rearrapge a
schedule are absolutely without foun-
dation. He wound up the statement by
saying that there win be no changes
in the Three-Eye league this year
Therefore, all of the teams in the cir
cult now will finish the season wheth-
er a certain buffer quits or not
PROCLAIMS PROSPERITY.
I'VE are enjoying a most prosperous
season." says Prexy Tearney, lin fact
the most prosperous we have ever had,
and talk about taking in any other cit
les and dropping any that are now in
the circuit is pure rot"
There is scarcely any danger that
Decatur will lose its team this year,
even though Kinsella makes good his
promise to quit baseball within a few
days. Should he do so, his team will
be taken over at once by the league or
a Decatur club. Clarence Rowland has
made statement that if Dick Kinsella
throws his team on the league, .Du-
buque will pay $500 toward the fran
chise. However, should Dick attempt
to take his team to any other city, Du-
buque. as is the case with the other
northern towns, will fight the move.
ANY effort to include Des Moines in
the circuit this year will probably meet
with failure, as a circuit could not be

NOTES OF THE GAME

Rock Island is in Waterloo for four
games.
Who needed the game more than
Davenport? That was the question.
Goodwin celebrated his return to the
game with three hits in FIVE chances
Any team that can stand to 80 =
innings without scoring a run is de
serving of one victory in four.
Bethuld failed on several occasions
TO loft the ball into the diamond, as
his heaving arm was out of plumb.
There were eight two-base hits in
the game and three of them were
the bingles were for one sack only.
Sullivan, released by Danville and
Peoria because of his inability TO hit.
had three wallops in five chances. He
evidently intends to make the third
time a charm.
Somebody has been yelling links"
over in Davenport for days. Wonder
what they are saying since those 10
runs were made? Ugh. Sore more
links" coming apparently
Cook batted for Gonding in the
6HO mdue d HlJ-. .idCOUSSn bot-
ted for Hughes and forced Cook at
second. He himself went TO second,
when Chapman threw wild TO first
OLeary was ready to commit muir
der during the game. He had popped
up on one occasion. and the cognO-
men, "Popup Dan" which riled him
when he was an Islander, riled him
yesterday. He resented the name and
had quite a chewing match with the
Islander fans
The Prods pulled off "a double steal
in the first inning. Bromwich was
on third and Ohland on first. The lat
ter started for second and Gonding
pegged to Vogel Bromwich came
home. The ball was pegged back to
Gonding at once, and it was a mighty
close decision at the plate, which al
lowed the runner a life.
II was only one loss in four, and
the game was virtually handed to the
Prods. But Manager Gonding put
Hughes in to give Lakaff, next pitcher
up. a chance for rest. Frank pitched
ball Sunday and on Tues
day he saved the game by pitching the
last four innings. Today he is slated
to pitch at Waterloo, and he will
probably be in good condition.

sacks, scoring Bethuld. He tried TO
reach third while the pretzels were
trying to catch Bethuld at the plate,
but failed. Slattery hit to right and
Vogel popped out to second The
last run came in the eighth. Wooley
was out at first and Slattery hit to
right for two bases. Vogel was out
Kelly hit a grounder TO Chapman
