T FORAGE FoGEL'S 3.Oo0- word state
ment to the effect that President
Lynch had not conducted an inn
partial investigation into the Finneran-
Magee matter is hurtful to baseball. If
the matter ever goes before the board
Of directors Sherwood will certainly DE
found to blame.
Magee's loss may be great at this mo-
ment to Philadelphia, but baseball gains
a great deal by the example of Magee's
punishment. To Fogel, however, base
ball is far less important than the
chances of his Philadelphia Club.

Ned Hanlon has not quit in his efforts
to purchase the Boston National
League Club. He is said to be in Bos-
ton today. comforting with President
Russell, of Boston, while the Baltimore
residents. headed by their mayor, are
working hard at home stirring up e
timent for the purchase of the club and
its transfer to Baltimore as a major
league club. Hanlon's price is $3.50, 900;
Russell's is 100000.

Sherwood Magee, the ball player who
struck Umpire Finneran in Philadel-
phia, has been suspended for the sea-
son by President Tom Lynch and Or
dered to pay the fine of 5000 previously
imposed. This is light punishment for
the o~ffense, but at that the loss of all
the pay incidental to the suspension
should be an example to other ball
players who may be too ready with
their fists.
The charge that Finneran had APP
piled a bad name to Magee was found
to be ~unfounded, as Jim tombstone de-
clared Roger Bresnahan maintained.
-OOO-
That Cyclone Johnny Thompson and
Willie Lewis bout at the National
Sporting Tub next Thursday night
should be a hummer.

All the Judges at the Velodrome have
resigned their jobs because of the criti-
cism melted out to them for their uni
formly poor work, especially that of
last Wednesday night. And the laugh
able part of 1t all was that their jobs
were honorary.
Harry Steinfeldt is now suffering
from nervous prostration. Chance and
Evers have been victims of the same
ndldQJ. NOW Il 10 OI0lHltiuls It1t iO1-
mer Cub. Have pennant-winning ac-
tivities a price? 1t seems so, for these
three men were the strongest cogs in
the once great Cub baseball machine.

Ty Cobb is not only the greatest
baseball player ever, but a b~ig-hearted
fellow. The Georgia Peach sent his
personal check for 500 to the Cleveland
baseball club for the Addie Joss fund.

It's a good thing for baseball that
some good players are dubbed mo ac-
count" by some of the scouts. Wouldn't
1t be great If a certain scout had an
eye for ALL the good ones, instead of
only CERTAIN, as is now the case?

with Fletcher IN third in place of the
veteran Devlin, Herzog at short and
Doyle and Merkle at second and first,
respectively, the Giants pennant hopes
are frightened considerably.

Just SO. One can never tell what is
in store. Just think, the Gittins bill
passed the difficult New York Senate,
only to be beaten in the easy" Assem-
bly,, and to lie there while the Legisla-
ture adjourns for the year.
It will be next year for racing.

McGraw is as lucky a manager as
Clark Grifith is unlucky. If Griff had
traded Herzog to any club and Charlie
was going like he is showing up the
Foolish Trader" he would never have
had the show TO get back the man as
McGraw did. Luck is a great deal in
baseball.

From reading the story of the Kill
bane-Kline fight as printed in Los An
geles papers the contention of those
who saw the bout should have been a
draw is not giving the Newark boy too
much.
