From present indications there VIII pc no vigorous assault made on either tne player limit or the salary limit or the Southern league at the meeting or the directors which will be held in Birmins- ham December 15.
 Birmingham, Atlanta and Memphis will express willingness that the salary limit be increased, and it is probable that New Orleans will not fight that proposition. But inasmuch as four clubs will probably oppose an increase. 1t stands to reason that the first four will not insist.
 President 0. B. Andrews of Chatta- ncoga desires a graded salary limit, that is s35e0 for 16 men, and s2o0 less for every man carried less than Is. He is also ,n favor of forcing the home clubs to pro- vide adequate club houses for the visit ing clubs.

 NOT MAKE FIGHT

It is reasonably certain that Birmins- ham will not make fight for any change in the constitution.
 "I believe that 1t would be we'll said Rick Woodward, owner of the Baron club, yesterday, were there no limit The argument is that limits protect she clubs of weaker financial backing. l do not agree. For, sometimes, as is known, star breaks leg, and on account ot the pressing need of the moment, 1t IS necessary to pay whatever the big leagues demand for player to take the place of the wounded athlete; whereas. had there been a valuable substitute on the club. he could have filled the vacant spot uniil such time would have elapsed as Would have given the manager an opportunity of selecting a man who he knew would make good. The payment of big sums of money for men of unknown ability Who are needed right now is so expensive that l believe it is false economy to limit the number of players.
 However, if others are satisfied we will not make vigorous fight for any changes"

Chicago. September 2S.-Horace Fogei. president of the Philadelphia National league baseball team. in a signed state ment Issued here today charged that the New York National league team was able 10 win the pennant this season be- cause the New York team had been un- duly favored by Empires. Fogel does not charge the managers of the New York team with corrupting umpires, but he alleges il is his belief that certain umpires favored the New York club in the hope that If New York won the championship they would be given the profitable work of umpirlng the worlds championship series. Fogel. in his statement, predicted the downfall of Thomas Lynch as president of the Ma tional league and spoke of Lynch as "a figurehead president"

Annapolis, September 2S.-In the be- lief that beef will count heavily in foot ball under this years rules the Navy coaches are doing their utmost to de- veiop the heavy men of the squad. Any promising candidate who tips the beam at lSo pounds or over is assured of get ting attention. The effect of this policy is shown in the Navy line where Mc- Reavy and Hall. both big men, have been shunted from the line to the back field in an effort to get strong line smashing backs to take the place of Dalton, who graduated last season.

Atlanta moguls will attend the worlds series games at Boston and New York.
 Joe Agler will be returned to the Crackers next spring. This announce ment has been made from Washington and 1t would not be surprising when Griffith and Billy Smith hold their conference in Washington if the trade is not made.
 Agler was sold to Washington this fall, but when the sale was made the wise ones seemed to think that the trade smacked of a cover up and 1t now looks as if they were right. With Chick Gandil going as good as he Is, Agler did not have a chance to break in and then Griffith has Schaefer to play the bag in case Gandil is hurt so he Is well fortified.
