Ball Strikers Fined
500 Each; Cobb Case
Is Left With Johnson

PHILADELPHIA, May 21-A fine of
800 each has been assessed against
each member of the Detroit American
league team who participated in the
strike because of the suspension of Ty
Cobb
This is the agreement reached by
which the tangle was cleared up. The
fine was imposed by President John
son, of the American league This fine
is at the rate of $50 a day for the time
that the men refused to play and is
the regulation penalty for the offense.
The magnates also decided to take
the question Of handling rowdy spec
tators in the grandstands out Of the
hands of the umpires and put it in the
hands of the local club management.
The local managements are to call on
the local police power to put an end to
attacks on ball players by rowdy spec
tators.
The case of Ty Cobb was left entirely
in the hands of President Ban John
son, who said he would go to New York
late today to take evidence of those
who saw the assault at the American
league park.
