BASEBALL
PLAYERS DON'T
LIKE TO PAYDUES

The recently Incorporated Baseball
Players Fraternity is now the big
talk of the fans outside of the com
ing worlds series Same say that
the formation of the body will event
ually lead TO a war. while others de-
clare that It will die a natural death.
The obstacle in the way Of the sue
cess Of the organization is the as
sessment of the players. II is said
that the 2S6 players already enrolled
have been asked TO pay dues of SIS
apiece annuity, which would mean a
total Of $5,14S.
If there is anything the modern
player hates to do It Is to part with
money. The player of today is a great
contrast to the old timer who liked
nothing better than TO throw his
money away Nowadays they use all
their coin buying farms, orchards. ga
RACES. etc. and they don't part with a
cent that won't bring them back its
equivalent at least
It is believed that this assessment
thing will cause the death of the new
union. II this doesn't cause its de-
mise Il is said that a war with the
magnates will mean the knockout
punch II is understood that the first
thing the players will ask for Is a
representation on the National Com
mission, which request will most like
ly be refused, with the result that a
war will be started, with the usual
result-the triumph of capital over
labor.
