A DETECTIVE
Davenport Times: Ned Egan, boss
of the Muskies, was in Davenport yes
terday morning looking up the dope
on Con Cooper the former Blue Sox
pitcher, now with Keokuk. The Cen
trail association is having CONSIDER
able difficulty with its rule which for
bids a club to hold more than four
players that played over thirty days
in higher class league. Some Of
the bosses are after Egan, and he be-
lieves he has come back against
Keokuk and will make an effort to
prove that Cooper has drawn more
than thirty days salary with the Dav-
export baseball club.
Comet Bush, former National
league and Three-I umpire. attended
the twin bill at the Blue Sox park
Wednesday, looking none the worse
for his, terrifying experiences as m
arbiter In the Central association dur

then took exception to ono OF Bush
decisions and when the fans threat

bered the old adage about discretion
being the better part Of valor and
ducked. This occurred in the fifth
inning and was Bush's last appear
ance in the Justice circuit.

UP IN THE
CLOUDS AGAIN

Ho Hum! Up In second place
again sPenner turned the trick yes
terday while the tribe was batting
Rojas and Wagner all over the lot.
The Indians play the Bunnies this att
ernoon. After three games In Cedar
Rapids comes three more In Water
loo. Looks pretty soft for Keokuk.
And then II Egan had those six games
thrown out where would he be? Ned
has broken the Muscatine baseball as
ISOLATION this year and has not
achieved results. His pay roll has
been half again as large as the limit
and still he has been unable to keep
his head above the water. Now that
Flanagan has been fired for his little
Joker In Wednesdays game, Musca-
tine will be weakened all the more.
FLANAGAN
TRIED AND FIRED
The Muskies may be without the
services of Mike" Flanagan, speed
merchant, during the remainder Of
the season as the result of a special
meeting Of the board Of directors of
the Muscatine association held We'd
nesday. After learning that the
giant hurler had given the Indians
three runs in Wednesdays game by
throwing the ball over the right field
fence, a meeting was called and 1t
was decided to fine the player $25
and suspend him indefinitely.
Flanagan has not yet decided AZ to
plans for the balance Of the baseball
year, but 1t is probable that he will
return to his home In Georgetown.
Texas. However. he may get on with
one of the semi-pro clubs in Iowa.
With Flanagan's departure comes
the announcement that H. Stanley
will again be placed In the lineup
and Ray Augustus viii be used as q
finger.
