felt to Cardinals.
PROTEST ENTERED BY PAYNE
Questioning the Playing of Clark. of
Eagles, and Welsh by Coun-
ty Club.
PROTEST ENTERED BY PAYNE

Everything in the northern Virginia
championship series went wrong yester-
day. The Alexandria Eagles and the
Alexandria County Athletic Association
team failed to play at the North Alfred
street grounds, while the White Sox Club
forfeited to the Cardinal Athletic Club
in its scheduled game at Union Station
Field.
Because of the heavy rain of the morn
ing and the poor condition of the grounds
at l o'clock, Manager Corbert called up
Manager Jones, of the Clarendon team,
and called the game off. At 1:3O, when
1t cleared off nicely. Manager Jones took
his club to the Virginia city. thinking
that game might be played, but on
reaching the field he found but seven
of the Eagles in uniform ready to play.
Manager Jones, of the Clarendon team
claims the game by forfeit and this pro-
test, along with three others. will be
settled at a meeting at this office tonight
Manager Payne, of the White Sox, has
protested three of the games his team
has played. and claims that the treat
ment which he has received at the hands
of the umpires and the managers OF the
clubs in the series is the cause of his
players not showing up in yesterdays
game with the Cardinals
Payne has questioned the right of the
Clarendon team for playing Welsh, an
Ineligible player. and also the playing of
Clark by the Eagle Club, who Is not on
their eligibility list. Tho other protest
is also from Payne's pen in reference to
Umpire Fanshaw overstepping his au-
thority in the Cardinal game of two weeks
ago.
When the White Sox failed to muster a
club yesterday an exhibition game was
played in which the Cardinals won by a
II to 4 score Scnrn.
