The dominant feature of the meeting
was the consideration Of the base ball
situation. Lengthy discussion was in
dulged in and 10 definite conclusions
arrived at, the matter being finally laid
oyer until next week. Last season
base ball was not a pay ing proposition,
according to statements made on the
floor OF the municipal chamber. 1t
was made known that four young men
are short to the tune of 81 $50 in the
management of the ball ground on the
beach last season-Robert q. Latimer,
Gus He'll, Forrest Rich and Harry Ten
enbaum. 1t is claimed that they are
conformity out of $500 in actual cash,
and are endorsers on three notes, ag-
gregating $3.50 more. One Of these
notes is held by the Trust company,
another by the Marine Bank and the
third by the Union. 1t was said that
the quartette is not worried much about
the $500, which is gone and to which
they have said "good by" but it is the
notes that hurts their credit, as Mr..
He'll was understood to remark, and
they are seeking relief. 1t was pretty
clearly demonstrated to them on Tues
day that the city cannot come to their
rescue directly. The only remedy pos
sible now is to consider a proposal
made by Commissioner Smith to APP
propriate 81, 500 or 81, 800 to aid in pro-
noting the game this year. Then il
the season should be successful there
may be an opportunity to recoup at
least some of their losses onlast seasons
venture. The Board of Trade commit
tee on one-day outings or excursions is
anxious to have the game a.going,
claiming that this is one Of the strong
est talking points they have in holding
out inducements to bring crowds to
Wild wood. Athletic sports appeal to
nearly everyone, and base ball is classed
as the great American sport. The con.
is almost irresistible that we
must restore our base ball diamond and
a team for the onrushing season.
proper management, it is
claimed, the game can be made self
sustaining. 1t is up to the people now
to devise the ways and means. Some
action will likely be taken at next reg
ular meeting of the Commissioners
putting the grounds and grand
stand in shape. City Solicitor Hand
announced that the Supreme Court
had decided against MI. Blaker in his
