By O'Loughlln. The stage is set for the final act of the base ball comedy of the American association, "Will We Drive Tacks in Kelley's Face?" It will be presented at Milwaukee on Aug. 22, and L. A. Lydiard, secretary of the Minneapolis club, and M. J. Kelley, president and manager, are probably booked for slaughter. Local opinion is to the effect that Lydiard and Kelley will be "expelled' from the league for an alleged connection with the Owens trouble. So firm is that belief entrenched that it Is a common expression that the holding of the meet ing at Milwaukee is superfluous. The directors of the American association, headed by Havenor, Lennon and Tebeau, have been after Kelley all season, and Joe D. O'Brien has been performing valiant labor in the role of investigator. Local followers of baseball have made pro fessional baseball in Minneapolis popular and possible from a financial standpoint from a feeling that it was a home team and home men in control. Tebeauism, Havenor control and Lennon opposition to Kelley have rallied a strong support around the Minneapolis manager. That he has made mistakes his friends admit. He is only human, and within the past year has been goaded to a point where human endur ance gives way. The idea la held locally that Kelley Is being made the butt of the association for his every act, not because of any of his actions, but be cause he, in his fight for his rights, took base ball "law" into court and showed that it was worthless. He "showed up" some of the base ball leaders In a bad light. He has never been Minneapolis, one of the best cities in the American association, has suffered much in base* ball and paid good cash for the infliction For years the city struggled along with a series of teams which would put Tebeau's Kansas Citr mutts to shame. Then along came W. H. Watklns and gave the city a high-priced team. He was unfortunate last year in that In the middle of the playing season some of the men laid down like dogs before a fireplace at a time when the team should have put forth every effort to cinch the pennant, and permitted it to go to Columbus, an Inferior baseball organisa tion This year Kelley took hold of the team and after a series of early season troubles got them to going In splendid shape. Then came the sending of Owens to Minneapolis. Thru raw ness in his field work In the opening game with Columbus be precipitated a double disturbance with himself as the object and the consequent trouble. Minneapolis fans are tired of the whole busi ness They are angry at seeing one of the best cities on the circuit ruined and crippled to satisfy spites and grudges. They will not stand for more of it. It Mike Kelley is "sloughed" by the board of directors without a full review of the whole affair, without an open, fair and impartial hearing, on that day professional baseball becomes a dead cock in the pit in Minneapolis. Kelley could organise an Independent team and do more business in Minneapolis than could a Tebeau-Havenor domi nated team ploying In the cirouit parks. The Milwaukee meeting of Aug. 22 is looked upon in the light of a farce. The directors of the American association are not legally bound to take or receive any evidence save such as may suit their purpose. Fair play is all that is wanted by the local followers of baseball, and the day that it becomes evident that it is not to be had professional baseball goes to the dump in the mill city. The whole scandal In the American associa tion should be placed before some tribunal where fairness and equity Is assured to the Havenor Lennon triumvirate, as well as to Kelley and the Watklns faction. It is la a sad muddle The ghosts and phantoms of the affair still walk. There are affidavits and counter-affi davits and the whole unsavory mesa should be settled once and for all. If there was a conspiracy In Minneapolis to do up Owens it should be airedbut established by something more tangible than the word of a man who skulks behind an alias to tell of his virtue. The findings of a board of directors, based upon such evidence, will not go far to soothe a populace already ready to turn atten tion to lacrosse or Independent and vacant lot balL NORTHWEST BASEBALL SAINTS LOSE.

BROOKINGS AND LDNDS BREAK EYEN The Lund Lands and Brookings, 8. D., teams lined up twice at Minnehaha park yesterday afternoon before the largest crowd that has ever attended a semi-professional game In this city. In the first game the Lunds won out by a score of 6 to 5, and the second went to the visitors by the one-sided total of 8 to 2. Moore of the St. Paul team pitched the first game for the Lunds, and was opposed by Erlckson. the giant of the Brookings team. This game was a pitchers' battle, and Moore finally land ed on top. Many star plays were pulled off by both teams, Hallstrom and Rognass taking honors for the Lund Lands and Hille doing the hero stunt for the reds Joe Bees played a strong game for the Lunds, both in right field and on third base, and was also there with his corking single when a bit meant a run. In the second game Kllroy went In to pitch tor the Lund Lands and Burwell for the reds. For the flrst eight innings Kilroy had decidedly the best of the argument, but at this time the Lunds went to pieces and four errors were made, which, added to some more weak plays, gave the visitors a good lead. In the eighth Inning the result could be fore seen, and the crowd started to leave. In this game Rognass played a star game at second and also bingled the ball for three safe ones^ one of these being a double. These teams will meet again today, and this time at Nicollet park. Parkins or Schraeder will pitch for the Lund Lands and Nelson for the visitors. The game will be called at 3'30 o'clock.
