HI
Pres. Copp Says Olympia League Will Stay Under Commission
Joe Etgfe
Still
Amateur Commission Refers Matter to Arbitra
Hon Board Olympia League Will Stick in
' Organization Registration List.
Brc. W. SWAN.
The much talked of and now famous
Joe Engle case Is still undecided.
At the meeting of the amateur com
trilsslon last night In Spalding's store
In Fourteenth 3tret, the case -was
brought up, and. after hearing the evi
dence on all sides. President Toung re
ferred the matter to the board of ar
bitration. Engle's signed contract with the R.
P. .Andrews team of the Commercial
Ldngue was produced by President
Graf of that circuit, while President
Roakes, of the Independence League,
stated that the Manhattan club had a
contract with Engle. It Is understood
that Manager Cornell, of the Tigers,
also holds a contract with the player.
Engle has played with all three teams,
and now the matter rests with the ar
bitration board.
Secretary Shurtleff stated that Man
ager Stems said the Interstate Com
merce Commission team held one also.
When the question of allowing the lists
of eligible players that were receUed by
the secretary after midnight July 15 was
brought up, four leagues -nere found to
be In the same boat, and after consider
able discussion the lists were not ac
cepted, and the old ones will have to
stad.
Greatly aroused by this action, Prel
dent Copp, of the Olympia League, one
of the circuits whose lists were late In
arrUing, stated that the Oljmpla League
might withdraw from the commission,
but later thought better or his action, and
telephoned In to President Toung that the
league would stay in organized ball: The
other lists that were late are the Inde
pendence, Marquette, and Suburban. None
of these was accepted by the commis
sion. A long letter from Manager Love, of
the Ninth team, was received by the
secretary and read. In this communica
tion Manager Love states his reason for
w ithdraw lng, and also states that this
letter was not sent to the commission In
hopes that the team would be reinstated,
but only that the public would be set
right In regard to the matter. This letter
was referred to the arbitration board,
which will meet some morning this week.
A communication from Manager Gassa
way, of the D. N. Walford team, protest
ing the game that the Sportsmen lost to
Andrews last week, was received, and
after considering all the points- of the
case President Toung ordered It sent
back to the Commercial League for set
tlement :
One thing which shows that the post-'
season games and Intercity contests will 1
be conducted better this year thai last
came to light when President Toung
made his report for the committee ap
pointed to look Into these matters. In
his report the president stated that as
Mr. Fowler, business manager of the
American League club, was not In town,
he could not obtain permission to use
the park for the games, and until Mr.
Fowler's consent was obtained the dates
and other matters relating to the games
could not be made.
Another Important matter that was
brought up at the meeting was an amend
ment to the constitution, made by Presi
dent Beach, of the District League, so
that a player could only be registered
and play on one team. The motion was
made for next season. This ls one of
the best motions made at a commission
meeting this year, and President Beach
deserves a ote of thanks from the ama
teur public and from the players, as
well.
Manager Love's letter follows. In part:
"To the Amateur Commission.
"The baseball team of the Ninth Street
Christian Church, of the Sunday School
League, desires to file this protest with
jou In order that the action of the team
may be placed before you and the gen
eral public In Its true light and that
Justice, so far as possible, may also be
done.
"The league has upon several occasions.
In order to defeat the pennant aspira
tions of this team, let down the bars
and made players eligible on the Ninth
team's rival contenders for the pennant
on the pretense of helping the weaker
teams. In fact, at one meeting some of
the players of the Ninth team were taken
away "and placed on other teams, "In
order to even up the race."
"Time after time the outspoken prejudice
of Umpire Hughes has been called to the
attention of the league, until finally the
patrons of the team announced that they
would not attend any more games under
the existing conditions.
"Upon one occasion the Ninth team
was forced to start a game with Ham
line at 6:25 p. m. without any practice,
the umpire in an arbitrary and insolent
manner allowing them one minute to
start the "game, the protest of their man
ager, Mr. Love, being met with a threat
to put him off the grounds.
"On another occasion, Mr. C B.
Broome, of the Ninth teamrwas publicly
called a 'crook' by the umpire during a
game and ordered off ' the field, his of
fense being his refusal to throw out a
ball belonging to himself for use In the
game. His case was also called to the
attention of the league, but. as usual.
was Ignored. f
"Umpire Hughes, after stating1 that
, the Ninth team "never would get any
thing from him,' was allowed to liandle
the Nlnth-Hamline game of the lbth In
stant In this game Richmond had heldl
Hamline to one hit and no runs ,for .3vo

IUHA PABK.
There Is always something new1 and
amusing to see on the brilliantly lighted
grounds of Luna Park. Prof. Alfreno,
the daring walker on the high wire, has
Increased the height of his perilous stroll
along the wire from 100 to 125 feet In the
air, and changed his course, so that the
walk takes him directly across Luna
Park's lake at the foot of the shoot-the-chutes.
When above the center of the
lake all the lights of the park are turn
ed off, the big searchlight Is moved from
him and he reaches down and applies
a match to the fuse of a long string of
fireworks attached to the high wire. The
effect 13 startling and beautiful? and In
what seems a veritable aerial sea of
flame, he continues his dizzy walk amid
the delighted shouts of the crowds. The
clever vaudeville show of the five Alfre-
children, the "Great " Divide' ride,
Journey through the "Panama Canal,"
shoot-tbe-chutes, cave of the winds, the
dancing pavilion, with the excellent mu
sloiof Tansll's Band, are a few of the
many popular amusements at Luna Park
this season.

To-day the Plaza Theater, la Ninth

Lincoln, July 2. A clash between the
Taft and La Follette forces Is foreshad
owed at the Republican State conven
tion, which meets here to-morrow, over
the question of Indorsements. The Taft
men insist upon an Indorsement being
glen the President.
The La Follette supporters declare
that if this Is attempted they will In
troduce resolutions asking that the con
vention declare In favor of the Wiscon
sin Senator. If no Indorsement Is asked
for Taft they will ask for none for La
Follfetta. This was the course decided
upon atra caucus this evening.
Less than twenty-five of the ninety
two county conventions passed resolu
tions of indorsement. The major part
of these were for Taft.
Gov. Aldrlch and other party leaders
are striving to secure a compromise in
which the national administration will
be commended and no special emphasis
laid, upon the President's part therein. ,
The Prohibitionists and the Populists
also hold their State conventions here at
the same time. The Populists have
practically broken with ehe Democracy.
