While .1 quorum of the Amateur Baseball Commission was not obtained for the special meeting called for last night for the purpose of making ar? rangements for the trip to Washing? ton Friday, when the Battle Axe club, champions of Richmond, will meet the Pepcos, champions of the District of Columbus. It >cns consensus of opinion among those close to amateur base? ball affairs that tho local commission would rule that both Hay and Blount were eligible to take part In tho series under the rules adopted for the guid? ance of amateur baseball affairs. It is expected that should such ac? tion be taken by the local commission, ers that the Washington commission will at once see the Justice of the ac? tion, Inasmuch as several of the Wash? ington amateurs have been tried out by professional clubs, the same offense laid at the door of Hay and Blount. Indeed, It Ib no secret that Munch and Barton, the star battery of Pepco, have both worked out under the eyo of Clark Orifllth manager of the Nation? als, and both will go South with the team next spring, On the other hand, neither Hay nor Blount are Assured of Jobs with either Norfolk or Richmond. Hay was given a vial by Orlflln. not with any ldon of signing htm until after the amateur series had been played, The same is truu of Frank Blount. who was glvon an opportunity to B] w his ba? hall wares by Charlie Shaffer, of Norfolk. It must be re? membered that nelth'ir at these boys have signed a contract, nor are they the property of any professional club. In fairness, they occupy the same po? sition occupied by Munch and Barton? receptive or rather possible profes? sional njayers. President Baton, of the Capital Citv League, has written an exhaustive let? ter to President Young, of the Wash? ington Commission, stating exactly his position end the position of the ama? teurs in regard to the disputed players He shows that both participated in every championship game during- the season and in the post-season Berlcs for the city championship. Thev are not Professionals, have never played; professional ball, r.iul are no! certain that they will. Neither *-Hay nor Blount have given up positions held here. It Is believed that when the i . facts, as they are. are placed before' I 'he Washington authorities thev will , agree with Richmond, ? ,.?Th," Battle.'Axe team, accompanied ! bv Manager Parker and several mem? bers of the commission, will leave Frl day night for Washington.
