Joe Miller Reinstated—Postponed Games to be Played Off, Etc.

MACON, Ga., June 23.—Editor SPORTISC LIFE: President Proudfit has issued a call for a meet­ ing of the directors of the Southern League, to be held at the Brown House, in this city, Mon­ day moining, June 28. As this is tne first meeting since the season opened, it will be aa interesting and important one.

Since his suspension, Joe Miller his remained in this city, and his friends and admirers (of whom he still has many, the best of whom are large contributors to the support of the club), have addressed a petition to the Jlacon management requestiug that he be reinstated for an thcr trial. Upon his earnest declaration to play ' i faith and to please his Meeds, Joe ha back into the ranks once nior-, an i he! in good style yesterday, ni • - slides in stealing ba*M. 11 bt-8t t.Lie-ntDDer on the t^..

.uiecit.winning tw

last night.Onr next gsmea at hom« are with Memphis, who

are scheduled to play here June 27, 28, 29 and July 1. June 29 being Sunday, President Proudfit has ordered the series to begin June -8, and continue four con­ secutive days. The schedule committee have made several other mistakes in their work, giviog no op­ portunity for deferred games to fce played off, all the time allowed for the "offdays' being mostly devoted to travelling, aiacy long jumps being made. No games are scheduled between July 1 and 7th, and the Macon Club, having many deferred earfles have re­ quested President Proudflt, and he has ordered, th»t the Augusta Club play two games here July 2 aid :i and the Savannahs two games here also, July 5 and 6. Nashville making a similar request, Memphis has been ordered to play in Nashville July 2<i, and 3d thus disposing of several deferred games.

Ex-Umpire Jirnmie Green is in trouble again, and will probably spend twenty days in our city prison in lieu oi depositing that many dollars in liquidation of a fine imposed on him by the Recorder. He got "too happy," and stationing himself in front of a grocery treated the passers-by to a quantity of eggs—a la base ball—for which he was fined >s above. Sunday ball playing is pn hilited in this city,nevertheless a number of bojs crawled into the park last Sunday and were enjoying a game when a policeman also quietly slipped in and arrested the entire crowd. When arraigned in court consternation gave way to dismay when they were each fined twenty-five dollars, lut they were made happy by a severe reprimand and remittance cf fines.

While In Colnmbna last week I saw Wick Miller, the once great short stop, over whom Columbus went wild, and who heads the record for last year's playing. He is now contentedly driving a horse car, but fre­ quently indulges in a tame with the amateur clubs of which there are many in h : s town. ~——

The Club's Good Work—Clnto Statistics- General News.

UTICA, June 24.—Editor SPOP.TIXS LIFE.—By winning six straight games on their Western trip the Uticas have surprised their most ardent admirers. They have been playing very even and steady ball, and the prospects for them win­ ning ten games before returning home are good The team can be strengthened at one point— short field—and then we can meet any of them without fearing for the results. The boys snatched a victory away from the Torontos to­ day, by winning the game in the ninth inning The Cticas bunched their hits and the Torontos their errors, end as a consequence Utica came out ahead.

The following little table, which I have prepared, will bear reflection:

Pindergrass made a two-base hit Tuesday, and the I'ticas sa; it is an omen of gond luck. Keep them up

Bo:li Canadian clubs lost to-day. They will keep on losing while tho Uticas and Stars stay up there.

PcnderKiass has pitched in but one losing game thus far this season.

Utica is now a good second in the race.What is going to happen? Oswego and Binghamton

each won a game to-day!Davis, the Toronto pitcher, Is laid op and unable ti

officiate in tho box.The Stars seem to have lost all of their good luck

Green, their mascot, has been released; probably tha accounts for it.

According to the official averages taken from secre­ tary White's books, Shomberg leads the Internationa League batsmen with »n average of .400. Wood, o the Oswegos, is second with an average of .3.16, Shoupe and Timer following with averages of .324 and .31 respectively. Mike Grifflo leads in fielding, witl Oberlander, Knight, Vitner and Kienzle following.

Shomberg has played without an error on first t

"Sandy" Griffin ranks seventh in batting in th League.

The game between the Syracuse and Uticas on Jul 5 at Syracuse, will attract a big crowd from Utica and ft a consequence a special train on the New York Central has been rroviiled for the occasion.

It ha? been remarked that if the Oswepos would no arrange their batting order to many different times they would stand a better show of winning.

Buffalo has signed Fields, who played a few games with the Uticas. He is a good player, and will have

bats yet. H

lib, has been SIVILI.K.visiting frUmus In town this woek.

Billy Purcell in Clover.NEW YOBK, June 16.—Editor SPOBTISO Liri:—

While on my way to this city I passed through Wash iogton and bought there the last edition of THE SPOBT ISO LIFE. I read in the cotes that Purcell had a cloa shave, «s we were after Norton, the ex-manager o the-Savannah Club, to take his place as manager o the Atlanta Clnb. I must say that I never was mor astonished at anything in my life. Mr. Purcell ha given entire satisfaction in every particular, notwith standing various reports to the contrary, which hav been wilfully and maliciously started by papers in other cities that are competing with Atlanta forth pennant. Ton can readily, see why they should star snch rtports—it is simply done through jealousy an<! with the hope cf making bad feeling, etc.. in onr club I wish you would correct this, and I also wish to slat that I would not exchange Purcel! for five Morion' nor did I in any way waatever make any kind n proposition to Morton, nor would I have him for gift. You can rest assured that Mr. Pnrcell will con tinue to be manager of the Atlanta Club as long as h may wish or as long as I am connected with It. Ther never was a man on earth that works biirder to win game than Purc«ll. The entire team without excep tion like him, and are plajiog first-class ball. I an glad to say that I have finally got rid of the only dis turbing element In the club, Henry M. ore, whom blacklisted for dtoukenneis and other causes las

Cue Who Knows Fennelly.CAMDEX, N. J., Juno 21 — E.titor SPOBTI.VJ Lir«.—

Dear Sir—I read the aiticlc copied from the Enquirer (Cincinnati) in reference to M-illane, Vow nelly ana others of the Cincinnati Bme Ball Hub, in which it Is) intimated that those players, mentioned arc suspected of being In league with certain gamblers ami to hava thrown games to the Athletic and Brooklyn clubs. Not being acijuaintc-l with any of the players named! except Mr. Fcnuclly, I will net undertake to defend them. In reference 11 Mr. I'eriuclly I will say that I have known him for somo yen:?, when he first signed with tho Philadelphia Club anl aflorwsrils with th« Atlantic City, aud tho year after ho signed with tb» Merritls of Camdeu (of the liwt moniionui club I was one of the director-,). I have always recorded Mr. Fennelly as «ne of the most upright acd conscien­ tious men in tho base ball protection and do not be­ lieve he would violate noy of the iii'.cs of the Asso­ ciation. While Mr. Fennelly vraa connected with tba Merritts he ulways conducted Muiwlf ns a are.ntlfmatt on and oil tho ball flell. If all of the ittrtlrs connected with the base ball profession wore M honest, con* tcientious and upright as Mr. Feunelly, the National name would havu a better standing to-day than It has.

Yours, Ac., B.
