JJMMY CASEY'S TEAM Former Montreal Leader Pilots Runner-up in Central League Three Want to Sell Out. DETROIT, Sept 25. If the owners of the minor league clubs of the country are millionaires Just at present it ln because of the etrediu or their clubi poured into their coffers, for the season has been an off one for the minors, according to former Tiger James Casey, who has been managing the Fort W'ayne club of the Central league. But Casey has returned to Detroit to spend the winter after finishing the season with Fort Wayne In second place In the pennant race, Dayton having copped the bunting. The former Tiger third baseman has some sad experiences to relate.

Upon returning to his home shelter after the club's last trip abroad, which was a winning excursion for tie Fort Wayne bunch, some 63 or more ardent fans turned out to see them whip the next team that showed up in the Indiana city. The Casey men won that afternoon's game and another big crowd saw the next day's game. The Fort Wayne club made expenses that's an, says James. Three of the Central league clubs are for sale. As none of them Is supposed to have made any money except the pennant winner, there seems to be a reason.

However, It Is not all the fault of the league or of the towns that these Central league clubs didn't clear more than expenses. The year has been an off one for the minors, It Is said, all over the country. "Jlmmie" doesn't know whether he will be In baseball next year, but he says In an insinuating way, "I've been in the game some 20 years," which means that he'll be In It some 20 more probably. The Chicago Cubs, Brooklyn and the Tigers have all had the Detroit man's services at various times. His first managerial position was with the Montreal club.

Erve Wratten Clouted the Ball for the Circuit With One on Against the Pullmans Yesterday. Orioles Have Good Season on Home Lot Win All But Nineteen Games. BALTIMORE, Md Sept. 25.

Fig. ures tell the tale of Baltimore's loss of the pennant more forcibly than a ords, the summary for the season indicating beyond doubt that the poor Bhowlng of the team on the road was responsible for the Orioles' downfall. There Is perhaps no team in the league that can boast a better record on its own grounds, as throughout the season Baltimore only lost 19 games on the York road grounds, whereas the victories total 59. On the road, however, the losses numbered 36, while Jack Dunn's team got 34 victories. The great majority of these wins were secured from Jersey City, Newark, Providence and Buffalo, while Montreal, Rochester and Toronto had no difficulty in defeating the locals when they had them on their own lot.

Rochester was more successful here than any team of the Beven, the Hustlers proving by far the best road club in the circuit. Could Baltimore bo distribute her runs as to use spare runs to overcome her defeats the Orioles would have no trouble making up many deficiencies. So far the Orioles have scored 709 runs, as against 523 for the opponents, the largest number of tallies for Baltimore in a single game having been registered against the Montreal Royals on Mav 4, when the Canadians were beaten by a score of 22 to 13. Baltimore's only tie game was played against the Royals, the contest taking place on May 20. The score was 4 to 4.

BUFFALO PLAYERS MAKE GOOD AT SYRACUSE Cartle and Hilfinger Will. No Doubt. Make the Team. Football is well under way at Syra cuse. Coach Cummings men have been out three weeks now and the team has begun to shape itself into what looks like a fast one.

Castle, the old Buffalo Central High School star. Is holding down the end of the varsity. "Loole" Is making good, and It Is a safe bet that before the close of the season he will be one of the best men on the team. "Mart" Hilfinger, Lafayette'- old guard. Is also on the varsity, playing right guard, and It looks as though "Martie" would make good.

Yesterday the first scrimmage was held. The varsity lined up against the scrubs. The two elevens were evenly matched and the play was hot and Now and then a spectacular dash would enliven the scrimmages, but usually it was hard skidding for either team to gain consistently against the defense of the other. For a first signal practice the showing was good. The men handled themselves well and shewed the effect of Coach Cummings' drilling.

There were plenty of opportunities for the men to show what they were made of and they re sponded with a will. This is the line-up for the first scrimmage of the season: VARSITY. SCRUBS.

"The winning of the pennant by Rochester for the third consecutive time," said President Barrow, "constitutes a record in the league, for no other club has won tne flag even twice in succession. The success of John Ganzel's team was well earned, for it excelled in all departments and was Etrnno- nn tnp rn3d I.llCk I rtf a farrnr Tho nine went through the season practi cally intact. Offhand, I should Bay there was not any change whatever in the lineun from start to finish.

Gan- zel was well fortified with substitutes, but he had practically no use for them. Jack Dunn's Baltimore team, which ran a close race for the leadership, had worse luck, for three or four of the best men were laid up at times. "It has been an unusually interesting race," he continued, "notwithstanding 'the wide gap which separated first and second division teams. Both Baltimore and Toronto threatened to capture the pennant, and it is remarkable that either one of these clubs won enough games to do so under ordinary conditions. Rochester, however, being urged by the two speedy clubs at Its heels, ran its winnings up to 98 games out of the 152 played.

This Is another record for the league. "Toronto held the record for attendance," he said, "for the club there drew at times as many as 17,000. Buffalo and Baltimore were (he banner cities for Bteady attendance. An average of about 4000 spectator? saw every game In those cities. Not a club lost any money this year, and most of them made more than ever." Murray is Leader.

The batting and fielding records are not officially completed, but In commenting on the individual stars, President Barrow said: "Miller of Montreal Is to be credited with the most base hits and stolen bases, while Tim Jordan of Toronto, made no less than 20 home runs which helped a lot In keeping Toronto among the leaders. In the official averages Murray of Buffalo may be classed as the leader In batting, but he has not played in nearly as many games as Miller and Jordan. Pitching honors may safely be awarded to McConell of the pennant winners, who has just been sold to the New York Americans." President Barrow enumerated Rochester players who had been released to major league clubs Spencer, Foster, Moeller, McConnell, Simmons and Moran and said that, he thought Ganzel was figuring on a practically new aggregation for next year. President Barrow left last night for Rochester to make arrangements for the post season games between the pennant winners and an all-Btar nine of other Eastern league clubs, beg'n- ning at Kocnester tomorrow.

A general fight resulted and 2000 spectators swarmed around the participants. Spectators objected to Evans' calling a foul ball on Ball of the Cleveland team in the eighth inning and when he put Butcher out of the game In ninth for protesting after two strikes were called on him, they became more aggravated. When the game was over and Evans walked to-rard the club house, a man Jeered him, with an oath, Evans says, and Evans struck him. Irt front of the club bouse another man is said to have cursed him. Evans struck him and soon there was a general melee, which did not end even after members of the Cleveland and Philadelphia teams bore the umpire inside the club house.

The crowd demanded that Evans come back. Several women were in it and one was so badly wedged in the mass of people that two ball players had to rescue her and carry her Into the club house.
