NOTHING DONE ABOUT AFtT DAY ITS CONCERNING ROCKY MOUNT TEAM. From 10 o'clock Tuesday night until 6: 15 Wednesday morning, the directors of the Eastern Carolina League met at Goldsboro. The representative of the News and Observer was' there and some outsiders interested In the Raleigh club, such as Mr. Glenn, Mr. Hunter and Crozier.

One of the first things done was motion to exclude the press from the meeting and after an amended motion it was agreed to let the News and Observer representative stay, provided his report should be approved by the directors. The meeting was stormy throughout, motions were made and tabled. charges were brought and denied, mo- tlons were carried and reversed. It Is very difficult to tell what did really I occur. I As far pi can be learned from Mr.

R. T. Gowan, secretary of the League, about the only thing definitely settled. I according to his record, were: That Raleigh be authorized to draw on Fayetteviile for 352.98, this being the money that Fayetteviile deducted, believing that Raleigh should not have deprive Fayetteviile of her part of the gate receipts In the game that Fayetteviile forfeited to Raleigh in the erly pact of the season; that upon motion of Mr. Mason, of Rocky Mount Raleigh should be authorised to drawn on Rocky Mount for a claim er 115.00; that the games In which Luyster play ed before he was eligible be given to the opposing teams, 9 to 10.

There Is a good deal of doubt about this motion as it was taken up several different times with a different result A3 to the protest by Raleigh of the games In which Lyster played for Fayetteviile, President Washington announced that Fayetteviile had proven that Luyster was purchased from Rocky Mount and. the check for the purchase price of 8800 iwas Immediately paid. So this protest by Raleigh did not hold. The matter, of affidavits gotten up by Mr. R.

B. Evans regarding the laying, down of Rocky i was taken up and a long controversy took place. In the first place several maintained that the affidavits amounted to nothing as they were no charges against any one particularly and that they were presented by an outside party. Mr. Napier, of Fayetteviile.

arose and read two affidavits which stated that Pope 'and Crozler were In favor of Wilson's winning, and that they would help. Mr. Crosier flatly denied the affidavits relative to him. Mr. Napier went on to.

say that was the trouble with affidavits made in general, and that he thought the affidavits i should be stricken out At any rate there was no action taken of the affidavits as nothing could be done. Mrj Mason, of Rocky Mount wanted to know if these charges were made of any: one in particular, and if so. he demanded that nothing be unless the parties charged could be present to protect their Interests, as there was no law in the land that could keep a man from being present when he waa being tried, so to speak. The affidavits gotten, up in Wilson follows: William Phoenix's Affidavit "To Whom it May Concern: "This is to certify that while playing -as- second 4. -undor the name of Lennox.

Holt The following ouestlcns are propounded by Earl Holt manage? Wilson Team. If the last seven or ten games played by Rocky Mount have been entirely above board, we would like for some one thoroughly posted on the inside affair of the club to answer the fol-lowlnf? questions: (1) Why was Luyster (shortly previous to this), an Ineligible player, whom Rocky Mount had attempted to play under an assumed name, pitched three successive days against Wilson, then not put In the box against Fayetteviile. but rold at the close of that series to the Fayetteviile club? (2) Why were Walsh. Rapp, James and Lambert In every line up against Wilmington? (3) Why didn't Manager Walsh and two other regular players accompany the team to Wilmington for the game there on Thursdsy last? (4 Why have the fans at Rocky Mount quit attending the games, there having been less than one hundred paid admissions at one of the Wilmington games there (5) Why did Umpire Watson, a Wilmington man. who umpired the Wilmington series in Rocky Mount state that he thought that the games were thrown? (6) Why did two or three of the Rocky Mount players openly state that they were going to- throw every game to Wilmington? (7) Why did one Rocky Mount player offer to bet five i dollars that Fayetteviile would win three straight games from them? (8) Why did a certain player on the Wilmington say that he waa thoroughly disgusted at the whole af-alr, that he had before heard of anything like it in organised baseball? i (9) Why was O'Gara.

va- chronic loser, pitted against Wilmington for two successive days? (10) Finally, why couldn't Rocky Mount get a single out seven with Wilmington when they have been trimming the latter regularly all sum mer, and at a time when the Rocky Mount club was weaker and the Wilmington clubstronger than during the recent series? R. B. EVANS, FAYETTEVILLE WANTS TO KNOW Fayetteviile. N. August 24.

ISOf. Sporting Editor News and Observer: In Sunday's issue of your paper I notice that you claim to have given the Fayetteviile ball team a square deal In the News and Observer, and the statement also that you are willing to publish signed communications. I hope you will publish this, for I want to ask you two or three questions which I would like for the baseball public to. read. It was a noticeable fact that during last week's games between the Red Birds 'and Highlanders you 'did not publish a single, tabulated score of the results.

Did you think that all he boasted ten thousand readers of the News and Observer were living ift Raleigh, and that all were sympathizing with the Raleigh team? 1 By not giving the tabulated scores did you hope to keep the reading public in ignorance of the individual and collective work of the- Fayetteviile team, and hide the showing made by the Raleigh: players? There are at least a few News and Observer readers outside of Raleigh and Raleigh's admirers, and these few would like to see a Just proportion of space devoted to Fayetteviile sporting news as well as to the teams of other cities. No' lack of space when Raleigh wins, but when she loses "mum is the word. Respectfully, i G. C. DAVIDSON.

Mr. having possibly had no experience in trying to get tabulated scores of baseball -games for newspapers, sees only his side of the matter. The News and Observer has a correspondent who lives in Fayette vllle'and he has had instructions the whole season to send us tabulated scores. He failed to do so while Raleigh waa In Fayette vile. despite the fact that they were i wanted In this office, It costs lota of money to get details and tabulated scores by wire during- the ball season, but the News and Observer has not considered this and has not spared money to get full reports.

This paper has endeavored to give a full hearing to every club, and It assures Mr. Davidson that it would have been glad to have published the tabulated scores if it could have gotten them, whether Raleigh won or lost It: believes in baseball and has spent money to help it along. It has printed all the baseball news sent by Its Fayetteviile' correspondent and It regrets that he failed to give the tabulated scores, about which Mr. Davidson makes complaint. We trutt that his questions have been satisfactorily answered.

The facts briefly are that upon the correspondent' failure to send block score of second game he was wired by this paper to be sure to send It next day, but he did-not do so, but he wrote a letter, which is on file in this office, explaining that the official scorer had promised to furnish him! with a block score, but he didn't give It Now. It is hoped Mr. David son! can see that this was no fault the jNews and Observer. NATIONAL LEAGUE. Philadelphia, Aug.

Raleigh failed to laugh last In the aerie with Rocky Mount, or to. laugh last in the last of its games at home for. the season, as yesterday afternoon by the close score of. one, to nothing, the Red Birds were run over by the Y- Rocky Mount Railroaders for, it Is dangerous for even Red Birds to get on the track when the Railroaders are steamed bp, Raleigh's trouble was the Inability of its swatters to connect with ihe sphere at" the times that a hit would have done the business. Twice were the bases full, but no hit developing.

It was down and out for the Birdies. Only three times in the game did the Raleigh Birds hit Waymack, while the Railroaders drove the ball seven times on Fie Fullenwider. Only one run resulted for the Rocky Mount team, this-scored in the third inning, but this was enough to win -the game, the run. being made by Catcher Conn. Rocky Mount did some lovely field workjand pulled off three double plays, one by Ogara Unassisted, one by Murray unassisted," and one from Farrell to Ogara.

In the contest. between the pitchers Fullenwider struck out fire men, while Waymack fanned not one -Red Bird. The game had some lovely stunts in it at, times and there were about 800 who say, the 'last of the' series here.

(Special to News and Observer.) Goldsboro, N. Aug. 25. Goldsboro had everything her own way today, and Wilmington didn't a look-in at the last game played this season on the home grounds. The locals fielded In a snappy, sensational fashion and batted like fiends.

Prltchard was an enigma and held the visitors at his mercy. He started likewise at the bat getting out of four lmes a single, wo doubles and a triple that cored three runs. Doak also found his former team mates for four hits out of as many times at the bat besides scoring four- runs, while Stubbe had a batting average of 750. Howard was knocked out in the second and Sexton and Wysong. who succeeded him, were batted at will.

Epler hit to right field, but by the fast fielding of Dick Smith, was thrown out at first Wilmington put In 14 men to stop the scoring, but the Giants. In their old-time form would admit of no break off, 'and delight ed the' faithful fans -who have ever supported them through the seasons reverses. j- Wilmington. AB. It JL PO.
