Minor Ileagues Up Against It.
Tlie majority of the minor leagues
are nearing the end of their season,
the closing date for most of the little
circuits 1 icing Het for Labor day. As
the season lids lieen oue of the
“bloomer” variety there are likely to
be few tears shed by the "bush” mag-
nates who the final curtain is rung
down.
A few of the minor league clubs will
be able to show a profit and some of
the others may manage to break even
hut it is safe to predict that a large
majority w’ill close up shop owing
thcmselvosmoney. Unusually had
Weather conditions and lack of public
interest have combined to put the
skids under the pastime.
Two years ago the now defunct
Federal League started the minors
down the toboggan by grabbing the
“bush” stars and neglecting the for-
mality of slipping a little change in
return. When the Feds died last
winter the minors lirenthed n sigh of
relief and started forthwith to pre-
pare for what they figured would be a
soft and soothing 1910 season. Noth-
ing doing. In nearly all sections J.
Pluvlus lias been on the job early and
late with the result that the season
now. nearing its close must be added
to the two previous disastrous years,
making three flivs in a row.
The only bright spots in the picture
of gloom are found among the few
top-liners in the larger minor leagues,
the American association and the In-
ternational, Western, Southern and
Pacific coast leagues. Pennant con-
tenders In these leagues will come
through right side up. But outside
the Class AA and Class A leagues,
minor league baseball at a profit Is
likely to be unknown this year. The
one remaining chance for the little
clubs to gather some coin is the un-
loading of some of their players to
clubs of higher classification, either
through sale or draft.
The rough going naturally has re-
sulted in many break downs and
changes in circuits among the minors
this season.
The Atlantic league, •« newcomer,
was forced to “blow” after only a
few weeks of pnstiniing, while the
Ohio State League, an old organiza-
tion. has been shot to pieces. Burling-
ton has dropped out of the Central
association and the Virginia league has
been obliged to can Hopewell because
lakes more than optimism to run a
ball team.
Albany’s flop In the South Atlantic
League also carried down Montgom-
ery. which city it was found necessary
to drop In order to balance the cir-
cuit. In the New York state league
Troy proved to he a 111 and the team
hat bug and valise, was transferred
to Harrisburg. The Northern league
will endeavor to worry through the re-
mainder of the season minus the Fort
William and Virginia teams.
Two small eireults, the Dixie and
the Georgia-Alabnnia leagues, seem
to have lilt upon the right. Idea. Both
came through ami finished the season,
even if they didn’t clean up a bundle
of goof.
The closing dates scheduled by the
different leagues, big and little, are
as follows:
American league, October 4.
National league. October 5.
American Association, October 1.
International league, September 17.
