from Indianapolis and Outflldr WIIMm
from th St. Loul Brown, it will be very
strange if these two mfn fa4) ,a
material strength. Both hav, ahowr, tend
befor and both ara young and coming It
la always difficult for a itui to get back
i in the twln( aftar such a long losing streak
ss th Rourke hava had. but thay h.v.
f been fighting all tha way and that, of It
lf la a good indJcaUon. It Is entirely too
early In tha season to quit. Nobody should
think of giving up. especially just as wa
ara Importing new stock. It Is trua our
pitching staff haa been disappointing, very.
Not ona haa done aa wall aa he waa ex
pected to. Tat tha pltchara alone are not
to blame for tha train of defeata. They
hava dona aome excellent work. Meet of
tha games lost wera by cloae marginal
showing that Omaha, while beaten, was not
ally beaten. When Kaeley. Durbln.
Rhodes and the other get down to normal
condition wa believe tha team will very
readily jump back Into tha thick of the
fight. Thta must ba remembered: Omaha
baa its hardest row to hoe prior to July 4.
Moat of Its tough gamea abroad come In
that period. After that tha team spends
moet af Its time at home. Its present trip
away-flfteen games In all. Is about the
" worst It .will hava this aeaaon. To be aura
It haa not dona very well on this trip as
yet. but with Nlehoff an Id Wllllama to help
out should came back better than It went
way. Nlehoff waa counted the beet third
baseman In tha league when he was with
Des Molnea and ha ahould ba even faster
now. Hla presence will leave Schlpke free
with his duties aa capuln and give Rourke
an excellent Infield utility man In tha
Scrapper, who can work at ahort. second
or third. Thle change alona give a very
bright promlaa to tha outlook.

but has pitched only four gamea.

M a ara not aura but tha time haa come
for backing up a little on the leeway and
protection accorded tha umpire. In tha ef
fort to prevent umpira-balUng and to In
sure discipline, which tha game require
.bae ball law and thoaa who uphold It
I hava unintentionally, It aaema, given aome
Urnorant and unworthy fellows the false
iUmpreaelon that tha umpire is a law unto
himself., to do as ha pleaeea. and amenable
to none. That needs curbing. Soma um
piree In minor and major leaguea need
curbing. A thing happened In New York
last week, which, if correctly reported by
half a dosen aport writers who saw It
ought to eraphaaUa tha need for aome'
rational restraint upon umpires. In a game
between tha Cuba and Giants, tha Otanta
5eded ona run to tie.. two to win. It was
rnot tha ninth inning, but thara ware two

runner en third started for home. The

Ing tha man safe. In tha meantime tha
other runner, having coma on at a gallop
from aecond, crossed tha plate, scoring two

Giants. Of course, after Brannan raversed
his decision tha Cube ware helpless, aa
they heard only Ma "out" and even had
thay heard tha "safe" ooult nr ,.,.- .
back Into play In time to catch, tha aecond
runner. It la auch work aa this and that
dona by Knealand whioh will, if not
topped, hurt base ball. Player need dis
cipline and thay get it vary severely. Tha
umpire needa discipline and ahould get It.
Three decisions In ona Omaha-Blou City
gems vy xwneeiana were anousrh
him hla job. s
There should not ba much argument over
tha play at Lincoln In tha eleven-Inning
game which furnishes Don Dee pain with
his cauaa for protesting. Tha play U thla:
Lincoln has a runner on third and ha
takea a big lead tor home and starts a
second before tha Omaha pitcher dull vera
the ball. Tha Omaha catcher steps In front
of tha plata receives tha ball and tags the
runner, who is called out by tha umpire.
The only question ia whether or not tha
pitcher waa In tha box when ha made tha
delhery. if ha waa and the catcher Inter
fered with the batter, who waa about to
bunt, tha runner waa safe; If the pitcher
not in the box whan ha threw tha
tha runner waa out, for the batter
ts no right to bat at a bail delivered from
any spot In the diamond eaeeot the
pitcher'a box. The same play haa coma up
In tha major league and been deolded on
thla basis, which would seem to b tha
only ruUonal way of deciding It Of course
tha club In Omaha' position In tha ease
at hand might reasonably argue that the
team In the field haa a right to avail Itself
of every facility to. put a runner out, Just
u the team at bat haa every right to
I wore when it haa a chance. But thla line
, of argument leada only to endleee oenfu
sion. The ruling we have quoted I neces
sary to protect tha pinch play. Otherwise
catchers might be stepping la front of bat
ter on any occasion where the tlnch la
attempted. Now, If Omaha can ehow that
Durbln waa not in tha box when ha threw
ine uau, or if. Lincoln cannot show that he
was. tha decision should, and probably will,
stand. At any rate that decision alone
mould not decide the game. But In tha
meantime thla la the aecond protest to go
in against thla fellow Kneeland within a
week. Other teams beeldes Omaha will
find him put if ha stays in th league long
enough.
If Murphy ha to let go of Rueibach and
Ptelster, it would be more decent to re
lease them outright and let them do the
best they can for themselves. That I
what moat people thought be should have
dona wit Btetnfeldt. but It ia not tha
Murphy way of doing. What are men who
have helped give him four pennant, two
world' lags and oodle Of money, when
they start downT
It Is to bad that Wichita, the vaunted
"Metropolis of western Kanaaa. cannot
find time to support as good a ball team
as Manager Isball haa given it- It speaks
badly for a city to paaa up auch a chenoe.
libell, we hope, will leave the town unless
It comes across with patronage, but why
he should go to Pueblo Instead of Colorado
Springs I beyond eur ken.

ROURKES AWAY FOR WEEK1
Pa ii Still Trying to Strengthen Up
Hii Family.
TWO NEW PLAYERS ARE ADDED
Roarke Is Still oa the Leokesl for
a Ckasre te treagtiea His
Pltcbla staff Leta In
Ge4 Feres.
But one mora week away from horn and
the Rourkes will come back to Omaha to
play a series of six xsmes. They will
then leave for two davs and return for
two more gamea at home.
One week from Tuesday Is the date of
the next game at hime. rin that day the
Colts will oren a three-came series with
the Lincoln team. Three gamps will then
be played with the Wichita team. Imme
diately following the last game the
Omaha boya will Jump to Denver, where
two games will he played there. The team
will then Jump back to Omaha fr two
gamea with Topeka, and then leave for
thirteen days on the road, nn which trip
they will meet Lincoln, 1'enver, Topeka
and Wichita.
On Monday. May 2: the RiurKes will
have an off day, which ts Riven them for
travel. The team, however, win arrive
home on the I2d and take a much needed
rest.
With half of the present trip over, the
Rourkea have been plavlnx a loose sort of
ball, due probably to the Inability of the
placers to get together on team work.
The pitcl lng staff has not been able to
get goins, but Hourke Is now out after
new men for this branch of the line up,
and will In all probability have a couple
of new pitchers on his staff insl.le of two
weeks' time.
Two new men have been acquire! for
the field. Czar Neihoff, the heavy hittlnn
third aacker who was seen with the lies
Moines esrgrejration lnat year, and who
went to Pittsburg and later to Indianap
olis, will Join the Rourkes at Topeka to
morrow morning.
On Tuesday mornlnjr Ous Williams, a
former South Omaha boy and reremly of
the Monmouth team of the Central naso
clatlon. la the other player acquired by
Pa Rourke. Thin youngster li a sensa
tion in the Central rssociatlon i&st year,
and will be seen In the right Kartlen whtn
the team appears at home.
With these two new men.lt la thuualit
that the team will be strengthened nbout
60 per cent. Manager Schlpke, who has a
bum knee, wiii be able to get out of the
game in favor of Neihoff. This move v 111
make Kneaves' position much easier for
him. What th change In the outfield
will be la still undecided.
The Omaha fans have not given up
hope and attribute the numerous losses in
the trip to an early season slump. It Is
predicted by those who know that Omaha
will pick up on thfe second wins; of the
present trip and come back homi with a
place In the first division. Rourke Is
doing everythlns possible to briny the
boy together and get them started again
He has given all the youngsters who have
been on the sick list all the freedom they
needed, but haa not had enough men to
substitute in their place and unsatisfac
tory change In th line up have bem the
result.
All the pitcher on the team have taken
a slump with the exception of Lots, who
appear to ba right this year, and at the
present tim 1 th mainstay of th pitch
ing staff. He pitched a remarkable game
at horn against Sioux City and held them
to two hit and no run in six Inning,
after Rhodes had been batted for four
hits and five runs In three innings. Thurs
day he made a great showing against th
Uncoln team, and It was hi pitching that
won th game. He, however, weakened
in th eighth Inning after holding tho team
to two cors and one hit
