Text | Naturally enough comes the question to The Tribune, What do you think of it [the Louisville scandal]? The answers are not long: 1. There has been as much crookedness in St. Louis as in Louisville. 2. The attempt to cut off the investigation by hanging up Joe Blong and Joe Battin is like stopping a fountain with a handful of salt. 3. Honesty cannot be had in the game until at least two other men connected with the St. Louis Club have been put away from it. Professional gamblers don’t make good ball-players. |
