Here's one of those team pictures that has been printed in books, discussed online and still the IDs have never really matched up. Most prominently, the picture was featured in the book "The Western League: A Baseball History" in 2002 with the players listed as:


Top Row, L-R: Fred O'Neill, Thomas McAndries, G. Higgins (Pres.), Jack Ryan, Welday Wallace (Mgr.), Bill Mountjoy

Middle Row, L-R: Joe Straub, Ed Silch, Henry Lauser, Tom Hogan, Dan Dugdale, Frank Meinke

Bottom Row, L-R: Darby O'Brien, George Tebeau

I have many issues with those proposed identifications. The ones I think are correct are: O'Neill, Silch, Dugdale, Meinke, O'Brien and Tebeau. Higgins is most likely correct as well.
