A BASEBALL PLAYERS PAY-A telegram 70
the n. y. Herald from Cleveland Jan 2 says:
The directors OF the Cleveland Baseball CLUB
have been expecting DuDlap's contract for some
time, but Ii failed to arrive for some reason,
and as the season is rapidly approaching and
as Dunlap is one OF the best men in the nine,
1t is DO wonder that the directors began to get
anxious. To-day the mystery was solved by
the appearance OF Dunlap, who came from the
East. He Immediately had an interview with
the directors and demanded that they pay him
Sl,GG0, the salary he drew last season. or grant
him release. The directors refused TO do
either, and were firm In saying they would give
him no extra pay. The great second basern an
then made threats, and declared that he would
not Stay unless they gave him his price. Clapp
he says, gets 81 500, and he considers himself
worth as much as he. The consideration or the
matter has been laid over by both parties until
tomorrow.
