The reasons that have moved the
Brooklyn management TO decide on SO
sweeping change in the team are
based on the very poor showing of
Brooklyn the past season. The team
had won the National League pennant
Of 1890, and with the accession of John
Ward as manager and captain, great
things were expected, While to some
extent the fact that Brooklyn is in
faster company this year than she was
last explains the poor position of the
team, yet it does not account by any
means for the bad showing Of the or
ganization. The players are mainly
of the star order, and draw large sal
aries In the face of this they are
likely to be beaten out by three
of the cheapest teams in the
league-Chieago, Philadelphia and
Cleveland. The management of
the Brooklyn club has observed with
chagrin that teams made up of young
and low-salaried players have toyed
with Their high-priced stars, and they
have determined in the future to try
the Young blood idea in
their team. The fact that
Chicago, with the least expensive
team that has been in the league in
four years past, bids fair to walk off
with the pennant has given the Brook
lvn management food for serious
thought. They are so far as is known,
entirely satisf d with John Wards
work. and lay the ill success of the
team to the actions of arrogant stars
who know more than the manager or
captain at all stages of the game, and
are too lofty in their ideas 10 follow
the instructions of good field
general. Therefore the managers
have decided to cast 'adrift these stars
and fill their places with young, am
bilious players, who will be willing to
be guided bv John Ward and work for
the interest of the team without refer
ence to their own peculiar ideas as to
how the club should be run
The managers now have their eyes
on three or four promising young
bloods who will be lassooed for
next season, and there is a settled
determination to have these young
players even If it is found necessary to
sign ten men in order to get one good
one. 1t is also settled belief with
the Brooklyn management that it is
not good thing for a player to remain
on one team for too many successive
years If Mr.. Byrne's example is fol-
lowed by other league managers land
