Baseball Magnate Robinson Does the
Square Thing by Some Street Car Con-
ductors.
UnitedPrsss Dispatch By Special Wires
CLEVELAND, ONO, Dec. 6.-Presi-
dent Frank DeHaas Robinson, owner of
the Cleveland Baseball Club, yester-
day, showed that while he will not dis
pose Of his baseball interests for less
than his fixed price, $45, 900, he is still a
prince of liberal men.
Some time ago the Little Consolidated
Street Railway Company, of which he
is one of the heaviest stockholders,
offered 500 apiece to all conductors
who served the company year without
accident. Upon President Robinson's
return from New York, last Thursday,
he learned that 10 conductors had been
discharged on account of dull times,
eight of whom were entitled to 500.
Each of these men were given the re-,
ward yesterday, with the statement
from Mr.. Robinson:
81 give up this $500 because you have
earned it. If the stockholders do not
approve of my action my purse can
stand it.n
