OUTINGS ADVERTISED RUsIE,
But the Ex-Giant Refused to Go ia
Terre Haute.

Amos Rusie has not gone to New York
to join the Giants" as was reported last
night in a dispatch from Terre Haute. He
was seen al his home. Us Walcott street, by
a Journal reporter last night. Rusie thinks
that the announcement vas made as a SUBJ
terfuge to account for his nonappearance at
Terre Haute after it had been advertised
that he would pitch the game there. Rusie
says that he was asked Saturday to go to
Terre Haute, but refused to do so, even
though ii was suggested that he need not
pitch more than four or five innings.
Rusie is not at all anxious to go to New
York this season., and has. In fact, demand
ed his release of the national board. Last
night he said that the status of affairs was
about the same as ten days ago, when an ac-
count was given In the Journal of the contro-
versy between himself and the management
Of the New York club. Several days ago
Rusie's attorney, r.. o. Hawkins, sent the
national board a written statement of Ru-
sizes position, together with a demand for
his release from the New York club. Presi-
dent Young, of the National League, ac-
knowledged the receipt OF the but
nothing further has been heard from him,
and Ii is not known when anything will be
done nor what the outcome will be. Rusie
is not very outspoken. but intimates that If
he is not released he will not play ball this
summer, although he might consider a propo-
sition to play with the New York team II
the fines placed against him last season were
RENTED and a public acknowledgment made
that he was in the right.
