Rreitenstein for Rnsie,

st. Louis, Mo-, April 2s.-President Won
der Abe said today Of the proposed trade Of
Rusie for Breitenstein that he would con-
slider it under certain conditions. These
conditions are probably for cash considera-
ton. Won der Ahc thinks that Rusie would
fill the place in the hearts OF the local fans"
that Breitensteih occupies, and with cash to
boot he would be just so much in. The ex-
change would not be a all popular here, and
it is pretty certain that Freedman would
not put up anything on the outside for the
st. Louis twrler.

BOYS, YOU WANT A LEAGUE
Suggestion tothe Many Ball Toss
of the District.
The Times Proposes tn Help Organize
the Boys Seventeen Years and I'm
der and Invites Their Views.

If there is one city in the United States
where the youthful lover of the national
game holds forth in all his glory IT Is
Washington.
Every evening the vacant lots are peopled
with the youngsters, and some very good
bail is PLAYED. The lads have organized
and there are at least half hundred clubs
In the city today. They are all anxious to
play with each other, but there is much
trouble TO arrange games, for many reasons.
With the idea that the relative strength
of the various teams can be tested, and
with a view to put each club on an equal
footing, The Times proposes to help these
youngsters to thoroughly organize a
league OF boys clubs, the ages OF the
players not TO exceed seventeen years.
The Times will be glad to hear from clubs
that would like to enter such a league, feel
ing confident that the suggestion will be
taken hold of by the youthful tossers,
who hope to have some degree of fairness
in amateur bah pla ying.
The organization can he effected after
i is demonstrated be yond Il doubt that the
teams are in earnest.
One of the requirements OF the proposed
league will be that each club must be uni
formed in proper style, and no club. unless
uniformed or a positive guarantee given
that suits will be purchased, will be con
sidcred in the selection OF the clubs neces-
sary 10 the formation OF the league.
Other rules and regulations will be
made 10 make an organization possible.
and a schedule OF games formed and other
matters conducted in u business like man
ncr.
The Times invites the young players
eligible to the proposed league To send their
views and they are assured that any sug-
gcstions they may make will receive due
consideration.
Now, then, boys, II you are hustlers you
can have a league aud fair play during the
whole season.
