NOW FOR A THIRD BASEMAN

Local Advisers VIII Evidently Su-.
gest 1ilut Some old Men Shall Go
in Exchange for Needed Man.

George Wagner aud his brother Earl,
who own the Washington franchise in
tie National League and reside in PIiila-
delphia, have completed one of the best
deals OF the season. When they got Doyle,
Rcitz and Amule for McGapn, James and
DcMontrevtlle Hanlun must have been in
a trance, because Washington got tie
best OF the deal by long odds.
Doyle viii undoubtedly he made the
captain. aud in this capacity ne is odds-on
better man than thedOcdl team has had
for many years, and, with the aid Of
Reitz, WIN get good work out Of Wugley
and ti.e third has man, v no rs yet TO come
ToIa Brown, who is looked upon As tn,
manager OF Tie Senators, says he VII
manage from the bench If the outfielder
under contract develop into better players
than he considers hiInsclf-
IL seems that the Baltimore deal ha
hung fire for some time, as the Wagners
it is said, wanted McGraw III place d
Reitz, but to this Hanlon would not
agree, and Z the astute 0ysterto wner gen
orally has his way in a trade, WasBin gtuI
has a clever second baseman
Those Who are in a position 10 know "a
that he trading has not reached H.
zenith. George Wagner wants a fast
third la sernan, and Earl Wagner G yidentl,
grees with his brother after getting
advice from a local scarce, which b,

Reilly, it is given out, to ComisGey 20
$500, and now only Wagner, from ivs

If the Wagners will trade Tom Tucker

Of the game in Washington Will have rca
