Bonner will be here on Monday and
so will Meaney. Each of them has
been mentioned as having failed to ac-
cept terms.
I'm Beard, Boyd and Daily the club
has made a ten-strike," said Manager
Griffin. Respectively each will be a
tower of strength to the infield, bat
terry and outfield. My signing them
was a stroke of good fortune and don't
think any club in the league will have
received greater strength in the secur-
ing of any three men,"
On Saturday and Monday the players
will report and will practice twice daily
until Thursday, the 18th. From then
until the 29th when the season opens,
exhibition games have been scheduled
at home as follows: April Is and 16,
Cuban Giants; April II, Olyphant
Browns; April 90, Bloomsbury State
Normal school. On the 18th the club
will go to Philadelphia to play the Ath-
letics and arrangements are pending
for games at Lancaster and Reading on
the return home. April 20 and 21. The
dates, April 23, "a, 26, 27, 2S are open
but may be partly filled by games at
Newark and Paterson.
Today work at Athletic park will be
started in cleaning the dressing rooms
and putting the bathing and hot water
apparatus in condition. The outfield is

FASTER THAN PROVIDENCE.

Providence finished first last sea-
son with only two real base runners,
Murray and Lyons. and second the
year before with practically the same
makeup. We are faster than Provl-
dence and 1 cannot see where we are
weaker collectively, in the field; we
surely can hit as often and as hard-so
there you are.
II cannot tell now exactly how the
team will be made up. OF course
have mapped it out in my mind and
any one who knows the players we
have would figure the makeup about
as / have DONE but there's no telling
what might happen before the season
opens. However, there is no position
with less than from two to four men to
fill it. That doesn't include pitchers.
There are six pitcher candidates,
Gillon, Meaney, Harper, Yerkes, Well
ner and Morse, each tried man and a
good one. We shall retain but four,
although the entire six will be carried
for time"
Harper and Gunson, so Manager Grlf-
fin said, are the only players who
haven't signed. Both are holding out
for over the limit, but the owners are
firm in their refusal to break faith
with other clubs and pay more than
the rules permit and SANDY" is with
them in that purpose. Neither Harper
nor Gunson can afford to jump into a
non agreement league. so it is hard to
figure how they can play elsewhere
than here.

MANAGER SANDY
COMES TO TOWN
On Him Scranton Base Ball Crsuks Pin
Their Faith.
HE is CONFIDENT OF SUCCESS
Makes No Boasts, but Is Not Doubt-
ful in Asserting That the Scranton
Team Compares Favora bly, with the
Leading CIubs--Has an Intelligent
and Heavy Hitting Lot of Players.
Two to Four Men for Each Position.

Sandy" Griffin, the base ball mana
geron whom is pinned the faith of thou
sands of Scranton base ball cranks, ar
rived here yesterday from his home at
Fayetteville, N. Y. He is head over
heels in mass of correspondence that
has been accommodating at the st.
Charles hotel since Friday and which
with other early-season duties will
keep him busy until the championship
games begin.
Manager Griffln's arrival had been
ardently anticipated by the club own
ers and others who anxiously awaited
personal interviews in corroboration
of the much good news and little un-
favorable gossip that had reached here
through indirect channels. In those
particulars there are no material
changes in the facts already chron-
icled in The Tribune.
In discussing the clubs prospects
Manager Griffin was not boastful nor
doubtful in his assertion that he would
land a team at least well up toward
the top. His reasons were that there
would not be an untried player on the
club; the team was, on paper, as
heavy If not the heaviest batting team
in the league; there was an even bal
ance of old and young material, and
the men were without exception pos
sessed of more than ordinary intell-
gence. When asked If he considered
the players sufficiently fast he replied:
