The Austin dispatch of The Post this

the Interview in the ExINess this morn

Brennan" The following is the interview.
as published by the san Antonio Express
iu ITS issue of Thursday:
You can say for me that any one who
charges the Bronchos with winning the

and nothing else" said Pitcher Silly
Crowell OF the Houston team. talking to
some friends yesterday. The Eronchos
won FIRST place through sheer force OF
ability and nothing else. You people have

as there is in the league, II not Il SHADE
better--but Won have a set Of brainy play
ers who know how to play the fine points
OF the game without 1t being hammered
into them, and lhey are guided by one Of
the best baseball generals in the business
The team is strong at every point and
none can equal II for being well balanced
Here is no lighting and chewing among

tho time for theC own common good.
They are not hamnered all the time by
directors and crazy Stockholders. They
do not expect to got released every time
they make errors. Their employers treaf
them Hike white men. too There Is every
reason IN uhe world why the EConchos
should have won first place and / don,
thiuk theSe are any other players that
grunge them the honors. As for our team
getting q first place next time, there VIII
have to be some very radical changes
made in 1t before that can be accom-

in the team management too much and
there Is II whole lot of unnec cry

we will be lucky if we don't WIND az in

II is unnecessary to comment on the
above. Even IL Crowel would admit what
he is charged with saying. no one in
Houston would give IL the slightest at
tention. Houston players do not fear ~
lease when they make errors, and Man

rectors. Ma. 1'aub owns the lease of the
Houston franchise for the season of 1871.
and he controls the dastines of the team
financially. The directors of the Hons
