The Orioles Fear That Hughey jennings
Arm Has Played Out.

The Washington Post says: The sus-
picion that Hughey jennings working

ened by the appearance at National Park
Saturday of one Mcdowell, n Baltimorean
and friend Of Ed. Hanlon. Mr.. Mcdowell

tween the Senator's and Richmond team
In u conversation with J. Earl Wagner it
was learned from Mcdowell that Jen-

Dowell said he had heard that Ieke Wrig.
ley, the utility infielder of the Washing
ton team, was fast young infie'der, and
one of the most promising young players
that had been drafted from the minor
league ranks in the past two years. Nc.
Dowell watched Wrigley, who was cover
ing the short field, and returned to Balti-
more. During the recent Southern trip
of the Champions Hanlan heard many
f1attering reports of Wrigley, who played
in Virginia League last season. Mr..
Wagner said he heard frequently within
the last month that Jennings had been
worrying about his arm, but he placed
but little faith in the rumor that tn {,
brilliant shortstop's wing had gone com.
pletely back .on him. The unexpected
visit of Mcdowell to Washington, how.
ever, lends color to the report of the pass.
ing of Jennings wing, and Mr.. Wagner
winked significantly when asked to ex-
press himself as to the nature of Mellow
ellis visit. He stated positively, however,
that he could not afford to part with
Wrigley ut any price or offer within rea-
son.
Capt. Tom Brown was not at all sur
prised to hear of AlcDowell's mysterious
visit. Said Tom: "Jennings arm was in
Il bad shape late last season. and it looked
to me only II question Of n season or two
before his wing would fail him com
pletely. When he played short for the
Colonies he complained of his arm, and
was out OF the game off and ON every few
months"
Wrigley, for whom Hanlon is supposed
to be angling, is Il fast fielder and good
hitter, and with another season in the
fast company ought to be one of the fast
est infelders in the League. No one is
aware OF this fact more than TIanlon, who
realizing that he cannot land De Montre
villeat any price would doubtless be salts
fled to compromise on Wrigley. 1t lids
been common talk among the Washing
ton players the past month that Jeh-
nings' arm has caused him no end of
worry. That the hopes of the Orioles to
land the pennant for the fourth time will
be utterly blasted in the event that Jen-
ninGs' wing fails him there can he no
doubt.
