Speaking Of Rlchmond's last game in
Lancaster, when the Cherubs made thir-
teen errors, the Richmond State says:
Its too bad that the best folding,
club IN the league should have played
such a completely demoraliZing and life
less game."J
Come. come Brother Cardoza, you
don't mean 1t, do YOU? The Cherubs
may be one of the thrce-I should snv
and hardest hitting team The Chcrubs
are decidedly not. I'm not saying which
team is, because I've not yet made up
my mind.
take the following, relative to Shat
fer, from the Pittsbulg Post:
New Castle, Pa, June 2l.-A curious;
complication has arisen in q baseball
way over the signing Of Sharf FER, OF the
Norfolk CVa) team. by New Castle,
and 1t Is more than likely that President
Young will have to settle It, Shafre-
was signed by New Castle last Saturday,
after q number Of letters had passed be
tween New Castle and the player He
was released by Norfolk on Saturday
morning, and at once wired President
Lamorse that he would accept New Cas-
ties terms and would report at Wheel
Ing to-day. On Sunday afternoon a tel
egram was received here that Norfolk
had recalled the release and would not
part with Shaffer The matter stands
that way at the present time, but 1t will
be referred to President Young.
New Castle can safely bank on keen
ing Shaffer who wa: rclea scd by Norfolk
on Saturday, but whose release was re-
called on Sunday. After Il player Is
given his relea.se his relation to his old
team Is the same as TO all other teams
lie must be negotiated with. If Nor
folk signs the player after the latter ac-
cepted New Castles terms, the Inter
state League club will have L good cas-,
against the Atlantic League club"
Manager Broom, when interviewed in
regard to the above, cmphatically stated
that there was not word OF truth in
that portion Of the press dispatch stating
that Norfolk had recalled Shafrcr. shat
fer, said Manager Broome was re-
leased in Reading, Nnd we know nothing
whatever about his signing with New
Castle having been under the impress
sion that he had accepted ITouston's
terms Norfolk has not recalled him,
and had no intention Of doing So"
Manager Smith informs me that Shat
Ter accepted New Castles terms before
hearing from Houston, and probably
counted upon the New castle managers
personal friendship to let him off, when
no received Houston's offer" Sha
Will probably be here Tomorrow" said
Manager Smith last night. He is on his
way 10 Houston, having remained in
heading waiting for Il ticket"
