ANsoN's RETIREMENT.
Sir. SpnIding Practically Confirms
the RumOrS.


New York January ga. G. Spalding.
ball club, was asked ON his arrival here
from Chicago. last night, for confirmation
or denial OF the rumor that Adrian Q. An-
son was to be dropped from the manage
ment of the Chicago team. Mr. Spaldipg
said:
ut is a delicate subject for me TO talk
about, for have a sentimental feeling for
Arson. as We once played ball together.
have taken pains as mediator to find
out from Chicagoans how they feel about
a change of management. There Is de-
cIded undercurrent in favor OF the latter.
Lovers OF baseball think that Arson has
been in power too Tong. Though holding
such an opinion they in no wise cr,itlciss
Anson's management or playing. they
point to the fact that they have had the
old man for twenty-five years and use 1t
as an argument for wanting a new face.
Baseball Is a public amusement, and "a
ball club like a thea.er or any form OF
amusement enterprise, If It desires 10 sue
coed must cater TO the public. 4 player Is
retained on a team Only by virtue OF the
approval OF those who patronlze the sport.
In this matter OF a change. The Chicago club
has been In most embarrassing position.
Ansop has been loyal and has shoAn his
integrity and his honesty and has done
Hcrculean work in helping build up the
National game.
"The club wants TO take care of Anso,"
continued Mr.. Spalding. Gle naturally
looks to me, for as ! have said. we played
together years and years ago, On our re-
cent trip to Europe We talked the matter
over. His ten-year contract viii he up
next Tuesday. Nothing definite has been
done regarding bis successor and VIII not
be until matters with Arson are satIafac-
torily arranged
who do YOU think would be manager.
Tom Burns2' was asked.
Really do not know, although nobody
would be better than he" was Mr. Spald-
ing's reply.
