DISoRGANIZED NEW YoRKS.
Evidence That a Pretty Row Is on
Among the Players.

New York, Sept. 4.-When Saturdays
game at the Polo Grounds was at an end
Capt. Joyce called the newspaper men
into the New York Clubs Office and said:
This is Mr.. Jack Doyle, gents, and he's
got something to say
Doyle came forward and, looking rather
confused, remarked:
81 hardly know what to say. I've been
accused of knocking ana of disorganiZ-
ing the New York team. I've also been
charged with heading a clique to do Mr..
Joyce out of the management. I've been
accused of being a disorganizer for sew
eral years, and yet l never in my life
hurt fellow player nor have ever tried
to get the management of any team. /
do not want to be a manager. I've had
experience in that line, and know that my
temperament makes it impossible for me
to control other men. Therefore, l con-
slider it a rank injustice to be charged
with trying to get Joyce or anybody else
off the team Joyce has treated me well
since 1 came back to the New Yorks, and
I've no complaint. 1 do not mind criti-
cism for my misplays on the field but
my critics should remember that I'm
playing shortstop just now, and that I'm
not familiar enough with the position to
cover it perfectly. 1 can catch and play
first base, but other places 1 try to fill
to the best of my ability, although I do
not know the first points as well as the
regular men who fill them. AS / feel
now, I'd like to pack my bag and get
out as quickly as possible!'
Joyce then asked for hearing. With
Dcn'e still present, the New York cap
tan said:
"As far as know there is no clique in
the team. and Doyle has made no trou-
| BILE. DOYLE is my friend and has played
| well enough 10 suit me since he Joined the
| team don't know anything about the
! stories that he helped 10 disorganize other
league teams with which he played, but
| / do know that he has not attempted any
such tactics under me"
| What about the rebellion of Meekin
and Seymour in Pittsburg?" Joyce was
asked.
1.-THE Pittsburg reporters are a lot of
| fakirs." said the New York captain
warmly There was no rebellion. / did
not ask them to pitch and they did not
refuse Doheny volunteered to go in the
| box. so / le. him work. / want it under

nail it,
These statements by Doyle and Joyce
were prompted by the stories sent out
! from Pittsburg Friday night that Meekin
and Seymour refused to pitch when called
upon, and that Doyle Grady and Glea-
son, and Others were in combine to
| throw Pitcher Doheny out of the team
| by supporting him raggedly whenever he
| occupied the box.
In spite of the remarks of Doyle and
Joyce, there is evidence, and plenty of it,

was a close, exciting fight between the

fact that ten Wanderers were left on
bases is sufficient proof. In the third,

great STOP which he turned into double

that the New York players would not be

source of constant annoyance. The clup

Grafton, and the man or set of men who
stands between them and their pleasure
will hear from them in no uncertain Ian
guage. We trust the boys may seriously
consider this matter before they go too
far
Jake Morse, the Boston correspondent
of Sporting Life, has, among other
things, this to say with regard to the
Holmes case: Mr.. Pulliam's idea that
Mr.. Holmes was amply represented be-
fore the board by his manager, Mr.. Han
Ion, is amusing, to say the least In this
case Mr.. Hanlon and Mr.. Holmes were
clearly in accord, but suppose it was a
case in which they were not in accord.
Certainly prisoner has the right of per-
sonal representation if he so desires. If
he of his own accord had requested Mr..
Hanlon TO represent him, that would be
a different matter.
Does Mr.. Morse mean to say that had
Hanlon, at the request of Holmes, en-
tered his appearance to the complaint, or
entered plea of guilty, that then
Holmes was properly before the court,
and that the findings of the board were
proper? If so, he is as far away from
the law as is Pulliam.
The statement that the Pittsburg club
has secured the services of Williams, the
third baseman; Salgie, the outfielder, and
Pitcher Pardee, from the Kansas City
Club, was a little premature. Jimmy
Manning, of the Kansas City team, de-
nies the premises upon which Mr.. Wat
kins's claim TO these men is founded,
and the prospect for a row seems immi-
nent.
