LOUISVILLE. KY, Dec s-The an
nouncement that President Dreyfus had
made some sort of deal with the Pitts
burg management caused no surprise in
local baseball circles. 1t Is not believed
here, however, that he has SOIL the best
players of the team for So, 900, or any
other sum. For weeks, while avowedly
anxious to dispose of the club 20 the best
advantage because Of the obstacles in
the way OF proftably maintaining a team
here, he has repeatedly said that he
would dispose of the team as a whole or
not at all; that to sell the best players
would ruin the team and make the re-
mainder valueless. 1t Is believed the deal
with Pittsburg is as reported from here
several days ago-a syndicate arrange
ment whereby Pittsburg will be strength
ened from Louisville, both teams remain
ing in the league, and Dreyfus and his
associates having a considerable interest
