Both Cincinnati ana Washington
Are After Him.
Galveston, Texas. July ia telegram
from Cincinnati was received here
last night from one of the own
ers OF the Cincinnati National league
baseball club inauirlng as to the
record of Houtz and his general capabli-
ties as baseball player. The reply was
strong enough to warrant the Cincinnati
club In giving Houtz a trial
There are few more promising players
than Houtz. He is a terrific batter. a
great base runner and fine fielder While
he has not had world of experience, 1t
will not take him long, coached by such
a man as Buck" Ewing. to develop. He
has good habits, loves the game, has not
a lazy bone in his body and is naturally a
great ball player.
There is one player on the Cincinnati
team who formerly played here. That is
Steinfeldt. He is one Of the most useful
and popular players of the team.
With Steinfeldt and Houtz on the Gin
cinnati team and Sparger with st. Louis
Galveston will be pretty we'll represented
in the National league.
George Dermody says that the Washing
ton club OF the National leagle had also
made inquiries about Houtz.
