THE RDINOUS POLICY
OF ANDY FREEDMAN
Serious Trouble in the New
York Ball Club.
j. Walter Spalding Tenders His
Resignation as a Director.
The Gotham Mngnate's Scheme to
Teach n Lesson to other
Club Owners.

New York, March 16-There is serious
trouble in the New York ball club. cli-
max was reached yesterday when ]. Walter
Spalding sent his resignation as director to
President Freedman with an explanation OF
his action that will NOT surprise the Ma
tional League men who have been in close
touch with the local baseball situation for
some time past. Upon being pressed the
former director gave out letter to Freed
man. In part it is as follows:
have hesitated about taking this action for
some time, because Of MY desire to be of some
service to the club and 10 the game Of base
bail in the metropolitan district, but / realize
that no director in the New York club has any
influence whatever with you. Referring TO the
conversation j had with you the subject
short time ago on the elevated train you dis
tinctly stated that IL was a matter Of no conse-
quence to you whether the club was successful
not and that if they were not successful you
intended 10 substitute the cheapest class OF play
ers possible. | protested at the time against any
such policy, and could not believe that you were
in earnest; but since that time have heard
from other reliable sources that il is your inten
ton to operate the club upon such an unsports
manlike and ruinous policy.
In explanation Spalding added: The
interview with Freedman on the elevated
train some time ago was enough. l asked
him why he did not strengthen the New
Yorks and he surprised me by saying that
he did not care damn whether the New
York club was successful or not. He fur
thermore said that if the club was not
success he would discharge all Of his play
ers and substitute minor league team.
He also said that he wanted to teach the
other League clubs lesson by killing the
game in this city. Knowing Freedman TO
be man of hasty action and a hot tenn
pefament did not put much faith in these
threats but since that time / have learned
| from other sources that he has made the
same statements to varioGs baseball men.
/ 1t is probable that the League will hold
another meeting here next week. Although
no official notice of such a conference has
been sent out by President Young the
| situation in ST. Louis and other matters
| demand the attention of the magna:es.

BIDS FOR THE BIG FIGHT.
San Francisco Offers $4,000 for the
Fitz-Jeffries Bout.

New York March 16-William A. Brady.
representing Jim Jeffries and Martin Juli-
an, manager of Robert Fitzsimmons, met
yesterday to consider the bids made for the
proposed fight between these pugilists.
AS soon as Brady and Julian read the
so, 900 bid of San Francisco syndicate,
through H. p. Taylor, 1t was taken up.
Julian said that if any person Connected with
the National Sporting Club of San Fran
cisco. was connected with the new syn
dicate he would not accept any proposals
from that body. In fact he said he would
rather have the bout take place in the
East, as their experience in California in
the fighting line was not agreeable 10 HIM
self OF Fitzsimmons.
Brady then asked Mr.. Taylor what he
was prepared TO concede for picture privi-
leges, and the Western representative re-
piled that the purse was large enough to
cover all that. Brady objected, and so did
Julian. Both claimed that the picture
privileges would prove to be a large factor
in the matter and that no club offer would
be considered unless the participants in
the bout should receive percentage of the
profits arising from the reproduction OF
pictures of the fight. Brady said
'lll give a sum equivalent 10 IS per cent
Vi JHt net ItCtlpis Cl the HSul iOT llS
privilege of taking and reproducing pic
lures"
Mr. Taylor then asked for time TO COM
municate with the San Francisco people
whom he represented. so that ne could find
out what terms il could offer.
W. B. Gray, representing the Westches-
ter Club, offered purse of s21 ,O00 but
would not concede any privileges TO the
fighters, claiming that the purse was in
itself sufficient. His offer was tabled quick
ly.
Then came the Coney Island Clubs rep
resentatiye, John p. Dunn. He said the
club was willing TO put UP purse of $40
600 and also. so far as he knew to divide
the proceeds of the picture privileges
equally between the two contestants and
| the club. He also requested twenty four
hours time TO enable him 10 communicate
with the management of his club 1t was
| finally agreed to give all parties twenty
four hours to make final offers There
will be another meeting at O'Clock this
afternoon. when 1t is thought final settle
| ment will be arranged.
