St. Louis MaSnate Early Mt Work
FOrestailfng the New League.
From the st. Louis Republic
If the new American Association of Base
Ball Clubs, which is to enter the field in
competition with the National League,
wants to get any of the latter's star players
it had better hurry up. The National
stars for next season. Cy Young, the star
pitcher of the country. signed a st. Louis
contract yesterday. George Cuppy, who
has been playing second star to Young of
late, Is also tied I'D for next year. He
signed with his side partner.
Jack Powell will probably sign tomorrow.
Burkett and O'Connor have also been ap-
preached to sign, and as handsome induce
ments are being hung out to these stars,
they will probably do so without waiting
for the new league to see them; that is,
unless that organization hurrieS up and
gets its money out.
Sehreckengost refused to sign at the sal
airy offered him, though he was tempted
with a substantial increase. Donlin, Held
to call on President Robson after yester-
days game. They did SO. but Mr.. Robson
had to catch a train. and asked the players
to call again on Wednesday, when he will
return to st. Louis.
The hurry to sign players must be attrib-
inroads the new league. which is yet only
shadowy, might make on the National
League clubs 1t has not been usual to sign
players at this early date such business

the old organization to be in hurry.
Competition is the life of trade.
1t is said that Young got fancy salary
He ought to. He is the greatest PLAYER in
the game. Then. the moral effect his sign
Ing will have on younger players will be
great. Young stands high In the estima-
ton of his fellows as an honorable wise
man. whose business judgment is excellent
and conservative.
President Robson admitted that he had
signed some players, but pooh-hooed the
idea of fear of the new league being in
centive thereto.
I'VE are situated differently from what
We We're in Cleveland he said. Then we
had the players with us all the time Now
we have not. l did not think of signing
men today until l went to the park, and
then thought it would save me time and
future trouble to do SO. / signed nv old
men, Young and Cuppy. in a minute
1t Is also stated that the men who signed
were offered good share of their next
years salary in advance.
The old adage of competition being tho
life OF trade Is here exemplified. The play-
ers owe even the embryotic new league a
debt of gratitude in this case
Having contract with the players
strengthens the National LEAGUE If the
ST Louis club had no contract with. Young
he would be legally free to sign where he
pleased next year. As it is. the courts
would probably enjoin him from playing
with any other club II he desired to do So
While the National League clubs reserve
