Magnate Brush Says Deserters Can
not Return to National League.
VERY IMPORTANT STATEMENT 7
Another Drastic Measure That
Seems to Favor American League.
GENERAL SPORTING NEWS

A special from Cincinnati says that Pres
ident Brush of the Cincinnati club does
not credit the story sent out from Pittsburg
to the effect that the New York club has
received permission from President Drey-
fuss to negotiate for the services of Jimmy
Williams. who jumped from the Pirates to
Baltimore. and now is anxious to get back
to the National League
There is no question In my mind" said
Mr. Brush, that the members of the Ma
tional League will stick to the agreement
they entered into some time ago to Danish
all deserving players from the National
League forever This statement in regard
to Williams evidently emanated from the
brain of some enterprising newspaper
writer. and may even have been inspired
by Williams himself, but that Mr.. Drey-
fuss gave his consent to any negotiations
for Williams services, or that Mr.. Freed
man asked such concession, do not be-
lieve.
Mr.. Freedman was one of the strongest
advocates of the rule adopted in regard to
banishins players, and any one who knows
Mr.. Freedman will at once realize that
such a stand taken by him originally means
that he would not recede from it under any
circumstances. Perhaps reported. there
are some National League players who
went over to the American who want to
get back; perhaps all these men
perfectly satisfied that no inducements
would bring them back. However, no mat
ter how they feel about returning, there is
no room for them in the National League.
The National League has taken action
excluding such players from the ranks of
their teams forever, and this action will
be adhered to. l am sure
In regard to the request of the Boston
club that they be allowed to negotiate with
Jimmy Barrett. who jumped the Reds in
the spring of the year to go with Detroit,
Mr. Brush said that such request was
ceived. and was refused, as the agreement
entered into by the clubs would not allow
of his giving such permission. In other
words. Barrett Is excluded from the Ma
tiona League forever.
