Ebbtts of the Brooklyn base ball team, has
declared that, in his opinion, all men af-
fliated with the American League move

trouble with the players. and 1 don't think
we are going to have any, says Jim Hart
of Chicago "All this talk about the union
going over to the American League unless
we recognize them is all foolishness. Ev-
erybody knows that the average ball player
is broke the last Of the winter and he Is
not going to refuse to accept little ad-
vance money to keep him going until he
can earn enough to keep him.

National League camp yesterday. Short

American League, a great fielder and base
runner, but poor hitter, played with Mil

for the coming season. Mack has resigned
the man, and now exhibits his prize with
keenest jubilation. Conroy was afraid that
he would not get fair shake against such
fielders as Tommy Corcoran, and SO was
glad to let the Cincinnati offer pass him.
