Today they expect to be reinforced by
delegates from Washington. Detroit, st.

In answer 10 queries the delegates ad-
mitted that they had been asked To get
together In circuit that would kill of
Ban Johnson's American League. but
when they read the story to the effect
that the National League men at Sc
cret meeting last week had discussed the
re-estabishment of the l2- club circuit
they were sorely puzzled.
As the situation stands the association
men expect no financial assistance from
the National League, but have merely re-
ceived assurance that they will be allow
ed TO live.
One year ago these same individuals,
barring Irwin and Watkins. attempted 10
organize, but were blocked because OF
lack OF funds.
But all OF them asserted last night that
they now had plenty of money and would
go ahead.
Watkins and Pulliam had the associa-

These men have nothing but money and
will organize a great circut. When they
get things underway they'll show the
American League several tricks. They
will have the moral support OF the Ma
uonal League and will also have the use
OF oany good players. Details will be
given out Friday"
When asked II he had any faith I'm the

was quite sure that no would receive ofri-
cial consent to run club In Boston. de-
