Rumor, Colonel John I. Rogers will dis
pose of his holdings in the Philadelphia
National League club and retire per-
manently from baseball This same
dame further says that William J.
Shettsline will be relieved of the active
management of the team to take the

intimate with Colonel Rogers will
scarcely place any great amount OF
credence in the report, although it must
be admitted that the Philadelphia mag

a road of roses. and one could hardly
blame him for retiring from the hard
knocks of public criticism to the peace
