Evils of Advance Money.

Evils OF Advance Money.
OF all the evils that have crept into
baseball is the one Of advancing money
TO players on their services for the next
season This Is the main reason that
there are so many contract jumpers in
the profession today and why ball play
ers as class are looked upon as dis
honest individuals. In the baseball col
urnns Of every paper published in the
country you will sec IL published daily
that Jack Jones. Tom Smith. or some
other player has jumped his contract
with the Showdown club to play with
another club of some other league. and
that he had drawn so much advance
money from the local club.
II no advance money had been given
to the player it is most probable that
he would never be guilty Of contract
jumping. In no other business but base
ball Is money ever advanced 10 pros
pective players. Horse owners never
advance money TO their jockeys or train
crs; such a thing as advancing money
10 them would not for an instant be
tolerated on the turf
Advance money is the bane OF the life
OF n baseball manager There are but
few players now before the public who
would even think Of doing business with
a manager Inless they knew just how
much advance they could get. II the
amount offered suits them they will
sign. not otherwise. Most OF the play
ers. as soon as they get the advance. e
Immediately proceed 10 spend IL in
riotous living. doing harm to themselves
by their conduct, and being IN no con-
dition 10 render good services TO their
employers. Some OF them, as soon as
they get the advance, proceed 20 look up
another easy mark OF a manager that
they can bunco out OF more money, and
they succeed in a great many instances.
When the time for reporting comes
it is found that the player has signed
more contracts than one. and has got
ten money from each OF the club manage
ers. Then comes a row as TO which
club is TO get the player. II il is a minor
league player the board OF arbitration
OF the Association OF Minor Leagues
takes up the case, deciding where the
player shall go.
CT course. this takes time and ex-
pense. as both clubs try to prove their
secures the player gets back the money
advanced. agreeing 10 pax the other
club the money that they paid the play
er which is to be taken out OF the
players salary when earned. Often the
player balks on these terms and puts
up a strenuous fight about not paying
the money; by refusing 70 play ball at
all. threatening to retire. II fhe player
happens 10 be q drawing card this has
the desired effect. and the club owners
pay the amount and stand the "bunco. "
