Freedman Loose Again.


True to his dog-in-th manager repu-
tation Andrew Freedman, the New
ork- baseball magnate, who has never
overlooked an opportunity to injure the
standing of the national game, has,
through his agents John T. Brush,
started move that promises to spoil
completely all the good work accom-
plished by the more fair-minded and
conservative leaders of the baseball
world
Last Sunday the long and bitter war
between the National and American
leagues was reported ended. The peace
commissioners at the end of their con-
ference announced to the world that
peace had been decided upon.sSg- s
The announcement surprised the
baseball PUBLIC, for they had heard the
notice served by the New York club
relative to any attempt@to take Dele
shantY from the ranks of the Giants and
when they read in. the official report
that peace had been agreed upon and
saw Delehanty's name in the list Of
players assigned to the Washington
club all believed that Freedman had
reformed.
They were mistaken.
Freedman, and Brush, too, had a
chance to bury past career soreiy in
need of burial, but the man who was
small enough to resent criticism by
4UCk1uS his bail PARK gales against q
newspaper man could not or would not
arise to the occasion, and, still the
petty crouch, has pulled Brush into
line and started trouble.
Freedman allowed the world to be-
lieVe that he had retired from baseball
when John t. Brush assumed the lead
ership of the@NeW York club.ssbut this
attempt to save a few things for. the
Giants at the expense of peace has
Freedman written all over it.
Freedman, though out of the game,
declared when he heard of the peace
terms that the New York club had been
insulted, andsbroadly limited that some
thing might be thrown in the way Of
the parade of reunited club owners.
Now Brush has secured an injunction
restraining, President Pulliam from rat
flying the peace agreement.
The attitude of the New York men,
ton of narrow minded, bull-headed
meanness. Rather#than give up one
ball player the preeseus pair would
compel the continuation of a strife that
is bound to wreck something or some
body if allowed to work out to it's own
end. esAta 81
Delehanty is the only thing the New
York National club can save if tits
successful in spelling the peace plans.
Freedman and Brush object to being a
party to any agreement to recognize
the right of the American league to put
team in New York; but, peace or no

FITZPATRICK NOT

Wisconsin Football Manager
Explains Minneapolis
Visit.

Charles j. fitzpatrick, the athletic man
Ager of the University of Wisconsin, is in
Minneapolis on mysterious mission. 1t
is stated in well informed quarters that
fitzpatrick has succeeded in persuading
several likely Minneapolis men who have
been counted on as Minnesota football
material. to cast in their fortunes with
the Wisconsin institution.
Since Fitzpatrick came to town there
nave been very few or his moves unob-
served. The Minnesota managers are
none too well impressed with the inten-
lions or methods Of the Wisconsin man
ayers. There is some football material
up here that looks good to the latter, and
with some of this material there has been
more or less prolonged dickering Nobody
knows just what success Fitzpatrick has
had and he will not tell
I'm. fact said the Wisconsin man this
morning, Il am ready to admit that I
am out looking for men, but there is no
gust1hcat1on for the belief that I want
Minnesota men. On the contrary, we
think we have some mighty good men in
Wisconsin. My prosecuting has been car
rled on in the vicinity of La Crosse and
other Wisconsin towns of that locality.
Everything is perfectly open and above
board. We don't need to go outside the
state for all the men we want"
1T has been suggested that you were
some time ago asked to consider coming
here to take DR.. Williams placer
We'll, that is not true. In the first
place Minnesota would not want a Wis
consin man. The sentiment between
these colleges is not such that a Wiscon-
sin man could be persona grata, you I'M
derstand? Moreover, I have a contract
with Wisconsin which would preclude my
accepting such an offer If 1t were made.
But, speaking of Minnesota material,
while I am not looking for any Of it in
mine, will say that with such a team as
you had last year you ought to have
wiped the earth with everything Won met
There was a fine lot of stuff on that
team.
MY visit here is purely an affair of
half day off. I was in the vicinity and
SO thought I would run over for Sunday.
IT is one Of the misfortunes of Athletic
associations that a man cannot do the
most innocent things without being sus-
sure you I'm as innocuous as the revised
football rules. There isn't trace of

poses, in which all would find repre-

written his name indelibly upon the

seasonably proclaimed that the colo

the imposition of the aorn tax in Eng
land because he regarded England's
new policy as a measure Of protection,
and considered that by its adoption the
field would be clearer for the establish

DUBLIN, Jan. AT the recent
meeting Of that most Irish of Irish in
situations, the (Trinity) College Histor-
ical society, some interesting state
ments as to the standing of Irish
jurists, scholars and statesmen on the
imperial federation scheme were venti-
lated.
The premier speech of the evening
was made by the auditor, James An
drews, B. A. In it he said: IF our
complex and widely divided empire is
to be held together it is essential, as
Mr.. Patchett Martin said, that the
dwellers at it's periphery shall be under
no disabilities as compared with their
fellow subjects at its center. There
never was a moment in our empires
history when the vision of imperial
federation seemed more surely to be
clothing itself with the garments Of
reality. The time is propitious for a
movement to federate the empire. The
motion, once centrifugal, has now be-
come centripetal. The intercolonial
federal movement, which has recently
witnessed the birth of the great Aus
tralian commonwealth, is a step to-
wards rather than step away from
imperial unity, for we can deal with
colonies in three or four groups where
it would be impossible to treat with
them individually. The first steps,
however, towards the federation of the
empire must be pernissiYe. Compul-
sion would only excite hostile feelings.
The absence at first. of one or two
members from the family circle should
be regarded as in no wise more fatal
to imperial federation than the refusal
Of New Zealand to confederate with
Australia has been to the formation of
the Australian commonwealth.
Imperial federation is the means by
which it is proposed to replace the
silken tie by the rigid iron bar. 1t is
an endeavor to accomplish on a far
grander scale for the British empire a
federal union similar to that which at
present binds together into one great
nation the United States of America.
Looking at the question in it's broadcast
aspect, it is surely necessary, if the
scattered members of the empire are
to find one real national life in inn

This proposed peace agreement
would, If ratified, protect the National
league from future raids, would pro-
tect their territory not already marked
by the American league, and reduce
competition in the two club towns by
compelling on-cOnf1icting schedule.
All this, and against all this Freed

Why Champions Fail
The announcement that Young Cor
bett and Austin Rice fought for eigh-
teen rounds at Hot Springs compels
the growing belief that there would be
more successful matches between the
champions in the different classes of
the light game If the pug leaders did
not appreciate the value of space given
them in the newspapers.
Terry McGovern and Young COrbett
travelled all over the East in search OF
a spot where fight could be pulled off
without arouSlng some governor or
other state official to action. They
C1uDS W4illIS 10 OlLGE purses ana
signed articles, but always to the same
end. The proposed fight was stopped
after the papers had reported in detail
the movements of the pugs, their hopes,
fears and future plans
Young COrbett and Austin Rice were
permitted to go through with their bout
at Hot Springs, and yet Terry McGov-
ern and the featherweight champion
could not and claim they cannot find a
place for a fight.
1t is the same thing in the other
classes. The champions always appear
able to carry through their fights with
second-raters and dubs, but invariably
discover some hitch when matched to
meet a fighter who looks able to out
the name Of a new champion on the
tablets.
This is because almost every cham
pion is using his title to make good his
collection of easy money from the ones
willing to pay for a chance to see the
man who licked some former cham
piOn.
Defeated by a new conner this graft
would be gone forever. Arranging
matches with championship timber is
sure, If properly advertised, to hold the
interest of the ones holding the easy
money. Having the matches spoiled
at the last moment enables them to
continue the collection without dan
ger.
