Burkett-Freeman Trade.

The only deal for players made at the
American League meeting in Chicago was
one by which st. Louis lets Jesse Burkett
go to Boston for Buck Freeman. Burkett
could not get along with the ST. Louis
management and wanted to get away. He
has not had his heart in his work, but
says he will take new lease on life
under Jimmy Collins, in which event he
will be an undoubted Improvement over
Freeman. Burkett Joined the National
League in 1890 as a member of the New
Yorks. He was a left-handed pitcher who
had made sensational record at Worces-
ter, Mass. Jim Mutrie soon put him in
right field because Of his natural batting
ability. which has chung to him ever
since.
But it was not until New York released
him to the Clevelands that Burkett got
into his real stride. He led the National
League in batting on several occasions,
and has since held his own with the big
hitters in the American. He is one Of the
best hunters in the profession and a fast
runner. Freemans speciality has always
been home runs, for he generally knocks
out more of these than any other player
during the season. The only other deal
talked of at the recent meeting was one
proposed by Connie Mack of Philadelphia
to exchange Lave Cross, Monte Cross and
Topsy Hartsel to Cleveland for Flick and
Bradley. But the Cleveland manager,
Napoleon Lajoie, could not see it.

Manager Mack Favors Present Rules

HAS LITTLE NEW s

Mr.. Benjamin 8. Minor attorney-at-law
and representa-, of the Washington base
ball club, returned to Washington last night
from Chicago, where he had been in attend
ance at the annual meeting of the American
League. When seen this morning by Star
reporter Mr.. Minor had nothing to say in
the way of news that would interest the
Washington bar ball enthusiasts.
He said the meeting was entirely har-
monious and as representative Of the local
stockholders Of the Washington club he
was especially pleased over the interest
manifested in the senatorial organization by
every magnate in the American League. In
fact, the Washington cub was the principal
topic of discussion at the meeting, as the
unsettled state of affairs nere is about the
only thorn in the side of the American
League.
Several of the specials sent out of Chi
cago during the meeting were fakes of the
rawest sort, especially the one relating to
changing the Washington club to Provi-
dence. Such move was never discussed
at the meeting in the smallest detail. as
the American League as body has the
greatest faith in Washington base ball
proposition and believes with any sort of
good management a team here will turn out
winner, both on the field and through
the box office.
Mr.. Minor was told in the most emphatic
terms that no stars on the senatorial roster
will be sold, and the transfers of certain
Washington players In exchange for others
Is believed to be for the good of the team.
First Baseman Stahl, Shortstop Cassidy and
Pitcher Patten will remain with the Sena-
tors, and from all reports heard at the
league meeting by Mr.. Minor. the new men
secured from the Western League for the
outfield good players and should
strengthen the team.
AS to who will manage the team next sea-
son, nothing yet has been decided upon. Mr.
Donovan's salary was princely one last
season. and a cheaper man may be obtain
ed. There are several applicants for the
position. but nothing along this line will be
done until the financial tangle is straighten-
ed out.
1t is more than probable that a meeting
of the local stockholders will be called for
an early day and definite steps decided upon
for the future reorganization of the club.
There several wealthy gentlemen in
Washington who stand ready to put big
money into the club, but they will not carry
the dead wood in the shape of small stock
holders who have refused to meet the small
assessment recently decided upon.

the Country Clubs Grand Annual run at
Brookltne. together with other important
cross-country events. In all Mr.. Hitchcock's
stable of jumpers won a total of 500, 165,
placing him far ahead of all other owners
who took part In this branch of the turf.
