JACK WARNER SOLD
TO ST. LOUIS CLUB.
Released Because Giants Had Too
Many Catchers.

Released Because Giants Had Too
Many Catchers.
Jack Warner will not be a member
of the Giants next season. Instead
he will play for the st. Louis National
League Club.
Word was received by Manager John
McGraw announcing that the st. Louis
management had agreed to the pur-
chase price proposed by McGraw for
Warmers release. Roger Bresnahan
will resume his position as catcher,
alternating with Frank Bowerman.
President John T. Bush said: War
ner's release was sold because the
club had an excess Of catchers--in fact
more than we knew what to do with.
The st. Louis club wanted Warner
and we concluded to sell him. Bower
man and Bresnahan will do the bulk
of our catching, and 1 think will do 1t
we'll"
Brush was asked IL there was any
truth in the report that Warner was
sold because he was held responsible
for attempting TO create dissension
among the players and was not in ac-
cord with the policy of the New York
management.

answered, $50 far as / know he
was sold because we had no use for

Charleston Team Played All Around
the Sons OF Eli.
Charleston, S. c., Dec. 23.-Before
500 spectators, massed on the running
track of the Y. NJ. C. A. gymnasium
the boys from Yale went down before
the local association basketball team.
The game was well played, but the To-
calls, a little heavier and a fraction
taller, outplayed their Connecticut OPP
ponents at every point.
The game opened little rough and
at times reminded one very much of
football. The referee was, however,
very alert, and fouls were promptly
called and the offending teams penal
lied.
The score, 20 to II, showed more
than strength and weight, for the
points were made IA to IL on field
goals and Is to 5 goals from the foul
lines. Two full twenty minute
halves were played, and at the close
the Yale men admitted that they had
been outplayed by the Southerners,
and that the game was fairly and Well
won.
The line up was as follows:
Yale. Charleston.

Barber ..... left forward -. Thomas

Chorus in SaVnnnah's Battle
Hymn.
Harder and harder has been the
work of the Savannah squad for the
last week in preparation for Mondays
game with the Jays.
Last night it seemed that the very
limit Of human endurance had been
reached when Capt. Cope kept calling
on the men for faster and more con-
centrated effort after an hours Cruel
ling work.
Savannah has never put forth team
which has received as much hard, sys-
tematic work. Neither has Savannah
ever produced an eleven as fast and
as finished as to the finer points of
the game. None of the ingenuity
known to the modern coach has been
neglected in bringing the men to the
point of perfection which will be neces-
sary to triumph over the two magnih-
cent teams that will line up here one
week apart.
After last nights practice Capt. Cope
was perhaps the least exhausted of all
the men, and stated he was more than
satisfied with the work of the men.
VIII Play Rapidly.
1t would be foolish now to outline
Savannah's system of play. They will
be mixed up with such rapidly, how
ever, that the opposing Jay outfit
may find itself played off its feet in
the first five minutes. An average of
ten plays to the minute was the way
the men rushed down the field last
night, and fumbling was conspicuous
by its absence.
In the line up on defensive and Of
fensive play there will be some
changes. Harmon will be used at
left half on the offensive and Lans-
berg at right end. On the defensive
Lansberg will be shifted behind the
line and Harmon win take his position
at end. This is done because of the
peculiar qualifications of each of
these brilliant players.
Lansberg is recognized as one of
the strongest defensive players on the
line up, while Harmon's breaking up
of plays is not so good. He tackles
well, but with the same fierce spirit
which characterizes Lansbergs work
in downing the running. In this the
veteran end is without a peer in the
South. Harmon stands out just as
prominently as an advancer of the
ball.
Jays WIN Arrive Tonight.
According to a statement made by
'fBill" Jones yesterday the Jays will
reach Savannah tonight shortly after
IL o'clock. They will make their
headquarters at the Pulaski House and
put in a quiet day of rest tomorrow.
Mr.. Jones said he did not know posi-
lively whether Kirby Smith would
play with the Jacksonville team.
Yesterday Capt. Harry Blum COM
pleted the words to the song which all
rooters are requested to sing Monday.
A band will be engaged to lead the
song. The tin dumb bulls which are
being sold around the city will be
largely in evidence with the rooters,
and there is promise of enough noise
to put a competitive boiler foundry on

cottons now used as substitutes for sea
island cotton, we suggest a convention
in Savannah early in the new year of
all planters for the purpose Of organ
izing and carrying out such programme
as may appear calculated to result in
most good.
I'm suggesting that sea island cot
ton planters organize, let us not be
misunderstood as desiring in the re-
hottest a market fighting organization,
or to otherwise resist the natural laws
OF supply and demand in fixing prices.
Questions Of sufficient Importance In
fixing the value Of this cotton could be
profitably discussed In convention to
many times equal advantages in other
directions.
Paramount among the questions
such convention should consider Is
the use OF fresh seed. which has cost
the planters by neglect In all three
states thousands of dollars in recent
years that would have been saved to
them by the expenditure of few dol
lars more for good seed. No doubt
government experts and prominent sea
island planters could be heard with
great profit on the use Of right seed
from the right place, and the right
place is the sea islands. Other sub
jects equally important are matters OF
detail that VIII be worked out II the
planters desire to convene"
Opinions have been received from
many of the largest growers and inte-
rior buyers OF this class OF cotton, and
they are practically a unit in the be-
lief that such an organization as is
proposed should be formed. as the work
that II would accomplish IL one Of vital
Importance TO the business as a whole.
Local members OF the cotton trade

SEA ISLAND COTTON MEN
MAY HOLD CONVENTION
One Needed to Discuss Matters of Interest to
Business

The suggestion will be made by Mr..
j. A. Nelson of the Cotton Trade Jour
nal in to-day's issue of that publica-
ton, that the sea island cotton plant
ers organize for mutual benefit, and
the further suggestion will be made
that the meeting for this purpose be
held in Savannah in the near future.
The Cotton Trade Journal will say:
THE sea island cotton planters of
South Carolina. Georgia and Florida
have questions of mutual interest to
themselves to discuss yearly that pass
unnoticed since there is no organiza-
ton to bring them together. Efforts
TO plan and adopt better methods in
producing finer staple, fighting the
pests that damage the crop, use of the
right variety of seed, producing a sta
pie best suited to the trade demands.
methods and benefits OF fertilization
and advantageous marketing, are be-
ing studied yearly by planters, but the
good results obtained by individuals is
OF little use TO the industry generally
because this knowledge does not reach
all by wholesome and Intelligent in

the sea island cotton industry TO these

EXPERTS BELIEVE DECISION OF
REFEREE ROACH WAS FAIR
That Britt Was Cleverest Seems to Be the IMAM
imty of Opinion.

San Francisco, Dec. 2S.-Although a
few complaints against the decision
of the referee are heard most fight
followers agree that Britt fairly earn
ed his victory over Nelson.
AS the fight went the limit it had
to be decided on points and there is
no question that Britt landed three
blows for every one Nelson sent home.
In fact, Nelson did not land a dozen
clean hits during the entire contest,
most of his blows were delivered when
they were at short range.
1t is an undeniable fact that Nelson
was not hurt by the blows he received
and was as fresh as a daisy at the
end of the fight, and for this reason
some think Roche should have called
it draw.
The following are the opinions of
some of the leading experts in fsti-
cuffs:
Jack Welch--Roche could give no
other decision. Britt outboxed and out
pointed Nelson in nearly every round.
Eddie Smith-If 1 had been in the

tween Jimmy" Britt and Battling

topic of conversation is: Who will be

challenges were read at the ringside.

protege. Jabez White. If matched the
battle would have an international as

that Britt will agree to give the Eng

ring I would have decided as Roche
did. &c t,4,
Mat Larkin-Bfitt has too much class
for Nelson.
Harry Corbett-The decision looked
all right to me. l must say Nelson
deserves a lot of credit.
Alex Greggians-Britt won on the
clean blows landed.
Eddie Graney-I would have decided
as Roche did.
Marvin Hart-I thought Nelson put
up a grand fight, but the referee de-
cided Britt won, and that is all there
is to it.
Teddy Murphy thought Roche
could have called it draw. Britt
held a great deal and when he was
not holding he ran away. His blows
were of no force.
Nelson is one of the marvels of the
prize ring when 1t comes to standing
up under punishment and showing no
i'll effects from the terrible grueling
to which he is subjected. Barring
slight bruise on the face he show
ed no effects of the hammering he
received. He is cheerful, although he
feels that he was unfairly treated in
the decision.

this city are now busy trying to match
Nelson with Young Corbett," Britt to
meet the winner.
Everyone at the ringside applauded
the grit and stamina of Nelson, and
there were a few who believed that
Referee Roche could have called the
fight draw. All seemed TO agree that
Britt showed the greater c1everness
throughout.
1t was a repetition of the Jeffries-
Sharkey fight" said Referee Roche.
Britt, like Jeffries, did the clever
fighting, hitting Clearly and generally
outpointing his opponent, while Mel
son trusted to mad rushes and his
ability to Withstand punishment"
Neither man showed to-day the ef-
fects Of the terrible gruelling he got.
There was a slight scar on Britt's fore
head. Nelson was unmarked.
Britt's share of the purse amounts
to $S.S77. Nelson's to 1913. The To-
tai receipts were $4,000. The Yose-
