way. Barry's improved form in drawing

Marshall. after the former had good win
ming chances, and Janowski's brilliant and
dashing style against Napier were very in
teresting incidents. Delmar, too, gave

PIRATES WANT REMNANT.
Magnate Dreyfuss Will Give $25, 00t
for Two Pitchers.


A special from Pittsburg says: Two bum
dies Of 81 900 each rest in a Pittsburg bank
for the man who will land two certain
pitchers for Pittsburg. and the clubs who
give up these pitchers can also divide
S25. 900. Pittsburg wants Its fourth PEN
nant.
The pitchers wanted by Dreyfuss are
stars. The name Of Matthewson Of New
burg people. 1t is understood that Pitts
burg will give SIS. 600 for him with a three
year contract.
Among those whom Dreyfuss needs, and
for whom he seems willing to pay $12,5O0
apiece. are Hahn of Cincinnati. Bernhard
of Cleveland. Mullin of Detroit. Young OF
the Boston Americans. Fraser of the Phila-
delphfa Nationals, Waddell of the Athletic,
Weimer of Chicago, McGinnity of New
York and two others whose names have
not been made known.
In addition, Pfttsburg will pay handsome
ly for Chech of st. Paul.
The reason for our poor showing so far
this season is because the men are not In
shape" said Barney Dreyfuss, president OF
the Pittsburg Base Ball Club yesterday.
"And the reason the men are not in shape
is because we had so little good training
weather at Hot Springs and SO little after
we got back and since the season opened.
Where other teams had good weather in
days. Last year we had more good wealth
er than any other team. This year it was
our turn to get bad weather. In the last
ten days we struck rain for a week. But
we are not making excuses, and we are not
asking for or entitled to any sympathy.
We will win the pennant this year just the
same.
