Jeffrie's Bad Knee Delays Scrap Until

After his exercising at Hardin Springs,

MAGNATE DREYFUSs SORE.
Old Friends Blocking Deals
Strengthen the Pirates.

special from Pittsburg says that there
Is serious trouble brewing between Pitts
burg and the rest of the National League
The other magnates do not like Pitssburg' s
dealings with the American League In the
matter of players. but Dreyfuss does not
care what is liked by his former alleged
friends. and has told them very plainly that
he will do just he pleases, and II the
National League does not like it 1t can
lump the balance. Time was when Dreyfuss
would not deal with the American League
in any way, but the knowledge has been
forced on him that those whom he befriend-
ed in the National League have this year
given him the hooks, and he has announced
that he will take care of himself. He has
tired of being cats paw for the National
The fact is evident that every other team
in the National League is doing its best to
prevent Dreyfuss from winning his fourth
straight pennant Sell no players to Pitts
budg' has been the cry of every magnate
in the National League. There have been
deals proposed and offers made by Drey-
fuss to club owners who have men of whom
they wish to be shed, but the fear that
Pittsburg would be strengthened has made
the club owners stand alOof. There are
good pitchers in the National League for
sale, and Pittsburg will pay big money for
them, but they cannot be bought by Drey-
fuss, for Pittsburg cannot be allowed to
strengthen If 1t is possible to keep her
down.
This move against Pittsburg began be-
fore the season was opened when certain
club in the National League was approach
ed by Dreyfuss. who had trade in view.
The trade would have made Pittsburg very
formidable, but the other league magnates
announced plainly that they would not con-
sent to the deal whereby a fast man should
come to Pittsburg. Then 1t was that Drey-
fuss declared himself. and said he would
go to the American League for his men
and would win that pennant If he had to
buy the entire American League to do So
1t is with feelings of alarm that the Ma
tional League magnates now see Dreyfuss
hobnObbing with the different American
League magnates. Dreyfuss has announced
that he will buy any player he needs from
the American League, If he can. He has
already purchased Wyatt Lee from WASH
ington and Patsey Flaherty from Chicago
Lee was frost and has since been re-
leased.
1t has come out that Dreyfuss was euchred
out of Jack Taylor last winter, when
Chicago announced that he would be let
go. Pittsburg wanted Taylor and wanted
him badly. and though she got in first with
her bid of not only cash, but a certain play
er and cash, she was not considered and
the man sent to St. Louis. By this
time Dreyfuss smelled a mouse and after he
had tried for one or two other players and
found himself blocked openly announced
that he would decker with the American
League people for anything he wanted.

Large Entry for the 5OO-Mile Race.

The fina! meeting of the National Con-

senting the nine largest clubs in Baltimore
and Washington, 167 of them being entered

largest number OF birds ever entered in

acted in the capacity of official liberator,
and is well acquainted with its arduous du-
ties. The Baltimore birds will be expressed
to Augusta, Ga. and both shipments will
be ordered liberated on the same day and
time upon advice of the weather bureau in
this city.
A feature which creates more than usual
interest is the races of the Metropolitan
and Quaker City concourse race taking
place on the same day, thus constituting
a competition of the cream of New
York, Brooklyn. Staten Island New
ark Jersey City. Paterson. Philadei-

AS soon as the birds are liberated each
competitor will be notified and committee

committee from Washington go to Balti-
more to verify the time of arrivals. after
which the committee will figure the speeds
and make its report.
Never since the organization of the
Washington federation has there been such
a successful season as the present one. The
losses have been very few, one record has
been broken and eight lofts have now a
better average speed in the four races flown
than the best previous record. In not a
single instance have the birds encountered
unfavorable weather. and it will cause no
surprise among local enthusiasts TO see
twenty-five or more birds return on the
day of liberation unless disappointed by
the weather.
