WIN Injure Roses Standing.

Ann Arbor, Mich, Jan. 1.-The ath-
letic career of Ralph Rose, Michigan
phenomenal weight man, is probably
near its close.
BY participating in the Madison
Square garden games he has laid him
self open to a. charge of violation of
an important provision in the west
ern conference rules, and in all prob
ability he will never compete again
in western college athletics.
In an Interview with Prof. Albert
H. Pattingil and Prof. Y, H. Lane,
prominent members of the athletic
board of control of Ann Arbor, as
we'll as of the eligibility committee, it
was stated that if Rose had taken
part in the games at Madison Square
garden under the auspices of the
Pastine Athletic club, as reported, he
did so under no sanction and without
the knowledge of the proper authori-
ties at Michigan.
He had, in fact. asked for this per-
mission and it had been refused. His
action, therefore. is in direct violation
of rule 10 of the conference rules,
which provides that no athlete shall
participate in any meets other than
those of his own institution unless he
does so with the permission of the
athletic board of control. This Rose
did not have.

Topeka Baseball Prospects Are
Not Good.
Only Two New Men Have Been
Signed.
THEY ARE AMATEURS.
Little Prospect That Either
viii Make Good.
Management BaIks at Salaries
Asked by Players.
THEY ARE AMATEURS.

The Topeka Baseball association is in
just as bad shape so far as the signing
of players is concerned for next season,
as it was when the final inning of 1904
was played on the 18th day of last Sep
TENDER. Nothing has been done, -
practically sums up the situation.
Just two men have been signed, but
the mana cement itself admits that
they will stand just about one chance
in one hundred to make good. They are
Harry Landes, a catcher, whose identi-
ty neither of the Logan-Sheard combi-
nation Will reveal, and Charley Farrell,
another amateur, who has played in the
outf1eld for some of the forgotten little
Kansas towns.
Abbott, Olson, Brown, Cole, and
Bevis, were retained from last year
from the regulars. Carter, Hughes and
HOWE have been re-engaged to do slab
duty. Negotiations are Ebn to bring
Bert Dunn back to play second base.
The management offered him 800 a
month. He wants an '.X'' tackled on
that amount.
And that just about tells the story
Roseate promises Were1 made to the
fans when the season closed last year
Topeka's colors in 1905 The rosetint
which hung about the promise is turn
ing a muddy gray.
1t cannot be denied that Mr.. Sheard
players. They have written letters, and
done similar things. Neither has gone
out on the road and dragged in the
kind of men this town wants for next
year. They have chosen the postage
stamp route and it has Melted nothing
Today they adopted a new method.
They inserted an advertisement in the
Sporting News for a good, experienced,
seasoned catcher. And that is about. all
that is in sight to handle the big unit
for next season.
They have given up hopes of getting
Yaller' Jones, last year with EHIt
Scott, to play short. He went 10 =. -
RE with the sale of the franchise 1t
was planned to let Olson play second
back to short, and with little doubt,
Dunn will again grace the middle saw
dust sack. There was some thought of
getting Mig Perrine, in 1904 with
Sprin gfeld, to play either second base
or shortstop. The wonder working lit
tie Midget played with the Kansas City
BloOz IN their post-season trip. Arthur
Irwin thought that Mig ought 10 have
another minor league year. This infor-
The latter handed the tradition to
Sheard and Logan. They wrote Irwin.
This morning a letter scarne from the
latter I'm giving Mig $500 per month.
Wtu you pay him that ard a small
consideration for his release 2'' was the
content. Neither Sheard or Logan have
recovered. They are trying as hard a s
possible to forget Perrine and Irwin.
Logan wakened for a minute from his
sWoon and wondered if the indonlitable
Arthur was only joking
There is a vacant chair" out IN the
left field. Johnny Kane set the springs
of hope to bubbling in Topeka's breast
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1905-01-04

by insinuating that he would like a
berth here Mr.. Sheard offered him
pocket money in the shape of 800 per
month. The letter was sent to the red
woods in California where Pirate Kane
is irnbibing salt air and FIR balsaIn.
Johnny never answered. The price was
evidently not worthy of his notice.
And there you are, just as if you
We're riding on a merry go-round. LO-
gan and Sheard are right back at the
starting place without a single good
thing located for next year. Mr..
Sheard has been repeatedly asked for a
statement as to what he will do, and
each time he has put off answering
with Don't Worry Club remark. He
now has evidently dropped membership
in that aggregation and is getting a
little anxious. The lad in the Sport
ing News emphasizes that much. Sec
rotary Logan made an offer of a So
bonus the other day for a good catcher
for whom he is willing to pay a salary
of $125 per month.
The thing for Sheard, Logan & Co.,
Ltd, to do, is to offer good prices and
they will get good players. The other
towns in the circuit are doing. Last
year three of the first division teams
were paying over $1,000 a month, and
one was accused of raising it to $1,700.
There is such good evidence for the lat
ter, that it is hard to doubt the asser-
ton.
