That Made Milwaukee Famous.

peace commission, composed of Hanlon,
Hart and Johnson, entered into
merely a verbal agreement with the
Pacific Coast league is refuted by
the San Francisco telegram. 1t
would be interesting to know what
stand Secretary Farrell would take in
explaining his communication to Presi-
dent Bert, informing that gentleman
of the acceptation by the national board
of the request of the Pacific Coast
league for a special drafting period,
AS stated before, the desire for a spe-
cial drafting season was prompted by
the knowledge that If player was
signed up by major league club in
October he would naturally relax his
efforts and not endeavor to do his best
work when he was certain of having
a place open in fast company the next
season.
This year Of all years the American
league, under the leadership of Ban
Johnson, who was a pirate himself fiVe
years ago. determines to break down
the growing influence of the minors
and refuses to pay the slightest atten-
ton to their wishes or desires as pro-
posed by their representatives The
National league acquiesced in the new
proposals. but johnson refuses to con-
slider them. 1t is not the money in the
new drafting rule, not by a jugful, for
the Johnsonites would willingly pay a
much larger sum for a player they
wanted. 1t is not the elevation of two
of the leagues to a new class that wor-
ries Byron Bancroft. 1t is the fact that
the minors are sticking together, and
his interest is in crushing them. He
wants to array the bush leagues against
the more important members of the
minor organizations, and thus cause
disruption. Then the nice old rule of
protection" may be established ard
club will be rated according to what
it is willing to pay and get whatever
the big leagues are willing to let ii
have.

NEW PITCHER SECURED
FOR LOS ANGELES CLUB

Los Angeles will have new man
upon it's pitching staff this season.
Manager Morley has completed nego-
tiations with L. Tate Cromley, crack
eastern college pitcher and former
twirler of the Indianapolis team of the
American association. Cromley first
came into prominence when pitching
for the Georgetown university nine last
season. According to reports he shut
out Harvard, Yale and Princeton dur
ing the eastern collegiate season. This
fine work against the big colleges of
the east brought him an offer from
the indianapolis management and he
entered professional ball, finishing the
year with indianapolis.
Cromleys record while with Indiana
polls was more than fairly good. He
played iifty-hve games and was at
the bat 1856 times, scoring twenty-one
runs and made forty-six base hits and
two home runs, finishing the season
with a percentage of .294.
While with indianapolis Cromley Off
games. He gave forty-two men bases
Ga balls and struckout ninety-seven
aspiring willow welders. Cromley had
a losing team behind him at all periods
OF the season, Indianapolis finishing
sixth in the race for the pennant
there being eight clubs in the associa-
ton. But two wild pitches were tab
bed up against Morley's future slab
operator in the thirty-one games in
which he manufactured the twirlers;
ample proof that he has more than or
dinarily good control
Cromley was sold to Detroit for the
season Of 1905, but in letter to Nor
ley he declares that conditions were
not satisfactory" and he would great
ly prefer to pursue the sphere on the
coast. The manager Of the Los Ange-
les team thinks that Cromley's record
promises great things and he has ac-
cordingly sent along transportation to
the eastern aspirant.

Meadowhorn made up a world of
ground. But for interference in the
stretch would have been third.
Merces does not like the distance.
She showed it by quitting after go
ing three-quarters. Watch this one in
a six-furlong race.
Orchan was the supposed good thing
in the fourth race, and was backed
from 8 to to l. He was away out of
his stride, and after running prominent
to the head of the stretch the weight
told on him.
Gorgalete was backed from 10 to 4
to 1. The best she could do was to
place.
Col. Rupert, after almost being
backed off the boards, won the fifth
race, after mild drive.
Americana looked all over the win
ner at the head of the stretch, but
quit to nothing. Had to be driven the
limit to stall off Azelina, who was COM
ing very fast.

my flly will run in ;5912 if neces-
sary." said Green Morris the other day
with reference to Gold Rose, who was
pitted against Lucy Young and From
tenac, two of the best sprinters seen
at New Orleans this winter. in the five-
furlong dash for three-year-olds and
upward.
Mr.. Morris did not overestmate the
ability of the Gold Crest filly, for she
won in ;59 AS and was only breezing
the last sixteenth. Lucy Young out
broke the other and set terrific pace,
stepping the first quarter in better
than twenty-three seconds and the
three-eights in ;S5 fiat. That gave her
lead Of eight lengths when she turned
out of the back stretch, and caused her
hackers to let out an exultant cheer.
Their joy was premature, however, for
when jenkins called on Gold Rose at
the three-eighths pole she closed fast
on the flying leader, caught her down
about the eighth pole and, racing her
into subsection, came away in the last
sixteenth and won easily by three
lengths.

TRACK NOTES

Ben Lear fattered his hackers until
well into the stretch, where the early
effort told on him. and he had to sue
cumb to Durbar. who was the best.
Throw out bod Anderson's effort, as
she can do better. w. Smith is not
strong enough TO handle her.
Miss Provo showed little early
speed. Tab this one. and when placed
where she belongs will win.
Or. Hollis at the false odds of l6 to
s. won the second race in hard drive.
Father Catoham beat the barrier, but
was shut out on the turn. But for
this would have made things interest
ing for the winner.

The all-important question as to
whether the desire of the managers
and president of the Pacific Coast Base.
ball league for a special drafting period
received official recognition from the
national board, or, in other words, the
two major leagues, is apparently proved
in the affirmative by the foregoing dis
patch received from San Francisco by
The Herald during the height of the
draft discussion last September.
1t is conclusive evidence that the con-
tentions of the Los Angeles club in re-
gard to Newton and Chase are based
upon legitimate grounds, and that the
special provision for the Pacific Coast
league in the drafting of players was
sustained and affirmed by the National
and American leagues.
Chase and Newton were drafted
by the New York Americans in
direct violation of the agreement en-
tered into between Secretary Farrell In
behalf of the majors and President
Bert. Johnson has gone on record as
refusing to consider this phase of the
case, and dictatorially demands that
Chase be hurried forthwith to the
Montgomery training camp of Clarke
Griffith.
The indications are that the reports
that at the Informal conference of
prominent minor league men at At
lanta, Ga, 1t had been decided to aban-
don organized" baseball at once were
trihe premature.
Manager Morley drew up pro-
visional contract Monday night with
Chase, binding that young player
to the Los Angeles team for another
season, with the understanding that
the minors had finally reached the de-
termination to begin offensive warfare
against the American league. All Of
the class A clubs throughout the coun-
try were believed to sanction immedi-
ate action. Nothing definite, however.
