PROFESSIONAL TRAINER HIRED.
Washington Players to Be Looked
After by Joseph Quirk.

The players on the Washington base ball
clubs pay roll this season will assuredly
not suffer from inattention on the part OF
the clubs officials. In addition to sending
them to Charlottesville for the spring prac-
tice. President Noyes this morning COM
pleted arrangements whereby the profess
sional trainer Joseph Quirk will take charge
of the team at once and iron out the sore
muscles. Mr.. Quirk has been handling BIZ
cycle racers for the past two weeks at
Pittsburg. and has quite reputation among
athletic men. Two years ago he had charge
of the Providence team and would have
joined the Washington outfit last spring
but for circumstances over which he had
no control. Catcher Kittredge has been
urging on the club officials the great good
accomplished by professional trainer, and
when he joins the squad this afternoon
Qufrk will assuredly be given hearty re-
ception, as he left for that place this morn
ing.
Arrangements were also completed this
n orning by President Noyes whereby the
George Washington University team will
cross bats with the Washington club at
American League Park April 5. This game
should be good one for the George Wash
ington lads and also afford the local fans"
a chance to look over both teams.

ANOTHER BASE BALL soUABBLE.
Los Angeles Club Trying to Hold Up
First Basemau Chase.

Hal Chase the noted first baseman of
the Los Angeles club, Of the Pacific Coast
League last season, who, Manager Griffith
confidently expected would more than fill
up the gap in the New York Yankee infield
made by the detection Of John CAMEL, was
to have reported at Montgomery, Ala. yes
terday. where the team Is training. He
had wired Mr.. Griffith that he would leave
Los Angeles for Montgomery last Friday.
But instead of Chase materializing, the
following telegram was received from him
by Griffith: II prefer to play with Los
Angeles club instead of in New York Man
ager Morley says I can" When he read
the dispatch Manager Griffith's ire was
aroused to a fighting pitch.
II will see whether there Is any protec-
ton afforded by the national agreement"
he said, and Immediately wired President
Johnson Of the American League, to in
form Chairman Herman of the national
commission of the facts In the case and
have the latter instruct Chase to report to
the New York club al once. If he does not,
however, it means serious clash il not
war between the Class clubs of the
minor leagues and the majo organizations
Manager Moriey's actions in inducing
Chase to refuse to join the New York club
are either part of premeditated plan to
precipitate a conflict over the draft prop
osition of Johnson. which the national
board of the minor leagues refused to ac
cept, or else the Pacific Coast League has
decided to break away from the national
agreement as an individual.
That there is deep laid plot behind this
Chase case is evident. Morley not only
has succeeded in holding Chase on the
coast temporarily. but he also endeavored
to keep Doc Newton there. The latter.
however says he had no more use for
Morley and his methods. and was more
than glad of the opportunity offered him
to get away from him.
Chase was drafted from the Los Angeles
club by Griffith immediately he had the
legal right to do SCI, and that was when
the Pacific Coast Leagues Joined the ma
tional agreement. The player was award
ed to the New York American club by the
national commission and consequently by
all base ball law belongs to that club
There Is little likelihood of clash be-
tween the American and National leagues
over the Chase case, but still there Is a
possibility Of 1t. "a

Dawleys motion sets forth that the indict-
ments recentIv returned against Mrs. Chadwick

procured by duplicity: that the different counts
charge separate and distinct offences, Improperly
Joined; that they were procured by incompetent
testimony: that they were procured declara-

with and that Beckwith Is now dead and the
opportunity will never be presented to cross
question him or verify his statements
