SEVERAL DEALS
ARE PENDING
BAN JOHNSON HINTS AT EFFORTS
TO STRENGTHEN THE NATIONALS

President Ban Johnson of the American
League arrived in Washington yesterday at
noon and interested spectator at
the game between the Nationals and De-
troits. Last evening at the New Willard
Mr.. Johnson held something of a recep-
ton, the officials of the local club and sew
eral reporters keeping him busy for a cou-
pie of hours asking him questions about
the American League and the Washington
club.
Mr.. johnson had little to say about the
Nationals, although he admitted that there
were several deals on which would un-
dOubtedly make the local aggregation
stronger. He said that the reports about
taking the Pittsburg club in the American
League were' all false and likewise the
stories about the formation of a twelve
club organization.
More people will have looked at base
ball games this season when the schedule
is completed than ever before, said Mr..
Johnson, "and this fact alone should be
sufficient to block any efforts toward con-
Soldation.
There is not an American League mag
nate who has mentioned the idea, let alone
favored it, and all reports to that effect
have come from National League clubs.
Every club in our organization will make
money this season, and what more could
be asked?'
Umpire OLoughlin Joined the group while
Mr.. Johnson was talking, and he instantly
became the center of attraction, everybody
being anxious to congratulate the popular
arbitrator over his recent step into mat
rmony. silk will probably be in the
city week or more.
Mr.. Johnson leaves Washington this even
ing for Philadelphia. and will probably

O'Clock, but at that hour the attendants
had not finished putting the track in con-
dltion for the running events, and the
meet did not begin for half an hour later.
When the starters whistle was heard for
the first event the track was very heavy
and no fast time was made in any of the
events. The threatening weather served to
keep away the large attendance whom
those in charge of the meet had hoped
would be present. At the close of the shot
putting events the downpour of rain be
gan and the base ball throwing event.
which as yet had not been carried out took
place in a driving rain. each of the partic-
ipating athletes being thoroughly wet when
they came to the grandstand for the award
of the medal.

been for five innings each were not played
on account of the rain which began at the
