FULTZ WILL PLAY BALL
NEW YORK PLAYER IS EXPECTED
 HERE TONIGHT.
Pitcher Joe Yeager shows Up to Sur prise Om His Associates and "ReguIars" are Expected
 Here Tonight.

With happiness, good humor and con- tentment radiating from his face yes. terday, Clark Grifhth beamed and lbeamed and beamed. Two things hap ing to make Griffith happy. When the manager of the Yankees asked for his mail in the hotel ofhce yesterday morning among the letters was one that brought a smile Of such dazzling magnitude to his face that the diamond of the man behind the counter was made to fade away. In the letter was a contract for 1905 with the chi. rography of one David Fultz attached to 1t. For the last three months Fultz has been making numerous and divers threats in regard to giving up baseoaii for good. Instead of the horsehlde It said, for he intended to be an ardent follower of Blackstone. It seems. however, that he has done some hard thinking over the question whether to in New York. The latter phase of the argument finished first. He has signed his contract and is expected in Mont gomery tonight.
 the Union Railway Station yesterday was Joe Yeager, pitcher and utility man. It was a great surprise to every one of the New York gang except Grif- filth when Yeager showed up at the signed him, but it seems that this astute individual had landed Yeager some time ago.
 In 1903 Yeager was with Barrow's Detroit team, and he will be remem- bered by local fans as playing third when the Tigers began their spring games at Athletic Park.
 The Ganzel matter has not been set tied, although the player cannot go to Grand Rapids without Grifith's con sent, and nothing has been heard up to date of Chase. the new man signed for first. In case neither of these men show up Anderson will probably be taken out of the outfield and put on the initial bag. Yeager taking his place in the outfield.
 The entire gang of regulars are ex- Railway train tonight. They are: Catchers McGuire and Kleinow; Con- roy. third base; Williams. second base: Kid Elberfield, short, and outfielders Dave Fultz and Anderson.
 Willie Keeler, the third member of the outfield. Is coaching the Harvard baseball squad with Jaek Chesbro, and will hardly reach Montgomery before Wednesday of next t, %eek, %eeah.,, MaireT sanad at West Point, but he is expected any day
 iKid" E1berfield will be remembered by local fans. He played short for Barrow's Detroits when they were in Montgomery two years ago and the fast, aggressive. scrappy style of play he used will always be remembered in Montgomery. This will be the second time that Yeager and Elberfield have played in Montgomery.
 The hardest work that the pitchers have had yet was given them by Man ager Griffith yesterday afternoon, each of them being kept in the box for f1f- teen minutes. Young Jim Whitley let loose some speed that made people stare. The balls shot over the plate with whiskers on them and they were pretty hard to hit at that.
