FAMOUS CASE MAY
Be RECONSTRUCTED
Drastic Action of g. Month Ago
Does Not Suit the
Magnates.
BY O'LouahlIn.

The annual meeting of the American
association is billed for Saturday, and
possibly Sunday, at Chicago, and there
is every reason to believe that the now
famous Kelley case will come up again
and that the blacklisting Of Kelley
will be reconsidered and reversed.
Joe Cantil Ion will be present at the
meeting and will work to have this
brought about. Had he thought the
matter not settled satisfactorily he
would not have left Chicago for a
hunting trip at the time Of the other
meeting.
There are other reasons why the case
will probably come up. Mike Cantillon
and Armour, as well as Bryce, are said
to have been led to believe that the
action taken, against Kelley would
ISOLATION and would not interfere with
his going to any other club in the
country. Havenor himself did not want
to put Kelley out of baseball save in
the American association. Cantillon will
be in Chicago Saturday and Sunday
working for reopening of the case
and in light of the Ban Johson senti-
ment that Kelley is blacklisted it will
not be strange if the case is reopened.
Lennon, on account of his personal mis-
understandings of Kelley, may object
kins, with a $1,000 suit for back salary
looming up in front Of him, will hardly
want to reconsider.
The sensational interview attributed
to Garry Hermann, in which he was
quoted as roasting Kelley, has been re-
Pudiated by the chairman of the ma
tional commission in personal letter
to the Minneapolis man. Sentiment ap-
pears to be turning toward Kelley.
The widely heralded story that KEEL
ley was remaining in Minneapolis to
break up the American association was
wholly without foundation. Kelley is
remaining here for the simple reason
that this is his residence, and he owns
a home on Lake street. His only action
since his disbarment has been to enter
suit for salary due him for part of
his services in 1906 The placing of a
tax upon professional baseball was the
act of Alderman Schoonmaker,. and he
and Kelley have never met, never so
much as spoken to each other. The story
that Kelley was back of an attempt
to stop Sunday baseball is equally
groundless. He has nothing to do with
the movement, altho the string fends
who have been so busy misrepresent-
ing. Kelley for the year past are still
at it.
There is no use in denying that Min
neapohs baseball fans are hostile to
marked degree against the American
association, and would tomorrow throw
their entire support to an outlaw or
independent league should one enter
the twin cities. There is no soreness at
the Cantillons. There are also a num-
Der OF men in position to make base
ball IN Minneapolis an extremely I'M
profitable venture. Kelley has the
friendship of these men, but is not
working with them in any way. It
will be remembered that the Mime
apolis owners were virtually kicked
out, of the American association, and
what looked to be a profitable invest
ment taken out of their hands. This
sort Of treatment does not beget a
wonderful warmth of friendship on the

JOE CANTILLON TO
WORK FOR KELLEY
part of those kicked toward the kick

part of those kicked toward the kick
ers.
A recapitulation Of what has been
done in the matter of professional
baseball regulation is interesting. A
street has been opened thru the first
base bleacher at Minnehaha park. The
assessment upon the franchise and
plant has been raised from matter
OF a few thousand dollars to more than
$4,000. Professional baseball has been
taxed $500 park, year, OF 81 200
ping all Sunday baseball. There have
been rumors Of condemned grandstands
and bleachers. Letters have been writ
ten by fans to newspapers urging boy
cottlng of professional baseball
to be thrown away. Random is in
ferment of deep-seated anger against
the whole league, and unless something
IS done to remove this feeling the Can
tiilon boys have an unpleasant recep-
ton awaiting them: The anger is not
against Joe and Mike Cantillon, but
Minneapolis club, it's president and
stockholders so much the worst of it.
Minneapolis is probably the most
ciannish city in the United States, bar
ring none. This fact is evidently not
understood by the magnates Of the
American association, whose teams come
here to carry off large sums Of money,
Without Minneapolis, St. Paul could
not have, professional baseball for ten
days, yet Minneapolis is enough of a
ball town to join in any league in the
country without St. Paul, and show a
profit. - -. :
1t is to be hoped that the club own
ers OF the Amer can association will see
light this week. Some of the moves
proposed are i'll advised and unsports-
manlike, but the fact remains that they
are proposed, and SO far everything
proposed has been done. .
The magnates of the American asso-
citation, If they are wise, will lend a
careful ear to what Joe Cantillon will
have to say at the next meeting Of the
association.

to fear that on second thought Squires
has decided that he does not want any
part of Jeffries' game at any price.
Every effort has been made to locate
Squires by cable, and while there is
little doubt that he received at least
one Of the dispatches, SO far he has
given no signs Of life. Jeffries persists
in his emphatic refusal to consider
