MANAGER KELLY
STILL TIED UP

CHICAGO, December 5-Unless Mike"
Kelly, who was declared ineligible to play
in the American Association, gets a re-
versal of the decision, and furthermore
makes his peace with the st. Louis Ameri-
can League ball club, the former player
manager will be out of organized base ball,
according to an opinion expressed by Presf-
dent Johnson of the American League. 1t
had been thought that the decision only
affected Kelly and the American Associa-
ton, but this view is not taken by Mr.
Johnson. At the same time the head Of the
American League pointed out that Kelly
is still under reserve to the St. Louis club
and is not a free lance as some would
have 1t.
Mr.. Kelly is not a free agent to sign
anywhere he wants." said Mr.. Johnson.
He is under double wraps, so to speak
In the first place l do not think that Kelly
can play anywhere unless he Is reinstated
and should he be declared eligible to play he
still will have to get his release from the
ST. Louis club. The fact that Kelly was
not rendered a contract does not make any
difference. The national commission has
decided that tender of a contract Is not
necessary under certain conditions. He is
reserved just the same

WILD YARN ABOUT
MANAGER HANLON

CINCINNATI, Ohio, December "a wild
rumor reached base ball headquarters yes
terday to the effect that Ned Hanlon would
resign as manager of the Cincinnati Reds
to become Garry Herrmann's candidate
against Harry Pulliam for president Of
the National League. In tie same wind a
story was floating around that Miller Hug
gins had been sold to New York. A sport
ing reporter happened to be in Mr.. Herr
mann's company when the stories reached
his ears, and he dismissed them with a
laugh.
First I have heard of those fairy tales
said he. Both are too absurd to even
deny. Hanlon will be the manager of the
Reds next season, and far as selling
Miller Higgins to New York, that's some
thing I would not do under any circum-
stances. We are too much pleased to be
able to sit back and say we have the best
second baseman in fast company to think
of trying to get rid Of him. Miller Hug
gins is not on the market and no price
can buy him.

STILL TALKING

Jiggs Donahue and a party of Springfield

suit of the worlds series. and 1 was conf
dent from start to finish that the White Sox

not figure where the Cubs had any license
to beat US from the form they showed dur
ing the National League championship
race. 1t is true that they made a runaway
race of it. but the showing they made
against the spit-ball artists and the left
handed twirlers in the games played indi-
Gated that the Cubs could not hit them tc

the Office of the club yesterday afternoon
to the newspaper men present.
AS will be naturally supposed, "Chick'
Stahl, who handled the club last seaso
in the absence of Collins, was the man
announced.
Il stopped at Fort Wayne on my recent
trip west" said Mr.. Taylor, and had q
talk with Stahl, and the matter was
closed. l am very confident that he will
make good. He is liked by all the play
ers, and L am very sure they Will do all
in their power to make the club win

the material we have in hand for next
season and thinks we ought to put very
strong team in the field. He is especially
pleased with young Wagner, the inffelder
we secured from the Newark club"
Mr.. Taylor said an endeavor would be
made to put some deals through at the
meeting in Chicago next week. TT is 10
easy matter to put through a deal now-

IN THE PUBLIC PARKS
DUTIES OF THE WATCH FORCE
MATTER OF PAY.

Colonel Bromwell the engineer officer of
the army, in charge of public buildings and
grounds. and others interested, have re-
newed their efforts at the Capitol to Sc
cure an increase of pay for the park watch
men. The committee in charge of the ap-
preparation bill during the past few days
has heard arguments to the effect that the
force is improperly named, inadequate In
point of numbers and insufficiently paid.
1t Is pointed out that as the members
Of the metropolitan police force, members
Of the fire department and teachers of the
public schools have had their pay increased
the park policemen should receive consid-
Grafton to the extent of being allowed COM
pensation sufficient to overcome the in
creased cost of living.
Among those who are displaying an &C
tive interest in the matter. 1t Is explained,
are majority OF the citizens associations.
Without solicitation. it is said. the asso-
Citations, recognizing what is claimed to be
the justice of the claim, have placed them
selves on record and by resolutions and
otherwise have urged that the recommen-
datons of Colonel Cromwell be adopted
Congress made an appropriation about
two years ago for forty additional men for
the metropolitan police force member
of one Of the citizens associations ex-
was fixed at $50 per month each. The
major and superintendent endeavored for
an entire year to induce forty men to per-
form police duty at that rate of pay. AT
the end of the period mentioned, only about
one-half of the desired number had been
secured. The class of men from whom
policemen are obtained readily earn much
more in other pursuits than the pay that
was offered.
What is Required.
The pay of the park policeman is only
$50 month. The city government re-
quires the street car companies to pay
their crossing officers $75 for great deal
less exacting and laborious duty. The
lowest grade of pay of members of the
metropolitan police force is SIS a month,
and the officers who serve five or six years
faithfully are raised to 500.
LAS Colonel Cromwell says, the Washing
ton park policeman is probably the poor
est paid man in the United States who
has police duty to perform. He has prac-
tically the same duties as the metropoli-
tan police member. The same intelligence
and physical qualifications are required
of him. His moral character must be
good, his discipline Is much the same. He
has as many arrests to make as the aver
as to injury from vicious people the
man doing street duty, and without the
benefits of the pension fund and the pro-
vision for retirement. His duties are more
eXacting, as half his duty hours are spent
in cautioning people about violating the
rules of the park and in looking after
children. He has uniform to buy once
year in order to look neat and yet his pay
is only $50 a month"

States Circuit Judge Lurton handed down a
decision yesterday in the case of the Empire
Circuit Company against the Gans-Nelson
Goldfeld Picture Company, g. L. Richard,
known as "Tex'' Richard, and William No
Ian.
Judge Lurton found that the allegations of
the Empire Circuit Company are true and
that there is in its hands $6,71S, accumulat-
ed as receipts from exhibitions Of the Cans
Nelson fight pictures. He holds that Nolan
is entitled to one-third of the amount and
the company to the remainder.
Richard is entitled to no interest, except
what he may derive through the ownership
of the pictures. The court adds that Rick
ard is not entitled to make any claim
against the funds in question.
The Empire Circuit Company is also or
dered to pay to the parties in interest their
proportionate share of the receipts resulting
from exhibitions given in Baltimore, Phila-
delphia. st. Paul and Duluth given since
the suit was filed. The criminal charge
against Manager Nolan, which had been in
the municipal court here in connection with
this same matter, was dismissed on motion
