BY Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-one of the
largest exchanges of players ever re-
corded in major league baseball was ell
fected at the conclusion of the National
league meeting here today when the New
York National league team exchanged
Frank Bowerman, catcher; Cecil Fer
guson, pitcher; Daniel McGann, first
baseman; George Browne, right fielder,
and either William Dahlen, shortstop, or
John Hannifan, substitute, for Fred
Tenney, first baseman; Thomas Need
ham. catcher and. Alfred Bridwell,
shortstop, all of the Boston National
league team. The exchange was enected
by John j. McGraw, manager OF the new
York club, and Joseph Kelley, the new
manager of the Boston club,

who were in the old aggregation. sew
eral of the pitchers, including Mathowson
and nffctffiiIIiffiiittyy and Catcher Bresnahan,
remain. and of these it has been said
that McGinnity was likely to be DIS
placed. There has also been some talk
of trading Bresnahan, but In view OIL
today's changes the plans regarding MIN

While many baseball enthusiasts Will
figure that Boston got the better OF the

show that he had the better of the deal:
1t is more than likely that internal
dissensions were largely responsible for

TRIPLETS ARE BORN
IN HOME OF POVERTY
All Are Boys and Their Combined
Weight Is Twenty-Five Pounds.
Neiehbors Come to Aid
of Family

NEW YORK, Dec. 13.-In circum-
stances, far from being an argument
against race suicide, three boys were
born to Mrs. Max Roseman yesterday.
The advent of the youngsters found
the father, who is tailor, out of work
and with the family larder empty ex-
cept for the small donations of neigh
bors. Despite these untoward circum-
stances the three infant RosemanS are
well and able to cry as vigorously as
might be expected from twenty-five
pounds of baby, the combined weight
of the trio.
Roseman lives at No. 240 Clinton
street He has been in America for five
years and did well enough at his trade
to bring his wife and three children
from Russia a year and half ago. A
few weeks ago he lost his job, and
since then the family has existed as
precariously as few, even in the tenn
ing lower east side, are forced to live
Nevertheless, when a boy was born
yesterday, there was rejoicing in the
Roseman family, although 1t was not
entirely clear how the augmented fam
ily was to be supported. DIR. Meyer
Schwartz, of No. 213 Henry street who
was called, noted the condition of the
family and began to make arrange
ments for lettering it. Four hours
later before he could put the machin
cry of charity in motion, he was sum-
moned again to the Roseman home
This time he-found even more need of
his services in welcoming into the
world two more babies, both boys.
BY this time the news began to sift
through the neighborhood. The women
who came in found Rose, the S-year- old
daugter of the family, the only nurse
in attendance and doing her childish
best to minister to her mother and the
three late arrivals. DR.. Schwartz then
communicated with charitable insti-
tuition and. between it's agents and the
neighbors the mother and children
were cared for properly. The father
has redoubled his efforts in seeking en-
ployment.
