JOneS-Pickering Deal
Sets Fans Wondering
What Washington Got
Hard to See Where Cantllon Proited by Trade.
Anderson Wins in Fight for Transfer
What Leagues Are Doing.
By THOMAS S. RICE.

Joe Cantillon has traded Charley
Jones. the crack center fielder Of the
Washington team, for ollie Pickering,
the s. Louis American Outfielder. and
has sold John Anderson 10 Charley
Comlskey. OF the Chicago White SOx.
What do the Washington fans gain
by this deal? That question has been
asked all the morning. and the answer
is hard 70 give.
Jones is probably the best fielding
center fielder in either big league. He Is
the equal in baseball brains OF any
man on the Washington team, and is
one OF the specdiest men in the busi-
ness. HIS batting has been uncertain
For some cause, ne never developed the
u oper method Of attack at bat until
the middle OF last season, when his
batting average suddenly rose from
about .24O TO over $40. II was a squirt
almost unique in the history OF base
ball, and while it lasted Jones was as
valuable as any Outnelder in the busi-
ness.
Jones Should Improve.
Almost as suddenly As It started
Jones slugging streak came 20 an end.
and he fell hard. Why this should hap
pen is impossible 10 say unless Jones
acquired bad habits. he explained his
Improvement with the stick by saying
he had learned to grasp It shorter, so
that he swung It around in time to
chop at fast shoots. and IL was notice
able that his batting style changed.
Next year. with the trick he picked
up last season. Jones should have a
higher batting average than he has
Indications that he lost his speed or
crafuness, therefore Cantillon seems
10 have gotten i'd Of a man who has
lust struck his stride in fast company
for one who has been in the game a
long time. is a fairly good hitter, but
is by no means the fielding star Jones
was.
Jones held out for more salary at
the beginning Of last season, and was
late in reporting st Galveston He has
talked much about retiring from base
ball and going into business as a paper
hanger. which is his trade. I'm Denver.
Recently it was announced he had
formed a business partnership and had
quit the. game. il IS barely possible
Cantuior, had some definite Information
about what Jones was going TO do in
the way Of leaving the diamond. and
traded a goldbrick TO St Louis, which
would IN AXE much laughings in this
neck OF the woods.
Anderson Wins Out.
Cantllon has come off his perch in
the Anders on matter. When the Scan
dinavian Jumped the Washington club
last summer. Cantllon was excessively
fretted ard declared Anderson would
never be SC Id or traded, as IL would
be subversiv Of all discipline 10 al
low a disgrt lntled player to quit and
then gain his point by being transferred
TO another cit Y. That seemed a proper
and reasonable view and there will

Through the whole fight one fact was
