MAPS FAIL TO LAND STAHL
Ex-Manager Refuses to Play with
Cleveland Club
Deal Had Been Practically Closed
When Player Announced That He
Would Remain in Chicago.
Special to The Washington Herald.

Special to The Washington Herald
Chicago. Aug. E.-It was learned to-
day that President Sommers, of the Cleve-
land ball club, made every effort last
week 10 obtain Jake Stahl, the former
Washington manager, to play first base
for the Maps. in place Of George StovaIl,
who was under suspension.
Stahl is under reserve by the Chicago
White Sox, and the negotiations were con-
Quoted between Sommers and Comiskey.
It is understood that the Cleveland mag
nate offered a large sum and a pitcher if
Comiskey would turn StahI over to the
Maps.
Finally an agreement was reached, but
all negotiations were broken off when
stahl notified Sommers that under no
conditions would he don a Cleveland uni
form. Stahl. it is understood, wants TO
so TO Boston, and unless he can play
with the Pilgrims he is willing to stick
to his South Chicago semi-pro. team.
which is providing a good financial propo-
sition for the ex-manager of the Ma
tionals.

TO START At ONCE
POSt-SeasOn Series Will Be
Opened Wednesday.
PLAY FIVE GAMES THIS WEEK
Commission Intends 10 Put on a
DOubIe-header Saturday, and the
VIII Meet In a LATER set TO De-
eide the Championship OF District.

The post-season series for the amateur
baseball championship OF the District will
be opened at National Park Wednesday
afternoon.
The commission approved the report OF
the committee in charge Of the schedule.
which was to start the series wednes-
day. In order that five games may be
played this week.
Treasury and Trinity viii probably open
the season Wednesday. and Aloysius and
Bethany viii meet Thursday. There viii
be another game Friday. probably be
tween Treasury and AIoysius. and It Is
the intention of the commission TO play a
double-header Saturday if the Southern
Railway team. which has an option or
the park for that date. viii agree TO
waiver in view of the Importance of the
championship series.
The arranging for the dates was made
by drawing the names OF the clubs from
hat. so that no team would have an ad-
vantage over another.
Although the Sunday School and De-
partmental leagues were not represented.
1t is understood that they will abide by
the dCLioHS OF Ane commission.
Those present at The meeting of the
commission yesterday were John Hadley
Doyle, president; z. F Dove. manager Of
the Trinity team of the Marquette
League; James A. OShea. president Of
Quinn. representing the AlOysius team OF
the Capital City League.
After the five games this week II Is not
of fha
again until September. 3.
Every Team VIII Meet.
The idea Of the commission is to have
every team meet the other teams, and the
winners of the games this week will play
the deciding contests when the Washing
ton club is away on a short trip, thereby
having the series completed by Septen-
Der Il
The commission has ordered that A list
Of names of the players Of each team be
submitted TO the commission by Tuesday
at o'clock. when the body will meet
in the Office Of James O'Shea. At which
time the commission will pass upon the
eligibility OF the players, the decision of
the commission on this point to be final
Although no decision on the matter
--ae ~ OCNlA dAiAAOuiiLGug Is uQGGIStGQQ
that an agreement has been reached on
the subject of eligibility. and that all of
the players who are bona fide members
Of the winning teams will be allowed to
participate In the series.
II is understood that the Capital City
League has taken the stand that the
rules which govern the eligibility of the
players to participate IN the champion
ship series be the same as governed this
question last year. in effect that all play
ers be required 10 have participated in
at least five games, except pitchers and
catchers, who will be required to have
taken part in at least three.
The commission win In all probability
present the members Of the winning team
In the series with watch fobs or some
other trophy.
Despite the efforts of certain powers TO
hold to the commission TO play for a Ger
tain cup. there is every indication that
the series will be a success.

DR.. William Grant.
ON REGISTRATION COMMITTEE
Washington Man Is Familiar with
Workings of Eligibility Board and
Local Followers of the A. A. L. Is
This City Is Entitled to the Omee.

The suggestion IN these columns yester-
day that Dr. D. E Wiber is the logical
candidate for chairman Of the registra-
ton committee of the South Atlantic As
sociation Of the A. A. L. was well re-
ceived by amateur athletic followers.
The exclusive announcement III The
Washington Herald that DR. William
Grant is no longer a member Of the COM
mittee was. Of course. a distinct surprise
to all those who are interested in the
work Of the union IN the South. and In
Washington in particular.
Although the news has not yet been
announced in the Baltimore press. it is
understood that heated session of the
registration committee was held there
Thursday night. and the decision in re-
gard 10 DR.. Grant was arrived AT at that
time. 1t is said that DR.. Grant has re-
ceived a good offer from a firm in Phila-
delphia and that he VIII leave Baltimore
in order TO accept the new position.
Familiar with Affairs.
Having worked with Grant FOR more
than a year, DR.. Wiber is well acquainted
with ali of the details of the registration
committee, and, as he IS decidedly pop
ular with followers of clean sport in
Washington. the association could make
no more popular choice than the local
man. DR.. Wtber is. in a sense. not can
didate for the position, as he realizes that
It will require considerable time to con-
duct the affairs as they should be con-
Quoted, but il is believed that he will be
willing to accept the place.
In view of the remarkable strides which
the A. a. L. has made in this city In the
past three years. there is little question
that Washington. for the first time, is
entitled to the Office of chairman of the
most important committee in the associa-
ton. and the consensus Of opinion among
local enthusiasts is that DR.. Wiber is the
man who is entitled TO the honor
