STAHL IN BOSTON,.
Will Stay at Hub Until Gen. Tay'or's
Return From the West.

Boston. Jan. 11.-"Chick" Stahl, man.
| ager of the Boston Americans, came
oyer from New York yesterday with
| Treasurer Hugh McBreen. Stahl will
remain in Boston several days. until
the arrival of President John l. Tay-
| lor from the West, and will then re-
| turn To his home in Fort Wayne to get
| into condition for the Southern trip.
| which will begin in n little over two
| months.
Chick is looking in splendid condi-
ton. He weighs about 100 pounds. only
a little more than when he finished
last season. Stahl didn't have much
| news to hand out to the newspaper
nen who called.
"The only thing now that | know
| about" said he, sis the fact that we
have secured another pitcher. He is
| Thomas Railing. a lcf;-hander, who
playeu with the Dallas club in the Tex
as League last season. He had been
| beating all the big teams that visited
Dallas. and thought he was worth more
| money than the club was handing him.
He is n young looking fellow. but a six
| .poter and looks like a conner"
Mr McBrcen received a letter from
President Taylor, who is still in Cali
| fornia. but will probably start for home
| today. on his way to Boston he will
stop off at Chicago to see Ban Johnson,
after which he will go to Eikhart, Ind,
| to see Lou Criger.
Then he will write Uncle Cy Young
| ID meet him in Cleveland. and after
that stop off at Syracuse to see Bill
| Dinneen. In all proba bility he will re-
turn with the signed contracts of all
| these players.
Before reaching Chicago Taylor will
make an appointment to meet Dennis
| Sullivan. tie outfelder secured from
Minneapolis. Sullivan lives in Vermil-
