wind from the southwest and were all
over the front of the buildings and
covered the front of motives

and were so numerous that people
could scarcely keep them out of their
eyes when on the street. as the in

BALTIMORE SECURES CONN.
Star Of Johnstown Team Signs With
Eastern League Champions.

BALTIMORE, Md, January 14-Presi-
dent Hanlon of the local Eastern League
team is not worrying over the loss of
Outfielder Hoey, who has been sold to St.
Paul by the Boston Americans. for he
secured the signature Of Bert Conn to
play with the Orioles this year, the con-
tract being signed December g.
The fact that Conn has become an
Oriole has been kept a secret for more
than month at his request. The way it
came about is this: Every effort was being
made by President Hanlon to get the true
line on Hoey. Along that line letter
was written to President Carpenter of the
Trl-State League, in which Hoey was
last season, asking Information from him
The reply, while favorable to Hoey, sug-
gested that even a better man could be
secured in Conn, whom Johnstown was
willing to sell. Johnstown's reason was
that Conn was hishsalaried man and
worth it,, The Tri-State League has
adopted drastic salary limit this sea-
son. which would compel JohnstoWn to
offer Conn much less salary.
knowing that that would never do, the
only course was to dispose of him.
Conn was well known in this city for
he was one of the best players on Jack
Dunn's champion Providence team of 1905
Dunnie was on the odds with President
Hanlon. when the Conn matter came up,
and the outcome was that President Ham
lon entered into negotiations with Johns
town himself, resulting in agreement upon
the purchase price and an invitation to
Conn to come over to Baltimore from
Philadelphia, where he lives, and talk
business. Conn came about noon De-
cember 3, had a talk with President Han
Ion, and affixed his signature to an Oriole
contract.
Where Conn will play has not yet been
determined. He played fiji st base for
Prevalence, and played it well. He had
been an outfelder before that and was.
an excellent outfielder. Last year he cap
tanned the Johnstown team and PLAYED
siXty-seven games at second base-a posi-
ton he had never before essayed. He
led all of the Tri-State second basemen
and maintained 1902 batting average.
